Chapter 5: Quest

Roel walked down the hallway. He had his skill 'Dash' and on top of that, it is level 2. It will be his trump card. When surrounded by an enemy, he will run faster than a cheetah.

Roel's eye fell on the slime that was alone like it got abandoned by its crew. But for Roel it was an opportunity, to kill more slimes.

Roel rushed at the slime, but before the slime reacted, a fist pierced its body. The sone which maintained its form and gave it its life got snatched by Roel.

Throwing the stone at the wall, he destroyed it.

Another slime was killed.

Roel smiled satisfied.

He walked down. He again met another slime, but this time there were 3.

"Three slimes, huh." Roel blinked his eye. He didn't rush at them, he didn't dare to underestimate them. Who knows, if they just gangbanged him.

As slimes saw Roel, they crawled at him. When they reached near, one by one, all three of the slime jumped, attacking Roel.

Roel dodged the attack easily. He skillfully caught one slime and took out its stone. Before another slime could attack him, he jumped back and threw the stone destroying it.

Roel didn't spend his time playing with the slime. He jumped at one slime getting behind it. Before it could turn, its back was pierced by Roel's hand. He stole its stone and destroyed it.

Then, Roel charged at another slime. He killed it easily. One slime is easy to deal with.

Roel finally killed 3 slimes in one fight.

It may look little, but for Roel, it was a huge achievement. A person like him who has never gotten into conflict or any fight and didn't even know how to defend himself killed the monster. Even though it is low leveled one, it is still a monster.

If it wasn't for his strength, stamina, and agility raised up, he would have had more problems. Maybe he still would kill these slimes, but he may also have gotten injured.

Roel got a little bit confident but he didn't dare to slack off either. He will guard himself properly.

In front of him, this time ten slimes appeared. Before Roel could see them, a slime hit Roel's face. Another slime took this opportunity to land on his stomach.

"Gah!"

Roel's mouth opened by the pain. The slime crawled at his chest trying to enter his mouth. But Roel instantly grabbed the slime and peeled its stone.

He stood pressing his stomach with one hand breathing haggardly. Roel again got another lesson, never turn without checking first.

Next time, he would check if there are any slimes on the side when he will turn. He glared at the nine slimes who looked like villains ganging up on the hero.

Roel kicked one slime with so much force that it hit the wall breaking its stone on impact. Another slime was killed!

Then, Roel fought with eight other slimes. Dodging the attack, he hit them. Then again dodge. However, unlike with three slimes, here two or sometimes even five slimes attack at the same time.

So, he got git quite many times.

In the end, he killed all the slimes. But he was greeted with pain. He walked around and fought with the other 5 slimes. He got more pain

But fortunately, he leveled up and also completed the quest.

Roel made sure to wait for the dagger before advancing.

The space was compressed and a hole was created. A small dragger dropped from the portal made Roel excited.

He picked the dragger.

[Dragger]

[Rank: Ordinary]

[Effect: +2 Strength, +1 Pentration]

Roel looked at the dragger in a daze. he was overwhelmed by it, He was a person who haven't even touched a knife for more than a year.

He always eats the cheapest thing. And now he had got dragger to kill slimes. He didn't know where his life was going.

But what can he do, he will go with the flow.

Playing the dragger to get accustomed to it, Roel walked ahead. Again, the horde of slime came into his view.

Even after getting healed by the total recovery, Roel didn't dare to go at the horde of slime. But this time, the distance between him and the horde of slime was less than 100m.

He used 'Dash' to escape and also to check its effect.

As he mumbled 'Dash' a feeling came to his leg. He felt full of energy, and an urge to run. Of course, as the skill description, it increased his speed by 50%.

But it takes 10 mana per minute. So he only has 2 minutes.

Without wasting a second, Roel bolted down the hallway. He easily lost the slime, but he was so fast that he pierced the air. The air that passed by his face hurt his face.

As he dashed into the quiet hallway, he couldn't control his speed. Resulting in an echo of loud bang noise.

Roel rubbed his face and wailed. He didn't cry, but he felt his body being in pain many times today.

Coming back to his sense, Roel walked toward the opposite side.

The hallway was like a maze, wherever he goes only a long hallway comes. He didn't find any room, and only the hallway bored him.

If it wasn't for the slimes, he would have thought this was a trapped dungeon, which he would definitely pee due to fear, if he was.

Facing death multiple times would break anyone's mentality. Roel wasn't an exception, he had been traumatized by that dungeon.

His only will kept him going, and not to forget the satisfaction after killing the slime, he wouldn't forget that.

Roel moved from one hallway to another, facing slime. In just 30 minutes, or may be shorter or longer, since Roel doesn't have any watch to see time, he has lost his sense of time. He killed more than 50 slimes.

He was going to finish his third quest in no time.

With his dagger, he killed the slime easily as killing an insect.

While Roel locomoted from the hallway to hallway, he met yet another slime. The slime jumped at him, but with Roel who was already used to the dragger swung it, and sliced the slime in half.

The stone was also sliced in half by the dragger that sharp it was.

Suddenly, another slime came into his vision. But this slime was different, except for blue skin, its skin was covered in yellow.

Its body looked golden and beautiful. It crawled toward Roel as it saw him. Its speed was faster than ordinary slime, and it reached Roel in less than a minute.

It jumped at Roel. Roel also swung his dragger.

Clang!

Roel was stunned. He expect the dragger to pierce its skin, but instead, it collided with Roel's dragger.

Clang! Clang!

The sound of metal colliding echoed as Roel and the slime fought. With each strike, Roel felt his stamina draining. And the slime didn't even have any scratches.

Roel guessed he couldn't kill the slime like that, he jumped back and used a dash to escape.

He didn't want to waste its energy with one slime. If other slimes came and attacked him in his weak state, he couldn't fend himself off, and either get heavily injured or just die.

Without any regret, Roel turned over five sides and only rest when he arrived in a lonely hallway.

He sat on the ground gasping for breath.

He looked here and there and saw the same old polished stone wall. Roel felt like he would lose his mind if he continued staying here.

It wasn't less than a prison. Who knows if he is captured, and all this system thing was a facade. But who would capture him anyway, he was just a poor man with no connection.

He was homeless to add to the pain.

Roel was depressed at this thought. He wanted to change, he wanted his destiny to be changed

So he wanted to be strong. To earn money, to earn fame, and to shock the whole world.

Roel sat on the ground for some minute, he stood after getting enough rest.

He slashed down many slimes. He didn't encounter the golden slime again, so he sighed. He doesn't want to meet that thing yet

Roel took a deep breath and didn't rest

He completed yet another quest. He killed 100 slimes!!!
