Chapter 17:

Deadly Battle In The Dungeon 5th Floor Continued

Overwhelmed by the sight of the giant litter rushing toward me, I stood still.

My heart skipped a beat, and the scenery slowed to a crawl as I felt a strong presence of death. And as I was about to see a runaway light, a strong feeling of "I will not be run over and killed by a cockroach I hate!"

With this thought, I clenched my teeth and frantically moved my arms and legs in a world that felt like it was in slow motion. However, the massive cockroach is almost right in front of me.

(Ugh, the only escape is up there!)

Quickly, I leaped on the spot. The massive cockroach rushed in without paying attention to the green nylon bird net I set up as a defensive formation. The massive cockroach passed by at breakneck speed, wrapping the net around its feet. The massive cockroach pulled the net and the clothesline and attacked me in the sky too.

(Triangle jump!)

I kicked the dungeon wall and forcibly moved my body to avoid the net and the clothesline. But because of my movement, I lost my balance. At this rate, I could not even catch myself and had no choice but to fall to the hard floor.

(Nya, nyanpari!)

I quickly rounded myself and did three rotations in the air. I did a posture control by taking advantage of the moment. Then, with the cat's lightness, I could land on the dungeon floor with nothing under my feet. As soon as I turned around, there was a tremendous sound.

[Giggityguggity! Sugigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigigig!!!"]

The massive cockroach, which had gone straight through the double simple defensive formation, had a net entangled in its many spiky limbs, and it lost control and came to a stop, scraping the right side of its body against the wall.

And even though the massive cockroach tried to move, it couldn't move as it wished because its body was entangled with the net.

(Thank goodness I set up a defensive formation!)

I was thrilled that such a simple defensive formation did its job well.

["Gitch!..millimillimillimillimillimillimillimillimillimillimillimillimillimBuchi!"]

But still, the opponent was a massive cockroach. It tried to escape from the net by brute force. But the net, though thin, is made of nylon. And it is double-layered. When I thought escape would be impossible, the massive cockroach forcefully tore up the net into strips.

"Damn! Sticky Bullet! Sticky Bullet! Sticky Bullet! Sticky Bullet! Sticky Bullet!!!!"

The countless sticky bullets produced by the Sticky Bullet quickly turn the massive cockroach into a mucus-soaked mess. However, it's not like I want to see the massive cockroach in bondage covered in mucus.

The sticky bullet is, in essence, a torimochi bullet. The liquid nature of the mucus is made as low as possible, and its viscous nature is made as high as possible. The Sticky Bullet was created by the power of the skill [Mucus].

The Sticky Bullet has blocked the massive cockroach's movement. Okay, now is the time to kill it. But I have no weapons. I had to let go of my bat and shield as I was being chased around and ducking body blows. Moreover, my protective gear was in tatters from rolling on the floor and bumping into things.

I hurriedly looked around to find an iron bamboo spear. I always carried that spear with me when I carried my simple defensive formation and kept it as a spare weapon in the camp.

My iron bamboo spear was neither broken nor bent and had fallen. It was stuck in the corner of the passageway. There it was! I picked it up as if to jump on it and, poof, thrust it into the abdomen of the massive cockroach which at first glance seemed to have the lowest defense.

["Gakyan!"]

Before I could escape, light surrounded me. I escaped in a panic. I notice my body that is touched by the light is warm and comfortable. As if I had just soaked in a bath.

"What the?"

I stop in place, and the light slips into me. It doesn't feel unpleasant but very pleasant, as if power filled my body. Soon, I absorbed all the light from the massive cockroach, and my surroundings returned to their usual dungeon brightness.

I don't know why. But anyway, I defeated the massive cockroach. And I survived. The other cockroaches had already been annihilated by the Acid Mist I had released, and there were no monsters around.

The only thing in front of my eyes now is the outer shell of the massive cockroach. It has lost its contents and crumbled into pieces. Could it be that this is a drop? Anyway, I hid by the stairs and tried to calm down and understand what had happened.

Then my status became ridiculous.

Title

The Bug King

My level has increased by 10, and each ability value has increased by 100. Even luck, which until now has been ironclad and unwavering, has increased by 100 to a value of 103. What is this?

There are many strange things about this status. The values are always off, and this time, the value of knowledge is replaced by intelligence. It makes me wonder if I can trust it.

However, power filled my body. My body was injured by running away from the massive cockroach and hitting here, and there was healed. I don't even feel the pain anymore. My ability value has been doubled! The doubled physical strength seems to have allowed my body to recover naturally.

Hmmm, there are many things to think about. But anyway, let's go back to the front room of the dungeon.

My head is in turmoil, and my equipment is in tatters. If another massive cockroach appeared when I'm in such a state, I would be in for a rude awakening. I quickly searched for and retrieved a barbecue shield and a bat, and returned home, collecting the dropped items and dragging them through the net.
