After telling Michelle about our desire to visit the dungeon in this city, we exited the Inn and headed toward the Adventurer Guild deeper in the city, which I had found thanks to the map of the city I had bought from the Inn's manager for five copper coins. Doing a dungeon run would not only be a little fun given the monotonous past month we've experienced, but it would also give us some extra money and allow Yuki to truly test out her newly acquired Mythical class, along with her mana Soom had taught her.
However, while walking along the streets of the city, we had someone stalking us from a distance, something Yuki was oblivious to, but, as we were in a new, unfamiliar city, I had kept my guard for situations just like this, though I didn't know whether to shake my head or not. Sighing, I used [Heroes Gaze], giving me a complete field of view around myself, allowing me to eye the stalker following us; I was confused as to why she was stalking us in the first place, but I just let it be for now.
"Do you know what kind of Dungeon it'll be, Alex?" Asked Yuki curiously as she glanced at Alexander before leaning down and looking at the map in his hands.
"Nope, it doesn't say on here; you know the Adventurer guild wouldn't allow that; they want to make their own money." Replied Alexander with a shake of his head as he handed the map to Yuki, prompting her to look at it.
"So, we must go to the Adventurer Guild?" Asked Yuki with furrowed brows as she observed the map while Alexander shrugged his shoulders.
"I mean, we don't have to; we can always wing it; it's not like we plan to go extra deep or anything, so realistically, we should be fine, at least from the monsters." Remarked Alexander lightly as he stretched his arms into the air while Yuki shook her head and handed the map back to him.
"No, it's fine; it would suck if the monsters on the first floor were venomous, and I happened to get poisoned." Said Yuki lightly, her words causing Alexander to raise an eyebrow before nodding.
"Yeah, that's a valid point, though, given you, I doubt the venom from a monster on the first floor would be enough to kill you; also, even if it were, it's not like I don't exist; I'd be able to easily heal you." Stated Alexander with a faint smirk while looking at Yuki, only to slap her firm butt, uncaring for the many eyes.
"I don't like using your bl- ability, Alex." Said Yuki firmly as she narrowed her eyes at Alexander, who raised his eyebrows before nodding.
"Alright, that's understandable; besides, there is no point in taking needless risks." Said Alexander lightly as he placed his hands behind his back beside Yuki, who occasionally got ogled at.
The rest of the walk towards the Adventurer Guild didn't take that long, and after ten or so minutes, it finally came into view on the left of us; the building was about the same size as the one previously in Hyphen, though it looked a little more worn out.
'Wonder if it smells just as bad.' Mused Alexander lightly as he reached forth and opened the door while bowing towards Yuki, who entered before he glanced at their stalker.
"Lazuli, will you be entering or not?" Asked Alexander as he stared at Lazuli, who stopped and silently looked at him before nodding.
This entire time, the one who had been stalking us was Lazuli; why was she doing such a thing? I have no clue, but I didn't bother with it and just let her be; once she entered the Adventurer Guild, I followed right behind her while the door closed on its own, and almost immediately, I was assaulted with a pungent smell.
"Yeah, it definitely smells the same. Now, where is Ca- Oh yeah, forget, Cath isn't here. Dammit." Muttered Alexander with a slight frown as he looked around the rowdy guild before sighing and shaking his head while approaching Yuki.
"Tsk, why is she here, Alex?" Asked Yuki in slight anger as she pointed at Lazuli while eyeing Alexander, who once again shrugged his shoulders.
Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author's consent. Report any sightings.
"She followed us from the Inn." Replied Alexander calmly as he looked at Lazuli, who was standing beside them while silently observing the guild.
Yuki clearly didn't like Lazuli's presence, but other than a scoff, she simply turned around and ignored her entirely while I just stuffed my hands in my pocket, patiently waiting for our turn in line.
"Oh, yeah, Lazuli, did you want to enter the dungeon with us?" Asked Alexander with a snap of his fingers as he glanced at Lazuli, who tilted her head while Yuki's face twitched.
"What's a dungeon?" Asked Lazuli lightly as she looked at Alexander in confusion, prompting him to explain to her.
By the time I finished explaining the concept of a dungeon, we had already moved to the front of the line, with Yuki asking for a map of the dungeon.
"Monster's to kill? Yes, I shall enter this Dungeon." Said Lazuli with a thoughtful expression as she nodded at Alexander, causing him to faintly smirk.
"Give me a moment, Yuki." Said Alexander as he slapped Yuki's butt while he leaned onto the desk, glancing at the beautiful demon receptionist wearing clothes a size too small on the opposite side.
With Yuki out of the way, I spoke to the beautiful demon who, just like every other receptionist at an Adventurer Guild, minus Cath, was wearing revealing clothes, not like I, as a man, was complaining, and asked her for the papers to become an Adventurer.
"Yes, one second. Sir." Said the demon with a friendly smile, displaying her sharp teeth as she stood up before turning around and bending over, grabbing several papers.
It was in moments like these where I was thankful I wasn't a virgin, and I had the trait [Heart Of A Hero] because I was entirely confident I would have a raging boner from how much of her butt was showing; I could even see most of her vagina.
'You know, I really respect Cath's decision to not wear such revealing outfits.' Thought Alexander lightly as he stared at the demon, who finally turned around and sat down while handing him the papers.
"Here you go, sir." " Thank you. C'mon Lazuli." Said the receptionist and Alexander, respectively, as he grabbed Lazuli's hand and brought her to the table Yuki was sitting at.
"If you want to enter the dungeon, you must fill out these papers; if you need help, just ask me." Said Alexander lightly as he reached into his space pouch and handed Lazuli a pen along with the pieces of paper.
With Lazuli focusing on the papers, I glanced at Yuki who was observing the map, though after having stared at the woman, my mind couldn't help but wander a little.
'If Yuki wore such revealing outfits… M-My goodness, just thinking about it got me erect.' Thought Alexander as he wordlessly stared at Yuki, only for his erection to hit the table, snapping him out of his lewd imagination.
"So, how is the dungeon looking, Yuki?" Asked Alexander curiously while scooting closer to Yuki, glancing over her arms as he gazed at the map.
"It's an Uncommon dungeon called Rocks; it seems to be filled with rock-like creatures, sort of like a golem. There are only 15 floors, with three guardians, but despite having 15 floors, the monsters are on the stronger side." Replied Yuki lightly as she handed the map to Alexander, who glanced through it.
"Eh, 15 floors? That's more than I expected, though it's an Uncommon dungeon, so even if the monsters are stronger than average, they shouldn't be as strong as the monsters we're used to dealing with." Remarked Alexander calmly as he observed the map for a minute before stuffing it into Yuki's cleavage.
"Also, now that I think about it, I need to take an advancement test. After nearly a year, I'm only an E-Class adventurer, one rank higher than what I initially started as." Added Alexander with a yawn as he leaned against Yuki's muscular arms while one of them made their way into his pants, causing him to roll his eyes.
"Eh, you're pretty strong, Alex; why are you still an E-Class?" Asked Yuki curiously with a tilt of her head as she looked at Alexander while her hand grasped his cock, seemingly just enjoying touching his manhood.
"No reason, really; I guess I just forget. Also, another thing, I need to ask Marlin how to create a party, and then we can finally share the experience we get from killing monsters." Replied Alexander with a shake of his head before suddenly snapping his fingers while his and Yuki's eyes slightly widened.
"Oh, yeah, you need to do that quickly; we've missed so much shared experience!" Stated Yuki with a nod as she gently shook Alexander by the shoulders, causing him to nod while he tried to resist her, which didn't work
"I know, I know; I'll ask him tonight, not right now." Said Alexander lightly as he patted Yuki's thigh while his head gently whipped side-to-side.
"Completed." Said Lazuli as she set the pen down and looked at Alexander, her words causing him and Yuki to stop as they both looked at her.
"Finished? It's only been like five minutes?" Muttered Alexander in slight confusion as he grabbed Lazuli's papers and skimmed through them, only for his eyes to slightly widened.
'Damn, she actually did complete it.' Mused Alexander lightly in slight disbelief as he glanced at the ever-stoic Lazuli.
