Chapter 4: The Dungeon and a cabin
It was in the afternoon and I just walked into the dungeon. There were people in teams and dressed all fancy. They had animal people, Elf's, humans, Amizons..ect. I went down to the first floor, because I want to see how far I can get and I need to know where I can get the most DP in the dungeon.
I went to the first floor and there were some ant like creatures. One was coming at me from the front and I just stepped on it. It burst into a black fog and the crystal dropped.
I picked it up and the crystal started loosing color. I felt the energy being sucked into my body and making me gain more power. It wasn't anything to care about though since it was small.
I then felt a lot more presences. It was a bunch of ants rushing to me. I used [Scan] and saw that there was most like 210 ants coming at me.
I didn't feel pressured though. I wanted to test how good one skill in particular is in situations like this. I got into a quick draw stance like I was holding a katana and the ants came running to me from a single hole.
'Can't expect them to be smart.' I sighed. When they were close enough I pulled my ninjatō out from my inventory and with a strong upward slash the air was split and traveled to the ants.
[Hundred Slashes]
My arm and sword blurred and the ants tried to circle me but they couldn't since my slashes were mowing them down. It would be nice if I missed, but the first slash was locked to the neck.
The rest were just onslaughts of slashes aimed across the body. The ants were cleared out within 10 minutes and I had a pile of crystals around me.
I wasn't going to sit here and take my time. I wanted to just get the energy, but how?
[Perhaps you could ask me]
"...Do you know how I'm supposed to get all of them in one swoop?"
[You need to extend your your Demonic Power into the crystals and pull the energy in the crystal out and into you.]
'Thank you Eve.'
[Your welcome Kyo]
I then put my hands out and let some power flow into my fingers. I then made the energy like strings and they started going into the crystal pulling the energy out.
The crystal had a murky purple like color energy. This time I could feel the boost in energy better. It was nice, but not enough. After that I went to the second floor and just repeated what I did on the first.
The whole time I was wondering why the party attacked me on the first floor. I only killed one and they just all came from nowhere. I shrugged it off and just kept going.
***
<15th floor>
I was fighting a Minotaur and it was just swinging wildly. I didn't have my ninjatō out and was just slightly dodging it's swings with the club.
I looked at it calmly in the eyes and that seem to enrage it more. It stopped and roared hitting it's chest.
*ROOOOOOAAAAAR*
"Your a bull not a gorilla. Idiot." I said calmly. It rushed at me faster and two more Minotaurs came from around a corner. They rushed me as well.
One came on my right and was bringing its club down to my head. I jumped to the left and had to duck, because the first Minotaur swung its club horizontally.
As I was crouched down both of the other Minotaurs were going to hit me with their clubs. I stood up and with both of my index fingers, I stopped their attacks.
The first Minotaurs club slammed down on my head and the sound echoed in the dungeon. I let it hit me and the cub snapped in two. I pulled both of the other Minotaurs clubs along with then and they hit heads hard.
I didn't let them recover though and started pushing their heads together. They were screaming and pulling away, but I was vastly stronger than them.
I kept pushing and their heads easily exploded into mush and bones. My face was covered in the blood and it was disgusting. I thought they would just go to smoke , but they got all this blood on me.
I let the bodies fall and before they turned to smock I started stomping and kicking the bodies mumbling "stupid" constantly.
The first Minotaur was watching this and wanted to retreat, but I turned to look at him. I dead panned in his direction and he froze. I slowly walked over the nice sized crystals and asked it a question.
"Did you think I would let you leave?" It did something unexpected. It smiled and scratched its head like it was embarrassed.
'Anime Logic.' I thought to myself and punched the air. The air pressure busted a whole in its body and it turned to smoke dropping a crystal.
I used my lightning to make all the blood on me turn to ashes and disappeared. I sighed and sucked up the energy. I then started walking back down to the entrance ignoring all the murmurs and looks from people.
When I left it was sundown and I needed a place to sleep, so I went over to the guild hall and looked for someone. I saw that to the far right there was a counter with a human girl.
Her counter was free and I walked up to her. She raised an eyebrow as I stepped in front of her desk.
"How can I help you?" She asked. Her voice was laced with curiosity just like her expression.
"I want a house, preferably a cabin. I don't care about the price, but do you have any?"
"Are you sure? Are you an adventurer?" She asked.
"Yeah. I just want to live alone for a while."
"Oh..ok, well these are the places we have that match your description." She said. Her voice was staggered though.
I looked through them and found a nice sized cabin. It was secluded just how I wanted.
"I'll take that one." I said pointing to the cabin that was priced at 18000 veil.
"Are you su-." I just took out the money and she got someone to come to take it. She gave me a map and I left.
'How many damn times does someone have to say they have it for people to listen?' I thought. At this point I'm annoyed beyond belief. I just want to be alone.
[You okay partner]
'Yeah. People are just more annoying than I previously thought.'
[Its normal since you've only been with me and no human contact]
'Do you have a physical body?' I asked curiously.
[...yes]
'Then what's your real name?'
[Lilith]
'Like Lucifers daughter Lilith, also why did you let me name you?'
[Satan said it's something a lot of reincarnaters like and no not his daughter, but it's spelled the same.
'I'd rather you just be you instead of letting me change your whole personality.
[...]
'Lilith'
[I was just surprised. Satan said usually people would rather the system be just the system without a personality.]
'Some people do, but I'd like to have someone with a personality to talk to. I would have definitely went power hungry without you.'
[So your not power hungry now?]
'You think so?'
[I feel so]
I rolled my eyes with a small smile under my mask and continued to follow the map.

I found the cabin and it looked like some work could have been done on it. It didn't look exactly like the picture, but it could work.
'Can you buy me earth magic and wood magic?'
[Yup]
[-500SP]
'Alright let's get started.' I said and then with a single hand sign three of my clones started adding on to the cabin and fixing it up.
[Here I thought you would try something]
'Why do you sound pouty? Did you want me to do something?' I asked. Usually her voice is like a mature secretary, but now it's soft with a hint of playfulness.
[I thought you would make the house some mansion.]
'That would've been too much. I just want a comfortable place to live.'
I then made two more shadow clones to practice mastering my wood and earth magic.
"What should I do now."
""Help Us!"" All my clones yelled at me in my direction. I was stunned.
[hehe]
'Your laugh is really cute.' I said. It short, but worth listening to.
There was silence.
'Maybe I should find a hobby.'
