Chapter 4: Dungeon 4
The 11th layers populated with hundreds of spores. Every time and then a group of spores will wobble their mushroom-like body and releases a powder in the air time to the air.
"Hell! Is that that a paralyzing powder?" he took out his shrink lace and armed his self with the Gods' Hoe. " It's just a paralyzing powder, It won't last that long. let's go, little hoe."
shoo!
He charged straight forward aiming for a small group of spores. But before he was able to deliver an attack, the spores already discovered him! The spores release a low squeak and rush towards him. he did not dare to charge to a group of crazy spores and dash back to the entrance! The group of spores hops like a bunny from his behind and seems like won't let him go. He shoots straight towards the 10th layer to catch his breath. The spores do not dare to go after him into a different territory they went back to the 11th layer and stop the chase "... That's crazy. There's a lot of this Spores! Those spores, are they using the mighty dragon spores!? I can't charge aimlessly! I need to plan!"
After a while, he smiles like a maniac and looks for an empty area to dig a couple of 2 feet wide stones. He stores the stones inside of his shrink bag and went down to the 11th layer unhurried.
He took out his shrink lace and remove the gods' hoe from it. He took out a few shrunken stones and positioned it in center of the lace like a slingshot.
*Squash!
"Haha! The hunts begin!" He swings the lace and releases the stone after it gains enough speed. After the stone is released, they return to their original size and the speed of the stone multiplied which launch a stronger impact and sends the spores' into a pulp.
Every time he killed, the corpses will not rot and stay on the ground. Instead, half of the corpse will turn into a blue colored smoke and gathered on the place where the spores die, the smoke solidifies into crystal-like grains. Each grain has the same amount of solidifying smoke. This only means that the amount of grains that will be produced is not clear.
The other half of the corpse was absorbed by his body. He though that this is only natural and did not give too much attention into it.
"Haha now you guys are nothing to me! Well, let's wipe this ugly spores to their extinction!" He was hunting hundreds of spores for an hour already.
The monsters in the 11th layer were wiped out a lot of times and it's respawned speed can't keep up on the way he hunts. He decided to speed up his pace and wiped a few more layers. When he reached the 16th layer of the dungeon he suddenly stops. He dashes at the corner of the room and slips behind a big rock formation.
Just after a few more seconds, a group of thugs like people walks out of the entrance. They have all types of weapons! Broadsword, doubles edges ax, arrows, and dagger! They have every weapon as if the group are always ready in any kind of situations. "Where is he? He can't be dead right? Go find him! We wait for him to get fat this long! We can't let him go!" He said, his smile like a maniac then licks his dagger. "He has a shrink bag and a shrink lace, I'm also pretty sure that this brat has a lot of gain on him! After wiping 5 layers on his own. Just think about how much we can earn just by killing him?!"
"Hmm, boss, the monster from this floor was not spores but corroding poison slime! They're dangerous if we disturb them that we will be sacrificing a few lives just to escape. Plus that guy might be busy looking for a good location to hunt, his not going too far from this area."
tack!
Just after he spoke, a shiny piece of mana grain drop on their front, this attracted not only their attention but also the same to the group Corroding Poison Slime.
Sweee!!
The slimes released ear-piercing noise, the screech destroys their sense of balance and make their knees bent on its own. A couple of slimes spat a dark green colored liquid to the group.
"F-fvck! We need to escape! My feet can't move!"
"Arrggkkk!" "B-Boss help kuhaak!"
The level of their group can hunt group od spores, but the group of corroding poison slime? The corrosion effect melted the skins while their flesh was releasing a black fluid, and a rotten smell will spread in the entire layer attracting even more slimes!
"I'm sorry, even though you're human.. bleurgh!" He almost but covered his mouth, (So unlucky! Why? Why do they have to drag me into this situation!?)
Currently, the group of slimes is feasting in the group's corpse. The number was unimaginable, and they even made a small mountain of slimes in front of the entrance!
(What to do? They blocked the entrance, how can I escape in this place? Portal? No Maybe I.. wait, they are slimes, slime's intelligence is low, well I can't just sit in this kind of place and wait for them to end their feast! They are feasting in human's flesh after all!)
He put his lace in the rock he is hiding to make it lighter and easier to lift. He hugged the rock and dash towards the corner where he can see the movement of the slimes. He leans his back towards the wall, and placed the stone on his front to use it his hideout, he removed the lace to turn it back to its original appearance.
"There's no turning back!"
He loaded a shrank stones on his lace and used it as a slingshot's ammo. He swing his lace in full force and sends the stone towards the crowds of slime. After he throws an attack he quickly bent his body to hide from the slimes.
*Squish!
The popping sound resounded in the entire layer! It's like a water balloon that's poked with a pin. He throws a quick look at what happened in the slimes, he confirmed that his a large part of them died, but he still remained nervous. There is a lot of them evaporating, but there's still a lot of them! He put another round of stone and swing it with his fulls forces!
*Patchie!
*Plushh!
*Pheew!
After a few rounds, the stone he collected was used up. But there are still a few of them in the entrance! He took out his Hoe and think of a strategy on how to escape.
"They only reacted to a living, but I don't have anything on me! I only have 1 ppt, and my store is only selling goods for farmers!"
He doesn't have a choice but to dig the wall of the floor. He swings the hoe, with all of his might and slowly hit the wall.
The wall is like a metal and the collision between his hoe, and the wall makes a deafening noise.
*Dang!
"Sh*t" He looks at his back and finds out, that the huge crowd of slimes was charging at him.
He swings his hoe to send a rock towards them, but they are almost unscathed, he runs to a nearby rock and hides behind it for an ambush.
*Shuck!
The slime did not even react before it dies. It just stares at him to wait for his end!
The slimes are dangerous on long range and direct confrontations. But can't move if they are ambushed. Right! That's it!
He throws a piece of rock and distracted the group! He dashes around the rock to sneak an attack. He approached the end line of the slimes and started to swing his hoe like a golf club!
*Splash!
*Slush!
"Dam*ed slimes! This will be the end!" Puchi*
He slew every slime and acquired hundreds of more mana grains on his possession. With all his strength he rushed towards the dungeon's exit!
"S-status!"
Ding!

He breathes deep and was scared "Hell! I need some rest! My fatigue is so high! I feel like I'm gonna die!"
"Haha, right? How many floors have you manage to clear?" The guard approached him and tap his shoulder. "Now you know that being an adventurer means that one of your limbs is already set in the grave just to acquires enough money to have a good future!"
"You're right! If I did not managed to find a way to slay those corroding poison slime, I'll be a dead bones already!"
"Haha, of course. The fifth flo-.. You what!? You cleared the 16th floor!? Those are high ranking slimes! Only rank d could fight them!"

"Hey, I know him l, he makes a group of thugs unconscious with one swing!"
"Hmm? That's him! The one who become rank C just after he become an adventurer. It means, he really clear 16th levels!"

Inside Kernel Inn
A sissy man walk towards Lucas and pointed sword on him. "You ugly ancient cultivator like you here!"
"Yeah, we just got our rank D. You are spoiling the mood!"
"Dear customers, please don't be rude to our guest. He is recommended by Mr. Neil and-" Before she has ended her words the man pointed his sword towards her!
His eyes were red! Indicates that this person is already drunk! "What'd you say? I mean you don't know this handsome me!?"
"N-no sir but please-"
"You are just a receptionist! Yet you dare to talk back!?" He swings his sword to cut her neck but a hoe interrupted his sword!
slap!
The next moment, a sound of slap can be heard in the entire Inn. The Imm become silent, then a deafening roar enters their ears.
"Arrrrrggg!!". He wailed as if his tiny winny were cut into two! He was holding his *ss and sat on the ground! " Y-you! I'm a novel! You dare to hurt me!? Y-you. will be- Arggkk!"
Lucas swing his slapper and slap him again on his legs! "little sissy, how about I cripples you before I rest? I just got back from my diving, and I was in a bad mood because of a group of thugs actor like you!"
He turned around and slap the man's shoulder and end his wailing. Lucas looks towards his companion and signs them to take him away.
"Miss, it's okay now. I will be not let a sissy like him humiliates a lady on my presence! If he ever makes a trouble, just let me know. I'll take care of him!"
Blush!*
"T-thank you so much, sir! I-i am Violet!" She bows her head to hide her embarrassment. "W-well let's proceed with the conversion! 1 night for four mana grains."
"Violet hah? Haha, so cute! Then, have a good day! Miss Violet" He drops 4 grains of mana in the table and turn around to live.
(H-he complimenting me! W-wait! E-erase go away already.)
Inside the room, Lucas took out a coconut from his bag and stares at it with a weird expression!
"Hmm? coconut? Can you turn into a plantros? or Treetans? I brought you as my drink but it turns out you'll be my first companion!"
He put the coconut on his bag and took off his shirt. (Haist, what an eventful day! Tomorrow I need to make a research on what kind of planteros exist in this world!)
