" that lady didn't deserve death "
[ Guilt , Pity , Sympathy , all those emotions wash over you once your heart feels injustice for someone ]
"I can tell it , although I am stranger to her , I am sure she wished to live "
Fang Song protest over the death of an innocent lady , his heart being soft , he is extremly weak to injustice. So his heart is now burning with grief and hatred .
[ A human has everchanging heart to which human themselves can't keep check , because a heart does not just have a single emotions to begin with ]
Looking at the young boy equip with Heavy Golden armor , Wudi Egun was silently resting close to small campfire which Zhi Shuang lit up few hours ago.
It is night and the cave is extremly dark , it as if darkness has terrorize the world of light .
" Don't feel sad , it is not your fault that you could not help that lady "
Trying to solace Fang Song , Zhi Shuang warmly embrace Fang Song in her comfort .
[ When you feel your mood up , you feel happy and when it is vice versa , you feel sadness ]
" Yes Fang Song , sister Zhi Shuang is right . It is not your fault that she died . So don't feel upset and stop blaming yourself "
Since Wong Xian is childhood friend of Fang Song , she deems it is her responsibility to solace Fang Song .
"But still "
With that sad eyes , suffering from some downfall , Fang Song still felt it was his fault for failing to save someone .
As the descendant of Golden Lion Family , he must have heart of a Hero . Yet , a Hero failed to save an innocent victim .
[ This Emotions runs deep down in your blood if you are taught about something very deeply . Emotions of superiority , emotions of inferiority , Emotions of neutrality . Everything depends on how you are taught to build your perception ]
"Hey Client Fang Song "
Finally Wudi Egun fail to hold himself back , with a dull voice , he called out for Fang Song .
Upon hearing Wudi Egun ,Fang Song looks at Wudi Egun . Followed by the remaining two .
" I don't know what you are going through "
With a monotonous attitude , with the same emotionless voice , Wudi Egun continues .
[ Since this man has a Perception of [ Hero ] , his Perception is that of [ I Am The Only One Who Can Do This And That , If Not Me , Then Who Will Stand Up For Justice ? ]
" And I don't even want to know ?"
"Sir Sun , what are you — "
"Shut up "
Fang Song wanted to say something but Wudi Egun ask him to shut up , followed by a serious speech .
[ Since that is the case , I think this delusionist needs a slap that will help him wake up ]
" Magicskill World , population over 200 billion humans , over 1 billion Elves , over 30 billion Demi - Humans "
" Closely to 60 billion monsters , around 3 million Dungeon , 15 billion Demons and finally more than 5 trillion undiscovered existences are there out in this world "
" Combining with the entirety of this Universe , there are uncountable entities and species , materials and objectives , innumerable discoveries yet to be discover "
"And talking about Magicskill World , the crime rate ranges over 80 percent , Law and Oder protects the humanity only to tiny amount of 3 - 5 percent "
" And those only includes Royalties , Nobles , Important Leaders and Leading Stars "
" In a world where 80 percent are all Crimes and Injustice , there are undeniable truth of 10 - 15 percent of death "
" And as for remaining one , they are all counted as indiscriminate judgement "
Listening to what Wudi Egun said , suddenly the atmosphere inside dungeon began to change .
[ Someone with Heroic Mindset / Mentality is very kind and benevolent , soft and innocent , always Angel - Like - Existence to everyone . But the harsh truth is , even a Devilking once was an Archangel ]
Tense and suffocating , the wind chill their bones and the ground froze their bodies .
But the main thing effecting them was the words said by Wudi Egun which impacted their heart directly .
Although Wudi Egun is not that much older than those three , his every words holds the undeniable truth of world .
[ If one believes them to be Hero , they want to be worship as a Hero for eternity , even after their death . And if not , their unshakable Ego and Narcissistic Personality Disorder which they have subconsciously develop within them will be injured ]
"First of all , normally the number of death that happens in the world is around more than ten thousand . And that is a natural . "
" As for while exploring the Dungeon , the rate of death jumps the number of 30 000 "
" Can you , a pathic and weak person , who is not even qualify to enter the Social Network , even protect them all ?"
With a disdain in his words , sarcastically Wudi Egun conveys his current emotions to Fang Song .
Reading on Amazon or a pirate site? This novel is from Royal Road. Support the author by reading it there.
[ And the only cure for someone like Fang Song is to , make him understand and realize the harsh and cruel reality before it's too late ]
" Sir Sun , stop it . It is too much . How can you — "
"Silence "
Zhi Shuang stands up and tries to defend Fang Song who has just gotten a very powerful blow to his pride and self-esteem , but Wudi Egun coldly glare at her .
As a descendant of Golden Lion Family , a proud Duchy of Saint Lord Kingdom , Fang Song is use to only hearing priase and compliment .
Since his childhood he has always been [ Flower ] of the family .
So , listening to how Wudi Egun talk to him , he truely receive critical blow in his Heroic Heart .
He was stun there on his original spot while looking at Wudi Egun who was resting not far away from them .
[ I don't mind if someone plays a Hero , a Savior or even a God . But I will mind it when they tries to take this childish Chuunibyou to next level in my presence ]
Meeting his deadfish eyes with Zhi Shuang , behind the helmet , Wudi Egun coldly continues.
" I think there is some misunderstanding "
Turning his head around , his gaze fell on Fang Song .
" We are not here to play Hero - Hero "
" As someone who takes pride in his job , I am here to [ Escort ] you in your grinding "
[ A Dungeon , this people are still too naive . Did they thought they will see some romance and brotherhood inside a Dungeon ? With such mentality , even a Lion will fail to be a King . Let alone a weak humans like them who are used to luxury afford by their families ]
" We are not responsible for saving someone , and even if we want to , we are at the bottom level of foodchain where we can't even protect ourselves "
[ Instead of them , those Prince and Princess who schemes and kills down their own bloodkins are much better and qualified to be a Hero ]
" So if you want to be a Hero , at the least , please get fucking strong first before talking about a very important responsibility one can shoulder "
[ Atleast those Royalties are not restricted by their comfort and their luxuries . They knows how to save their ass and how to decapitate others head ]
With that , without even giving an opportunity to Fang Song to talk back , Wudi Egun just laid down on the ground and turns opposite to Fang Song .
His back facing the group of trio .
"Don't mind the words of Sir Sun , I know he must have said it to you so you don't feel upset about that incident "
Zhi Shuang sits next to Fang Song , with an awkward smile on her face , she tries to lessen the mood created by Wudi Egun .
Lightly shaking his head ,Fang Song force a smile . His lips twists and turns .
" Don't worry , it is not as if he said anything wrong "
He tried to calm down himself but his heart was still shaking . It seem in the middle of an ocean , a pebble of stone has just weaver the heart of ocean .
Creating an endless wave of restless tsunami .
" Fang Song , here eat this . It will atleast calm your mind "
Wong Xian took out a strawberry cave from her Spatial Pouch and offers it to Fang Song .
Feeling the care , concern and warmth from Wong Xian and Zhi Shuang , Fang Song felt his heart sweet .
Finally he felt his emotions calm down . And soon they began to enjoy the strawberry cake .
"Get ready "
But in the midst of their sweet moment , they heard Wudi Egun serious alert .
Wudi Egun woke up , stands up and draws his sword . Pointing at the dark area that leads to core of Dungeon , Wudi Egun stands on battle position .
"Sir Sun , what is going on ?"
Standing up , everyone also prepare themselves .
"Everyone , get yourself prepare . Don't get yourself killed . A bunch of Monsters are heading this way "
Before setting their temporary sojourn , Wudi Egun has already install his [ Minor Summon : Night Bud ] around the Dungeon tunnels , per 30 meter distance away from them .
But now , the scouting team of Night Bud which were responsible of patrolling east tunnel suddenly felt alert .
Their Night Sense and Vision track down bunch of C Rank , D Rank and E Rank Monsters running toward their direction .but since a Monster have high level of Sensitivity to their surrounding , it is meaningless for them to hide .
But why would a Monster in a horde will want to come out of their territory without any reason .
"Unless "
A possibility suddenly appear in his head , Wudi Egun frowns slightly .
It seem this Dungeon has been capture by Dungeon Mafia .
A Dungeon Mafia are those who are self proclaim master of Dungeon .
Although a Dungeon Master has authority over Dungeon Core , this Dungeon Mafia are just bunch of ruffians who likes to cause trouble in Dungeon .
That explains the reason why those naked victims were raped inside a Dungeon and why was there trace of Human Energy he felt since he has enter this Dungeon .
"Grawlll— "
A gigantic ant with 4 meter large body suddenly jumped out of the darkness .
Swoosh—
Swinging his sword , the blade prints arc light in the air . But when the sword lands on that gigantic ant body , the hard exoskeleton only manage to lit a spark of flame .
" Sir Sun "
Fang Song quickly reacted and charged his sword on his enemy . He ran to Wudi Egun , in attempt on aiding Wudi Egun , he endeavor his sword to decapitate the head of that gigantic ant — Eco - Camponotus .
Eco - Camponotus are a very dangerous Ant Race Monster with strenght that far exceeds a Human . They can lift things which are hundred times their own weight .
And even the weakest Eco - Camponotus have weight weighing over 300 kg !!
It means their strenght ranges at the minimum of over 30 Tons !!
That is why they are classify as C Rank Monsters since their early adulthood !!
"Thank the God !? There is no Eco - Camponotus Queen or else this would have been my last day !!"
Under a heavy breath , Wudi Egun said to himself .
But it seem he has thank the God too early .
Behind the Eco - Camponotus he and Fang Song were engaging with , there appear ten more Eco - Camponotus.
And what worse of all is , there seem to be bunch of twenty or so Mountain Canis Lupus . A Wolf Race Monsters , their biting power carries over 5 tons or even more .
They can tear down weapon and armor with ease and no efforts . Their speed , Unrival .
A Monster with Animal and Insect Race are extremely different from those with no specific Races . Because even an ordinary animals already carries superiority against Humans .
And a Race Type Monster are just their evolutionary version of an ordinary version .
" FLAME — "
"Stupid idiot !! Don't cast a Wide Range - Class Offensive Magic inside a narrow Dungeon . Are you trying to get us killed ?"
Zhi Shuang panicks when she sees horde of Monsters charging on them , since this is her first time clashing with a Monster , she intensively follows what she has learn in Magic Academy .
But after noticing her reckless action , Wudi Egun yells on her .
Trying to use a large scale magic is equivalent to ignorantly courting death .
" Try to use Protection Magic on your allies while keeping eyes around the surrounding . Alert us whenever we are not focus on our opening "
Wudi Egun commands her and gives her instructions while battling against this absurdly strong Eco - Camponotus .
Their Exoskeleton are as thick and indestructible as a Diamond .
" Wind Blessing "
Zhi Shuang bless her allies with her Blessing Magic . And soon everyone feels as if their bodies have just been granted with extra layer of skins .
" How the hell do we even kill this Monster ?"
Seeing his sword do no damages on Eco - Camponotus , Fang Song was truely horrified .
Wong Xian used her [ Sword Aura ] , embedding her longsword and enchanting the ability of her sword .
Swish —
Tearing the wind , her sword landed on the hard head of Eco - Camponotus . Yet only a clanking noise echoes in the chaos .
" This is absurd"
She complains after seeing her attack being useless on this absurdly strong bitch !!
Baam—
Unlike her attack , the attack from Eco - Camponotus was genuinely powerful to the point she was thrown away with a single fist .
She flew till she crashed on the cave wall , creating a spiderweb 🕸️ devastation imprinted on the wall .
" Sister Wong !!"
Zhi Shuang hurridly ran to Wong Xian , Wong Xian collapse down on the ground . Thanks to Wind Blessing , her injuries are not serious .
Clutching her stomach , Wong Xian coughs fresh bloods .
"Damn it !! That fresh bloods will bring more disadvantage to us "
Even when fighting against powerful enemy like Eco - Camponotus , Wudi Egun was still keeping his eyes on his clients .
But seeing fresh blood cough out by Wong Xian , he cursed out loud .
Fresh blood will no doubt call for those Blood Thirsty Monsters , attracting large number of calamity .
" We need to finish this as fast as we can "
If a Werewolves or those Vampire were to get attracted by the fresh blood , it will be no less than a nightmare .
" Nullification"
Using Nullification on someone who is C Rank , he can nullify their original stats by 50 percentage . Half the original amount .
Soon he began to reveal slight advantage against those Eco - Camponotus and Mountain Canis Lupus .
Crack —
When Wudi Egun saw a group of three Mountain Canis Lupus jump on him with that 3 meter large body of theirs , he hurridly strech his left arm forward with attempt of blocking .
But their sharp and powerful biting ferocity bites his left arm . Even after completely shattering his vambrace , their teeth and fans still manage to dig inside his left arm .
"Mmmmm "
Clenching his lower lips tightly , Wudi Egun suppress his painful moan . Blood begins to bleed through his lips .
"Fuck off "
Resembling the Wrath Demon , Wudi Egun exudes Aura of Death and Wrath .
Swoosh —
With single swing of his sword , he tears the bodies of those three Mountain Canis Lupus .
The powerful swing materialize into a crescent blade that is as flat and thin as dust particles.
The windblade keeps on soaring forward while completely tearing the bodies of Mountain Canis Lupus from the center line .
Their upper body and lower body falls separately , endlessly oozing fresh blood .
"Huff "
"Huff"
Wudi Egun breathing was ragged and uneven , he slwoly began to feel dizzy . The saliva of Mountain Canis Lupus has ability to cause haigh level rabies on their prey .
Wudi Egun soon feels his stability distorting .
Hitting his own head , he tries to resist against the alien force that enter his body .
" Universal Eyes "
His pupils constricted and soon his eyes turns blank , revealing Universe within his eyes .
Heavenly Bodies , Celestial Planes , Stars , Solar Systems , Galaxies and Endless Void , the entire Universe was within his eyes .
"Absolute Recovery "
Using the power of Universal Eyes , he borrow power from Universe and used [ Absolute Recovery ]
And soon , every stats of his were refresh , he recover quickly . But since he can not maintain Universal Eyes for long , he soon deactivates the supreme power of his eyes .
" Because I acted recklessly , I fail to activate World Energy Sphere "
Because of sudden ambush from those Monster , he didn't receive any opportunity to activate his World Energy Sphere which is a Barrier Class Skill . In return he got bitten by those ferocious Monster .
While on the other side , Fang Song actives his [ Golden Lion Spirit ]
A Divine Image begins to condense behind his body and materilize into Divine Avatar , an Astral Projection with power beyond the Host .
" Golden Lion Roaring Strike "
A royal energy begins to erupt out of Fang Song body , particles of Golden Energy starts to surround him and illuminate Golden Lion that rules over Monsters and Demons .
Lifting his sword up , Fang Song gathers and condense his power within his sword , and finally strikes down his enemy .
Roar of a lion capable of suppressing God and Demon echoes inside the Dungeon tunnel , resonating with Law Of World .
Soon that single strike flies in form of Golden beam .
Boom—
When the Golden beam landed on the enemy , the Dungeon tunnels blasted with Divine Might .
