"Orb, captured!"
Albert's cheery voice rang out as he bounced the orb from the dungeon in his hands.
"But…" Luka continued taking away the silence, "Where exactly is this place?"
All around them was dirt and houses erected from god knows how many trees as they littered the place around. Around the houses were but a few remaining trees with the leaves rustling while in front of them were seats made of tied leaves and yet more wood.
"Whatever, doesn't matter as long as we're together, right Albert?"
"Uh no—"
"RIGHT, ALBERT!?"
The poor chap could say nothing in front of Miss Drill Curls and nodded solemnly. But their location was important right now.
There was a famous unconquerable dungeons that the receptionist had told them of. A dungeon which was never ever conquered by any person. Whoever went in to the deepest bits never came out, only the people that were on the first few levels of the dungeon could survive.
With such a juicy place in front of their eyes, just nigh of the riverbed where the battle of the Beaver River was to take place, they couldn't help but want to go.
Eugene decided to help out in the battle, and along with Maria was the only person who stayed back.
The receptionist and the Manager had gone off on their own to handle the adventurers in all the other regions of the East during wartime. Since it was so torn up and split apart, they were planning to ask the guild to not take any side whatsoever.
That left the rest of the people here. The group of Eugene Hall, Albert, Luka, the Fonias twins, Noa, and Irina.
Then, the next group that had gathered. Sharky and Zachy, Rio, Marissa, Mohawk, Asahi, Lily and Sophia.
And lastly, the final group that was on the team, Iffy, Philip, The two princesses, Adelia, Jin Mandom and Min Mandom.
They had quite the team on their end, and of course, the dungeon was easy as fuck.
But that had left them at a completely different place.
"It can happen," Selphie, Luka's fairy partner spoke up. "When there are multiple entries to a dungeon. We just asked Alfheim to get you out, and it did so through the closest space."
Albert slightly turned to his side and Aine nodded.
"In that case, this place is a dungeon entrance? Right in the middle of a residence?"
As if those words were a cue, a glint of silver flashed in front of Albert's eyes and he gently, very gently turned his head to the side. An arrow came shooting at him from one of the houses.
"Woah, woah!"
Luka screamed.
"W-where is your mandom, bastards!"
"If you're a real man, then show yourself!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe two Mandoms screamed together while huddling up against each other. They were the least manly folks here.
Albert's eyes were fluttering around at max speed.
"Look, Albert, dungeon and weapons. War torn East."
Marissa, clasped on his hands, started coldly stating facts about the current situation.
"I already figured that out," Albert said. There was little need to think.
The fact that no one who ever went in came out, that they had the most trash teammates like the Mandom duo but still managed to conquer the dungeon without breaking a sweat.
And lastly, that they had emerged from the closest point.
This was one of the places ruled by a tyrant, just like Eugene Hall had told them about the East.
"What I am thinking of is if it would be better to destroy and go back…"
"Or?" Irina crossed her arms, a grin on her face.
"Or tour around a little."
There was no need to wait to find an answer.
Not long after, hoisted up on Golden furred horses. In their hands a long flag and on their waists long swords.
"Halt right there, heathens! You have entered the God on Earth's territory!"
And with them were chains clanging black.
Ikuro Asahi raised his brows. "Those things…"
"What of it?" Luka asked.
"Those are chains that can seal your mana and ki," Asahi said. "I am certain. The lord and I were trying to recreate them and he showed it to me. It's the same for sure."
"Hm… They've made a net out of it."
Albert glared at the houses around them. For sure, they all had people with their weapons pointed toward them.
The horse riding group came toward them and threw the net of chains at them right away.
Luka decided to hop in first and let the chains hit him, shielding the rest. It might have seemed like a shield, but he was truly only checking the effects.
"Huh? It really did seal my. I can't summon it. But I can keep running it in my veins."
The cavalry raised its weapons and screamed.
"All of you, get on your knees right now if you don't want to die!"
Most adventurers would have tried to strike a conversation here, but they just ignored it.
"Really? Maybe its just because of the level you are at?" Noa asked. She was slightly better but not all that much. They both looked at Rio, then grabbed the net and tossed it at Rio.
She grabbed it with her hands, her face completely plain.
"It's tough, but I can do it. Just a little bit—"
"HEY! DO YOU NOT HEAR—"
Albert stepped forward then and patted their horses. He slowly raised his gaze at the leader of the troupe and spoke.
"Which demon is helping you out here?"
Everyone in his group and theirs went silent. He saw the man flinching slightly.
"They are angry," Marissa spoke up in the language from the Pinot kingdom. While he observed the people on the horse, he let her take care of the ones in hiding.
The chains made it clear enough for him since he had heard the entire recounting from Eugene of the incident. There was definitely a demon involved in this part of the world.
That would also explain why they captured people who stepped out of the dungeon. The difference in the reaction of the people and the leaders here was just the cherry on top.
This was rather useful. He was grandly annoyed by the entire thing that Eugene had going on about a historical war lasting exactly 29 days. That fucker had gone as far as staying behind and helping in a battle just to make sure it happens in the timeframe.
"How dare you talk about our emperor as a demon—"
Albert tapped the horse again and it rolled on its side, making the person atop it fall of.
"Eat shit, asshole. Fall off your horse!"
"Wa!" "Kill them!"
The others chuckled out loud at the words of the cavalry. In the blink of an eye, a lightning strike and a bunch of flying pins came rushing out and struck the bastards straight in the head.
Princess Hoya pulled out her sword and dashed toward the houses, along with Luka and Noa.
The houses all around were broken apart by lines of trees that Adelia summoned. The ones behind them were frozen over by Marissa.
Albert simply got on the horse and whipped it.
"Alright, you guys enjoy I'll go and kill their emperor."
"Wait! I have wanted to kill a head for a long time!" Marcin Fonias spoke.
"No fair!" Meryl said and grabbed the horses herself.
"Oh, I wanna fight some wars too!" Irina screamed. She didn't want to bother with these little folks anyway. There was a giant castle in her sight and she wanted it.
"Killing people is not good."
Rio chimed in.
Almost all of them turned to face her. Unable to believe she would defend these guys who were obviously killing adventurers and feeding them to demons.
"Rio…"
"It was ironic. Couldn't you tell from my tone."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Of course I couldn't! The heck?"
Rio wanted to call her colleague a traitor, but held it in. The two of them started to run behind Albert as well.
"Say, Iffy," Philip began. "Don't we get to keep the treasures we find in places like these?"
"Oh, we do. The rules do say we do."
"Who was the person that had stolen the most treasure in Adventurer Time again?"
Iffy's lips twitched.
"Eugene Hall…"
That bastard had gone ahead and sold a baron to a brothel. Of course he had the most pillaged treasure.
The two of them nodded and decided to shoot toward the castle as well.
"Too slow idiots!"
Lily stuck her tongue out as she and Sophia floated through the skies on a giant rock.
"Mirxa telekinesis is the greatest in the world!!"
"Mad…"
The only people left in the center huddled together. Jin Mandom and Min Mandom held each other while Mohawk and Asahi gulped at the sight.
"Let's stay away from them, Min, you two."
"You're right, Jin. I don't want to die. These guys are mad in the head! They have no fear!"
Don't want to die…
Both Ikuro Asahi and Seeck Mohawk felt something stir within them.
They clenched their lips and took a step ahead.
Seeck brushed his Mohawk. "Sir Eugene won't be happy if we're just standing back, huh?"
Asahi nodded and raised his palms at the houses around. "He'll definitely be angry if we say we were scared."
"No, you can be scared," Mohawk said. He remembered the words that Eugene had told him when they planned to capture the demon worshippers in the academy. "You can be scared, but that shouldn't stop you from taking action."
He was scared too.
But he moved nonetheless.
"Let's go."
The two of them, their hair standing on ends, moved along with the others to aid them in their fight.
"Jin…"
"Min…"
That day.
The Mandom duo decided to take a step into their Mandom.
