Chapter 20 – Second Dungeon. (Part 2)

"You three! I'll retrain all of you. " 

"""HIII..."", all three straightened their bodies as sister Kim gave them a sharp glance.

"And you too... ", sister Kim tapped Shyan on the shoulder from behind and whispered

'glup', Shyan swallowed his saliva and nodded then walked forward first.

I already knew Shyan's nature from previous quests and had seen people named Fitz and Emon when they were at the fifth floor of the previous dungeon, they had good stamina not even inferior to the Rockaxe city guard soldiers.

However, I didn't expect that the middle-aged nun in front of me wasn't an ordinary person. Although she usually looks ordinary, however, ever since we entered this dungeon, I realized this nun is not an ordinary person. When you look closely, she doesn't open any openings and remains vigilant of her surroundings.

Today, Hyuga asked me to stand guard at the back protecting his squad and that's why I still have quite a lot of energy right now. When he asked me to accompany them, I gladly accepted. 

The two young men who were on my team all this time had only lifted a fair amount of supplies, and they didn't engage in combat at all. I also heard that they aspire to become city guard soldiers.

The Royal Army is divided into several sections, starting as a soldier, a guard soldier after which if they take the next exam and pass, they can become a knight of the first grade. Some of my juniors had the opportunity to immediately become a knight of the first grade because their grades and abilities were so good that they got a recommendation to go straight to that rank.

After we walked for a few minutes, Shyan came back and said in front of us a group of skeleton soldiers and zombies appeared. Sister Kim gave us protection and enhancement magic so that we could better deal with the undead, I volunteered to step forward and she agreed.

When I saw the enemy approaching, they consisted of 5 skeleton soldiers and 3 zombies. The skeleton who used a spear immediately stabbed his spear at me, I held it with a shield in my hand, the other skeleton soldiers tried to attack me with swords in their hands, but I again parried all the attacks that were directed at me.

Emon and Shyan appeared near me and attacked the two skeleton soldiers. Shyan was soon next to the skeleton soldier wielding a spear and swung the dagger in his hand towards the skeleton soldier's neck, aiming for the joint. 

He managed to remove the skull's head from its body, while Emon swiftly dodged the slashes towards him and counterattacked with a flurry of punches, I did not waste this opportunity and attacked the other two skeleton soldiers.

“” Aaaa... “”

The two support squad members passed by me and tried to attack one of the remaining skeleton soldiers, in their hands I saw a medium-sized mace. If I'm not mistaken Hyuga gave it to them when they were appointed by sister Kim. Their blows hit the skeleton soldier, but unfortunately it didn't have much impact and they tried to fight it off together.

“ Tck! “

The zombie that was walking quite slowly, without the two support squad members realizing it was already near them, I wouldn't be able to help them. Just as the zombie was about to scratch them, suddenly the zombie's hands and head were covered in a membrane and white smoke emerged from the covered body parts.

Hyuga's slimes helped them, and the larger slimes attacked the other two zombies by releasing green liquid on the legs of the other two zombies, making their legs emit white smoke that made them fall, when I looked closely half of the zombies' legs had disappeared by the acidic liquid. 

The slimes immediately directed their bodies towards the zombies' heads and covered them with their bodies. After we managed to deal with the undead, I saw that the slimes had digested the three zombies and were aiming for the remains of the skeleton soldier.

After that we fought four times, three of which we faced several wraiths handled by sister Kim. Then we returned to the others.

"Not just the master, even the Familiar is strange. Seriously, that lad!"

I heard sister Kim muttering that before we arrived.

*

Thanks to sister Kim and the others, the Familiars and I can now walk peacefully without encountering undead, plus I was able to sleep soundly for 3 hours beforehand. My condition has fully recovered! 

The monkeys and slimes chose to follow me instead of being inside the Dimension room, I walked down the passage from the area we had passed until we saw a group of undead.

' skeletons, zombies, mummies and wraiths... There is no big deal... '

I waited near the turning lane and prepared to ambush them. I first surprised the skeleton soldiers who were in the front row by suddenly running past them until I was behind the skeleton archer, those who immediately turned around to attack me were immediately attacked by the monkeys and slimes.

After that I cut off the hands and feet of the zombies and mummies. The heat sword worked very well against the mummies, one slash burned off some of the bandages in the area and utilizing the wind I fanned the flames.

I replaced my weapon with an ice sword made of holy water and slashed at the wraith and one slash was enough to defeat it, finished making sure the wraith disappeared I immediately put the ice sword back into the storage ring.

The monkeys and slimes managed to defeat the skeleton soldiers and now the slimes were digesting some of the undead that were lying there. As usual the slimes will digest the food of their choice and as I watched them one by one, the two baby slimes had turned into slimes.

'wow.. they've evolved into slimes?'

I then put them into the Dimension room along with the rest of the skeletons' weapons and returned to the others, this time I only found one secret room with a treasure chest that also had a trap when it was about to be opened, the chest would shoot arrows once it was open. Fortunately, Appraisal told me about it and I easily handled it, I found 10 gold 80 silver inside.

After we got back, everyone was rested and ready to resume the expedition, and we continued on our way.

The structure of the dungeon in this second floor was like a twisting and turning hallway, we kept finding paths that made us turn right, it seemed to lead us downwards without realizing it.

Two days passed and we arrived at the third floor, fortunately this time we were not greeted as before and near the stairs there was a room we could use to rest.

"We will rest here. Take your time to restore yourselves. Starting from squad one please bring your equipment to me, I will do the maintenance. "

After I made a partition with cloth into several rooms, Jhon came over to me and brought the report.

"Food supplies are still good, provisions are in stock, hmm... Jhon, please tell Gili to come see me and get someone ready to butcher the beast and then send Dom and Jil to meet me. "

I started preparing my stuff. Dom, Jil and Dagan approached me and like before, I asked Dom to help me. To my surprise, Dagan offered his help and said he had learned forging.

I accepted his help gladly, and when he saw the porteble furnace I brought, he was so surprised, I asked him to keep it a secret. 

Then Gili came along with Rag, I gave the Orc's body to them to process and some other food ingredients in my storage box to increase the amount of supplies. After that we started doing our respective jobs.
