26. Dungeon [3]

Looking around, Feuer noticed that everyone had been separated, he was all alone right now, no trace of his friends and the rest of the students, then, he started to pay attention to the environment, no matter where he looked, all he can see is mountains and trees covered by a beautiful, white snow that radiates the word ''pure'', however, who knows the dangers that lurks inside that forest.

Feuer wasn't affected by the cold, chilly environment at all, if he had to say, he felt rather comfortable and warm, shaking his head slightly, he thought 'From the lessons, the Instructor said that only Tier 2 Dungeons would separate everyone that enters it, which means this is a Tier 2 Dungeon...'

'Judging that this is a Dungeon with a cold environment, I can conclude that the monsters here will also have that attribute, perfect for me, though...' Feuer thought and also sighed in relief, his friends would probably be safe, with the twins having Ice element and Luar having Fire element.

Narrowing his eyes, Feuer thought in his mind as his Mana was sent 50 meters around him [Sense] before looking towards a specific direction, East, on that place, he detected three auras, two of them being familiar signatures to him and the third being unfamiliar [Light Acceleration] he thought as he suddenly appeared beside the two familiar signatures.

Ignoring them, Feuer looked to the creature in front of him ''An Ice Bear, huh...? Too bad that you met me''

The Ice Bear in front of him is a Low Tier 2 Beast, it has around 2,5 meters of height, one that hadn't developed high intelligence yet and only has its natural instincts, the Ice Bear growled as he felt the puny human in front of him is a threat so he decided to attack first, raising its paws, the Ice Bear then 'slashed' downwards.

Smirking, Feuer stepped to the side slightly as he thought 'This is the end' before touching the Ice Bear and saying ''Burst...''

As he said that, flames erupted from the Ice Bears insides and burst all of his internal organs thus killing him instantly, it was a quick fight but despite liking to fight, being quick on this case is more important than playing with the Ice Bear, looking back, Feuer said ''Are you okay? It's good that you two managed to stay alive against a Low Tier 2 Beast, pretty impressive, seeing that both of you are High Martial Awakening... ''

Both students in front of him are male, one of them quickly thanked him ''Thank you, we don't know what would happen if you didn't appear...!''

Feuer looked at him strangely and said ''If I didn't appear, both of you would die, anyway, the important thing here is that we need to search for the rest of the students and make sure they're safe, our Instructor probably already found many of them, also, we need to be silent, I don't think an Ice Bear would attack alone, there's probably more around, let's go...''

From afar, growls could be heard as a chilling air could be felt by them, the only way to clear a Dungeon is by killing the owner of it, mainly called by the adventurers as the 'Dungeon Boss', once a Dungeon Boss is killed, another one will take the place, a Dungeon can have monsters and beasts under its Tier but not ones above it.

It took them around fifteen minutes before finding the Instructor, that had around fourteen youngsters around him, seeing Feuer, he sighed in relief ''I found you... I was worried something could happen, however, there are still 6 students missing, three of them being your friends...''

'If something happens to any of the young aristocrats here, even as an Instructor, I'm doomed...' The Instructor thought as cold sweat kept flowing down his back.

One of the two male students that Feuer saved said ''It was Feuer that saved us, he killed a Low Tier 2 Ice Bear in an instant!''

As he said that, the students around felt many emotions towards Feuer, awe, fear, respect, and admiration, the females, however, all had heart-shaped pupils, the target of those stares trembled slightly 'This is... f*cking creepy, it looked good on some animes I saw but on real-life, damn...' he couldn't help but curse inside his mind before shaking his head.

''Look, this is not arrogance but I feel that I can search for the 6 missing students, I recommend that the Instructor stay here and protect all the students present because while I'm strong, I can't protect everyone at the same time, something that only our Instructor can do, anyone don't agree with I just said?'' Feuer said indifferently, most students emotions towards the former changed to complete respect, the Instructor thought for a bit before saying

''I agree with your decision, however, be careful!'' Feuer nodded, if it was before advancing to Spiritual Manifestation, maybe he wouldn't be so confident but now, he's sure that even if someone at Peak Martial Body or Peak Spiritual Manifestation comes, though it would take some time, he would be able to defeat that someone, this was confirmed by how easy he killed the Ice Bear.

'Now that I think about it, I killed the Ice Bear without even blinking, I didn't even feel anything right now...' Feuer felt strange and sad at the same time, he's Half-Phoenix and Half-Phoenix, this means he's also Half Beast, despite that, he killed someone of his ''kind'' and he doesn't feel anything about it

Feuer felt confused as he thought 'Maybe the fact that I'm also Half Beast made me indifferent to killing?' but then, he shook his head, it doesn't make sense at all 'Someday, I would need to kill and it would become something common, since I don't feel anything, I guess this is better...'

There was a day he read 'When one kills for the first time, they would feel bad but after killing more, they would feel good' he doesn't know if it true but he'll discover it soon enough.
