Upon defeating the 30th Floor Guardian, we hastily descend to the next floor. Contrast to the gloomy and dark Graveyard Floors of 21st to 29th, the 31st Floor was a wide and grassy plains like the surface above this dungeon.

"The area is a lot cleaner than the ones below and had strongest monsters lurking. Let's Level up on these floors first before facing the Guardian."

"I understand, Sister. Monsters of several types are filling these floors. It's worth spending our time and also serves as training."

The 31st thru 39th Floor are called Plain Floors. Just as the name stated, these floors were all flatlands with little hills.

The plains had significantly lesser area than the Surface Floor and the Safe Areas, covering an area of four kilometer radius. Sieged by pitch-black stone walls of the height of two kilometers with a transparent membrane that prevent literally anything from escaping.

Not all areas are only covered with grass. Small cluster of trees also scattered throughout the plains like dots if seen at bird's eye view. Since it's autumn this season, and the season outside was the same in the dungeon, the grass and the tree leaves are changing its shade.

"There are many flying monsters here. Also walking ones." I muttered seeing the monsters dominating this area.

The monsters infesting on the Plain Floors had different and diverse variety. Their Levels are ranging from Level 131 to Level 239. Means monsters up C-ranked by Guild's tier list. When I said diverse, it includes the one flying approaching at us.

"A monster is already welcoming our arrival."

"Then let's give it a heartwarming appreciation, Raphael."

Hippogriffs are C-ranked monsters that had a head and lower body of a horse, front limbs of bird's talon, and a pair of falcon wings. It had an average wingspan of fifteen feet and light bones for faster flight speed.

When gain much Levels, Hippogriff will evolve into A-ranked Hieracosphinx, a step below the Legendary S-ranked Griffon.

The Hippogriff flew at us straight half sonic. Sister readied her blue naked blade and pointed it at the flying horse-falcon. Sister then charged forward to meet the Hippogriff.

Upon reaching the right timing, Sister thrust her katana aiming at the monster. The horse didn't even decrease its flying speed. In an instant, the blade pierced the flesh of the horse's chest and went straight to its heart.

"Neighhhhh!" The horse yelled an agonizing cry that echoed throughout the floor.

The Hippogriff stopped by the sword and meet the green earth. Sister didn't even knocked back by the impact because she's already strong in the first place.

"Now the others are welcoming us, too. Around a hundred or more. They must have heard the horse."

"Good… Let's start the banquet." She declared while pulling out her blade.

◆◇◆

"Graaahh!"

"Lightning Bolt."

Yellow streaks of lightning writhing all over my left palm as if it's alive. A beat later, a single streak of lightning bolt released from one of it and strike at the azure bipedal dinosaur.

The Level 4 Lightning Magic spell instantly spread throughout the body of a 12-foot long C-ranked Raptor. It electrified for several seconds before it collapsed on the ground.

"Pinnnggg!"

"Water Jet." I recite the name of the spell as I am pointing a finger on a group of flying opponents.

A small magic circle, around six-inch in diameter, appeared at the tip of my left index finger. Then ultra-speed water gushed forth from the magic circle and spouted to the very sky.

I waved my left arm leftwards and cleanly sliced all the six 15-foot wingspan C-ranked Great Eagle in one swipe. Level 6 Water Jet is a jet of water had a water pressure surpassing 200,000 psi. That pressure could easily cut off a thick layer of steel.

<Experience fulfilled. You levelled up by 1.>

<Skill Bullet Plume can be plundered. Would you like to obtain it? Yes/No.>

"Yes. Finally, a Level up."

After killing more than almost a hundred of monster, I finally gained a Level. Even with a blessing, I'm still having a hard time gaining EXP. The higher the Level, the harder to Level up.

I wiped off my forehead sweat before looking for my sister on my Omnidirectional Perception. I instantly casted "Warp." to her as I pointed out her exact location.

"Folded Slash."

"Mooo—!"

As I went to her location, she used a Sword Art technique and gracefully slashed her blade six times decapitating six C-ranked bison-like Bicorn.

"That's my beloved sister."

"I gained four. How about you?"

"Five."

"The number of monsters?"

"We slew too much. The respawn rate of this floor cannot catch up with our pace. We better get to another floor."

We're been on killing spree for more than a hour. We already one-sidedly slaughtered hundreds, or probably a thousand, of monsters non-stop until it affect this floor's monsters respawn rate. Right now, there were only less than a hundred entities in this floor.

"Indeed. Let's clean up the mess of this floor first."

"I'll take care of that issue, Sis."

Given that we're inside a dungeon, an isolated space, I've been able to perform my abilities almost no restriction.

I widened the coverage of my Omnidirectional Perception to the point where I overwhelmed the entire floor. Within my range, I identified then pinpoint the location of each monster corpses.

(The dots keep popping up. It's getting annoying.)

After the last dot popped up on my radar, I am getting ready for the next step.

"Inventory."

Under the cold corpses, a pitch-black disk appeared and slowly swallowed hundreds of dead bodies. The dots gradually disappearing on my radar until the last one vanished after a couple of seconds.

"Done."

"It really is convenient to have that skill. It's the combination of Inventory and your Unique Skill, right?"

"Yes."

"If you're done, let's go."

After that, we continue to slay monsters to Level up in the lower floors. We spent another hour farming our massive source of EXP until we goes down to the 40th Floor.

◆◇◆

"So, a Raptor Lord is the Domain Guardian of this Floor, huh. It's so eye catching."

"First time seeing one. Seems larger and stronger than a Tyrant Lizard."

After annihilating indefinite amount of monsters in the plains, we hastily entered the 40th Floor Guardian Room. Upon laying our gaze into the monster inside, we couldn't help but feel amazed at its majestic appearance.

A-ranked Raptor Lord, a superior evolution of the Raptors that we fought above. A bipedal monster with a radiant turquoise blue scales. It had a long snout like of a crocodile and a length of twelve meters. But for me…

(It looks like a sailless spinosaurus!)

Thud.

After the doors of the four hundred by four hundred meter room shut, the sharp amber eyes of the raptor unfold. Seeing us, its prey, its immediately engaged itself to towards us with an intent to kill.

"Haa!"

Suddenly, Sister jumped in place and fluidly twisted her slender body counterclockwise. At the perfect time, the rushing raptor flew for several meters upon taking the powerful kick of my sister.

"What a hard scales." Sister commented after she landed.

"It's probably the Dragon Scales."

After a second, the raptor stood up as if nothing happens. The area where the kick of Sister landed turns thicker and radiate a pale glow. Indicating the activation of its Racial Skill Dragon Scales.

"Let me try its tolerance. Level 4: Flame Pillar."

With a snap of my fingers, a huge scarlet magic circle suddenly appeared under the confused raptor. Without a word, vivid flames bathe the raptor whole.

"Grraaww!"

The raptor screamed in pain as it is engulfed in extreme heat, but it just from the start. Seconds later, the raptor adapted the heat and overcome the hell.

After the flames subdued, the raptor stood in place with sizzle all over its blue body. Dragon Scales not be thicken the defenses, also reduces the damage taken, physically and magically.

"Grrraww!"

With a deafening cry, the raptor charged at us at high speed with its enhanced legs. We responded by unsheathed our blades and also charged to the running raptor.

"Lightning Blade."

"Thermal Blade."

We activated our respective magic blade spells in unison to transform our blades into magic swords. Yellow flickering lightning enveloped Sister's Raven Blue while blowing blaze flames on my katana named Sanguine Lotus.

"Grraaaaawww!"

We slashed our blades on each of its thick hind limbs as we met. Our blades pierced its tough scales and even scraped its bones. Its wounds instantly burned and charred as it met our scorching blades.

The raptor turned around then opened its mouth and attack me with its Bite Skill. I evade its super fast snap with minimal effort as I have faster AGI stat than it. But solo fight isn't Raptors' forte at all.

Raptors speciality was teamwork. With a superior leader, like this Raptor Lord or even the B-ranked Greater Raptor, Raptors could easily hunt down their prey even if it had higher ranking than its predators.

(If it had Summoning Skill like the Lich before, it could have summoned its cronies and made this landslide fight more exciting.)

Distracted, the Raptor didn't even noticed Sister dazzling blade coming straight to its neck. It activate Dragon Scales on its neck but the quality of our blades are already enough to slice it without using any technique.

Thud.

With a dull sound, the fight had been already concluded.

"Let's call it a day after we receive our rewards and mark a spot on the next floor."

"Indeed. Mobilizing my body that much really wear me out."

I stored the raptor and the Unique-grade item, Magic bag, into my storage. We went home after I made a step on the 41st floor and planned our activities for the next days.
