Who's stronger

[Obtained 'Berserker claw blade' from dungeon boss]

[Obtained 'Berserker blood' x3 from dungeon boss]

[The player will be returned to their own world]

'Ahhh... my back hurts'. As Quinn was getting up, the boss room he was in broke into pieces like glass shattering.

'I leveled up like four time right?' he thought, 'That's crazy! If the boss wasn't blind, then I would've died instantly. That guy was fucking crazy... .'

Now lay on his small room's floor, Quinn looked at the stats of his new dagger:

———

'Berserker claw blade'

Special effect: Blood drain(Option 1)

"Blood drain and Paralysing fear... . It's my first time seeing a weapon with special effects," he said, "My gauntlets are pretty roughed up too..."

[Hidden quest: Clear the instant Dungeon(Completed)]

[Shadow blade] Lvl 1

Summon a blade from the ground or any other surface. Although a shadow, it is very sharp and sturdy. When the level is high enough the user can manipulate the blade onto their body.

Cost- Depends on what purpose the user uses this skill for.

"An offensive shadow skill..." Quinn got up from the floor, "Can't wait to try this one out".

'There's still plenty of time till cerfew,' he thought as he put his weapons in his shadow, 'I'll go to the hunters association and evaluated as a hunter I guess... . But, first, I gotta take a shower and change my clothes; these ones are fucked.'

***

As Quinn left his room, he saw Luna and Sen together walking towards him. 'Haaah... why is she still here-?' he thought. They both spotted Quinn too, so they started walking towards him faster.

"Yo! Where are you off too?" Sen waved his hand towards him, "I'm going to the hunters association to get evaluated as-".

"Then I'll get my licence too," Luna interrupted, "I was getting bored too since you wouldn't come out of your room to train. But your friend, Sen here, isn't weak either".

"You fought with Sen? how did it go?" Quinn asked Luna curious about how strong Sen was.

"Heh, I was no match!" she responded. 'Why do you sound so proud...?' Quinn sighed internally. "That so?"

"I don't think you should go there right now" said Sen finally, "There will be a Planet portal outing the day after tomorrow. Plus, you should already know how tedious the process of getting evaluated is... ."

"Eh? I thought they were going to do a dungeon one...?"

"Well, you see, there have been incidents of Dungeons which are supposed to be a low ranking Dungeon being higher ranking ones. Everyone's sceptical of the Dungeon Portals nowadays.... The magical energy sensing device needs a rework, it seems. You should read the news; scientists are trying to corelate quantum fluctuations with the Portals..." Sen replied.

"Fine, fine. I'll do what you say and not go to the association" Quinn said, not bothering to respond to the other information, "But I have a favour to ask...".

"What is it?"

"Spar with me" Quinn said with a wide grin on his face. "Hahahahahaha! So you're just like her then?"

'No, I'm not a battle junkie.'

"Well, whatever, let's go!" Sen shouted as he marched towards the weapons training hall, clearly happy.

***

In the grand but dull white room, Sen and Quinn were several metres apart from each other and Luna was outside of the ring overseeing the spar.

"It's good to see we're getting along, hmm?" Sen said. "Whatever you say... I just want to know how strong you and I are. You defeated Luna, so you ought to be a pretty strong opponent."

"Let's get started then," Luna said as she was about to announce the start of the match until she was interrupted...

"So it was you guys who came in," all three of them heard a voice from behind them. "Sparring with each other, are we? Don't mind me, I'm just here to watch," said their magic weapons class teacher, Aaron.

"I suppose we should tell each other our abilities?" Quinn proposed. 'Oh, shit... Luna still thinks that I don't have an Ability. Fuck, what a pain in the ass... .'

"It's fine. Let's leave that a surprise," Sen replied.

"Fine by me."

"Then, I'll be the referee," Aaron said, "Surrender if it gets too dangerous or if you cannot fight on."

"3...2...1... BEGIN!" Aaron's voice echoed throughout the hall. As they heard the call, Quinn kicked off from the ground; Sen began to continually cut his hand with a small knife he had drawn from under his left hand's sleeve.

Quinn, who was about to use his [Shadow Blade], was, of course, surprised, 'Is it a Blood related ability? Blood manipulation?! Transformation?!' he began to question, 'Either way... his ability seems dangerous.'

As the blood started showering out, it slowly metamorphosed into small balls that looked like they were made of metal. Right after, Sen flicked his finger and all of the droplets were shot towards Quinn.

'They are quick indeed, but not as quick as the Lycan! I can block them easily.'

[Shadow Blade]

A big purple-black curved blade arose from the ground, in front of Quinn as he swung his hand upwards.

All of the drops that touched the blade were shattered, one could tell that the blade was very sharp just by looking at it, and just the slightest touch could tear apart your muscles like butter.

"Darkness ability?! And an offensive one at that..." Sen exclaimed surprised.

"And your ability is Transformation, if I'm right," Quinn said. "Hmmm, Close, but not quite. I can solidify blood into metal and manipulate it as I wish. But, it isn't Transformation," Sen replied.

***

Barely 5 minutes later...

Sen was looking pale and was panting while Quinn rushed at him and used [Shadow Blade] again.

Pierce

"Hahaha! Finally," Quinn laughed. Right as Quinn was feeling satisfied with the fact that victory was within reach, the Shadow Blade broke.

"Did you forget what I said?" Sen smiled as his mouth filled with blood, "That I can solidify blood into metal?!"
