Reborn: I'm A Dragon Girl With An OP System-Novel

"How many monsters is this!?" Sophie yelled out. Right now, we were surrounded by what are called snowmen. They are, just as one would guess by their name, snowmen, the things kids would make when it snowed out. But these ones had razor sharp teeth, and their skinny branch link arms stretched out quite a ways with their pointy claw link fingers.

Now, normally this would not be such an issue, but there were just so many of them! "Master, the monsters on this floor are all converging on to this area. There are millions of them."

"Wonderful!" I yelled out as I melted another snowman. What made this situation even worse than this was that they were easy to kill enemies, but they gave little experience for their level! It's as if we need to battle the entire floor just to get to the next staircase leading down!

"Ahhhh! I can't take it anymore! Everyone stand back!" I yelled out as I took a deep breath. Since they just wanted to keep coming, I will do something that will make killing enemies easy as stepping on the grass of someone's yard that has a keep off the grass sign! After everyone retreated, I let a stream of flame spread out in front of me. I melted all the snow men within my barrier before turning it into a spinning barrier made of flames. "Let's go! I do not want to spend another second on this floor!"

"I was waiting for this!" Sei yelled out. "I thought we were really going to have to kill them all!"

"If the experience was good maybe, but the three experience per kill is just…. It's not worth it!" I snorted as I walked forward. The girls all giggled and followed behind me. I just wanted to level, not play around with weak monsters.

We continued forward until we found the next staircase. When we reached the next floor, it was another series of the same thing. So we once more moved until we reached the stairs leading up. This repeated all the way until we reached the thirtieth floor, where we were met with a large snowman who roared and died from my fire breath.

The boss was level 5065 but died with a single shot from my flame breath which gave me a total of one thousand experience! Yay! Not! I can't believe how much of a waste of time those floors were. Maybe if it was a team who did not have flames or something, it would be hard, but for us, it was like stealing candy from a baby, which I would never do. If they had a shiny, I might, but not candy!

When we exited to the thirty first floor, we stopped in our tracks as he seemed to arrive on a blanket of clouds. But what startled us all was that Atollie suddenly jumped in front of us. "Master, stay back!"

"Atollie!?" I cried out as a golden barrier suddenly appeared around us.

"Come out!" Atollie yelled. Her eyes had turned cold as she looked out over the puffy cloud landscape.

I scanned the area and saw no one. I didn't even detect anyone. So I was unsure of what was going on. It was not until a few minutes passed that a chuckle was heard, and a made with white feathered wings floated down. "To think one of the gate guards dares to bare their fangs at me."

"I am no longer a gate guardian but my master's guard, and you are overstepping your bounds." Atollie looked at the man wearing a white robe with golden trim and a golden circlet on his head. His golden hair fell down to his waist, and his golden eyes sparkled in the light. He looked very much the part of a spoiled rich kid with too much money. Well…. Or an angel or god or something like that….

"Oh? I see…. So you were the one…. You can relax. I am not here to harm anyone. I was just curious about something." The golden haired young man's eyes went from Atollie to me, causing me to frown. "Why are you even here?"

"Huh?" It was not just me who blurted this out but everyone else as well. This included Atollie as well.

"Oh? It seems you… We will just leave it at this. Things seemed to be getting interesting. But for now. I will say this. If you reach the last floor of this dungeon you are in, I will give you a little surprise." The golden haired man smiled at me before turning back to Atollie. "Protect her well…."

I watched as the mysterious golden haired man disappeared. I did not understand what was going on. Atollie's hand was gripping her sword tightly as she stared at the spot the man had disappeared. You can call it intuition, but I think there is something being kept from me, and well, it's annoying…. "Atollie?"

"Ignore it. It was just a clown." Atollie replied as she turned and smiled at me. "There are no monsters on this floor, so we should take a break and enjoy the scenic view that not many will ever get to see…."

Seeing how quickly Atollie was trying to change the subject kind of irked me, but there was probably no way she would answer even if I asked. She was not something you could call as a contracted monster or something like that. She was a summon who would fight for me, and that was it. She was not someone I could order to tell me things because she still had her own free will. So no matter how much it bothered me, there was nothing I could say or do to pry the information out of her. After all, she was too high of a level for my dragon speak.

I took a deep breath and let it out slowly before saying. "Let's do as Atollie suggests," I said as I walked over and sat down on a fluffy cloud. Adel followed behind me and sat next to me. She then leaned over and asked: "Is it okay to drop things like this?"

"We have no choice for now…."
