Hour 2

I am capable of summoning a maximum of 299 monsters at a time. Since that is what the limited space allows. Five seconds. That's all I need to melt their bodies away. Likewise, if I want, I am capable of freezing them into place and shattering their frozen bodies like a small icicle falling from a rooftop. My powers are limitless. The only thing restraining me is my mind and body. If I so much as desire it I can tear all their bodies apart. If I wish to cut out the oxygen in the air, I can, if I’d like, I can control the earth to send spikes into their hearts. With my power, I can be anything. Lack of creativity is my only weakness. 

Hour 3

I moved on to the Orcs starting off with just one, testing out their strengths. Compared to the slim Trolls, the Orcs are much tougher. Imagining I need 30 mana to tear Trolls apart I would need at least triple that amount for the orcs. Yet again these monsters fall before me as I desire it. 30 minutes have gone by, and I can barely gain a level from killing all 299 orcs. If I consider the 40 minutes, I wasted killing the trolls over and over again. I've thrown away a lot of potential exp. However, I would like to witness the power of my unique skill. How fast do I learn compared to the norm? How fast do I adapt? What's the limit to the skill? Does it only affect my skills and personal talent? Or does it increase my experience? Is it possible to evolve my unique skill past rank SS? Is there a higher rank limited to my ability? Unique to me? Considering my level before I entered the dungeon I was following the same pace as the others while leveling up. So it's unlikely it affects the speed at which I level up. Since I was capable of learning the speed at which I get used to a skill it's clear that it makes it easier and faster to master skills. So it affects my talent, and because I can evolve the rank of my skills, unlike others it's a given that my skill affects my skills. However, if it's like my main skill which evolved, not its rank but the ability itself. Could it be the same for my unique skill? Could it make it easier to level up? That is what I want to know, I need to know whether I can level up even faster than others.

I see… A title and a newly created rank. I’ve received the answer I'm looking for. I no longer need to assess my strength. All that remains is to get stronger. I open the summoning setting and look over my potential enemies. Following the Orcs are Titans at B rank, Imperials at A rank, Dragons at S rank, and lastly Demi-Deities at SS rank. However, I'm worried, a thought that I can't get out of my mind. I created a new rank, and in this world balance is needed, if there is life there is death if there is riches there is poverty. It's like a coin; there are two sides to everything. In this case, one is good, and the other is evil. That's how our world works. A lack of balance leads to weak foundation, causing destruction. Therefore, creating a new rank in my world for the greater good may have also created a rank achievable by the monsters. Having lifted the bar limiting our strengths will in the end lead to casualties of the weak. However, for a little while I am the only mortal who is aware of this new rank therefore I have an advantage until the monsters reach SSS rank. I look once again at the summoning list and notice that with their title and rank comes a profile image, From what I can tell from the image the monster guarding the School is an imperial. And the two humanoid monsters are titans. I have two hours remaining and am currently level 33. After killing all the orcs and reaching level 30 the speed at which I level up has significantly reduced. I can only assume there is a very big difference in strength between the C ranks and B ranks. I've reached my goal of dominating the C rank Orcs. My new goal in the next two hours is to beat at least one imperial. I begin the summon, before me appears the familiar shape of the titan. The split second after summoning the monster I take a step back and attempt to rend it to shreds. Exhausting all of my strength, I am incapable of dealing any damage to the monster. In a split second it strikes me head on, I react by launching it across the room and into the wall opposing me. The monster on the ground slowly stands up with blood leaking from its head. Its male like figure pulls out two short swords. And attacks once again, this time moving from side to side, making it difficult to recognize which side it will attack from. Before it attacks it moves so fast I couldn't see him move, almost as if it had teleported behind me. I turn around and block both short swords by imbuing mana into my weapons and slashing them from the side. I then step back and throw a mana slash towards him, which he blocks. Thankfully he wasn't capable of stopping the full blow, slicing his right shoulder and left hip. I follow the attack with a flurry of slashes, using my matter manipulation skill to cut through his firm skin. Simultaneously imbuing my sword with mana and using my matter manipulation skill I Cut, slash, and shred it. Cutting it over and over again without stopping he falls to the ground and dies. Around his body is a pool of blood with splashes of blood on the walls from the violent flurry of attacks. From this I’ve received a notification, notifying me of 2 level ups. With the end of the battle, the body disappears through the air. Because of my newly upgraded unique skill my exp received has increased a lot. From killing 299 Orcs to level up once, to merely needing to kill a B rank titan and leveling up two times. I hastily establish all of my stats into both mana and intellect summoning a second Titan, this time recognizing its pattern I quickly attack, cutting its head off in a mere second. Naturally, it's much easier to slay monsters in here since I know exactly where they're going to spawn. Furthermore, I get to attack first since I am aware that they will show up. Whereas in the concrete world I wont possess that advantage. Although that doesn't matter for now since the sole thing, I need to focus on is leveling up and getting stronger. Killing the second titan I only level up once, It's much clearer now, everytime I level up it takes two times more experience then the previous to level up. Meaning it gets harder to level up the higher level I get. This time I summon two titans killing the first one in a mere seconde. Whereas the second titan takes more time, however, it doesn't matter since I am now used to fighting it. It feels as though I’ve fought it numerous times. In less then a minute I successfully tear his body to shreds ripping its limbs of followed by its head. The most effective strategy for killing the titans, for now, is to weaken there joints and slash them as deep as I can with my swords and matter manipulation and then ripping there weakened limbs off. Since there skin is tough and they have an extremely strong physic they are capable of withstanding all of my power if I attempt and rip them apart before hand. From what I can observe they are equally utilizing mana to strengthen their bodies. Just how I strengthen my sword and body with mana to run faster and hit harder. By weakening them, it makes it easier to slay them in one blow. Once again only leveling up once. I keep summoning only two until i’ve leveled up enough to slay them without needing to weaken them first, it takes about 45 minutes to do so. My strategy to execute them as fast as possible is to summon three of them, killing the first one by catching it off guard and cutting its head off. I then turn around and shred the second one to pieces, I then strike the last on with my swords. Most of the time they manage to block my attack or mitigate most of the damage, however that doesn't matter, since all I'm looking for is enough time to go by so I can shred the last one to pieces. It usually takes about 5 secondes for me to be able to regain enough mana back to be able to execute it in one blow. Each time I beat the summons it takes less and less mana to eliminate them. Meaning I don't need to wait five seconds to be able to kill them in one blow with my matter manipulation. I’ve tried a few techniques to try and slay them as fast as possible. Melting them is faster to kill them, however, if their mana is high enough they won't melt it will simply make them really warm. It's the same thing for the cold. Naturally if I use matter manipulation to melt a specific place like their hearts, it will be accelerated if they don't react fast enough. However, the sole issue is it still requires a split second to heat up. If they react fast enough, they can concentrate mana onto that spot and block it.

Therefore, it's overall much easier to just shred them since it's instant. About 20 minutes have gone by, and I am capable of killing five of them simultaneously before I need to wait five seconds to kill another 5. If I summon 10 titans, it takes about 10 seconds to execute all of them. I have 55 minutes left, it takes a lot more time then before to level up, I need to kill at least 500 of them to level up. If I summon 10 titans and it takes 10 seconds to kill them it would require almost 10 minutes to level up, then 20 and after 40. I don't have enough time. If I want to beat the imperial when I get out of here I must level up much more than three times. I summon 20 of them, slaying them over and over again each 5 seconds I kill 5 while doing so I kill as much as I possibly can up close with my mana imbued swords and mana slash. Once again using matter manipulation to shred 10 of them, not to kill them but to weaken them. Running past all of them, finishing them off one by one. Moving so fast they can't keep up. All 10, dead in seconds. Five remain, I concentrate all of my mana into mana slash up close so they can't dodge, two of them get their heads cut off whereas the others are fatally injured. Out of breath I make my last move finishing all 3 of them by slashing them across the chest and cutting their heads off. Out of breath I pant and take a second to recover my breath and go once more. Over and over again, doing the same thing without stopping, Until I can beat all 20 of them without needing a break in between and then I summon an extra 10. Over and over again, I do the same thing without end. Adding 10 each time I don't need to snatch my breath in between fights. 30 minutes, I can summon 100, killing them off and not being out of breath. In the last 30 minutes I realized that each time I'm out of breath, I become less out of breath the next time. It must be due to the adaptation/evolution skill. I keep doing so for another 15 minutes before taking a break. I sit down and look at the progress I’ve made in the past 45 minutes. I’ve leveled up five times. Although I wanted to do better I did get more than 3 so it's good enough for now. I’m currently level 40; I pick up my swords and stand up, In a fighting stance I summon the imperial. My heart beating out of my chest, unlike the other monsters I experience flashbacks of the monster. Cold heartedly murdering my school bully in front of me I can't get that image out of my head. I don't want to experience the same fate as him. I want better, I need better. Unlike him… I won't die.
