I splashed my head with water, pondering.
That was the first thing I did when I got to the second floor.
The main thing I did was to go back up the stairs, and watch the situation. But the situation I know is getting worse. And there, I'm sure my decision to escape was right.
After all, I have found no way to fight him!!
That's an impossibility, really.
I don't know how to describe it, but the closest to the creature is a snake monster with sharp fangs and a body 10 meters long.
The diameter of the body reaches 1 meter, dsn has legs. So it's more similar in the direction of the lizard perhaps? Or dragons?
His skin was noisy, with the same reddish color as the lava he was swimming in, with several stones covering his skin which made it seem even more terrifying.
Yep. I didn't say it wrong. It was actually swimming in the lava!!
I first somewhat distrusted my vision, but after the heat that stung my body reminded me again, I believed that it was real.
It was also capable of spitting out flames like the dragon dragon that was in the fairy tale.
Ahhh, how to fight that... I obviously can't fight at close range, and it's very impossible for me to fight at long range. After all, what could possibly injure those hard scales and skin??!!
I sat down, feeling annoyed at myself.
This Dungeon is like not letting me go. The more I wished, the bigger this Dungeon told me that it was an impossible thing.
That monster is no longer something I can handle with ordinary status.
"Ahhh, damn it.." I growled softly, wanting to cry.
Fei's great sword was smashed to melt. I could try to use the [Storm Dagger], but I cannot sacrifice an extremely valuable item for something useless.
Even that's immune to lava, right? What again?!
"UAHHH!!" I could only growl furiously, kicking the tree in front of me with all my might.
***
And from then on, I could only go back and forth from the second floor to the third floor, without successfully making any progress.
I decided to explore the second floor first, until I spent almost all the monsters on the second floor. But, it didn't really calm my heart, because sometimes the lizard monsters appeared and tried to attack me.
And the news was very bad, the lizard monster was not just one or two.
I've met 7 of them all the way around, and I'm sure it's not all. It could be that there are still people hiding at the bottom of the lava, and waiting to attack me.
For several months, I've managed to explore the entire place on the second floor. I even found the stairs to the third floor.
But, the ladder was covered by an invisible guardrail. Likely, this limit will only be opened if I defeat the monster species that became the "boss" on the floor.
But something even more terrifying was something that was around the gate to the fourth floor.
There was a lot of ice surrounding the gate, and the air I felt was much different from the third floor. I was also confused, how could the ice not melt on this hot third floor?
Ahh, this is terrible.
As Fei explained, the fourth floor was an ice hell. It could be more annoying than this floor.
But, I have to think about how to get through this floor first.
Fei's been through it before, surely he knows something. But, he was a hero who had already defeated a demon lord before. A monster like this is just a keroco to him, for sure.
I want to cry, really. No, I had a chance to cry because of this, so I couldn't say that.
Well, at least, I will try even harder!!
***
A few months have passed. It has now been a year since I was dropped into this Dungeon. And here, I found out a few things.
No, sorry. I was desperate, but I'm still going to try a few things.
First, I found out that I can't age here. One year, but my hair didn't go long, and my height didn't change one bit.
Although the muscle that used to be not very visible, now looks like a bodybuilder, I don't seem to change much.
But somehow it didn't grow so big that it blocked my movement.
The second, I discovered that at night, the third floor contained no lava, so I knew that day and night on the second floor were caused by the movement of this lava.
As the lava began to fill up on the third floor, it meant that the second floor started at noon, as well as if the night on the floor he arrived.
And that's when, I could see the lizard monster walking at the bottom of the ravine, seen chatting while waiting for the cow to fall. Not a few of them who went up to the top spewed fire like toys at me.
Then, the third information, I cannot defeat the third floor boss.
Yep!!! Almost every way I've tried to beat him, or even just scratch him. But as I thought, it was useless.
Throwing it with wind magic, stabbing it with a stone spear, trying to make a giant arrow with a big sword, making a high-speed object to pierce through his body, all I've done.
But what do I get? Nil!!
The magic ruined it a little, but it came and scorched my hand a little.
The stone spear was unable to injure him. A high-speed arrow needed precision to pierce through its scales, and the melted great sword was exposed to its true skin as hot as lava.
I once tried to hit him with a giant rock, but it was agile enough to dodge. And out of dozens of experiments, only one experiment was successful.
It happened until I ran out of boulders to pin down on him.
I don't know what else to do.
Right now I can only do my usual daily life, hunting down the cows and raising my strength little by little, while constantly thinking of ways to defeat the monster.
CESSSS...
I was grilling meat, staring deep at the monster playing. I now have a place that continues to flow lava, even though the lava in the gorge has disappeared. So, I was able to grill meat continuously.
"Is it my destiny to end up here??" I complained slowly.
"Well, even though I grew stronger, and managed to kill the monster, but I'm sure it's not anytime soon. At the very least, I need another 1 and a half years." I took out a bottle, started drinking.
TASS!!
"Ouch!!" a small flake of hot rock flew into my hand, making me jump right away, throwing my drink to relieve the heat.
Accidentally, the water I brought was spilled into the lava.
"No!! My precious water!!" I shouted slowly, as my water disappeared absorbed the lava, disappearing into steam.
The water here is precious, so as much as possible I don't want to lose it in the slightest!!
"Humm?"
I raised an eyebrow looking at the lava that had been hit by that water.
"What is it, dimming a little??" I asked you a question.
I saw it again, it dimmed a little. But it warmed up again because it was surrounded by other lava.
And that's when I thought of something.
"It could be!!" that's what I screamed.
I felt so happy that I forgot what to do. But obviously, this will change the future I have!!
Alright!!! I'll try!!
