My Dungeon Life: Rise of the Slave Harem

Chapter 111

“Exorcism!” I shouted, my hand out stretched.

The ghost screeched as mana tore it apart from the inside out. It turned to attack me.

“Quick Attack!” I blurred, moving way faster than even that Knight on the floor above could move.

The ghost died right there, disintegrating before my eyes. I let out a breath of relief. See? It wasn’t suicide? Who ever said I couldn’t fight for myself? Now that I was back in my recently fixed Leather armor, I was in good shape. I also reset my dungeon points, and then redistributed them. There were two one-point skills in general that I had been eyeing for a while now. Especially after I had died, I had considered giving up portal and map.

The skills were Exorcism, a powerful ghost spell that did heavy damage and debuff to ghosts, and a sword called ghostbane that seemed to be able to do high spiritual damage on top of physical. I disliked the idea of summoning a material item with dungeon points, but desperate situations called for desperate measures. Ghostbane with Divine Aura was a very powerful weapon, and as long as I could surprise attack the ghost, I could take them out with ease. I didn’t give up map though. Double experience was the skill that I dropped. It hurt to give it up, but giving up reset was out of the question, and map was too important to navigating this labyrinth.

Map combined with life sense, and I could even visualize the monsters ahead of me. It was seriously OP. By the way, there was a time-stop inventory in the dungeon point system too, but it was considered a second-tier item and thus it was a 5 pointer.  There were higher tier ghost items too, including a ten-point necklace that just repelled ghosts entirely. Exorcism and Ghostbane just happened to be the only two I could afford.

Furthermore, as long as the ghost didn’t physically attack me, my high spiritual resistance from my white mage class also kept me strongly resistant. If there was more than one ghost though, I’d cast Holy Circle and run. The hallway-like paths of the dungeon were very small. Holy circle could completely block the path. In other words, I used it to stop the ghosts from chasing me. As long as I kept running, they’d be blocked and have to go around. With that, they almost certainly lost track of me and I could escape. Suffice it to say, I was equipped well in this dungeon, despite my initial brush with death.

I attacked another ghost. This one had the form of a soldier, which I interpreted as being a bit higher level. He wasn’t as intimidating as the knight from the floor above, but he was still troublesome. I hit him with exorcism, followed by a quick attack. He turned around and started attacking me. I sanctified the ground while backing up and dodging his spiritual attack. My Basic Swordsmanship wasn’t enough to overwhelm his fighting speed. The only way I could get a hit on him was with my Quick Attack skill. I changed White Mage to Slave Master, and then lept at him with another Quick Attack.

{Slave Master has increased to level 7.}

{Bond Slave has been unlocked.}

I let out a breath. It wasn’t what I was hoping for. I was hoping for slave locator or slave communication. I had been trying to level Slave Master this way hoping I could earn something. Yeah, I was going down instead of up, but being able to trace Miki would be useful if I reached a dead end. Just being able to communicate with my girls would be nice. They were probably starting to wonder where I was right now. Lydia was certainly worried.

There was a movement that caught my attention. I glanced over and noticed a head poking out from the corner.

“Ee!” She suddenly ducked back.

Yeah… that weird House Fairy found me about an hour after I left her unconscious and had been trailing behind ever since. She hadn’t attacked me, but I still worried she could. I could cheat and fight ghosts with my dp system, but I had nothing to stop the fairy if she decided to attack me again. Still, I didn’t regret freeing her.

I decided to take a quick break to allow my mana to rejuvenate. As I did so, I started going through my jobs and skills again to see if there was anything I could use to help gain an edge in the dungeon.

Checking through my jobs, I slapped my head. “Of course, True Dungeon Diver.”

It was only level 1. It would be very easy to gain 4-5 levels quickly. It was a higher tier job too, so I had high hopes for it helping me. Maybe, it even offered a means of escaping dungeons. Once I started thinking about my job and skill system, I put other things out of my mind, and had already ignored the girl, who was watching me sneakily again. I finally continued on, navigating by the use of the map and my sense life. Behind me, a fairy followed.
