5 Another Dungeon
Another month had passed by quickly and not only did Azaroth focus on honing his POD to perfection but he practiced his Spellcasting too.
So far, He had gotten Beginner grade Fire Spells down without too much trouble. He could even use them without chanting now.
The spars with Grayfia had gotten hotter as well, If Grayfia was at 3% of her power before, She might as well be using 7% now as she was coming at him with even higher speed and strength.
Everyday Azaroth practiced POD conversion too, he was hoping to convert the destructive force known as POD into a calmer force like Infinity.
Although Infinity was badass, Azaroth knew the energy composition of Infinity didn't work to corrode the opponent so Azaroth's current mission was to remove the Destruction from POD.
#####
Azaroth sat in the Gremory library, his eyes going through the Beginner Spellcasting book. He had gotten fire spells down in nothing less than a month.
'Who knows, Perhaps I had a hidden talent in it all,' Rem thought, He opened his Status.
…
[LEVEL: 5]
[HP – 800 / 800]
[MP – 100 / 100]
[Fatigue – 0]
[STR: 19]
[AGI: 20]
[PER: 17]
[VIT: 16]
[INT: 13]
[Attribute Points: 4]
…
Azaroth learned that increasing attributes didn't incessantly mean Leveling up, As long as Azaroth had Attribute points, He could be in LV. 5 and still have stats over 100.
It had already been 2 months since he found himself in this world and there was nothing much to show for it, Other than the facts that his stats were higher than before.
His growth and leveling had been faster when he went to the Dungeon but sadly for Azaroth, Dungeon keys were a rare item. Since the incident of chilling his room a month ago which led to his first Dungeon key, He hadn't encountered any other key.
'If only I had access to dungeons, Just like Sung Jin-Woo did…'
Sung Jin-Woo was always getting stronger because he was always had dungeons to visit at hand, there were many opponents that wanted him dead, He was to be the next Shadow Monarch.
But Azaroth Gremory, He wasn't blessed with such a luxury that allowed him to get to dungeons so easily.
'Wait…'
Azaroth's deep blue eyes flickered as he opened the Shop and searched for Dungeon keys.
He found the item rather quickly, even the System was giving him a once-in-a-month discount for the dungeon keys.
The original price was 120 per key but a single Dungeon key cost 100 due to the discount which reduced the price by 20.
20 wasn't too much of a discount but to Azaroth who only had 100 Gold, It was a Lifesaver but what if he got sent to an E-rank demonic dungeon… He would earn less than 100 Gold which would not let him buy another Dungeon key.
Azaroth quickly purchased the Dungeon key and remembered that Grayfia was not going to be around today.
He used the Dungeon key and golden glimmers of lightning emerged from the gate opening which was not too far away from him.
Azaroth quickly walked into the golden dungeon gate which looked very different from the last gate he entered.
#####
[Congratulations on Entering a D-grade Dungeon]
Azaroth gratefully looked at the message, he would be able to use his newly learned Fire Magic over here and if it got too gruesome, He could always equip his Gauntlet of Destruction and finish it up with a new spell he had been working on with his Power Of Destruction.
Upon taking a step forward, Gremory magic circles burst to life around his palms. He took a deep breath and saw an orange name floating in the air, even though it's figure was concealed in the shadows.
'BLOODHOUND'
Azaroth raised his right hand and brilliant bursts of flames rolled within the magic circle before exploding forward as a ball of breathtaking fire which collided with the bloodhound, sending pained screams through the air as the beast burned into a crisp.
Another name flickered into his line of sight as Azaroth dodged to the left, narrowly evading a strike from another Bloodhound.
Unlike the first time he had been in the dungeon, These monsters were more active.
'Might that have been a Tutorial,' Azaroth thought as thick crimson flames wrapped around his right hand and he shot another Fireball toward the other Bloodhound.
Piercing screams filled the air, Unlike the Power Of Destruction which worked to end them once, Unfortunately fire didn't carry such properties.
Azaroth dashed forward as he hurried into the dungeon, the gate had disappeared behind him.
As Azaroth moved, he could feel his legs a lot lighter than when he was here the last time, he was able to move a lot more freely now than before and it was all thanks to the beautiful white haired devil, Grayfia.
'Some monsters are behind me,' Azaroth thought.
His perception was high enough to sense that there were monsters coming at him from behind, three monsters to be precise.
Although Azaroth couldn't turn around to check, He was sure they were Bloodhounds by predicting the rate at which they were able to keep up with his movements.
A magic circle spread around his feet and Azaroth smiled while shooting forward with even more speed, Agility was his highest stat after all.
As the first bloodhound made contact with the Magic circle, it glowed and a pillar of flames emerged from it- shooting high into the air and coming in contact with the ceiling of the Dungeon, billowing red hot flames which consumed the Bloodhounds.
This spell was beginner grade but it amplified in strength depending on the amount of MP you could pour into it, Azaroth poured in a lot so he guessed it would be around the strength of an Intermediate grade spell.
'But utilizing that makes my MP run out immensely,' Azaroth thought, He only had about 40 points left.
Azaroth stopped and a small portal appeared in front of him, he put his hand in and brought out a small potion.
"This is a magical potion, It is used to replenish magical energy," Azaroth said.
As how he got access to such a hefty amount of magical potions, Rias had them stocked in her storage room… He just took 35 out of some hundreds, She wouldn't notice right?
He opened the cork and drank down the contents, The effects were instant as magical energy filled his body. After previous experimentation, This Magical potion restored Magical points by 50!
As long as he had a lot of this, He didn't really need to worry much about Magical energy. If Grayfia willed it, He might be able to collect potions that Sirzechs had saved over time.
But now was not the time to think about it.
'GOBLIN'
There were about 12 of these names and they were all Orange, A small grin tugged on Azaroth's face as he threw the bottle to the ground, breaking it in the process.
"This is what I call a Dungeon," Azaroth said.
The combat experience that he was getting from Grayfia was nothing compared to these, He needed to level up and grow even stronger.
