Now a bloodied Yuki Kaito began walking to the second save point. He felt sick to the core, the exhaustion and mental fatigue that he had suffered during the first 2 stages of the dungeon.

"Man, this sucks!"

[Stage two: Complete]

[Zombified Wolves: defeated]

[Item drop: Shining Wolf]

Just as he did to the crystal tear, Yuki double tapped the shining wolf fang out of curiosity to read its information chart.

[Item type: Crafting]

[Name: Shining Wolf Fang]

[Rank: D]

[Attack: 0]

[Description: Power: marital used to create the "moonlight sword". A female wolf once had many children at once. When she couldn't take care of them, she abandoned all of them to starve. Once they died, they became reincarnated as zombie wolves. Since they couldn't bear being alone, they stuck as a group all the time which made some of them fuse together.]

It had been about 5 hours since Yuki had entered the dungeon. All he wanted to do was eat food and go to bed in the city. He missed having people around him. The loneliness was finally getting to him.

"Okay look, I've already cleared 1/5 of the dungeon already so all I have to do is repeat this 4 more times then I can go back to my team with pride," Yuki told himself.

As he entered through the gate way he heard a familiar voice.

[Save point reached]

[If you would like to move to the 3rd stage of the dungeon, please step forward]

[Stage 3 difficulty: level 2]

"Nah, I'm done for the day. I need to get some rest anyway," Yuki said out loud.

He lied down on the ground of the gate way and fell into deep slumber.

Once he had woken up, Yuki felt a lot better.

"I guess your healing abilities also improve as you level up. At least I can have an extra full status recovery potion with me," Yuki said to himself.

He did a couple stretches and walked through the gate.

"What is that smell? It reeks here!" Yuki said.

Right in front of him was a pile of bones everywhere and a weird creature which had a bent back. As he kept walking, Yuki accidentally broke one of the bones on the ground which made a loud cracking sound. The weird creature turned its head around and looked straight at Yuki with its red eyes. In its mouth was a human hand which still had some flesh remaining. Yuki had to use all his strength not to vomit.

"First it was skeletons then zombie wolves and now ghouls! I can't catch a break," Yuki complained.

The ghoul jumped off the pile of bones and leaped towards Yuki with its mouth gaping wide open.

"Straight to the battle, huh?"

"That's fine, less wasted time for me."

[Hungry Ghoul: Allison]

Above its head was a title just like the other monsters Yuki had faced in the dungeon. It also contained a name beside its title like the first stage.

"Well, I guess I'll have to finish this fast."

Yuki grabbed "Fallen angel of hell" from his inventory and prepared to block the attack. Feeling a bit more confident since he reached level 3, Yuki had let his guard down which was a big mistake. The ghoul bit down on the sword and kicked Yuki in the stomach which made him lose his grip on his sword. Yuki was now knocked back and also had no sword.

"What a pain."

Yuki pulled out two daggers from his inventory box and held a fighting stance. The ghoul threw "Fallen angel of hell" into the distance and began to rush towards Yuki. As it opened its mouth once again to take a bite, Yuki blocked it with his blade. However, the ghoul latched on to the side of the dagger and cracked it to pieces.

"I can't win this fight without fallen angel of hell, I need to cause a distraction so I can go get it," Yuki thought to himself.

As the ghoul went in for another attack, Yuki stayed in the same position and waited for the right opportunity. Just as the ghoul got close enough, he placed his second dagger tip-upward, in the ghoul's mouth and kicked its jaw. The tip of the dagger pierced through its inner skin and jammed itself within the ghoul's head. Wasting no time, Yuki rushed towards his blade. As he sprinted, he sensed the presence of the ghoul behind him.

"I won't have enough time to turn around to counter once I get my sword back. I guess I have no other choice," Yuki said to himself.

He reached down for his sword and instead of turning around to face the ghoul, Yuki spun his sword around, making the blade face backwards and pushed it with all his might. He felt the sword jab something and suddenly he couldn't feel the bloodlust presence that was behind him any longer. Yuki let out a sigh of relief and fell to his knees.

[+2500 exp]

[Player: Yuki Kaito]

[Level 3: 8600/50000]

"Please tell me I don't have to face more of them that strong, this monster was just as strong as the level 2 white haired mercenary I faced. Now that I think about it, this ghoul was probably stronger because it didn't fear death which made it able to attack relentlessly."

"I mean, the exp gained is a lot but fighting monsters that strong all day is too much work. Seriously though, why is this place so big?"

As Yuki walked in the endless land of bones, he spotted two more ghouls in the distance. Their red eyes glew within the darkness.

"This has to be a joke. Why are there so many of these annoying creatures?!"

Yuki pulled out "Lucky Sword" from his inventory and held both his treasured swords in hand.

"I'll need both of you to help me in this fight!"

For 30 whole minutes, they exchanged blows, as each second passed, Yuki became more exhausted. The only thing that helped him keep doing was the adrenaline rush. Right as he was finally getting used to the movements of the two ghouls, he saw 7 sets of red eyes in the distance.

"Shit!"
