Year 395 of the Holy Calendar - First floor of the Titan Dungeon
(Alastor POV)
Now, where should I start?
("If you get lost, don't move from where you are and pay attention to your surroundings") Mom
"My surroundings..."
Titan dungeon.
Grandma Maria used to tell me stories about this place and how she reached her highest level here.
Hidden under the Titan castle, one of the most dangerous dungeons in the Zounen continent.
Each floor is at least as big as the Royal Capital with a boss monster defending each stair leading deeper.
Even Grandma Maria at her peak was only capable of reaching the fifth floor...
"Can I do this?"
No.
... This kind of mindset will not take me anywhere.
"I will do this!"
Without hesitation!
"Onwards!"
I step forward to the first intersection.
......
...
The skeletons appear from the ground and walls without any sign and thus I don't have time to sleep or rest.
"Another one?" Alastor
I need to reach the master of the floor.
"SHHA!" Skeleton Z-A
{SYSTEM MESSAGE - LEVEL UP}
I defeat the 27th skeleton with a single swing of my weapon.
"..." Alastor
The only resting place in this dungeon is also the most dangerous, the boss room. Only after defeating him, I will have some time to recover before moving on.
"SHA!" Skeleton Z-B
Another comes out of the ground, but as individuals, they don't require any skills to be defeated.
"Out of my way!"
......
...
After many hours of defeating skeletons, I am starting to feel hungry.
*gruuu*
My stomach is already asking for food.
"I need to eat something"
I do have some emergency water on my waist, but no food.
"Looks like it's time"
A good adventurer needs to procure his food wherever he is, and this place is no exception.
"I wonder what it tastes like"
I take out of my bag the only organic thing on this floor, the Lizardman Skeletons.
"I would have liked to get to the next floor before I had to do this"
I place the cleanest leg and arm bones on the floor.
"It is useful that the floor is made only of flat and uniform stones, now..."
With my war hammer, I carefully crush them until they form dust.
"Let's see..."
I take a bit of the almost pulverized bone and throw it inside my mouth.
*chomp*
Hmm, it is still crunchy.
*chomp*
It tastes like chicken.
"It could be worse"
This will fill me up for some time.
*chomp*
I am fine for now, but I need to hurry.
The first floor is supposed to be the smallest of them, but if I run out of water I am dead.
*chomp*
I have three days of water in my canteen and a third of it has already disappeared.
"I need to hurry up"
*chomp*"*chomp*"
......
...
At the end of the second day, I finally found it.
"At last" Alastor
A three-meter-high double stone door without a handle stands in front of me.
