My King System
Chapter 54 - Unforgiving Hell

Lydie accepted the pouch and began his journey to the kingdom. Facing the other direction, Meurig and Yuki sat on the zombified wolf. Once they had made sure they were completely ready for the next dungeon, Yuki commanded the wolf to take them to the dungeon gate. Hearing the order, the wolf sprinted as fast as it possibly could. While at first it caught Yuki and Meurig by surprise, they quickly grew accustomed to it until it eventually felt relaxing. The warm breeze was soothing to the skin, the birds were chirping. For once in a long time, Yuki got a chance to admire the world he had built, with the help of Zero of course.

After nearly 5 minutes of straight running, the wolf came to a stop.

"We have arrived," the wolf telepathically informed Yuki.

As they disembarked from the wolf, both Meurig and Yuki got a look at the dungeon gate. A 5 metre tall and 2 metre wide double door. Spiral engravings which glowed bright red. A suffocating stench to boot.

"So what do you think?" Yuki asked Meurig nervously.

"I don't want to go but I already know I don't have a choice in this, let's just get through with it already," Meurig replied.

They both exchanged a look and pushed open the double door. Once inside, the door automatically closed behind them and the initiation sequence took place.

[Welcome to the dungeon: Unforgiving Hell]

[Level recommended: 6-10+]

"There are 10 stages within this dungeon. After each stage, there is a save point. After you have reached it, you can leave the dungeon and come back later on to continue your quest here. If you choose to leave without reaching the next save point, all the exp you've earned after your previous save point will be lost," The robotic explanation voice said.

"If you agree to these conditions, please step forward to begin your quest," The voice continued.

"So we're starting where we left off," Yuki said.

[Open inventory]

Yuki took out "Fallen angel of hell" as well as "Niflheim's holy treasure".

[If you would like to move to the 1st stage of the dungeon, please step forward]

[Stage 1 difficulty: level 6]

Without a single doubt in his eyes, Yuki stepped through the white light which led to the first stage. The terrain was extremely large. Unlike the previous dungeon, you couldn't see the walls which enclosed the space except for the high ceiling. The ground was made up of dried dirt which was cracked overtime. The cracks themselves radiated heat and if looked at closely, one could observe magma in them.

Standing on the ground was an army of nearly 500 humans which were engulfed in flames. On both their arms and legs were chains however they weren't binding them.

[Human torch: Demelza]

[Human torch: Luliana]

[Human torch: Tanja]

Each of the 500 monsters had a different name but all had the same status.

"Well, we better get started," Yuki said before rushing off into the crowd as he dual wielded his swords.

Using his new attained agility from leveling up, Yuki swiftly and quickly cut off the heads of the human torches. After 1 straight minute of constant massacre, Yuki was hit on his left arm with a chain. He expected it to be a light hit since he had overpowered all his previous enemies, however the chain had managed to fracture his arm. In addition, it also managed to leave a seemingly permanent scar as it has absorbed the heat from the monsters.

"Dammit, I hate when this happens. I end up getting over confident then I suffer the consequences," Yuki said as he went on defense using his right arm.

"Why do I care, I can just use a full status recovery potion. It should even be able to regenerate limbs," Yuki told himself. '

With an evil grin on his face, Yuki placed "Fallen angel of hell" back in his inventory and decided on a one hand fighting strategy. Now, more confident than ever, Yuki went on a murder streak. Previously, his attacks were more dignified and quick. Now, Yuki didn't care about getting through the dungeon quickly, as long as he got to enjoy himself, that's all that mattered. Using "Niflheim's holy treasure", Yuki cut anything in his way. When the monsters got close enough, he would aim for any opening, whether it be their arms, legs or chest. As he went on, Yuki jabbed his sword into the head of one of the human torches. When he tried to pull it out, Yuki realized that his weapon was stuck. Instead of trying to come up with a logical way to gain control over his blade, Yuki placed his foot on the dead human torch and pulled his sword out as he pushed the monster to the ground. The scorching heat of the fire that covered the monster meant nothing to Yuki. Pain stopped registering in Yuki's body. All it knew was to kill.

Once Yuki managed to regain control over his blade, one of the monsters grabbed the chain which was attached to its arm and wrapped it around Yuki's arm. Seeing this, Yuki pulled on the chain and forced the monster to come closer to him. Once it was in his range, Yuki grabbed the human torch by its face and smashed it to the floor. Its skull instantly cracked and the monster stopped moving. Instead of continuing with his sword fighting tactic. Yuki placed his blade back into his inventory.

Yuki smiled at the rest of the monsters maniacally as he began to unveil his new fighting method. He grabbed the monster which he had just killed by the chain that stuck to its arm and began to swing it in circles. Yuki used the body of the dead monster to take out multiple crowds of monsters. Once he got bored of fighting like that, Yuki began fighting using hand to hand combat. Shoving his fist in the faces of all the monsters as they fell to the ground brought a sense of overwhelming power to him. However, Yuki didn't stop at killing the monsters, he enjoyed going further beyond. Yuki began to transition to his ulterior personality. He would keep pummelling the monsters with his fists, breaking every single bone in their body. Even then, he would kick and step on them. The agony he inflicted onto them was immeasurable. The human torches were no longer the monster in the dungeon. The role belonged to Yuki and Yuki alone.
