《A Circle Of Time》Clearing The Basic Dungeon
Advertisement
We show our cards and register with the guard in order to enter the basic dungeon, it is necessary to register yourself before you enter a dungeon so that there are records of your whereabouts in case you are missing. The guild cards serve as a proof of identity as well as subjugation as, as long as it exists in this plane of existence it will record the monster's killed by its owner and are almost impossible to forge.
They also have excellent anti-counterfeiting mechanisms and measures to figure out if the person holding the card is the actual owner or not . This saves them from annoyances of having to produce proof of killing any monsters by presenting their carcasses, although I can just carry them in my storage. Certain monster carcasses if presented to the guild are sold for extra money unless you are doing a quest, then it would be stated as to who owns the carcass for the number of monster's you are paid to subjugate and if the carcass is requested then that amount would be added to the reward.
The basic dungeon we have entered is exactly as its name suggests, it is the easiest dungeon and used as training for absolute beginner's and that's the reason why we have come here even with our strengths because we lack experience in fighting varied opponents without the use of our overwhelming stats and also to set up a baseline of our capabilities. So, we decide to clear the dungeon multiple times and reduce our power output till we are able to clear it completely without the use of any magic and just using technique while similarly reduce the use of physical force and clear it with just magic. We also decided to try it both as solo and as a party to increase our own experience in fighting a particular type of monster and also to raise cooperativeness with each other.

Thus we began our journey to clear the dungeon, there are 15 floors in this dungeon and there are a total of 3 types of monsters with the 1-5th floor being full of slimes, 6-10 floor are teeming with goblins and the 11-15 are kobolds. First we decide to use our full strengths individually to establish a baseline for our abilities, the first time we will be using everything at our disposal our full strengths and equipments.
Slimes are creatures who are partially resistant to physical attacks but very easy to defeat if you know where to hit them although I can just defeat them without hitting its weak point I decide to test myself that way and initially I use long distance magic and sword cuts and although it is terribly easy to do that killing all of them which amount to not less than 100 on each floor that is very time consuming so I decided to do something about it and use my Creation Magic [Creation Magic- Combination] In order to create magical homing arrows of all attributes and release continuous barrages leaving nothing behind where all of the slimes previously were sitting except some of the slimes dropped a few equipments such as rusty knives and a few shields, but their class was too low to be even be used by us, so we decide to sell them to the guild.
Because this is the beginner's dungeon it is extremely easy for us as we complete the first five floors, with just one monster left to defeat the boss of the slimes, a large slime which has a hidden core and is generally a little difficult for a beginner to take down except by using an AOE(Area Of Effect) magic or having a party of 4-5 beginners. I just use homing magic barrage until nothing was left, the way I am moving is like a moving fortress.

The next 5 floor are occupied by goblin's who have basically no value and I just kill them using my barrage and keep heading to the next floor as we keep going ahead and reach to the 10th floor where I meet a goblin mage, it appears that there are alternating floor master's for goblin's where sometimes it is goblin archer or goblin warrior or a goblin mage and killed it by cutting its head off its neck.
We then reach the 11th floor where I continue to barrage those kobolds until I reach the top floor. There we see a Kobold knight which was surprisingly weak so I just cut off its neck as well. The entire time it took me to complete the dungeon by myself was less than 45 minutes, whereas beginners with parties need around a day and a half to complete it, now I need to develop my strength in all ways without using the homing barrage and reduce the time to complete this dungeon in less than 15 minutes while also working on developing new techniques. After killing the dungeon master I received a pair of boots with wings {Sleipnir} which can let the user run faster and slightly glide in the air, but because I can already fly I just give it to Abberon.
Now it is her turn to set a baseline, She used lightning magic and fire magic with great proficiency and completed clearing the dungeon in around the same time as me and received a staff which amplifies magic but the grade is so low we decide to sell it with the other's keep it. This time I decided to completely avoid using all magic and just use my body until it can reach the same speed as when I just use wind magic while running. I just use my sword techniques and knowledge to complete the dungeon and this time it takes just under 2 hrs, Abberon also tried completing it with just physical attacks and we kept at it till around 8 pm and decided to leave today and head back here tomorrow as we exited the dungeon and marked ourselves out. I open a [Gate] to the alley near the Inn and we enter for dinner.
For dinner we have a batch of Frikkadel meatballs and some Ale as we discuss about our increased proficiency of around half the time without using any magic, so we reached the efficiency of completing the dungeon in just under 1 hr without using any magic and decided to continue training more tomorrow until we reach the efficiency of completing it in under half an hour and then we will practice completing it with just magic. By this time Abberon was so engrossed in the dessert that she was only half listening to what I was saying and when she saw me looking at her and smiling she got flustered and gave me an angry glare. As we depart to our own rooms.
Tonight we have had a good run, let us continue tomorrow as well. I thought as I meditated a little before slowly falling to slumber.

A Broken World [Dropped Pending Rewrite]
This work has been dropped- because I am rewriting it. Look forward to the new and improved "A Broken World," now available HERE on Royal Road! Three thousand years ago, Demonic creatures invaded the world. Though their power seemed irresitable, a band of heroes managed to steal the knowledge of summoning rituals and worlds from them and created, "The Millenial Summoning." A powerful magic that would bring forth a being from another world with the power to change the world forever. The first being summoned became known as "The Speaker," and he brought the power of the Gods with him. Teaching prayers and invocations that blessed humanities legions and began to push back the demons, founding of the "The Church of the Spoken Word" rose to power and a stalemate was reached. Two thousand years ago, that stalemate was broken by the second casting of "The Millenial Summoning," and the arrival of "The First Sorceress," who taught humanity the basics of magic and enchanting. With the power of the Sorceress, the mages, and the priests the tide turned and the Demonic hordes began to be shoved back, signaling hopes of a golden age for mankind. One thousand years ago, the hopes of final victory and a new dawn for mankind were dashed by traitors who slew the participants of the ritual and took their places, using the ritual to bring forth a godlike being from the demons home world, "The Demon King," for no human knew his name, erased millenia of growth reducing humanity to barely a fragment of its former glory. Now the ritual is being cast again, and a new being is being summoned... In our world, after nearly two decades of studious work, Luke Jaeger is making his dream come true. Working and going to school full time, sacrificing his health and social life in his youth, Lucas obtained Doctorates in genetics and virology, as well as associate degrees in business and accounting. The modern world is not easy, and despite it nearly driving him mad from stress, this was the bare minimum he needed to be approved for a business loan to start a company focusing on commercial genetic therapy. Despite the challange of getting his business running, Lucas feels that his work has finally paid off. Lucas's car never left the banks lot, nor was Lucas ever seen again in our world.
