The sickle wielding guardian spoke with a steady voice, “Impressive.” I raised an eyebrow, “I thought these guys didn’t have a conscious?” Kessiah shrugged, “This isn’t a normal guardian. Uh…Let me think.” She frowned, pointing a finger towards the sky in mocking imitation, “Indeed Kessiah. Using my incredulous intellect, I infused the corpses of two dead disciples into the corpses of warriors. I know, I know, hold your applause at me sheer and unmatched intellect.”…-

After making sure Althea had her dungeon cores maxed out as well, the three of us left towards the next dungeon. Apparently, it was a wierd, open kind of dungeon that existed within the local sports stadium. The three of us left the house before meeting up with two guards that Torix lended us. After the close call last time, he ensured us that he wasn’t going to hold back any longer. Being summons of Torix’s, the guards were armored, enormous, and armed to the teeth. One of them wore a helmet with…

Kessiah murmured, “No, that’s impossible. Why would you want him to?” A giant set of pincers raised out of the ground and clamped onto my waist. A giant beetle with armored plates all over it rose out of the ground and dashed towards the house. Like chunking a sack of flour, the beetle tossed me through the window. I flew before smashing into the window. Bits of drywall snapped along with the shattered glass panes. I tackled into the floor, tearing through a few planks of wood. As I glanced up,…

I shrugged, “Well, we’ll have to see later down the line. What’s the first step to becoming some crazy master of gravity?” Torix grabbed his chin, a serious look replacing them mania from earlier, “Hmmm. Learning to master your mana would be the first step. After that, creating runes for it, considering how effective they are for stabilizing it.” He nodded, “All that is required after the basics is spatial chaining, dimensional locking, then mass deviation.” I bit my lip, pulling…

My helm split, the jagged teeth of ruptured metal sharper than before. With a bite, I tore into the tentacle surrounding me. The monster’s grip loosened, letting me shove my right hand into its eye. My whole hand pierced the clear lining that protected its eye. A forest of armor needles erupted from my arm, pinning me to the monster. The massive eyelids of the creature came crashing down from above and below. They slammed against me, knocking me sideways. Before it could blink again, I punctured my…

I mean that literally. Once I passed a bit deeper into the cave, the walls bent and turned wet. I glanced around, wondering where the snails met. A few more turns down the passage, I found my answer. This was an underwater cavern, mist floating over the water like white cotton. I neared the water, walking along a shore made of stone. A set of crawling legs clacked as a crab walked out of the water. One of its overgrown pincers dragged behind it, like it was dragging a club. It stood five feet (1.5…

I exited the school before running towards the entrance of a sewer. Passing by the multicolored fauna, the ascendant mana flowed through my runes as I kept two stones afloat beside me. With every twisting curve of the sewer, I came closer towards the next dungeon. A few minutes later, I reached it. I crawled up the metal stairs and pushed off the manhole cover with a reserved slowness. I didn’t want to attract any unwanted attention, despite how bloodthirsty I sounded at times. I crawled out of the…

Kessiah stood up and shouted with her arms raised, “That was fucking awesome. Man, you guys had to pull out all the stops to win that one.” She walked over and picked up Althea who was passed out on the ground. Kessiah glanced towards me. She shrugged her shoulders, “I guess that’s all for today. You can do whatever for the rest of the day. I’ll be carrying Althea back to the camp.” I leaned up, my health regenerating at a rapid pace. In front of me was a dungeon core. It was a…

Before charging him, I opened my menu screen and poured all my points into constitution. My armor tightened around me before I balled myself up. I grit my teeth and tensed my entire body, turning myself into a ball of iron. A few snaps of my armor occurred before I regenerated my armor back to normal. I stood tall before cracking my neck. The SoulSwallower grinned, “So you can transform then?” I rolled my eyes before shouting, “Kessiah, Althea, there’s a strong dude in here. I’m going…

The voice in my head rang, “He will obliterate you, Daniel. I will save you. Please, let me.” “Find someone who needs saving.” My heart racing in my chest, my thoughts raced even faster. At that moment, a realization snapped in my head like a whip across someone’s cheek. My armor was a part of my soul. That meant it was a part of my will and ambition. In other words, this voice in my head, it wasn’t some darkness trying to creep in. It was the darkness in me trying to creep out. It was…
