RESUME
"HAHAHA!! That's simple!"
"Come on Old Man, just tell me."
"HAHAHAHA!!! Did the requirement say that you can only defeat enemy boss?" I didn't even think of that without that Old Man it would be taken me much longer or even change my class. If only my Intelligence stat is not locked.
"OH! Thank you, Train"
"Just call me Train thats my name here i hate it when people call me different things."
I didn't even think about doing that, thanks to Train I don't need to change class. I don't want to kill them just because of my requirement but I have to because of the insane difficulty of the requirement and plus boss monsters here are much worse.
Even though i know that they will agree it' still hard for me to kill someone I got close to but in the end I told Ore, Bite, and Fool everything about my requirement and they didn't hesitate to agree like i know they would.
I killed them in one slash to kill them without pain and revived them afterwards. When I killed them I felt like I cheated my way to level up and it is true and I felt bad for still doing that.
With that, I reached level 3 and now I need 90000 pain. For now, I stop experimenting and join the next expedition. We started at day and when we leave the village sleeping monsters outside the village woke up and followed us.
We left at the day because monsters like Trolls and Minotaurs sleep at the day and hunt at night, because of that only monsters like snake and wolves are the problems but compared to our wolves and jakals wolves in this place are slow but at night they are 3 times faster than ours.
3 hours in our journey we let our ride rest while we fiend of the monsters. We continued our journey and we found another river and left a stone pillar if ever we get lost and then we followed the river. 6:00 PM the sky is slowly turning red again, we found a cave and block ourselves. Inside the cave we found materials that we never saw before and that's when we realized that not all items are sol at the limited shop.
I stay at the entrance of the cave while they explore so they less monsters will come for them. While I wait for them I pulled out the journal and like before I couldn't read it.
[Zereth's Journal: Unreadable]
[Unreadable]
[Unreadable]
The journal may be unreadable but there are symbols drawn on the journal. Each symbol is drawn with a circle and it reminds of a magic circle. I tried to draw one of the circles using my blood and it glows like a normal magic circle but because of my inability to read the journal, I don't have an idea what chant is need to activate the magic of the circle.
I lost track of time trying to decipher the magic circle that I fell asleep. In the morning I was wakened up by the shaking of the ground. The team came out running and so we escaped the cave and continued our journey.
Ore said that why the cave was shaking is because the cave is a labyrinth and they cleared it reforming the cave. They were rewarded with vigor dust a material-type item, we don't know yet what it can be used for.
Because of me with them, the expedition lasted for 1 month. 2 weeks into the expedition we finally found the edge of the island. Because of what we saw we returned with despair but I don't plan to live here forever I will find a way to leave and broke the curse. Another 2 weeks have passed we returned to the village.
What they were hoping is a good news but by the look of our faces, they know that we returned with something bad.
"You guys are back," Cladia said shouting but her voice started to go down.
"What happen Pon?" Sed asked and I gave them a straight answer.
"Don't worry if there is a way to enter this place there is also a way to leave."
"Yeah! You're right."
On our journey, we only slept 7 times so our body is worn out that we rest for the whole day. The next we were woken up by monsters attacking our village, The Winged 1 Eyed Octopus or what we called it Cylopus led the monsters.
The Cyclopus released a toxic gas but thanks to the equipment the effects didn't really affect us. Monsters have entered the village and started to reak havoc, my monsters defend of out village while we humans fight the cyclopus. We used spells to attack it because none of us is an archer. With their levels and items, we easily killed the cyclopus and the monsters retreated.
The fight made me realize that because of our equipments fighting them was made easier but my gut is telling me that those monsters are noting and something much big and powerful was about to come.
We look for a cave big enough for us all to stay and we found one and we decided to stay on there for now. The cave was actually bigger than the Hunting Field at the Tutorial dungeon. The only problems are monsters coming out left and right but that was not a problem cause compared to outside monsters here is much weaker because they don't get a power-up from the red moon.
I assigned the Orcs to dig and expand the cave led by Ore. While they were digging they found a dungeon. The dungeon looks like a tutorial dungeon separated into 10 parts but when we enter the dungeon was much bigger inside. We suspect that the dungeon uses space magic to make this type on the dungeon.
When we entered we were greeted by system window.
[You're the First People To Discover The Metal Hazard Dungeon]
The first room was a cube with the wall covered in spikes, the ceiling was dripping blood, on the floor bones is scattered. We left the room and enter the door in front of us, were the monsters are hiding in the dark. The breathing of hungry monsters echoed the room.
"COMBUST" Fool's spell lit up the room and revealed the traps hidden. * Swoosh* The monsters jumped to us revealing a kind of goblin. Fool caught the jumping goblin to his neck and slammed him down.
"Stop, we're both goblins we shouldn't fight." Fool said as he pushed the metal goblin to the ground.
"Ahahaha! You're disappointing you submit to a human and by the looks of it you're a boss!! So stop spouting nonsense, you traitor! Keek kee kee. The metal goblin replied while laughing at Fool.
"There's a reason why this human is my Master. Why don't you join us and let my master show you what you want?"
"Sir, Fool can you please finish talking to him these goblins are too heavy!?" Sed asked Fool while they're fighting the goblins.
"Keek kee kee Fool Eh? Then Fool enlightens me why you submit to a human. Oops tell me next time," The Metal Goblin said as he strengthen his body freeing himself from Fool's hand and headbutting him.
"Fool are you okay?"
"Yes, Master!"
"Fine, I'll tell you next time. It's not like you will really die. DARK SAUCER, TIME BOMB." Fool replied as he cast a spell aiming at the metal goblin blowing him up.
"Master, you can kill them."
After we kill all the goblins in the second room we advance on to the third room where we found minotaurs. Unlike the Minotaurs outside that use hammers, here they use a double-headed axe. The minotaurs charged at us head-on and Ore stepped in and use a Reflected Shield where attacks that hit the shield will be reflected.
The minotaurs hit the shield and were concussed where we killed them. Another difference about minotaurs here is that their intellect is much lower than those outside. We easily killed the rest of the minotaurs.
When we are about to enter the next room we heard footsteps from behind that slowly getting much louder. After 30 seconds we saw that the goblins respawned and followed My smell.
"Miss me Fool?! Keek kee kee!!" Said the same Metal Goblin that headbutted Fool.
"Ready to listen now bird brain?!" Fool replied.
"KYEEEK" The Metal Goblins charged at us but Fool easily killed them. After that, we entered the next room where light is present even without a source. There is nothing in the room but another door where red smoke is coming out and an audible snore.
When we enter the room we saw the Boss sleeping. The Boss looked like a moose with light green fur, its antlers are made out of blue metal. We all cast and attack our most powerful skill and spells but its skin changed to a scale that looked similar to a lizardman.
The Moose woke up and open its eye without a pupil. The moose jumped and slam the ground that shook the ground.
"That moose is blind!" I told them. I know what it feels like to be blind and be hurt by someone we don't see taking advantage of our weakness. "Wait! Don't attack it, I'll try to make him calm just give me a protection spell and healing." I told them as I slowly get closer to it.
It's stomping won't stop and it is difficult for me too get closer. We kept quiet and slowly it stop stomping it thought that we left. I stretched my hand and slowly walk and touched its head. Upon contact, it stood up and started to stomp again but I managed to grab onto it. While I grab on I petted him and it start to calm down.
"Master!"
"Shhh." It calmed down it's his first time feeling love again for thousand of years. It was scared trembling whenever he heard voices. Unlike me, he doesn't have anyone here, all alone unable to leave this for thousands of years.
I changed my class to back to a tamer and tamed him. I named him Liant a combination of Little and Giant, it reminded me of how scared he is like a kid while having a giant body. Taming him counted as defeating the boss thus clearing the dungeon.
When we left the boss room we were greeted by the metal goblins.
"You defeated that Beast?" The metal goblin said while he stepped back and being very wary.
"You're wrong. Master gave him freedom." Fool replied.
"Can you really do that!?"
"Yes, Come." I kneeled and offered my hand. When I tamed him the other goblins were shocked after he bowed down and thanked me.
"It's True the curse is gone!" He cried in happiness now that he will be able to leave this narrow dark place. After I tamed all the monsters we returned back to our underground village. I was surprised how fast they were able to build so many structures in just a few hours.
I named the metal goblins and Metal the voice of the goblin said that he was picked by them to be their leader because of strength and intellect despite not being a boss. Liant became friend with the other animals and I also thought it goblin language and echolocation.
When he used echolocation he found the other animals and run towards them, he easiliy made friend with them.
"Master, thank you for giving us freedom but may I ask why we are underground?" Metal asked.
"Ah yeah, You may have noticed before that you are attracted to me right?"
"Yes, Is there a problem about that if so I'm sorry."
"No it's fine, We are here because monsters are attracted to me, we lived at the surface before but we were attacked by the monsters above. Those monsters are much powerful because of the red moon."
"Red Moon?"
"In this island, we don't have a sun we only have moons. At day the normal moon appears that make the day dark and at night the red moon comes out that make monster's stats doubled."
"So that's why I understand now. Thank you, Master." This guy is exactly like Fool, He suddenly talks formally to me.
"Metal Did you also from the same planet as Fool?"
"No. I don't remember anyone named Fool.
"So where did you come from?"
