[LEVEL UP]

[Player: Yuki Kaito]

[Level 11: 99000/300000]

As Yuki continued to walk back to where Kostas' body was before he took the impact from the explosion, many lines of white light began to gather near the ceiling of the stage where Yuki stood-confirming the defeat of Kostas. Once they finished gathering the white light began to disappear and the object became more clear. Once it fell in front of Yuki's feet, he could look at his reward properly. It was a grey steel glove like object with extending golden linings across the ends and edges. 

Yuki double tapped on the glove like object to pull out its information chart. 

[Item drop: Demon Gauntlet]

[Rank: E]

[Attack: 0]

[Description: Power: Decorative item. The ruler of the underworld chooses to create multiple obstacles for those who wish to reach him. Each one being more difficult than the previous one. His favorite creation has to be the commander of the flames. The one creature that isn't one sided and doesn't have motivation of its own. It is much like a robot in the sense that it only does what it is told. It's command was to defeat anyone with minimal effort exerted which is why it chooses not to move unless it is told to do so. It's flame powers were a gift bestowed upon it by its maker-Hades. All it knows is gratitude and loyalty, however it only shows those emotions to the ruler of the underworld alone. To anyone else, it is quiet and strict with its judgement. The commander of the flames is indeed the best servant to have.]

"More and more boring stuff. I miss the stories on the items from the previous dungeon. They were at least horrifying to think about. Isn't this place supposed to be the underworld.. where the most evil creatures are punished? It seems too happy to be like that," said Yuki. 

"At least I leveled up though," Yuki sighed. 

[Open inventory]

Yuki placed the "Demon Gauntlet" into his inventory as he didn't see much use for it. 

"Seriously though, a decorative item? I hate this. So much work and all I get is a useless prize. Well... not technically. Each monster  We defeat becomes a part of my collection. At least I'll have Kostas battle for me in future battles," Yuki said.

Unlike the previous times, Yuki didn't walk towards the gateway. Instead, Yuki fell on his back in a star-shaped position. 

"How much longer do I have to keep doing this? It would at least be fun if I had other people around me to help me every once in a while, or at least to even talk to me. This is just a boring hell. No, literally, this is a boring hell," Yuki laughed a little at the connection he made. 

"I guess being alone isn't that bad either. There's no one to argue with or fight with because of loot sharing. You also don't have to worry about people betraying you for no reason," Yuki said in an irritated tone as he thought about Jobon, Rui and Katsumi.

"I mean seriously, how could they just betray me and even try to have me imprisoned using the power I allowed them to gain? They left me just for a little extra cash, well too bad for them, if they stayed with me, the dungeon loot I've gained could've been theirs as well," Yuki said in a louder voice. 

"On top of that, they could've reached much higher levels with me around to guide them. They lost all of that just for a few silver," Yuki yelled into the stage. 

"It sounds like I'm more mad about this than they are. I should've learned my lesson from last time. Friendships are only temporary for me, the world will never allow me to have happiness through friendship. Well, if I can't have friendship I'll just have to be happy with gaining power," Yuki said as he jumped up from the ground and landed on his feet. 

Yuki now finally began to walk towards the gateway to the 9th stage of the dungeon. Yuki had done this so many times that he began to go through the dungeon subconsciously without any fears. Looking back at his previous self which contemplated going past the gateway and wanted to achieve a simple life in the new world, Yuki had truly changed. Whether it be for better or worse only time would tell. 

Outside the small hill which carried the dungeon entrance gate was the king from the 8th stage of the first which Yuki had cleared. He sat on an oak log-awaiting the return of his king so he could deliver the supplies which he was tasked with buying for Yuki. 

As for the new Meurig which Yuki had summoned using the power of "King's Crown" after he allowed the first Meurig to enjoy a peaceful life, he was still busy in the first dungeon. Yuki had sent him there to gain exp so he could level up and be a helpful ally to him. Yuki had simply done this out of respect for his only true shadow friend. Based on strength alone, the lich from the 10th stage of the first dungeon would have been much more optimal to send out to grind as he would have more strength and more experience in battles. Along with the various spells which he would unlock once more after he leveled up. 

Although all those points were factual, the new Meurig planned to not disappoint his king. That was the shared goal that was implanted into all the monsters Yuki summoned however Meaurig was the only one as of that current moment to be allowed to take the time to grow himself and exceed the expectations Yuki had set for him. He would prove that by his strong resolve which he was currently showing in the heated battle against the lich of the 10th stage. While in the first dungeon of the new world, Meurig had gone into one battle after another without taking a break. He didn't need sleep but just like any living thing he needed rest so he could recover his health. 

Even though that was true, the new Meurig chose to ignore that and go on a constant streak of battles.
