Dungeon Prowler : One Man Army 127 Weakling

The new attack had a major downside, there was a lot of wasted mana, however, that also freed Yunan to pursue a new venue of training, handless casting, if one could cast multiple spells with only two hands then it stood to reason that one did not need hands to cast spells, and with Yunan having very few spells that need more than three word incantations, his ability to try and build the magical construct by ejecting mana through a certain body part was the hardest problem he faced.

It took a month to finish the mapping and getting to the last boss of the 14th floor. The boss was a 3 headed big dog for lack of better description, it was a Canidae (the genetic family that has canines in it, like dogs and wolfs and foxes) with the heads of a wolf, a fox and a jackal, it gave the feeling of something you want to sleep while hugging it, but the amounts of magic that spread from its heads was not to be trifled with.

The fight was not as easy as one can a.s.sume, for the boss could split off a body for each head when needed, and then absorb them again to recreate the 3 headed boss. Yunan did was having his work cut out for him as he dodged more than he could deal damage or counter attack. The boss had impeccable coordination and could sp.a.w.n extra legs to attack with when it found a place where it could pressure Yunan.

And so Yunan decided to focus on the most troublesome head and kill it before going for the rest, the wind element head, it had the ability to increase the speed of all three bodies as well as send gusts of wind to delay or push Yunan into an attack, keeping him busy. Yunan went for the simplest strategy, get eaten, he threw himself into the maw of the jackal and discharged 20% of his mana as lighting literally frying the monster from the inside out.

It did not end there, the next target was the direwolf, Yunan chose to coat himself in spitting flames and jumped on its back and clung to the back of its neck, promoting the fox to use its flames trying to burn Yunan and only successfully deal damage to its own body. Yunan also took the chance to hack at its spine and try to find a location to sever its spine and disable it for a little bit. Thanks to the cloak of spitting flames, Yunan was safe from both magical attacks, since fire and ice cancel each other out, and draconic flames outcla.s.sed fox flames, there was no need to guard and simply focus on the objective.

Being burnt and stabbed repeatedly, the direwolf started to slow down, its regeneration was not as good as it was and the overall performance started to suffer as well, it ended with Yunan severing its spinal cord and letting it try to heal while it lay paralyzed. The fox head was the easiest part by far, all Yunan had to do was grab hold of it and start dealing critical damage while ignoring its fire attacks.

The fight ended after an hour of struggle, Yunan fed the boss to the armor and sat down to rest and heal himself, his mana was dangerously low and his physical body was battered b.l.o.o.d.y, an the armour had c.h.i.n.ks and scratches on it. As Yunan opened the chest behind the boos he found a blue book called "traceless casting" it had the outrageous convenience of using the mana core as a type of storage for all the spell constructs.

Basically the book offered the ability to create the magical construct to any spell the user has learned, only once and never again, it also omitted the chants and incantations, but the amounts of mana required to cast the spells rose up as compensation, the mastery of this skill would reduce the cast time for mastered spells, this gave Yunan another push to practice his spells.

After learning the new skill and resting well enough, Yunan headed to the 15 floor and the first sight that welcomed him was a group of beauties fighting against two raging minotaurs, they were not struggling but there was an old man barking orders from a safe distance, probably their trainer, or group leader either way Yunan had a bad feeling about him, so he flashed by the minotaurs and with one swing of his sword both were decapitated.

It was easy to do this if Yunan choose to rely on his armor more, after all with the 100% buff to all attributes active, he was already able to fight on par with Level 19 monsters, him struggling was Yunan only calling the power of his own body ignoring the buff, but that extra power was still there to use at anytime.

After the heads landed the old man rushed towards the corpses and took out his swords as if threatening Yunan to leave them alone, Yunan simply kept walking forward leaving behind 2 pristine bodies worth a lot of money, he could hear the old man scolding the girls for being too slow and not killing as fast as Yunan. That man was a type of weakling who majored in wisdom, not that he had any smarts to speak of. Debauchery called them battle slavers, they buy some slaves and train them in combat, then enter the dungeon with them and let them fight for him. Debauchery had a rule for those types when they made trouble for them, capture or kill the battle slaves and leave the weakling to fend for himself, most of these weaklings only acc.u.mulated attribute points by eating monsters from the dungeon.
