10 One Person, Two [Character] Panels!

Chapter 10 - One Person, Two [Character] Panels!

*Splatter*

A cold light flashed, blood scattered, and a goblin fell into a pool of blood.

Around him were numerous blood pools, indicating that a massacre had just taken place, and the instigator was none other than Ethan.

Having received Falna and awakened a powerful skill, it naturally made his hands itchy.

"My overall strength has improved a lot. Not only that, my strength, speed, and reflexes have all increased significantly. So, this is the effect of 'Super-Domain Enhancement,'" Ethan realized.

In the past, he had struggled and fought bravely in the dungeon to increase his strength.

Now, just receiving Falna and awakening a skill had led to such a significant improvement.

Enhancement on both soul and body, a double reinforcement at 'Super-Domain' level greatly improved his strength.

In addition, he gained 'Immunity to Negative Effects,' so he no longer had to fear poison and the like. It was simply exhilarating.

Not only that, Ethan also discovered something interesting.

Falna and his original strength seemed like two different systems. Although both belonged to Ethan's power, they were independent of each other.

It was like having one account with two [character] panels simultaneously, and they stacked on each other without affecting each other.

This was great news; even if one day something happened to Freya and his Falna was sealed, he wouldn't become weak.

Falna is indeed amazing, unlocking human potential and even giving rise to miracles like 'skills' and 'magic.'

However, it also had significant drawbacks.

Just like Devil Fruit users feared seawater, Falna was bestowed by a god, and if something bad happened to that god, the granted power would also be sealed.

In this world, gods were eternal but could be sent back to heaven.

Once they suffered fatal injuries, the seal on their divine power would be unlocked, forcing them to return to heaven.

Although it's true that if other gods convert them, one can unseal their previously locked Falna.

However, what if during this period of weakness, enemies come knocking on your doorsteps?

That would be disastrous.

Now, Ethan has no such worries.

Even without Falna, he still possesses formidable strength, thanks to his 'system,' ensuring a bright future.

"Hmm~"

Holding the recently obtained magic stones in his hand, the next moment, Ethan began to absorb the magic energy within it.

This entire process made Ethan feel a wonderful sensation akin to 'ascension to immortality.'

After a few seconds, everything ended.

Ethan came back to his senses somewhat dissatisfied; the magic stones in his hand had turned into transparent crystals, and the magical energy had been exhausted.

"Fortunately, Freya gave me the crystal card; otherwise, it would have been a bit troublesome."

After all, money is necessary no matter where you are, and magic stones are very useful to Ethan.

Naturally, he couldn't exchange them for Valis. Even if possible, he would like to buy magic stones from others. But, the guild forbids the sales of magic stones outside making it difficult for him.

As for the dropped materials, they could earn him some money. After all, the value of dropped items on upper floors was not much.

Previously, living in the impoverished Daedalus Streets was due to a tight budget.

Even meals could only consist of some dark rye bread, a taste that Ethan vividly remembered.

*Clatter, clatter*

Some noisy sounds came from the surrounding ground.

Ethan looked over, and monsters were being born.

In the dungeon, all monsters are given birth by the dungeon itself, and the destroyed environment will also repair itself.

Moreover, the monster spawn rate around injured and weakened adventurers is significantly higher than others.

From various observations, adventurers came to understand one thing: the dungeon is likely to be alive.

Moreover, the dungeon harbors great animosity towards humans and gods alike.

Therefore, whenever adventurers enter the dungeon, they become targets of relentless monster attacks.

And if a god enters the dungeon, the dungeon, upon discovery, will erupt in a riot, giving birth to irregular black monsters to kill the god.

Ethan is currently on the sixth floor of the dungeon, where the monsters are no longer just goblins.

One of them is a creature completely black, resembling a shadow, with a round face, eyes like light bulbs, an extremely slender body, and sharp claws at the wrists.

It looks like a shadow monster.

The War Shadow, a monster that appears on the upper floors, is also known as the 'newbie killer.'

Its agility and speed make it nearly impossible for many novice adventurers to catch up, leading to potential disasters.

With sharp claws, the War Shadow can easily slice through an adventurer's armor, posing a direct threat to their lives.

Additionally, most adventurers, after becoming familiar with the battles on earlier floors, may develop overconfidence after easily defeating weaker monsters like goblins.

In such a situation, encountering a War Shadow could easily turn them into dead souls.

*Bang*

The War Shadow suddenly launched an attack, catching Ethan off guard and causing him to be directly scratched.

At the shoulder, there were several bloodstains.

Ethan glanced at them, felt it, and realized that the opponent's attack could hurt him, but the injuries were not severe, within his tolerance range.

Even if he traded injuries, he could still kill the opponent because he wasn't an ordinary person.

*Clang*

The second round of attacks came, and this time Ethan was not careless.

He thrust his sword directly forward.

The monster's sharp claws pierced Ethan's arm, but Ethan's sword also penetrated the War Shadow's body, and with a 'bang,' the War Shadow disappeared into a cloud of ashes.

"Ah~, it really hurts. I still don't know how to fight properly. My fighting style is no different from 'brawling,' just with greater strength and slightly faster speed now."

Having no prior experience, it was impossible to have combat skills.

Even after half a month of honing, he only improved his reflexes and crisis awareness.

As for combat experience, Ethan couldn't understand that kind of thing without proper guidance.

While Ethan exclaimed in pain, the wounds on his body visibly healed at a rapid pace.

Rapid regeneration, even if his hands or feet were severed, as long as Ethan's magic reserve was sufficient, he could gradually recover.

The reason Ethan was so confident in this was that on the first day, he had severed one of his hands.

Yes, looking down on goblins as mere 'small fries,' he ended up having one bite off his hand.

On that day, Ethan even thought he might bleed to death, but to his astonishment, his severed hand sprouted new flesh within less than half an hour.

Over a night, the lost hand grew back, a truly horrifying experience.

This laid the foundation for Ethan's daring and crazy fighting style, exchanging injuries for injuries with confidence.

Otherwise, only a fool would engage in such recklessness, as it was tantamount to courting death.
