Upon entering the dungeon, we all looked around in awe at the strange landscape in front of us. Tall trees with colorful leaves, along with mushrooms taller than my head. "Faith, what kind of monsters should we expect to be facing here?"
"Plants…." Runa had told me that this place was filled with plant monsters, and it was hard to distinguish them from the regular plants and the ones that were monsters. But from what I was told, the plants here were on a high level, so I can hopefully get some experience myself.
One thing I hate about leveling is that I never get any experience points for monsters of a lower level. It is annoying since there are not many high level monsters to fight. While we have run into some strong monsters, things are now different due to my level. I can only hope the bosses will give me something at the very least on our first few run throughs.
"Plants!?" Adel seemed shocked, but then confusion filled her face as she began looking around. "Umm… Where is Grace?"
"I only said it would be the few of us. Grace is helping take care of things back at the capital with Freidinia. She is also now connected to me, so her level will also rise. Did you not realize she is much more powerful now?" I asked, which caused the girls to all frown.
"No fair! Why does Grace get it easy while we suffer? Quick turn me into your slave too!" Sei yelled out. She was always one to try to find the easy way out of things. She was also the one who slept in the most!
"No, go. Plus, if I did, I would probably make your work like a horse since all you do is laze around." I replied while sticking my tongue out at her.
"Then never mind. I have a feeling you would do such a thing!" Sei quickly retreated, causing us all to laugh.
"Getting back on point. The plants here are dangerous right now. I can see three, and they are all level 500." Sadly they were too low level for me to even be considered worth wild for me to gain experience from, but there was nothing I could do about that. The reason why I picked this dungeon in the first place was because of one thing I heard from Runa. The level of the dungeon seems to be based on party mid point. So with the girls in the level 100s and me at level 1000 plus, this means the mid point would be closer to their levels as I am the only one here at a high level. This is why I can say that we can run this multiple times. Because eventually, the mid point will get to a spot where I can start gaining experience as well.
Although this is all well and good for us all, there is one person who is actually slacking but complaining about not having a vacation, and that was my father in law who is now stuck running the empire for me.
I did say that he would need to do such things while I was gone. Luckily if anything happens because he is in team he can tell me right away. He will be getting free experience as well. But because he can tell me what is going on quickly, I can rest assured that I can appear there when needed and summon everyone back in under a minute with my dimensional transfer. I have checked, and my skill does work in this dungeon.
"What level five hundred!?" Sophie cried out. She seemed slightly frightened since her face paled a little.
"Don't worry. This is why I am here. For the time being, I will be helping you through the dungeon killing things. This is called power leveling. I will power level you all until you are able to fight on your own. But as we raise in level, the monsters will also become harder as well, so we have to be careful." Power leveling was invented in MMORPGs back on Earth. It was when you have a higher level tow you along and kill higher level monster for you to leech experience from. It allowed lower levels to level quickly.
"Oh…." Sophie nodded and let out a small sigh of relief. I think she was trying to hide the sigh, but I still heard it.
At any rate, the monsters in this dungeon were not all that hard from what I heard, at least the ones on the first floor. The second floor monsters were a bit harder, but that seems to be a trend for this dungeon. Although Runa did say that this dungeon had many floors and she was unsure what the floors were like past the fourth one since her people had yet to reach that level.
"Stay here. I will go see if I can round up a bunch of monsters." The key to a proper power leveling session was to round up as many monsters as possible and then kill them all! So with a wave of my hand, I put up a barrier around the girls, who were very confused at this moment, and took off to gather as many monsters as possible.
Luckily even though I was a higher level, these monsters were not shy about attacking me, but I did find something a little annoying. About half of them were rooted in place. Making it hard for them to chase after me. This was not what I really wanted, but this was not too bad. I still gathered up a hundred or so monsters all around level 400 to level 600. I then returned to where the girls were and cast an area of effect fire spell called: ring of fire. The monsters all caught on fire and died within a few seconds. With this, the power leveling session was underway!
