Chapter 10_Tales of A Reincarnated Mob

It has been 40 days since I entered the tower. I'm currenly on the 23th floor. I ran out of foods on the 13th floor. Fortunately, from the 11th floor onwards, there are horned-rabbit and

Polluted deer.

At first, I was afraid of being contaminated by the abyss seeds, but hunger and my survival instinct made me lost my reason. After seeing that I'm completely fine eating their meats, I started hunting monster proactively for their meats.

Of course, it was only limited to animal-like monsters. No matter how hungry I am, I'm not gonna eat goblin or zombie meat.

I don't know if it was because I possessed the key to this dungeon, or unknowingly the abyss aura has been corrupting me. No matter the reason, I don't feel anything different after consuming the corrupted monsters meat.

The only changed that I noticed is that I don't feel anything when I'm dissecting their meats, even though it was nauseating when I saw gore scene when I first explored the 1st floor.

Maybe it's because I had killed too many monsters or maybe the abyss aura is affecting me slowly. No matter what, I'm happy with my current conditions.

〈Dark Crystal Sword〉

A sword made out of magic crystal and had absorbed the abyss power for a long time.

STR + 25

INT + 10

HP - 50

〈Ghost Boots〉

A pair of boots worn by a knight that died under the abyss curse.

AGI + 23

DEF - 8

〈Spirit Necklace〉

Necklace made from silver and blessed by the spirit.

INT + 12

STR + 5

〈Soul Robe〉

A robe made out of unicorn skin and soul stone.

INT + 25

DEF + 11

MP + 120

〈Vanguard Bracelet〉

A bracelet worn by a knight that wields a big shield.

STR + 8

DEF + 13

HP + 25

Just from these items alone, my strength has increased greatly. In terms of stats, my power is around level 40. Of course, without these items I'm barely reached level 20.

I got the sword in the 10th floor. Thanks to this sword I had the condifence to pushed my way through instead of going back to town. This is why rpg games is about items.

Other than equipments, I also got other rewards such as potions, ores, magic crystals and gold.

My magic bag is limited so I only kept meat from monsters and throws the rest of the monster materials away.

It's actually kind of wasting resources, but I can always come back and farm it later if I ever need some. As for selling it for money? I earned more than 700 gold just from the rewards alone.

If I sold the equipments that I didn't use I could easily get more than 1000 gold. Considering the average household monthly income is only 1 gold, I'm quite rich. Not to mention my family is so damn rich. Even my monthyl allowance is 1 Platinum coin.

Currency in this world is divided into copper, silver, gold and platinum with the rasio of 1:100. 1 platinum coin is equal to 100 gold. 1 gold is equal to 100 silver and so on.

However, I would rather let the unused equipments rots away in my inventory than selling them. What if I sold them and someone bought it, then the future events change? I can't control the goods flow once I sold it.

What if a minor character turned into a villain due to the equipments that I sold? What if the villains get stronger by using the equipments that I sold? To avoid this kind of thing that could affect the future out of my reach, keeping then in my inventory is much safer.

I can always give it to my subordinates or people that I trust can help me survive in the future. Lower tier equipments won't help much but at least it's much better than nothing.

However, the rewards above 50th floor are much better. The higher the floor the higher the equipments tier.

The bosses below the 30th floor gives magic and rare tier as the rewards.

The bosses on the 30-50th floors gives rare and epic tier as the rewards.

The bosses on the 50-70th floors gives epic and unique tier rewards.

The bosses on the 70-90th floors gives unique and legendary tier rewards.

And lastly, the bosses on the 95th and 100th floors gives heroic tier rewards.

The equipments that I wears right now are all rare tier.

There is still 5 days left before my training schedule over. I will go home once I cleared the 25th floor.

Originally, I planned to cleared the 30th floor within a month and take it easy for the rest of the time, but exploring dungeon alone is a lot harder than I thought even with prior preparations and knowledges.

If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.

"Grrrrraaaaa!"

A loud roar resounded interrupting my thought. Soon, a group of humanoid monsters with pig face appeared before me.

They hold blunt weapons in their hands.

"Tsk. Damn pigs!"

I channeled my mana into my sword and charged at them at full speed. In a blink, I managed to close my distance and slashed at them.

I unleashed《Crescent Slash》at a close distance. The shockwave creates a ripple in the air. The sharp wind blade cuts the orcs into two from its torso.

"If not for their humanoid feature, I would like to eat their meat and compared it with pork"

A dilapidated room filled with spider webs. Eggs wrapped with webs litter the area. Some are as big as a human and other are palm sized.

I'm currently standing inside the 25th floor boss room.

I had prepared myself as much as I could, but standing in this room still makes me nervous.

I took a deep breath and gathered my mana. I looked around but the boss figure is nowhere to be seen.

I gripped my sword tightly as I slowly approached the center. The tension made my steps felt longer than usual.

I swallowed my saliva.

I don't know if it's just my imagination, but the room was darker than the previous boss rooms.

Just as I was about to take another step.

My danger sense was ringing so hard.

A white round object was shot out from above.

Swish!!

"Shit!"

The object was moving fast leaving me no time to dodge.

I sent out 《Crescent Slash》in retaliation. The sharp wind blade cut the incoming object into two.

I looked upward and saw the culprit that attacked me.

A black creature with 8 legs and two sharp fangs on it's mouth. Without a doubt, this bitch is the boss.

Spider Queen.

It let out a sharp cry and the eggs inside the rooms moves as if coming to life. Baby spiders started to infest the area as they came out from their shells.

"What the hell!?"

I opened my eyes wide in shock.

I hurriedly ran from the center and rushed towards one of the pillars to avoid getting ambushed. Although baby spiders are small, they move fast and their fangs are poisonous.

The spider queen simply chose to glare at me instead of shooting it's webs just like earlier.

"Damn, bitch! are you looking down on me!?"

The black sword became red as I channeled my mana.

"Eat this!"

I slashed at the webs that litter the area. Just like a flint that produce sparks, fire started to burns the webs and spreads around as my sword hit the webs.

《Flame Sword》

I got this skill book in the 15th floor along with the necklace.

This skill is the reason why I dare to challenge the spider queen. Even if I have higher stats, it will be a hard fight due to the number of the enemies.

If I got surrounded and poisoned then I will soon fell into paralyzed status and got eaten.

That's one of the worst way to die.

Smokes filled the room as the fire spreads around burning the webs down.

A sharp cry echoed and the spider queen jumped into the ground.

It's mouth swelled up and it started shooting high speed webs at me.

"Mana shield!"

Mana surged around me and a barrier made out of mana protected me from the incoming attacks.

Clang.

The sound of bullet hitting a hard wall was heard.

The bullets made out of web was stopped by《Mana Shield》.

I obtained this skill book at the 20th floor. Originally my mana was not enough to cast this skill while fighting, but the robe provides me with 120 MP.

The boost on my mana making me have enough leeway to use skills. It cost 30 MP to use this skill in the game. Just by wearing the robe lets me cast this skill 3 more times.

I ran towards the other side and use 《Flame Sword》 to burns the eggs infesting the area.

As the flame spreads, countless baby spiders were burned to death under the sea of flame.

The scent of burned meat permeated the room. The remaining baby spiders jumped at me, but was stopped by 《Mana Shield》.

They kept jumping at me until they buried me. Although《Mana Shield》protected me from damage, there is a limit on how much damage it can take before shattering.

Leaving me with no choice, I casted《Mana Shield》3 more times to stack my defense.

I took a scroll from my magic bag and unsealed it.

"Die, bitch!"

As the scroll was unsealed, mana surged from it accompanied by green light.

Whooosh!

A strong wind blew out from the scroll. The room temperature rises as the wind collides with the flame. The raging flame became stronger instantly and burned the entire room in a blink of an eye.

The flames was so bright that it hurts my eyes just by looking at it.

"Rrrrraaaaaa!"

The spider queen let out a painful growl as if it was begging mercy.

The ground was shaking and loud sound could be heard as it rolled around trying to extinguish the flames that burned it's body.

After 5 seconds the wind stopped blowing, but the flames still burned so bright.

20 seconds later, the spider queen stopped struggling as it burned to death.

I could feel the heat even though I was protected with 3 stacks of《Mana Shield》. I looked around to find a small corridor leading towards the treasure room.

After I found it, I left the burning room without collecting the loot from the spider queen body because I was sure nothing will remains after it was burned to death. It's a shame though, it's core can be used as a material to make poison orb.

The flames didn't reached the treasure room as this place has somekind of barrier. There are 3 treasure chests in here just like the previous boss room.
