I feel less human the more I level up. I didn't eat much and what I did eat I don't have to pass it if you know what I mean. I haven't felt the urge to sleep since I was at the great sage's house. What is the system actually doing to my body? I know I shouldn't question what has been gifted to me but I feel that I will regret it if I don't.
I guess I should practice martial arts since I have not since I came here. Interestingly I have done multiple types, like taekwondo, karate, and jiu-jitsu, and all of them do not register as a skill. So are they not registered by the system or they are not even skills? I can say one thing for sure, the power of my moves has definitely increased probably close to 15 fold.
All while thinking this, my heart begins to race. Not from fear but from adrenaline. What for? There is nothing here that I can see… Before I could even finish the thought the sense trait made all the hairs on my neck all the way down my back stick straight up. It was not an ordinary monster that is for sure. Let's temporarily retreat because I do not know what kind of monster is there. I try to run but even with my increased speed, it was nothing in the face of this monster. I can't use inspect because I can't even see it. Though I could sense it. Its speed exceeded mine which never happened before. I wonder about strength though? I say that and it starts jumping from inside of me to the other and slashing me in the process. Slowly doing damage every time so it's attack damage is much lower than mine. The timing is the same every time so I just have to time it right. With my new sword "Sword arts: advanced" I got to nick the monster and it finally stopped. I think I did a lot of damage because its speeds were heavily decreased. And I could actually inspect it.

What are those unbalanced stats? Over 500 hundred health but less than 30 attack. I guess that skill is what made it so fast. That skill definitely would help me.
["Please don't kill me!"]
"Oh, so you can speak now?" Apparently language comprehension helps with monsters too. But what could it want?
["My death will cause all other masters to be aware of your presence here."]
"So this is a dungeon and each level has a master? But you were just now trying to kill me, were you not?" Alright some of my theories were right and this is an early level.
["That is correct…"]
"Interesting, so it's really a win-win for me." Other bosses know I am here meaning I can level up faster.
["Yes you see.. Wait what?! Please no…"]
That monster was definitely weird. {You have successfully slain level boss. You can now advance.} {You have leveled up.} {You have leveled up.} {You have leveled up.} {You have leveled up.} {You have leveled up.} Holy crap! Now I have more points to distribute and I am above level 15. "Cook" "Dissection" Light speed definitely will be useful. {You have learned a new skill: Light speed.} My stats are very balanced. I don't know what you're talking about. I did gain another 50 to add to my already 10 to distribute. That's 60 points to put into any category. Though I do like my overpowered strength I need to balance my speed.
Now that I am looking at the ogre he definitely has some nice armor. Although it's slashed in the pants. Wait, can I wear armor over my clothes to increase my stats? The chest piece is made of leather and iron and gives 10 to vitality?! That's helpful and I guess why the assassin had so much health. I do not want the tattered gear but this will hold my sword and won't hurt my movement too much. Wow, it does add on even with my current set of clothes! Free bonus stats don't mind if I do. Too bad the slimes were just watching; they didn't get any experience so they didn't level up. Oh well, time to get even stronger lets do the same thing and leave 10 points just in case and put 35 into agility, 10 into vitality and 5 into strength. I am really coming around. The balance is just about right again and I should be prepared to move further into the dungeon.
