Chapter-3: skeleton monster, soul stone
After seeing her status she did not immediately move instead she took off the baggage she is wearing and took out a note pad and a pen.
She looked like she is in a stone cave with carved passages.
She is standing at one open space that is circular with a staircase before.
But now the stair case is gone and there is nothing in the room.
The cave has dim lightning and this lightning was from the glowing plant vines at the top of the cave.
Unfortunately she is not tall enough to touch the top of the cave that is over a meter above her head.
Also these glowing plant vines did not have any use other than this dim glow.
As long as they are broken from the plant they would stop glowing.
She drew a circular shape in the notepad and then started to walk out of the room into the cave path.
It is a simple straight like with an occasional big rocks hanging from the top of from below.
While walking she came across two small entrances one on the left and one on the right.
She did not enter them but continued to walk to the end of the tunnel.
Here she found another big opening with circular space and there are stairs leading down into darkness.
There is also a treasure box in this place that looked like it was made of wood placed at once corner.
She took out her flash light to check the situation but did not touch the wooden treasure box.
She placed the bog baggage here first.
Then she walked back noting down the things in the map.
Then she came to the two entrances one left and one on the right.
She chose the left one first.
As she walked in she came to a dead end.
She marked it and returned back to take the right turn to check the other entrance.
As usually she walked slowly holding the iron rod while keeping the note book in her pocket.
When she came to the end she saw an open room like area and there are bone creaking sounds inside.
As soon as she looked she saw a skeleton with one of its eyes glowing red walking around the big room in irregular pattern.
To Mohini it showed the words "Skeleton monster level 1" on the top of the head of the monster including a health bar with "10/10"
Mohini waited on the side while the monster did not notice her yet.
She has experience in this kind of thing.
Beating the skeleton of piercing attacks is useless to defeat a skeleton.
Even with a gun if you did not it its head then the attack is useless.
The skull of the skeleton monster should be cracked open to kill it.
Skeleton monster is very low grade monster and some might have helmets called skeleton soldier.
The skeleton in front of Mohini has strong strength and a punch can cause damage.
Its fingers can pierce human body.
But, it is not that strong either humans can fight back to kill it.
In the past life she was frightened by this skeleton and ran away from here.
She was able to come to the stairs leading to the second floor and quickly stepped on them.
So she has zero fighting experience at that time.
Later she has to fight to survive.
Even though she came to a different profession but she still has some experience in fighting.
She was betrayed many times along the way and she will not be stupid enough to fall into their traps.
Actually she would have entered the dungeon on the second day.
She did not enter because of the encouragement of her best friend or to be precise her hidden relative cousin Nisha that discouraged her.
She actually became an adventurer making Mohini's life miserable.
Mohini found the opportunity when the skeleton monster is going the other direction and ran behind its back to land a heavy hit of the iron rod on its head.
This one hit cracked the skull of the skeleton but it did not die yet.
Its health dropped by half.
Mohini licked its leg bones before it could react making it fall forward and landed a second hit on its head.
The skull has finally cracked open completely and the monster died.
Usually monster might drop something when it dies.
But low level monsters rarely drop something.
She is in luck and a red gem was dropped from the skull of the skeleton while it turned into dust.
Usually the monsters killed in the dungeons would disappear after they are killed.
If the monsters are outside the dungeon like surrounding the village they would leave their corpse but they will not drop anything.
The red gem that fell is glowing with a circular beam showing that it is a drop item.
She quickly collected it and then checked her status.
She got 20 experience points for killing this skeleton monster.
But it is still a long way to reach the level 2.
She then checked what this gem is.
There is only "????" on it without a name or information.
There is no name for this gem but based on her understanding of various things it is called "soul stone.
It is the lowest grade red soul stone.
This can be used by summoners to summon creatures to fight for them.
It has other uses that she doesn't know about.
She has successfully identified the item and the previous "????" has changed to soul stone.
If she can identify few more things she can gain the skill to identify the things.
She was surprised and happy about this.
She carefully put the gem stone in her pocket and moved around the room to find another treasure box.
She did not touch it to open it instead she used the iron rod to break open the top of the box.
