My eyes open as the world comes back into focus. I look around and see Wug is still asleep but his arm looks a lot better now. As i glance around some more i see the wyrmling sitting next to me, a bitter smile on her face as she nods her head in my direction.

"My last mate was already dead when i got down there. There are six cells, two of them housed the spiders which are now dead, one the lizard which is peacefully sleeping in the arena, one for my dead mate, and one has a weird plant thing in it. The last one is empty and looks like it used to have something really strong in it since the bars are bent and destroyed. I left the bodies alone so you can loot them yourself along with Master Wug once he wakes." The wyrmling says in exhaustion as she stares at the ground in disappointment. As i glance over i see that she's curled into a ball and finally passed out, a death grip still on her daggers as hissing breathes come out of her throat.

After a few more minutes I finally try to get up again and wince as pain shoots through my chest, but I don't pass out this time so that's one win for the day! I limp my way over to where Wug is and shake him awake before gently lowering myself down beside him. As Wug finally sits up he looks around in a daze before finally smiling and starting to laugh. As i look at him in confusion he points at the Boss's corpse and starts laughing again before coughing and taking a wheezing breathe.

"We won Noor! We actually beat the Boss and all the rats and we survived! I thought we were gonna die!" He says happily as I smile and we both start laughing again until we're groaning in pain. After we catch our breathes I tell him how the last wyrmling didn't make it but there are still two creatures left in the cells. As I glance into the arena i see the pale lizard looking towards us and inspect it.

(Albino Moonlit Skink Level 5)

A rare variant of a Moonlit Skink. Moonlit Skinks are peaceful creatures that inhabit cave systems and waterways. Growing between 5 and 12 feet long they are primarily domesticated and used as mounts for small statured creatures.

I smile as i read the word peaceful before i motion to Wug and we start going through the bodies loot to see what we got. Most of the gear is garbage but we do find some food rations as well as a fancy top hat which Wug immediately decides is his even though the tops been cut off and there's a giant hole in the side. I shrug before tripping over something and landing face first on the ground, my chest flaring in pain as i roll quickly and hold my breath in hopes that it'll stop burning soon. After several minutes i breath out and glance at what i tripped on before smiling and picking up the wolf head cane the Boss had. I use inspect once more and am excited as i get a notice from the tutorial!

{Inspect level up! Level 2 you can no receive information about the health of living enemies as well as any known weaknesses. Due to Having a Vassal/Vassals if they know information that you do not it will also be displayed and shared.}

(Cane of Minor Strength-Rare Blunt weapon)

A distinguished gentleman's can with an enchantment of support. When wielded you can choose to use its support effect which increases all allies STR by 4.

I put the cane across my back where my broken machete knife would have been strapped then take some of the cooked meats we looted and begin gorging myself. after my stomach bloats and i feel sick i try breathing deeply and smile as the worst of the pain has faded. I take a bunch of meats and stuff out before climbing slowly into the arena and approaching the lizard. It stands a head taller than me and is fairly thin due to malnutrition but it's eyes shine with caution as it growls towards me and its claws pop out. As i see that I take a large piece of raw meat that still has fur on it and hold it out towards the lizard while I maintain eye contact with it, it's silver eyes slowly turning from caution to curiosity as it slowly crawls forward and accepts the meat. The skink looks gratefully at me once more before swallowing the chunk whole before looking at me again, it's thin tail starting to thump behind it. As i approach it once again it growls gently before limping backwards, eyeing me with caution once more but unable to refuse the temptation of food. I Slowly walk forward and unload all the meat in front of it then back up from it as the starving creature dives into the feast. As its eating i walk around it and start looking into the cages before finally arriving at the one that's still occupied by a living creature. The cell is fill with darkness but i can see two glowing white eyes tinged with green staring at me, curiosity and fear showing in the milky orbs.

"Hey dude, we're friendly as long as you are so if you come forward I can probably let you out." I say awkwardly while rubbing the back of my head and trying to appear peaceful.Upon hearing this the creature steps forward and i can't help but use inspect one it considering its the strangest thing I've seen so far.

(Myconid Healer Level 2)

Myconids are a peaceful race of sentient mushroom creatures that usually live underground or in vast forested area's. Although peaceful they are also extremly skilled warriors as well as Healers. Most Myconid's stay within their own races towns and villages but rarely one will travel to try to establish a new colony.

The creature that walks forward literally looks like a large white button mushroom. It has spindly arms and legs as well as thin lips and a small jaw hanging at the bottom of its face. As i keep looking at it i notice a bag around its shoulder as well as a staff made out of roots laying on the floor of its cell. I finally shake out of my stupor and motion for the creature to step backwards before i brandish the cane and beat the ever-loving shit out of the door, finally laughing as the lock shatters and falls to the ground. As i open the door and let the mushroom man out he grabs his staff and falls to his knee's i front of me, tears of joy fall from his eyes as he thanks me repeatedly.

"Oh great savior I, Mog of the Underbrush tribe, owe you a life debt! I swear to serve you faithfully for saving one such as myself!" The Myconid Mog says while weeping in happiness. I grimace a little before the tutorial voice once again starts blathering in my ear.

{Congratulations you've obtained a Vassal! Mog of the Underbrush Tribe has sworn his undying devotion to serve you! All experience Mog receives you will gain 5% of.}

{You have gained the passive skill- Savior}

The gods have noticed your tendency towards doing good deeds. Although your no saint your no devil either. Those who have no ill will towards you will feel a sense of peace from you presence while those with evil inclinations will feel anger and dread.

I sight as i pull Mog to his feet and try my best to calm him down. Once i finally manage to get him calmed down I explain what's going on and we make our way back towards the skink who is now noticeably rounder in the stomach area. As i approach I become terrified as the skink charges at me, its mouth wide open as Mog attempts to throw his body in between the lizard and me. The skink hits Mog and with an oof he lands off to the side as the skink bowls me over and starts coating my face in drool. I laugh for a while before finally pushing the big beast off of me and once again the tutorial chimes in my ear.

{You have gained the trust of a wild beast! Wild beasts can be tamed by anyone but to do so is difficult. For some reason this beast approves of you and wishes to follow you. Do you wish to make the (Albino Moonlit Skink level 5) Your pet?}

I happily say yes and name the lizard Pearl due to the pale rainbow colors that reflect off her scales. She happily nods her head along and starts running around the arena in glee as Mog and I climb back up to the rest of our group. Once we arrive the wyrmling is awake and looking between Mog and myself while nodding before she comes over and punches me in the shoulder. Once more the tutorial voice enters my head and i grit my teeth in annoyance before reading the new message.

{Oh look at you go! An unnamed wyrmling has acknowledged you as her true master and sworn her allegiance to you! You will receive 5% of all experience she receives! Don't you think that after all this she deserves a name dude? Don't be a dick.}

"What the hell!?! Are you actually a tutorial or what the fucks going on!?" I yell as everyone looks at me like I'm insane. As I smile meekly and tell them to forget I said that the tutorial message pops up in my mind once more but this time its actually useful.

{Lol! Damn you should see your face man. Hilarious! So to answer your question I am a tutorial but I'm also a little bit more than one and made special for you. You've finally leveled enough that i can speak to you outside of general stuff so ask away my goofy friend!}

It says in an obnoxiously chipper voice. And believe me I plan to finally get some damn answers!
