Enjoy! Thank you for comments, it mean very much to me.

3. Three men army or three "something else".

Arth POV:

It is pleasantly warm evening. Dim, yellow light is shining in a room. They are sitting at the edge of the bed. Both know what they want, their excitement is easily felt. Lena’s cheeks are flushed, her big chest raises and drops with heavy breaths. Mark couldn’t resist any longer. He started kissing her passionately. He feels her body under his hands and is making his way to her breasts. Lena is no longer in a dress, only underwear is left. She is undressing him as well.  Mark sees her amazing, tanned body. Slim, long legs, flat stomach, big, perky breasts. They are not waiting any longer. She is going down on…

‘Go away! I can’t stop reading now! It just got very good, no way I’m going to open this door.’

‘Arghhh! Fine!’

-What! - I shout annoyed while opening damn door.

-Nice to see you too. Did I stop your play time with a girl? Wait, you have no girlfriend, only your erotic books. Hahah!

-Shut up Golbi! What do you want?

-I got an information about new dungeon. I think we should go there.

-That’s quite good news. What kind of a dungeon is it? Where is it? - I’m slowly getting calm. ‘We can find something nice.’

-I have actually no idea. We have to see it ourselves. If it is too hard for us we will back. It’s not even that far away. Approximately 1 day away in the direction of a shore.

-How did you even get this information? We were looking whole day and nothing however now you have this news.

-I have my ways – ‘You didn’t have to wink man.’

-Ok, I won’t dwell on it. We are going there today, it’s still fairly early. Go tell Retia to get ready. We are leaving town as fast as we can.

Not ending my book is a bad thing but I can buy more after conquesting a dungeon. I just hope we will do well there. Theoretically we are better than D ranks, however to be C rank we have to do some missions.

I and my 2 companions met yesterday. We were accepted as the adventurers that day. We have quite a good power but it doesn’t matter that we have to follow Guilds rules. Seeing how good they were I spoke to them and we made a team.

We have no cooperation yet but we will gain it someday. All we have to do is gain some experience with each other and see what we are really capable of.

I am a warrior. I am 1.8 m tall, black short hair and slim figure. I have to gain some muscles. What kind of a warrior is skinny? I use sword and shield. My armor is a little old but inside still gold. Unfortunately metaphorically, I am not rich enough to buy something good. I wear old leather armor.

I reinforce myself with some magic, nothing much just muscle strength. It’s strong magic but it takes me 10 seconds to activate it and it drains mana with crazy speed. I don’t know how to speed up my casting. That’s the reason I was looking for teammates, I’m not the best by myself.

Golbi is an archer. He is fast with his arrows. He is strengthening himself as well. The problem he has is having no defense. He is a little smaller than me but with slim figure as me. He has short blond hair. His clothing is peculiar… Looking at it no one would guess it is supposed to protect but look good. It is some weird green suit with even more weird ‘things’. I don’t know what it is.

The Best at the end. Retia is gorgeous. Long, silky looking black hair, big blue eyes and beautiful, white smile. However I am not looking mindlessly at her. I can’t show she is my weakness. Maybe later, I will see. She is a mage. Her main element is fire, she is quite proficient with it. That’s why is asked her to join me. Who wouldn’t like to have a beauty at his side? She can even do something, it’s good enough for me.

Our packing didn’t last long, mainly because of our yesterday’s excitement. We were so eager to go somewhere that we bought food for a week. Unfortunately we didn’t find a suiting mission. However it doesn’t matter now. We are going to subjugate a dungeon and bring treasures with us.

On our way to the coast, we met some dangerous monsters. Big mice, worse than rats, believe me because Retia got scared. It’s not an easy task, I personally saw her like that only once. Other monsters were orcs, kobolds and tarantulas. The latter is another very strong opponent, comparable to big mice.

We made one stop. Walking through a forest at night is dangerous. We made a camp and we shifted every 3 hours. When I was looking out for any possible danger I made sure that Retia was alright. She even said she slept without any problem. ‘Haha, of course you did. We couldn’t wake you up.’

After 5 hours we finally arrived at the entrance to the dungeon. It is placed under big withered tree. Hole looks very inconspicuously. It can be very young dungeon. Entrance is of the young dungeons. The strongest have gates, long and wide stairs. Small hole with a ladder is nothing compared to that. Good for us, easier earned money.

-What do you think about it? – I asked my teammates. After all we have to make decision as a team.

-I think it is going to be an easy one. What is your opinion Retia? – Why are you doing it Golbi? I was supposed to ask her (out).

-Looks good, I don’t mind going there. - her smile is as charming as ever. Fortunately I didn’t lose my poker face. ‘She can’t know!’

I am going first because we don’t know what is waiting for us down there. Gobi went down as the last one.

First room has dim light, where is it coming from? I can’t see any torches. Maybe it is dungeons ability, who knows. Just because I didn’t hear about something like that doesn’t mean it is suspicious. There is enough space for us but I think bigger party would have a problem.

We can’t see what is in the next room. Some kind of magic is making us unable to see what is inside. It looks completely black in there.

-Are you ready? I am eager to see what is inside. – What can possibly stop us? We are too overpowered.

-I am ready.

-Me too! – Cute voice. Seems like whenever I will be sad all I have to do is hear her speaking.

That’s it! Our subjugation begins here!

Unauthorized usage: this narrative is on Amazon without the author's consent. Report any sightings.

Inside of the chamber are numerous monsters. They look very disturbing. Red fetuses on steroids, that’s what they are. Who breed this thing. I can’t even comprehend what their ability may be. Squealing at us and waiting for our deaths or waiting until we can’t vomit more and attack us in our weakened state? Those are possible strategies.

-What the fuck?! - Gobli couldn’t help but yell. I understand you man.

-Blurgh – Retia wasn’t able to keep it anymore. There goes her cuteness, farewell my friend.

Now I know their fighting style. I want to fight them, immediately! However the moment I wanted to go in, Gobli stopped me.

-You can’t go in blindly. They may look weak but we have to be prepared for everything. I didn’t even hear about them. What are their skills, how they fight? Rieta, how good are you in water magic?

-It may not be as strong as my fire but I think it may be enough to hurt them. At least it will be more potent than fire. They are Demons, right?

-It seems so. The only Demonic dungeon was in Sereb Kingdom. Looks like Ordob Kingdom didn’t have to wait for too long.

– Do you have any plan?

- The simplest possible. We have to see what they are capable of. You go first and protect us from any possible danger. Meanwhile we are attacking them from afar. Rieta’s magic may not be amazing, it’s not her strongest magic, however arrows should do much more. Let’s see!

Should I shout at these horned fetuses? Have they even developed hearing? They have ears though…

Looks like I don’t need to shout. When I made first step they immediately turned at me. ‘Seriously? Nice synchronization.’ The weirdest thing is their screech. It scared all of us, it made us shiver, and then they attacked.

These Demons are very fast. I have to be careful. All 9 of them rushed at me. Fortunately Gobli and Rieta came back to senses. That scream is seriously dangerous. Water balls and arrows are flying one after another. They are very good in what they do.

Only 3 Demons made it past to me. The attack is not very strong, it seems their strength is in group and speed. We obliterated them very fast.

Looking around what we see are only stones. Nothing to worry about. We happily started to walk to the next room. It is indeed very easy dungeon. However we underestimated it, we hear screech again. It stunned us for a second but it is enough for them.

Fetuses were hiding behind the stones! Each of us got attacked by 2 of these little monsters. I can easily defend myself but I am worrying about my companions. Gobli may be able to dodge them but Rieta’s dodging ability is nonexistent.

Making my way to her I luckily made it in time.  I shielded her and then she attacked them. They vanished in a moment. Nevertheless there were 2 following me. I got hit in the side by their sharp claws. My leather armor reduced only some damage but I still got damaged. Now I am bleeding from the side.

One of the Demons got an arrow in the head. ‘Looks like Gobli killed his 2 followers’. I slayed the last one with clean hit in his neck. It made his head fly away. ‘Look! It’s definitely record!’

The amazing thing is that demon blood is black and dense. It startled us a little but we don’t care enough to think about it that much.

 I need to stop my bleeding. Heal potion should be good but they are expensive so I have only one with myself. Drinking it we go into the next room.

It looks very similar to the one we were a moment ago. However we are vigilant. We can’t allow to get deceived by looks again.

-This room looks too simple, there is no stones, nothing can be seen other than 15 imps. Something is fishy. Nevertheless we have to do something. Let’s do the same thing as before, it’s the safest thing we can do now. – I didn’t expect Gobli to be like that. I thought he is easy going like me.

This time Demons didn’t screech, they are just slowly moving towards us. Weird, it’s like they are inviting us to attack them. First arrow changed everything. We are advantageous in this place. 2 ranged people can do wonders in open space.

Little devils understood that and now they are approaching us very fast. This time will be harder, I don’t know how I will defend against bunch of lively monsters. I am getting scratched everywhere, legs, arms, shield. Fight is very fierce and blood is everywhere, mostly black one. In the end we won but I am exhausted and my body isn’t in the best condition. Archer and mage are alright. They are a little exhausted.

Rieta is looking for something in her bag while we are sitting and resting.

-Take this, we don’t know what is in the next room. – ‘Your charming smile is enough girl’. She gave me healing potion, it’s the last one.

-Thank you.

Rested we are walking through a room. Now we know why Demons didn’t attack us immediately. The room is whole in invisible shallow pitfalls. It’s even more dangerous than ambush. If one of us fell on it would be the end for that person. Fortunately for us, our damage is mainly from afar. That saved us from making this place our grave.

At the end of a room there is big door with intricate embellishment, though I don’t know what it means. I put my hand to push the door but Gobli stopped me.

-There is going to be Guardian, be careful guys.

We nod to this statement. He is right, this room is going to be different and Guardians are mainly in locked chambers. There may be only one but we can’t take him lightly They are known for their strength. After pushing doors we see only darkness. What is going on?

-Maybe we have to walk in to see anything? – Rieta probably is right.

Getting inside the room it starts to light up. At first we see a throne and a child on it, then the whole room is visible. Place here is much bigger and brighter here than in any other chamber.

Child has short brown hair, blue eyes and a pale skin. ‘Wait there is something behind him.’ Squinting my eyes I can finally see it, long, black tail.

-He is a Demon! – say loudly. Gobli and Rieta gasped when they heard me.

Are Demons supposed to look like that? He is too similar to a Human.

Child stands up and smiles gently. He has some strong aura around him. ‘I think we should retreat.’ As I was trying to say that, he started his own speech.

-Welcome in my dungeon. I am Samael!

With these words doors shut loudly behind us.
