Chapter 3

Jaejin went inside the purple colored portal and immediately was sent into another dungeon lair.

"Here I am, Class C portal." Claimed by jaejin as he landed safely on his foot inside the dungeon. He then took his time looking out for the torch near the entrance and lit it with flintstones that can be taken nearby. As soon as jaejin lit up the torch, a perfect scenery has revealed itself from the darkness of the lair in his naked eyes. A damped ground with lots of mana crystals on its side and a crystalized wall filled with pieces of clear crystals and precious stones and gems, were reflecting the light coming from the torch into several directions, lighting up the once earie and dark dungeon room of the first floor.

"Such a crystalized dungeon. So, I can just leave the torch here, after all, the first floor was already lighted up by those reflected light rays." Claimed by jaejin as he touched the heavy crystalized wall.

Not far from him were loud noises of monsters crying out because of the blinding light that has shone right before them.

"Chance, those monsters might be blinded by this light. Then." As fast as he could Jaejin grabbed his black knife tightly and run towards those heavy wailing cries.

And as he arrived on the location, not far from him were several shadow monsters crying out for help as they were blinded by the light and were petrified on their feet. As soon as jaejin saw it, he cannot help himself but gave out a dark grim face with a wide grin smile unto the petrified monsters.

"An easy murder" claimed by jaejin as he slowly moved his way towards the swarm of petrified shadow monsters holding his knife firmly.

He then reached out unto one of them, and he heavily struck his knife on the shadows fore head, killing it swiftly on spot.

The first victim slowly faded into the air, as if it was a part of the wind itself. What comes next was a loud ringing notification that made jaejin paused for a while.

"Ding you level up"

"I leveled up with just one monster kill?" amusedly claimed by jaejin as he stared his eyes on the announcement in front of him.

Then he moved unto the other side and struck his knife again on its forehead killing it with in a mere second. As it disintegrated into the air, another loud ringing notification rang out which immediately caught jaejins attention.

"Ding you level up"

Then he look around him where the swarm of blinded and petrified shadow monsters stands.

"This is an opportunity" said by him as he started to rub his neck as he looked around the petrified shadows that surrounds him.

Swift like a whirlwind and sharp like a blade, jaejin started his grand orchestral concerto slaying the petrified shadows with his knife. "Helpless" the only word that could perfectly described the shadows that jaejin killed with his knife. Unable to retract nor retaliate, they have gladly accepted their death towards jaejins knife. On the other hand, jaejin felt ecstatic towards the opportunity for what appears before him were several level up announcements.

And after slaying the shadow monsters on that floor, jaejin immediately rose his character level from level 10 to level 26, immediately gaining 26-character points. You might be wondering why he only went up to level 16 with such a swarm of shadow monsters? The only reason we could give you for that right now is that, it is his own maximum quota. For that, after reaching level 20, jaejin now needs to slay at least 15 shadow monsters to have a level up.

Currently jaejin went downstairs that will lead him down to the second floor of the dungeon then freezing cold wind, immediately welcomed him.

Hesitation then started to spread out on jaejins body. Desperately warning him of a bad omen.

"Something tells me that there is something down there that feels so earie." Claimed by jaejin.

However as he imagined himself being so weak, there was a strong presence on his back that kept on pushing him and inspiring him to become strong.

Thus, without dilly dally jaejin went down to the lower basement, the 2nd floor.

As soon as jaejin stepped down on the ground surface of the 2nd floor a notification immediately appeared on his front saying.

"Dungeon Quest: Raged swarm of shadows monsters have surrounded you. Stand your ground for 4 hours and protect your life at all cost from their attacks"

Ding! Quest have accepted.

The announcement made jaejin lost his mind for a split of a second. The one question appear on his shallow river mind, "How did he bloody accepted such a horrendous and bloodied quest, when he didn't say anything nor do anything at all?"

However, the appearance of the Timer Countdown above him even made him nuts.

(Hold my ground for 4 hours huh, in this lurky, dark, freezing second floor? And protect my life from them you say? What kind of quest is this? is this suicide?) said by jaejin unto himself.

A couple of minutes passed on,and jaejin was finally being rained with several attack out of nowhere from the shadow monsters that surrounds him.

-10 hp deduction

Those hp loss have made jaejin alarmed and anxious. "This is bad, I cant see them. I am on a terribly bad situation, damn it, I should have brought the torch with me." Said by jaejin while trying to sense any upcoming attack from the darkness of the room.

-10 hp deduction

Another set of attack have successfully hit jaejin. Making him uncomfortable even more.

"I should do something, no, I have to do something or else I would end up dead here." Claimed by jaejin as he closed his eyes increasing the rate of his sensory pulses accumulating his sensors by becoming one with the darkness.

In just a couple of minutes, jaejin felt the chill of the air as it touches him, and then comes next the dealt damage from the shadows attack. However, this time, jaejin rolled his way down avoiding any further damage from the shadows attack.

-10 hp deduction

He then started to move in several directions, avoiding their attacks through sensing the first touch of the chilly breeze of wind. However due to their numbers, jaejin cannot perfectly dodge all their attacks receiving one or two damage from them.

"Not good, I should find a way to attack back from them. But how? How can I retaliate back in this situation." claimed by jaejin. At that moment, the troubled jaejin, remembered something from his past. It was a lesson of a blade instructor to his students during their class session while jaejin was simply observing them on the sidelines.

"The wind," then he remembered every single bit of memories from his school days "feel the essence of the wind, for where the wind lies shadow also lies." Claimed by jaejin as he once again holds his knife tightly on both hands.

"Let this be the starting point of my retaliation, become one with the wind and you will see what lies with in the darkness. I am the leaf and my knife is the wind."

Jaejin, as swift as the wind, have a sword dance with his knife around the dark freezing chill of the second floor, landing several hits from random shadows marking them with eventually with red wound.

"It works?" claimed by the astonished jaejin. He then kept on performing Dance of the Deadly wind, marking around 50 shadows in the second floor, the exact number needed by him to slay for him to level up once and restore his fatigue and recover some of his lost hp.

Now that jaejin have finally marked the shadows with red, they are now visible on his eyes and then he start his grand orchestra and slay those marked shadow monsters one by one. And he did so, dodging the shadows attack by sensing the wind, giving them several slash beheading several shadows to their death, hitting their heads with the knife and piercing unto their heart using the knife. Bit by bit, the 50 shadow monsters gradually decreased their numbers until finally jaejin was able to slay them all.

Jaejin was then covered with glowing lights, recovering his fatigue and his hp back to normal. Jaejin finished his recovery, but as soon as he finished recovering, he has felt a strong pressure of wind coming again towards him which made him duck instantly. With a knife on his hands jae jin immediately performed another knife art: Dance of the deadly wind, instantly killing the shadow monster who have attacked him.

Like a wild beast on the forest, jaejin then stood up in front of several shadow monsters. He then prepared himself for another dash attack.

"This retaliation is not bad, I'm really sorry guys but I'm like a wild beast" claimed by jae jin as he danced with his blade around the second floors basement giving out his first strike towards his opponent.

Then as he stopped, several red marked wounded shadows started appearing behind him constantly dispersing in the air "Once my body remembers your heat and chill, it never forgets, and never will stop from hunting you till your deaths". Claimed by the currently standing jaejin.

He then felt another wind coming towards him, and on his current position he started to duck down to evade that attack. He stood up and started rotating mid air like a topspin hitting out several shadows in one go.

In that attack, jae jin is able to mark another 50 shadow monsters

Then as soon as he stops his rotation, jaejin turned around at his back and with a dashing position about to dashed towards his opponent jaejin perform his manually created knife skill.

"Taste this, I am the wind itself and my knife is the calamity" claimed by jaejin.

Then as swift as the speed of light jaejin appeared on several places giving out random several slashes moving swiftly like the wind marking shadow monsters on their neck. All 50 shadows have begun to disperse in the air, dead.

"Ding you level up"

"I still have a lot of time left, I wonder how far my level could go from this dungeon, it was four hours of slaughtering afterall." Claimed by jaejin as he look above him. Only to find out that it has only been an hour since he stepped on this dark and freezing second floor.

He then stretched out his arms and gave a little set of stretching. Then with a knife on his hands.

"I am glad that I usually watch those lessons that that sword master teach us, during my free time, even if im just a sit in student, somehow I have learned some blade skills." Claimed by jaejin as he once again move towards the new batch of shadow monsters.

"blade of the hurricane" claimed by jaejin as he rotated his way giving out a whirlwind like knife arts marking several shadow monsters with wounds as one. He was like yurnero.

Then jaejin turned to face the wounded shadow monsters head on and with his knife on his hands, Jaejin started to walk slowly towards them.

Shadow monsters were taunted by jaejins action and was infuriated making all of them dashed towards jaejin.

Unfortunately for them, jaejin have already grown accustomed with the dark and what welcomed them were their unfortunate death. Death from the pointy edge of jaejins knife. One by one, each of the shadow monsters started to fade out and die.

A bright light glows up on jaejins body. Making him feel refreshed recovering his hp and vitality.

However, to his surprise a new set of hp loss notification have appeared In front of jaejin.

-10 hp deduction

-40 hp deduction

"hundred forty deduction? What was that?" Alarmedly asked by jaejin.

Then another 140 loss in his hp in a mere minute appeared in his naked eyes.

"Something is definitely wrong here, did they have increased their numbers or perhaps they have summoned another strong shadow monster in this floor. Right now, the only choice that I have is to obtain another level up and used the glow of light as one of my weapons.

And jaejin did so. He struggled to slay another 50 shadow demons and was able to mark 50 on his first strike. However, he was inflicted again with another 140 hp deduction giving a remaining of 90 hp.

Panic have resurfaced on jaejins face receiving such a damage on critical point almost enough to kill him.

"No. I have lost my chance, not like this, it cannot be." Jaejin have felt such a strong presence of wind on his back and an upcoming wind force on his front. However, jaejin cannot stop right now, because if he would, he will meet his death. Just in the nick of time, jae jin rolled out backwards to the direction where he has sensed a strong presence of wind. He then saw several marked 50 wounded shadow monsters coming towards him.

"Those were the shadows that I have just wounded, then what are those monsters that gave me 140 damage?" Asked by jaejin.

However, seeing such a great chance jaejin have performed his Dance of Deadly Wind towards the wounded 50. Which have given him another level up and restoration.

And with a glowing light towards his body, jaejin immediately dashed out to that direction where he sensed a strong presence of wind.

Only to find such a catastrophic presence. It was a human form shadow wielding a shadow of a long sword on its hand.

Jaejin was only lucky enough because he is still covered with glowing lights and because of that the shadow is in fear and was blinded by it. At that time, while the monster is blinded, jaejin have this urge inside him telling him to quickly assassinate such monstrous shadow. Giving out such an advantage towards jaejin for free, jaejin immediately stuck his knife on the shadows head and then the throat and finally the heart.

Slowly, the shadow solider disintegrated in the air, making jae jin half relieved. At that time also, a loud chiming bell rang out in front of jae jin.

Jaejin: yes, finally ive got a skill.

However, as he was astounded by such consecutive rewards, jaejjin was once again struck by with a huge hp deduction.

--110 hp deduction

"!!!!!what?" as he was sent back flying backward by such a great force coming from in front of him.

Jaejin felt that the pressure given by this monster was the same, the same with the pressure that he felt on his first dungeon, the collosal one.

"Ive got careless, awts my back" as he slowly gets up from his current fall. He then looked around him somewhat a little bit terrified sensing everything around him carefully.

"Such a strong pressure, thanks heavens." claimed by jaejin as he gulped his own saliva. Then with no other choice he used his shadow passive skill.

After becoming a shadow, itself, jae jin then turn around to see what kind of shadow monster has such terrifying pressure on its body. The reason for it is because he doesn't want to be in the same situation anymore. He can still freshly remember his first encounter on dungeon raid which have almost taken his life. Because of that too, jaejin became more aware that there are things around him that is much more powerful than him. That's the main reason why right now he was constantly looking out to that monster to verify if it was the same collosal monster that he has faced before.

And as he looks around him, at one place. There is this one place that have move his curiosity. He moves closer to that place, nice and slow, slowly and slowly. Until finally he reached that place, and not far from him appears a huge shadow fiend with a height of 13 feet carrying with a massive shadow broadsword and a gigantic shadow shield.

Unable to fathom the monster in front of him, jaejin started to be terrified.

Then when he was about to run away, a strong impulse has flickered out on his back. Then his memory being called as trash by the crowd of people went back on his mind. Then this single impulse has turned into strong hate, then strong resolve to fight back and finally become a ray of Madness.

"I have faced an even more enormous monster than you, I have faced far more dangerous people than you, therefore I became like this, Mad. And you know how madness starts? Its like a gravity, it only needs one push for it to start. Yes, you have started it, so let's see if you're going to be the one that stop this madness." Said by jaejin towards the shadow monster.

Jae jin then activated his shadow clone.

"Shadow skill activate:Shadow clone" claimed by jaejin and two clones appear on both of his sides. Jaejin then commanded the two of them and with his strategy and together they went all out facing the huge shadow fiend in their front.

However, this time, unknown to jaejin, the color purple portal where he is currently in once again changed into indigo.

His second, godly portal encounter on Rank C category.
