Floor 11
So, I descended further to the 11th floor.
There wasn't anything special on the 10th floor, so I finished the exploration quickly. I thought there might be treasure chests since there was a strong boss, but there was really nothing. Everywhere was just buzzing with giant flies, and that ti turned out to be completely in vain.
Oh, by the way, about the Fire Wand from earlier, I attached it using a simple but reinforced arm chanism under my chest. So now, I can shoot flas without holding it. Hehehe, shooting flas from my chest, just like a super robot.
But to be precise, there's an arm base wrapped around the right lower chest with the wand, and the arm stored under the left lower chest extends to the front of the body only when it's ti to shoot. So, it's more like a Right Lower Chest Fire than a Breast Fire. In any case, it was a good modification as it increased convenience and attack power.
As I was thinking about such things, monsters from the 11th underground floor appeared from the passage continuing beyond the stairs.
Tall and entirely dark gray, walking upright on long limbs like a human. When it lifted its face, previously bowed as if shrugging its shoulders, that face looked just like a bat.
"Huh, what's that thing? Ha Could it be!?"
[Kyuwaan Bun!]
Imdiately, I created rock salt in my hand with the skill [Salt] and threw it at the bat-like monster with a fast fastball.
[Bissu! Bofun!]
The bat-like monster, pierced in the chest with rock salt from a distance, turned into smoke and disappeared.
"As I thought! I see"
It'll die from a one-shot attack with salt that possesses the holy attribute. Moreover, considering the monster's appearance, like a bat, there's only one other creature that cos to mind. Yes, a vampire.
Speaking of vampires, they are high-ranking among undead monsters. They have many weaknesses, but in favorable conditions, they are exceptionally strong. However, the monster from earlier disappeared with a single shot of salt. From that ugly bat-like appearance, I guessed it might be a lower-level Lesser Vampire rather than a high-ranking one.
(Anyway, even if the opponent is a vampire, it should still be quite formidable. For example, charm, hypnosis, and yes, it might co with bloodsucking and energy drain.)
Alright, the decision was made.
No lee on the 11th floor. Defeat everything with long-range salt attacks. Since I'm alone, if I get chard, hypnotized, or drained of blood, it's ga over. Yeah, it's even dangerous to get close.
Let's go with search and destroy.
[Chiraa Jyupaan!]
[Furari Zudomo!]
[Hekoheko Bijyu!]
Sharpening my perception to the maximum, I sensed the presence of monsters and imdiately held my breath on the spot. Then, as the Lesser Vampires showed themselves from the passage, I sealed them all with a single throw of rock salt.
At this point, it's easy to let my guard down and think, [Actually, Lesser Vampires aren't that big of a deal], but I don't make such mistakes. That's because I, who have fought alone until now, can be called a true professional.
If I were to compare, I'd be like a world-class sniper in a white suit with thick eyebrows, coldly knocking down Lesser Vampires into hell.
[Bofun! (Korori)]
Hmm, what's that?
After the Lesser Vampire turned into smoke, there was a skill orb rolling there. I thought it would only drop strange things like magic stones and curly hairs, but finally, an orb dropped.
Let's pick up the skill orb and analyze what kind of skill it is.
"Let's go, Aura Vision wide open! Psychotry! (Kyumamamama!)"
Let explain. By connecting with the red sli that returned as my left foot through the aura, I realized new possibilities of aura. The mysterious abilities possessed by people are commonly known as psychic powers.
I understood that all of them are manifestations and phenona of the power of aura.
In other words, even without skills, if I master how to handle the aura, I can reproduce sothing akin to psychic powers to so extent. For example, the information I've been vaguely feeling from skill orbs until now if I understand, and use it with psychotry powered by aura, like this
"(Kyumamamama) Phew, got it! The skill of this orb is [Charm]!"
[Kyuapawawa!]

"Heh as expected. Quite the vulgar skill, typical of a vampire Hmph!"
Despite uttering such words, I was driven by the desire to level up this enchanting skill, [Charm]. So, I continued to wander through the 11th underground floor in search of new prey.
