There is this thought that have been bothering me for a while now.
This is a Dungeon, is it not?.
If it really is a Dungeon, why am I not seeing any humans?.
I have been in this dungeon for a long time, and I have yet to come across any humans or even a figure close to that of a human
It might just be my weird thinking, but are dungeons not created so that they can be challenged by challengers?...
Contestants come into the Dungeon to challenge it in exchange for a reward.
At least that is how the Dungeons I see in the games are made.
From my point of view, I can understand why there would be no challenger coming into this dungeon.
Imagine venturing into a Dungeon in hopes of getting a reward after it is cleared, but what you end up getting is a claw to the stomach, or an experience of having your life flash before your very eyes.
A Dungeon that gives you nothing but life threatening opportunities.
"..."
Yeah, I don't think there is anyone stupid enough to go into such a Dungeon.
Even I am here because I never had a choice to begin with.
If it was a choice of me being here or having to be a slave to some rich folk,
I won't have to think twice to decide which one to go with.
This is not even a place I would want my enemy to end up in.
hmm.....,
what do we have here?....
Turns out, my opponent this time is a scorpion shaped monster.
Except of course, the size being too big for a usual scorpion as usual.
This just confirms my earlier complaint about never coming across a human shaped monster.
not like it matters though,
Even if I do end up meeting with them, it is kill or be killed.
A red painted body, Eight legs with two of it being a grasping pincer and a long tail hanging over its body.
I have a feeling this one is going to be my worst opponent to face.
First thing I have to worry about is getting stung by its tail,
Heard that is where their poison is stored in.
Tho other thing is getting caught with its grasping pincers.
No doubt I will be squashed to smithereens if that pincers gets me.
Initiating a close quarter combat with it without knowing the full range or speed of its pincer and stinger is a suicide death.
This is one hell of a tricky situation I found myself in.
I produced a thorn from my hand and hurled it at the scorpion.
It's stinger response time was so fast that all I could see was the thorn changing directions.
This is bad....,
Really bad.
With a quick reaction speed like that, I will have no chance walking up to it.
If I can't even see the movement of the stinger, how can I hope to plan my next form of attack.
A counterattack?.
I have to think of a counterattack against that stinger.
hmm.....
hmmmm....
Most of the skills I have are only helpful in a close combat range.
ƥαṇdα-ηθνε|·ƈθm The only long distance range I have, Thorn manipulation. Has no explosive power to it and can be easily dodged.
Damn it,
This really is an unfavorable situation for me.
In times like this, the best option for me is to.....
Get my fucking legs working and make one hell of a run out of here.
Not wasting another seconds on accessing my enemy,
I instantly shifted my body and turned my back on it as I sprinted as far as I could.
This is not a game.
That monster is bad news and I am not ready or stupid enough to engage with it.
This is the best course of action I can think of.
Like the saying goes,
He who runs from a battle lives to fight another day.
That is right,
I am not being a coward, but rather I am improvising.
I am doing this so I can live to become stronger and then challenge it then.
"..."
"..."
Oh screw it,
Who am I kidding.
I am like totally scared out of my wits right now.
That monster has got a fucking pincer in its hands,
Worst comes to worst,
I get caught with the pincer and have my head rolling off of my body.
I am not ready for that,
At least not right now.
My detection skill is not actually picking up any dangerous vibe coming from it, but that does not mean it is an easy prey.
Even if we are both at the same level,
It's physical appearance is more battle oriented than I am.
Exoskeleton scales to protect its body from any stab attacks,
Two huge front scissors to cut me down from the front, and a tail that moves in any direction it wants it to.
In what timeline can I even think of taking down something like that?.
This is not a game where I get to resurrect with infinite lives, one wrong mistake from me and it's game over.
"!!!!"
crap,
This monster is actually chasing after me.
For a monster its size, it is unbelievable fast.
At this rate, it just might catch up to me.
I need to speed up even faster,
I need to go faster than my body can allow if I want to escape from its range.
Skill activation, Meta Strength.
With my body enhanced with the effect of meta strength, I ran even faster than I ever thought I could.
If it wasn't for the monster chasing behind me, I would have loved to concentrate more on the feeling of my feet touching the ground like it is in a liquid form.
It feels like everything around me is moving in slow motion
except of course for the big guy.
Tbat bastard is still able to keep up with me even with Meta strength.
what kind of cheat is it using to run that fast with a huge body like that?.
I need to run eve!!
"!!!!"
Crap.
I am doomed.
Arghrghhhhh......
