"F-iing snake. You almost cost me an arm." Said out loud as he looked at his broken left arm. To say the least it was not a pleasing sight to see in the slightest.
He casted his gaze towards the snake that he had sprayed with acid spit at a very close range. There was not much movement from the snake, but he knew that the snake was not yet dead.
Gripping the thorn, he had in his hand tightly, he approached the boss monster carefully. He had to finish the deed.
He did not think that he could go on another round of battle with the cunning snake. He would rather have the snake as an undead or a stat and skill generator for him, than for the snake to be his current enemy.
When he got to the front of the boss horned monster, he saw clearly what had happened to the snake.
The snake had its entire face melted by the acid. It was not a pleasing sight. It was as if the snake was plastic that passed through scorching flames.
"How are you still alive. Well, tops to you, I guess.
You are the first boss monster that I have faced in this my fantasy life and the first boss to die by my thorn.
I commend your efforts to eradicate my life for good." Tim said, as he drove the sharp thorn directly into the squishy top of the boss monster.
A black smoke instantly covered and swallowed up the boss monster's body.

Immediately after the system alerted him of his level up, he immediately felt like all the closed chi points in his body were released. He felt a level and sense of relief that usually came with a power up.
Tim was happy about the level up. Things were moving really nice for him and he would prefer it, if things continued to move smoothly for him.
"Allocate 3 points in strength and 2 points in endurance." Tim instructed.
This time he knew exactly what he needed. He was tired of getting flung here and there due to his lack of strength and he needed endurance just because he needed more vitality and he needed to resist and withstand pain better.
He was still feeling the pain from his broken hand. He hoped that the added points to endurance would ease his pains and speed up his recovery. Fortunately for him he was relieved of his pain and his broken hand started to heal a bit faster.
"If not for my elf trait of regeneration, I would have been in far much worse pain than I am in now."
Now that Tim was done with the dungeon, he expected it to shatter like the ones in the books, but it did not shatter.
Looking around him he wondered if there was any missing piece that he did not catch about the dungeon.
Under normal circumstances a dungeon should close after the boss monster was defeated, but yet it remained intact.
He suddenly had an idea of what was happening. He assumed that the dungeon was stopped from shattering because of the influence of an existence like the one he spoke with in the dark space.
His was half right.
Tim was shocked when the prompt appeared. Unlike his system status or pop up. This particular prompt was very big in size.
It covered majority of the sky and it was written in red. While he read the prompt, it was as if a mysterious voice was speaking into his head.
"What is this dimensional tower games that you speak off." Tim asked, not wasting any time to ask the right question to the existence that was currently asking him for an answer.
The Dimensional Tower games would grant you the opportunity to achieve such dreams. All you have to do is survive and ascend the tower, till you reach the very peak of the power and have a seat as a creator.

Tim was now getting confused. Was he in the wrong fantasy theme. He knew that the current theme he was in was fantasy, but what was happening in front of him and the information that he was seeing, all screamed that he was in a game like world.
'Shit. This is confusing.' Tim cursed out in his mind.
Why would someone or a group of people create a means for others to rise fast. It never always made sense to Tim.
He did not just see the reason why someone or a group of people would be gifted with the opportunity to hurriedly grow in power.
Even the system gifting. Why did they always gift people with systems and unique gifts. It did not really make sense to Tim.
The necromancy system that he was also gifted, came at no cost to him. he just demanded for compensation and he was gifted.
Everything was fishy to him, but he knew one thing for sure. If those at the top thought that they could use him how ever they liked, they better think again.
If he was going to participate in their games then he would participate in it according to his own rules. "Fine, I will participate in your dimensional games and I will be the one to put an end to it."
