Fastest Level Up! - Chapter 37

The next day, I was back in Kenzaki Dungeon again.

My objective here was obviously to raise my level by repeatedly challenging Kenzaki Dungeon at a high-speed. But before that, there was something I must decide. It was whether I should use the weapon I obtained yesterday, Nameless Sword or not.

Because, although the Nameless Sword was perfect if I only looked at its ability, the recommended level to use it was level 1000 and I have not reached that level yet.

Previously, I only used Nameless Sword for a moment when defeating the Nameless Knight. That’s why it’s still unclear whether I could use it as my main weapon or not. For that reason, I chanted [Transfer Within Dungeon] to enter Kenzaki Dungeon with the Nameless Sword in my hand in order to actually try it.

Two and a half hours after I started capturing Kenzaki Dungeon while defeating monsters such as Orcs, Horned Rabbits, and Red Boars as per usual, I arrived on the 15th floor. Then, I sat down in a place where there were no monsters around to check my status screen which showed that my HP had decreased from 6250 to 5880..

“Hmm, as expected I still suffered some damage despite how hard I tried huh. Well, my attack power was overwhelmingly increased when I used this sword though. So, it has its merits and demerits.”

For now, I was able to use the Nameless Sword by holding it with both of my hands. And because my attack power was increased, I was able to cut the monsters into half with just one blow. However, my movements have slowed down a little in exchange.

“I didn’t really feel any difficulty when I used this sword to fight the Nameless Knight, but…it might be because the enemy’s level was higher than me at that time so I could handle the sword normally thanks to the effect of Nameless Sword which raised my status.”

On the other hand, the level of monsters that I fought today was lower than mine. That’s why, not only has my status not risen, most likely I also had the handicap of using a weapon when I have not reached the level recommended to use it yet.

Other than that, it might be also because the usual speed-oriented fighting method has become difficult to execute due to the change of weapon from a dagger to a longsword.

This means the conclusion I reached after considering those reasons I mentioned before was, although the Nameless Sword has a very high potential, it was difficult for me to display all its power for now.

“It can’t be helped, I guess I should go back to the surface and buy a new dagger.”

One of the few advantages of not possessing the [Sword Mastery] skill was that I didn’t need to stick to a particular type of weapon. Whether it was a dagger or a longsword, it was possible to just use what was appropriate

Like that, after deciding my future plan, I returned to the surface by walking out from the inside of the dungeon.

Although I think I can beat the High Orc with this equipment, it’s not a laughing matter if another extra boss appeared and I ended up having to fight it. Because when challenging a dungeon boss, of course, I wanted to be in perfect condition.

Then after returning to the surface in less than two hours, I promptly headed to the store that sells weapons for adventurers.

Since Kenzaki Dungeon was located near the center of the city, I was able to arrive at the store by walking for 10 minutes. I immediately went to the place where daggers were lined up.

“Well, which one should I choose…”

I looked at every dagger that seemed easy to use while using [Appraisal] just in case.

“As expected those that have increased attack power as an effect and those with special abilities were expensive. I am certainly attracted to those daggers but the me right now don’t really need them that much…Ah!”

In the middle of looking at the lined up daggers, I found something that piqued my interest. Hence, I asked the clerk to take it out after showing my adventurer card to prove that I have the adventurer qualification.

From the shape of the dagger to the grip, this dagger felt very similar to the Yumemi Dagger that I used before.

_____________

[Kirikuji Dagger]

・Reward given by defeating the dungeon boss of Kirikuji Dungeon solo with only a dagger.

・Recommended level to use: level 600

・Attack Power +400

_____________

“Yep, although it doesn’t have a special ability, the performance is good and there is no problem with the recommended level to use. Let’s choose this one. Well, the most important thing, the price is…9-900k yen, huh…”

For a moment, I was frightened by the high number of the price which is 900k. However, I was prepared for this from the start. It was a well-known fact that adventurers’ weapons were quite expensive after all. Even those weapons that were widely used in C-rank dungeons cost hundreds of thousands of yen at the very least.

That’s why I will just group this as a necessary expense. Because there was a possibility that I could make more money with this. Although my savings will be reduced considerably, I can’t solve a problem without making some sacrifices after all.

“This one please.”

“Yes, thank you for the purchase.”

I immediately equipped Kirikuji Dagger and kept the Nameless Sword into my [Item Box].

“Yosh, with this, the preparation is completed!”

As I still had plenty of physical strength and time, I departed to the Kenzaki Dungeon once again.
