02: Confrontation

If the blue box is to be trusted, Rose should be on the level of a god, the name suggests that Rose would be at the apex, but I don’t know how strong the outsiders are. For all I know, they could at the strength level of Rose or higher. Despite my high mana pool, all my other stats are really weak, so I’m probably out of the equation if a fight breaks out.

"Hey Rose, can you come over here for a sec?"

Creak

Somehow Rose had managed to remain unfazed by the earthquake and was still playing on the swing set. Hearing my words, she comes over in a flash.

“What’s up?”

“Some people called adventurers might come in the near future trying to attack us. I want you to be on the lookout for me, can you tell me if you noticed anyone?”

“Ahh, are you talking about those people?”

Looking at the sight of my confused face, Rose continued.

“Some people entered the first floor a while ago. There’s quite a few of them.”

Shit, already?!

A cold sweat breaks outs. “How many do you think there are?”

“Because there’s so many of them, I can’t really tell, but I think that the number is around 300. They sound like they’re in fully clad armour as well.”

“Rose I need you to keep watch for me, can you tell me when they’re starting to get close?”

Judging by the length of the floors in the dungeon, if they sprinted without stopping at the speed of an average human, they should take around an 12 hrs. I'm thankful for the sheer size of each of the floors. Upgrading Rose to tier 10 took around 8 minutes, assuming that the timings stay the same, I opt to create 3 tier 10s, leaving me with slightly more than a quarter of my mana.

I activate ‘Create monster’ 3 times, each time shining a familiar light, forming into my created monsters. Even without checking my status box I can see what I’ve created. Regardless, I still bring it up.

A demon, a baby dragon and an undead huh…

I have no time to spare however. I quickly begin upgrading their tiers.

New Evolution Achieved!

After increasing the tier of your demon to the sixth tier, that monster has evolved into a new form, increasing it's abilities, and changing it's appearance.

In less than 25 minutes I have them all done. To my despair however they’re all in a deep sleep.

Shit, we don’t have enough time...

“Rose, how close are they now?”

“They’ve come to a stop at floor 3, and they don’t seem to have any plans on moving anytime soon, but daddy, are these my new family?”

Shit! How did they cover so much ground in such little time.

Entering deep thought about my next move I gave Rose an absent reply.

“Yes they are. Treat them well.”

“Yay! I've always wanted younger siblings!” With this Rose flew into a frenzy, zooming around the throne room with a smile from ear to ear.

But why would they stop so far into the dungeon… How did they e-

A blood chilling screech vibrated through the air. Tremors could be felt running through the floor and walls. With such a sudden turn of events, even the Rose who didn’t blink an eye at an earthquake stopped what she was doing.

A blood curdling scream was heard from the floor above us.

“Rose we have to go!”

Without even thinking twice I pull rose by the hand towards the third floor. Despite the obvious risks, I couldn't live with myself if I knew someone was in danger and I didn't do anything to help.

Having to run through multiple rooms to reach the stairwell to the floor above, I sprinted through a few repetitive corridors with the same theme as the throne room, with cobblestone walls and floor and a red tapestry complementing the interior.

“Daddy, you need to work out. You’re too slow!”

Okay that one hurt a bit…

With that, Rose took grab of my clothing and moved full force towards the third floor. My surrounding turned into a blur of colours as a sense of nausea filled my body.

In less than 20 seconds we had reached what should have been the third floor. I fell onto my knees and emptied out my stomach. My eyes watering, and my body falling onto soft grass.

Wait… Grass?

I clear my eyes with my hands and look around and see that I’m in some sort of forest. The sun's up and I can smell the aroma of the different plants in the area.

“Swords up men! We cannot let the prince die!”

Looking a little forward, I can see that there’s a small clearing with a large group of fully plated 'adventurers' in a stance ready for combat.

“Be ready for the next attack!”

It’s a middle aged man speaking. He’s clearly the commander of the unit and to accentuate that, he has a slightly turquoise plating compared to the knight’s steel, the plating lining very developed chiseled muscles. He’s sporting a bushy brown beard, with an equally bushy hair style. His shoulders are wide and he looks like someone you could depend on.

Another screech bombarded my ears. Looking straight ahead, I see a grounded dragon, with his jaw open to attack.

Shit...
