Chapter 100: I am not human anymore.
As we entered the 18th floor, Lili ran and spun around, admiring the beauty of the place. I gave a sincere smile seeing her act like that. 'This is the first time she's come to this place, so I'm not surprised she's acting like this.'
I continued to watch her as we moved toward the town of Rivira. Along the way, we met some adventurers. And because of this, Lili came to my side.
She didn't trust the other adventurers very much. She has robbed many adventurers inside the dungeon, so it makes sense.
"Don't worry. No one will do anything against you as long as I'm here." I stroked her head, and we walked into town. After we entered, I went to the same inn I used last time.
As soon as I got a room, I went up with Lili, and we both tried out the bed. The size was good enough. We could sleep together if we were going to stay here for a long time.
But I was only willing to stay here for a short time. I would go to the 20th floor and then leave the dungeon. It would only take a couple of hours, so it wasn't necessary to sleep here. But I took the room in case something unexpected happened, and we needed to stay here.
"What did you think of Rivira? It's nice, isn't it?" Lying together with Lili on the bed, I asked.
"Yes, it's very nice."
"When I first came here, I was also quite euphoric about the view. It's still unbelievable that something like this exists inside the dungeon. It even seems like another world."
"Yes."
"So, what do you want to do now? When I first came here, I explored Rivira a bit. Do you want to do the same, or do you think we should move on to the 19th floor?"
"I'll do whatever you want."
"Hmmm..." Lili looked a little tired after going through all the floors. It's okay that I carried her a few floors, but she still got tired. Let's rest a bit before we continue.
So I decided to have a picnic. Lili seemed quite excited about the idea.
We carried a bag and walked through Rivira until we found the perfect spot for the picnic. We sat together and ate some sandwiches while looking up at the roof of Rivira.
It was amazing.
I also looked around to see if I could find the same woman I found when I first came here. But I didn't find her. 'I didn't find her once in the city either. It even looks like that girl was a ghost.'
With my head resting on Lili's lap, I sighed and sat beside her.
"What's wrong?" She asked.
"It's nothing. I was thinking about some things." I couldn't tell her I was thinking about another woman in this situation.
"I see. Are you already wanting to go to the 19th floor?"
"Have you had enough rest?"
"I'm ready to go whenever you want." She gave a smile. I could tell she wasn't forcing herself and was fine. Because of this, I decided to go to the 19th floor. But first, I wanted to refill our water.
We had food, but the water was almost finished.
So we returned to the city and filled our bottles with drinking water before moving on. Not only us, but we met other adventurers going to the 19th floor.
Honestly, they looked like bandits, so I preferred not to talk to them. Not that I was afraid, but these guys are always annoying, and I am sure I would not be able to deal with them without getting into a fight.
####
As soon as we entered the 19th floor, I immediately noticed the difference from the previous floors. A giant labyrinth with walls, floor, and ceiling made of wood, it was as if we were inside a tree.
It was a vast labyrinth.
On the ground, moss gave off a blue light that helped us see where we were going. Lili came up to me and hugged me, afraid that some monster would suddenly appear and try to attack us.
The monsters on these floors were varied but mainly were insect monsters. I am trying to remember all their names and appearance precisely. 'I think when I meet them, I will remember.'
"Lili, don't worry. With my current strength, the monsters on this floor won't be able to hurt us. The other adventurers have moved far enough away, so we can move on now." I said excitedly.
"Right. But stay by my side." Lili held my hand. It would be a little difficult to fight with her holding my hand, but I still didn't mind. Worst case scenario, I'd grab her and run away.
So we started to walk and explore the extensive labyrinth.
With my map open, I could view the whole labyrinth. It was bigger than I expected. It would be impossible to explore it all. Fortunately, the map showed the passage to the 20th floor.
I thought I would have to evolve the map to see it, but that is not the case.
And after another few minutes, my first enemy appeared. In my mind, I tried to remember its name.
The name of this monster is Bugbear. A bear-like monster with high agility and a very powerful defense. But I was faster, and I was sure my attacks would be able to hurt it, so I didn't worry.
"Lili, stay behind me." After Lili went behind, I used magic and tried to hit the monster, who masterfully avoided my ice magic and moved closer. But I could follow it with my eyes.
With a swing of my sword and a clean cut, I tore off the monster's head, and an item fell to the ground.
"Yes, I can kill these monsters easily," I said excitedly. Lili then picked up the item, and we moved on.
From there, we kept moving forward as I killed several different monsters, but without any difficulty. My status was undoubtedly no longer human. I was way over the limit.
This must be why Hestia was so freaked out when she upgraded my falna last time.
