Chapter 56: Examining the Floor and Fighting Fire Type Monsters

Walking through the floors Jayven saw many fire-type monsters. And as he further examined them from afar, he ranged their strength from C to B-ranked monsters.

"This floor is really dangerous they had more high-ranking monsters compared to the other floors. And from the looks of it, this has got to be an A-rank dungeon based on the ratio of B-rank monsters."

Jayven said as he examined the place from a safe distance. But watching them from a safe place won't do he needs to find out more about this place and what he is familiar with it. 

Utilizing his footwork and sense Jauyven swiftly walked around the area and searched for the possible lower floor.

After having a few rounds around the place Jayven had finally confirmed what the place was and further solidified his thoughts on what dungeon it was.

'The monsters in this place have fire attributes, is the boss here a fire-type monster? No, the other floors are different. Or maybe this is the real start of this dungeon, and because it was newly formed it can't fully establish its expansion and distribution of power.'

Having thought of what the place is the next plan of his will have to finally be in motion as he now knows what to do next. 

"Since I know what this place is I just need to avoid getting hit by them I could also possibly find their weakness while I am at it. And what better way to do it than fighting one head-on?"

Shrugging off the heat Jayven moved fast as he tried to navigate the place. Along the way, he would fight monsters from what he could handle to gradually stronger ones that he could find.

Some are fast small and sometimes big enough to chew him. And currently, he is fighting one of them. A giant bear with a burning red fur.

"Agni-Bear. Now this is going to be hard."

As Jayven had said this is an Agni-bear it is a monster with a B+ rank rating. A bear that emits hot fumes at its surroundings its strongest attack is called a combustion fist an attack that generates an explosive hot punch.

There is also an occurrence where it would emit a wide range of fumes to combust but it is more of a smoke bomb since it doesn't do much damage. But one needs to watch out cause when it does the next attack from it may cause someone's life.

"I need to make distance from it and once it uses those fumes then maybe I could take advantage of it. Better yet use it to my advantage."

As Jayven was still thinking about how to defeat the Agni-bear it suddenly lost its patience. With a roar, the bear attacked Jayven with a swing of its claws. 

Not wanting to get here Jayven jumped back and once the distance was created the bear dashed forward with a leap.

Sliding to the side Jayven evaded the tackle swiftly and without missing the beat Jayven took out a knife from his storage bag and threw it at the bear. 

And the attack successfully landed, but to his disappointment, it just bounced off of its skin.

Annoyed by the sudden attack the bear's rage was further increased as it looked back at Jayven and dashed him again.

"That doesn't work huh, I guess I need to try this next then."

Waiting for the bear arriving to his direction. Jayven made a low stance and raised his arm at eye length.

Then as the bear got closer Jayven moved his body in a fast and fluid motion avoiding the bear's move and vision. 

Unable to see Jayven due to his fast movement and evasive response. The bear then became frantic as it attacked in all directions.

Not wanting to miss this opportunity, Jayven bet his all with his Steel Bronze Body to defend against the heat as he used Mountain Tiger claw to slash through the bear's skin.

And upon contact the bear screamed from pain and it became even more mad. It trashed all around but did not hit Jayven.

Then with no choice, the Agni-bear uses its fumes to emit a small blast at its surroundings. Seeing this happen Jayven moves away to avoid the radius of the blast.

Having kept a distance against the bear Jayven saw an opportunity and struck again at the right moment.

The Agni bear also did the same using its combustion fist as it noticed Jayven going to attack in his direction.

But Jayven was way ahead of it. And the reason for it is the senses that Jayven has.

Although it seems like he is covered by the smoke the subtle and loudest attack he has is more lethal than one would expect.

So, with its sound as his judgment, Jayven was able to evade the attack leaving the Agni-Bear speechless.

Jayven's attack connected stunning the bear, Seeing his attack made contact huge blow Jayven increased his speed as he continuously attacked it.

After a few more seconds, the wounds got deeper and more numerous. It didn't last long till the bear lost strength and died.

"Phew that was one hard monster to kill. Luckily it was slow in movement and the attacks were predictable, but any more than that then it would become a battle of attrition."

After the battle, Jayven started to Dismantle the Agni-bear's corpse. Done collecting his loot he then continued to move forward and continued to look around.

Time passes and Jayven gets more familiar with fighting the monsters on the current floor. And as he started to get used to fighting the monster, along the way he started to train his body by using his restrained skill to lower his stats.

The start was rough but everything went well as he knows the weaknesses and strengths of the monsters.

So, he was able to keep on defeating monsters, and because of that, he improved a lot from the battle.

This continued until he saw a huge gate from afar. 

"Wait what is that? It can't be I am here already?"

Confused by what he saw Jayven got even closer and upon doing so he saw clearly what it was.

"This is the boss room, right?" Seeing it off close Jayven could only see it as such. 

And upon reaching the front of the huge gate Jayven suddenly remembered what he was told before during class.

The content from the lesson tells the formation of the dungeon transformation. It is said that the creation for it is so slow that there is only one boss room and conquering it will disperse the mana.

There is also a duration of its creation. A rank dungeon needs a month to fully form. B-C rank dungeon needs a week, and D-F needs about a day or five to form. Meaning if it just transformed then there is only one dungeon. 

And this one is only formed for half a day so this one only has one dungeon boss room. If the lessons from his class were real that is.

"Well then let's try and see what I can do with this. Without much choice, Jayven started to mentally prepare himself to face the boss inside."

Javen then started walking towards the giant door. But his senses kicked in like a certain spider dude, and he was able to dodge an unexpected incoming attack.

Jumping back to dodge the attack. Having successfully evaded the attack Jayven started to look for the attacker

"What is that? Not knowing the monster speeding to him. Jayven tried to make a clear view of the monster."

But as though it didn't want to be seen it sped up and attacked Jayven in a fast motion again, and with a different pattern each time making Jayven confused.

So, using his sense honed in the maze dungeon he dodged all the attack. And with great timing, he attacked the monster at the right moment pushing it in a different direction.

And because of that timing, he was able to make out the silhouette of the monster that attacked him.

"No wonder I can't see it. It was a drake."

That's right it was a drake a land dragon. It is an A-rank monster that is in the dragon lineage like Klein's Wyvern Kreg. 

It is said that the wyverns are the masters of the sky while the drake is the lord of the lands. What Jayven is facing right now is fire-element drake and as explained from it's speed it is a small mobile version of it.

There are many elements for many types of drakes. But one thing one should be wary about is its figure. There are two distinct types of it the big and bulky one that is tanky and gives heavy damage with every attack, earning it the name earthshakers

What Jayven is facing right now is light and small stature which speed it produces is faster than most monsters. Not to mention its tough scale that helps with air resistance making it faster with its movement. Which people call it windbreakers.
