I noticed right away that my Intelligence, Charisma, Fitness, Martial arts, and Magic Power all rose by a few points. "System, with my stats the way they are now, how do they compare to the races of this world?"
"Mmm… I would say, for someone your age, you could be considered a top genius. When you reach Intellect 10, you will be considered a genius amongst adult humans. After that, you would need to reach an intellect of 30 to meet the stupidest of the elves. Your friend Marsil was unlucky and got everything but intellect from her elven bloodline. As for Charisma, I would say you are more charismatic than the king of the land. If you so wished you could probably have both females and men groveling at your feet with just a few words. Your fitness and martial arts are about midway to match up to Ruth and a few points behind that of Cedric still. Your magic power though, puts you above humans and around that of the fairy race." The system explained. This was enough to give me a good understanding of just how overpowered I am… I never asked for this. But somehow this is just how things worked out.

"We finally found it!" We all cheered as we looked at the staircase leading down. This floor was really disgusting to the point that we really did not wish to come here ever again. Not to mention the number of zombies that just kept appearing out of nowhere. But I at least did not need to summon anything after the first time.
"How long have we been down here?" Marsil asked.
"Mmm, I think a month and a half. We need to find a way out. Maybe one will show itself when we finally reach a boss floor." Able replied.
"I hope we find a way out soon. I really wish to shower. I'm starting to stink. To be honest Able how are you even able to hug me when I smell this bad!?" I mean I could smell my own stench and they say your body smell will not smell as bad to yourself but would smell really bad to those around you. And to me, my stench smelt bad! But Able still took every chance he could to wrap his arms around me so I am starting to become really self conscious!
"My Rei will never stink! She will always smell like blooming flowers no matter what!" Able's answer made me roll my eyes. I wanted to say: "Smell like flowers, my ass!" But I was still slightly touched by his words, even though he was lying through his teeth. I mean, he was even striking this righteous pose for some strange reason. Although, I will still say he is even cute while he is acting goofy.
"Okay, okay enough about how smelly I am. I was just mentioning it in passing. I mean who doesn't want to have a bath right now. Anyway, back on topic. We have to keep going. But before that, we should take inventory." I suggested as I tried to change the subject.
"Alright let's put all the potions, food, and water that we have left out. " Able said as he took the pack off his back and began placing out the items he had. I followed suit with Marsil and Sam doing the same.
Looking at the lacking supplies made me frown. We had barely anything left. Our food supply had been almost completely diminished. We were out of healing potions and had three mana potions left. Stamina potions were hardly used, though. We had our water flasks that were practically empty as well. We had been using water magic to fill them, but with so few mana potions left and the time it takes for mana to restore, we had to be careful when we did fill them. This floor with zombies was really tough on our supplies. "Well… We can only hope the next floor will have normal monsters or else…." I turned and looked at the dead zombies on the ground. I quickly erased that thought from my head. I would rather eat dirt.
"Not happening! We will figure something out. Let's head down to the next floor and see what it has in store for us." Able said as he dished out the supplies to everyone.
"System, is there food in the store?" Just in case I had no choice, I figured I would ask. I would not mind revealing some things to Able about the system if it meant surviving.
"There are many kinds in the system shop. There are also many of the supplies you are lacking as well. Would you like to purchase some?" The system asked.
"Not yet… let's see what is in store for us." I did not want to seem like some kind of freak just yet So I figured I would hold off as long as I could before telling Able about my system. I am sure he would be okay with it but there was always that what if situation.
"Alright let's go. staying up on this floor will get us nowhere." I dragged my tired body and bag to walk down the stairs.
Able walked next to me and took my hand. He leaned over and whispered into my ear as we walked: "We will pull through, don't worry."
