Chapter 29 - Much More Fun
Axel smiled and nodded, they walked together towards the blue vortex and once on the other side it was as if they were arrived inside the mountain.
They were in the main gallery, the ceiling was over twenty meters above them and a little further the gallery divided into two different paths.
Axel deployed his senses and he discovered the expanse of the dungeon, it was a real galleries maze, but it wasn't as big as he had feared.
He shared his observations with Kevin and told him that they would probably need 4 or 5 hours to complete it.
He also told him that he was confident that he would be able to find his way back through all these galleries as he would only need to deploy his senses to find the exit.
Kevin trusted him completely and he said to him that he was going to keep his perception skill active like the last time.
Axel guided him to one of the galleries and the first group of monsters they encountered were orcs.
They had green skin, their bodies were similar to that of a human except that they were more muscular and that they were taller.
The smaller one must have been 2m tall and they had lower canines that went up to their cheeks and looked very sharp, some had armor and others not and Kevin with his perception skill gave their opponents' level to Axel.

There were 3 orcs of level 5, 7 and 8 and there were 6 knight orcs, 2 of level 10, 2 of level 12 and the last 2 of level 15 and 17.
Axel said excitedly : "It's starting well, we should be able to find a box not far from here, I'll leave the weakest to you and take care of the others."
Kevin nodded and took a dagger in each hand, it was time to level up. It didn't take long for him to take down the 3 orcs and Axel was also done, he had left for him the 2 knight orcs of level 10.
Thanks to the items he was equipped with, his Stats had exploded and he could fight and move the way he wanted.
Once he slit the throat of the last knight orc still standing and that he fell on his back finally dead, Kevin said to Axel pouting : "It was way too easy."
Axel laughed out loud and Kevin came up to him with his eyes shining with excitement and with a pleading tone he said : "Can you let me try to fight stronger monsters next time ?"
Axel hugged him and kissed him, he was way too tempting with his green eyes shining like emeralds, he said honestly : "Don't worry, of course I will let you fight stronger monsters.
I saw that the way you move has completely changed, do you feel more comfortable with this body now ?"
Kevin nodded satisfied with this response and said : "I feel completely comfortable now. Let's see what the System has offered us as rewards !"
The sound of the System hadn't stopped echoing in his head so he let the screen appeared in front of his eyes and read the messages to Axel.
[ Congratulations, you killed a level 5 orc, you earned 150 gold coins and 40 exp points. ]
[ Congratulations, you killed a level 7 orc, you earned 250 gold coins and 80 exp points. ]
[ Congratulations, you killed a level 8 orc, you earned 300 gold coins and 100 exp points. ]
[ Congratulations, you killed 2 level 10 knight orc, you earned 900 gold coins and 300 exp points. ]
[ Congratulations, you have leveled up, 1 point has been added to all your STATS. ]
Kevin checked his Stats right after and was delighted, looting a dungeon was much more effective in increasing his Stats than his daily quests, and it was much more fun too.

He also looked at how much experience Axel had gained and from 70 250 he had increased to 71 410.
Axel was happy to know that he too could gain experience, and after he put the bodies of the orcs and their weapons away in one of his magic bags that he had taken with him on purpose for that, he asked to Kevin : "So do you see a box ?"
Kevin shook his head and said : "No, I don't see any, let's keep moving."
A little further, the gallery was again dividing into two different paths, Axel used his senses to guide them and he chose to take the one that ended in a dead end and had monsters inside that seemed stronger than the ones they had just faced.
He warned Kevin and when Kevin got the information about the monsters, Axel hesitated.
Kevin had just told him that there were 3 elite knight orcs of level 22, 25 and 43, he asked Kevin for his opinion : "What do you want to do Kev ? Remember, there is nothing to heal you if you get hurt."
Kevin who was looking at the monsters who were also watching them said : "Leave the two weaker ones to me, I should be able to kill them without getting hurt, but I don't stand a chance against the level 43 one."
Axel pinched his cheek and said : "Like I'm going to let you face him, not even in your dreams Kev."
Axel thought briefly and still a little worried he said : "Okay, I'll leave them to you but I'll intervene if I think it's necessary."
Kevin nodded and with his two daggers that he twirled in his hands, he began to charge his opponents.
The elite knight orc with the highest level suddenly materialized in front of him but Axel immediately intervened and punched him so hard that he crashed into the back wall of the gallery.
Axel wasted no time and while this elite knight orc was still stunned by his punch, and couldn't even stand up, he crossed his swords in front of him and with a quick, brutal movement he chopped off his head.
Now that he was dead, he could take this opportunity to observe Kevin and he wasn't disappointed with the spectacle, his man was really a war machine all by himself.
The mere fact that he could stand up to this kind of monsters was already a miracle, but Kevin didn't only stand up to them he completely slaughtered them.
