Chapter 25 - Dungeon

If it's been 5 days since the fight with the Dragon, I decided to spend some time without going to the forest because the dragon's death could have attracted many monsters.

So I wouldn't enter the forest soon after killing the dragon.

'I have to think what to do with the core'

The monster core was still in the woods, I had no way to get the core now, as there was no place to store it and there was no adventurer guild nearby to sell the core.

I went to the forest in the afternoon just to get the core. I was thinking of burying him behind the house so I could sell him when I went to school in the capital.

'Let's bury here'

I used earth magic to drill a hole in the ground. I realized that spells don't just have level spells, I can create copyright spells, and I can use magic in another way, such as controlling the elements of the spell itself.

I drilled a hole in the ground and buried it the core.

'I'll take him to the capital as soon as I'm 12, so he'll be here for now'

I finished burying and went indoors.

After I went inside, I took the wooden sword and walked around the village.

I wanted to talk to mom so I could start hunting monsters with her, since I got tired of doing it in hiding, and I wanted to show my strength to my mom.

'I'm sure she won't allow it'

I was pretty sure she wouldn't allow it, but it didn't hurt to try.

_____________________________

After walking around the village a bit and talking to some people, I saw mom walking around the village too.

Apparently she keeps walking near the forest so if any monsters appear she could kill quickly.

I went to mom and called her to talk.

"Mom, can I hunt monsters with you in the village?" (Endl)

"You're crazy, of course not" (Emma)

Hand answered instantly.

"But I want to help protect the village. You know I can use magic" (Endl)

I tried to talk about spells, since my mother realized that my magic was strong, she could let me help her by attacking spells from afar. But it was not the case.

"You can't Endl, I already said, ok?" (Emma)

"But why?" (Endl)

I was wondering why since I can take care of these monsters easily.

"Because you can not." (Emma)

Mother answered me with a furious voice.

She didn't even want to tell me why I couldn't hunt monsters with her.

But that's okay, since I can hunt at night. I wasn't really into monster hunting alone, because I always had mates with me.

But this is the only way for me to level up.

________________________________________

When night fell, I decided to go to the forest again. I leave home as usual, I leave very slowly so as not to risk anybody waking up.

Since in the forest near the village there were only weak monsters, I wanted to find stronger monsters.

'I hope not to find another dragon'

I was not in the mood to fight another dragon again, since he is very strong.

I kept walking through the woods.

I started to go deeper into the forest to look for stronger monsters. Despite walking for a long time, I only found goblins and killed them quickly.

You have leveled up.

I spent so much time walking and killing goblins that I leveled up.

'That's nice'

At least I managed to level up, right?

After continuing to walk for a while, I found a cave, yes, a huge cave.

She had a huge entrance and right after the entrance, she had a ladder down.

'A dungeon?'

In my previous world, there were dungeons, they are 10 floors deep, and usually on the top floor there is a Boss Monster.

Boss monsters are very strong, but I don't think they would be stronger than the dragon, right?

Usually the dungeon has 10 floors, each floor you go down the difficulty increases, I think this dungeon should be strong.

I don't know if this dungeon has been explored before by an adventurer, I can't see anything to indicate it. If it has not been exploited by anyone, surely there must be something important inside it.

'It can be a very valuable item, or just a lot of money, but I want it'

So I decided to enter the dungeon.
