You have slain a Lv 78 Spectre! Gained 396,000 Exp (220%)

"Woah. Light magic is super effective, only needing one attack."

The duo was back to their normal dungeon grind, and Sol had been giving light magic a try along with a few other new skills. Even though [Light Spear] was overall weaker than [Explosion] or [Incinerate], not having the damage radius or continuous damage of either, it completely destroyed the undead. This was because of the antithetical relationship between light and dark magic.

These undead were able to move and live because of dark magic and its variations like necromancy, but when they were attacked by such a concentrated spear of light, their entire being would begin to unravel. The same could happen with a concentrated attack of dark magic on light based beings. When the opposing force was introduced into their bodies, light constructs would similarly be destroyed by the opposing energy being inserted into their body.

With the two no longer being hindered by other adventurers, they were able to blaze past the enemies of the 14th floor.

"[Wind Stride]!"

Sol cast an intermediate wind spell that enhanced the duo’s speed. With the spell, the two were able to move even faster without having to stop to kill an enemy or two on the way.

Although Sol was able to do this before, they refrained from going too fast in fear of waltzing directly into traps.

Sol put on a monocle as he thought to himself, ’Luckily traps are no longer a problem.’

Glint Glass

Rare

Skills:

[Highlight] Lv 5, [Mana Perception] Lv 4

[Highlight] Lv 5: Improves the wearer’s vision and automatically marks abnormalities in their surroundings. Range 25 feet.

Ignoring the useless [Mana Perception] as he already had a higher level version of it, [Highlight] made it much easier to notice anything out of place. This meant that Sol could lead the way and avoid anything that was suspicious while Amber followed closely behind.

’The only downside is how awful it looks.’

Sol knew some people could pull off a monocle, but not him; his face was not mature, nor did he have the appropriate clothes that went well with it. It made Sol wonder who designed it this way when it would be used by adventurers.

With the two going much faster, they were able to reach the other side of the floor within six hours.

Sol turned to Amber excitedly, "We can do two floors a day at this rate! Oh, that is if you are ready to keep going. Want to rest for an hour or two first?"

Having learned from his previous mistake, Sol asked for Amber’s input because if he didn’t, she would keep quiet like usual and overexert herself again.

"One."

"One hour? Sure, I can make some food as well."

The two made their way down the stairs, and Sol used earth magic to create a simple cooking station.

After whipping up a light but filling meal, Amber sat and rested while Sol spent the remaining time improving his other skills with [Reinterpret].

Within the time limit of under an hour, Sol was unable to do much, but he tried to level up [Snap Punch]. It was one of his easier to comprehend skills, so Sol believed he could make some good progress.

After going over every step in the technique, Sol managed to make it slightly faster, but even before leaving the white room, he knew it wasn’t enough of an improvement to level it up.

’It’s fine. I’ll have time to improve it later when we get to the 16th floor.’

Sol didn’t mind it too much; one hour was not a lot of time to improve even with such a great learning environment. Exiting the white room, Sol noticed Amber was ready to go.

Sol put on the tacky monocle as he stood up.

"Alright let’s go, but keep an eye out on materials. Even though we have a lot, it never hurts to get more."

Amber gave a simple nod.

"Let’s go then, [Wind Stride]!"

…

While running through the 15th floor of Necropolis, Sol noticed a large mass of mana nearby.

’Could it be?’

Sol stopped running and gestured towards Amber to stop as well.

"I think I found the Shadow Amalgamation. Let’s quietly approach—never mind! It already found us! Get Ready!"

The large mass of mana had begun moving towards their destination at a frightening speed.

Amber unsheathed her daggers, and Sol took out his Lipon and pulled the trigger, releasing a large axe made of solid rock. It was a surreal sight of solid rocks growing out of the trigger, forming an axe stronger than steel.

The reason Sol had an earth element axe was that he had been giving other weapon patterns and elements a try. Their enemies weren’t much of a challenge, making it a good opportunity to practice, but with the enemy fast approaching, Sol didn’t have the time to swap it back to the sword pattern he was the most comfortable with.

’It’s fine, most of my skills can also be used with the axe.’

Just as the axe finished forming, a loud thumping sound could be heard, followed by the sound of ghastly groans and moans. It was as if a stampede of orcs was heading their way.

From around the corner, a hand of a giant figure came barreling down the hallway. It was massive, taking almost the entire hallway, which could easily fit two carriages. It was a large round mass of dead corpses with over fifty limbs flailing wildly. The countless heads that popped out in places that should have a head groaned in pain as if their own existence pained them.

Sol’s eyes shot wide open. Though he had read of it beforehand in the dungeon guide, the picture they provided didn’t convey how grotesque and vile this creature truly looked.

"A Shadow Amalgamation!"
