The next morning he was ready.
“ Im finally entering the dungeon again.
*inhale*
*exhale*
“Yesterday when I thought about it it sounded so easy ,but now when im ready to enter I'm getting cold feet.
Heh, it seems that the near death experience with the last slime in the tutorial has left me with some consequences, but my desire to kill those fuckers and strengthen myself is way stronger than the fear im currently experiencing."
'I have to get strong , at least strong enough to protect those I care about.
During these two days in which I have trained my skills I have also red the Gamer and found out something extremly worrying. In the manhwa there existed many people with magicial powers that they trained to acquire or suddenly gained them by chance like the protagonist of the manhwa. The power of these individuals was varied from as weak as a normal human to god like powers that could destroy nations with ese, but strangely most of the worlds population didn't know about them and thought that the powers they possesed were just the imagination of ancient people or maybe people seeing things.
If these powerful peole existed then how is ot posible that they are not known or why is the earth not completely destroyed if these people had this much power?
The answer was that Gaia, also known as the will of the world punnished all those possesing special powers if they used them against normal people or destroyed the peace of the common world. Being unable to fight on the common world they insted fought in a specially created places (illusionary barrier) which were a complete replica of reality .'
The more he thought about this the more he became worried.
'Did Gaia or an equivalent of it exist ?
What if it didn't?
If it didn't exist then who or what would prevent a strong enough gamer to do as he pleases in reality. Who would stand in their way?
Would it be the police?
Hahaha, that was laughable.
Whould it be the army?
Maybe they would be able to fight against them, but for how long? From what I have seen in the store the power of some the skills in there could make a gamer comparable to a portable, human shaped, higly inteligent nuclear weapon.
Then what if ther were two people such as this , maybe even ten or twenty?'
*shiver*
"This thought brings shivers to my very soul.”
.....
“Huuuu...
There is no need to think about such things now as I have no power over it...for now.
This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
Oppen dungeon ,'Slimy Tunnel'.”
*flash*
A bright blinding light came out of the phone screen and enveloped him.
.......
“ Ughhhhh...
Why the hell do I have to get flashbang everytime I enter the dungeon, why!?”
*rub rub*
He rubbed his eyes for a little while and regained his clarity.
“Thats better.
Now, where are we?”
In front of him appeared a dark tunnel similar to the one he was in before at the tutorial with little differences.
The tunnel walls were solid rock like before and some green moss cast a soft green light on the darkness . The difference between the previous place was that the previous tunnels walls were smooth rock like it had been sanded to perfection and this one was rough, like the one who dug it was drunk. Another difference was that the was a musty smell I'm the air like decaying wood.
"Where is it coming from?"
As he looked around he observed wooden pillars in an interval along the tunnel.
" Now I got it.
It makes sense that there is a musty smell. This place is an abandoned mine from the description and now that I saw the wooden support pillars...
I hope that it won't collapse."
After looking around some more he looked at his inventory.
"Wheew...
Food and water is still there, but the shotgun that I borrowed from grandpa Is locked?"
*Tap tap*
"I had a hunch that it wouldn't be so easy."
He continued to tap the icon representing the shotgun in the inventory , but it was greyed out and had a lock in the top right corner of its icon.
"Well, no matter. I'll just have to resort to more a physical way."
He moved his sight from the icon of the shotgun and to the icon of a long chain .
*Tap*
*Whirl*
The phone screen blacked and a black hole appeared in front of him. He though was not surprised at all and put his hand inside it and pulled out his weapon.
*Clink clinic*
The links of the four meter long chain clanked against each other and the rectangular solid metal block at one end of it fell to the ground.
" Hehehe, I am glad I did some practice with it yesterday , but...
He smiled while he remembered the painful experience he had yesterday while practicing with it.
*Shake shake*
He shook his head to get those memories out of his mind and became serious.
" It's time for the second round.
Wait for me you slime motherf*ckers."
*Tap tap tap tap tap tap*
*Clink*
....
*tap tap tap*
He continued down the tunnel with his new weapon at hand. He held the four meter long chain in front of him with the weighted end on his right hand and the unweighted end on the other.
The kusari-fundo he had chosen was not a typical one that was small , about 50 cm , weighted on both sides and was usually a concealed weapon that was used to cach the opponent by surprise. His kusari-fundo was very long for reach and it's main mode of usage wasn't throwing it like a normal kusari-fundo , but spinning the weighted end and when the target came into range the weighted end would fly towards the opponent with great force that was gained by the spinning.
The weight at the end of the chain was 200 g solid iron so a strike from it could easily break a human skull and kill .
*Clink clinic*
He was walking cautiously checking his front and back.
*Slush slush*
*Tap*
"Finally! I was starting to get bored."
Ten meters away from him appeared a slime moving forward slowly. His jelly , transparent green body was about to try the taste of iron.
'Huuu...
Stay calm and just remembered the practice yesterday. Spin the chain slowly at first and when the slime comes into range throw the weighted side at full force.'
*Clink clink*
*Whoop whoop whoop whoop*
The chain cut through the air with such speed tha the sound from bit was like a helicopters blades.
*Whoop whoop whoop whoop*
*Slush slush*
'Easy, easy...
6 m, 5m...
*Dash*
As usual after entering the five meters range the slimes speed increased.
"Now!"
*Whoshhh*
*Bam*
"Success...
The weighted end hit the slime head on and stopped it In it's tracks.
*Wiggle wiggle*
The hit had caused a good indentation on the slime and it seemed to have some problem with rearranging itself.
"Huh, would you look at that. It seems that the attack made more damage that I expected.
*Wiggle wiggle*
Well, I won't complain."
*Tap tap*
He took two steps back and started to spin the chain again.
*Whoop whoop whoop whoop*
"Haht...
*Bang*
"Again.
*Whoop whoop whoop whoop*
Haht...
*Bang*
Haht...
*Bang*
*Whoop whoop whoop whoop*
*Ooze*
The slime couldn't hold his shape anymore.
"Huh, It died?"
*Ping*
[Slime defeated....
+ 5Xp
+ 1Gold ]
"Good, this is going better than expected."
*Tap tap tap tap*
