5) The One Who Punishes Evil

As he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on the same dungeon where he fainted, but now there is a huge door infront of him and he was holding a long rod seemingly made of a type of metal.

「Broken Metal Staff

Requirement :- 40 Str

Effects :-

+5 Str」

The staff isn't really great but he thought about the benefits it has.

'Hmm I should make use of my Authorities properly shouldn't I?'

While thinking so, he recollected him gaining 'Authority over mana' and smirked.

'It should be good enough if I do this right?'

Gi Wan closed his eyes and sat in a relaxed manner while leaning against the wall.

He focused on his breathing, not just breathing through nose, but with his whole body. The tiny pores on his body which he used to subconsciously to absorb air around him are now being used to let him feel the mana in the air around him. After a while, he started to sweat profusely. It felt as if he was working out real hard after a while, however he didn't move an inch of his body. Apparently his senses were blocked off before the occurrence of these strange events, which he couldn't call strange anymore as he knew how they were caused. However after passing the test, his blocked-off sense opened up.

「You have acquired the skill 'Mana Sense'」

「Mana Sense

「Skill 'Mana Sense' had been absorbed by 'Authority over mana'」

Gi Wan made a satisfied grin. However he didn't get up just yet and still continued to sweat alot. He tried to absorb the mana around him into his own body and then to his heart. And then the result of his hard work was here.

「You have obtained the skill 'Mana Absorption'

「Skill 'Mana Absorption' has been absorbed by 'Authority over mana'」

「Congratulations! You have created your first circle!」

「Due to a system error your proof quest will be delayed」

"Haah!"

Gi Wan slowly opened his eyes and held his staff. He forced the mana in his heart to flow into his hand and then into the staff he was holding. It formed a blue light covering the staff, he then sent in more of his mana and even ordered the mana around him to go into his staff using his authority which also helped him in absorbing the mana so easily. It formed a blue sword like structure over his staff.

「Skill 'Mana Manipulation' has been absorbed by 'Authority over mana'」

"Phew!"

He finally released the mana and stood up while patting off dust from his butt. He then stretched his body for a bit and looked at the huge door infront of him.

"Guess I'll have to kill people again."

He slowly opened the door. He could see a similar dungeon beyond the door too. However, there were humans in sight!

He slowly walked past the door. There were two girls in their twenties and a guy in his late thirties there. The two girls came rushing towards him but the guy formed a displeased expression only to slowly follow the girls towards him.

Gi Wan quietly made a sword over his staff and sliced off the two girls' heads off their bodies and then quickly reached the old man.

"W-Why?!"

SLICE!

"Sorry old man."

「You have killed beings of the same race as yours!

You have acquired 1 demonic point!」

He didn't show any hesitation in killing any of those humans. He has done that once already afterall. He felt that the goblin at his house and the orc he killed were no different from these humans. He only looked at the benefits he'd gain from killing them.

「You have acquired 80 'Uncooked goblin meat'」

「You have aquired the title 'The One Who Killed His Own Race'」

「You have acquired the skill 'Bloodlust'」

「Skill 'Bloodlust (lv 1)' leveled up due to the effect of the skill 'Persistent Bastard'.

Bloodlust (lv 1) --> Bloodlust (lv 5)」

At that moment, Gi Wan heard a small sound as if someone jumped and got his guard back up.

'There was another one? But there shouldn't be more than 4 people per dungeon tho?'

He then saw a shadow swiftly moving towards him. He used the mana in the surrounding air to envelope his staff and got into battle posture.

"Human, how dare you kill your own race like that? I shall punish your sins!"

He could see a werewolf rushing towards him.

'What the hell?'

The werewolf was holding two swords, one in each of it's hand and wore a pair of cool looking martial clothes with black colour and sky blue belt.

"And why the hell is that a problem to a werewolf?"

CLANG!

The werewolf's two swords which were swung at Gi Wan at a time clashed with his mana imbued staff and made a sound akin to two metal bodies colliding. However, the werewolf seemed to be a lot stronger than him and quickly overpowered him.

SLICE!
