AN: Back with another chapter everyone. Let me know if you think I am developing some of the characters too fast or too slow. To me I am going as slow as possible in character development. Honestly not much has changed with every character so far from when I introduced them. Other than of course Percy being much different due to his mental age. Also I love your enthusiasm Bigmo312 3. By the time percy reaches CHB I will have confirmed a few of the harem. The harem will probably only be 3-5 girls for the sake of story complexity. I just wanted to give everyone a heads up. Due to changes discord is putting in place I will be attempting to migrate my community to Guilded. I will be putting the gilded link in both discord and in the description of my profile on FFN. I apologize if that inconveniences any of you.
The changes discord are making, if you were not aware, is that they can ban you for ANYTHING you do outside of discord. This will be taking effect at the end of march. Meaning that if you make an instagram or facebook post, a tweet, a youtube video, a tiktok, ANYTHING like that, and you are reported to discord you can be banned. Of course it all depends if you are someone who does not agree with mainstream media, as that is who these rules are made to target. The gist is you do anything outside of discord that discord does not like, you are banned. If you want more in depth information TheQuartering did a video on it.

Last Time~
The skeletons were much weaker than me, despite being higher level. I wonder if what stat points you get for a level up depends on your species.. Anyways, I counted 25 skeletons in this one room. And if that was the same in every room I saw… I couldn't stop from smiling. I was going to level up a lot in this dungeon. Just by the sheer volume of enemies. I pulled my katana out of my inventory and slung the sheath over my back. I stepped into the light, ready for a slaughter.
Now~
I leapt from my spot, swinging my katana horizontally and slicing through the neck of the closest skeleton. As its head rolled across the floor I willed my powers to make it dissolve and deposit any loot in my inventory. Immediately upon the thought appearing in my head the skeleton dissolved into white dust that flew towards me.
You have killed a skeleton warrior and gained 300 EXP and $55!
I smiled at the skeletons who stared at me for a few moments before they clacked their jaws angrily and charged me. I blocked a spear and slammed my armored shoe into the sternum of another skeleton, shattering the ribcage and cracking its spine. It crumbled to the ground and slowly started dissolving. So their spine is the weak point. I guess because it is the only thing keeping them together besides whatever magic is knitting their bones. I thought to myself as I threw the skeleton I was blade locked with away. I bent backwards as a spear passed over my chest, only missing me by an inch. I kicked up with one foot knocking the spear out of the skeleton's hand and backflipped into a standing position. I placed both hands on my sword and slashed through both a skeleton and its sword. Another threw its shield at me which I dodged. Spinning around rapidly I sliced through the waists of three more skeletons surrounding me. It was extremely easy to get the one hit kill spots on these monsters, once reason being the fact that they are literal skeletons with no skin and muscles protecting them. The second reason being their weak spot was literally their entire spine, as that must have been where a large majority of magic was centered, desperately trying to keep the skeletons from falling apart.
The Subskill [Japanese Swordplay- Katana] has hit level 2! It now gives +10% damage when in use.
It was exhilarating being in a real fight again. As much as it scared me, I felt free when in the heat of battle. The adrenaline pumping through me as I danced my way around these skeletons, completely untouchable to their extremely lackluster skills, it was an indescribable feeling. I just imagined these skeletons as every one of my future enemies, every time I shattered a skeleton's bones I conquered another obstacle, decimated another one of the people trying to hurt the ones I cared about. It only took two minutes, but I had killed all 25 skeletons in the room. Immediately after their defeat a chest appeared in the middle of the room.

I was pretty satisfied with my rewards. The items were awful but the money I got and the experience was well worth it. Now, what the hell is this? I thought to myself moving towards the strange wooden chest that had appeared in the center of the room. I slowly opened it and a bright light flashed for a second, blinding me. When my vision cleared I saw a new notification.
Your luck has activated, enhancing the loot of this dungeon chest!
After dismissing the notification I saw three items inside. One was a black trench coat, the second was a necklace, and the third was earring. I pulled out the trench coat and examined it. It was probably about five feet from top to bottom. Way too big for my current size. I used God's Eye on it to get some information on it.
[Night's Embrace]
Grade- Rare
A trench coat seems to be made out of darkness itself. In reality it was created by a master enchanter and sorcerer for an assassin child of Apollo. Despite the demigod's parent being the god of the sun, he had no love for the day, instead spending his nights prowling the rooftops of medieval buildings, taking out targets he was hired to kill. While the demigod's name was lost to time, this trench coat has not.
Enchantments- Presence masking(Makes it harder for people to track your aura and scent), Defense Enhance(Enhances Defense), Quintuple Durability(Multiplies durability by 5), Size Changing(conforms to the wearer so it always fits perfectly)
Locational Defense- 5,000, Durability 25,00025,000(Anything under 500 Damage will have no effect on this item, anything over 25,000 damage will lower the durability immensely) Weight: 3Lbs
This. Was. SICK. Trench coats were badass to begin with but this just blows any others out of the water. Immediately I threw it over my shoulders and watched in amazement as it shrunk to fit my body perfectly. I did a few stretches and movements to get a feel of it. The lower part flared out somewhat when I ran, which is to be expected, but it didn't hinder my movements whatsoever. I turned back to the chest and picked up the necklace. It was silver, with a chain of a bronze metal. The silver piece was in the shape of a half eaten apple.
[Caster's Supplement]
Grade- Uncommon
This Silver and celestial bronze necklace was dipped in the juice of a golden apple guarded by ladon, giving it incredible powers. It grant's the wearer +5% mana regeneration per minute, as well as +2% Health regeneration per minute.
Enchantments- Moderate mana regeneration, Minor health regeneration
Durability- 10,000/10,000 Weight: 0Lbs
A decent item. Only an uncommon item but the enchantments make it something even a god could benefit from. While I myself could use it, I already had a relatively easy way to up my own mana and health regeneration. I bet Sasha could use it. I threw it into my inventory and picked up the earring. It was golden, with a trident hanging off the part that goes into your ear.
[Ocean's Embrace]
Grade- Uncommon
This item was created by a man who fell in love with a mermaid. He spent his entire life studying magic, and building his small amount of mana to create an artifact that could let him be with his beloved. Near the end of his life he finally achieved his goal, spending the last few years he had left with the love of his life. After his death his lover kept the earring, eventually giving it to a passing sailor many years later. How it ended up in this dungeon is anyone's guess.
Enchantments- Water Breathing, Durability enhance(Makes it so the body's crush depth is 3 times deeper. Current depth is 1,500 meters)
Durability 500/500, Weight: 0Lbs
I smiled. Another good gift for sasha. Now I could take her underwater. The resistance of water would be amazing to improve strength. It does not affect me all that much, unless I dive super far into the water. This tiny earring giving anyone that wears it the ability to dive down over a kilometer without any issues is astonishing. Especially since it was created by a mortal as far as I can tell. Then an Idea hit me. I had no clue where I would have Sasha stay while I was at camp. This earring provided the perfect solution. I just had to get the naiads to keep quiet about her existence. I could probably use the cave I found with Annabeth to make a place for her to stay. I tossed the earring into my inventory and headed back into the main hall. I looked around and noted down the other hallways that appeared in the walls. There were a total of 3 more. Which meant even more loot. Grinning, I delved into the next hallway.
5 Minutes later~
"Shit, Shit, shit, shit!" I cursed, trying my best to weave in between the enemies I fought. Judging by the last room it would be a piece of cake right? WRONG! This room was probably about twice the size of the last one, with about twenty massive things called skeleton brutes. They were pretty giant skeletons. They were human skeletons, just about 9 feet tall. The weak point was the same, it just took A LOT more force to actually break their spines, since it was about twice as thick as a normal skeleton's spine and the majority of them wore chest plates.

"Shit why do I never think things through when it comes to situations like this!" I screamed in frustration and ducked under a super large axe that would have decapitated me. My stamina was starting to take a dip from all this running around. I skidded to a stop as a club landed in the spot I was in previously. Before the monster could lift up the club I leapt onto it and started running up its massive body. It only took two leaps before I was on its shoulders. I yelled and stabbed my katana straight through the top of it's skull and into its spine, shattering it into dust. I jumped off the massive breastplate of the skeleton and did a roll on the ground.
You have killed a Skeleton Brute and gained 450 Exp and $150!
I pushed the notification away and took a look at my stamina.
Stamina- 137/170
I clicked my tongue in frustration. I had wasted too much energy on running away. At least once I stop fighting it will regenerate in a few minutes.
I put the katana sheath on my back and charged at the remaining 19 skeletons. Somehow they roared and returned the charge. I leapt over a low swing of a club which proceeded to shatter the leg of another skeleton. I stabbed mysword into the sternum of a skeleton in front of me and used it to vault over its head. I ripped my katana out of the front and used it to slice the skeleton's spine in half vertically, causing it to immediately disintegrate. I barely dodged an axe as I landed, causing me to lose my balance and fall on my ass. I yelped as a club came towards me and I immediately rolled out of the way. I could literally feel my stamina lowering as I fought on. Shit if I don't end this in a bit I might end up losing. My coat will probably block most of the direct damage form the axes and clubs, doesn't mean that getting thrown across a room wouldn't hurt like a bitch though. I thought to myself and sliced off the hand of another skeleton before putting as much force into a swing as possible, cutting said monster clean in half.
This whole fight was definitely many times harder than fighting the skeleton warriors. Although it was quite funny to see the massive skeletons hitting each other when they missed me. I really do not know how long it took to finish all of them off. But I was sweating like crazy by the time it ended. I sat down against the chest that appeared in the middle of the room and leaned my head against it. I drew some water from my inventory, drank a bit and threw the rest on me. What popped up next made my eye twitch.
Due to entering a water body your title Son of Poseidon has activated! x2 Hp, x2 Mp, x 1.5 Strength, x1.5 Agility, x1.5 Stamina Regen, x1.5 Mana Regen, x1.5 Health Regen!
I face palmed. How the hell did I forget that water makes me stronger. I really am a kelp head sometimes. I sighed and pushed that notification away, letting the water reinvigorate me as I looked at the next set of notifications.
You have killed a total of 20 Skeleton Brutes and gained a total of 9,000 Exp and $3,000!

I Sighed. It was honestly kind of annoying having to read through all of those notifications. But, I guess it is the price I have to pay for being able to get as strong as I have been getting. I got up, my stamina having regenerated to a sufficient level. I looked around at all the loot littering the floor. I sighed and started moving everything into one corner of the room. I did not have enough inventory carry weight to hold it all so I kinda figured that I could just come back and get it later. Maybe I could have someone from camp melt it all down and make some useful stuff out of it.
After a few minutes of moving the massive armor and weapons into a neat little stack I walked over to the chest in the center. I was about to open it when I remembered what happened the first time. My luck activated and I got better loot I guess. So I wonder…
Stat Points 43-13=30
[Luck Lv.15-28]
I smiled and opened the chest, praying to everyone I got something good. After the glowing light from the chest faded I couldn't help but be excited at what I saw.
[Kris]
Grade- Uncommon
This ancient Indonesian dagger is made from celestial bronze and was used to combat many monsters during the short time the Greek gods resided in asia.
Weight: 1.4Lbs, Blade length: 20 Inches, Durability: 4,378/5,000
Damage- 450(+5 Per level of strength)
Another perfect gift for Sasha. For me it was a short sword, but for her it would be a normal or even long sword. It was very light as well, compared to some other swords I have held. I threw it into my inventory. And looked at the other item.
[Speed Potion]
Grade- Rare
This potion was brewed by a master apothecary. It grants the drinker a 20 minute buff of 2x speed.
Weight: 0.1Lbs
That would be sick to use. My running speed is already faster than almost any human in existence. With this potion I could probably beat children of hermes in contests of speed. I threw that in my inventory and continued onwards in the dungeon. I peaked my head out into the main hall to make sure there was nothing there. I didn't see anything so I walked out, sword drawn just in case. I crept over to the next hallway that disconnected from the main entrance. I walked in a bit and reached the next open corridor. Inside was something I never would have imagined could exist.
AN: Hey everyone, I hope you enjoyed this. I know this chapter was pretty boring and lackluster, I was sort of having an emotional breakdown while writing most of this so that is why. I wanted this to be more like an actual video game in the aspects of getting WAY too much loot to actually use. I want Percy to be able to outfit his little demihuman so that she can battle with him eventually. Also I am really hoping everyone can get used to gilded, because I already prefer it to Discord. That is where I will be primarily.
