"Ow... ow... ow... God that hurts..." Daichi was moaning in pain as he cleaned and bandaged his wounds. Once the adrenaline ran out and he came down from his battle high, Daichi felt the painful effects of the cuts all over his body.

"Damn that hurts. If I see those little devil cats again, I'm gonna skin them..."

'Then again I did make the dumb decision to fight them all at once. And I didn't even try to get away...Yeah... Maybe not my best strategy.'

Daichi was hiding behind a large bush hidden from plain view. He periodically kept checking his Minimap to make sure he wasn't taken by surprise again. Several hours went by as he rested. Meditation helped his healing and recuperation. Once he was fully healed and rested he resumed his journey.

The sun was high in the sky. The temperature rose far above that of normal as the sun reached its peak. 'Even the climate of this dungeon is weird. It was really cold last night but now it feels like I'm walking in the desert at noon with no clothes.'

Daichi made his way to a small lake shown on the map. He took a look at the map and saw no enemies near him. Daichi relaxed a bit and reached into the lake. He took a handful of water.

'Observe'

[WATER]

[A tasteless, colorless, odorless liquid. Composed of chemical elements hydrogen and oxygen. No contamination particles detected. Safe for consumption.]

'Ok. Looks like I found myself a water source. Excellent.' Daichi happily brought his hands to his lips and drank the water.

"Ohh that feels good." He took another handful of water and when Daichi went on for the third time, his danger senses warned him.

You have sensed killing intent.

He jerked back as fast as he could and the next instant he saw a giant crocodile snapping its jaws close where his head was a second ago.

"Fuck... This thing almost took my head off. 'Observe' "

[LV.24] [Iron skinned crocodile]

HP: 2970 CP: 2761

[This large crocodile is native to the freshwater habitat in this dungeon. They prey on animals coming to or near the lake. Their skin is dense and as tough as iron so sharp weapons will not be useful against them. They are a very aggressive species of crocodile and opportunistic Apex predators. They have enough bite force to tear through even metal.]

Daichi quickly backed away as he read the information. He jumped and got up on a tall branch and observed the creature.

It had green blackish scales and a long tail slowly wagging from one side to the other. Daichi watched as the crocodile slowly backed away and into the water. In just a few moments Daichi lost sight of it.

"If you think I'm gonna come to you, then you're gonna be waiting for a long time."

Daichi turned around and left. He planned on killing it but only after he gained some more levels.

Daichi jumped through the trees. He felt the wind on his face and had a smile. It was his dream ever since he came here to travel around like a real ninja. Hopping on trees and walking on water. As Daichi traveled some distance he encountered several creatures.

Daichi spent over six days exploring the dungeon. He encountered various creatures living in the different terrains and successfully killed them.

The bloodthirsty bats that lived in a giant dark cave attacked him at night while wild saber tooth cats that made the grassland their home attacked him at dawn.
