[System Notification]
You have entered a Hidden One-Time Dungeon: "The Tomb of Endless Hunt"
Duration Remaining: 6 Days, 23 Hours, 58 Minutes.
[Exit Permanently Sealed Until Countdown Ends]
The crypt's rotten air oozed a heavy silence. Dark, jagged walls stretched endlessly. Faint echoes of movement crawled beneath the ground.
Shoyo cracked his neck. "Tch. One week in this damn place... I better come out jacked."
With a smirk, he darted into the abyss.
Inside the pitch-black maw of the Tomb, time dissolved into pure motion.
No days. No nights. Only the echo of shredded muscle, cracking bones, and splattered blood.
Sho's smirk never faded.
His eyes gleamed with purpose.
⚔️ [Day 1 – Endless Waves Begin]
The first wave hit fast—shadowed mobs with corrupted bodies. No mana signatures, just twisted, mindless hunger.
He dashed forward, quick-stepping into the shadows. His dagger, Null Fang, hummed with thirst. The first enemy—an undead knight—swung its rusted sword.
Shing! Null Fang split through it with ease.
[Bloodlust Rush: 1 stack (10%STR)
(AGI +5%)]
[Current Stacks: 1/5]
[Blood Absorbed – +2 STR gained]
[Level Up – Lv. 11 → Lv. 12]
Sho spun, weaving between attacks like mist. His Agility stat was climbing fast. His targets? STR and AGI—raw power and speed.
A bigger brute lunged. Sho ducked low—Quick Step: Auto Dash activated, warping him inches behind.
He swept its legs, stabbed upward—Heartstab.
"…Nice."
That night, Sho shoved his way into a crack in the tomb ceiling, tucked into the stony gap, and chomped on dry jerky.
No rest but survival. His body ached, but his eyes glowed sharp.
⚔️[Day 2]
The tomb grew darker. Larger mobs came in waves—Living Iron Juggernauts, Black Eyeless Hounds, and something called a Screaming Spinal Wretch. Sho took them all.
In every fight, Null Fang drank deeply.
> [Blood Absorbed – +5 STR gained]
[Bloodlust Rush: 2 stacks]
+10% STR, +10% AGI (Duration refreshed)
[Level Up – Lv. 14 → Lv. 15]
Sho's fingers twitched. His motion response was getting tighter. Sound split around him as he moved.
[Blood Absorbed – +3 AGI gained]
[Bloodlust Rush: 3 stacks]
+15% STR, +15% AGI (Duration refreshed)
[Level Up – Lv. 15 → Lv. 16]
His breathing? Calm.
Eyes? Predatory.
Clothes? Still the dusty hoodie—but it wouldn't be for long.
🔥 [Day 3 ]
Beast-type elites entered the fray—minotaur-like horned berserkers and pantheric stalkers that moved unnervingly quiet.
Sho wasn't fazed.
He welcomed the pain.
BOOM!
The horned beast smashed a wall—Sho blurred behind its neck, Untraceable active.
"Too slow."
SLICE.
Blood sprayed. His stat bar surged again.
[Bloodlust Rush: 3 stacks]
+15% STR, +15% AGI (Duration refreshed)
[Level Up – Lv. 16 → Lv. 17]
He kited a group of stalkers into a tunnel, bottlenecked them—slaughtered them one by one with pinpoint counters.
His Enhanced Senses tracked every heartbeat, every hostile twitch.
Sho chuckled, shirt soaked in sweat and blood. "You all smell like free stats."
⚔️[Day 4]
Rare-type mobs started appearing. Their stat pools were greater. Their blood... richer.
A beast room dropped four Ghosthounds and a Reaver Crawler. Sho didn't blink. He danced between them, letting instinct take over. Bloodlust Rush stacked high, feeding his momentum.
[Blood Absorbed – +7 STR | +2 AGI]
[Level Up – Lv. 17 → Lv. 18]
By now, he only rested by crawling into a cracked ceiling. Sho didn't sleep in safety—he made safety.
He visited a hidden mana pool once, just to wash off the gore.
(Note: Mana still doesn't work on him.)
Sho grinned.
"This tomb's my gym."
🩸 [Day 5 ]
Sho blitzed through corridors stacked with undead knights. Their armored forms stood little chance.
SWOOSH—CRACK!
A critical strike caved in a helmet—x20 Crit Multiplier triggered (HP < 50%)
[BLOOD ABSORBED— STR +3, AGI +4]
He danced between blades, never still—Instinctive Evasion triggered at every swing.
[BLOOD ABSORBED— STR +4, AGI +4]
[DING! Level Up!]
Level: 19
Another.
[Level Up!]
Level: 20
Still not enough.
Sho stared at his stat screen briefly while chewing dried meat on a stone—

"…Heh. +1 pending?.. whats that??..."
Suddenly—
A Black Crypt Minotaur—a massive undead creature, easily twice his size. Sho baited its charge, flipped over its horns, and stabbed Null Fang into its heart.
> [Blood Absorbed – +6 STR | +2 AGI]
[Level Up – Lv. 21]
Thud. Another monster gone.

⚔️[Day 7 – Final Hour]⚔️
Sho entered a vast chamber. The boss was waiting: Bonehowler Alpha. A mutated werebeast hybrid, glowing with hate.
The battle raged. Sho triggered Predator's Veil mid-dash.
[Predator's Veil Activated]
[+25% Surprise Damage | +10% Movement Speed]
Dodging, bleeding, striking—Sho moved like a blur. Null Fang severed the beast's neck in a clean arc, But Still the beast has not fallen yet.
He charged.
[PREDATOR'S VEIL — HUNT MODE TRIGGERED]
[Flash Step]
— Flickered behind the beast, slashed the spine.
The boss howled, countered with its tail—but Sho was gone again. Another Flash Step. Then another.
Then—
[Null Fang — HEARTSTAB!]
Sho plunged the blade into the glowing core on its chest. The beast spasmed. Roared. Shattered.

He emerged.
"Hhmm... I expected more."
Sho tilted his head, eyes scanning the fading corpse.
"Was it too weak... or did I get way stronger without noticing?"
He chuckled to himself. "Guess grinding does pay off."
System Panel (Post-Tomb)
After limping out of the final hallway, Sho heard the chime.

Sho stepped into the sunlight as the tomb crumbled into dust behind him.
He stretched.
The light revealed a completely different Sho—V-taper physique, lean muscle, dressed in elite hunter's gear. His aura pulsed like a dormant predator.
"Smells outside still better," he muttered.
He looked down at the new system panel.
Sho stretched lightly, eyes squinting at the sky.
"Smells outside still better."
His stomach grumbled.
"Ughhh. I can't wait to eat Earth food…"
Sho vanished, cloaking himself in Predator's Veil.
Time to go home.
