"3000 Hmmmm..," Asher saw that he had gained 3000 XP for all the Rockeaters he had killed till now. It seemed that F-Rank monsters only gave him around 200 Exp.
'I can farm more,' he thought as he entered the second cave. It was filled with normal mana glowstones, but it wasn't the cave where the mana stone mine was located. This cave wasn't as deep as the previous one.
"Not this one," he muttered, but he still went in to clear it.
*Munch* *Munch*
The sounds of Rockeaters eating the rocks echoed throughout the cave. Asher saw two Peak F-Rank Rockeaters who turned their dark black eyes to at his directions. These two were Peak F Rank Rockeaters and their eyes were their distinctive features. Mid F Rank Rockeaters did not have a fully black eye.
*Slash*
With a swift dash and slash, he cut one Rockeater in half and then crouched to slash the stomach of the other. Although his fighting style appeared cruel, it was what made him so dangerous.

Asher received 200 XP for each Rockeater he defeated. Despite using some of his mana for his dash and attack, his Mana Flow skill reduced the mana usage and maximized output.
"GRgrgrgrgrgrg"
"Grghgrhggrgrr"
Hearing the sounds of his sword and commotion he made, nearby Rockeaters started coming out towards his direction.
"Let's finish this quickly," Asher said as he bended his knee before he dashed further inside.
Using the mana circulation technique during all this required lot of focus and Asher was still adapting to it. His sword moved like a wave and as he kept killing the Rockeaters that appeared. The Rockeaters only had sharp claws and teeth as weapons, making them easy targets for Asher.

Asher received multiple notifications for the XP he acquired, but he ignored them as he focused on his movements. He quickly cleared out this cave and moved to the next one which was a bit far from this cave and this one was also not the one he was looking for.
Asher still went inside to kill a few F+ and F Rank Rockeaters that were present in their. He didn't bother putting their corpses into his storage ring, as the guards outside the portal could handle it.

In about 55 minutes, Asher had cleared eight caves and killed over 100 Rockeaters. He was now resting on a rock outside the ninth cave he was about to enter. Some of the previous caves had 10 or fewer Rockeaters scattered deeply, so Asher had to spend some of his mana and time to find them.
Although he could have easily skipped them, he had a completionist mindset and didn't like leaving things unfinished. If he started something, he made sure to complete it fully.
*Gulp*
Asher drank some energy drinks from his storage ring. Although he could have used a mana potion to instantly regain his lost mana, he preferred doing it through the new mana circulation technique that Nathan had taught him. With plenty of time and no rush, a simple rest was preferable for him.
"Status," Asher said, as he stored the energy drinks back into his ring.

"Level 10, is not too far," Asher said as he jumped off the rock and looked at the entrance of the ninth cave. He stretched his legs and cracked his neck and went inside.
"Found it," Asher looked around and saw various pathways that went somewhere deep into the cave.
This cave had many mana crystals which were refined into mana stones for commercial use. The entrance was dark but after going a bit inside, he could see brightly glowing mana crystals which were hanging on the ceilings, to the side of the walls.
He went into the centermost path and noticed the glowing mana crystals around him. This was the gold mine that previously was in the hands of the Williams Family but now he was possesing it. Preventing Nathan's death and preventing the economic downfall of the Greville family completely changed how the events played out in the previous timeline.
Asher walked in for 10 more minutes as this cave was very vaste. Not a single Rockeater was present here. It was because the dungeon boss was present in this cave. From their nature Rockeater avoided the strongest among them, that was the boss of this dungeon and no Rockeater would be present in his territory.
He arrived at another junction in the cave where every paths that he found at the entrance seemed to met. He saw a single entrance in front of him and he knew that this was where the boss and dungeon altar would be present.
Dungeon Altar was where the first clear reward of dungeon was present. It could be an item or a artificats but low rank dungeons did not give any worthwhile items or artificats. Only Rank A Dungeons were the one where decent or auctionable artificats were found.
"GRRGGRRRRRRRRR" A creepy noise could be heard as Asher went in.
As Asher cautiously crept deeper into the cave, his face was indifferent and his focus was high. The towering walls seemed to close in on him, and the eerie silence was only interrupted by the soft crunching of his footsteps on the jagged stone floor.
Suddenly, a putrid stench filled the air, and Asher's grip on his sword tightened as he prepared for the inevitable confrontation. In the distance, he saw a massive silhouette, its blue glowing eyes piercing the darkness like beacons.
As he drew closer, the full terror of the situation became clear - there, in the center of the cavernous arena, sat a 3-foot tall monster, its brown fur bristling, its sharp claws clacking together hungrily. The Rockeater Boss was ravenously devouring the sparkling mana crystals scattered about it, its razor-sharp teeth crunching loudly in the stillness.
The Rockeater Boss was an E+ Rank boss monster, more powerful than Asher, who was currently at F- Rank and close to achieving F Rank. The creature's gaze met Asher's, and the air was filled with a deafening growl as it rose to its full height.
"ROOARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!" the boss monster roared loudly and launched a claw strike towards Asher.
Asher sidestepped and made a cut on the Rockeater Boss's hand. The boss groaned in pain, but Asher did not give him enough time and attacked again, focusing on using his new sword style to move around the boss. Due to the height difference, Asher had an easier time dodging the boss, but the damage he was doing was still not enough to stagger the boss.
"ARRGGGRGRGRGRGG," the boss growled and struck at Asher with his claws.
*Bam*
Asher dodged the attack and the claws made a massive sound as they clashed with the walls. Asher swiftly moved around the boss and slashed a few more times, using the boss as an experiment to hone his sword skills. The boss was enraged, and his eyes were shining red. He picked up chunks of rock and started throwing them at Asher, who was running all over the place dodging them.
The Rockeater Boss's mana enveloped his claws, increasing his speed. Asher used his sword to deflect the rocks, but the boss threw another rock at him. Asher used it as a smokescreen and dashed past its trajectory, using a burst of mana around his legs.
The Boss was surprised to see Asher close to his chest region. The Rockeater Boss was moving his claws to strike Asher, but Asher was already near his chest.
"Pierce," Asher muttered as a small coating of mana enveloped his sword, piercing the chest of the Rockeater Boss. He immediately dragged the sword diagonally, cutting the head of the boss into two pieces.
