[ Emotions ]
Walking around the Nameless Forest that is about 5 kilometres far away from Rōkaru City , located at West Part of Hikiyoseru Land .
Birds flies freely up in the sky , unknown to threat they carries on their wings .
Those animals of land , resting and running around the plain terrain of Nameless Forert.
Those lushly long grasses grown with fertility born from dead corpses .
Those beautiful and long rivers that streches endlessly , flowing and drifting the story of east so to tell west .
Those gentle breeze of spring , warm yet very cool .
Sweeping the message of one part of world , those beautiful and untouchable wind flies to other side of world .
[ I have never felt one ]
Stopping at the bank of long river where freshwater flows , all four Adventurer inhales and exhales long breath .
" If you are thirsty then please drink the water from the river now , because once we arrive Nameless Dungeon , you will hardly find fresh water "
Crouching down , Wudi Egun lifts up his visor a little bit . Revealing only his mouth , he drinks the water by gathering between his joint palm .
"You are right , Sir Sun . Let's take a rest for now "
Fang Song heaves a sigh , exhaling long foul breath . He rests beneath a tree while the two ladies also goes for river , drinking freshwater.
[ They looks very happy ]
Curious , Wudi Egun turns to look at those three secretly. He sees them laugh , smile and cheer up .
[ They are surroundeded by positiveness , always enthusiastic and optimistic ]
With his dull eyes behind his helmet , Wudi Egun observes them .
"Hey Fang Song , come here and play with us "
Zhi Shuang and Wong Xian runs deeper in river and begins to splash water at each other , truely beautiful picturesque scenario to remember.
[ The definition of happiness is to laugh , smile , cheer , keep yourself optimistic and always be surrounded by positiveness . Isn't it ? ]
" No girls , I don't want to . I am just too tired after walking all day "
It is still afternoon , but since they have been walking since morning , it is understandable why Fang Song is tired .
After all he is equip with Heavy Knight Armor and Sword .
They must weight around 300 kg according to his strenght as E Rank Adventurer . Otherwise how will he even fight ?
"Let's leave now , we need to arrive at Nameless Dungeon before evening . At night , Night Monsters lurks around so we need to camp in Nameless Dungeon for tonight "
Wudi Egun tells them and stands up . Turns around and leaves .
Seeing him leave , those three also begins to follow him .
[ Happiness ? Such a complicated word to comprehend . This is a " Thingamajig " to which a human has given name " Emotion " and classified as " Happiness " ]
When they were travelling to Nameless Dungeon , they met Goblins and some weak Monsters yet everyone were easily defeated.
[ I always wonder , is this Happiness also meant for me or not ? ]
After a while soon they arrived at the foot of Nameless Hill . They needs to climb this hill which is around just 3000 meter high .
There are lots of trees and plants growing newly born leaves and bud .
Since spring has come , the dead trees and dry plants are beginning to show sign of life and vitality .
The higher they climbs , the more fresh the air gets .
[ In my entire life , I have yet to experience this Happiness which is still an unidentified feeling for me ]
After reaching the top , Wudi Egun spreads his wings , resembling a pair of arms ready to embrace the sky , arches his chest up and inhales long breath . And soon , he exhales them out .
"What a lovely view "
When Zhi Shuang arrived on the top of Nameless Hill , her eyes widely open . Her heartbeat races faster and faster .
Her pupils glitters with admiration .
This didn't just happen to her , even her friends were overwhelmed and flabbergasted by what they saw before their eyes .
That burning sun which exist far away from Magicskill World , reaches its sunlight till they touches the end of universe.
Those warm light of sun , reflects the enormous vast lake existing on the top of Nameless Hill .
Azure above the world gets stolent by its colour which is now part of world , the Lake has mixture of color from sky , enchanting the beauty for hundred times .
Those rays that births illusion of imaginary multicolor orbs around the lake .
Those lushly grasses grown on the edge of lake while some arched tree exiting around , adordning the lake like some ornaments .
"This is , this is marvelous"
Everyone unconsciously uttere those same words through their mouth which is embodiment of their true feeling upon seeing Nameless Lake .
[ Is this place a paradise on Earth ? ]
And on the center of this Nameless Lake is a small tiny island where a cave exist .
The mouth of this cave is large and wide enough to even fit an elephant , but this Dungeon exist on the center of Nameless Lake. And between land and that Dungeon , minimum of 3 kilometres distance exist .
" Let's move "
Wudi Egun askes his clients to move , they all begins to move forward , closing distance between themselves and Nameless Dungeon on every breath and steps they takes .
"Levitation"
Zhi Shuang raised her Five Elemental Staff up and chanted a spell .
[ A magic . How can I underestimate this thing call Magic again and again ? After living on world where science and technology dominates almost everything , this magic is still unfamiliar to me ]
Levitation is a simple yet hard to learn Magic Spell which is used to levitate the target up in the sky , a minor version of [ Fly ]
Soon everyone were coated with greenish Aura all around their bodies , they slowly began to levitate up in the midair .
Their body began to soar toward Nameless Dungeon , crossing the lake through flying above the lake .
After a long time later , they landed on a small island that exist on the center of Nameless Lake , right Infront of Nameless Cave .
If you encounter this narrative on Amazon, note that it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.
"Phew , my Mana is almost exhausted after using Levitation on four targets at once . And especially you , Fang Song , your armor is just too heavy for a Mage like me "
With a pale face , Zhi Shuang points her finger at Fang Song .
[ Zhi Shuang , daughter of Elf King and Queen . Born with such extraordinary Mana Vessel almost comparable to a Dragon , she is also known by name of Daughter Of Magic ]
"Sorry , sorry . Next time , why don't you learn more high level magics ? Like that , you don't have to worry about my heavy armor "
With an awkward laughter , Fang Song said to Zhi Shuang.
" You mean to say , it is all my fault . Take this "
Zhi Shuang kicks on Fang Song , forgetting this young boy is fully equipped with a Golden heavy armor.
"Ouch !! My leg !! My leg "
A very deep pain was felt after Zhi Shuang kicks on Fang Song , she jumps up and down while crying .
"Hey it's not my fault okay "
Fang Song innocently tells her .
[ This kids are still immature , even after standing on the center of enemy's territory , they still has luxury to fool around ]
" Everyone stop fooling around , if you have the luxury to fool around , then I have no energy to look after you "
With apathetic tone , Wudi Egun warns them . He is here to escort them and not to babysit .
" We are sorry , Sir Sun "
After realizing their mistake , those two stops fooling around . But Wudi Egun just looks at them with complicated emotions in his heart.
No one knows what he was thinking right now . After a while he turns to look at mouth of Dungeon .
"Do you know , you guys have died more than hundred times when you were fooling around "
After saying that , he enters the cave without caring to explain himself or listening to other .
Although Zhi Shuang and Fang Song didn't understand what Wudi Egun meant but they still follows him .
Wong Xian and Wudi Egun walks Infront while Zhi Shuang and Fang Song walks behind .
[ And first glance this three seem to be from a very prestigious and powerful family . But when you get to know them , you will realize this three are just group of frogs who has yet to jump off the well . For them , that azure above their head is everything ]
The more deeper they walks , the more the smell of fresh blood reeks .
"Be careful , don't let yourself get killed "
The smell of fresh blood alerts Wudi Egun , so he warns his clients to stay alert .
[ Normally in Dungeon , there only exist Monsters ]
His eyes slwoly began to grow serious , loosing his all apathy from before .
[ But when you get to realize how Dungeon looks in actual , you will be thunderstruck by the cruelty it hides ]
After a while , they soon saw it .
[ Along with Monsters , there also lives this existence to which we call " Humanity " ]
" Human "
When Zhi Shuang , Fang Song and Wong Xian saw the source of blood smell , they were petrified for a second .
[ And what is much more terrifying compare to Monsters are not Demon or a Devil . Infact they are the embodiment of Evil — Humanity ]
The fresh dead corpses of female humans were all over the ground , collapsed .
There were at least five female dead bodies while one was still alive .
[ And when you get to know more about this existence call " Human " , you will realize how pathic and narrow minded thought you carry for a Monster ]
"Please , please don't "
The still alive female human crawls back in terror when she sees Wudi Egun and his team . Her back finally hitting the cave wall.
Her friends have already been killed . And only she is still alive .
Her naked body is full of scars and scratches , her lower [ female vault ] is releasing some white liquid out . There are bruises all over her body.
Her eyes have already lost hope , life and soul . She is like a Deadman with no soul in her body .
Although she is physically and spiritually alive , she is emotionally dead .
[ When a human meets another human in world where law and order does not exist , the result is , they births " Humanity " ]
With an unaffected emotions , Wudi Egun observes this still alive victim .
[ The meaning of humanity is not that they are kind , benevolent , holy and a law abiding citizen ]
" Sir Sun , we should help her "
As the descendant of Golden Lion Family who is known for their Heroic Ancestor who has saved mankind in the past .
And also a family that protects Saint Lord Kingdom , Spirit Of Justice runs deep down in Fang Song blood . This is so one of many reason almost all his family are Knight — Order Of Justice .
[ How follish of this young boy to ask me if we should help this pitiful victim ? ]
Wudi Egun looks at Fang Song . From inside his helmet , Wudi Egun helplessly heaves a sigh .
" Listen carefully , do you even realize what has transpire to this victims ?"
Although his voice was very slow and calm , but the weight of his every single words were heavy as a mountain .
" I don't know what happen to them but at the very least we should help that lady over there , otherwise she may lose her life "
Wudi Egun shook his head when he saw Fang Song insisting on helping that survivor . The voice of Fang Song is loud enough to alert the Monsters inside the Dungeon.
"Sir Sun , I know some Healing Magic . Maybe i can help her "
Zhi Shuang also decided to support Fang Song decision.
[ Healing Magic ]
Turning to look at Zhi Shuang , Wudi Egun silently gazes her without saying anything .
[ Although a Magic capable of Healing both Physical and Spiritual injuries are miracles even for a Magic . But can a Magic heal someone's Emotions ? Their Heart ? Their Feelings ? ]
"Listen here carefully"
With a calm voice , Wudi Egun told them .
[ If a Magic can heal someone's Emotional Injuries , then I would be the first one to use it ]
"First of all , this lady over there , is a victim "
He points at the lady who is murmuring something while gazing on his team . Her eyes are reaving her apprehension and will to die .
[ Once someone emotionally dies , they becomes just an empty vessel containing their soul . That's all ]
"Second thing , by observing the situation . It is more likely , they were taken hostages at first "
" Then , they were played "
"They were raped not just once or twice , they were raped until they lost all their ability to move , even after that , they were still raped until they lost their life "
When those three heard Wudi Egun , everyone clenched their fists tightly while lowering their head .
Everyone were silent .
" There is a possibility that even after their death , until their body carried warmth with them , the culprits must have still raped their corpses just to satisfy their sexual hunger"
"And when they were satisfied and bored of their toys , they must have left them alone . Alone to die in this Dungeon where Monster habitats"
Although what Wudi Egun said was cruel and very unacceptable , those three could not deny his words .
"But still , we can help her "
But that Justice inside Fang Song was still not ready to give up .
[ Sigh * playing hero will one day lead you to your own demise ]
Wudi Egun didn't stop Fang Song and let him do what he wants to do .
Fang Song inhales long breath and exhales them out , he looks forward , before his eyes is very disturbing picture of five naked ladies dead body with full of fresh bloods and white stuff .
A lady in her late 25 , with her naked body is trembling and curling into a ball while screaming .
[ When someone receives an Emotion Trauma , the more you try to help them , the worse it becomes ]
Their clothes that are ripped is spread all over , swords and knife , bow and arrows are also all over the places .
"Don't , I beg of you "
" Please , please spare me "
" Don't do anything to me "
The pitiful lady kept on begging Fang Song . In her eyes , Fang Song was no less than those Beast who played with her body and her friends .
[ Only death is salvation to those victims ]
"I am not going to hurt you , I am here to help you "
Fang Song kept on pursing her not to worry , he was here to help her . But the closer he got , that lady got more frighten .
And finally , that lady could not fight against her fear , she jumped on one side and picked up a knife .
"No , stop it "
Seeing that lady pick up a Knife , Fang Song anxiously cried out to her.
"Hahaha "
"If you won't let me live , I will then kill myself "
With a crazy eyes and madness burning over her face , the lady soon points the sharp tip of her knife on her neck .
Pierce —
Before anyone could stop her , she pierce her neck . The sharp tip of knife landed on her throat and kept on burying inside till the knife penetrate her throat completely.
From her back of neck appear the knife with fresh blood ozzing and bursting crazily.
[ Sometimes , salvation can also be in form of Death ]
The eyes of Fang Song and other two widen when they saw that lady's body collapse down on the ground .
Their eyeballs trembles , their entire body shook .
This is their first time seeing someone kill themselves on their own accord .
[ Love , hatred , resentment , grief , happiness and everything you see , feel and sense are just a brief illusion to which you take as World for enternity ]
Walking forward , Wudi Egun soon returns to his apathetic self . For him , this was nothing out of expectations. Because , when he enter Dungeon for the very first time , he has already experience them all .
[ Everything has their own respective first experience , you just need to get used to them ]
It's not like , he has not gone through something like this before .
" Don't take this too deeply , it is normal for you to experience something like this once you get to know Human Society much deeper in the future "
Wudi Egun lightly slaps on the back of Fang Song . Waking him from his deep shock .
[ At the very least , you have me here advising and stabilizing you ]
" Get used to it "
Wudi Egun didn't said anything , and left them . Entering much deeper part of Dungeon.
[ Dungeon is not a place to earn merit and honour to your family and Kingdom . It is place where you challenge your mental fortitude , go up against death head on , learn to sacrifice , learn to fight and finally a place for everyone to grow as a Man and as a Warrior ]
"Th , this "
Even if Wudi Egun said not to worry about it , Fang Song and other still could not completely digest what happen just now .
[ If you are here just for life experience , for you to just pass your time and just to earn reputation , I advise you to leave ]
But soon , Wong Xian runs to Wudi Egun , catching up with him .
In her group , only she realize something very serious.
Following Wudi Egun may bring something grand in her future .
For her , Sword means everything .
Her family is family of Swordsman.
And to wield a sword , one has to be Sword themselves. And if one's heart and spirit is soft , how can they be sharp as sword in the future ?
[ But if you have heart to not fear your downfall , courage to stand up after every fall , will to go head on against your own secrect , explore the mystery and Mind to transcend any attachments you desire of , then this is place for you . You the one whom history will note you as — Invincible Warrior ]
That was the moment , she decided to follow Wudi Egun and learn from him .
As for Zhi Shuang and Fang Song , being kind person , they still were in trance.
[ Because true Invincibility isn't about being Undefeatable or Matchless . It means to be Invincible against yourself , winning against your own self . And finally surpassing your limitations ]
