Chereads / surviving as a hero / Chapter 41 - The First Dungeon (finale)

Chapter 41 - The First Dungeon (finale)

(at a certain road)

A really beautiful girl with jade like beauty was walking on the street while talking with her friends....when suddenly some normal looking guy jumped in front of them...

"Please wait I'm desperate!!!"

he said this in full speed....and in response, all the girls cried for help..

"AAAAH!!!! HELP!!! A PERVERT!!!!"

Seeing this, the guy noticed the mob looking as well as moving towards him in anger...

"no!!! wait!!! it's a misunderstanding!!!"

.

.

.

(At the temple)

I opened my eyes after going through that scary nightmare....only to be welcomed with Li Lin's face..

it turned out that I was sleeping on her lap..

"oh....hey~"

I gave her a smirk but in response she gave me a sneer and quickly stood up..

*thump!!*

and my head hit the ground..

"ouch ouch ouch!! is that how you treat an injured guy!!"

"injured?"

As she said this, I noticed that my hands....no my whole body was no longer hurting...

but soon Li Lin started shouting at me...

"do...YOU...have ANY IDEA HOW STUPID THAT WAS!!!"

".....what?"

"staying behind and fighting with....that THING!!!"

"argh....enough about that....and in the first place.....why do you even care whatever happens to me?"

She suddenly got flustered...

'oh....wait a minute.....this expression!!! does it mean!!!'

But soon she looked at me with a straight face nd said...

"O...Of course!!! if something happens to you... I...no we won't be able to save Ran!!! that's why!!"

' .....that make sense.....*sigh*...me and my big brain...'

"hmm..... I see..... anyways we're finally at our destination."

I said as we're now, after all the challenges, were finally at our destination...

"at the end of this hallway, we'll find the final gate-"

"don't tell me it's also some sort of puzzle gate!!!"

"no..... it's just a normal gate.."

"oh.....well then, let's go.."

As we were moving forward, I tried to remember how I survived that golem....after sometime of thinking.... I finally decided to ask Li Lin....but..

"I don't know..... I was waiting for you on the other side of the door when the whole door collapsed and I found you lying down.....as for that monster.....well.... I didn't find it....BUT WHAT I DID FIND WAS!!!"

Her voice was filled with anger as she showed me the broken dagger...

"THIS!!"

"....Oh...so you finally found out..."

Apparently this dagger was an antique gift given to Li Lin by her father....it was her first and last gift given to her directly by him...

"uh.... I'm....sorry.."

She looked at me for sometime, then she tuck the dagger inside her bag...

"it's alright.... it's not like I was gonna use it for anything and my father doesn't really care what I do with it...but you still have to pay me back for it."

"..... I really don't have much money.."

She face palmed herself and took a deep sigh..

"you don't have to pay me with money.."

as she said this.... I grabbed myself, shielding my precious body from this Predator...

"NO ... whatever you're thinking!!! it's not that either.."

After hearing this, I looked relieved..

"oh..."

"just....next time...help me with something..."

"sure!"

and with that, we finally reached infront of the final door...

as I opened the door, Li Lin looked at me and said..

"you're really sure there will be no more traps..."

"yes.....maybe....to be honest, at this point.... I'm not even sure myself.."

"not very reassuring...but okay.."

After we enter the room, we noticed that this room had a stone pedestal and a small golden chest that was placed over it.

"do you think inside that chest..."

"I think so....no I'm sure of it.."

As I open the chest, there was indeed a piece of the world system key...

we both took a sigh of relief as there were no more traps...

After seeing that we're no longer in danger, I moved forward to take the piece.

"here we go~"

But as soon as I touched the piece....my mind became dizzy and my brain started throbbing..

"wha....what the hell?!"

and soon, I started losing my consciousness.

"XIN!! WHAT HAPPENED XIN?!!"

the last thing I heard were both system and Li Lin calling me out....and soon everything blacked out...

.

.

.

As I opened my eyes, I was standing near a glass window of a skyscraper...looking down on the city....with a glass of champagne in my hand??

'what the hell....when did I got here?'

but soon I noticed that I can neither move my body nor say anything....no matter how hard I try...

after sometime, my mouth moved on it's own...

"and what is it that you think you're doing exactly?"

' what...who am I talking to-'

but soon, my question was answered as I....no as original Xin turned back...

infront of him was none other than....Zhen Jia Li....she looked like she was going somewhere with a suitcase...

Soon, Jia Li looked at me....but her eyes were filled with bitterness..

Once again, this gutter of a mouth moved on it's own....

"ANSWER ME!!"

She looked at me for sometime, then she finally opened her mouth...

" .... I have nothing to talk to a trash like you."

her eyes were as cold as ice and with her low voice....she really started to scare me....but not this guy..

"trash like me?? I'M YOUR FUCKING HUSBAND!!!"

'husband?'

This body moved on it's own and grabbed Jia Li's wrist..

"you're not going anywhere!!! you hear me!!"

'WHAT THE FUCK?!! LET HER GO!!!'

"let me go!!"

before she could resist, this body once again moved on it's own and..

*SLAP!!*

after this body slapped her face....there was silence....but soon this body opened its mouth again.

"....you know.... it's my fault... I had been a little too lenient with you..."

soon this body grabbed her face...and as she was trying to close her eyes and look at the other side..

"you know....we haven't done it even though we got married right?"

She quickly opened her eyes and her face became pale...

'fuck!!! move!!!'

no matter how hard I try, I couldn't control this fucking body of mine....no more importantly...

'what the fuck is going on here!!!??'

As this fucking piece of trash was licking his lips while grabbing Jia Li's face, she tried attacking him...but...

"too slow.."

not only did he easily dodged her attack, he also attacked the back of her head.

With this attack, she became unconscious...

' ALRIGHT..... I KNEW THE STORY WAS DARK BUT I DIDN'T KNEW THAT IT WAS THIS DARK!!!'

at this moment, I didn't know if I could....but I was trying every possible way to take back control of my body...

but as I was trying to do this....Xin...this bastard was tying up Jia Li on his bed....and soon she open her eyes...she looked at me....no she looked at this fucking waste of oxygen like a prey looks at the predator..

'FUCKING MOVE!!!'

But before Xin could do anything....he got a call ...

"fuck!!! who is it now!??"

but as he recieved the call... I heard the voice coming from the other side of line clearly...

[boss!!! we're sorry!!! we couldn't stop the intruders!!!]

"heh?"

'what?'

As I was thinking what I just heard.... someone broke the front door and ..

*SLASH!!!*

"huh?"

As Xin noticed what just happened, he released that he lost his right arm...

"ARGHHHHH!!!!!"

'FUCKKKK!!!!!'

I don't know why!!!! but even though I couldn't move this body!!! I could clearly feel the pain...

blood was sprinkling everywhere....

soon, Xin looked up, only to be greeted by the women infront of him...

"hello.... Xin~"

It was Li Lin's, who was holding Xin's Moon Splitter Spear...sullied with Xin's blood..

"LI LIN!!!! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU-"

But before he could finish, I felt a sharp pain on both my leg and my other arm...

"URGHHHH!!!!!!"

This time, I noticed long pointy needles and several of small knives stuck to my left arm and leg...

with no power left in this body, Xin fall down on the ground..

'...fuck...well *pant* as long as this son of a bitch suffers!!!'

Soon I heard another voice....it was Jiang Xie Xing, along with Ying Xiu ya...both of them were looking at me...or more accurately...at Xin...

"will you ever shut up Xin?"

Already dealing with a lot of pain... Xin started shouting...

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU ALL DOING??"

"Doing something that we all should've done long ago.."

Li Lin said with a cold voice....so cold that I could feel Xin's fear....

He was trembling.....

"no....please don't..."

but before he could say anything...

"happy journey Xin~"

Li Lin said with a scary smile as she....

'wait....what the fuck!!??'

FUCKING DECAPITATED HIS/MY HEAD!!!

*SLASH!!!!*

.

.

.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!"

'huh?'

I opened my eyes as I noticed that I was once again last room of this temple...

I was subconsciously grabbing my neck....taking deep breaths.....

soon I noticed Li Lin looking at me with concern...

"Xin?"

she moved towards me....but I don't know why.... I moved back a little...

"....are you okay?"

she asked....

"...*pant*...*pant* yeah....yeah I'm okay..."

I stood up and dust off my back ...

"here...take this.."

Li Lin gave me the water bottle, which I immediately gulped down.

soon I noticed that I still had the first piece of world key in my hand....

"here....you take this...and...be careful okay.."

In response, she nodded..

I immediately handed the piece over to Li Lin...

' I'll tell you everything once we're out from here..'

after a while, Li Lin asked...

"BTW Xin....how do we get out of here now?"

"oh...we have to stand...uh....ah... right here !!"

We both stood over a glowing blue light and before we knew it....we were back to the library...

As we both got out of there, Li Lin looked at the time and froze up....

"what the hell!??"

"what's the matter?"

"the time... it's only been an hour?"

"oh...that's because these dungeon's time work differently.... atleast different than the ones you might read in web novels.."

soon she took a sigh of relief...

"I thought it might have already been afternoon..... luckily it's only been an hour..."

As Li hai said this, I build up courage to finally ask her about something which might be connected to what I just saw...

"uh.... Li Lin....can I ask you something?"

"hmm....yeah sure...what is it?"

"was it you who killed Xin in your previous timeline?"

she looked at me for a minute, then she made a proud face...

"haha yeah I was the one.... I beheaded him with his very Moon Splitter Spear.....but why do you ask?"

why do I ask.....it was obvious.....because according to the original novel.....it was Jia Li that killed Xin!!! not Li Lin!!
