“Weak, you guys are way too weak.”

Allen has a twisted smile on his face. He is hunting down every monster, he is coming across. Even when he was dying he had the same wicked smile on his face. The amount of killing intent flowing out from his body is enough to scare the weak monsters away. But Allen didn’t get anyone escape.It was an absolute massacre.

“My inventory is full of useless stuff. Maybe I can sell them all once I have the store access. I am gonna keep all of it till then. “

“One more level to go.”

The first floor of the dungeon was mostly full of goblins and imps. And occasionally a few trolls here and there. Allen gained one level from fighting all the monsters in the dungeon. The goblins and imps were around level 5 but the trolls were around level 8.

The amount of XP needed for a person to level up is decided by the amount of intelligence that person has. And the higher amount of wisdom you have, the faster you learn skills. These two attributes also decide the amount of damage you can do with magic. Allen had pretty high Intelligence and wisdom from the get-go because he was a genius in his previous life. If he worked hard enough, he could have probably gone to space or maybe even cure cancer. But no he was too lazy to do that.

Even if he did that nothing would have changed much. In pretty much all the parallel dimensions in which Allen’s Dad and sister died due to war, Allen ended up as a terrorist. I guess that is what people call fate. Although there are a few Allens who has lived there lives peacefully till the end of their lives.

“Oh, it seems like there is a group of goblins trying to attack me. It seems like one of them is the boss.”

Good for you, Allen. You can finally reach level 10.

“It seems like the boss is decently strong. Rest are just trash.”

The boss is a Hobgoblin Shaman. Here is his status if you are curious.

Hobgoblins are the higher evolution of Goblins. Most of the higher evolution try to go to lower levels to become stronger. But it is also risky. Some of them stay on the top floors even after Evolution. The strongest of monsters in a specific region is given the title of “Boss”.

The Boss has boosted power level as long as he stays in his own region. If some monster manages to defeat the boss monster then he becomes the boss of the area. The lost monster losses his achievement and become a normal monster again. The boss also loses the title if he leaves his area of control.

The Boss orders his minions to attack Allen and they do so. Allen just punches the goblins who come anywhere near him. Some of them die instantly others land on the ground and get back up and run back into the fight just to die. Allen is not even bothering to use his skills other than the martial arts. Although his SP is still decreasing a little bit.

‘A lot of his stats are at 73.Hobgoblins are clearly the evolutions of goblins. Most of the goblins I have seen so far had 1 digit status on everything other than strength and defence. Only a few of them had a higher status of Intelligence and wisdom.’

‘Most of the goblins had a status which is usually one higher than their current level. From what I have seen so far.Each and every time I level up I get one point upon every status. It seems like the goblins can evolve once they reach level 50. And this Hobgoblin seemed to have focused on Intelligence and wisdom instead of Strength or defence like other goblins. He is probably a mage. I should watch out for his spells.’

Allen’s movements are slowing down. It is not quite enough for him to stop slaughter on the goblins.

‘What is happening? I feel like I am being slowed down by something. It feels like my entire body is getting heavier.’

‘Could it be?’

Allen looks towards the Hobgoblin as he keeps punching the goblins who come near him to attack him. Hobgoblin takes his staff up and points it towards Allen.2 balls of fire appears from the stick and goes towards Allen.

“Shit!”

Allen tries to dodge but he can’t seem to do it.

‘My body feels too heavy. I don’t think I can dodge it.’

The fireballs keep coming towards Allen at the speed of which feels like the speed of a normal baseball pitch.

‘I don’t wanna get hit by that.’

Allen raises his hands in front of him. He channels his chi and forms a glowing shield-like thingie in front of him. Two of the fireballs hits the shield and explodes. Allen flies away due to the impact of the fireballs. He hits the wall of the dungeon and falls down on the floor.

[You have unlocked new skills]

The Shaman fires another fireball towards Allen who is now sitting on the ground.

Allen catches the fireball on his bare hands which was glowing due to his concentrating chi on his hand. Allen throws the fireball towards the group of goblins who were heading towards him. The fireball explodes and most of the goblins die instantly.

[You have leveled up]

[You have unlocked a new Achievement]

Allen has that wicked smile on his face again. It seems like the Hobgoblin is gonna get absolutely fucked.
