4 Chapter 4 (1/2)

”That's right! According to the description of my skill, anything linked to me can become stronger. My luck is obviously linked to me… does that mean I can raise my luck?!” thought Cade.

10 000 years had passed since the appearance of the system and there was never once recorded that it was possible to increase luck. There was some equipment that can increase luck but that was not a permanent increase.

There was never once in history of someone capable in increasing their luck stat permanently.

Cade felt excited thinking of that. Without wasting any time, he tried putting one stat points on his luck. Cade prayed in his heart that it will work.

Luck played a crucial part for Cade to be able to strengthen his linked equipment. He needed a lot of magic crystal to strengthen his equipment. With low luck, he won't be able to farm many magic crystals.

Once Cade decided to use one stat point on his luck, his luck stat increase from 1 to 2. Cade stared at his luck stat. Instead of 1, it was 2 now.

Cade's mouth trembling and slowly it curled into a smile, a big smile. Cade started gasping for air and then, he jumped in the air celebrating that he can increase his luck.

”Woooohooooo!!!!” Cade screamed in joy. He clenched his fist hard and was extremely happy. He had never felt this happy in his whole life. He felt happier than when he awakened a few weeks ago.

Without further ado, he poured all of his stat points on his luck increasing his luck stat from 2 to 11. Cade did not feel much different compare to before but he knew he will feel it once his luck was higher.

With the new discovery of his skill, Cade did not waste anymore time and started hunting for more slime. He wanted to raise his level fast and increased his luck.

A few hours later, Cade raise his level once more to level 3. He got another 10 stat points and used all of them on his luck. His luck increased from 11 to 21.

After that, he continued hunting for more slime but he realized the quantity of slime in the first floor had dwindled. He found it harder and harder to meet another slime.

He had been hunting them since afternoon and the first floor had almost gone empty. Cade checked his system and found out that there were only 2 more slime available in the first floor.

The monster count was part of the system function. Whenever an explorer entered a dungeon, they will be able to keep track of the number of monsters present in the dungeon.

However, only monsters they had killed once before will be able to be detected. If it was a monster they never killed before, there will be no count of that monsters.

Since Cade had killed a slime, he was able to keep tract of their number in the first floor. The two slimes left in the first floor were both level 2.

”Tracking these two slimes will be a pain,” thought Cade and it was true. The first floor was huge and it was common knowledge for explorers that all first floor of every dungeon was the biggest floor compared to their other floor.

Cade did not know if he should search for the last two slimes or moving on to the next floor. After a bit of thought, Cade decided to enter the next floor.

His reasoning was simple. He did not enter the dungeon to complete it but to level up. However, Cade decided to go out of the dungeon as it was already late in the evening. He needed some rest after hunting for quite a while.

It was his first time so he was not use to it and he felt much more tired than he used to.

”Maybe I should raise my endurance a bit,” said Cade as stamina was important if he wanted to last longer. Cade walked back to the entrance of the dungeon.

While walking towards the entrance of the dungeon, Cade found one of the last two slime in the first floor. Without wasting any time, Cade killed the slime. His level did not increase but to his surprise, the slime dropped a magic crystal.

”My first item drop!” said Cade excitedly. He took the magic crystal and inspected it. It was a grade E level 2 vitality crystal. Slime was only capable of dropping the vitality crystal and it was impossible to get another type of magic crystal.

Cade stored it in his storage and continued walking out of the dungeon. Once he got out, it was already dusk and he took out a tent out of his storage and set it up beside the portal.

Once he set up his sleeping place, Cade opened his storage again and he had more empty slots in his storage now. He was currently level 3 and he had 30 empty slots.
