"There are lesser slimes now further into the dungeon but that doesn't mean they are totally gone after they have all swarmed us all like that. Still much better compared to swarming since we can properly move now without being cornered with the slime's corrosive liquids," Akira sighed as he flicks away the excess slime goo off his shield.
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm "Yeah. It's a bit tiresome indeed. But are all Abyss Dungeons like this before? I don't think I have experienced any sort of similar nature in the past. We surely have cleared multiple Abyss Dungeons before so there's no way we will be mistaken," Rika also noticed the changes.
"I think so too as well. I could understand the increase of the enemies but the amount of enemies we have been encountering so far is just exceeding far more than what I thought this dungeon can contain. The number of we have killed slimes made me think we have already found the habitat of slimes," Riko also flicks off the slime goo on her staff and her clothes too.
"So I was not the only one who noticed their abnormal increase huh?" my words immediately caused them to ask me about it.
"It wasn't just our imagination about the increase?"
"Yep. The number is definitely higher than the estimate I have. I have cleared this Abyss Dungeon a few times in the past so I know how many slimes and other monsters are usually present on average every time I enter a dungeon. But today, the number clearly surpassed the average amount, and it made me totally surprised as welL," I told everyone and even though I didn't clear this dungeon before in this current lifetime, I did indeed clear this dungeon multiple times in the other timeline, so it's still technically not a lie that I cleared this place.
We continue to push forward and find a few more slimes. Just like before, we have killed the slimes before they can be much of a problem. And as we continue to move, we soon found one Mimic present in the area.
"Guys, don't approach the chest. That was a mimic," I warned everyone before they rush themselves toward the trap.
"Eh? How did you know?" Riko frowned. It seems she hasn't noticed the difference.
"Look. That chest is unusually big and look at that red appendage that looks like a cloth hanging out on the chest opening part, that's clearly its tongue. Besides, I saw it move a bit earlier before we got near. That's definitely a mimic."
"Wah, what a cunning guy," Riko shook her head before she started casting [Fireball] and immediately fired off multiple of them in the process straight to the Mimic.
The moment the [Fireball] hits the mimic pretending to be a treasure chest, the disguise was off and the mimic started to move.
"Get ready! Riko, get ready to blast this thing to pieces!"
"Of course!"
And all of us started to attack the Mimic. Because a mimic is tougher than average, it took us a few more hits before the mimic is gone. But the moment it died, everyone including me started glowing up thrice, showing that we have leveled up to level 15 in the process.
"Wow, holy crap. We just leveled up to level 15 all of a sudden! Are the experience gained on killing slimes increased this much?" Rika was surprised as well.
"Not only that, look, the items dropped from the Mimic's corpse are also quite a treat as well! Look at this stuff and money! It's a pretty loaded f*cker!" Riko then showed the amount of good stuff the monster dropped including one of the Magician Robes that has some decent good stats.
Sora examined the robe to see if it was good enough for her but after seeing the stats, she sighed and walked away in disappointment.
"It's a good robe, but its stats are not that noteworthy compared to the robe we are currently wearing already," Sora sighed.
"Yeah, I know that, But this thing has some extra stats. Selling this to the market will net us a good amount of coins as well. It might not be useful for us in terms of combat-related stuff but the amount of good stuff we can get if they keep dropping stuff like this. We will be loaded enough once we go back to the Capital City and retrieve our stuff later on," Riko grinned.
"Wow, seriously, Riko? We don't really need that much stuff in the end, as we have already stored up all our money in the mansion. There's no need for that much excess of money," I tried to keep Riko cool but Riko just grinned and started laughing.
"Heh, you are naive Manato. Money makes us motivated to go on. So this thing is nothing much. Besides, we should keep earning money and not rely on our old money stash. The more money we have, the better now that we are living here in this world."
My mother and father also gave their thumbs up as well, agreeing with Riko's words.
"Alright, fine. You guys should have it I guess. Anyways, don't be too greedy alright?"
We continue to move when the Versatile Weapon suddenly gave me another sudden surge of power. Then, the shadow dragon started speaking to me in my mind once more.
"Yo, owner. The weapon of the sin [Sloth] is fully digested now. Check out my stats, you will like the increase so much."
Compared to the stats and panel announcements, I was surprised that the Shadow Dragon is the one who started interacting with me, revealing the digested food was finally done.
I thought the weapon wouldn't be done digesting that weapon just yet, but it seems the metabolism of this guy has increased for the weapon to digest so fast.

[Further special skills are not yet discovered, please let the weapon devour a few weapons with abilities]
Note: A weapon forged by an unknown material from an unknown civilization. Can devour and change form depending on the wielder's will. Said to be a weapon made for the gods that hold tremendous power but it ends up in the hands of the mortal.
Second Note: Because it has devoured and digested a weapon that belonged to the Seven Deadly Sins, the Versatile Weapon can now be considered to be part of the Seven Deadly Sins' weapon series. The sleeping beast of the weapon has now partially awakened.
Third Note: After devouring and imprinting itself from the blood of the Pendragon, the weapon has partially unlocked the sealed powers hiding deep beneath.
Fourth Note: Devouring another weapon that belonged to the Seven Deadly Sins increased its power. The Sleeping Beast is getting developed and it's already recovering a partial amount of its powers.
Fifth Note: Requirements not met. Will reveal it once the requirements are fulfilled.
Special Note: After the restrictions have been lifted, its true power has been slowly unleashed. Even the creature sleeping inside is starting to grow stronger as well. No one knows whether it is a bad thing or a good thing. One thing is for sure, the weapon is getting stronger before we know it.
Restriction: Cannot be dropped, cannot be sold, cannot be traded. Bound to the Owner
Bound: Manato Tsukasa
Durability: Null
-------------------------------
My eyes went wide. The name that this weapon should be bound with has changed. If I remember it correctly, it should be bound to my Nexus character, Bladeheart. But now, the name has changed and it is now bound to my own name.
"[But of course, you are still the rightful owner, so naturally, I will update it as well. Bladeheart and you, Manato are the same person after all.]" the shadow dragon spoke as he proudly explained the change.
It's a minor change but that only made it clear, that this weapon will never go away from me even if I changed characters. It's mine and mine alone.
