The Dreamer's POV

[00 Months: 02 Days: 00 Hours]

The sun had just begun to rise, casting a gentle golden glow over the world. The air was crisp and cool, carrying the scent of dew and earth as I ventured forth toward the chasm that lay before me.

It was an eerie beauty that surrounded the entrance, a stark contrast to the darkness that awaited within.

The chasm, the dreaded doorway to the Dungeon of Carnage, stood wide open, beckoning like a maw ready to swallow the unwary.

A shiver of excitement ran down my spine as I recognized the gaping maw for what it truly was.

"The Dungeon of Carnage..."

According to the Information I bought, it was said to be a place of terror and brutality, home to Demons whose savagery exceeded that of wild beasts.

I had to assume they would be far different from the Stone Golems I faced in my previous Dungeon expedition.

"It's perfect."

Dressed in my long, dark cloak that billowed with every step I took, I looked the part of an adventurer of darkness and stealth.

My black shirt and trousers blended seamlessly with the shadows, and my face was hidden beneath the hood, concealing my identity from those who might recognize me.

But I felt no fear as I approached the chasm; rather, a sense of anticipation surged within me.

Stepping closer, I could feel the pleasant coolness that radiated from the depths of the chasm. It was like a gentle caress against my skin, oddly comforting considering the horrors that awaited within.

But I had no intention of turning back.

... Not while rewards lay in store for me within.

As I crossed the threshold, my senses were immediately assaulted. The air seemed to thicken, and a faint scent of sulfur lingered in the atmosphere. The darkness enveloped me, pressing in from all sides, but I was undeterred.

My eyes adjusted to the lack of light, and in the distance, I saw movement.

[SYSTEM WARNING]

<You Have Encountered A Group Of Demons>

"Kek! Go figure." I grinned brazenly, staring right at the monstrosities that manifested not too far from me.

"GRRRRRRRRRR..."

A dozen Demons appeared before me, their forms reminiscent of wild beasts, with hulking bodies, sharp claws, and teeth that gleamed like daggers.

They growled and snarled, their eyes fixated on me with a bloodthirsty hunger.

But rather than fear, I felt exhilaration.

With a sly grin on my face, I taunted them, beckoning them to come closer. My voice echoed through the dungeon, filled with a confidence that bordered on arrogance.

"I want to see it... how long you'll last against me!"

The Demons obliged, charging towards me with a relentless fury. Their movements were swift and agile, and I could see the fire in their eyes.

But I was prepared for this, for the carnage that lay ahead.

~WHOOOOSSSHHH!!!~

In a flash, multiple glowing orbs manifested from my position, all charging toward the group that sought to devour me.

Before the creatures could even react, the spheres speedily crushed their bones and tore through their bodies. One after the other, in a swift symphony, they were all reached.

The Demons were left yelping in pain only for about a second as their blood splattered around, finally meeting their end.

I walked forward, undeterred by the sight of gore or the overpowering smell of blood that greeted me.

"This truly is a Dungeon Of Carnage." A wry smile formed on my face as I stared at the vanishing corpses beneath me, while also paying close heed to the many other enemies that slowly closed in on me.

This place wasn't lacking in threats, and my senses could pick up a grave number of opponents just ahead.

It truly was an overwhelming place to be.

'But that's what makes this so exciting!' Suppressing my grin, I decided to prepare for the next round.

"Summon: Mr. Stone."

A towering figure made of solid rock materialized before me, its massive frame imposing and formidable.

Mr. Stone was the name I gave to the Stone Golem Boss I recently made my minion. It consumed a lot of Energy to use <Fallen Foe> on it, but my investments paid off greatly.

"You should be enough. Kill them all." With a subtle nod, I directed Mr. Stone to charge forward, leading the assault against the remaining Demons.

"ROOOAAAARRR!"

The ground trembled beneath its colossal footsteps as it tore through the horde, its stone fists crushing and shattering anything that dared to stand in its path.

~BOOOOOMMMM!!!~

I watched from a safe distance, a smile playing on my lips as I marveled at the chaos unfolding before me.

The Demons, once ferocious and bloodthirsty, now found themselves helpless against the wrath of Mr. Stone.

Their claws and teeth were nothing more than futile attempts to harm the impenetrable Golem. With each swing of its massive arms, the Demons were sent flying, their bodies crushed or torn apart.

Glee danced in my eyes as I witnessed their demise. The thrill of the battle coursed through my veins, amplified by the knowledge that I stood untouched, untouchable.

"Oh, no you don't..." The few Demons who managed to evade the Golem's devastating strikes and attempted to reach me were met with a swift and merciless end.

Five orbs, floating gracefully around me, pulsated with dense energy. They hummed with power, each rotating at a terrifying rate.

As the Demons closed in on me, the orbs spun faster, releasing bursts of their respective energy as they attacked without any prejudice.

The interlopers were reduced to lumps of meat and blood before quickly turning to dust.

Advancing through the Dungeon in this manner, I left a trail of destruction in my wake. The Demons, once considered the embodiment of terror, were now nothing more than pitiful creatures futilely attempting to challenge my might.

"Was it always this easy...?" I found myself cringing at my past efforts, when I struggled like an idiot when I could have simply resorted to this.

'In a way... I'm grateful to you, Lucy.'

Finally, my journey through the Dungeon brought me to a grand double door that loomed before me.

The Boss Room.

The air crackled with an electric tension, and a sense of anticipation filled my being.

"This shouldn't take too long." I whispered, my lips cracking a smile as I took a resolute step forward, my gaze solely on the obstacle before me.

No fear or hesitation crept into my heart. On the contrary, I felt a tinge of elation as I took yet another step.

I wanted to face the monster on the other side.

I wanted to fight!

After all...

"... I'm a little stronger now."
