Chapter 17: Chapter 17 The Dungeon Opens 2

Chapter 17 The Dungeon Opens 2

After three hours, I finally snapped back to reality, to the stinging of my right eye.

Ahhhh, fuck! This had to be one of the worst pains I felt in a good minute. Taking out a potion, I poured it over my closed eyelid and face, growling as it stung even more before the pain subsided.

I would be left with a permanent scar but, I couldn't care less this was the price for me losing myself. There was no way I could do this new quest anytime soon so it was best I left it alone for now, unless I had either, the power to choose between justice or revenge.

I could easily show my family the quest, but then I'd be challenged to fight by her, or, her son, and he's last I checked lv 30 and waiting for the guild tournament. Remember, in this world, one's might can be better evidence than a bloody handprint. If he wins, then it proves my aunt was right, and my father's death would be sad but needed just for her son's foundation. Pushing the thoughts away for now, I went back and hit yes on the system prompt, spending 15 on my skill points.

skill points: 52<37

All my veins and nerves were on fire as I was coughing and vomiting up thick black sludge, it was being forced out through pores as well. This went on for an hour before it stopped.

< The user has gone threw a drastic change [ mana circuits] have been integrated with soul core, and mana circuits will now be named [Ather core grade-incomplete]. The user can improve one's core to grow even stronger in all aspects... system highly recommends one cultivate one's ki to properly complete the Ather core as blocage should no longer impede the user from using one's energy's>

[Ather core grade-incomplete]

A core made in one's soul combing one's aura mana and ki to form a seamless blend of all energies, increasing the abilities of all related skills per grade. However, since no ki is being actively used willingly, the core is not fully formed. so all benefits are locked

Looking at the black mass I [Appraised] it, quickly getting a container and scooping up a good amount of it before burning the rest as well as any still on my body. < substance is toxic and can cause suppression of natural energies and can remove one's system if the substance is in one's body for more than 10 years if below lv 50> Ugh, that was nasty, but it is all gone now nothing else will stop me from using my all, that's not my own limits.

Going back to the skill shop, I no longer had a need to get any mana recovery skills, since my new core does that for me it may not have stated it, but I can feel it, it was like moving a hand again, after so long without it.

I needed a good skill, something like [Natural Hardness] but, something like speed wise I had two power-boosting abilities that aren't my rage skill but, [Mana straightening] doesn't give much speed. It's versatile, but without a speed skill like how [Physical Reinforcement] boosts my power, I'll be lacking. As I kept scrolling, I found just a skill that was in my price range.

<would you like [Wild steps] for 30 skill points?> Hitting yes, I learned it, reading over its info and smiling.

[Wild Steps lv:1] constantly uses mp or ki to increase one's body's speed times 2, allowing one to not only move faster but one's entire body faster as well as reaction speed

Smiling as my alarm went off after practicing with my new stats I got out of my storage, Icy looked over at me and I nodded as we walked out, and silence, as the entire town was, loud and excited as a large portal was seen from our inn. Manly black dots and streaking lights entered the portal, Icy put her hand on my shoulder squeezing it.

"I got this Icy I took down three high teen's levels I can face what this place has for me one way or another," I said to her moving her hand.

"you better dammit you're my family now. So don't go leaving me alone and get all the good shit ya can maybe a nice bow for me too ~," She said playfully as I laughed before, speeding past so many lower levels like me jumping into the portal as I felt every slip into a deep dark void.

Waking up, I was propped on a broken pillar. All around me was an endless night sky with a large full moon, coming through the top of the dungeon sector, I was in. A memory or at least a figment of the past flickered threw my mind of a dashing man with an eyepatch and a black cowboy hat, giving a playful grin looking to Lycan.

"Wanna play with luck and chance lyce~?" The figure said as I smiled, seeing some group attacking single people coming to me.

"Yeah, I'm a betting man stocker". I muttered as my hair grew longer and shaggier spots of dusk gray fur grew on my body as my face was fairly covered as well.

I let out a powerful howl shaking the walls as many stopped to see that a werewolf was amongst them.

IT'S TIME TO HUNT!

Have some idea about my story? Comment it and let me know.

Hope yall like the double chapter so that my posting schedule is all over the place but it's honestly hard for me an artist to get used to having to write weekly so I'm trying to do something new to swear I'll have multiple chapters at least two out per week posted on at least the same day if not I may just go back to posting single chapters throughout the week we'll see as always Have Faith and Check It~
