Chapter 5 - Chapter 5: Still Dungeon Diving?

[Warrior's Roar Activated]

I released a roar which surprised a group of puppets 4 in front of me, they all rushed at me. 

Their movements were a bit more sluggish than before. 

I sliced the neck of the first, and dodged a strike from the second and another from the third

 

I then looked down at the sword in my hand. I smiled as then coated my sword in flames.

[Skill Learned Fire Coat - You're now able to coat your weapons with fire. Mp Cost: Varies.]

I then stabbed the nearby puppet which burst in flames. 

"Okay these guys are super flammable. Good to know." I then dashed towards the next one as I sliced off its head. 

Then the final puppet tried striking me with a left but I countered chopping off his left arm and I slashed his body from its hip up to the shoulder. 

[You've leveled up!]

[Due to leveling up you've gained 5 stat points.]

[Sword Proficiency has leveled up

[Fire Magic has leveled up! 2×]

[Light Armour Proficiency has leveled up! 2×]

[Warrior's Roar has leveled up!]

[Block has leveled up!]

I guess the skills used also automatically level up when I level up!

[+1 Int for getting it half right.]

Wait what? I then focused on my status. It seems my Str went up by a large margin and again. 

I guess I'll throw about 3 points into End and the last two into Luk it would help to get a bit luckier.

"Alright let's move on." 

And so I kept walking down the corridor. 

While walking I felt my left foot sink into the floor. And a trap door opened to which arrows flew out of. 

I tried my best dodging, but two got me in the arm. 

[-12 Hp]

[You are now under the Mid-Bleeding effect. You will lose 3 hp every 10 seconds.]

'Shit this hurts!' I thought while gritting my teeth. 

I should've used observe on everything! 

Fuck!

'Shit shit shit!' I grabbed one of the arrows and plucked it out of my hand and threw it to the floor causing it to snap. 

[-4 Hp]

[Bleeding has now increased. You'll now lose 4 hp every 10 seconds.]

I then plucked out the second arrow. Luckily it went into one of my arm guards so the bleeding wasn't too bad, it was just a minor wound. 

This caused me to lose 1 hp, and also caused my bleeding status to get slightly worse, now I'm losing 5 hp every 9 seconds. 

Normally a person should never remove an object they were stabbed with or else the bleeding will get worse like with me. 

But I can take such a risk.

[Medium Health Potion - Restores a person Hp by 100.]

The liquid was red and the bottle of the potion was really fancy looking like something you'd see in a fantasy world.

I took off the cap and jugged the entire thing. 

[+100 Hp restored]

I looked at my hoodie which now had a hole in it. It was my favorite hoodie too. 

I just loved the blue star shapes. The shape of a star was something I loved ever since I was kid. 

Getting up I swing my arm and flex my fingers for a bit. 

"Cool not even a scar's left!" I then walked off to find more mobs. 

I made sure to use observe a lot. At one point I nearly activated a saw blade trap. 

Made sure to avoid that. 

Though a minute later I found a fork in the road. One went straight and the other went one left. 

Curiosity got the best of me and I used to observe but got nothing. 

So I went down the second path. While using observe. While walking I made a left turn. 

I saw a room with five puppets, two of them were new. 

[Puppet Swordsman Lv.5]

[Puppet Swordsman Lv.5]

There was also a chest in the corner of the room. It didn't look important as the puppets didn't seem to be gaurding it.

I then created three fireballs about the size of a tennis ball in the palm of my hand, a skill I learned a bit ago and I rushed in. I threw them at the normal puppets. 

Which caused them to light up ablaze. 

I block an attack from one of the puppet swordsmen. I kicked it away and duck under a slash. 

[You've gained the skill Danger Sense - (Passive) - Desc: You're now able to sense danger, sorta.]

I used [Fire Coat] and countered with a slash chopping the puppet in half.

I sensed a tingle from behind and immediately placed up my sword to block. 

*Clang!* 

The flames on my sword flickered as steel met steel. I slowly but surely pushed back the puppet. It seemed I beat it in the strength department.

I managed to push it off of me, sending it to the floor. 

I then used the last of my Mp and fired off a fireball about the size of a basketball ball burning it to cinders. 

I dropped to the floor tired. 

"Holy shit." 

"This is fun as hell!" I said with a smile as a surge of happiness bubbled inside of me. 

Now let's see what these guys were guarding. 

I walked over to the chest and observed. Nothing was wrong with the chest, no mimics, no overly complicated mechanisms. 

It was all dandy. 

Though the thing was locked, I placed my sword in inventory and called my keyblade. 

I then gently tapped it and the chest opened. 

[Please check your inventory for loot]

Wait, my auto loot feature works with chests too? Sick!

I opened my inventory and saw that I had a bunch of junk like puppet parts and splinters from them. 

I did have two small Hp potions though and three small Sp potions. 

I then kept checking and saw I had some munny. I tapped it and.

[+2000 Munny]

I then saw a new weapon in my inventory: a sword, a pirate's cutlass to look exact. 

[Cutlass - Desc: It's cutlass dum dum. +47 Atk. 42/50 Durability]

Huh? Its durability is down a bit. 

Though I wonder if I can dual wield? 

… 

I sliced my way through a puppet while dodging an attack from a puppet swordsman.

I brought down my swords, slicing them into three parts. 

[You have learned Dual Wielding]

Cool.
