[BUFF ADDED]
[+76 HP, +76 MANA, +7.6% STRENGTH STAT, +7.6% MANA STAT]
[DURATION: 1 HR]
I ate the food Shina prepared and got the buff, surprisingly, Shina improved his craft!
//
An hour passed and my lunch time was finished, half time hunting started! After reaching 4,000 slime kills, I leveled up one-time and voila! Another vortex appeared and my theory has been proved!
[WARNING! DUNGEON DETECTED!]
[ENTER?]
Of course, I did.
And so, the same monsters attacked me.

[CONGRATULATIONS! YOU DEFEATED A DUNGEON!]
[REWARDS:]
[+500 EXPERIENCE POINTS]
[x1 DIRK KNIFE]
[x15 SLIME CORE]
[x20 SLIME CORE FRAGMENT]
[x90 SLIME]
Damn. No key this time around? Wait, [DIRK KNIFE]? I checked the information of this item.
[Dirk Knife]
[TYPE: WEAPON]
[LEVEL: 13]
[DAMAGE: 50]
[DESCRIPTION: A KNIFE TO USE WITH LEFT HAND. CAN BE USED TO PARRY ATTACKS.]
Oh shi~! 50 damage!? I better use this weapon... but... I will not earn any proficiencies for [SWORD MASTERY (PASSIVE)] skill. Sigh. I better sell this stuff instead and earn money, then buy a new sword. I'll check the price in the market later. I transferred the [SLIME] loots to Jason to accomodate the [DIRK KNIFE] into my 10 slotted inventory.
I exited the dungeon and only less than an hour passed since and I still have an hour to hunt more slimes!
//
1,200 slimes were hunted and I'm done for the day!
I earned 2,400 experience points, and leveled up to level 16. Then, 1,200 proficiency points for [SWORD MASTERY (PASSIVE)] and few other loots, of course, the usual ones. I got back to my home and rested after.

Sunday came and my new day of hunting arrived. I did the same usual routine, hunt slimes in the field outside the southern gate.
From 6 in the morning to 12 in the afternoon, I only hunted slimes. That was 6,600 slimes! I earned 13,200 experience from this and leveled up to level 17! As for proficiency, it was 6,600 points, and then the usual loots.
When afternoon arrived, I ate the lunch Shina prepared and got the usual buffs. And from 1 in the afternoon to 6 in the evening, I went back to hunting slimes. In between that time, I got another dungeon appearing again, which I defeated in less than an hour. In total, I killed 4,500 regular slimes and earned 9,000 experience points and leveled up once more to level 18!
As for the dungeon, I earned the following:
[+500 EXPERIENCE POINTS]
[x30 SLIME CORE]
[x55 SLIME CORE FRAGMENT]
[x90 SLIME]
I did not get the [POISON SLIME CORE] or a [DIRK KNIFE]. I just shook my head due to my luck this day. Thankfully, I leveled up once more due to the added experience points from this dungeon, I became level 19. I earned 485 experience points plus the dungeon reward of 500 experience points.
I added them 15 stat points to strength, agility and mana.
As for the skill [SWORD MASTERY (PASSIVE)], I earned a total of 6,807 proficiency points. For loots, the usual.
I left the southern gate's field and went back to my home.
//
I sat on the sofa and opened the market app in my phone to check the prices of swords above level 10. Currently, I have around 10 million credits, but I don't need to use them all up though.
As I scrolled the market app, I saw what I was looking for and I quickly tapped the "Buy" and "Check Out" buttons.
[RAPIER]
[TYPE: WEAPON]
[LEVEL: 14]
[DAMAGE: 70]
[DESCRIPTION: A SWORD THAT WAS DESIGNED FOR THRUSTING, WITH AN ELEGANT CROSSGUARD.]
[PRICE: 20,000 CREDITS]
[CHAIN MAIL]
[TYPE: ARMOR]
[LEVEL: 10]
[DEFENSE: 20]
[DESCRIPTION: METAL ARMOR FOR GOOD DEFENSE.]
[PRICE: 10000 CREDITS]
[MANTEAU CLOAK]
[TYPE: ARMOR]
[LEVEL: 10]
[DEFENSE: 10]
[DESCRIPTION: A STURDY CLOAK FOR ADDITIONAL DEFENSE.]
[PRICE: 20000 CREDITS]
[IRON BOOTS]
[TYPE: ARMOR]
[LEVEL: 10]
[DEFENSE: 15]
[DESCRIPTION: STURDY METAL BOOTS FOR DEFENSIVE PURPOSES.]
[PRICE: 15000 CREDITS]
As for the accessories, I didn't change them. All in all, these equipment never made a dent to my account. I laughed out loud thinking about it. I'm freaking rich.
*Ehem*
As for the [DIRK KNIFE] that I looted, I asked Jason to place it for sale in the market app. I didn't think about it too much as I knew it won't sell for much.
I closed the app and my mind started to automatically think about the mission related to "+30" synthesis. I have 977 [SLIME CORE] so I could definitely waste it as much as I wanted to.
Hmm... Should I? Hmm... No. I'm going to wait for the new armor and synthesize that instead. Goodbye my [ADVENTURER'S SUIT]!
After deciding what to do next with the [SLIME CORE], I ended the day and slept for tomorrow's new week of the class, and my most awaiting day, the "Fahramis" day. Sigh.
//
"Fahramis" day came and of course, I defeated him again. What did he expect? I've never went easy with my skill grinding as well as leveling up. When they heard me saying "Level 19", all of their jaws dropped hard. I laughed at their expressions in my thoughts and just showed my unsurprising face. As for Fahramis, he was shocked, he was only level 18, I've surpassed his level in just a few weeks! His expression of "How" was written all over his face. As for how I defeated him, well, it was the exact same way I did the last time. I also laughed at his unconscious expression when I hit his nape all over again.
Teacher Felix looked at me when he picked up Fahramis with a grateful look. I knew he knew how much I pulled out my power when attacking Fahramis.
As for the whole week, Fahramis did not look at me in the face whenever we meet each other. He always avoid me and I knew the reason, ain't it obvious?
Aside from that, I added another 1,000 sword swings from the already 10,000 sword swings per hour. For five days, I made 330,000 sword swings for this week. And that I leveled up my skill [SWORD MASTERY (PASSIVE)] up to level 76!
[Skills Tab:]
[Sword Mastery (PASSIVE)] [Level 76] [Proficiency Points: 27,527/38,000]
[Basic Sword Skill, increases mastery of the sword]
[+0.77% Damage using swords]
[+0.77% Sword Skill (ACTIVE) damage]
With that, my damage increased to 89.51!
When the weekend came, I did the same slime hunting alone, but with my new equipment!
The equipment effect made great improvements on my defense and offense!
[Equipment Tab:]
[Head [1]: Slime Hat]
[Head [2]: -]
[Head [3]: -]
[Full Body: Chain Mail (Synthesized: +30)]
[Right Hand: Rapier]
[Left Hand: -]
[Garment: Manteau Cloak]
[Footwear: Iron Boots]
[Accessory [1]: Ring of Defense]
[Accessory [2]: Ring of Defense]
[Effects: +113.70 Defense (+45 – Armor Defense) (+40 – Accessory Defense) (+28.70 – Strength Stat Effect), +173.15 Damage (+70 Weapon Damage) (+53.90 – Skill Effect) (+8.25 – Title Effect) (+41 – Strength Stat Effect), +30% Damage Absorption from Slime-Type Monsters]
You may be wondering about that "+30" synthesize number, well, I just wasted 20 [SLIME CORE] to get that number! Hahaha! And thus, I completed one of the missions and earned 6,000 system points! I now have 9,150 system points! I'm no eligible for buying either the intermediate-grade proficiency or experience potion. As for the [SLIME CORE FRAGMENT], I synthesized them and got 44 [SLIME CORE].
However, another mission replaced it. It was never ending!
[NEW MISSION ALERT!]
[MISSION 21: SYNTHESIZE CORES WITH EQUIPMENT TO +40]
[REWARD: +8000 SYSTEM POINTS]
Sigh.
For Saturday and Sunday, I killed a total of 26,400 [SLIME] in the southern field and encountered two slime dungeons, which never produced my expected loots such as the [DIRK KNIFE] or the [MAJOR DUNGEON KEY FRAGMENT]. Anyway, the total earnings I got from the two days were:
1. 52,800 Experience Points (Southern Field)
2. 1,970 Experience Points (Slime Dungeons)
3. 26,503 [SWORD MASTERY (PASSIVE)] skill proficiency points. (For both areas)
4. 415 [SLIME CORE]
5. 2,700 [SLIME CORE FRAGMENT]
6. 18,520 [SLIME]
7. 26.4 School Points.
Due to these gains, I leveled up to level 24! And thus, completing another mission! I earned another 2,000 experience points and two new missions. Sigh.
[NEW MISSION ALERT!]
[MISSION 22: REACH LEVEL 40]
[REWARD: +10,000 EXP]
[MISSION 23: GET A CLASS!]
[REWARD: +1,000 EXPERIENCE POINTS]
Yeah, an 8 year old kid with a class, how genius! NOT! I rather not make waves and pull all the attention of my family's enemies on me! I have no intention to inherit the title from father too! I rather give it to my eldest brother, he rather be great at it. What I want is to complete the [MAJOR DUNGEON KEY FRAGMENT]!
As for Fahramis, heh~ I rather he get all the attention in school than me! Fucker been annoying since I defeated him the first time!
I'll do the class thing but not announce it? Shit. I got the school's bracer. It will detect any changes in me! Shit!
