First Dungeon

—Four Days later—

(First POV)

I sat on a bench in some joggers and a sweatshirt in some running shoes as I drank some cold water. Afterwards a screen appeared in front of me asking I wanted to use the stamina potion or store it.

I chose to use it and a blue potion appeared in my lap. It was hot as hell outside so there wasn't many people here and none were around me at all anyway.

After drinking the potion the fatigue I felt before completely disappeared. That feeling was still weird to me, but I could get use to it.

'Status.'

Looking at my status, I saw that I had one SM and tapped it. Seeing the message I was relived. The system message was about the first dungeon finally being available.

I got up and walked to my apartment so that I can finally start leveling up. I was stronger, but I could probably get more SP from leveling up and my other stats probably increased as well.

…

—Apartment Complex—

Going into my room I closed the blinds and curtains to make sure no one sees what's happening in here. I then called on the system and tapped the ID option. The only dungeon that I could select was the [E-rank dungeon]

It didn't have a specific title, but the rank told me that it was either on par with me or stronger. After tapping it, I got a message asking if I was sure and after breathing in I tapped yes.

In a burst of light so blinding I had to close my eyes. In the next moment I felt a breeze sweep across my face and I opened my eyes. I was in some forest from what it looked like. It was almost dark and the trees were huge, the wind was howling and there was a huge new moon in the sky.

Suddenly a chill ran down my back and immediately I ducked as a something went over my back. I jumped to my feet and with the moonlight illuminating the forest I saw that right in front of me was a wolf.

This wolf however had white fur with bones showing. It looked like zombie wolves, but it also had spikes on a tail that lead to a scorpion like stinger. Not only that, but it was way bigger than me.

It looked at me menacingly as I swallowed some spit that was in my mouth from nervousness. I took a sword out from my inventory and got into an offensive stance. It was just an imitation, but it was all I knew for now.

The sword I'm holding is a C-rank sword and I have three of them. They were gifts from the random box reward from the daily quest. The wolf lunged at me with its razor sharp claws out and I jumped back.

While I was in the air, I put the sword in front of my chest and blacked a hit from the stinger, but mg body was sent into a tree.

The force was so great, my body left a print in the tree, but I got out from it as the wolf again lunged at me. After dodging the wolf it's body crashed into the tree almost snapping it in half.

I saw it look a bit disoriented and immediately took the chance to attack it. I dashed forward and swung my sword at its head, but it's tail suddenly shot forward as it jumped back.

My blade sliced through the tail cutting it off effortlessly. It's body didn't leak blood, but it had this neon green acid that was melting into the ground.

Looking at the wolf that was now in a low stance with its hairs frizzled and it's teeth bared at me along with the corrosive acid dripping from it mouth, I also got in a low stance as we started circling each other.

It growled at me at times which almost made my heart feel like it was being played with. It felt like it was installing fear into me. Finally I decided to take the first move.

With its tail out of the way if I can get a good hit it's game over.

My sudden burst of speed looked like it caught the wolf off guard as it was late to run at me. Quickly I tightened my grip onto my hilt as I swung the sword with all my strength towards the wolves neck.

I felt no resistance as the claws of the wolf that was about to hit me was sliced off of its paw as it's head fell to the ground. Nothing could be heard as I put the wolf into my inventory.

I breathed out a breath of relief, but I didn't let my guard down. Instead of sitting in the open I ran at a low pace into the forest to find some cover. Suddenly from my left another wild jumped out as I rolled and continued to run forward with it on my right side.

Looking over at it, in a burst of speed I ran to it and cut its head off along with the stinger that tried to block my sword. Before I could do anything another wolf jumped from the tree behind me and was going to bite me.

I jumped back as it landed on its feet, but before it could react I ran forward and cut its head in half. I put both of the bodies into my storage and climbed up a tree.

I was using the leaves as cover since they basically concealed my whole body. I had gotten two messages that I leveled up, but ignored them, so I decided to check it now.

Seeing that I had something in the skill section I was about to tap it when the tree I was in started falling. I jumped out holding onto the sword and below me was about ten wolves around the tree.

Three of their stingers came my way as I was falling down and my body reacted on its own as it cut off the stingers. I landed right on top of a wolf and stabbed the sword into its head.

I didn't want to stay still while I was surrounded, so immediately I cut the head off a wolf to my left and with another swing of the sword I cut off another's head.

Jumping back to gain some distance from the crowd, I looked at the wolves with a sharp gaze as they did the same. At this point I felt like I was slowly starting to get tired.

'For now I'll just have to push through it.' I thought and ran back into the pack of 7 wolves.

I wasn't keep track of time as I continued to run through the forest, kill wolves, collect bodies, rest and repeat. I continued to level up and hadn't checked my status yet. I did however sell some of the bodies after they were automatically cut into pieces and items separated in my inventory.

I so gained the title of [Beast Killer]. It gives me a 30% increase in damage and endurance when fighting beast type monsters.

I used the shop to buy some health and stamina potions. I also had some items that dropped from just killing them. As of now I had two health potions, three stamina potions, and my last sword.

"Should I go back now or should I clear it completely? I don't know what time it is in the real world, but honestly does it matter?" I mumbled as I sat on a rock leaning against a tree.

"Is there even a way to clear this place?" I said with a sigh. Just as he was thinking that another wold jumped out of the bushes and my hand blurred before the crisp sound of a bone snapping was head.

I punched the wolf right in the jaw and its head look like it was doing a U turn. The body fell to the ground, but was absorbed into my inventory.

*ROOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAR*

A roar so loud it echoed into the forest shaking the ground and causing strong enough winds to shake the trees. I was startled by this and jumped to my feet as I held onto my sword tightly.

'What the hell was that!?' I thought as I could feel sweat dripped down my back. The roar mad me get goosebumps and all of my senses were on edge.

"I should probably just go back now, but I have to see what that thing was. I might not be able to level up like this again." I muttered and with all the courage I could muster I dashed off in the direction of the roar.
