I looked at my Stats and realized something was wrong. I need more perception. So far, I haven't been caught off guard by any monsters, but lacking perception is dangerous.
This status is something that doesn't exist in Danmachi. It will be very useful.
Speaking of which, I made the same mistake when I played as an assassin. I just put all my points into speed and nothing into perception or stealth. Most of the time, when I was attacked by surprise, I got killed.
I don't think I should make the same mistake here since I could die.

"Put 15 points into perception. Bringing it to 20 will improve my perception a lot."
[Your perception is now at 20!]
"Great. Put the rest of the points into agility."
[Your agility is now at 54!]
"I need to increase my Endurance a bit more. It isn't good right now. Now let's go out and see how people react to my new look."
I left my room feeling more confident than ever with my sword at my waist. I walked to the tower, feeling eyes on me, not just from women but also from some men.
I'm attracting more attention than I expected.
I reached the tower and immediately noticed everyone becoming noisy.
"Hey, look at that guy. Isn't he handsome?"
"Why don't you go talk to him?"
"No, I'm shy. Why don't you try talking to him and introduce me?"
"If I try talking to him, I might end up falling for him, better not."
"Then I'll try."
I heard the conversation of two nearby women, and the corners of my mouth instinctively lifted. For some reason, I feel good hearing this. I waited for the woman to approach, but before that could happen, another woman stepped forward.
Seeing another woman prettier than her approaching, she turned away, dejected. She returned to her friend's side, lamenting. The woman who approached was indeed more beautiful, but I don't know her.
She was a human woman with red hair and large breasts—an extra character but very beautiful.
She's not the type of woman I want in my harem, but I wouldn't mind sleeping with her.
"Hello, may I know your name? I noticed you were alone. Would you like to join our group?" She asked. Her brown eyes were shining. The other two people in her group were also women.
One was short and busty, and the other was tall and flat-chested. It was an interesting contrast.
"Sorry, I prefer to explore the dungeon alone." I declined the invitation. "But we can go out for a drink tonight. If you'd like, you can find me here at night, what do you think?"
Upon hearing me, she was disappointed.
"No, it's okay..." She approached her friends. "He prefers to explore the dungeon alone." The woman said to her two friends, and they walked away.
Did I just get rejected? I guess that happens even if you're attractive.
I won't be able to get every woman.
I sighed and moved on to enter the dungeon. Today, I decided to go to the 5th floor.
I quickly advanced through the first and third floors, not caring much about gaining experience points. I want to get to the 5th floor because the environment will change, and the monsters will get stronger.
Even though they are the same monsters that appear on the 4th floor...
'I feel like this will change the experience points gain. It makes sense that experience points gained would change when I reach different areas of the dungeon.'
I've only explored above the third floor, so I was cautious when I reached the 4th floor. Fortunately, it wasn't hard. And during my exploration, my [Dark Magic] skill leveled up.
Now it's level 3.
The problem is that now the monsters are also stronger. The magic I'm using is stronger now, but I can't kill 4th-floor monsters with a single attack. But if I use two attacks, it's possible.
When I hit a goblin twice in the head, it died. Although using the sword is faster, it's useful.
And I learned to use magic to blind my enemies.
I found a group of three goblins and used my magic to create a black mist that covered their vision. The goblins started making strange sounds and panicking as they searched for me.
Since I could see, I could deal with them efficiently.
The goblins swung their wooden clubs randomly, even hitting each other. I approached each one from behind and used my knife to hit their heads, killing them all instantly.
I won't always be able to do this. It's cool to blind the monsters and kill them stealthily.
Oh, and my perception helps a lot with this. Now, I can sense monsters meters away, even with walls in the way. I have time to prepare for an attack.
I wasn't surprised by an attack even once on the 4th floor.
"But down there, there are monsters that are very good at catching adventurers by surprise. That's why I have to increase my perception more and more."
Now let's go to the 5th floor. I'm tired of hunting here. I even reached 50 experience points and gained one point.
My bag was full of items and magic stones.
After some time, I finally managed to reach the 5th floor. My first surprise was how beautiful the floor was, mostly because of the light green walls.
The dungeon's structure was also different. The "corridors" were bigger and felt a bit more humid.
I walked for a few minutes, looking for enemies, but only found a person's body. Yes, it's a person's body. It was a man. He wore light leather armor and had a sword in his hand.
He was near the passage to the 4th floor, so how come no one found him?
'He has a blade wound on his back. Was it a monster, or was it a person?' It's rare for people to kill each other inside the dungeon.
Was he alone?
I looked around while raising my senses to the maximum.
"There are some presences nearby."
