[Back to the host: Those are the link percentages of this body’s skill with your soul.]
"What will happen when it reaches 100%?"
[The Acquired skill with a 100% link will be permanently shifted into the regular ’skill column,’ and the host will be able to take it back to the real world.]
"Wait, for real?"
[Yes host]
"Damn, baby!"
This ti, this news really ca as an unexpected surprise to .
But when I gave it so thought, it actually beca understandable.
My main world skills were already connected to my soul thanks to the system, but I had to manually connect my other skills to my soul in order to take them back.
Which led to my next query.
’How do I increase the link percentage of the skill?’
[By getting more familiar with and proficient in that skill.]
’So basically, the more I use, understand, and beco natural at using a skill, the more it will be linked to my soul?’
[Yes host.]
’That’s easy, as soon as I get free, I can complete it in no ti.’
Considering how just one use of Chaos Ritual brought up the link percentage to 4%, I was confident it wouldn’t take long to 100% link these two skills.
And this ti, I was right.
....
’Fuck yeah!’
Since being sent ho from the hospital a week ago, I had been diligently training, exploring dungeons at my level, and leveling up.
With the Monster cores I obtained from completing the Dungeons, I would randomly summon Chaos monsters and cause havoc in the city, which would again help level up.
Through training with Rapid Growth, Clearing Dungeon Cracks, and summoning Chaos monsters, my stats, skill links, and level increased at an incredible rate.
Just thinking about my progress made excited.
"Whoa~!"
Taking a deep breath, I cald myself down.
At the mont, I was in another one of the Dungeon Cracks.
Compared to the first ti when I was nervous, I was now strangely used to it.
’Ho! What’s this?"
Traces on the ground caught my eye, and I sat down to look at the footprints.
With my knowledge of the storyline, and my experience in the last few dungeons similar to this one, it was easy to identify the monster.
"A goblin?"
A disgusting looking green, small, humanoid monster.
’’My luck seems to be good today."
I thought I would search the forest all day looking for the monsters, but who knew Lady Luck was in my favor today.
Without wasting any ti, I followed the trail, and it wasn’t long before I saw three goblins devouring a carcass.
The goblins buried their heads in the corpse without any vigilance.
It was a violent and disgusting scene, but I had learned to hold my vomit.
Nonetheless, I wasn’t immune to it.
So, in order to kill them imdiately, I made a pistol with my middle and index fingers.
Then, aiming at a goblin’s head, I held my breath and cast a spell.
『Magic Bullet』
It was the most fundantal attacking spell, which I had only recently mastered after much struggle and thanks to my Rapid Growth.
Still, it was worth every second because, even though it was the most basic spell, its power and range depended on the caster’s mana.
So to say, perfect for , who excelled in stats.
The light blue mana gathered at my fingertips and was shot like a bullet.
Swoosh!
At the sa ti as the sound of the wind cutting ca, a goblin’s head exploded.
Bang!
[Ding! You have killed a Goblin.]
The prompt appeared for a quick second in the corner of my vision and then disappeared after I switched off the killing notifications.
[Skill Activated: Stealth]
With my skill activated, I quickly drew my sword and moved quietly towards the remaining goblins.
"Keeek?!"
"Khek, hek!"
They were on high alert after the death of their comrade and looked in all directions.
Right when one of them looked warily and turned his back on , I erged from the cover of a nearby tree.
Shing!
With full force, my carbon Steel sword cut through the Goblin’s neck.
Decapitating him in an instant, his head flying in the air.
"Keeeee!!"
Screaming, the remaining one saw and ran toward , since the attack undid my stealth.
Even though two of them were killed in an instant, the fact that the remaining one also rushed at showed their intelligence.
’Low IQ as always.’
I scowled at the reckless guy who rushed at without realizing the sword was around his neck.
His dagger was pointed at .
"Keeeeek!"
He charged at barefoot; his movents were obvious, and it was easy to spot gaps as I watched silently.
With a quick strike, following the path in my head, I first blew its dagger away.
Ting!
’Easy.’
The goblin had no chance against , who was almost double his level.
It was almost a child’s play that I was bored of, so I kicked him in the hand and stabbed the struggling goblin on the ground, through the heart.
"Keeekh...!"
The noisy goblin beca quiet.
Before awakening, I was barely able to survive against a goblin 1 vs. 1, but now it was too easy to kill one.
It was so easy, like dealing with a child.
"As expected, the Mana Bullet was overkill and a waste of mana."
These goblins wouldn’t be much of a problem, but in future, I would have to be careful of my actions and usage of mana.
’Better to create a habit from the start.’
Next, I cut open the chests of three goblins, but I couldn’t find the Monster core anywhere.
"Ridiculous!’
Only one out of 3–4 level 15 monsters had a Monster core in their chest.
That was Hunter’s main source of inco, and mine too, for the Chaos Ritual.
In my mind, I wanted to collect as many Monster cores as I could, but I knew it was difficult to collect them in low level Cracks.
"Hmm... Let’s see ahead, maybe the boss will give so good news.’
Following the trail again, I slaughtered the goblins that I encountered.
The traces left by the them were so easy to see that if you followed the trail, goblins would certainly appear.
Every three or four goblins I t were killed with one swing of my sword.
In a flash, I continued to locate them and spent the next hour slaughtering goblins.
Eventually, I was left with five goblins that were particularly large.
"These guys are the bosses."
The goblin bosses, who had also seen , glared at and took up their axes and daggers.
They were filled with rage, probably realizing that all of their minions were dead.
Without wasting any ti, I pointed my fingers towards them like a pistol, and cast the spell.
『Magic Bullet』
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
They were the bosses, so I went for the head, and three of them managed to duck out of the way with only a bullet grazing one of their cheeks.
However, the other two boss goblins behind them were unable to flee in ti and died instantly after getting a hole in the forehead.
"Krah!"
"Kheik!"
"Khiek!"
The remaining three goblins got even more enraged and charged towards .
Pulling my hand back, I drew my sword.
Seeing them rush toward raised my alertness.
Unquestionably, when compared to regular goblins, their montum was incredible.
[Skill Activated: Basic Swordsmanship]
My senses sharpened in concentration.
Their sll beca distinguishable, and the wriggling of their muscles was clearly visible to .
"Keeeeek!"
Despite running at the sa ti, they had a timing gap.
The first goblin to arrive drew a dagger.
Swung!
In response, I quickly swung my sword at his wrist, severing it with a single blow.
"Kikkik!!"
Ignoring the screaming goblin grabbing his severed hand, I took a big step back.
An ax and a dagger approached before I knew it.
Clank!
I blocked the ax and dodged the dagger.
Swoosh!
The dagger went past without hitting , and the balance of the goblin was lost.
Imdiately, I pushed the ax away and blew off the staggering goblin’s head, then kicked the headless corpse and used the recoil to back off.
There were now two goblins left.
"At least one has an amputated wrist and is crying out."
"Whoa."
Nevertheless, in a few more seconds, one of their heads was rolling on the floor like everyone else’s.
After a period of intense focus, the world started to move again and I could hear my heartbeat in my ears.
I knew that I could win rationally enough.
However, it was like my blood was boiling when I actually took the risk and hunted monsters.
’This is the life of the strong."
I aid my sword at the last hesitant goblin boss, feeling the joy.
[Ding! You have leveled up]
[Congratulations! You have cleared the dungeon.]
Finally, the prompt appeared after so long, along with the exit portal.
But before exiting, I took out the monster cores from the corpses scattered on the ground.
Then I put them all in my system storage and exited the Dungeon.
"Congratulations! Young Master."
As expected, as soon as I got out , I heard Albert’s voice, who was waiting for .
"Thank you, but please take care of the completion formalities."
"Ah yes! You were so fast, the patriarch will be proud to hear it."
"Congratulations! Adrian."
While Albert and I were chatting, a woman with black hair and large breasts congratulated from the side and pulled my attention.
However, I wasn’t the least surprised by her presence.
Instead, a cheeky smile appeared on my face, as I leaned forward and whispered in her ears.
"Thank you, Mina, but shouldn’t you give so reward?"
"Whatever you say."
"Then follow , and tell your parents you won’t be going ho tonight."
Mina lowered her head, her face flushed red, but she dare not reject here.
"Y...yes."
Not that she wanted to anyway.
’I wonder how Daisy will react looking at her best friend in my arms, hehehe.’
