After Kelly went into the dungeon I decided to sit down and meditate while waiting for her to come back out. Pulling on the mana in the air I took a deep breath and felt the mana strengthen my mind and body with every breath I took.
After some time I felt a tug on the mana I was pulling in for myself. Reaching with my mana sense I felt the mana in the air being pulled into the dungeon.
'Interesting so the dungeon has some kind of a will of its own."
Reaching out with my willpower I pulled on the mana in the air and the dungeon did the same. Now I was fighting with the dungeon's will over the ambient mana. I could hear people shout while I and the dungeon played this game of tug of war with the ambient mana.
----------------------------------------
I felt the mana suddenly become turbulent, so I rushed outside to see what was going on and to my surprise, I saw the lord fight over the ambient mana with the dungeon for what reason I did not know.
While I was watching the show Magus Volen walk up to me and asked. "Sir Charles do you know what the new lord is trying to do by pulling the ambient mana away from the dungeon?"
"I don't have any idea what he's doing."
Suddenly the Lord changed into the form of some kind of specter and the turbulent mana changed into a full-blown magic storm. random elemental magic was just being thrown about the place and hitting the troop in the area, we had to pull back a good thirty feet so we did get hit anymore by the mana storm. All we could do was watch as the new Lord fought with the dungeon over the ambient mana.
----------------------------------------
Kelly was walking toward the door to the seventh floor when she felt the mana in the dungeon being sucked out. I don't know what's going on but I do know that if the dungeon doesn't have any mana it won't be able to summon any monster to fight me, so nows my chance full speed ahead.
Kelly ran down the tunnels of the seventh floor unimpeded by any monsters and now was standing in front of the seventh-floor boss room. Kicking open the door she found the boss a hobgoblin with a shield and spear. Looking around she didn't find any other enemy in sight, so she charged head-on at the hobgoblin.
The hobgoblin readied its self for her and just as she came in reach of his spear he thrust out to stab her. Just as the spear was about to hit her she turned slightly to the side and the spear glanced off harmlessly to the side. She followed up with a horizontal swing at the hobgoblins head, it ducked down letting the sword pass over its head. Kelly kept her momentum going by performing a spinning back kick which the hobgoblin blocked with its shield but lost its balance and was pushed back. Kelly kept up the pace by stepping down with the leg she kicked with changing her horizontal momentum into a vertical downward swing on the hobgoblin which tried to retaliate by thrusting its spear at her face. The spear hit Kelly in the face but because the hobgoblin was off-balance there wasn't much power behind the thrust. The spear just bouncing off her steel helm as she brought down her claymore onto the hobgoblin, it screamed out a gut-wrenching cry of agony as it was split from shoulder to groin.
Kelly made her way toward the door leading to the eighth floor of the dungeon, on her way she realized that the rejuvenating energy was not coming so instead of running to the next boss room she walked using this time to let herself recover from the mental exhaustion she was filling.
She came up to the door leading to the eighth-floor boss pushing it open she spotted her opponent a young orc carrying a battle-ax, as soon a the orc saw her it charged at her an orc even a young one was nothing like a hobgoblin she could not just overpower it as she did before nor could she let it just hit her as she did with the hobgoblins. She used everything she had and the fight took over five minutes. The orc running out of stamina was the deciding factor of the battle.
Suddenly she felt the rush of power one gets from a level up.
"Two level-ups in one day, makes me feel like I just wasted the last two years."
Kelly was thinking of calling it quiet here because she only just barely beat the eight-floor boss and now she was in even worse condition but now with the level up Kelly was thinking she might just stand a chance at the ninth-floor boss. Kelly head down to the ninth floor at the very least the deep she went the better and she could decide if she was going to fight once she was there.
Kelly walk down the tunnels one step at a time her feet aching her muscles sore and her hand numb, she had been fighting now for almost half an hour with basically no rest at all. The only rest she really got was the walk from one fight to the next, but she kept telling herself I can rest later, Caleb can rub my back as a fall asleep like he did last night and with that, she stood before the ninth-floor boss room. She grit her teeth and tightened her grip on her Claymore and kicked open the door and ran in screaming. "AAAAAAHHHHHH"
She charged at the first enemy she saw a young orc, like before she entered another contest off might and grit as she fought blow for blow with the best she got a message from the system.
The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
Congratulations Body Enhancement Magic has reached level 10 +1 ability point +1 skill point
Kelly could feel the difference in her mana flow it was faster, smoother, and more powerful, she put the ability point she just got into strength now the desperate struggle she was in before now became a fight of equals one she was only slightly behind in as the fight went on and the to continued to trade blows with each other.
Suddenly the mana that was being sucked out of the dungeon came back and with it came the rejuvenating effect she was supposed to get before came now fully toping her up. Now she was the one holding the advantage in the fight with the orc. The fight carried on for another six minutes but in the end, the exhausted orc's legs gave out giving her the chance to deliver a solid horizontal slash to the orc's exposed neck loping it off in one clean stroke. The head flew through the air and landed on the ground as blood gushed out from the orc's headless body that fell to the floor with a thud.
Kelly felt the rejuvenating energy fill her body once more she went to the door leading to the tenth floor but when she looked in she saw orc after orc and decided she got lucky to come this far, anymore would just be suicide, so she stopped there and when she did she got a system message.

"WOW now what to pick, what do I want to be?"
----------------------------------------
After fighting with the dungeon over the ambient mana for some time, I felt that Kelly should be coming out soon. I soon heard the sound of footsteps coming from the dungeon and it was none other than Kelly. She looked like a wreck the armor that looked brand new now looked like someone tried to open a can with a hammer.
I got up and started to walk over to her but before I could get to her Kelly's father ran past me and grabbed his daughter up in a bear hug and spun her round and round. She just dangled there like a limp noodle too tired to resist her father's embrace. After some time he put her down so we could talk, she looked at me and I looked at her, and boy oh boy did she look tired right now so I just asked her straight.
"You ok?"
"Ya."
"You tired?"
"Ya."
"You want to go to sleep now?"
"Ya."
"You want me to rub your back till you fall asleep?"
"Ya."
"Ok come on."
I picked her up in a princess carry and took her to our tent that was set up while she was in the dungeon. Laying her down on the bed I started to take her armor off which took a lot longer than I expected it to but none the less I got it all off. following that, I stripped her naked and then rolled her onto her stomach so I could rub her back it's not like I didn't want to take her right but now just wasn't the right time for it.
After she fell asleep, I covered her with a blanket and left getting ready to delve into the dungeon myself. before going down I asked Kelly, father to watch the tent just in case anyone got any ideas.
Heading down into the dungeon myself now I could get an idea of what Kelly had to go through, it didn't take me very long before I stood in front of the door leading to the tenth-floor boss room pushing open the door I saw what I always thought an orc would look like not those small orcs from before.
Perhaps if I fought with this guy the first day I came to this world I would have had a hard time but Caleb right now is far stronger than the Caleb of three days ago and after entering the dungeon I got four levels for my shadow lord class. After killing the orc I walk into the door it was guarding and what did I find a glowing sphere floating on top of a pedestal. Walking up to it I could tell immediately that it was different the one I had stolen was a perfect sphere of condensed mana, as for the one I just found it is an uncut gemstone with mana inside.
Placing my hand on it I could fill the same will that I had felt before but now the will felt like it was afraid for its life as if I had a grasp of its heart or something. Wanting to take a closer look at what this was I pushed my mana into the gem, it tried to push back with its willpower, but I just used my own to force my mana into the gem and once I filled the gem with my mana I got a message from the system.
Congratulation you are now the owner of your very own dungeon. You now have the Dungeon master class, if the Dungeon heart is destroyed you will lose the Dungeon master class and all the power you gained from it, work hard to strengthen your bond with your Dungeon heart.
"What in the world did I just do?"
Suddenly a female voice appeared in my head.
"HOW COULD YOU FORCE ME IT WAS MY FIRST TIME COULD"T YOU OF BEEN A LITTEL GENTLER YOU BASTARD MASTER!"
All I could do is stand their eyes wide mouth agape in shock.
