The twelfth floor was sowhat like a graveyard. The atmosphere surrounding Livie and is gloomy.
We haven't encountered any monsters, but if there were any monsters, they would probably be undead types.
Looking at the clouds above, we couldn't see the sky or the sun. I was weakened in a place like this, but what could I do about it?
"Livie, stop." I heard a sound coming from a different direction other than us. Looking to my right, where the noise ca from the ground.
A hand made of bones had appeared above ground. A skeleton? The skeleton was a humanoid creature with a monster core between its ribs.
Livie was scared of the monster's sight, but to , it was only a low second-rank creature. Ending its miserable life, I shot a bolt of fire toward it. Well, it was already dead, so I ended its miserable afterlife.
"Most of the monsters might be underground. As long as you're within touching distances within , I will be able to keep you safe." I don't want an undead grabbing Livie's leg. That would traumatize her.
Walking around, the further I went in, the more undead popped up from the ground. With the amount of undead coming up, the boss should appear soon.
"Livie, increase my strength. I sense the boss." I felt another anomaly happening on this floor. The mana of this monster was in the middle of a third rank.
That wasn't bad itself, but if more anomalies were to happen, would I be able to keep Livie safe? Livie then feeds one of her magic, strengthening my magic.
What had appeared before us was a lich or magical skeleton. I couldn't tell the difference. It was a skeleton wearing many artifacts—what a rich bastard.
Wait, if we kill it, could we loot everything? Since the skeleton was flexing how much magical artifact it was wearing, couldn't I just beat it up and take it all?
It was already dead, and it might as well make itself useful by giving us its artifact. Starting a preemptive attack, I launched a beam right at its face.
If I took the skull off, the artifacts wouldn't be hard. At most, they would fall to the ground.
My attack was already at the fourth rank, and the skull broke with my beam driving through the skeleton's head.
Honestly, it was easier than I thought. "Is it supposed to be this easy?"
Livie, like , doubted if the fight was over. I knew that my power wasn't standard, so I couldn't get a feel of how strong I was.
Looking at the skeletal mage, I saw the artifacts had disappeared along with the mage. My imaginary tears started to leak.
"Char, are you alright?" My money and my heart. I was not too fond of that nickna. I had explicitly wanted Livie not to call that.
"Can you not call that? And no, the skeleton didn't drop its artifact!" How can this dungeon be so stingy?
"It's too embarrassing to call you by those." Her face had reddened, imaging the scene of her doing so.
"You don't need to give a nickna if you're not ready." I was still thinking about the artifacts. My mood has dampened from the disappointnt I had received.
With the boss gone, the door to the next floor was open. The only thing that the boss dropped was a rank three mana core. Having it in my hand, I needed nine more to go.
Walking to the next floor, I muttered, "Cheapskate." And clicked my tongue, entering the next floor.
We were now on the thirteenth floor, and fuck! It was freezing. The thirteenth floor was an ice bio of so sort.
Livie, who was on my right, was shivering. Trying to get so body heat, she clung to . I had adjusted my body heat to one comparable to a heat pack.
"Ehehe," Livie had exceptionally relaxed once she clung to . It was good that there was no snow falling. If that had happened, it would be a pain to move in.
"Do you need to be warr?" I didn't know if my heat was enough for Livie, so I asked.
"Please do." Adjusting the warmth of my body, I could see Livie in bliss.
"Will this do?" Livie nodded, aning the heat I was producing should be fine.
Now that Livie and I were in no danger from the cold, we proceeded to explore these icy plains.
I hated walking on ice. These slippery floors make it hard to move with the addition of Livie being on .
Our speed wasn't great, but we were making steady progress. Ice golems and arctic creatures were our main enemies.
While this bio wasn't, at the very least, good for , the monsters were sothing I could efficiently finish in a hit.
It had been two hours since we arrived on this floor. I could feel the mana of a stronger monster, and the boss was nearby.
The boss had a high second-rank mana signature, much weaker than the skeletal mage. Coming in close, Livie and I saw the boss.
I didn't expect the monster to be frosty, the fucking snowman. Without wasting any more ti, I finished it with a fireball to the face.
Frosty the snowman had tried to create a barrier to reduce the damage done. But my fireball was too powerful for it to be blocked.
With the boss dead, we could now go to the fourteenth floor. The snowman had dropped a black tophat giving us an artifact. I still couldn't believe that the skeleton didn't drop anything.
Picking up everything, we hurried to the next floor. Livie and I spent two hours in that frozen hell. Livie and I had slipped a few tis, it didn't bother since my magic wouldn't let freeze, but for Livie, it was different.
I wondered how much longer it would take for us to complete this commission.
