“Exorcism!” I shouted, my hand out stretched.
The ghost screeched as mana tore it apart from the inside out. It turned to attack .
“Quick Attack!” I blurred, moving way faster than even that Knight on the floor above could move.
The ghost died right there, disintegrating before my eyes. I let out a breath of relief. See? It wasn’t suicide? Who ever said I couldn’t fight for myself? Now that I was back in my recently fixed Leather armor, I was in good shape. I also reset my dungeon points, and then redistributed them. There were two one-point skills in general that I had been eyeing for a while now. Especially after I had died, I had considered giving up portal and map.
The skills were Exorcism, a powerful ghost spell that did heavy damage and debuff to ghosts, and a sword called ghostbane that seed to be able to do high spiritual damage on top of physical. I disliked the idea of summoning a material item with dungeon points, but desperate situations called for desperate asures. Ghostbane with Divine Aura was a very powerful weapon, and as long as I could surprise attack the ghost, I could take them out with ease. I didn’t give up map though. Double experience was the skill that I dropped. It hurt to give it up, but giving up reset was out of the question, and map was too important to navigating this labyrinth.
Map combined with life sense, and I could even visualize the monsters ahead of . It was seriously OP. By the way, there was a ti-stop inventory in the dungeon point system too, but it was considered a second-tier item and thus it was a 5 pointer. There were higher tier ghost items too, including a ten-point necklace that just repelled ghosts entirely. Exorcism and Ghostbane just happened to be the only two I could afford.
Furthermore, as long as the ghost didn’t physically attack , my high spiritual resistance from my white mage class also kept strongly resistant. If there was more than one ghost though, I’d cast Holy Circle and run. The hallway-like paths of the dungeon were very small. Holy circle could completely block the path. In other words, I used it to stop the ghosts from chasing . As long as I kept running, they’d be blocked and have to go around. With that, they almost certainly lost track of and I could escape. Suffice it to say, I was equipped well in this dungeon, despite my initial brush with death.
I attacked another ghost. This one had the form of a soldier, which I interpreted as being a bit higher level. He wasn’t as intimidating as the knight from the floor above, but he was still troubleso. I hit him with exorcism, followed by a quick attack. He turned around and started attacking . I sanctified the ground while backing up and dodging his spiritual attack. My Basic Swordsmanship wasn’t enough to overwhelm his fighting speed. The only way I could get a hit on him was with my Quick Attack skill. I changed White Mage to Slave Master, and then lept at him with another Quick Attack.
{Slave Master has increased to level 7.}
{Bond Slave has been unlocked.}
I let out a breath. It wasn’t what I was hoping for. I was hoping for slave locator or slave communication. I had been trying to level Slave Master this way hoping I could earn sothing. Yeah, I was going down instead of up, but being able to trace Miki would be useful if I reached a dead end. Just being able to communicate with my girls would be nice. They were probably starting to wonder where I was right now. Lydia was certainly worried.
There was a movent that caught my attention. I glanced over and noticed a head poking out from the corner.
“Ee!” She suddenly ducked back.
Yeah… that weird House Fairy found about an hour after I left her unconscious and had been trailing behind ever since. She hadn’t attacked , but I still worried she could. I could cheat and fight ghosts with my dp system, but I had nothing to stop the fairy if she decided to attack again. Still, I didn’t regret freeing her.
I decided to take a quick break to allow my mana to rejuvenate. As I did so, I started going through my jobs and skills again to see if there was anything I could use to help gain an edge in the dungeon.
Checking through my jobs, I slapped my head. “Of course, True Dungeon Diver.”
It was only level 1. It would be very easy to gain 4-5 levels quickly. It was a higher tier job too, so I had high hopes for it helping . Maybe, it even offered a ans of escaping dungeons. Once I started thinking about my job and skill system, I put other things out of my mind, and had already ignored the girl, who was watching sneakily again. I finally continued on, navigating by the use of the map and my sense life. Behind , a fairy followed.
