It had been a week since Mark's arrival in Orario and the second week in the new world. These days he had done nothing but go to the dungeon from morning to night and of course, there have been results. First of all, his status.

His stats have increased a lot, especially his strength and agility which have risen gratefully. Dexterity has also increased a lot, now the problem is the endurance which it increased slightly due to the fact that he tries to avoid taking damage in order not to receive double the pain. It was not only his stats that were increased, but he managed to unlock a new ability called 'mana percepetion', thanks to the continuous hours of meditation.

The ability itself wasn't powerful, he could see the mana even though he wasn't meditating, but the guide told him that if he could manipulate that mana to make magic, he would be able to increase his magic stat which until now stood unchanged.

Another thing he noticed was that he underestimated 'limit break' again. Initially, he thought that the ability only doubled the increase in stats, but that's not the case. He discovered that fight after fight he became more skilled in managing battles, in fact, now he no longer had problems managing the 4th floor, which is unthinkable for a beginner adventurer surprising even Eina.

--- POV Mark ---

Getting out of bed, Mark stretched and immediately went to get ready. Once ready he left the room, walked down the stairs only to meet Ryuu.

"Good morning Miss Ryuu." -Said Mark with a polite smile.

"Hello Mr. Mark, if you are looking for the breakfast basket it is on the counter." -Replied in the usual tone with little emotion.

Many would wonder why Mark is still at the House of Fertility, the answer is simple, he couldn't leave. When the days he paid for the nights were over, he let Ms. Mia know he was leaving, the problem was Chloe, who clung to his body and did not let him leave and no matter how hard he tried to wriggle out he couldn't get out of it. That day he really had the urge to cut her with his sword.

Seeing the scene, Mia could only sigh and proposed a deal to continue to live here for half the price. Hearing the offer Mark finally accepted as if he went to another inn he would have to pay more. After hearing that Mark would stay, Chloe finally free him even though the words she spoke to him later caused the veins in his temple to contract.

<<If you wanted to stay that long, you just had to say it nya.>> -After giving him a wink she immediately ran away.

Just thinking back to the scene made Mark headaches. Taking a deep breath, he headed for the dungeon, today he would immediately go to the 5th floor since the first 4 were now giving him little experience.

Arriving at the dungeon he easily passed the first 4 floors and went down to the 5th floor. The 5th floor was different from the previous ones, the walls were now a light green and the dungeon structure starts to change becoming more complex.

'Guide, give me a report of the floor.' - He said while checking the surroundings.

Even though he was exploring this floor for the first time, he still decided to activate 'limit break' to get used to support the pain.

[from the 5th to the 7th floor there are no differences, the birth of monsters is faster. The monsters you can encounter are Shadow Warrior with its claws that look like knives, Froog Shooter who can perform ranged attacks with its tongue, and the most dangerous the Killer Ants.]

'Let me guess, giant ants'

[Exactly, they are bigger than the lizards on the upper floors, also if in crisis they can call back reinforcements.]

After receiving the information, it didn't take long to meet the first monster. The monster looked like a large distorted shadow with extremely sharp claws.

The moment Mark saw him, the shadow also looked at him and without the slightest hesitation, both started running towards the opponent. When the monster was close to him he tried to slash him with its claws, but Mark dodged it to the side only to see that the monster was attacking him again, so he was forced to parry with the sword.

After receiving the hit, Mark backs off a few steps.

'Those long arms are annoying.' -

With that thought, he resumed the attack. Seeing that the human was approaching, the shadow warrior tried to hit him, but as before Mark dodged and cut off his arm.

'Graaa!' - The monster screamed in pain and tried to hit Mark with the other arm. Repeating the strategy he dodged the blow and cut off its other arm, having cut off the monster's arms he immediately went to stab it since it had no way to attack him anymore.

'It was a good strategy to weaken him and then kill him, but I make too many unnecessary movements.'

For some time now Mark has been evaluating himself after each fight to try to improve himself and with today's battle he has realized that the monsters will get stronger and stronger and to withstand the fights he has to find a way to increase his endurance.

Thus, continuing his exploration he encountered two other shadow warriors whom he defeated with the strategy of the first. While he was collecting the stones he saw many adventurers who were running away. Approaching one who was taking a breath from the run, he asked.

"Why are you all running away?"

"did you not hear?! The minotaurs have appeared on the fifth floor, you better escape! " -With those words, the adventurer kept running away.

'Guide you didn't tell me there were also minotaurs'

[The minotaur is a monster that lives between the 15th and 17th floors. It has high strength and agility and is considered the strongest monster in the Middle Floors, I recommend that the host to retire.]

'Tsk I managed to hunt only three monsters.'

Annoyed, he too ran towards the exit of the dungeon. Having obtained some stones, he decided to go to the guild to sell them and get information about what happened.

After a short walk, he arrived at the guild, and the moment he entered, he was immediately greeted by Eina who had a worried face.

"Fortunately, Mark you are fine, I just received the news about the minotaur accident."

"Me too, I was on the fifth floor when I saw the adventurers escape."

"HAAAA! You were alone on the fifth floor! " -She screamed.

"It's crazy to go down there without a party, I remember you that you've only been here at Orario for a week" -She said looking at him seriously.

"Eina you know very well that I'm not the type who would go down without having considered the consequences." -Said Mark calmly.

Hearing Mark's words, Eina also had to agree, many adventurers would enter the dungeon without asking for any information, while Mark every time he came to the guild would ask her about the monsters' weaknesses and their habits.

While Eina was trying to find something to counter his words, the guild doors opened and a boy covered in blood entered who screamed at the top of his throat.

"Miss Eina give me the information on Aiz Wallenstein!" - Said the boy showing the purest and silly smile that Mark had ever seen.

Valis: 15,000.
