Aevintyr Elds

It's been a week since Bjorn first entered the dungeon. 

Since the first day, he had always trained early in the morning, cooked for Loki in the morning, entered the dungeon in the afternoon, exited the dungeon near sunset, and sold all loot to the guild or Airmid. 

In addition to that, he was also tasked by Loki to come to her every night, so that she may update his status. 

Everyday, Bjorn's status continually increases, to the point that he has to change floors quite rapidly… Due to that, with notice straight from Loki, he received permission, from his advisor, Rose, to enter further into the upper levels of the dungeon…

Safe to say, Rose was concerned… She did not know about Bjorn's rapid status increase so she was concerned…. Although she has a tough persona, this is just a shell due to the numerous results of experiencing the deaths of her assigned adventurers…

Because of this, Bjorn comforted her, saying that everything will be alright and to trust in him… It is the usual 'comforting', but strangely enough, it worked… Rose felt Bjorn's strong determination which made her believe in him…

Currently, our main character is on the 8th floor, fighting against a horde of killer ants… Yes… a horde… 

Strangely, the dungeon was exceptionally hostile towards Bjorn… Everywhere he went, the dungeon continually birthed monsters… The entrance of the dungeon? Tada! A Goblin Horde. As soon as he stepped out of the stairways? Tada! A fucking horde of monsters waiting for him.

It went to the point that he had forgotten to take numerous monster cores, because there were just so fucking numerous…

Honestly, the main resting point for him was the staircases… There, no monsters could be born… Yes, monsters can go through the stairs, but no monsters can be birthed out from it…

He did not know why this was the case, but he is just happy that there is one part of the dungeon which he can consider as a safe space… Bjorn is a simple man, he sits at the staircases, eating and drinking, whilst propping his cellphone to watch a downloaded drama….

Numerous adventurers that were going through the floors saw him… They knew that there were designated safe spaces throughout the floors of the dungeon but… this man in front of them is eating and drinking...… at the staircases of the dungeon… 

They do not know that if Bjorn went to these so-called safe spaces, monsters would also be born from it...….

Due to this…. Numerous adventurers dubbed him…. 'The Staircase Dweller'.........

He had also consulted this with his Goddess, Loki, and his assigned guild advisor, Rose… but they do not have any specific reason on why this is happening…

Loki joked that it was due to Bjorn's stench… so he washed the hell out of his body… the result? The horde increased...…..

But it was not a bad thing for Bjorn… Due to the hordes of monsters, he had become rich due to the numerous drops and monster cores! Honestly, he wanted to have a supporter so that the entirety of his loot was looted…

Furthermore, his status is skyrocketing… His strength and agility is now at the B level, with B820 and B862 respectively. Due to this, Loki was quite impressed with Bjorn… She gave numerous headpats to Bjorn every night... yes…. Just headpats… for now….

Going back. Bjorn is now facing numerous killer ants rushing towards him. His stance is his usual stance, both hands on his sword which is pointed downwards towards the right…

Bjorn was calm facing the 15 monsters rushing towards him… Their quaking approach does not bother him the slightest…. 

Once they were quite close to him, Bjorn stepped his left foot forward, lowered his stance, and raised his sword across his shoulder. 

[Burst]

Bjorn bursted towards the middle of the horde… He swung his sword towards his left, cutting enemies that came towards him. Due to this, 4 killer ants were immediately cut in half… 

Before any killer ants turned to face him, Bjorn immediately faced towards the right, he then adopted another ready stance.

[Burst]

Bjorn busted out of the killer ants formation. He was now outside of the killer ants encirclement. Along his path, a number of killer ants were also cut through their torso.

This is his way of cutting down the enemy's numbers… He continually dashes through the enemies, aiming to bring down the numbers into a manageable number.

Although the killer ants' carapace were sturdy, it was nothing in the face of Bjorn's sword with Burst.

Seeing that the killer ants were now down to 7, Bjorn decided to save some of his Mind and face them head on.

Bjorn steadied himself amidst the incoming monsters, like a rock standing tall and proud against the incoming tide.

Bjorn knew that the killer ants' carapace is so damn hard, so he aimed for their weak points. Bjorn stepped back with his left foot to dodge an incoming jumping ant. 

Seeing that another killer ant was jumping towards him, Bjorn immediately made a huge step backwards with his right foot towards the left, and at the same time slashing upward. This resulted in the killer ant being cut in half, from its underside…

The killer ant aimed to encircle Bjorn, but Bjorn thwarted their plans. 

[Burst]

Bjorn's Mind filled his sword and he spun around, slashing his sword, resulting in the 3 killer ants who jumped to be slashed in half.

Bjorn then immediately ducked down because a killer ant had managed to flank him. Bjorn reversed his grip on his sword, and stabbed backwards, resulting in the killer ant being skewered through its head.

Seeing that the remaining killer ant is rushing towards him with its arms raised, 

Bjorn wanted to change his stance, but his sword was caught by the jaw of the killer ant behind him… Surprisingly, it was still alive… 

[Burst]

Bjorn's mind filled his sword. With his sword still in reversed grip, he slashed through the underside of the ant behind him, unaliving him permanently, and eventually slashing the incoming killer ant's raised arms.

With his sword still in reverse grip, he stabbed the head of the killer ant. The killer ant, with Bjorn's sword still in its head, struggled vehemently… Bjorn doubled his handle on the sword, making it so that it stays in place until it dies… 

Bjorn… while the ant was struggling, came face-to-face with it… He looked at the numerous eyes of the ant, and noticed how hateful its eyes are… It was full of hate… and fear… but mostly hate… hate towards the humans? Maybe. Hate towards the heavens? Probably…. It probably hated the heavens since it was born as a monster… as a being whose only function is to kill...…..

Bjorn felt sorry… but this is a world of kill or be killed…. 

Eventually, the killer ant died… 

Bjorn sat down in order to rest… He had managed to cut down 10 waves of killer ants....He knew that this was the last wave for at least 15 minutes… 

You see, Bjorn counted the number of waves that the dungeon was sending him… After 10 waves of continuously killing, for some reason, the dungeon can't send another wave for 15 minutes….

To Bjorn, this time is precious. He used this time as a time for rest and a time for looting.

After a minute of resting, Bjorn stood up to loot the bodies of the numerous corpses of the killer ants….

He is quite happy with his gains for the day. Plus, the silence of his surroundings give Bjorn a rather strange comfort. 

He hums a song while still picking up the monster cores when suddenly…

"HELP! HELP! PLEASE!!!! HEEEEEEEELP!!!!"

"Ah… Fuck."
