An Extra’s POV

[Moments Earlier]

"Damn… I didn't think this through."

As Rey slaughtered the last of his enemies on the 31st Floor, he heaved a heavy sigh.

It was a lava-like area, with flame geysers all over the area, and hot magma flowing like rivers all over the area.

His enemies were Flame Salamanders—one of the most powerful C-Tier Monsters to exist.

Of course, he easily defeated them, so they weren't the issue.

The Boss' corpse currently sat at his feet, so it wasn't also a challenge for him.

Even the incredibly hot environment wasn't the issue for Rey—not the one that mattered at the moment.

"I can't believe I'll have to keep going down these Floors until I reach the bottom."

The lower Rey descended, the wider the Dungeon Floor seemed to get.

Even though he wasn't really holding back, and was easily decimating all his enemies, he estimated that it would take him hours before he reached the Lowest Floor.

'Can it wait that long? I'm not sure…'

Rey felt stuck, but he had to keep moving forward.

"Haa…" He sighed, the heavy breath leaking out of his new mask.

In fact, it wasn't just his mask that was new.

Everything about his attire had now changed into something different—something better.

His Orichalcum mask was replaced with something softer, but far more durable than the former.

That ensured he was more comfortable with his mask, while ensuring his wasn't compromised.

Since his new mask was also enchanted, that meant he was enjoying all the benefits of a special mask without the disadvantages.

This was just the start, though.

His entire outfit—from his cloak, to his belt, to his boots, to both of his gloves, to the ten rings that decorated his fingers, and the three necklaces hidden under his black shirt, and the bracelets under his sleeve, and the headband hidden under his mask…

He currently had 35 Items equipped—all gotten from the KariBlanc Group.

'It's a shame they don't have any Item that gives long-distance teleportation.' Rey sighed as he looked to his side.

The Half-Elf girl he kept in her bubble was still unconscious, which made him relieved.

He didn't want to start dealing with her when his hands were already full.

By using both Sound and Wind Magic to ensure she was comfortable, and no noise reached her in the slightest, Rey believed she could just as well sleep through the entire ordeal.

"Welp! On to the next floor!"

With merely a casual stomp, Rey easily destroyed the entrance to the next Dungeon Floor.

The whole thing shattered apart, allowing Rey to descend to the next Floor.

"Haaa… much better." He muttered, feeling glad to see a nice change in his surroundings.

Several aged trees and large boulders greeted his sight, revealing how this space was going to be particularly filled with enemies that had shared properties.
