Chapter 59 - Middle Floors

I sheathed my blade and turned towards everyone. Alice didn't seem to surprised at what I did but Serene looked amazed. Morgan on the other hand, seemed amused. He continued walking forwards into the dungeon and passed me.

Alice and Serene ran up to Morgan and started following him. Chuck followed them soon after. I ran after him soon after.

After walking for a bit, we had entered a room with a large staircase that went higher than I could see. Morgan signaled us to follow him as he went up the stairs. We all looked at each other for a moment before shrugging and following him.

The stairs seemed to be never ending as we walked up them. As we continued to walk I noticed that the stairs looked more destroyed than they did when we first started climbing them. As I took one step forward the stair below me suddenly fell off.

"That was way too close for comfort. Hey Morgan, when will we reach the top of the stairs?" I asked.

"Until we reach the middle of the structure. So probably an hour or two I'm guessing. The middle floors are filled with more monsters than the first area so be prepared." Morgan said.

After a couple of hours of walking upwards we had finally reached the top. The area seemed to be more destroyed than the first area I saw. There were cracks in the walls and the red carpet was scattered across the floor.

More red eyes showed up as we walked. Before I could react I saw Alice step up and prepare one of her spells. A small ring appeared before Alice and shot ice in the direction of the monsters. The monsters let out a small groan of pain before collapsing on the floor.

Morgan gave Alice a smile before walking off into the dungeon again. I turned to face Serene and Chuck and saw that they both looked extremely tired.

"How are you guys not out of breath? We just walked up a flight of stairs for a couple of hours and you both seem fine." Serene said, breathing heavily.

I shrugged and helped carry her and Chuck to Morgan. Alice had already went after Morgan leaving us behind. Chuck finally regained some of his stamina and ran after Morgan and Alice.

Serene finally regained her stamina and ran towards Morgan leaving me alone. I let out a small sigh and ran after her. After running for a bit I had finally caught back up to Morgan and the others.

"This room right here always has a big monster inside of it. So be prepared to fight with everything you've got." Morgan said.

"Wait, how much bigger is it than the monsters we fought before? Also, what kind of monster is it?" I asked.

"Nothing too much. It's about ten times the normal size of a monster. For the monster question, it's a Minotaur that dual wields two axes." Morgan said calmly.
