Souta turned his body in the air while slashing his sword.

Putchi!

The heads of the ghouls fell on the ground with a loud 'thud' sound.

Souta landed and he he quickly moved his body around the wide room.

He didn't get to close to the walls as he know that there's a trap there. If he get one meter close to the walls he will activate the trap. The walls, ceiling, and floors will sprout metallic spike that could kill him easily.

Souta swiftly moved his body as he avoided the ghouls from all side.

Swiish!

He cut the arms the ghouls in front of him before he swept it with his staff.

Bang!

"Ten down..."

With every wave of his hand, parts of ghouls flew in the air. He cleanly cut their bodies in to two before smashing it with his staff.

He crushed the ghouls brutally without a hint of mercy. He slash, slash, and slashed his sword until he cut them down.

In just ten minutes, he finished all the twenty eight ghouls.

He sat down on the ground while panting heavily. Fighting almost thirty ghouls costed him large amount of stamina. He even took some scratches on his body.

"I'll rest for an hour..." Souta muttered as he lied down on his back. He looked at the ceiling with a blank expression.

Grrrr!!

The door slowly opened as the ground shook slightly. It revealed a path to go back to the entrance.

"Huff... Just twenty more souls and I will be able to use the effect of [Soul Blood Earring]." Souta muttered while looking at the interface in front of him.

Just a little bit more and he will be able to increase one of his attributes using the effect of his earring. The effect of [Soul Blood Earring] was permanent, so even if he unequip it his stats will stay the same.

When you're a goblin it doesn't matter if you level up or not, what matters was the evolution. The attributes only increased by one and it didn't even made a difference in powers.

"Haa~" Souta wiped his sweat using the [Undead's robe]. He doesn't had an inventory so he couldn't store the equipment he found in this dungeon.

"I will be fighting the boss soon..."

He recalled that the boss here was the Great Undead Summoner. A boss type ghoul that could summon tens of ghouls in an instant. He guess that this will be enough for his [Soul Blood Earring].

He will also level up to 8 if he could kill five or more ghouls.

He closed his eyes and fell asleep. He dreamed that he was Blood fighting hundreds of enemies in the near Great War.

...

He woke up after 3 hours of sleeping. He sat on the ground and rubbed his eyes.

"I fell asleep..."

He looked at his surroundings and found that he was still in the dungeon. How careless of him to sleep in a dungeon full of ghouls.

He stood up while grabbing his weapons, the staff and sword. He then exited the room after he finished checking his condition.

He arrived in the intersection and went to the path where the boss lies. He just checked his stats and this was enough for him.

Soon, he met five ghouls.

He didn't hesitated as he directly charged ahead while brandishing his sword.

"Finish the battle in an instant... Do not waste stamina."

Putchi!

The heads of the ghouls flew in the air as their body stopped moving.

Souta turned his head and looked at the body of the ghouls. He then waved his sword and the blood on it splattered on the ground.

"Just a little bit more and I will level up."

He walked ahead and found a huge metal door.

"A boss room, huh?"

He placed his palm on the door, feeling the cold metallic surface of the door. He put more force in his hand and pushed the door open.

Swooosh!

Cold wind burst out of the room. It brushed his face and felt a chill on his body.

"It's cold here..." He muttered and looked at the robe that was hanging on his shoulder. Placing down the staff, he grabbed the robe and wrapped it on his body.

"Okay, let's do this!" Souta took a deep breath and said to himself. He unconsciously emitted a faint killing intent as he stepped inside the room.

The room was so wide. It's circular like the room of the Undead Skeleton Mage. There's no torches on the walls as it was covered in ice. On the ceiling, there's a crystal gives off light.

Souta saw the figure of a two and a half meter ghoul in the center of the room. Below its feet, a large magic circle was drawn on the ground. The magic circle was emitting a faint white light.

It was the boss of this dungeon, the Great Undead Summoner.

"Another long range boss..." He muttered while looking on the gigantic ghoul.

He could feel the dense mana in this room. After learning the [Mana Manipulation] skill, he became sensitive to the mana in his surrounding.

The boss moved its head and looked at him deeply. It then roared loudly that shook the entire room.

ROAR!!

Souta smirked as he saw seven ordinary ghouls emerge from the ground.

"An exp pot, huh?"

He bent his knees and threw himself on the ghouls.

Boom!

In just a second, he arrived in front of the ghouls. He used [Stab] and pierced the body of the ghoul. He didn't stopped as he headed to the next ghoul and smashed it using his staff.

Bang!

The boss took a deep breath and Souta noticed it. Souta quickly rolled sideways as the boss used its own skill.

[Air Wave]

Powerful gust of wind that could tear Souta's flesh shot out from the mouth of the boss. The wind didn't hit anything before it crashed in the walls causing it to shake a few times.

"What a powerful skill..." Souta said in a low voice while looking at the damage it caused. He then turned his head and looked at the boss with a smile on his face.

*Ding!*

[Quest triggered!]

[Boss fight]: defeat the dungeon boss and conquer the dungeon. Rewards: 400 exp, 1 attribute point, and 1 skill point.

Souta read the quest with a smile on his face. He turned to the ordinary ghouls and used [Dash]. He quickly kill one of the ghouls before jumping in the air. He could see that there's another seven ghouls emerging from the ground.

He opened his palm and shoot [Fire ball].

Bang!

"You're not the only one who have skills..." Saying this, Souta aimed his sword downwards as he fell down while piercing the head of the ghoul.

He quickly stood up as the rest of the ghouls were rushing at him.

This was the strategy of this boss. While the boss was charging the [Air Wave], the ordinary ghouls were going to rush at its enemy.

[Summoning], [Air Wave], and [Berserk Ice Shot] were the skills of this boss. Once a player grasped the boss fighting style, they could eliminate it easily.

He run in circle while slashing the ghouls. He kept moving his arms as he just slashed and smashed everything in front of him.

Then, he heard a familiar sound in his head.

*Ding*

[You've level up!]

[All attributes increased by 1!]

[You've received 1 skill points!]

[You've received 2 free attribute points!]

'Level 8, huh?' He thought as he jumped in the air and barely avoided the [Air Wave].

He used the head of the ghouls to run before jumping towards the boss. He slashed his sword on the back of the boss.

Swiiish!

The boss grew angrier as it threw him rapid punches.

Souta jumped side to side barely dodging the punches of the boss. He shot [Fire ball] once again and it hit the face of the boss.

Souta turned around and leave the boss. He proceeded to kill the ordinary ghouls.

*Ding*

[You've collected 100 souls!]

He heard a system prompts on his head. He looked and saw that he collected 100 souls. When he was about to use the souls he collected the boss used the most powerful skills in its arsenal.

[Berserk Ice Shot]

Ice blocks with the size of a human head, kept coming straight at him.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Souta got hit on his shoulder and stomach.

"Argh!"

He gritted his teeth as he used the 100 souls to increased his Agility attribute by ten.

*Ding*

[You've used the soul you've collected!]

[Agility increased by 10!]

Souta felt cold energy entered his body and it increased his ability.

[Agility: 23]

'This will be enough...' He took a deep breath while checking his attribute and...

Swooosh!

He disappeared from his position and appeared ten meters away. He moved so fast that the ghouls couldn't even see him.

He turned around him used [Stab] repeatedly, piercing all the bodies of the ghouls.

The boss grew angrier at this. It once again casted [Air Wave] as [Berserk Ice Shot] was cooling down. Powerful gust of wind went straight forward on Souta.

Souta turned his head and looked at the incoming powerful wind. When the powerful wind was about to hit him, he once again vanished.

The boss was stunned at this. It then noticed that Souta was running.

[Dash]

Souta increased his speed with the skill [Dash]. When he was ten meters away from the boss, he jumped in the air and used [Stab] on the face of the boss.

Roar!

The boss roared and waved its hand. Souta maneuvered himself in the air and landed in the ghouls hand.

[Fire ball]

The fire ball exploded in the face of the boss. Souta followed up by stabbing his sword.

[Stab]

*Ding*

[Proficiency reached!]

[Your skill Stab level up to two!]

Souta was surprised when he saw the system prompts. He didn't think that he would be able to level up his skill in just two days. Normally, it would take a week or two to level up a level 1 skill to 2 without using skill points.

'Luck is on my side!' He smirked as he used the strengthened [Stab].

Putchi!

Dark red blood gushed out from the neck of the boss.

"Die!" Souta roared as he used [Fire ball] until he run out of mana.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

All of the fire balls hit the head of the boss. The head of the boss was covered in thick gray smoke.

Thud!

Souta landed in front of the boss and waved his sword and staff.

"AHHHH!!!"

"JUST DIE!!" He waved the two weapons in his hands trying to kill the boss. In just a minute, he threw more than hundred blows.

'For the final phase!' Souta pulled back his sword before stabbing it madly.

[Stab]

*Ding*

[You've received 1,830 exp for defeating the Great Undead Summoner!]

Souta breath a sighed of relief when he heard the system prompt. Then, he was filled with bewilderment. He haven't finish the mission. He already killed the boss.

Soon, he found the answer as he heard a low growl behind him.

The ghouls were still here. He wouldn't be able complete the mission until he kill all of them.

He turned around with a tired expression as he faced the ghouls.

"Ah~ I need to make it quick... I want to rest."
