“I will be out for a while, ladies. See you later.”
“Later again, Master.”
After my exchange with Czarina and Inari, I cast Warp upon myself and was instantly transported from the 30th Floor toward the 50th Floor of the dungeon for a certain reason.
“Okay.”
Standing in front of the door to enter the room of the 50th Floor Guardian. The reason I am here is to test my abilities.
The winter is coming, and the autumn winds are becoming colder and colder. My future visits to the dungeon might lessen since I will be departing for the empire.
Before the winter becomes severe, my whole family will go to the empire together to celebrate the 15th birthday or the coming of age ceremony of my fiancee, Sophia.
Once the celebration was over, I would be staying at the Imperial Capital since I would be attending the academy to study. Not that studying was necessary for me since the people around me had been teaching me things; it was just that a noble needed a degree before formally becoming a lord.
That was why I wanted to spend the remaining time in the dungeon with my loved ones, passionately. But before that, I will use this day to experiment with my abilities in ways that I have never done before.
When I was fighting the Ancient Dragon of Darkness, who is now Czarina, I evolved myself and awakened a few powerful abilities. One of those abilities was the Overlord of Sins ultra skill.
The Overlord of Sins was a series of seven abilities that gave unique effects on the user and the targets. During my battle with Czarina, I used three of the seven abilities of the Overlord of Sins in order to take her down: Sloth, Greed, and Envy in the right order.
Here is the description of those three abilities, by the way.
==========
[Sloth]
Active: Increases the mana consumption and lengthens the casting speed of the targets by 100%. Cancels the targets’ voiceless incantations if the targets are non-monsters.
Passive: Reduces the mana consumption and shortens the casting speed of the user by 50%.
==========
[Greed]
Active: Seizes up the desired skill(s) of the target without fail. The user can seize skills of different levels simultaneously. Each skill level has its own cooldown, and the cooldown varies with the level of the seized skill.
Passive: The skills of the user cannot be stolen or copied.
==========
[Envy]
Active: Disables the defensive abilities of the target. Reduces the defensive stats of the target by 75%. The output of the attacks by the user on the selected target increases by 50%. Only applicable to a single target at a time.
Passive: The skills and magic spells of the user cannot be disabled or deactivated.
==========
Aside from the active effects on the target, each of the abilities had passive effects on the user, which was me. The passive effects were always available, even in my sleep.
After acquiring the Overlord of Sins, my body had become much more convenient and efficient than before due to the passive effects of the skill.
Coupled with the Ancient Dragon blood that was running through my veins, the passive of Sloth had made my spellcasting faster and produced more firepower. Even voiceless castings were a lot more potent than they were supposed to be.
The three sins mentioned earlier were already powerful and nasty, but the other four did not fall behind either, namely: Pride, Gluttony, Wrath, and Lust.
Though some of the actives were situational, their passives really helped me all the time, especially the passive effect of Pride.
Pride had a very powerful and unbalanced active effect, although I could activate it in a particular situation. That best moment was when I fought Czarina, but she eventually surrendered, so I did not have the opportunity to use it.
A few weeks ago, Czarina and Inari had a mock battle with me in the dungeon. And the moment I activated the Pride, their defeat was already inevitable.
After the battle, Czarina and Inari said that the Pride was so unfair. Judging from the battle outcome, I had concluded that the Pride alone could overwhelm two legendary monsters at once.
Not only its active was powerful, its passive brought significant amount of improvements in my own body. The passive effect of the Pride was…
==========
[Pride]
Passive: The experience points the user receives upon successfully killing a monster will increase by 100%.
==========
Yeah. Since acquiring the skill, the EXP that I had been harvesting from the monsters had doubled. Along with my God’s Vessel blessing, the total EXP I could get per monster kill had increased to 220%.
According to Akashvani, the amount of EXP a person could gain was equal to the monster’s level multiplied by sixteen. That was only for someone without any EXP boosts.
So if I, an individual who gained an extra 120% of EXP with every kill, killed a Level 100 monster, I would have gained 3520 EXP instead of the original 1600 EXP, which was completely absurd and beyond any common sense.
I had been leveling up so quickly already, but having that much extra EXP greatly accelerated my leveling to the extreme. But thanks to that, I do not have to spend too much time killing monsters.
Recently, I had a lot of free time in the afternoons once I reached my daily Level quota. I had been able to bond with Yuki and Griffith for longer. Additionally, I had been spending more time with Czarina and Inari in bed.
By the way, I asked Akashvani more about the leveling system and learned that the required EXP for the next Level Up was the squared value of the next Level. Since I am now around Level 1200, I have accumulated around 650 million EXP.
With my exponentially boosted experience point acquisition, I would be able to surpass my parents not long in terms of Level. Though both of them were more leveled than I am, my overall stats exceeded each of theirs.
“Hmph.”
I pushed and opened the metallic doors of the Floor Guardian room once I placed my palms against them. With my current strength, the doors opened smoothly, and the figure of the entity behind those doors also revealed itself smoothly.
Me and my sister had been here once and defeated the Floor Guardian, which was a Level 500 Abyss Slime. And the Guardian today was a gigantic black blob of familiarity. Yeah, it was still the same.

==========
I kind of expect to be welcomed by a different monster, but I have nothing to do with it. The reason I was here was to expect a new monster for me to plunder a new unique skill.
Shut.
Upon the closing of the doors, which was the activation of a middle boss fight, the black blob awakened and began to move.
Once the Abyss Slime recognized me as the intruder, it fired a few rounds of its fragmented gloop at bullet speed, which I evaded with minimal effort.
“Okay, no need to waste time. I will just end it in an instant.”
Snap.
As soon as I said that, I snapped my fingers to exhibit the manifestation of the activation of a certain skill.
Squish.
Along with my snap that was resonating through the room, the Abyss Slime suddenly went sluggish and eventually stopped moving. After that, the life of the slime had come to an end thanks to the Ultra Skill: Ruler of Death.
“Hm. It was as easy as I thought.”
Since the Abyss Slime did not possess an ultra skill, the Ruler of Death was more than enough to do the job. But I had acquired its Unique Skill a year ago, so I got nothing sort of ability from it.
But the Gluttony could take something from that huge lump of black blob. Once confirmed dead, I approached the slime and stopped a few meters away from it.
“Devour it all, Gluttony!”
Upon my command, a pitch-black disk was conjured under the body of the slime, and an ominous-looking entity with sharp teeth quickly gulped the slime whole.
<The Gluttony of the Overlord of Sins has been successfully triggered, and you have gained additional stats. MP +1000, STR +500, DEF +400, MAG +900, MDEF +1200, AGI +500.>
“Yeah. Gluttony really is a broken ability to have.”
==========
[Gluttony]
Active: Devours the body of the deceased target along with its lingering soul. If the target’s soul is devoured, the user will gain 10% of the target’s stats.
Passive: The user gains immunity to diseases and starvation.
==========
The Gluttony consisted of abilities that were downright scary and broken. The scary part was that Gluttony was not as situational as Pride and its active effects were always available.
But the only downside was that devoured souls could not be converted into soul essence anymore. Not that I care about it; even though I did not gain any SE, I got stat boosts instead, which was actually better.
By the way, I could freely choose what to eat and thought to only devour the strong ones and convert the weak into soul essence. I have been devouring some souls and gaining stats, so I have become quite powerful lately.
“Hm. Seems like I have to wait for the next monster.”
Then I exited the room and waited for several minutes for the Guardian to resurrect.
