Chapter 51 - The beginning of the dungeon crawl

Reijis anger is boiling over at the sight. The orb plays out anna taking Rosalie. It catches every word every moment. meaning this person stood there hiding. Lilith remakes her humanoid form sensing reijis intense emotions. she steps back grabbing reijis head looking into his eyes.

"You must remain calm reiji. we will get her back somehow. you must get stronger like you were when you first used my powers."

Lilith dissapears back into the gauntlet. her human form can't be taken long. reiji has used almost all his strength and magic. At this point Lilith was using her own life force to appear, and calm reiji.

Reiji drops to his knees holding his head when a familiar voice rings out from around him.

[???] Do you want to be strong?

Reiji stands back up looking around.

[???] Do you want to be strong?

Reiji turns around seeing a shadow in the forest this shadow has deep purple eyes. the voice rings out again.

[???] If you want to be strong visit the dungeons. you will find something there to help you, but be warned the place is crawling with monsters. each floor will be harder than the last.

The shadows form shifts even in sunlight it is pitch dark. It is like shadows come to life. The shadows form a hand with one pointed finger.

[???] To the north is a unnamed dungeon. It holds the answer to who you truly are. But I warn you again this is a dangerous place. you may not like what you find. hahahahaha

the shadow slowly dissipates leaving behind a map carved into the ground. the map shows this dungeon is in the mountain side. near the village he just ran from.

"Why can't it be closer." reiji sighs gripping his hand still heartbroken. He decides as soon as he gets back to his previous strength. he will rescue Rosalie.

"I will rescue her, and I'll do it before I go to the academy. those who took her will pay. I refuse to lose anyone else."

Reiji bids farewell to the townspeople. he turns to the man with the orb with a quizzical expression.

"Who are you?"

the man smiles "I am just a traveler, and a friend."

Reiji looks at the man squinting " I don't think I have ever met anyone who looks like you."

The man shrugs walking away into one of the buildings.

Reiji turns to Rosalie's mother. "I will find a way to return her to you."

She hugs him crying " I just met you not long ago, but I am happy she found such a caring man. please get her back, but not just for my sake for your own as well." she stops hugging him fixing his outfit.

"Time to go on an adventure."

Reiji heads in the direction where the map said the dungeon was located.. commiting it all to memory. He would not miss this chance.

Reiji is walking through the woods with his head down. still angry now that he is safely away from watchers. he screams loudly causing birds to fly off. he punches a iron wood tree. over and over again and again. screaming. the tree eventually falls his knuckles bleeding.

the smell attracts a twin headed wolf. its eyes gleaming it rushes Reiji. reiji turns smashing it into the ground.

reiji jumps in the air causing them to collide. he comes down using white emperors fist. he rains blows upon them. he hits the ground, and through the dust he kicked up a wolf variant appears clawing reiji. his bleeding arm drips, and as soon as the drop hits the ground. reiji grabs both the variants heads crushing them with white emperors fist.

Reijis face darkens as his fist tightens again.

"These monsters aren't nearly strong enough."
