Ray and Ellen listened to the teacher, and their expression turned gloomier and gloomier with every word he said.
" *Sigh* So at the very end, it was all because of me. I'm sorry, Ray."
To make it short, the explanation was like this.
Elin was kidnapped during the time she changed into a choir outfit, and the kidnapper left a message that said, "If you want Elin back, Ellenb must come to the newly opened dungeon in the city center alone."
A typical kidnapping plot, but somehow also the most effective.
On the other side, the teachers also tried to look for Ellen's trace, but the result was no avail.
They were not a professional in this, and even with every one of them trying their best, they still couldn't get any result.
Back to Ray and Ellen, Ellen has decided that she would come alone to the Dungeon, fulfilling the condition of the kidnapper.
For this, of course, Ray offered to come along to guarantee their safety. However, Ellen rejected it.
Her current priority was Elin's safety, and she would not want to anger the kidnapper by bringing Ray with her.
In the end, Ray chooses to agree to Ellen's decision. Elin was firm on this, and Ray could no longer change her mind.
He told Ellen to be careful and left the school.
********
Hehe, would Ray really let Ellen to bear all the burden for this?
Of course not. Ray knew its useless to convince Ellen, so he would do it his way.
He chose to go into his Dungeon first and buy some props.
[ Welcome back, host. Do I have anything to help you?]
' System, give me some clothes to hide my identity, and also a hiding skill.'
[ DING!!! For the clothes to hide your identity, they will be priced at 200 DM Currencies. But for the hiding skill, it seems the host doesn't need it anymore. Since your camouflage skill has leveled up to Rank-E, the host could now hide himself from the enemy with an equal class to the host.]
Hearing this, Ray couldn't help but be shocked, and a smile immediately surfaced on his face.
He tried to concentrate his mind, and then it happened.
His body turned invisible from outside.
' Nice! Then buy me clothes and a mask system.'
[ Affirmative host! The amount of DM will be immediately deducted from the host's balance.]
*Ziinggg*
A golden light shone upon Ray, and when it disappeared, he had been changed into a new pair of clothes.
It was a white tuxedo with red leaves pattern, complete with a tie and shoes, making Ray looked like a gentleman ready for a party.
And on his face, he was covered by a white mask that hid half of his face, concealing his identity so as not to be easily seen by others.

While Ray went back into the Morningwood dungeon. Ellen also didn't stay idle and immediately took off to the Dungeon in the city center.
It was a lie if she said that she didn't feel disappointed at all when Ray just leave like that. But now, she chose to put it on the back of her mind as her priority was to save Elin's first.
' Humph, just as I thought. There is no good man in this world.'
Soon, she arrived in the Dungeon in the city center. But contrary to yesterday's scenery where it was packed with people, the entrance of the Dungeon was now desolate. Leaving only a few Mahkota corporations' people to guard the outside.
" I'm here as promised. So tell me, where is Elin?"
Ellen came forward and said with a loud voice. From what she has seen, the guards should be Mahkota corporations' people. So even though she didn't know why the Mahkota corporation wanted to have a conflict with her, she still chose to abide by the agreement.
Not long after, a man fully clad in black with Mahkota corporations badge on his chest came out and said.
" Well, well. Thank you for coming here, Ms. Ellen. But for this transaction to go on, you must enter the dungeon gate."
It was common knowledge that ordinary civilians should not enter the Dungeon Gate, so when the man said this, Ellen's expression turned gloomy.
" You, what do you want?"
" Heh, since you will be dead soon, then it should be no problem to tell you this. Here, do you think all of us are Mahlota corporations people? No, they are not worthy. It's just, what would your family thought when you were found inside a dungeon dead, with the Mahkota's heir inside. Hehe, it would be really interesting to see."
Ellen's expression instantly turned gloomy for this. She had thought they were scheming something, but she never thought that they would implicate the family behind her.
But just when her mind was in conflict about whether to run away or save Elin, she has been dragged away by one of the people disguised as the guard.
" You, what are you-"
" Please calm down, Ms. Ellen. At least with that, you could still keep your dignity."
Obviously, Ellen got petrified hearing this. For her, her dignity as a woman was taboo and hearing that they wanted to take her dignity if she resisted, tears started flowing from Ellen's eyes.
" Hehe, good woman. At least you will die with your dignity still intact."
Looking at Ellen no longer resisting, the leader then throws Ellen inside the dungeon gate. Finishing his task here.
" Nice job, guys. Now we can leave."
Unbeknownst to them, there was an invisible person eyeing them up from far. And looking at them dropping their guard, Ray knew it was his chance.
He rushed at the dungeon gate, and with one full swoosh, he entered the dungeon without anyone noticing.
