"I want to bring Ivona to a dungeon."

"What kind of dungeon?" Aquila seemed calm to that remark first.

"An S-Rank Dungeon by the zoo." Aquila spilled his coffee, staring at Raven with a glare.

"Wait what?! You can't be serious!?" Dolores slammed her hand by the table, glaring at Raven who just smiled at them.

"An S-Rank Dungeon?! Raven she could be in danger!"

"It's because she is in danger is why we need to go there. Ivona can befriend plenty of monsters, if we can get her to be friends with S-Rank monsters it can be good. Besides, the dungeon in the zoo isn't exactly a threat. Blue Vipers have been using that dungeon as a means to experiment with the monsters. But if we have Ivona it's a different story. Shall we?"

"But it's an S-Rank Dungeon!" Dolores bellowed at Raven who just shook his head.

"Dolores. I don't like this either but... We weren't able to rescue Ivona then but.. If she has the monsters by her side. She would be safer." Ivona seemed worried as she held her father's pants. Tugging it with her trembling hands. The trauma lingering over her like a looming shadow, she's just a kid but she went through something like that?

"Ivona. Are you scared?" A reluctant nod that of a child trying to put on the bravest face for her parents.

"I-..I'll go..." her legs were like noodles, barely able to contain her fear. Dolores and Aquila hugged their daughter, trying to assure her while Raven had a weak smile. She had every right to feel fear, it's a dungeon not a picnic.

"Uncle... I'm sorry. I'm not brave..."

"Ivona, it's okay to be scared. We're going to a place that there's plenty of monsters. Some of them are like Blue Hare, fluffy." Her eyes lit up but her legs were still shaking.

"You'll have some good friends." They headed to the dungeon, whereas Dolores stayed silent the entire time. Making things awkward for her husband and Raven. Even Aquila had questions on his face, but he knew that Raven wasn't going to answer.

Arriving at the zoo, where they headed inside. There were some protests about bringing a child but Raven told the association agents to keep their mouths shut unless they want him to stitch it shut. Stepping into the dungeon, where they found themselves in a forest. Seeing Phantom Hares, Slippery Rabbits, Jewel Foxes, Diamond Wolves and many more creatures make their way towards them.

"Don't draw your weapons. They're just curious because none of them have been captured." They see a small dragon fly over to them, where it decided to move near Ivona. Fluttering its wings close as Ivona raised her hand, then seeing it move back a bit. The small dragon could not be any bigger than an adult's palm, it was just small and cute.

"Ivona. Some of these monsters got hurt because very bad people hurt them. So they can be scared of humans. Uncle's going to go help some of them with the traps okay? Just wait for them. Dolores, Aquila. Don't attack the beasts. They will come out slowly." Raven said as he walked into the forests, they notice how the beasts stayed away from him. Perhaps they understood Raven was agitated because he had to do this.

In that moment, Blue came out, where it leaped to Ivona's lap. Letting Ivona stroke it, it just nuzzled its head to Ivona's chest.

"Thank you Blue. I'm sorry for being scared." Then they see the Jewel Foxes and Diamond Wolves make their move, Aquila and Dolores held their weapons, only to see the alpha of the diamond wolves laid down beside Ivona.

"Your fur is so pretty... But... I heard Uncle say that bad humans hurt your family. So.." In that moment Ivona felt the wolf's tail brush against her neck, causing her to giggle.

"That tickles, mister wolf!" Then they see griffins, wyverns and dragons hover above them. Then in the distance, an ashen dragon came flying in. It was larger than the size of the nearby mountain, slowly lowering its head.

"Hm.... I see you are related to him."The dragon whispered gently, Aquila readied his blade but the dragon did not say a word.

"The monsters here could sense her fear, that's why the wolves and foxes are comforting her." Then seeing a griffin cub land in front of her, where it moved close to rub its beak on Ivona's hand. Letting Ivona stroke its head.

"Be at ease, Aquila Ashenworth. It seems my descendant, a pixie dragon seems to enjoy your daughter's company. So do most of the creatures here... Now where is he?"

"I'm here Inzaka." Raven said as they see him bring traps and cages that had been dismantled.

"You want me to be your niece's guardian, I suppose?"

"Yeah it's difficult to keep her safe when they dared attack a school. But a forest? I remember you stayed in a huge mountain."

"After our encounter, I chose to stay somewhere peaceful. I started to realize how trivial all of it is. I suppose this is just fate, as what you humans call it." Inzaka spoke as he lowered his head to Ivona.

"Child. What is your name?"

"My name is Ivona Ashenworth, Mister Dragon! What's yours?" She spoke with a smile as Inzaka showed his fangs, a smile of sorts.

"A polite child. My name is Inzaka. The King of Dragons."He whispered gently.

"Oh, how do you know Uncle?" Inzaka was trying to answer that question in a way a child could understand.

"We're friends." Raven said as Inzaka chuckled.

"That is one way to put it, this child's energy. She's full of natural elements. Not even the darkness can harm her. A pure child, it makes sense why even the jewel foxes and diamond wolves would not be so wary of her. Her mana is that of mother nature itself. Truly you two have a blessed child. Darkness that is not made of hate or anger but of calmness of midnight. Holy energy that is kind and warm instead of its judgmental flames that curses people. The mother has divine energy and the father is blessed with aura.

"The entire dungeon will submit to your niece. We will be her guardian."

"Thank you Inzaka."

"I am a parent as well, so to see a child like your niece be in fear because of what humans had done to her... It disgusts me so. Ivona." Ivona smiled as Inzaka lowered his head to her direction.

"This entire dungeon will be your tamed monster." In that moment Ivona saw a bright light appear before her, a gem that turned into a nice pink backpack with rabbit motif.

"It's a dimensional storage and we can also leap out of it, when needed. That bag will change its shape to suit you. Where ever you go, child. We will always be by your side." Inzaka said as they see many beasts step out into view.

"Little Ivona, my young master. We will always protect you." Then Raven saw a notification.

Dungeon gate has been transferred to Ashenworth Residence.

Inzaka and the contracted beasts cannot die unless Ivona dies.

Should a lethal blow reach her, they will take the hit instead.

"A shield and a mace for the mother, for the father. Take this coat. As for the uncle, I suppose this will do." To which Raven found a sniper cannon, a bullpup configuration, 7 rounds of 75mm which was the Hunter Standard for certain types of weapons or armored vehicle turrets. This was the rifle Raven used to snipe Inzaka out of existence.

"It's power is the same, truly the name Raven's Eye makes sense. It is your eye, and nothing may escape those eyes of yours. They may avert their gaze, but they can never be out of reach from you. It's been given my blessing. It's mana conductivity and aura is at S tier. " Raven chuckled where Inzaka showed his smiling teeth. The dungeon portal opened up, where they all stepped out.

Dolores was admiring her new shield and mace, the designs had an innate nature of flames. Holy fire that could cleanse the undead and resistance to stagger was high. Where Aquila glanced at the new red coat with the golden highlights. Ivona had the pixy dragon by her side, then seeing the dungeon vanish.

"You can name him you know. Inzaka would be fine with it."

"Uncle, what about you name him? He's a gift because Uncle let me meet some new friends!"

"Razeltia. It's a name of Inzaka's oldest son. This one despite being a pixy dragon is strong, quite like Inzaka." The pixy dragon chirped, then coiling its tail around Ivona's hand.

"Seems like it's happy. But I'll be going to Westland for a while. I need to go hunt a certain other person. Another bodyguard for Ivona. See you later."

"Bye Uncle! Stay safe!" Raven headed out on a bus waiting for the trip to Westland then seeing a new notification.

Inzaka : So Ulfang is next. I trust you will enjoy your duel with him?

"Even if he is an asshole, I can't help but respect him because he's a capable warrior. He refused to fight with the other werewolves when he faced me. But when he lost, they honoured their deal to die by my hands."

Inzaka : He holds your gloves. The Gloves to complete the Abyss's Gaze.

"Why does he have it?" It took a moment for Inzaka to answer.

Inzaka : He has studied you and wishes to face you as you are now. He's a lot more... Humble now.

"Humble? He's not that arrogant and prideful bastard?"

Inzaka : Perhaps you've humbled him.

"I'll take that as a compliment." Raven said as the people on the bus turned to him with raised eyebrows, perhaps the fact that Kael was talking to himself was known by the people. He didn't have earphones or a bluetooth on so that made a lot of sense. Not that Raven minded anyway, so he could just keep going. Arriving at Westland, Raven made his way to the S-Rank dungeon where Shaw and Max were present.

"Ashenworth." Max greeted him.

"What are you two doing here?"

"This S-Rank Dungeon has been here for 4 months. Not allowing anyone access. We're worried it might break." Shaw said as they see the dungeon portal slowly opening up. Revealing a werewolf who had brought weapons out. Melee weapons of various kinds.

"Ulfang." Ulfang gave a nod as he readied his saber. Seeing Raven draw out one of the Sabers of Zeal. The two of them stepped forward tapping their blades as they took a step back.

"It's fine Commander, Captain. I'll be dueling with this one."Raven and Ulfang went after one another as Raven began to chuckle. They were clashing repeatedly, fast slashes to try and catch each other off guard. Ulfang's smile and Raven's madness. It was like a match that they both had been waiting for a while. Now was the time. A duel that had been engraved as they see Raven kick Ulfang back, blocked with his hand. Taking a step back as Ulfang howled at Raven who roared back in defiance. Glass began to shatter all around them, even a few Hunters had fallen on their knees.

Ulfang leaped back to dodge a strike from Raven, then dashing forward as Raven used his sheath to redirect the piercing slash to the side. Ulfang went for a jab to Raven's face, then Raven headbutted him back. Raven spat out blood as Ulfang just grinned, sheathing the saber. Then drawing out a pair of maces, Raven did the same. Going for it as Raven had to redirect the many different attacks. Even with aura, the strength of a Sovereign Werewolf was a different story. He was being pushed back, a hit struck his shoulder but he managed to land a blow on Ulfang's leg.

Their bones were fractured but the smile on their faces? It has not faded as they dropped the maces. This time going for an all out brawl. Jabs to the face, Ulfang bit Raven's right shoulder but Raven tore off his ear. Then a kick to the stomach, going in close with his hands clamped together. A downward swing but Ulfang managed to dodge that, unleashing a fast barrage of kicks that Raven had to weave through. Even though he dodged all of them, the sheer force grazed his skin.

But that didn't stop as Raven brought the trench knife and combat knife, whereby Ulfang brought a pair of bayonets. Going for aura infused slashes, unleashing aura waves at close proximity. They clashed evenly as Ulfang began to chuckle.

"More! More! This is getting fun!"

"Seems like you've got a knack for this." Ulfang then drew a pistol, so did Raven. Firing the pistol fast as they closed the gap, rolling to the side. Getting close as they went for punches and grapples. No kicks to avoid any changes to the balance. Trying to ward off the other party's pistols away. Ulfang's pistol pointed at Raven's neck, a narrow dodge as he fired a shot at Ulfang. Grazing the right jaw, but that was not enough. Their guns ran dry as they wrestled against one another. Both of them reloaded it at the same time, then firing a shot that struck each other's shoulders. Dropping their guns as Raven pulled out a knife while Ulfang readied his claws. One final strike. Raven was left standing with Ulfang falling onto his knees.

"You beat me. So you going to kill me?"

"No, I need you to act as my niece's bodyguard."

"Sure. Oh, right." Raven got the gloves from Ulfang.

"That's one of your Personas. Which reminds me." Ulfang threw a pistol at Raven, glancing at the 2011 frame pistol that had the words 'For the Lone Survivor.' on the slide.

"It's a custom model. It's called Howler. When you fire it, it makes the howl of a werewolf. It's chambered in 10 mm but it's got another caliber. One that you can make." Raven racked the slide. Yeah, this was his sidearm. The best pistol he needed for fast combat and crowd control. Howler was a custom work weapon designed and made by Raven himself. The 10mm Vandal was the custom ammo he made, essentially turning the pistol into a hand cannon.

"The gloves can be used without the Persona. The weapons inside don't have mana conductivity or aura but you can use it to channel aura waves or elemental attacks." Ulfang spoke as he got back on his feet, then stretching.

"Give me a day. I need to sort out the werewolves inside the dungeon, mind if I take them with me?"

"Bring your tribe then and about the items, please pass it to Commander Shaw and Captain Max." Ulfang gave a nod as Raven saw the notification.

Dungeon will be shut but a gate has opened at Ashenworth Residence.

A new dungeon type has been created.

Training Dungeon.

You are now the owner of the training dungeon.

A gate has been made at Black Wings guild's HQ and RF Westland base.

Raven turned to Shaw and Max.

"I'm going on ahead. The werewolves will bring out the items. They're a rowdy bunch. Ulfang, Commander Shaw and Captain Max lead groups of soldiers. They could use the training. Can you assign your werewolves to be sparring partners and guide them?"

"Of course." Ulfang bowed to Raven as they watched him leave.

"Looks like another rumor's going to fly out. He cleared two S-Dungeons in a single day. What kind of crazy person is he?"

"He's the craziest of them all but that's what makes him a unique person to be with." Ulfang said as they see werewolves stepping out. Placing boxes of loot, they all had weapons, the ones who didn't have weapons had strong aura. Even werewolf mages had existed. Werewolves with guns and the like.

"We'll help train your members. Not to brag but even my C-Ranks can handle A-Rank Hunters. It's because I teach them different ways. Survival by numbers. Survival by creativity. I hone on talents and make due with what I have. Then I sharpen their fangs until they know when to use it." Ulfang spoke where Commander Shaw gave a nod. Agreeing with that notion because it was the best way to train his team.
