Faelia sighed.

This boy knew that there was a dungeon in this forest, but he did not know where in the forest the dungeon was located.

'Then how does he know there is a dungeon here?'

Faelia didn't bother to ask how he knew there was a dungeon here, because she guessed Lester wouldn't give a straight answer.

'Instead of arguing, finding the location of the dungeon is more important. I want to get the spirit flower quickly.'

Faelia moved quickly through the forest. Lester was following behind her. Frankly, Lester didn't have a way to find the dungeon. His only security was this elf next to him.

Faelia was progressing by spreading her mana around, but it was not easy to find the dungeon in a large forest. The two continued through the forest until it got dark, but this time they didn't stop to rest. Faelia was spreading her meaning non-stop.

The monsters that sensed Faelia's meaning did not approach them.

As Faelia was speeding through the forest, spreading her mana around, she suddenly felt something strange. She started to move towards that direction. A mysterious cave appeared in front of them. Faelia instinctively felt that there was something wrong inside this cave.

Lester, following Faelia from behind, was sure. From the article on the forum he read, he learned that the entrance to the dungeon was from a cave.

"Here's perhaps the entrance to the dungeon. Let's go in," Faelia said, looking at Lester. Trusting Faelia's guidance, Lester stepped into the dark depths of the cave.

As they walked around the cave, the corridors were interconnected like a labyrinth. However, Faelia found the right path by using her mana. A portal appeared in the depths, illuminated by a beam of light.

"There, this should be the entrance to the dungeon. We can leave this forest and go directly into the dungeon," Faelia said excitedly.

"It's a great invention indeed. Let's get in without wasting any time," added Lester, eyeing the portal curiously.

When Faelia and Lester stepped inside the portal, they were surrounded by a burst of light. Suddenly, they were surrounded by a different forest. This forest, Faelia instinctively felt, was the very dungeon they wanted to go to.

The forest had a mysterious atmosphere among the dead trees and light fog. The vegetation was a gloomy shade of green, the dead leaves falling to the ground almost filled with sadness.

"This really doesn't seem like a very friendly place," Lester said, looking around.

Faelia felt that the mana in this forest was quite weak.

"The Mana here is pretty weak."

As Faelia was walking through the forest, she suddenly felt movement around her. A group of beings were approaching with silent steps. Faelia's elven instincts made her sense that these beings were not friendly.

Taking quick steps to look around, Faelia noticed the shadows appearing between the trees. As she got closer, she realized these beings were kobolds.

The kobolds quickly appeared from among the trees. Their grayish skin was covered in threadbare clothing, with bad teeth and wild looks. Despite their small size, these creatures' eyes shone with ambitious malevolence. With their pointed ears, small noses and stocky bodies, they adapted perfectly to the dark atmosphere of the forest.

Each was armed with broken spears or rusty knives. By silently following their footsteps, they had sensed the presence of the duo and were preparing to attack. They were approaching Faelia, gritting their teeth in anger.

Just as the kobolds were about to attack with their malevolent gaze, Faelia drew her sword.

When she encounters kobolds, Faelia's sword shines rapidly, scattering shards of ice around, and her sharp movements strike the kobolds quickly. she was offering death. With her speed and dexterity, Faelia killed approximately 5 kobolds in one breath.

When the attack ended, Faelia caught her breath.

Lester looked at him and thought, "She's fast!"

"Let's move on," Faelia said calmly, and the pair continued their journey through the dungeon, passing among the corpses of the kobolds.

Sometime after Faelia and Lester thwarted the kobold attack, they encountered a group of more aggressive kobolds appearing in front of them.

Their numbers were twice that of the previous group, they posed a greater threat than their predecessors, but their threat level was quite low for this elf. Faelia attacked again with her quick reflexes and sword. Although the kobolds attacked in a more organized manner this time, they were ineffective against Faelia's mastery.

Faelia's sword radiated freezing cold, the sword glistened in the air and overwhelmed the kobolds like a dance. Lester watched this fight with admiration. Once the kobolds' corpses were laid out on the ground, Faelia sheathed the sword.

“The kobolds that roam these forests don't seem to be able to resist us easily,” Lester said.

"Yes, but we must be careful. More difficulties may await us inside the dungeon," Faelia added with a smile.

Lester just smiled at Faelia's words. Ruined World players had rated the dungeons and this streamAccording to the rating, this dungeon should have been high level, or so he remembered saying on the forum.

Faelia and Lester encountered kobolds a few more times. But at one point, the kobolds appearing around them suddenly stopped. When the duo could not solve this strange situation, they decided to find a suitable area in the forest to take a rest break.

Faelia scanned her surroundings and found a suitable spot. The two quickly set up a camp and went to rest. While Lester lit the fire, Faelia focused on ensuring safety by observing the surroundings.

Faelia's instincts sensed a mysterious energy appearing deep within the forest. But this time, that energy didn't feel friendly. "Something is approaching, something far more powerful than the kobolds," she said, turning to Lester.

Lester immediately drew his sword. Faelia wasn't one to exaggerate things. If he says something powerful is coming, that thing is definitely dangerous.

Although not as much as Faelia, he could spread his Mana around and control the situation.

Lester checked the surroundings and sensed the presence approaching them very quickly.

"It's coming!"

Faelia kept her guard up as she warned Lester.

Instead of her relaxed attitude while fighting the kobolds, this time an icy aura formed around her.

Suddenly, a huge being appeared from the depths of the dark forest. A huge chimera with a lion's head, eagle's wings and a snake's tail mysteriously rose from the forest. The double eagle wings fluttered, creating a powerful wind that lifted this enormous creature.

Faelia summoned the element of ice with the elf's natural powers and threw ice spears at the chimera. As the ice crystals hit the chimera's lion head, a freezing aura formed around the creature with the power of the ice.

Lester moved towards the chimera, swinging his sword.

"Stand back! This is dangerous"

Faelia said as she pulled Lester back.

Lester wanted to lend his support, but when he came to his senses he realized he was being stupid.

When he saw this chimera, he remembered the monster mentioned in the content of the forum. 'They said it was a chimera. According to the forum, it was the only powerful creature in the dungeon.'

Lester looked at the monster as it somersaulted through the air, dodging the ice spears.

'Chimera can easily be classified as S grade'

This monster is beyond me. If I fight it, I will be a hindrance to Faelia.
