"Wait!"
'God dammit just let me leave!'
The knights moved aside to reveal a black haired and purple eyed kid. He looked no older than 15 and would seem quite handsome to most girls. Not Mizuki though.
"What now?"
"May I catch your name?"
"No. Good day."
"Wait a second!"
Mizuki was getting more annoyed by the second. She considered decapitating him.
"I wish to make you my wife!"
"..."
This caught everyone present off guard. Especially the butler.
"Young master I can not approve of this. Marriage between humans and demi humans is strictly prohibited in the Earlhighm kingdom."
"Shut up Aenon. I am the first prince. If it is not allowed I will just make a request from father."
"But young master she is just a commoner!"
"Aenon I thought you were supposed to be one of the most knowledgeable people in the kingdom of Earlhighm. How do you not know that only royal cat beastkin have more than one tail? If I remember correctly, this was taught to me at the age of 4."
The butler named Aenon quieted down after the prince started to scold him for not knowing the most basic of information. It was common knowledge that he just seemed to forget.
"Forgive me young master. It seems my age has deteriorated my memory by a bit." said Aenon with a sigh.
"It is fine. Anyway young lady, I hope to get an awn-...?"
"Your Majesty the girl left a while ago."
One of the knights said after the prince stopped his sentance half way.
"Then why didn't you stop her? Which way did she go?!"
"She entered the forest while your majesty and sir Aenon were speaking. We did not dare to interrupt."
"Tch. Well go find her and ask her to hear me out then!" said the prince with a click of his tongue.
'She is the most beautiful girl I have ever laid my eyes upon. The women of Earlhigh could not even compare, not even the noble daughters. And considering that she is royalty the marriage might just form a tie between the Earlhighm and Aeston kingdoms.'
"Right away your majesty!"
The guards went off towards the direction where Mizuki had left.
Meanwhile...
"Sheesh. Didn't expect a marriage proposal right off the bat."
Mizuki was currently walking deeper into the forest.
"Well he wasn't my type anyway so I didn't lose out on much. I can just make my own kingdom when I am strong enough."
She said as she was looking around, seeming to be searching for something.
"I'll hold off the town visit for now. Staying here is the best option right now as the brat might try to find me if I were to ever enter any of the towns within his fathers kingdom."
While thinking about what to do for now Mizuki stumbled upon a weird looking cave.
"Perfect. This could function as a make shift home for now."
Mizuki entered the cave and got a notification.
[Dungeon -Tomb of the Technomancer- discovered]
[As the first being to enter this dungeon you are granted the following benefits while inside this dungeon]
[+50% EXP gain
+20% rare item drop chance
+10% to HP recovery while fighting the monsters inside this dungeon
The monsters are scaled down to your level until you out level this dungeon (current Lv21)]
"Well this is lucky isn't it? But how am I the first to find this? It's a seven minute walk into the forest from the road." she wondered.
"Well it's not my style to refuse gifts, especially a gift this good. But I do wonder what the maximum level of the dungeon is."
Mizuki entered deeper into the dungeon and was attacked immediately by a green glowing shadow.
"Well sh*t."
...
"Why can you not find her?"
"I wish for your forgiveness your highness. My men are doing everything within their power to find the girl."
"Well make them use 120% of their power then. Do not make me wait more than 10 minutes."
"Yes your highness."
The knight captain then left to gather the knights to see if any information about the girl has been found.
"Aenon tell me her level and name."
"From what I could see she is only level 21. Her name was hidden, I do not know what it is."
"So if her name was hidden it could very well be a possibility that her level is fake as well correct?"
"Yes young master it might be that as well."
As the prince and Aenon were talking about all their current knowledge on the matter a knight came running back.
"Sir! I think I might have found something!"
"What is it private? Did you find her?"
"No sir but I found a dungeon."
"And this helps our current objective how?"
"It is a dungeon I have never heard of before. Along with that, when I entered I did not get the first enter notification from the system but the smell of blood was strong right at the enterance."
"What was the Lv of the dungeon?" asked Aenon.
"From what I saw it was level 50."
"And the name?"
"It was named -Tomb of the Technomancer-."
"Level 50 along with having a name I have never heard of. A newly discovered dungeon." muttered the knight captain.
"Young master I believe that the girl is dead. There is no chance that she is still alive even if she was level 40."
"It may be so. If she were over level 50 she could have just squashed us all and left." said the prince with a sigh.
"But I would still like to visit her final resting place and say my peace."
"I understand young master. Roland, gather the knights. We will make a quick visit to the dungeon." said Aenon to the knights captain.
Roland nodded and left towards the group of knights. While he was leaving Aenon took a glance at the prince.
'It seems he really did like the girl, love at first sight? But the young master has to go through tough times if he wants to be the future king. I have to say, the girl did seem quite 'energetic' it might have just been fun to have her around. I do so hope that you can get over this fast young master Damian.'
...
"Ahhh~ I almost died again~."
Mizuki let out a long sigh as she leaned against the metallic like wall with black blood covering her face.
Within this time Mizuki has gained two levels and reached the third floor. When she gained a level, so did the monsters which made the dungeon a lot harder. Especially if she leveled up during a fight. The monsters would just suddenly gain a boost in overall strength which made dodgeing a lot harder.
"Well at least I get some fighting experiance."
"The 'monsters' here sure are weird though." said Mizuki while taking a glance at the dissapearing body of a 'goblin'.
The 'goblin' had dark metal skin with blue circuit patterns around his body.
"Well I say monsters but they are more like robots rather than monsters. This makes it easier and harder at the same time. As they have a lot less flexibility than me but their metal skin makes it really hard to beat them"
As the body of the 'goblin' dissapeared a dagger fell in it's place.
"Well at least the loot is good." said Mizuki with a smile on her face.

'The passive stat boost I receive per Lv up really is big. And thanks to [Basic Dagger Mastery] my psychokinetically controlled daggers receive a small but welcome boost in damage.'
'Although it seems that the robot monsters here are weak to blunt rather than slash and pierce it is still better than the mostly rusted daggers I got from the bandits.' thought Mizuki.
"Well. Next floor it is." said Mizuki with a smile while walking down the stairs, the circuit patterns slowly turning red in color.
