These three...

On the bright side, they are going back into that first bifurcation they avoided earlier.
>
Isn't that even better? Two birds with one stone.
>
And what do we do about her?
>
We don't have nearly enough EP for that! You know it!
>
Oh... Those...
>
I... did. Sorry bout that. We still need to get a room for them to stay right?
>
Can I make it like, so nobody can go in or out? Closing it off?
>
YOU EXPLAINED ME SHIT! But hey! Does that mean I can make the passages towards here so small they can only get here crawling like the extra corridors?
>
Large sized monster? What does that even mean?
>
Oh... Crap... But I still can make other paths smaller. Hehe...
>
So... I could make a windy path almost impossible for an adult human to go through without literally crawling? So long as it's not the path from the entrance to here?
>
Gloria, oh Gloria... So Naive...
System, make me a large room to the side of here. Make it like this:
...
The whole cave trembled for a second as minor yet important changes took place. Gloria watched in Awe as more than 50 goblins slowly showed up, pulling unconscious humans. Some of them were simply paralized, moving their eyes desperately trying to understand what was happening around them. Others were so disfigured they barely reminded her of humans anymore. Their whole bodies had been consumed by acid, some, all the way to the bone. Yet, they were still alive, their blood and gore painting the floor red as the goblins pulled them along into the newly created room, better yet, Dungeon.
As soon as most of the goblins came out of the long corridor, the room shook as it contracted. Only a small opening remained, barely large enough for a human to get in.

Yet, Gunther knew leaving was almost impossible... Even air would have difficulty getting out of there.
On this side, the hole was near the bottom, but on the other, it was almost 15 feet up, near the ceiling, and the corridor that was only 10 meters long before, now was a complicated maze in the shape of a three dimensional Tesla Valve. The shortest path still would take several hours for a human to go through, as it snaked into the wall.
It was almost impossible to hear what was taking place in there.
A group of 10 goblins suddenly appeared from the shadows behind the dungeon core, and slowly made their way into the newly made small tunnel.
>
Of course not... I researched it while you slept! You idiot!
>
Yeah right. Fuck you. but there you go.
System! Show me the status of one of them.
>
Oh... But it was dirty cheap...
>
Yeah... Apparently the Sadistic and Insanity traits are a bad thing so their cost started to lower... It's mostly because it says if they get bored they'll turn onto other monsters and murder them...
>
Oh... But I have the Goblin Commander Title... It should be fine... I won't let them get bored, see... I spent over 1000EP on Lower Healing potions so they can have their fun and all...
>
Why wouldn't I be?
You are a confusing person you know. Why would I not be a human? Just because I'm torturing them for points and don't care? I'm not even from this world for fucks sake.
>
>
... Fuck you System!
I'm a normal person. N O R M A L!
Screw both of you
Oh fuck this shit! I'm out!
---------------------------------------------------
*Rumble*
"The fuck was this?!"
"I have no idea... But it's not a good sign... We better find that bitch quick!"

"You still on about this? Why don't we just go back and get reinforcements? This is a dungeon Gahan! A dungeon!"
"I'm not leaving this hellhole without her! I've paid a huge price already Garth! We lost him! I'm not going out of here empty handed!"
"Okay, okay. I get it. But let's leave as soon as possible. This place is getting more ominous by the minute! We haven't found a single enemy all this time."
"I know that... still..."
The pair of mercenaries walked up, advancing once more after the false alarm.
Beneath them, three more mercenaries made their way back towards the Rally point.
*CRACK* *BRACK*
"GAHAN!"
"GARTH! JUMP!"
As the two jumped up. The whole flooring of the cave they were in collapsed. Into the cave system below.
"RUN BACK! THE CEILING'S COLLAPSING!"
"FUUUUUUUCK!"
"HELP!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
GHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!
A scream of pain resounded elsewhere in the dungeon, in a closed room where nobody but two people could hear.

So I'm a cat, what now?
It seems I've reincarnated into a fantasy world as a cat. What now? This is my first publically published story, and I would love feedback in any form as I have no idea how well the quality of my writing holds up. This story will have light litRPG elements, though I won't dig into numbers much, since I don't enjoy fiddling with them. The tone will be generally light, and I willl probably try to throw some comedy in there as well. The beginning will be Slice of Life, and unless I come up with a longer plot that I like it will stay that way.

I'm a Veteran Adventurer in a World without Healing Magic.
It's a fantasy world just like any other, orcs, elves, monsters, adventurer's guilds... Just one catch, though: there's no such thing as healing magic. Get a nasty wound from the monster you're fighting? There's nothing to patch you up, not so much as a red potion or a cure light wounds spell! All you can rely on are mundane medical procedures to help you get back on your feet. And those don't come cheap! You can probably guess that injuries that in other worlds would be minor are rather costly in one where the priest class doesn't exist. What kind of dungeoneering community springs up in an atmosphere where a simple cut can mean lethal infection? How do dungeon crawlers find workarounds when conventional combat proves too dangerous? A veteran warrior who senses his time is near puts to pen a final record, a shocking tell-all about his adventuring career...
