(Demonic Forest)
Myra and Eba are sharing a tent with each other. They have had to use light magic since afternoon till midnight. Both of them are tired. But neither of them can sleep. Myra only remembers what happened two days ago. Until today, she has not felt the touch of a boy. Although Alex's touch was unwanted, this is the first time in Myra's life that a boy has touched her. Being the Duke's daughter, everyone dares not go near Myra, let alone talk about it. And Alex was lying on top of that Duke's daughter.
"What would Elin have done if she were in my place?"
Myra wondered what Elin would have done in her place. Of course she would have frozen Alex. Or something more terrible. But Myra wasn't like that. Being a simple girl, she didn't do anything that day.
"Why do these thoughts keep coming to my mind? Even though I don't want to think about them, these thoughts keep coming to my mind."
Myra's thoughts were suddenly interrupted by Eba's words.
-->>Well, if a person's thoughts keep coming to mind over and over again, what do we call that?
Eba's words suddenly surprised Maira. Eba didn't need to know that she was thinking about someone. So to hide her thoughts, she started saying,
-->>If you miss someone in your family or among your relatives again and again, then in the language of knowledge, it is called missing them.
-->>But what if it's not a family member or relative but a guy you know? (He asked again)
-->>A familiar boy! That too must be missed. (Myra)
-->>But if the boy is still there, and thousands of thoughts about him come to mind, what can we say about that?
Eba's question made Moira stop. Because that's what she was thinking. Somehow Eba must have understood her thoughts, so Moira didn't say anything. Eba, seeing Moira's silence, started saying,
-->>Nobles like us may not know this. Because marriage is arranged and gets done from a young age. However, I once heard my maid say. "If the thought of a boy without family ever comes to mind again and again, then that is a sign of love." (She said it very beautifully)
-->>Are you suddenly saying something like that? (Myra)
Myra thought that Eba seemed to understand her thoughts. But that wasn't the case. Eba started speaking her mind.
-->>I don't know why but I always remember one of my sons. Even though he is with me. (This is)
Myra is not a stupid girl. She understood the matter well. But she couldn't stop herself from thinking.
"So does she think about Alex? No, I'm not thinking about all this. She can think about it. Who am I to think about it? Uhhh I'm going crazy with these stupid thoughts."
Seeing Myra remain silent, Eba asked,
-->>Well, Myra, how do you like our team leader? I mean, what kind of person is he? What do you think? (This)
Suddenly, Moira felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart, even though she didn't want to, at Eba's question. Her feelings were playing with her. Her heart was pounding with excitement. Even though she didn't want to, her mind kept telling her not to let Alex's words come out of Eba's mouth.
-->>So you like our leader chain? (Myra's smiling question)
Eba didn't say anything. So Myra understood that he liked Chein. But then one thing came to her mind.
"Cheyenne likes Luba. Should I tell Eba this? Otherwise, she might get in trouble."
Myra thought about it. Suddenly, both of them fell silent. It didn't take them long to drift off to sleep.

(In the dungeon)
Alex is panting in a sweaty state. He is standing with his hands on his knees. His body's stamina is at the end. Alex has used many spells and skills. That's why his body is very tired. The more energy is used, the more his body's stamina decreases. At one point, his body becomes so weak that he wants to go to sleep. Alex's body also wants to sleep. But Alex knows that once he closes his eyes, he will not be able to open them again.
"Where did I end up? If I had known in advance, I would never have made this mistake. I ended up with a level 10 Earth Golem or Gluttony. But who would have thought that it wouldn't end here. I've used up all my energy to kill the level 12 Earth Golems. But even here, the dungeon isn't clearing."
As Alex's thoughts were about to end, ten more earth golems were created from the floor of the room. Alex's info skill was still active. He saw the level of this golem. The level of the golem was increasing by one number each time. This time, the ten golems were level 14. The previous ten golems were level 12. Alex's condition ended as he was killing them. Using Agility requires a lot of energy. Moreover, while killing ten level 12 golems, all the energy in Alex's ring was exhausted. By using the Gluttony skill, he was able to collect the energy of a level 10 golem. But that too was exhausted. Gluttony can be used once a day. That's why Alex is in a very tight spot. He doesn't have the energy to use either a skill or a spell. And at this time, a level 14 earth golem has formed in front of him.
Alex has discovered a secret of this dungeon while fighting with level 12 golems. There is a red circle in the room. The golems attack Alex when he enters it. But when Alex goes outside of it, the golems no longer attack him. Alex is standing outside the red circle, panting, leaning on his knees. He is standing. In such a situation, the fear of death would have been in anyone's eyes. But in this situation, Alex is smiling. A smile of great satisfaction is on his face.
-->>I'm really going crazy. Where there should be fear on my face, I'm smiling.
Alex's tiredness has subsided somewhat. He has spent about two hours in this dungeon. But during this time, he has become much stronger. Alex has reached level 21. All his stats have also increased a lot.
-->>Not bad, this is a very good place to increase my level. (Alex)
Alex said it out loud. His level has increased a lot. He has reached 21 straight from 15. He doesn't want to miss this opportunity. Because the more golems he kills, the more he will level up. For reaching level 20, he has received a reward. Which he has been waiting for.
-->>Status options.
Alex called out the name of his status option out loud. Immediately, a projection appeared in front of him, indicating his status.
Status:
Level: 21
Strength : 30
Vitality : 16
Agility : 33
Stamens : 25
Intelligence : 35
Luck : 12
Stat points: 20
Alex looked at his status options. He had been waiting for the stat point option for a long time. Since his life is like a game he created, he knows what it does. Stat points are basically points that can be added to other stats. For example, if there are 10 points in a stat, then it can be used for agility, vitality or any other stat. Any stat can be increased in this way without any training or level up.
Alex is not sure yet whether it will work or not. Because it will work a lot like cheating. Without any training, walking speed alone will never increase. But this method can be increased without any training.
Alex didn't waste time. He knew what he had to do. He had to use the points on other stats. So he increased his 20 stat points by 10 to his Agility, 5 to his Vitality, and the last 5 to his Strength.
Status options:
Level: 21
Strength : 35
Vitality : 21
Agility : 43
Stamens : 25
Intelligence : 35
Luck : 12
Stat points: 00
Alex looked at his new status. He didn't know if it would even work. But he could feel a tingling sensation in his body. It felt like something was crawling through his bones.
-->>It seems to be working. As far as I remember, I only get 5 stat points for a level up. So I have to use it properly. I really need my agility. Because I was able to figure out the weak point of the golem.
Alex was resting for a while. He had also taken a pill made by his mother, which was helping him gather energy. After gathering a lot of energy, he entered the red circle.
-->>Okay Golem, let's go to round three.

There may be mistakes. I will highlight them a little. And the episode has been shortened due to lack of time. If I want to make it longer, I will have to give a gap of one day. Even then, let me know how it went.
