Reborn As An Evolving Monster

'Alright.'

Mark and his three Underlings were standing in front of the wooden doors that lead to the Seventh Floor.

[You have gained 1000 Experience Points.]

[You have leveled up!]

'Nice. Getting XP to stay on the Eighth Floor and get me Experience Points was definitely a good choice.'

Mark pushed the doors open himself.

As soon as the doors were pushed, green clouds started seeping through the opening.

'It's not poison...'

Mark opened the door.

A macabre atmosphere reigned in the area.

The floor was made of rectangular smooth rocks.

After walking for a bit, they found a staircase and went up.

Once they arrived at the top, the group found themselves inside a rectangular room.

Four doors on each of the room's walls.

'Wish I had a map...' Mark thought.

[Your request is being processed.]

[Analysing...]

[Your request has been accepted.]

[Calculating...]

[Cost: 5000 Gold Coins.]

'Sure. I'll buy it.'

A digital map appeared in front of Mark.

'You're joking, right? Four rooms, each one leading to another room? Apart from the one where I'm in, eight rooms in total. That's it? Why did I even buy a map for? Analyzing, calculating? it was only accepted because the map was shit, huh? Anyways, the rooms are all pretty large. Wait... Why are there four Boss Rooms?'

No answer came from the System.

Mark felt his heart beating faster.

'Let's start with the smallest room then.'

Just as Mark was about to open the door, Light leaped above him.

The Shadow Wolf landed on the ground, and a Skeleton was between its fangs.

'So that's what this Floor is about... Let it go.'

Light obliged.

The Skeleton struggled to stand up.

'This is how I used to look, huh? What I was, I should say.'

Mark walked towards the Skeleton.

Curious.

He laid his hand on the Skeleton's skull.

It tried struggling, but it was useless.

Mark bent his body, so as to be at eye-level with the Skeleton.

'The difference in strength, can you feel it?'

A sadistic gaze stared at the helpless Skeleton.

Crush-

'Oh. I still have trouble controlling my new strength, I guess. Anyways...'

The group went through the door.

'Mmm.'

On the other side, they found hundreds of Skeletons.

A second later, hundreds of hollow eyes were staring at Mark, who was standing in front of the group.

Beyond the wave of Skeletons, Mark could see a second set of doors.

'Those must lead to the next room, therefore, to one of the Guardians. Mm. There's quite a bit of them... Kira, use your Great Fire Ball Skill and take them out. Light, get rid of the ones who get too close.'

The Underlings obeyed, and huge fire balls were shot at the Skeletons, wiping out dozens at a time.

'Kalès, come with me.'

Mark and his Underling left the room.

'Which one should we choose...'

The two entered the second smallest room.

In it, they found all kinds of different Skeleton Monsters.

'Those look like Black Wolf Skeletons... Orc Skeletons... Weretigers... Oh, they even have Winged Kobold Skeletons. Let's get to it, Kalès.'

Mark and his Underlings started smashing the moving bones in front of them one by one.

'They're pretty weak, but if you're not careful you will get hurt. The number of Monsters fought at once is way higher than any of the previous Floors. I guess if enough of these guys work as a team, they could defeat Minotaurs... Maybe even Higher Minotaurs...'

While Mark and Kalès dealt with about 150 Monsters, Kira and Light dealt with about 300.

After dealing with all the Monsters, the group reunited.

'I guess we'll leave the biggest room.'

They entered the second biggest room together.

In it, other familiar Monsters were found.

'Minotaur Skeletons, huh? It's hard to guess which are Minotaurs and which are Higher Minotaurs judging from their size only...'

While Light couldn't damage the skinless Monsters much, the team cleaned up well.

'Let's go for the biggest room. This should be no problem.'

Still, Mark was cautious.

'The easier the main Floor is to clear, the stronger the Guardian of that Floor is...'

As they entered, a single Monster was found.

It was a Monster Mark had never seen before.

'What is it?'

Once more, the Monster was a Skeleton Monster.

It stood on two legs, but was different from Minotaurs or Orcs.

Instead of arms, it had wings.

The light in its hollow eyes shined yellow.

[Inferior Wyvern Skeleton: [C-] Rank Monster. ]

The next instant, the Monster spread its wings and took off.

'It's pretty fast!'

As the ceiling was high, the Inferior Wyvern Skeleton was out of reach.

The Monster circled the room while breathing out a stream of fierce flames.

The more agile Mark and Light dodged easily, but Kira took damage from it.

The Royal Minotaur dodged the attacks while holding a black javelin.

A blue aura surrounded Mark's arm and the black javelin.

'Not yet... Not yet... NOW!'

The black javelin was thrown with insane strength.

It hit the flying Monster's right wing.

The Inferior Wyvern Skeleton started its descent.

Kalès ran as fast as he could towards the spot the wyvern would land on.

In his hands, was a brand new warhammer made by using the bones of the biggest Minotaur Skeletons that were in the previous room.

Kalès swung it with all his strength towards the Monster's head, but it dodged and embedded its fangs inside his neck.

The Orc Of Minos responded by letting go of his weapon.

Instead, he grabbed the Monster into a bear hug.

Under Kalès' full strength, cracks started to appear on the Skeleton Monster.

The Inferior Wyvern Skeleton pulled out a portion of Kalès' thick neck and tried to move away.

Mark arrived a second later.

He jumped above Kalès and punched the Skeleton Monster's head with his arm wrapped in the blueish aura.

Mark landed behind the Monster.

'It's not going down?'

Mark raised both his arms and slammed them on the Wyvern Skeleton's spine.

If it had blood, it would have bled.

If it had vocal cords, it would have cried in pain.

Mark repeated that action once more.

[You have defeated a Inferior Wyvern Skeleton. 4000 Gold Coins and 8000 Experience Points earned.]

Mark stepped away, followed by his Underlings.

He stopped a second later.

'Wait. I can revive this guy...'
