[Chapter Size: 1581 Words.]Lucius POV...
...
While Lucius walked through the streets of Orario, he decided to be better prepared before the dungeon dive. So, he chose to use the points he had accumuted in the past few days to finally purchase new spells. He went to a more secluded and less crowded square, sitting on one of the benches and opening the grimoire shop in the system shortly after.
As he sat in the square, eyes fixed on the system's grimoire shop, a small crowd began to gather around him, watg his unusual as.
Unknown POV
In the same square.
"HEY, look at that." A mert said to his er, who was currently looking at his products in his booth. At a distance of 15 meters, sittio the square's fountain, there was a man with a rge cloak. However, what was strange for the mert and his er was the behavior of the young man they were both looking at the odd o because even at this distahey could see that he was looking at nothing, ily toug the air as if he were toug something.
"What the hell!?" Excimed the er, looking at the bizarre se.
"Why are you so surprised? This is normal for those traumatized ex-adventurers; they get a bit messed up in the head after suffering a lot in the dungeon. Orario is full of them," said a woman eared beside, shaking her head as if finding the se mentable.
"And who wears that cloak on such a hot day!? It may look pretty and luxurious, but even now in the m, it's too hot!" Another er excimed appeari, and everyone nodded in agreement, thinking that the person sitting in the distance is not very normal.
Lucius POV
In the same square.
"HEHEHE, I already know what I'm going to do!" Lucius thought.
Looking at the list, he began to scroll down the spell lines with his finger until he found what he wanted. First, I o get rid of this infernal heat; he finally found the spell he was looking for in the first options after looking at the rank 2 spells. Giving a big smile to the item he was seeing.
Oher side.
"LOOK! He's smiling like a maniaow!"
"These disturbed adventurers..."
Other people agreed, seeing how the man with a cloak in this heat and smiling alone, while sitting in the square carefree.
Lucius POV

[Do you want to buy this Grimoire? Yes/No]
"YES!"
He said mentally while clig the YES option. A book appeared in front of him after the space shone.
"Finally!" he excimed.
Oher side
"WHAT!"
"!"
"!"
"!"
They saw the book appear in front of that strange man out of nowhere, and the weirdo reading the bht there as soon as it appeared, after a while, not knowing that that man had the full attention of those people seeing him doing such strahings, a small crowd of people began to watch from a distance.
After a while, looking like he got tired of the book, he simply bur right there and threw it away as it turo ashes on the ground. No one spoke anything more after that, and they tio simply watch his strange behavior without knowing what was happening in front of their eyes.
But the amazement started again for those people because suddenly, another book appeared in front of the man.

Lucius POV
After spending 63,000 points, I decided to cool off using the ice spell. Since I didn't o sing Rank 1 spells to cast freezing, I began applying iy clothes to cool off.
"What a good feeling!" I excimed mentally, pletely satisfied with the refreshiion.
Oher side
"Now he's making a perverted face!!"
"Pervert!!"
Lucius POV
Rising with a big excited smile, I was ready to go to the dungeon. However, I noticed a group of people looking at me strangely.
'I don't like how these people are looking at me...' I thought as I assessed their expressions.
" I help? Do I look like some animal to you to keep staring?" I said, frowning.
"!!"
"Run, he's a maniac!"
"Call the Ganesha family."
"Who are you calling a maniac!" I shouted, fused by the sudden hostility of the people.
People were already running, and I had no idea what was happening. I shrugged with annoyand headed towards the Dungeon Hall.
Entering the dungeon, I tinuously applied the ice magi myself, beh my cloak, feeling a pleasaion of freshness, even with the bulky cloak. This improvement in my fort tributed to my good mood, as in previous journeys, I had suffered from the heat and stant sweating. , I headed for the mid-levels.
I walked through the tunnels of the first floor until I entered some neeared goblins. Instead of using magic to elimihem easily, I decided to deal with them differently.
[- STRENGTH BOOST SPELL!] A blue light shone around my body.
[- SPEED BOOST SPELL!] A green light also shone.
I felt the minimal ges; they were spells that increased my strength, endurance, agility, aerity by 10%, sting 2 minutes. My current stats were as follows:
---Stats---
? Strength: G248 (+25) -> 273? Endurance: F314 (+31) -> 345? Dexterity: G255 (+25) -> 280? Agility: G295 (+29) -> 324? Magic: SSS1.302
---Abilities---
? Blessing of ?????? (Nullifies Any Mana Cost)
---Spells---
? Fire Spell/Firebolt/Rank 2.? Ice Spell/Freezing/Rank 1.? Support Spell/Strength Booster/Rank 2.? Support Spell/Speed Booster/Rank 2.? Summoning Spell/Goblin/Rank 2.
The minimal ges still gave a signifit boost to my physical abilities. Excited with the results, I ran towards the goblins and began to cut them down easily, taking advantage of the increased strength and speed. Satisfied, I decided to test my new summoning spell.
[- SUMMONING SPELL, GOBLIN!!]
With a circle of white light appearing in front of me, a 70 cm Goblin emerged, holding a spear and a backpack. The small summon looked at me, creating an awkward sileween us as I tried to prehend the situation.
Unfortunately, the spell only allowed me to summon a single goblin, and I would o use mana to keep it with me. This meant it could stay indefinitely unless it died. If that happened, I could re-summon it without spending more mana.
While I stared at it, he suddenly noticed some bodies that hadn't disied on the ground. This sometimes happened, and I had to wait until they dropped crystals or cast a spell to finally destroy the body. However, for my new panion, these bodies didn't seem to be just dead monsters. He stopped looking at me and ran to the corpse, making strange sounds, starting to mutite the oblin dead by my sword.
"HEEE!" He shouted!
"What the hell is this?"
"What am I seeing?" I was bewildered as I watched the backpack goblin tear off the head of his deceased panion, holding it up like a trophy, and then awkwardly walking towards me to throw the head at my feet... looking at me proudly.
I looked perplexed at that little being.
"I'm trying to uand the logic of being happy with the head of a goblin that was already dead?" I tried to question myself.
"HEEEE!" It seemed to protest my words.
"You're not very bright, are you?" I said, looking at that peculiar creature.
"HEEEEEEE!!" He shouted in his nguage, whatever that meant.
"Look, let's do this: I kill the monsters, and you have the stohat fall from the bodies. you do that?" I asked calmly, still unsure if this creature would uand me.
"HEEEEEEE!!" It responded, fidently.
"Well, I'll take that as a YES!" I affirmed, and he nodded.
"I'll name you Riekling, okay?" I announced, and he screamed in response. He was as ugly as any oblin in the dungeon but with the distinct feature of having a huge backpack, almost double his size, simir to what Lili used. I found that quite iing!
After settling some points, we tinued dowh. Instead of relying solely on firebolts, I used my sword to defeat enemies. Fortunately, Riekling proved obedient, colleg the stones on the ground while eliminating monsters along the way.
Thus, a man in a red and white cloak, measuring over 1.80 meters, apanied by a greeure by his side with 70 timeters and a giant backpack, ventured deeper into the dungeon. A new pair, destio be reized by all of Orario iure, was born at that moment, with the only witnesses being the walls of the first floor.
