Location: Unknown

Monsters: Unknown

Difficulty: Hard]

A notification appeared in front of Ryan as he stepped through the portal and his eyes scanned through the text before a grin bloomed on his face.

’Hmm, the difficulty level is quite high, but I am not surprised. After all, it’s an S-class dungeon, and it is my first time entering a dungeon that is this dangerous.’

He thought and took a step forward, but then suddenly, the ground below his feet began to tremble.

"W-what is happening?" Ryan frowned, and his expression got serious, while a small crack formed on the floor, before a red-colored liquid sprayed out of it.

The blood-like substance was slowly gathering in front of Ryan who was a little stunned by the sight.

"Blood?"

He said and took a step back, his eyes were fixed on the red liquid which was slowly taking the shape of words.

"Is this..."

A moment later, the blood became solid, and the sentences that were written in bold, red color, were displayed in front of Ryan.

Welcome to Blood Dungeon

First Floor Requirement: Survive 7 days to move on to 2nd floor

Time Remaining: 7 Days

Good luck Surviving!

"Survive seven days?" Ryan read the words and his brows furrowed, while the sentence disappeared a few seconds later, leaving him alone.

"Seems like the first floor is a survival quest."

He commented and after thinking about it for a while, he opened his mouth and let out a single word, "System,"

Ding!

[Starting the countdown: 6 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes, and 49 seconds.]

"Good, now, let’s go."

He spoke out and began to walk toward the uncertain path hidden in the green trees.

As he walked, he stretched his hand and took the map that Luna had given him, then, he began to read it.

’Hmm, so this is the place where the gate to the 2nd floor will appear after seven days. It is quite far away, and it would take at least 3 days to reach the place.’

He calculated and the corner of his mouth rose as he looked around.

The forest was filled with greenery and the air was very fresh.

However, there was no sound of the birds, any animals, or even rustling leaves, which was quite odd.

’The map says that this place is a safe zone, so, I think I should walk a bit farther.’

The guy thought and his legs moved again, and a moment later, according to the map, he was now out of the safe zone.

Yet, there was not a single monster.

The place was calm and peaceful.

However, Ryan’s expression got serious, and his senses sharpened as his eyes began to scan the surroundings.

He was looking for a monster, and the longer he didn’t see one, the more his mind became alert.

’Is it also like the previous dungeon I was in, where the monsters are actually hidden, and you have to do something to make them appear?’

Ryan thought and his expression changed before a sigh left his mouth as his hand reached for the bracelet that was wrapped around his wrist.

’First, let’s take this thing off,’

The next moment, his fingers wrapped around the bracelet, and with a swift motion, the thing was pulled.

Ding!

[Appearance Alter Bracelet has been taken off. The changes in the appearance are canceled. The user will now get the original appearance back.]

This notification was displayed and as soon as it did, Ryan’s black hair began to change its color, and his eyes which were a mixture of green and blue also reversed back to their original color.

His appearance was changing, and a few seconds later, his hair had turned brown and his eyes had become as dark as a void before his facial appearance completely reversed back.

Now, Ryan was gone and Nellas was back.

And the reason he had removed the artifact, was not because he wanted to, instead, he had to do it because the bracelet had a time limit, and it needed some time to charge up again.

If it wasn’t taken off when the time was up, the artifact would lose its power and it would become useless forever.

And that can’t happen.

Because he still needed it.

And the reason for that is quite obvious.

"Ah~ now I feel much better,"

The man let out a sigh of relief, and his expression relaxed as he looked at the bracelet that was in his hand before it began to scatter piece by piece until it completely vanished into thin air.

’This was a useful thing, but I think I won’t be using it again anytime soon.’

Now, being in this S-class dungeon, it was clear that it would take him at least 15-17 days, or even more, to complete it, which meant, he wouldn’t be seeing Ember for a while.

Therefore, he decided not to use the bracelet, and instead, just stay the way he was.

’I feel bad about being dead for Ember. But, it was needed. Since one can’t become a hero if he/she is weak at heart and thinks about others’ well-being before themselves.

No, one has to be selfish and self-centered if one wants to survive in this hellish world.

I did the right thing.

But, that doesn’t mean I will not feel bad.’

Nellas was a bit conflicted, but he didn’t let it affect his mood, and after thinking about the future, he took a deep breath, before raising his head and looking ahead.

The dungeon name ’Blood Dungeon’ suggests something like blood-related monsters or something along those lines.

But, Nellas couldn’t pinpoint exactly what it meant.

Even the map given by Luna didn’t tell anything about when the monsters would show up.

Which was weird, and the only thing the map showed was a route, some details about monsters that were on all six floors except the seventh, and a little information about the dungeon.

’Hmm, Blood Dungeon, blood... Blood... Wait. Blood? No way.’

A thought struck his mind and his eyes widened a bit.

’Don’t tell me... They will only come out if they smell some blood. That means they will only appear when I will bleed, and that will also mean...’

The thought that entered his mind was terrifying, and the guy couldn’t help but curse.

’Shit! That’s why it is called Blood Dungeon. I should have known.’
