Chapter 13 - Leaving the Sanctuary

One week had passed since Souta's evolution to High End Goblin.

He completed the [Survival] mission which he needs to survive for five days. Well, if he failed in completing the mission it means that he died. He already expected it to complete this mission easily. If he was on the middle floor then he would die without even killing a single monster.

After becoming a High End Goblin, it became easy for him to complete the rest of the dungeons here on the upper floor. He spends his week in conquering all the remaining nine low-level dungeons. Although he level up quite a lot this time and increased his stats higher he still wouldn't dare to go down on the middle floor. The monsters there were completely different from the monster in the upper floor. A person will truly know why this place was called Undead Sanctuary once he/she goes down there. The Undead Lich, Death Knight, Greater Ghouls, Bone Tiger, etc. were a monster that can be found on the middle floor. Their levels were completely higher than the monster here on the upper floor. If he wasn't wrong the highest level of monster here was 19. And that level was average on the middle floor.

If all the undead here got out of the sanctuary, the undead would be able to destroy a few weak countries out there on the surface.

He became level 16 after conquering the whole upper floor of the Undead Sanctuary. His status became quite pleasing in his eyes especially his strength attribute. His strength attribute was now over one hundred. He could now literally punch a hole through iron without taking any damage.

He also collected enough souls to use the effect of the [Harvester of the Soul]. He used it twice and increased his dexterity and intelligence. He finally balanced his agility and dexterity. This made him even faster.

He used the souls in his intelligence because he got himself another spell. He got himself two spellbooks from the dungeons that he raided. He learned [Ice shot] and [Light Heal] by using four skill points. In truth, he found three skill books but the other one was also [Light Heal]. Unfortunately, the [Light Heal] cannot be used in one's self. In total, he already learned three spells. He only needed to learn two spells and he would reach the requirements to get a class.

Currently, Souta was bathing in the river. He was cleaning the wounds on his body that received from invading the Orc's dungeon. The power of orcs wasn't something he couldn't take lightly.

"Ah~ I will go out of this place tomorrow." He muttered with a satisfied expression. He already cleared all the dungeons here so it's normal for him to go out. His stats weren't enough to go down on the middle floor so he will get himself a class first. A mid-level dungeon was housing two hundred level 20+ monsters. He would stand a chance if he has a class and some powerful skill but unfortunately for him, he still doesn't have any class even if he's already level 16 and his skill was pretty much the basic ones.

"It sucks here!" He said as he looked up on the ceiling. He then stood up and went to the shore.

He picked his equipments and wore it. He hung his sword on his waist while the staff was on his back.

"Let's exercise first," Souta said as he did some exercise. Based on his experience, he knew that training or practicing could increase his exp.

He then practiced swordsmanship to increase his proficiency. He did not only trained sword skills he also trained his other skill to increase proficiency. The system didn't have a function to see the proficiency of skills. It was the same in the game.

After training, he roasted a fish and then ate it. He was happy that he learned the [Fire ball] spell. Using this spell he could create a fire to cook his meal. He doesn't want to eat any raw meat at all. It tastes bad.

"Hahaha! It tastes great!" He said as he bit a mouthful of roasted fish. It didn't have any seasonings but for him, it was good compared to the meat of goblin and kobold.

"This is the only time that I could truly relax my tense muscle."

He could relax as he knew that there's no other monster here in the upper floor except himself. He doesn't need to worry about the monster attacking him when he was sleeping. For the past week, he was tense and couldn't relax properly. He was serious in keeping himself alive.

"If I could get some alcohol then it would be perfect! Ahhh~ thinking about alcohol really made me want to rush in the city!"

After enjoying his meal, Souta fell asleep. He could finally sleep comfortably.

...

Souta woke up exactly after eight hours. He does some maintenance on his equipment before he packed up his belongings. Well, he only has equipments as his belongings and the skill books. He would sell these skill books in the city. In the game, after a player learned a skill the skill book or spellbook would vanish into the air.

"Let's go!"

He went to the center of the upper level. It was in the middle of the woods. There were no trees anymore as it was replaced by a huge flat rock. The surface of the rock was smooth and it contains a bit of magical power.

He went around and found stairs leading to the top. He walked to the top and found a huge magic circle on the ground. The magic circle was carved on the surface of the rock. It was a high-level teleportation spell.

"I wonder what will those people do once they knew that I've arrived in the real world of Battle Worlds Online," Souta smirked as he extended his feet and stepped inside the magic circle.

He waited for a while but nothing happens.

"Huh? Why didn't a prompt appear asking if I want to exit this place?" Souta muttered with a d
