Chapter 12 – Charming aura.


    I entered the dungeon and cleared my mind. If I get distracted, I could end up dead, even though these first floors are very easy. My status is already very high, enough for me not to worry.


    I want to know how strong I am in this world, but the system did not show me! Rank H, I? G? Well, I think I set my falna pretty urately. The values I set were higher than usual.


    ''Speaking of system, I barely tested the [Dark Magic] skillst time. I didn''t know how to use it well, and the system didn''t show me how.''


    I tried saying various words to activate the magic, but nothing worked. It only worked when I tried using my imagination. However, its power was very weak. I couldn''t even kill a goblin.


    Iunched a dark spear and threw small balls to simte a firearm. But it didn''t cause any damage. It''s useless at LV1. ''If I try to create a barrier with it, I''ll probably die.''


    It will probably level up as I keep using it. So, that''s what I''ll do.


    While killing monsters with my sword, I also used [Dark Magic] to create distractions. It''s pretty useful for that. And after almost an hour, the notification finally arrived.


    <strong>[The skill "Dark Magic" leveled up!]</strong>


    <strong>["Dark Magic" is now level 2!]</strong>


    ''Let''s test this. It should be a bit stronger now.'' I searched for some monsters and found a lone goblin. It looked sad and lonely, so I should end its misery.


    ''Let''s tryunching a spear… Or an arrow. I can''t think of anything else. I can''t create weapons, and I can''t castrge-scale magic, so I must use this.''


    It was easy.


    In my mind, an arrow appeared, and the magic flowed naturally, creating an arrow that flew towards the goblin.


    I didn''t even need to point my hand like an idiot. The arrow just flew to the goblin.


    <em>VUOSH~~</em>


    Flying at high speed, the arrow hit the goblin''s forehead. As expected, it didn''t cause a fatal wound. The dark arrow made a shallow hole in the goblin''s forehead, and the goblin fell backward. After that, the arrow disappeared.


    ''It''s better than before, but still not enough to kill these monsters. I need to raise my magic status and level up the skill.''


    After my tests, I continued hunting on the second floor until I reached 50 experience points again. As before, I received only one point, and the experience points were reset.


    I hope to get more points as I go down.


    ''Should I go to the third floor for a test?'' Since not much time has passed, I think I have time for some tests. The big problem will be finding the passage to the third floor.


    It took a while, a long time. It''s not even worth mentioning the annoying adventurers I met along the way. I felt like killing them, as they seemed weak.


    However, if I killed someone in here, Hestia would find out since she sees what happens inside.


    I can''t do anything stupid.


    And already on the third floor… I was just disappointed. I killed some monsters I encountered, including some Dungeon Lizards. Still, in the end, I only gained one experience point for each kill.


    It''s very irritating.


    ''At least now I know I won''t get stronger fast killing monsters. I need to get a member for my harem soon to keep getting stronger.''


    I left the dungeon and returned to my room, carrying a total of over 70 stones and more than 70 items. Most were stones and items from goblins and kobolds, but some were from dungeon lizards.


    They were items that would give me a good amount of money. Not enough to go to the entertainment district again, but enough to eat and survive for a few days. Hestia will be happy with this.


    I bathed and went to the guild to get the money.


    After getting the money, I went to the church. When I arrived, I found someone I didn''t expect to see.


    ''Hermes? What is he doing here talking to Hestia? Did something happen?'' I was curious, but I waited until he left to approach Hestia.


    "What was Hermes doing here? I didn''t think I''d see him here."


    "Oh, Luan, you finally returned! How was it inside the dungeon? Did you get hurt?"


    "Don''t worry about it. I only went to the third floor. It wasn''t difficult."


    "The third floor? Did you go that far already? I thought you would stay on the first two floors for a while."


    "I told you I would be a great adventurer and enrich our Familia, right? Now tell me, what was Hermes doing here? Is he curious about me or something?"


    "About you? Why would he be? I did talk to him about you, but he just came to chat and see how I am. It was nice to see him; I hadn''t seen him in a while."


    "I see. Here''s the money. Do you want me to prepare something for us again today?"


    "Of course! But we can''t spend all the money. We must start saving to buy a better weapon for you!"


    "A better weapon? I don''t need that for now. And don''t do anything stupid like going into debt to get me a weapon, ok?"


    "What? I would never do something like that, idiot."


    "I have my doubts about that. Now let''s go inside."


    I''ll spend the night with Hestia today, and I''ll go after Aisha again tomorrow. She''s the only character I can think of who could join my harem now that she''s already pregnant.


    But it won''t be easy. Aisha is not a character who will abandon Haruhime and her Familia toe live with me.


    ''But as long as I can have her to sleep with me, it''s enough. I need a woman to fuck and get stronger while I go after other girls for my harem.''


    <strong>[New mission avable!]</strong>


    <strong>[Get the first member for your harem!]</strong>


    <strong>[Reward: "Charming Aura LV1"]</strong>


    ''A new skill. Wonderful.''
