System Cultivation (Ten Eyes)

As he was walking further into the Cave, Dae-Yang stopped. He could see a few red, shining eyes, staring right at him. He froze. The figure didn move. It was there, still waiting for Dae-Yang to make a move first. But Dae-Yang was rather too scared to even step ahead.

For a while, there was this awkward hum. Then all of a sudden, the figure jumped out of the darkness.

It was a Spider. And not an ordinary one. It was an Arch Spider. They are also bio-engineered species created by the Troopers to help them train. While Arch Spiders are not made to kill, the wounds can sometimes prove fatal.

Dae-Yang was scared. The Spider (what we will call it here) hopped and used one of its 8 legs to attack him. Dae-Yang instinctively jumped and dodged. It was a near miss.

The area that was attacked by the Spider was now dismantled.

”It is too powerful. I.. I just can . ”

While Dae-Yang was thinking, he felt a presence behind him. He looked back. There was another Arch Spider. It, too, tried to piercing him.

Klaack!

”Whoa! (Jumps into a corner. Dodges the second Spider. The first Spider also attacked him.) Eek! (Dodges that too. Falls down.)

M- my legs… They are numb. My body is unable to move. I can think straight!!! ”

Dae-Yang was traumatized. He wasn able to stand up. All he did, was sob again, just like the coward he was in his past life.

”N-no. I can . I have to do this. I can waste this life. I have to! ”

Suddenly, the Arch Spider in front of him opened its mouth. Energy started gathering around its mouth. Dae-Yang was watching the whole thing. The Spider shot an energy beam. Dae-Yang finally stood up. But his movement was sudden and too fast. Because of that, his ankle bent and sprained. The beam approached him and BAM!

The beam got past Dae-Yang and destroyed everything in its way.

(Awkward Silence)

(Noises of debris falling can be heard in a distant)

The energy beam was so powerful that even the two Arch Spider evaporated from its heat. It was just a Trainee Level Cave. How much powerful will be a foe of higher level? How much powerful will be the Troopers? What powers will be possessed by the Ten Orders?

Dae-Yang thought all of this. Then he opened he eyes. To his shock, he was alive. And not only alive, he was all fine. Not even a scratch.

”(Panting) Whoa…. I… I am alive?!.

It.. It must be Domain. Does that means I was able to repel my way of out of that energy beam.

Alright then (stands up) I guess it will not be that hard. Killing is the only way I can win from those Spiders. The best, I can look at four directions now from four angles. Only if I didn panicked before, my clothes would have been a little dry. I am covered in sweat now.

(Wipes sweat out of his face. Slaps both of his face cheeks lightly.)

Okay Dae-Yang. You gotta do it. You CAN do it. ”

Encouraging himself, Dae-Yang stepped deeper into the Abyss.

He walked for what looked like an eternity. There were nothing but rooms all over the place. He could hear some walking noises from further into the caves.

”Fighting bare hands. No. Ive got the Excalibur. (Opens Inventory) Here. ”

The Excalibur was heavier than he thought it would be. With the sword in his hand, Dae-Yang moved forward. He was now no longer scared because he now he trusted his S.Y.S.T.E.M.

After walking for a while, he found a room. It was darker than any other rooms in the Cave. Dae-Yang got an eerie feeling. As if someone was present there, with him.

”No matter what lurks here. No need to be scared. I can face it. I have everything needed to fight. ”

Suddenly, the Excalibur let out a spark. It was enough to light up the whole room. In the mere time of 2 seconds, Dae-Yang navigated the whole room. And he noticed another entity. A big moth like creature on the wall.

It flew towards him. The flapping sound of the wings was so loud that it could be heard from 100 meters away. With the help of the sound, Dae-Yang tried to move away and slash it.

Excalibur let out another spark. And this time, it kept its shine. The face of the Moth could be seen. Its 6 eyes and a face so horrifying that it would haint your dreams.

But Dae-Yang didn twitched. He knew if he did, Excalibur would loose its spark again. With a deep breath, he dashed towards the Moth and tried to cut it. The Moth flew up and behind him. Without looking back, Dae-Yang threw the sword behind him and it pierced through the Moths mouth.

Then Dae-Yang ran back, grabbed the sword and slashed the Moth into two.

[ *YOU HAVE EARNED THE TITLE /MONSTER HUNTER/ *]

[ *YOU HAVE LEVELLED UP* ]

Dae-Yang stood up, with the Moths red blood on his face and clothes.

”Looks like killing these helps my levelling. Okay then. I am gonna kill every single Trooper in this Cave and…..

(Removes his Blindfold, revealing his Red and Black Eyes)

… Only I will level up. ”

*Dae-Yang now is braver, but the Cave is not explored yet! What waits for him in the end? *
