Alter Dimension: Lucky Dungeon Master



Looking at the cave that's now covered in darkness not far away, Alex frowned.

From where they are standing, Alex can see that the previously beautiful seaweed and corals suddenly died as they come into contact with the ink from the Kraken.

'Tsk, luckily I decided to escape from that place. Looks like my guess that the ink is poisonous was right!'

On the otherhand, when Kris saw what happened to anything that came into contact with the Kraken's ink, her face turned pale.

She looked at Alex and said,

[Kris: Thank you for saving me, Alex. I didn't expect that this Kraken would be this ferocious!]

[Zero: Don't worry, since I promised to act as your bodyguard while we're here, I will naturally do my best to protect you.]

Seeing Alex's reply, Kris felt warm for some reason.

She looked at Alex's broad back and couldn't help but feel secure.

While Kris is occupied by her own emotions, Alex at this time has already prepared himself to fight the Kraken.

That is because he saw that the Kraken's ink had also started to disperse.

After a while, the figure of the mad Kraken became clearly visible to Alex and Kris.

With eight long tentacles with hundreds of disgusting-looking suction cups and hideous purple color outer skin with a glossy appearance, the Kraken undoubtedly looks terrifying.

'Sheesh, that's just… disgusting!' Alex thought.

Even though he said that, Alex didn't delay and started getting closer to the Kraken.

Seeing the person who 'caused' his home to get destroyed approaching, the mad Kraken swung a couple of its tentacles without hesitation.

Instead of dodging like before, Alex decided to deflect those oncoming attacks.

Clenching his fist, Alex punched the tentacle that was targeting him.

Boom!

When the fist and tentacle made contact, a loud explosion sounded even though they were already at the bottom of the sea.

Feeling the strength from Alex's punches, the 3-Star Kraken's face changed.

As a dignified 3-Stat monster, this Kraken has long since formed its intelligence.

Seeing that in that confrontation, Alex didn't even move an inch, the Kraken knows that it met a powerful foe.

So, without hesitation, it immediately used one of its core skills.

Dozens of magic circles suddenly appeared on the seabed, glowing with soft blue light.

Seeing that, Alex narrowed his eyes, 'As if I'll allow you to finish casting!'

Kicking his feet off the water, Alex launched himself towards the Kraken!

Because his strength and speed stats are equal in number, there was some synergy effect that caused Alex's launching speed to be so fast that he arrived in front of the Kraken in just a blink of an eye.

Before the Kraken even reacted, Alex already threw a punch at it, targeting the Kraken's head.

Because of the power behind his punch, the water seems to have lost its resistance and his hand hit the Kraken unimpeded.

In his head, Alex said, 'I'll make your head explode!'

However, the explosion that Alex expected never happened.

'Huh?'

Alex's fist just slipped away after hitting the Kraken's skin.

It was as if Alex just stepped on a banana peel and started sliding away.

That's what it's like when his fist touches the Kraken.

Confused, Alex didn't know how that happened.

Right on time, a message notification from Kris appeared in front of him and a look of realization appeared on his face.

[Kris: Alex, using physical attacks against the Kraken is useless. Its skin is coated with a material similar to slime that causes all physical attacks to just slip away from it!]

[Kris: Also, it has a passive skill that makes all physical attacks just bounce away from it.]

With a look of understanding, Alex shifted his eyes back to the Kraken and saw that it had already retreated a few meters using its huge tentacles.

At the same time, the Kraken has also finished casting its skill and dozens of giant purple squid that's about 3 meters in size each appeared from those magic circles!

Like loyal subordinates of the Kraken, those giant squids started rushing towards Alex all at the same time!

While Alex is looking at those newly summoned, a new message from Kris appears in front of him.

[Kris: Alex, be careful with those squids, they are powerful and poisonous!]

Suddenly, Alex frowned.

Even though his stats are without a doubt higher than those squids, Alex can't help but worry about the poison.

That's because, until now, Alex still hasn't acquired any resistance skill!

Clicking his tongue, Alex opened his character panel.

…

…

After seeing all of his skills, Alex frowned.

'My attacking skills are too few. And most of them are only D-rank skills!'

Thinking of that, Alex started to think of what he can use against the squids.

Since he's in an underwater environment, [Fireball] and [Wind Blade] are out of the question.

The same is for the [Water Ball] since he's fighting against 'water type' monsters.

That leaves him with only [Earth Spike] and [Freeze] to use.

As for [Lightning Judgement], since it's a skill that manifests through the clouds, Alex is not sure whether he can use it here or not.

Anyway, shaking his head, Alex decided to make do with what he currently has.

While Alex was doing all that, the squids and the Kraken in the distance had already started attacking him.

The squids spitted out a ball of purple ink from their mouths that flew towards Alex.

At the same time, the Kraken slapped the seabed with its tentacles causing it to start forming cracks.

Because Kris is standing not far away, it can't be helped that she also gets affected by the attacks from the monsters.

Seeing that, Alex frowned and thought, 'You guys really want to die, huh.'
