Chapter 4 - Even More Grinding
(edited)
Yuji wakes up and walks downstairs. He goes into the bathroom and washed his face. He puts on the weighted vests and goes outside.
"Saitama training! Here we go!"
Yuji starts jogging in a random direction as he already felt himself get stronger. He turns on Mana shield for it to level up while he's running.

"Hah, that wasn't as hard as I thought it was. Is it because of my stats? Status Screen" Yuji said

"An title? When didn't it show a alert for it? I shouldn't think about it too much though"
"Create instant dungeon ogres!" Yuji exclaimed
Like last time, everything was quiet. But you could hear loud stomping on the ground. Yuji dashes at one of the ogres with the Mana sword and swings at it.
['Skilled Sword' level increased by 1]
"Striking Blow!"
['Striking Blow' level increased by 1]
Yuji hits the ogre but it doesn't die in one hit. The ogre hits Yuji with the hammer. Yuji crashes back into house, nearly surviving with only 1 HP.
"Damn it! I got too cocky! Escape instant dungeon!"
But it didn't work. He couldn't escape his own dungeon.
"Is it because of my level difference?! Damn it, I guess I have no other choice. I'll have to attack from long-ranges" Yuji said
"Spinning Mana sword!"
"Spinning Mana sword!"
"Spinning Mana sword!"
"Spinning Mana sword!"
['Spinning Mana Sword' level has increased by 1]
All 4 swords pierced and exploded the ogre, but it didn't die. It still had about a quarter of health left.
"Oh yeah! I have a wand!"
Yuji takes out the wand from his inventory and summons 3 more swords to finish the job. the ogre finally dies as Yuji keep getting alerts.

Yuji adds 20 points into Vitality and leaves the other points for future use.
"I need another skill that can kill a lot of monsters with just one hit. The spear isn't enough, I want this skill to be used as a last resort when nothing else works" Yuji said
Suddenly, Yuji gets an idea. He holds his wand in the air and starts gathering Mana. He gathers so much Mana that it creates an giant Mana ball above him.
"This is basically just a Spirit bomb. What can I do to make it stronger? Hm.....Ah! I know!"
'Shape into Cube'
"This may look like just a normal giant cube attack, But the fun really happens when it hits the floor!"
Yuji throws the cube at a group of ogres. The cube crushes them as it goes in the ground. Mana emerges from the ground starts covering the ground with an blue light.
"Since I have Mana Affinity, I can do this!"
He summons Mana spikes out of the ground, impaling every ogre in his radius. He makes chains that grabs other ogres that didn't get caught by the spikes and stops them from moving.
[You've thought of a new skill]
[What will you name the skill?]
"A name? Hm...how about Mana Domain"
[Mana Domain (active) lv 1 exp: 0.0%]
[A skill to hit enemies and take over territory. This gains the user of this attack a advantage. Supplying this skill with more Mana makes it stronger and harder to stop. This skill has amazing potential if upgraded]
"This is so overpowered!"
"That move took almost all of my Mana. However, with Wisdom it shouldn't take long to recover"
He throws 5 Mana swords at them and hits the ground. Suddenly, a great explosion pushes Yuji back from his spot.

"So many exp!"
"Giant spinning Mana spear!"
"Giant spinning Mana spear!"
"That actually worked? I can only hold 2 of these right now but it'll still get me exp!"
Yuji threw both spears on the ground, causing a huge explosion. He picked up the items dropped of the ground but it wasn't anything special, the only useful items were money.
"That's enough for now. I don't want to take it too far, I'm not sure if I'm strong enough to beat the two-headed ogre"
"Escape instant dungeon!" Yuji yelled out
Everything started to become loud again. There was no bodies or Mana covering the ground and you could hear people talking. Yuji walks back into his house and then into his room. He sits down in front of his computer and thinks.
"Can Martial Arts books work? Hopefully it does"
Yuji searched online and found a book called Qigong. The book is mainly about healing yourself using chi. Yuji without a second thought bought it.

"Finally I got the book!"
[Would you like to learn 'Qigong'?]
[Y/N]
"Yes it works!"
Yuji hits the yes button and the book disappears from his hand. He walks outside to his backyard and stands there.
"Create instant dungeon!"
[Make instant dungeon has leveled up 1 time]
[You can now use more types of instant dungeons]
"Finally! Escape instant dungeon!"
"Create Time-Twisted dungeon!"
Everything once again went quiet and only Yuji's breathing could be heard.
"If I'm correct, 2 hours in here should be 1 hour out there. Time to start leveling up my skills!"
