“Hmm… This is working just as calculated. Let’s wait for a minute and see if my mana recovery rate increases to 1.2

“Hehehehe… Hahahahaha!” Leon laughed loudly, his eyes glued to the screen.
In just 6 minutes, Leon’s mana touched its maximum capacity. No matter how many skills he used after that, his mana regenerated in just a few seconds.
“I’m like a fucking mana battery now.” He shouted loudly “And I should stop saying that before some crazy mage traps me and makes me his test subject, Leon muttered, quickly exiting the forest and heading toward the kingdom with a wide smile on his face.

“Fucking hell, it’s freezing..” Leon grumbled, activating his skill.
< Adaptive Body>
[Raising Host’s Body Temperature]
[Increasing Blood Flow]
[Adapting to Cold]
Suddenly, warmth rushed through his body, pushing away the cold instantly.
“This skill is really good. I have to start using it more,” Leon said with a smirk as he entered the kingdom.
“Hello, Sir! Would you like to buy a hat? It’ll save you from the snow!”
“Buy some fresh apples!”
“If you want to become strong, drink some milk!”
“Buy tight ropes, Sir!”
The market was bustling with life. Vendors shouting, people walking around, and students of different magic schools were heading toward their academies.
Cleaners were sweeping snow off the roads with wooden tools. As Leon walked through the market, something made him stop.
A blacksmith’s shop stood at the corner. A massive hammer-shaped board hung above it, labeled: ‘DEKKN’S SMITHY:
‘I still have that Dungeon Core… Didn’t I ?’ Leon thought with a smile as he walked up to the gate and knocked.
Knock-Knock
Click
The gate creaked open but no one in sight.
“Who open-“
Before he could finish, a deep voice interrupted him.
“What do you want, Human kid ?”
Leon looked down, surprised. A stout man, barely four feet tall, stood behind the gate.
Long red hair, face hidden behind a thick beard, muscular arms, and a giant hammer resting casually in one hand.
‘Wait… Isn’t he a dwarf?’ Leon wondered with a confused expression.
“Hello… Can you make a weapon for me?” Leon asked, eyeing the dwarf.
“Come in and close the door behind you. I don’t want rats roaming in my shop.” the dwarf grunted, turning around.
“Okay…” Leon replied quietly as he stepped inside and closed the doors behind him.
The shop was dimly lit, cluttered with scattered metals and half-finished weapons. Racks lined the walls, and a massive furnace roared beside an anvil, flooding the room with warmth.
“So… what kind of weapon do you want?” the dwarf asked as he placed the hammer on the table, his expression unreadable.
“Umm… I have this. Can you make a magical sword out of it?” Leon pulled out the F-rank Dungeon Core and gave it to him.
The dwarf took it, barely sparing it a glance.
“Yeah, I can make a letter opener with this, he spoke immediately as he tossed it back to leon.
*Catch*
“What?” Leon blinked, confused as he caught the core.
“This core is useless, kid. My weapon making cost is 10 silvers per weapon, and you can buy a good F-rank sword from some human blacksmith for 3-4 silvers.
Sell this core to the guild for 2 or more silvers and buy yourself a decent weapon. Come to me only when you have a D-rank or higher core.
When I heat this thing, it’ll shrink to the size of a ring’s gemstone. Maybe you can throw it on the ground and make a dungeon out of it… Hahaha. Now get out,” the dwarf laughed, dismissing Leon.
Leon exited the shop, walking aimlessly… Some thoughts swirling in his mind.
‘Make a dungeon out of it…? Wait… I never thought of that.
If a dungeon core holds a dungeon together… doesn’t that mean I can create a new one?”
I just need to learn how a dungeon core works and If I can really make a dungeon… damn.
I can buy MILF slaves and keep them there… Then I can start a buisness there and make some money! Leon thought as a smile spread across his face.
There’s only one place in this kingdom that can give me information on dungeon cores and that is…
The Helix Library.
Leon thought as he immediately turned around and started walking towards the Helix Library that was situated in the middle of the Human kingdom.
