Ogre King's Swamp was known as the current most high level area in Divine Domain. If the monsters there doesn't scare you then terrain can.
Most players don't have the guts to go here even if they have a thousand guts. Yet, one certain young man was casually running around chasing a black rabbit around the swamp.
Giann huffed while chasing the black rabbit. He took a breath while he holding his thighs and surprisingly, the rabbit looked back and had a smug expression as if mocking Giann's existence.
"This little cunt!" Giann bellowed as veins started popping on his forehead.
Snap!
Thump!
Thump!
Sounds of marching resounded around Giann.
Giann immediately used Dashing Link and teleported on a tree next to him, appearing in the highest point.
The black rabbit also sensed the danger and immediately fled using its fastest speed.
Giann saw flashing lights on the forest. Giann's five senses already reached a great level since his training with his parents required strict rules.
Giann saw a huge amount of Ogres marching heading to deep into the forest.
"What the hell?" Giann's interest rose. His senses were telling him to follow the Ogres but a part of him was wary.
Curiousty eventually got the best of him and immediately followed the Ogres from a certain distance.
Unknowingly, three people were also following the ogres in a certain distance.
The Ogre King's Swamp inhabitants were not only Ogres many monsters also live in the Swamp. One had to be known that Ogre King's Swamp is a very large area surrounded by mountains.
News of a treasure appearing awakened some old monsters...
On a certain area of the Ogre King's Swamp...
Bang!
A huge minotaur smashed the table next to him reducing the wooden table to dust.
"Tch! Just because this area is called Ogre King's Swamp doesn't mean that ogres are the true rulers here." the huge minotaur snorted while releasing an aura of a Tier 4.
"Bodrack!" the minotaur yelled.
"Yes, master." a minotaur who was slightly smaller appeared while kneeling.
"Prepare and gather our strongest bulls! Let's show these other old fogeys not to mess with the Minotaur Clan!" the huge minotaur commanded while showing a fierce expression.
"Yes, master." Bodrack said as he got up and left.
Seeing Bodrack leaving the huge minotaur then turned to a corner and took out a ring. The ring gave off a powerful and bloodthirsty aura around it.
"HAHA! With this my strength should be on par to those who just broke through Tier 5. Let's see who could beat me then." the huge minotaur laughed while his aura around him got stronger and stronger.
On the same time and on a different place...
"Qarak! Our scouts detected movement from the ogres and the minotaurs." a lizardman with a scar on his face spoke while staring a slim figure in front of him.
"It seems that they are very desperate for treasures. They didn't even bother to message me huhuhu....well why dont you and I go there ourselves." the slim figure of a lizardman chuckled.
"Yes!" the lizardman with scar nodded his head.
"I might as well teach them "Sharing is caring." Qarak grinned as he extended his scaly hand and a halberd magically appeared.
...
Giann,who had no idea that three monsters were also going in the same direction, was happily following the ogres until they arrive at a mountain and he saw a huge stone door imbedded on the mountain.
Giann who stood on top of a tree looked closely and to his shock, it was a dungeon!
[How is this possible?! I thought monsters couldn't even enter the dungeon!] Giann exclaimed in his mind but then...
"the players you encounter there are natives of Aegnap..." resounded on Giann's head but it was a far off topic from what he saw but thinking about it some time Giann thought it was possible.
When the ogres arrived at the huge stone door, they pushed it using their immense strength and look and behold, a light red portal appeared.
"Let's go! We can't waste anymore time!" the Chief of the ogres said without bothering to inspect the door they entered the door without hesitation.
Whoosh!
All the figures disappeared...
Giann who stood on a tree nearby looked at the door expressionlessly but inside his mind...
[Fuck! Why did have to be a Code Light Red! If it was a Code Black I would have a 20% chance to survive but a Code Light Red? Wait...even if it was a Code Black I would be dead either way right?] Giann's thoughts led him astray and the more he thought about it the more he lost motivation to go to the dungeon.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Three figures appeared in front of the dungeon...
The young man with long black hair and the beautiful girl appeared at the same time with the young man with red hair.
Both the parties was shocked...
"What the hell is the champion of the Sovereign of Greed doing here?" the young man with red asked with a hint of shock still remained in his face.
"I couldn't say more, Champion of the Sovereign of Wrath. What are you also doing here?" the young man with long hair also asked with a shocked expression.
"Sovereign?" the beautiful girl said with a confused expression.
Giann who was lost in his mind was woken by this...
One shock after another came dropping down on Giann...
Champions!
[The fuck?! I thought we wouldn't encounter until the Sovereign's Tournament!] Giann's face twist on this sudden event.
Giann just continued eavesdropping...
"Why don't we team up temporarily? You know the dangers of entering a Code Light Red Dungeon despite being a Tier 0." the young man with red hair said with smile.
The young man with long black hair furrowed his eyebrows immediately hearing this sudden alliance.
"C'mon since we have the same goal why don't we split 50-50? That's a great deal innit?" the young man with red hair continued to persuade while sweeting the deal.
After a few seconds...
"Fine but no tricks or else." the young man with long black hair agreed while looking at the latter with a serious expression.
While the two young men agreed the beautiful just stood there dazed and confused.
The three then entered the portal...
Giann appeared at the spot where the three people stood.
Giann looked at the light red portal in front of him with wariness and anticipation.
When he was about to back out he suddenly remembered his favorite quote from one of his favorite songs...
"Look If you had one shot or one opportunity to seize whatever you wanted. One moment would you capture it? Or let it slip?"
Giann who stood there suddenly remembered his sister, Yumi, and his family here. The feeling of wanting to become stronger overcame him and went closer to portal and he was covered by light of the portal teleporting him inside the dungeon...
After Giann went in, a group of minotaurs appeared and followed and two lizardmen also appeared and followed.
"This is gonna be troublesome. Haha!" a no face person in a suit appeared in front of the portal and just chuckled then disappearing.
