Simon utilized all his strength and flapped his wings, his speed was many times faster as compared to when he was running on foot. Even after leaving the dragon's territory, he did not slow down his pace and directly flew towards his dungeon. Today's event had reminded him again that without strength he was nothing more than ant for the other. If he wanted to survive he had to increase his strength so that no one can look down on him.
"I shall remember this day. Earth Splitting Lower Dragon we will meet again in the future."
He clenched his hands as he made the declaration an intense fire burning in his heart.
After this day Simon increased his DP grinding pace even further. He and the dungeon started growing at a fast pace, there was also the aid of the Pride fragment which allowed him to gain experience faster than any other. And like that, another ten days had passed.
In these ten days, Simon made significant progress. First of all his level rose to 157 and his stats showed his growth. He had also gained few new skills [Super Strength] which increases his Strength stat by a little for a short amount of time. [Body Enhancement]- the skill increases his physical combat abilities even further.
He was confident that if he met the pack of Direwolves now, even without utilizing his high magic stats he could massacre them.
And lastly due to constant tangling and fighting with the Stormwolves in the past few days, he had made significant progress in his Wind Magic Mastery which has now evolved into its intermediate form Gale Magic Mastery.

If Wind Magic Mastery could bring forth large gusts of wind then the Gale Magic Mastery could summon tornadoes that could devastate everything. When one advances from novice tier magic to intermediate tier there is a significant growth in the quantity and quality of the magic.
"I tried everything, but it seems quite hard to combine two intermediate forms of magic."
Simon also tried combining the Flame and Gale magic but failed every time. Most often it would explode even before taking shape and other times would just disappear in smoke. From his constant failure, he did learn something valuable and that was different branches of magic needs different ratios of manas to combine. And that applies to the tier of the magic too. previously when he combined Fire-Wind magic he did it subconsciously in an 8:2 ratio. But when combining the higher tier Flame-Gale magic the ratios become completely different and that was why he was constantly failing.
This discovery lit a fire inside him and he knew that with persistence, soon he would be able to combine them.
In these past ten days, he also spared no effort in growing his dungeon. It now had nine floors and the sixth floor that he used as his personal space before was remodeled into three kilometers wide grassy plains. Hordes of Blue-spotted Bucklions inhabited this floor. They were a peaceful bunch of beings and as long as nobody attacked them they wouldn't become hostile.
Simon did not have to use Elixir of Enticement on them and since the dungeon still identified them as intruders he just left them be.
