Chapter 18 - Chapter 6: A Legend's beginning

DANTE SMITH'S POV

"Dungeons aren't all that bad once you're prepared", I say while standing over the pit of lava and watching the remaining bodies dissipate beneath the surface.

{HOW THE FUCK?}

"It's what happens when foolish mortals face a god."

{For the last fucking time, you're not a God.}

"says who?"

{SAYS ME}

"Another mortal hating on godly power"

{Ugh, how did we get to this?}

30 minutes earlier.

"I have to what?", I ask, more surprised at what came out of his mouth than the fact he is a six-foot-tall red-talking lizard.

"Get a party; Ya can't enter without one," replied the ugly-looking lizard.

{At least he didn't talk about your ID or the fact that you're a child.}

"Ah, fuck!!" I say it in frustration.

{HAHA}

"Where am I going to find gullible people in the Nomad kingdom?"

"Guess it's another trial as I ascend to Godhood."

{HAH- Wait what}

"Well, I just got an idea."

"Instead of the usual gullible dumbasses, we will aim for others who think I'm gullible because I'm a kid."

{We're just ignoring what you said-}

"About me ascending to Godhood?" I say it with a smirk.

{You have a God complex, don't you?}

"It's not complex; I'm just stating facts."

"Hey kid, we saw your whole fiasco with the dungeon officials," said a lanky, pale-looking guy with long, pointy ears and an annoying mob character voice.

{Bingo}

{Now all you need is for his crew to be as stupid as him.}

No need to see them; they probably are.

{Why do you say so?}

They sent him to me to scout me If I'm gullible.

{Smart}

"I just joined today, so I don't know what to do," I say this to sound like I'm on the verge of tears.

"Don't worry, me and my crew will take you in." He says his voice is practically laced with mischief.

{Great, he is an idiot as well as a cliche mob.}

Only natural

{That was an I'm a God reference, wasn't it?

You can learn? That's great

{....}

We are led to a corner near the dungeon entrance, and since the square in front of it is relatively big, it would be hard for them to check for small kids or people being tricked.

{Smart}

"For them," I whisper under my breath.

"What was that?" Mr. mob guy says

{Nice naming skills so original.}

He is surprisingly sharp.... Physically at least, this isn't going to be easy. His party is probably the same, but if that's the case, the bigger the risk, the bigger the reward, but no unnecessary risk. I have already planned all of this.

"Nothing, just a bit scared; this is my first dungeon," I reply, trying to look embarrassed.

"Don't worry, we will take care of you," sounding as sinister as hell.

Anyone who fell for this though it was natural selection.

{RIP BOZO'S}

We finally meet up with the party, and from the get-go, it was obvious who was the leader, and all their abilities and classes were obvious just by their armor and dressing. I shouldn't underestimate them, though.

I greet all of them with a fake name and make-up, and they return with their names, which I don't remember, so I'll just call them by what they look like or their class.

The Weird archer, The prideful mage, The crazy tanker, The asylum taker, The cat thief, and Mr. Mob boss

Now that we have done the needless introduction, we can start the carnage.

I sneak by the dungeon official with their help, definitely killing him later, and we enter the dungeon.

May the legend of a God's ascent begin.

{Shut the fuck up, seriously.}
