Chapter 7
Chapter 7
Zach entered the 6th floor, and the first thing he noticed was the scenery and the temperature.
On the first five-floor, the temperature was neutral, and the dungeons looked like actual dungeons.
However, on the 6th floor, everything was different.
The temperature was cold, and the scenery was in the snowy mountains. But, the area was limited.
"Let’s see..." He glanced around to confirm the monsters hadn’t spawned yet.
’If it is a snowy area, then the only monster I can think of is—’
GROWL!
A snow wolf growled from the high ground and slowly approached Zach.
"Bingo!" Zach wasn’t even thinking of wolves. He was thinking of polar bears, and bears don’t look like wolves.
[Level 5. Snow Wolf! HP- 500/500.]
Zach jumped backward and stood at the edge of the dungeon floor to get a clear view of the area.
"I don’t want another wolf to come and bite me," he muttered.
He waited for another wolf to appear, but to his surprise, there was only one wolf on floor 6.
"This doesn’t look hard..." Zach made sure to keep some distance between him and the wolf.
The wolf jumped down and slowly walked to Zach while staring into his eyes as if it was looking at Zach as its prey.
The wolf circled around Zach as he also kept moving back to keep some distance between them.
Both Zach and the wolf were glaring into each other’s eyes and walking in sync. Their legs were moving uniformly, as though both of them were waiting for the opponent to make the first attack.
Zack knew it was risky to fight the monster he had never fought before. He didn’t even know what type of skill and attack the wolf might use.
After closing some distance with the wolf, Zach gripped his sword firmly and stepped forward to make the first move. However, the wolf did the same.
Zach took one step further, and the wolf walked one step ahead. Suddenly, the wolf jumped and swung his claw at Zach.
Zach dodged it, but he got a scratch and lost 9 HP.
[391/400]
’It’s fast! But..’
The wolf once again started circling Zach and looked for the opportunity to attack. However, it was waiting for Zach to make a move so it could take him by surprise.
Zach used the same strategy again. He took one step closer, and so did the wolf. Then, instead of taking a few more minor steps, Zach ran past the wolf.
The wolf tried to attack Zach, but it was too late. He had cut the wolf into two from its jaw to tail.
"But I am faster," Zach uttered in a relaxed pose.
[Received 50 EXP!]
"What?!" Zach exclaimed. "Only 50?! But... I guess it’s better than the 10 EXP from the goblins." Zach sighed in frustration and looked at the time.
"I wasted five minutes in this battle," he asserted. "I hope the next floor has more wolves, although I do need to be careful."
Zach entered the blue portal and proceeded to floor 7.
He stood in the center with his sword gripped tightly in his hand and uttered, "Let’s hope there are five wolves."
’But... even if there are five wolves, I would only get 250 XP. I will need to defeat 47 more wolves...’ Zach watched as three wolves surrounded him from all sides.
[Level 10. Fury Wolves! HP- 1000/1000.]
"Tch!" he clicked his tongue and uttered with his voice full of annoyance: "Only three. It seems the game is trying to stop me from reaching level 5."
’You won’t get between me and my 5000 coins reward, you stupid game!’
Normally, any player would be happy if the monsters were low-numbered, but Zach was different. He wanted to reach level 5 as soon as possible. He was curious to see if the coins in-game were truly added to his bank account.
Up until now, Zach played the previous six floors seriously, but now he was about to play furiously.
He beckoned the wolf with his one hand and tossed the sword in fashion to make himself look cool, and he indeed looked cool.
Zach dashed at the wolves with his sword still in the air.
The first wolf jumped on Zach to attack him, but Zach simply punched the wolf in the face and killed it.
"Plus 500 ATK, baby."
The second wolf jumped on Zach from behind with its mouth wide open to devour Zach. Without looking back, Zach grabbed the wolf’s tail and slammed the wolf on the ground.
Zach raised his hand in the air to grab his falling sword and stabbed the wolf into the abdomen.
Zach was so fast that everything happened in a matter of seconds.
The last remaining wolf jumped on Zach only to be cleaved.
[Received 150 EXP!]
EXP-350/2500
Zach looked at his EXP bar and murmured, "This is going take a while, isn’t it?"
"Well, I am already on floor 8, so I might as well just clear the first ten floors and complete another quest too." Zach decided. "It’s going to be like spanking two butts at the same time."
That was something obvious.
Zach entered the 8th floor and uttered, "I am guessing this one will have five wolves."
As Zach had guessed, five wolves jumped down from the high ground.
[Level 15. Rouge Wolves! HP- 1500/1500.]
Zach knew that as he proceeded to the next floors, the wolves would only get stronger. They might not die in one hit, but Zach was aware that the wolf’s weak point was their abdomen.
[Received 250 EXP]
After killing the five wolves, he entered the portal to proceed to floor 9.
"This one should have ten wolves," Zach proclaimed nonchalantly.
Ten pairs of red eyes glowed in the mist of the snow. Their size was double that of the level 10 fury wolves, and they had extra furs around their body, making it hard for the sword to cut through.
[Level 20. High wolves! HP- 2000/2000]
’I bet they are going to be called ’Royal wolves’ on the next floor,’ Zach sneered.
The mist eventually faded away, and the wolves jumped down from the high ground to play with Zach.

Author’s Note- I skipped the fight on floor 8. Why? Because the fight was getting repetitive and I am sure you guys would be annoyed.
