Danmachi: I'm Leveling Up In The Dungeon

I reached the 17th floor yesterday. Since there wasn't enough time, I didn't go any further.

With enough time, Aston could have gone further.

Today, of course, I have to go down the level I reached yesterday.

If Goliath appears, just brush it off.

but

Thinking about the Loki Familia First-Class Adventurers he met yesterday, Aston guessed there was no chance to find Goliath today.

Goliath was probably wiped out by Finn and the others.

It doesn't matter, Goliath's refresh cycle is relatively short, it respawns every two weeks.

At my own upgrade rate, half a month should be just enough time to increase my stats.

Speaking of Status upgrades, after yesterday's upgrade, Aston was convinced that the benefits of Status upgrades were something he could not give up.

Yesterday's Status upgrade brought a four-level improvement.

Only an upgrade from lv.1 to lv.2 will have such a sublimation, what changes will come with further upgrades.

There cannot be any changes anyway.

With Divine Speed, Aston needed an hour to reach the 17th Floor again.

This time, Aston didn't stop here, but went straight to the last room before the 17th Floor, which leads to the 18th Floor, the Sighing Wall, where Goliath originated.

If you come across a Goliath spawn, just kill it. If not, skip the 17th and 18th Floors and go straight to the 19th Floor.

Unknown to Aston, shortly after he entered the dungeon a figure entered the dungeon. As soon as she entered the dungeon, she desperately searched the Upper Floors for Aston, but she never found him.

This person is none other than Ryuu Lion.

"He said we need to find him and help him grow up."

"The hope for the Astraea Familia's resurrection lies in him."

"My hope of seeing you again is in him." Ryuu rapidly moved on the Upper Level, searching for Aston's presence different battlefields, muttering in a low voice as she moved quickly.

However, all of her efforts were in vain because by the time she entered the dungeon, Aston had already reached the Middle Level, and it was still the 17th floor.

She searched for Aston on the Upper Floor but didn't spot him.

Aston, who had already reached the Sighing Wall, was unaware of this.

He gazed at the pristine white room, waiting silently for a minute, but nothing stirred.

This made him sigh.

"Goliath was probably just a dessert for Finn and the others."

After shaking his head, Aston quit stalling and headed for the passage leading to the 18th Floor.

The 18th floor is one of the safer floors in the dungeon, much like Orario.

The entire floor is lit by pure white light emitted from the crystals on the ceiling. At the right temperature, the emitted light is almost like sunlight, making people feel warm all over.

This situation is very rare for dungeons.

However, Aston is not here to enjoy himself.

After entering the 18th Floor, Aston followed the Map's guidance and rushed to the passage leading to the 19th Floor, directly entering it.

The floors after the 18th Floor are completely different from the previous floors.

The 19th Floor is a huge room known as the Great Tree Labyrinth. There are towering trees everywhere, with root systems thicker than humans covering the entire space, and the vegetation is very lush.

The monsters born after the 18th Floor include Firebirds, Sniper Dragonflies, Giant Beetles, Bear Beasts, etc., as well as others, almost a stew of everything.

As soon as Aston entered this floor, he was greeted by the deadly wasp.

Flying monsters are difficult for others to defeat, but Aston is different.

It doesn't matter if you can fly or not, just fire a few Fireballs and everything will be wiped out.

"Ding!! Killed Ligerfang, gained 80 experience points!!!"

"Ding!! Killed Ligerfang, gained 80 experience points!!!"

"Ding!!..."

A series of notifications echoed in Aston's mind.

Aston didn't pay any attention at all and continued to unleash his magic to get rid of the monsters surrounding him.

Within a minute, Aston had cleared all the monsters around him and picked up the magic stones on the ground.

"Speaking of which, I can't remember if it's on the 19th or 20th floor. Let me check." After picking up the magic stone, Aston suddenly heard that there seemed to be Xenos on these floors, monsters that gave birth to wisdom. Being curious, Aston couldn't help but check the map.

The System Map could completely display all the rooms on each floor, even the unexplored areas were displayed on the System Map.

"Well, it's true. This place is an unexplored area, and it should be the Xenos' residence."

"Shall we take a look? After inspecting for a moment, Aston discovered a place suitable for a temporary residence, and the idea of checking it out immediately came to his mind.

However, the idea was discarded immediately.

"Let's not complicate things, focus on leveling up."

"I only have a few hours today, let's see if I can level up in that time."

Aston only planned to spend the morning in the dungeon; in the afternoon, he would return to the surface.

The breast enhancement potions were already prepared, and Aston was planning to visit the Loki Familia to see if he could succeed.

Closing the map, Aston wandered again, waiting for the dungeon's response.

Soon, a group of monsters, bear-like beasts, appeared in front of Aston.

Without hesitation, Aston unsheathed his knight's sword and charged.

"Ding!! Killed bear beast, gained 90 experience points!!!"

"Ding!! Killed bear beast, gained 90 experience points!!!"

"Ding!! Used Sharingan consecutively, gained 20 Sharingan experience points!!!"

"Ding!!"

Notifications echoed in Aston's mind again.

Time gradually passed as Aston hunted.

In the blink of an eye, three hours had passed.

A prompt suddenly sounded in Aston's mind, causing him to freeze in place.

"Ding!! Used Sharingan consecutively, gained 20 Sharingan experience points. Sharingan experience points are full. Sharingan successfully upgraded. Current level is lv.3."
