I quickly used [Dash] to move around the area dodging the attacks of the shadow wolves. However, it was getting hard as the headless scouts also started to intervene. I then used [Dash] again to appear on the ceiling.
Pointing my staff to the ground I activated [Fire Blast] which caused a large expulsion to envelope the area below me. However, I didn't receive any kill notifications causing me to click my tongue.
Using [Dash] again I appeared on the other side of the room and slid onto the floor yet I quickly activated it again as a sword was coming down on my head. I quickly created a barrier before I activated [Flameforge].
Swinging my staff I quickly killed three shadow wolves before I used [Dash] to appear in front of a scout. I quickly thrust my staff into its chest before I activated [Fire Blast].
*BOOM*
A small explosion happened in front of me however, the notification in front of me caused me to smile.
[You've killed [Headless Scout lvl 16]!]
[+465 EXP]
I waited for a bit before I then quickly jumped in the air causing the 3 shadow wolves that were charging toward me to collide with each other.
However, then a medium-sized glowing sphere appeared above them and in the next second the loud expulsion happened causing me to be sent flying in the air along with kill and exp notifications.
Landing on the floor I slid and used [Flameforge] my staff turned into a flaming sword. Activating [Dash] I appeared in front of a group of headless scouts who were charging toward me. With a single swing of my staff, I aimed for a certain area of their ribs.
With one swing the trio was then cut in half causing them to turn into pixels.
3 Headless Scout (525)
However, I then quickly used [Dash] allowing to dodge the giant blade that was going to me into 2. Looking behind me I saw a giant skeleton holding a giant sword. It glowing red eyes locked on to me causing me to hold my breath.
I then crouched and used [Flameforge] causing a long blade of flames to pierce a shadow wolf that was above me.
However, as I was about to use [Dash] purple chains popped from the gouda and started wrapping around my limbs then it was followed by a few messages.
[Warning!]
[The curse [Lifewell] has been applied!]
[Debuff applied]
[ -17 HP]
"Ah, shit,"
Lifewell was a curse that was used by undead and warlocks to drain the one inflicted on their HP. Every minute the curse takes away 17 HP meaning right now I had around 8 minutes left. The curse could only be lifted by killing the castor meaning right now I had to kill the barrow wight.
However, right now this may be a tuff.
Looking around me I saw the rest of the 4 shadow wolves charging toward me. Quickly creating a barrier I then cast [Fire Blast] causing a loud explosion to happen causing a flood of notifications to appear.
I then quickly activated [Fire Arrow] which caused 3 arrows made of pure flames to appear on my staff. I then quickly activated [Dash] allowing me to appear behind the three of the Headless Scouts. Launching the arrows I watched as they quickly penetrated 2 of the three scouts.
However, as the third arrow was about to penetrate the scout it swung its sword destroying the arrow. But as a consequence of that, its sword was destroyed yet it didn't seem to be bothered.
[Health: 104/138]
Using [Flameforgde] I quickly used [Dash] to appear in front of the scout and swung my staff splitting it in 2.
I then created a barrier around me and then the next second a giant sword landed on the barrier. I could make out a few cracks that started form as the sword hit the barrier. But then when the barrier disappeared I used [Dash] to move out of the way.
I then used [Dash] again to appear behind a shadow wolf and stabbed it through the head. Aiming my staff at the barrow wight I activated [Fire Blast] causing a loud explosion however, not much happened as the other scouts started to head toward me. There were three of them in total so it wouldn't be hard to get rid of them.
Creating a few flame arrows I shot them at the scouts and they killed all three of them. I then started to run toward the barrow wight.
Using [Dash] I made it above the barrow wight however, as I appeared above it I saw a sword that was coming toward me. Just as the sword was about to hit me I created a barrier however, despite that I was thrown against the wall.
"Gah!"
Hitting the wall I looked at my HP.
[Health: 47/138]
Quickly getting up I waited for the barrow wight to get closer. Small orbs of light then appeared right beside it before they exploded. Using [Dash] I went through its legs and activated [Flameforgde].
Using [Dash] again I appeared behind the Barrow Wight before I swung my staff. Due to the damage the barrow wight was forced to move forward. I then used [Fireblast] causing 5 small spheres of light to appear and in the next second a loud expulsion followed.
Landing on the floor I let out a breath and looked at the pixelating creature in front of me.
[You've Gained 15,000 EXP]
[You've Cleared a Dungeon!]
[+100,000 EXP]
[You've Levelled up!]
[You've Levelled up!]
After leaving the dungeon I then rented an inn. Laying down on the bed I let out a breath before I looked at my status screen.

'Hm'
The next thing I had to do was kill the Mayor Theobald. Remembering the video from my previous life, I knew that he was at least level 24 and had a few skills which would be a hassle to deal with.
With my current abilities, I had doubted that I would be able to kill him but I still had a weapon that could help. But I also had the wolves bain which would help.
That being said I wasn't going to use it here as it would be wasteful.
This meant I had to use all of the stat points which was the plan from the beginning.
Thinking for a bit I measured the pros and cons before I distributed them.

Getting up from the bed I looked at the night sky which had a full pale moon in the air. With a deep sigh, I then exited the room.
"Let's just get this over with, then sleep"
