"CRAAACK!"

  The impact caused the scales I struck splinter and the ribs underh that yer of skin to break and bow inwards puncturing the monsters lung causing it to spit out blood as the lung filled with the stuff before it got expelled as the beast tried to breath. My fmes were ravenously scorg the beast as well as the more vulnerable parts like the wings leather and the eyes were ed greedily.

  "RAAH!"

  The moried to roar but it was watery and patheti the blood in it's lung and throat. In a desperate bid to survive the mohrashed about which I leapt up to avoid as well as line up my attack. Twisting midair I brought down the blunt end of my on onto the spine of the beast using my full strength and gravity this time.

  "CH!"

  The scales shattered but the spine didn't break though the monster colpsed from the force. I was a little disappoi how easy this was so far but I admit that might just be because I actually was higher up the food than it was. Sure we could both be sidered level two but the guild based this monsters power off a normal level two with B rank stats across the board when they had leveled up.-

  paring such a being to myself was ughable to say the least since I had leveled up to two with truly maxed stats across the board. pared to the seven hundred or so of B rank stats I was nearly three times higher up than that upon leveling up. To the three watg this pathetic dispy on the infant dragons part they likely thought i was level three or even higher when we were actually the same level.-

  By the time the monster finally had enough bullying and died I retty sure they had given up any desire to csh with me over the loot. In fact when I removed the magic stone from the corpse they watched on and didn't say anything even after the rge amount of smoke flowed right into me through my tattoos. As far as drops went I got a fang and about a dozen scales that were intad another dozen not so intact, well and the magic stohat was the size of a ut.-

  "Cp cp cp"

  The sound of hands meeting rang out slightly in the distance beyond where I could see thanks to the dense mist of the twelfth floor. Moments ter a party of five men with jeering faces and greedy looks walked out of the mist to where I could see them. I frowned when I saw their souls that shown with sinful nature and many sied to greed, lust and violence. I'd be an idiot if i didn't realize that they were here to either rob or murder me if not both.

  "That was a wonderful show you just put on but you must be dreadfully tired after using so much magic right? Why not just leave that bag here with us to hold onto and take a nice long nap?" the guy clearly leading the group said with a not very friendly smile.

  I couldn't help ughing at this though as I realized that this group of robbers thought those fmes were from me using magic. If that were actually true I might have been worried but the thing is those fmes were from yesterday when I made that grenade. In other words I was sitting at a full tank of energy right now and they thought i was uo use the fmes against them.

  "Looks like we have an arrogant one fels lets take care of the leftovers before we teach him the real way of things." the leader guy said cruelly as the smile fell from his face.

  The party swarmed towards the three who were here earlier that raised their ons fearfully to fight off the enemies. I smirked coldly from my position though and with a wave of my hands sent out hell fire in a wide arc to encircled all of us in a ring of fire.

  "Impossible! You should be near mind zero after using so much magic!" The leader excimed in horror.

  "Oh you would certainly be correct if it wasn't for the fact THOSE fmes were from a magic item and not me. You lot have three options now, first you surrender quietly and I drag you all to the guild. Sed you try to flee and all die in agony as my fmes devour you. Finally you all try and fight me at which case I'll kill all but one of you. The st oill gets dragged to the guild though. Oh wait silly me I fot about the fourth option, you kill yourselves before I catch you. Like tag but for keeps." I said with a casual smile.

  "I refuse to believe you take on all of us at o him gu- URK!" The leader went to say only to be cut off as one of his party put a bde through his chest, killing him.

  I raised an eyebrow at this in surprise before they person who stabbed him which was a slimy looking human man spoke.

  "Bastard was about to get all of us killed. Those fmes made even an infant dragon helpless and you think fighting against the guy who summon more is a good idea? Die on your own but I'll take the guild over death any day!" he said spitting oill warm corpse.

  "Daamn~ Welp Rip that guy, that was cold as shit man. Still I feel your siy so if you just toss your ons over that nice wall of fire there and walk over to me slowly with your hands where I see them at all time you'll live past today. Try anything funny and I'll reduce you to ashes before you blink though." I said calmly.-

  All four of the remaining robbers did as I said and tossed their ons over the wall of fire fling as the fmes fred up and started ing them. When they arrived close enough i had them y down on their stomachs with their hands behind their backs. One of them tried to reach for a hidden on at that point, likely a throwing dagger, and paid the price with their life. Oddly i didn't feel anything after killing a person for the first time and I couldn't help but wonder if this was a side effey being more closely iwined with cursed energy.-

  Sure I had grown desensitized to killing monsters but a person was a whole other sort of thing as far as I am ed. I thought that I'd feel sick or something but my emotions didn't waiver even a little which was disturbing the st three rot tied up with some of the rope I always carried oer I searched them for held out ons.
