Chapter 16: Entering A Dungeon
Chapter 16: Entering A Dungeon
The next morning.
He is at the front of the dungeon, it is twenty minutes before the other hunters arrive.
In that instant, as he looked around the dungeon.
All the memories of the deaths of Adam's group flashed through his mind like a movie, replaying over and over like a broken record.
He even began to feel dizzy and nauseous, remembering how they had all perished at the hands of the huge wolf as if they were mere insignificant creatures.
He looked to the side and saw that he was not at the front of the dungeon, but in a completely dark place, without a hint of light.
Soon, grotesque and completely black figures began to emerge from the ground.
He could recognize these figures: they were the lifeless bodies of Adam's group, crawling on the ground, trying to cling to him.
"HIII!!!"
Erik shuddered in fear at the sight of these grotesque figures heading toward him.
"Why are you the only one still alive?"
"It's your fault we're dead."
"If you hadn't vomited, you would have survived."
"Why are you still alive?"
"Come and suffer with us."
Why are you still alive? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?...
Many figures with disfigured faces and completely distorted voices began to appear around him.
They repeated the same question over and over again, completely overwhelming him and not even giving him a chance to breathe properly.
Although when he woke up in the hospital after the incident in which everyone died except Erik, he felt nothing when he remembered the deaths, he did not understand why this was happening.
The reason he felt nothing when he woke up was because his body and system, as a safety measure, prevented him from being overwhelmed by all those emotions of guilt.
If they had not, his mind, which had been very fragile from the beginning, would have collapsed under the weight of those emotions.
But now the situation was different. His body had completely transformed; he was like a completely new person.
However, in reality, everything had changed drastically.
He had lost his identity as a man and was now a genderless person, having taken on a new identity as a.
The 'Incarnation of the End'
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."
Erik, sat in a fetal position, holding his head with a completely somber expression and a look of loss.
Apologizing all the time, as if there was some kind of mistake in him and he's repeating the same word.
"It's my fault, it's my fault, it's my fault, it's my fault, it's my fault, it's my fault, it's my fault, it's my fault, it's my fault, it's my fault, it's my fault, it's my fault, it's my fault, it's my fault, it's my fault..."
He is losing himself, due to the strong feeling of guilt that the death of Adam's group had caused him.
At that moment, his body began to give off a colorless aura that gradually began to take the shape of a gigantic wolf.
Little by little, Erik's vision became clearer. He rose from the ground and the figure of the wolf began to grow larger and larger, until...
"ROOOOOOOOOOOARRR!"
A thunderous roar echoed in Erik's mind.
Swoosh!
In that instant, his mind cleared completely, as if nothing had happened.
He even felt as if a great weight had been lifted off his shoulders. He didn't know why, nor did he intend to investigate further.
The only thing that was clear to him was that the giant wolf in his dream was protecting him.
He blinked once and found himself facing the dungeon again. He looked at the time on his phone and realized that barely a minute had passed.
'Really, it's only been a minute?'
He felt as if he had been in that place for an eternity, but fortunately, he was okay thanks to that giant wolf.
If he had been there for any longer, he really wouldn't know what would have happened to him.
"Hello~"
Still in shock from what had just happened, he heard a soft, sultry voice close to his ear.
Erik turned his face to find a beautiful woman.
White hair, combed to one side. Her face is beautiful, with well-defined eyebrows, there is no sign of fat on her face, and her full lips, are painted slightly red.
She wears a black wizard robe with purple tones, which perfectly marks her two large breasts, which would make any man lose his sanity.
In her hand, she held a small wand.
"Who are you?"
He asked after a thorough inspection of her attractive body.
"..."
The woman didn't answer, she began to slowly move closer. Her hips swayed in a mesmerizing way.
"You are quite handsome."
The woman commented after a glance at him, she had not seen such an attractive man.
What struck him most were her golden eyes and her unique gray and white hair.
'From her attire, she appears to be a wizard.'
Erik deduced as he looked at the wizard's robe and the wand in her hand.
"... By the way, what is your name?"
"Answer first, who are you female?"
"As you can see by my robe, and wand I am a wizard, I already said who I am now it's your turn."
"You know what I mean."
Erik narrowed his eyes and increased his wariness of this beautiful woman in front of him.
"Well, I'll tell you. My name is Violet. I am a mage, and I came to this place because I agreed to join the raid on this unexplored dungeon."
The beautiful woman introduced herself as Violet with a flirtatious smile on her face and revealed why she is here.
'So, she's the mage they needed.'
Erik remembered what it said on the Hunter page channel.
"I already told you my name, now it's your turn there."
"I'm Erik, as you can see, I'm a spearman".
"Erik... that's a good name. Nice to meet you, Erik."
"Nice to meet you, Violet."
After introductions, they headed towards a trunk that was close to the dungeon.
The dungeon they are about to enter is not guarded, by the workers, nor by any of the great changelings.
A few minutes later a person arrived carrying two empty suitcases, and as he approached he bowed respectfully and introduced himself nervously.
"Good morning, my name is Thomas, and I am Porter."
"Good morning, Thomas."
"Good morning."
They returned his greeting with a small smile, which surprised Thomas.
Because usually porters are not treated like people, especially by the newly awakened, or hunters, as they are known around the world.
The three began to talk while waiting for the others.
Within a few minutes, three people arrived: two men and a woman, who slowly approached them.
"Hello, I'm the person you spoke to on the phone. My name is David and I'm a tank."
The man who looked to be in his late twenties introduced himself and then pointed to the two people next to him.
"He is Richard, a swordsman. And this is Cristina, an archer."
Richard and Cristina simply exchanged gestures after David introduced them and went to sit on a log.
"I'm Violet, and as you can see I'm a mage."
Violet introduced herself with a neutral expression as she felt the nasty look those two men were giving her. Though internally she feels very disgusted.
"I'm Erik."
Erik, not liking Richard and Cristina's attitude at all, could smell trouble a mile away with these three people.
'Why am I having such bad luck?'
He couldn't believe this but decided to stick it out because he needed to complete the mission to move up the ranks.
'I just hope there's no trouble inside the dungeon.'
"Nice to meet you, Erik, Violet."
David, focused on the spear Erik held in his hands, completely ignoring Thomas as if he didn't exist.
"Let's talk about the strategy we'll use in the dungeon."
"As you all know, today we will be venturing into a new low-rank dungeon, as you may have noticed from its green color. According to the information provided to me, the monsters inside the dungeon are of the insect type."
David briefed the group, detailing the important aspects and explaining the different formations they would use inside the dungeon.
Erik listened attentively, as he sensed that this dungeon would not be normal.
***
Once they finish talking about the different strategies, they are in front of the entrance of the dungeon.
The group consisted of five members, led by David, the most experienced of the group.
They headed towards the entrance of the dungeon.
While they were there, Erik was worried about experiencing something similar to the last time.
Shaking their heads to chase those thoughts away, they all entered the dungeon.
The world seemed to distort, and their vision distorted as they stepped through the portal.
Soon they found themselves inside a huge cavern that formed the dungeon.
