After the old priest left I also left the church. When I finally was outside the soldiers were already gone. I guess left immediately.
I decided to go the place where the dungeon was to remove my boredom.
"I wonder how should I solve this case. If I just killed him they wouldn't know the crimes he did."(Jeff)
Those papers he took will definitely be a good evidence, but how do take it?
As I walk for several minutes I finally arrived, The Cave of Judgement. it's currently being raided mostly by beginner C ranks. It seems that the higher ranked adventurer doesn't have any interest on it yet.
Outside the dungeon were various stall lined up. Most of them were selling weapons and potions, some were selling foods others were repairing weapons.
"Hey there, want some fruits?!"
"I repairing armors here, only 1 silver!"
"Spell books here!"
"I got some weapons and armors here, 20% off!"
The place was quite lively, I could see many adventurers here, but most of them were only C rank, but few of them were B rank. As I walk pass through the stalls I felt hungry so I bought bread and orange juice.
I sat beside a tree as I eat my food.
"Oh yeah... I haven't checked those books yet."(Jeff)
I took 2 books from the magic bag. Those books were the spell books that I bought from the magic shop. i haven't read ever since I got them.
"I got too excited to stroll around that I forgot to read this."(Jeff)
By the way, Spell Books can only be made by an Alchemist. You can't make any Spell Books by just simply writing on them. I didn't know how Spell Books were made but I didn't asked about it since it didn't really interest me at all. The shopkeeper said that you can learn the magic bestowed on the book by simply opening it in front of you. You'll learn how to use them but it's up to you whether you can use them properly.
I opened the 2 books. A light appeared in the page of the books as information flows into my head. After that the books disappeared.
"So it really disappears, huh."(Jeff)
Actually you can learn magic even you don't use Spell Books. It will take quite a lot time, but you can. Which means you can make your own magic spell on your own. I tried making a magic spell but it didn't really work, my Magic Affinity only helps me able to use magic well, which means it's only something like a bridge. Making your own magic spell has quite a lot of complexity. You'll need a clear imagination in your mind or else it won't work. Well there are only few people known to have make their own magic spells.
You have learned Shadow Mist!

I began to walk inside the dungeon, I haven't fight any enemies yet since the adventurers are the ones fighting them. Thus I decided to enter deeply into the cave to find my own monster to kill.
Before I entered the dungeon, there was an information board at the entrance of the dungeon. The information board contains the reports of the adventurers the ventured inside the cave. There were all sorts of information, like the information about the monsters inside, the dungeon's structure, but what caught my interest there was that the latest information.
Some adventurers have finally entered the second floor, they said that the second floor didn't look like a cave anymore, it was made of stone blocks and had many passages, thus making it an labyrinth.
Since I don't have anything to do, I decided to go there.
As I walk deeply inside the first floor, I finally found my own prey, though they're only goblins.
Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
"Haaah... goblins again. Well, the information board said that there are only goblins, bats and skeletons in the first floor so I shouldn't complain."(Jeff)
I decided to test my magic spells on the goblins. 10 goblins, perfect for practice.
Magic spells doesn't need any incantation, you just need a firm image in your mind and say the name of the spell.
I faced my palm in to one of the goblins and began to cast spell.
">Shadow Ball<."(Jeff)
A ball of darkness in my palm, I concentrated the release of my spell and threw the ball into the goblin.
"Gruaaaghh"(Goblin)
The ball succeeded in hitting the goblin. It died after it was hit so I didn't get to see the movement debuff of the spell.
">Shadow Step<."(Jeff)
I teleported in to the goblins instantly.
">Shadow Mist<"(Jeff)
A smoke exploded into the goblins and began to spread around. They began to panic as they cautiously guard themselves, some even mistook their comrades as an enemy.
"They really can't see me, huh."(Jeff)
I unsheathed my dagger and began to kill the goblins while casting some of my spells.

I began killing all the goblins that I could found while casting some magics. I was able to fight some skeletons but they were very weak to me. Their only slightly stronger than goblins.
According to the information board the entrance to the second floor was guarded by a boss class, Warrior Goblin. After walking and killing for an hour I was finally able to meet the boss.
There standing on front of a door was a 2 meter tall goblin wearing a plate mail and a greatsword on it's back. It had an intimidating face and it's arms was full of scars.
