Chapter 10
Chapter 10
’When you feel hopeless, that’s when you realize your limits. Your limit binds you. It gives you terror and a feeling of nothing but dispair and regret. It is good to know your limits but never let them limit you. If you think you have reached your limit, then you simply have to smile at it and challenge it. If you want to become like me or surpass me, you first need to break all your limits and become... limitless. ’
Zach recalled his father’s words.
The Wolf monarch’s eyes shined crimson red as its murderous glare turned more intense. It growled loudly and dashed at Zach with its mouth wide open.
Zach casually kicked his sword further away and slowly began walking towards the wolf monarch. He lazily stretched his hands and leisurely yawned as the wolf monarch came closer and closer.
The wolf monarch wanted to gobble up Zach in one bite, so it opened its mouth wide and tried to eat Zach. Zach, however, already had a plan.
When the wolf monarch was close enough to Zach, he swiftly dodge-dashed and placed his hand on the wolf monarch’s not-so-soft furs. Zach looked at his reflection in the wolf monarch’s eyes, then moved his head forward to its ears and whispered: "Die."
The moment Zach uttered that, the wolf monarch’s body was obliterated into pieces with not even a single cell left behind.
[Received 5000 EXP!]
[Quest- ’Clear ten floors of the dungeon’ has been completed!]
[Congratulations! You have received the reward of completing the Quest. Reward- 5000 EXP.]
[Leveled up!]
[Congratulations! You have received 50 accessible points!]
[Floor 10 has been cleared!]
Zach was delighted, not because he cleared the floor. Not because he killed the wolf. Not because he finally leveled up. Not because he received 5000 coins as a reward. He was happy because he was able to use the move he wanted to use.
"Yes!" he rejoined. "I did it! I did it, father!"

Just like any other ordinary human, he wanted to share his achievement with his friends and family. Zach wanted to show his late father that he finally managed to use the technique his father had taught him. However, he knew it was never going to happen.
’He would have been proud. After all my training, I was finally able to—’
Suddenly, Zach’s vision turned red, and he dropped to his knees.
"What’s happening?" he muttered as his entire body ached in pain.
[Insufficient MP! HP was used for the magic attack!]
Zach glanced at his HP bar, and he was horrified to see it was rapidly decreasing.
HP- [523/1500]
HP- [451/1500]
HP- [267/1500]
HP- [103/1500]
HP- [78/1500]
HP- [32/1500]
"No. No. No." As the seconds passed, his HP kept decreasing. Even Zach couldn’t stay calm in his current situation.
HP- [21/1500]
HP- [14/1500]
HP- [6/1500]
When Zach’s HP decreased to a single digit, he had lost hope. He was experiencing the feeling he had never felt before. He was scared. If what the black slime said was true, then this was truly an end.
HP- [1/1500]
The decrease in HP stopped at one HP.
Zach’s body was back to normal, and he wasn’t feeling any pain. Everything was fine, except Zach’s HP was one.
[Congratulations! You have achieved the title ’The Last Survivor’!]
’I am not the last survivor, though.’
[Congratulations! You Have Received A Skill— Devourer’s Touch!]
«Skill- Devourer’s Touch. This skill is given to the supreme dominator. (Skill can be upgraded upon reaching a certain threshold.).»
«Use- 2x damage to the enemy when used. Active - Always active. Cooldown- No Cooldown.»
1 MP dealt 50 HP DMG of the enemy, but Zach only had 100 MP. After Zach’s MP was used, his HP was used as MP. The DMG has doubled thanks to the skill, so 1 MP now deals 100 HP DMG.
Zach sighed in relief and opened his stats to check the changes. He used the accessible points to increase the stats. He had learned from his mistake, so this time he also used them on physical DEF.
He had 100 accessible points by leveling up two times. He used 20 on ATK. 20 on physical strength. 20 on physical defense. And 40 on AGILITY. Speed was still Zach’s priority because it affected all of his stats.
When Zach tried to use the accessible points on his Soul stats, it still failed.
His current stats were:
Level 6.
HP- 1/1500
ATK- 143.
Physical Strength- 143.
Mental Strength- 786
Soul Strength- 0
Physical DEF- 120.
Mental DEF- 712
Soul DEF- 0
AGILITY- 79.
MP- 0/∞
EXP- 5100/7500 (to level up.)
Physique- Celestial- Max.
Class- Cultivator. (Maxed)
Secondary class- Locked (can be unlocked after reaching level 10.)
Guild- Not joined.
Title- 1) Forbidden Existence. 2) Child of Atrocity. 3) Sign of Impurity. 4) The Last Survivor
Skill- 1) Martial Warrior. 2) Devourer’s Touch
It wasn’t luck or some last moment power-up, Zach had worked hard and put his life on the line to fight with the wolves, and he rightfully gained what he deserved.
"My mental stats have increased. I guess I now know how these stats work. I need to surpass my limit to become strong and survive."
Zach let out a big sigh and looked at the two portals. He shook his head and uttered, "I am getting out of here."
He looked at the timer and saw three minutes had left. "Shay and Kayden should be out too."
He stood up and walked into the yellow portal to exit the dungeon. However, as soon as he entered the yellow portal, it turned black.
