26 First Dungeon Loot

[Wednesday FEB. 21, 2024]

[Inside the Gari Mountains Dungeon]

After following the light of the Ghost 'Switch Monster' as I stopped and see 'it' being sucked into a spirit girls' hand as she start mushing it like a clay in her hands.

It's a trap is what I immediately feel as I only see a single monster here in a room that also looks weak. As I contemplate on how to end it quickly as I don't know what that spirit can do. Creating constructs for long ranges I fitted them with sharp points and bunch them all together as it looks like a sandworm or something like a steampunk drill with a diameter of my waist. Then I imagine it to spin as I begin my attack.

*Swish!**Zzzzt!**ShrieeeeeEeeeek!*

My attack landed and 'pierce' its body as It continue to move forward. While the spirit Immediately shrieks loud enough for me to cover my ears as I feel the ground starts to rumble and see the spirit girl starts moving its hand as I see the light she's holding starts to form bigger.

Not knowing what it will do I immediately turn my construct and attack its head hoping that it may cancel what its doing, As I see skeletons popping out of the ground either with or without weapons.

*Swish!**Zzzzt!**ShrieeeeeEeeeek!*

Its seems 'piercing' or 'obliterating' its head cancels what its doing as the light that started to form a shape 'poof!' out of existence then again get collected again in her hands, meaning she's still alive as she starts moving backwards slowly as the skeletons that popping up on the ground are all of them are out now and starts moving either to shield the spirit or surround me.

Canceling the gigantic construct and make a smaller one as I also make the piercing head spin, summons a satellite barrier the size of me and make it hove on my back and another one the size of a shield in front of me, readying my staff as I start running towards the spirit since that is the only monster I know nothing about even if it looks like a girl it has a different life signal than other humans.

The battle ended quickly but I don't know since I just smash anything in front of me of pierce the spirit when I see it with my construct or the things it summoned. And with a final shriek as it looks towards me it dissolve into particle of light as well as its other spirits which she summons and it only took me a few minutes as the skeletons to stopped popping out the ground.

"Huuuh…. now that a work out. I think I can control 3 constructs easily and meticulously as long as its in my field of vision 2 if not. The satellites now seems to move instinctual now in protecting me."

Checking the area if there are any noticeable loot as the only thing that is unique enough is a seed that seems dropped by the spirit that can summon other things.

[Evandel's Seed]

—Seed containing the soul of Evandel the witch.

As I pick up the seed and see its description and finally know what that spirit was as a witch that produce ghost it seems but only to be confused as to what I can do with this seed.

"Should I plant this in a pot?"

Not knowing what to do with the seed I just put it in my pouch as I continue to scour the area hoping to find something. As I'm nearing the end of my search I find these A slime-like weapon with a blue glow and its desciption is.

[Aether]

[Mystic – Formless] [Evolving]

A corporeal but formless weapon. Adheres to its master or his weapon, reinforcing their strength.

—Master selection

—Physical body reinforcement

—Weapon reinforcement

—Evolving weapon

As I picked it and learned its description, The Aether immediately adheres to my body and also seems to adhere to my constructs making them look real or have substance but with a blue glow.

"Well Jackpot, seems my construct just got an upgrade now the only problem is me as I need to be better at using this Aether."

[Meanwhile…]

....[Kim Hajin] Ask for a Gun.

[Back To Yu Jin]

Stopping while I'm ahead I decided to stop the exploration as I go back to cube while also hunting some monsters on the way to put on the other pouch that is owned by David while also taking out the Ginseng and putting it on my own pouch. I didn't rush to go back as I wander here and there if by any chance I feel any life signature of ginseng in the area while looking at any significant change of my constructs while being enhanced by aether.

Going back to CUBE I send an email to David telling him he can now retrieve his pouch as I'm done hunting, unfortunately I sense no ginseng on the area I've walked on to.

As I go back I bought some small pots since they don't sell a single pot and some dirt and fertilizer, since it will be a waste only using a single pot I bought some seed packs that is available in there from flowers to fruit trees since I can't decide there and there what to plant so I just bought most of them they either can be useful as ingredients.

Now I've already prepared some pots with soil in it, I've put some herbs seed in there and just put them aside. As I am now looking at the Seed I got from the Dungeon.

"Should I really plant it here in a pot?, maybe I'll add some of my mana with my gift maybe? I'll do it in the other pots first if there is nothing happens or if only good thing happens I'll plant this one (Evandel)."

Postponing in planting the witch seed I put it in a cotton pouch with a written words on it [Evandel's Seed] then putting it in a drawer alongside the other seeds that I've bought. As I go to my bed train my constructs and find more about aether.

"Since I already have the ginseng in me I can just give these to those two tomorrow since all they can do tomorrow is either train/spar or prepare for the upcoming exams."

With what I got right now is good enough even cancel our dive on Saturday to Sunday to just try our luck on Saturday if we can't clear it we should just stop and go back at it again someday.

"It seems the aether help me with me skipping or lessening the burden of imagining things with my constructs as I feel that I can now control three or four more constructs easily maybe even in battle."

Should I reveal these to those two and ask for a spar? Maybe I'll limit to two as I combat them again in melee.

"We'll see what will happens tomorrow then, Good Night."

Feeling my mana is being low nearing empty even I just get comfortable in my bed then starts to sleep. Only a few days more with this experiment to prove my theory.

*Zzz…*
