I let out a soft yawn. I jump out of the bed ready for the new day. [Max you up]? {Yes I am}. [Alright let's get this day started]. I walk downstairs to get breakfast. A waiter comes to my table. "What would you like to order"? [I'll have the beef]. "That's three copper". I hand her the copper as I wait for my meal. Two people start making a ruckus behind me. "Oi, what did you just say"? " I said you smell like a giant dump". "I'LL SHOW YOU". A brawl breaks out it's loud but I'm too hungry to care. "Here's your food". The staff didn't seem worried about the fight so I'm guessing it happens quite often.

[Time to eat]. I stab my fork into the beef and pick the entire thing up. Drool hangs from my mouth as the steam hits my nose filling it with the wonderful smell. -KRKK- I bite down only to have my teeth hit pure ice I look down to find that a stray ice spell hit my steak freezing it completely. A tear ran down my cheek as I emitted a powerful bloodlust. I walk over to where the brawl is going on. I then pin down both of the people who started the fight. [Pay up]. "Huh"? [Pay for the beef you guys shot with ice magic]. "Or what"? I change my staff into a Dagger and stuck it into the ground a few centimeters away from his face. [Or we will see how much flesh a man can lose I think that's fair compensation for ruining my meal].

(Skill Activated: Intimidate)

I was hungry I couldn't forgive them for getting in between me and a warm meal. "A-Alright just calm down". He throws the copper to the ground which I pick up and go to the waiter. [More food please]. She only sighs and takes the money while going to the kitchen. I go back to the table waiting for another.

I finally get my meal and it was great. *FINALLY SOMETHING OTHER THAN CHICKEN*! I finish eating and make my way out. It seems that the people I threatened would try their best to avoid me. I guess I should go pick up that armor. I jump from rooftop to rooftop heading to the blacksmith. -DINGALING- I open the door to the shop and head in. "Oh, it's you". [Is it ready yet]? "Yup I worked on it all night long. The look on his face told me that he didn't do this for me but for the money. [Let me see if it's satisfactory. He produces a red-scaled vest and leggings with a white inside. The scales provide a lot of protection while the Kraken leather makes it easier to move in. *Let's see if he is telling the truth. [Status]

(Name: Salamander Scales armor)

(Effect: Defence + 500 Vitality + 300, Fire resistance, allows the user to enhance the armor using fire magic)

(Name: Kraken Leather Undershirt)

(Effect: Defence + 150 Agility + 300, Water resistance, Fire Resistance, Water Magic Attack + 200, Allows the user harden the armor using Mana if done defense increases to + 800 however agility is lowered to + 50)

Wow, this is some great stuff. [Quality looks good so here you can have this]. I produce another large bag of gold the same size as the last. His eyes greedily shine as I leave after equipping my new armor. {You know you gave him more than his shop is worth right}. [It doesn't matter we have the money plus this makes him more willing to do work for us in the future just call it an investment]. Max sighs, [So where to now]? {If I remember correctly there is a dungeon near the city and it's a lot weaker than the one we went to but it will allow us to test new strategies for the tournament}. [Guess it wouldn't hurt]. I began running using my advanced Mobility to get over the wall. [So where is it]. {See that giant rock}? [Yup]. {The entrance is on the other side}.

I Walk over to see a small cave-like entrance with many adventurers around. I could hear the people around me whisper. "What's a Kobold doing here"? "Don't know but maybe we can exploit him". I ignore their annoying babbling and walk inside.

This dungeon was way smaller than the hidden dungeon and also was a complete joke. The monsters consisted of level five through ten dire bats and undead. The worst we found was a level fifteen minotaur but we spent more time talking up strategies than actually taking it seriously which seriously pissed it off. -RAGGHH- [I think we could chain the phase step as well as Dance of the Dagger to make a more powerful version]. {Yeah we could try that}. The minotaur was confused as to why a Kobold wasn't cowering before him. [We could also try to chain some void magic but that would be kinda tricky]. {I say we stick to the Dance of Daggers idea}.

-RAUGH- The minotaur had enough and began charging at me.

(Skill Activated: Phase Step)

(Skill Activated: Dance of Daggers)

In an instant, deep cuts began appearing on the minotaur. I couldn't consider this a dance anymore it was now a tornado.

(Alert: Dance of the Dagger has Evolved into Furry of Knives)

Interesting seems like I'm able to use skills to evolve other skills. -GRGLGLGL- The minotaur started drowning in his own blood. It was very disturbing actually. [And there goes my lunch]. {Good you didn't need it anyway}. [HEY WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN]!? We continue deeper into the dungeon and find the boss room. [Alright I have high hopes for this boss room maybe it will give us a challange]. {Agreed it's been too boring so}. We open the door with high hopes. Inside was a beautifully decorated room with a throne of gold. On that throne sat a skeleton cloaked in black robes. [Status]

(Name: Lich)

(Race: Undead)

(Level: 30)

(Strength: 68)

(Agility: 73)

(Defence: 24)

(Vitality: 53)

(Skills and Magic: Syth Arts, Necromancy - Basic, Necromancy - Intermediate, Command)

(Titles: Dungeon Boss, Commander)

What a let down this thing is extremely weak maybe it's because of the Kraken fight and troll but this seemed like an insect compared to them. [Max just take care of it]. {Understood}. Skeletons rose from the ground as the lich crackles in delight. The Greatsword shined a bright blue as it materialized next to Max. -FWOOSH SHINK- -SKRIIIEEEE- The Greatsword goes straight into the chest of the lich. It lets out a cry as it slumps over in the throne dead. The Greatsword disappears. We stand there for a bit.

[Seriously not even a level what a waste of time]. {Don't speak too early we still have the treasure to grab}. [Your right let's go]. We go to open the door as a large chest sits in the middle of the room. We open it up and inside sits a ring. [Status]

(Name: Ring of the lich)

(Effect: Magic Capacity + 50, Allows the wearer to cast Basic Necromancy spells)

Of course, it's useless. I already have an insane Magic pool and because of my staff, I can already use Necromancy. I know that Max's equipment is also plus fifty but you need to remember those came from minibosses this was from the main boss of the dungeon. I let out a disappointed sigh. [What a waste of time]. I grab the ring and equip it. *Might as well equip it, we can always sell it later*. [Let's just leave I'm getting tired]. {Alright let's go}. We walk towards the exit of the dungeon tired after this long day.
