I continued my journey in dungeon while I was not getting to troubled even fighting one rank above me because of my speed was above them even if they wheir of high rank.
While outside of the dungeon , In the town.
"So have you confirmed, Is the rumors true ?"asked a beast-kin man to another beast-kin man, Who stood in front of him
While he made a trouble face to reply his boss question but knew better to say what's true than to make him wait " Y-yes boss the rumors are true but we don't know still that if your brother is dead or not, Because I have checked your brother's hideout as you said and found only 3 of our man's and 1 Woman that they have captured before nothing else. And From them I got to know that he haven't returned yet after he went to capture the group that was recently spotted their. When I checked the discreption it matches with those merchant group that are responsible for this rumors very well but we don't know if your brother is dead or no yet, So we can sent our man's to search for him."
Been heard everything, Boss said," No need to bother sending our man, He is probably dead or else he would have lazed around with that Whore in hideout rather than wondering around all this time," He stood up, Broke the table into pieces through his fist in anger. Than continued "It would be waste of time to search for his dead body now, You go and find everything about that damn demon, I don't belive that he is in higher rank than me if what people say, that he traveled from the low size town. I would not let go of him," in voice full of anger.
"Boss I have already learned everything about him by bribing one of the Receptionist man of the guild, Who have heard everything when they where reporting their mission. That demon is sure not above your rank, He is at Rank 14 from what I have heard and currently he had left the town for dungeon and its already 4 days since he haven't return yet." He replied, before coming here he have already done his investigation about that demon.
He knew that his boss would probably give him order to check everything about this Demon, Since he had stayed beside him for many years he got to know something about him after all this time.
Boss also got impressed by him but frowned when he heard that Demon Rank, "Are you sure that he is only at Rank 14?" He asked just to confirm he heard right.
He replied instantly without hesitation ,"Yes boss I am sure of it,"
Boss muttered in low voice ,"If he is really at Rank 14 than how could he defeat My brother or to be precise How could they still be alive, If they had encounter him?"
Even though his voice was low it didn't escape from the beast-kin rabbit ears, He didn't understood what his boss meant by that, So he asked "What Does that mean boss!"
He explained ,"Recently I got the news of my brother breaking through Rank 15, And if you say that Demon was at Rank 14 than how could he win against him. Have you heard that someone was with them that had same or above rank than him?" He didn't doubted that he was lying because he was one of the trusted man he had, but thought that he had made a mistake in something else.
The guy was startled a little hearing about that boss brother have broken to Rank 15, Since he didn't knew about this but soon thought about everything that guy from the guild told him, And remembered a important point that he told him but he thought the guild guy was just bragging about that demon, So didn't took it seriously but now thought otherwise.
"No boss I am sure of it that their was no one else rather than the demon and a merchant who was only at rank 9, But I remember now that the guy also told me that the Demon could also use magic, So maybe this is the reason of your brother defeat."
Boss exclaimed in shock ,"Whattttt he could use magic, been only at rank 14. How could this be possible, 'Hhhhmmmm, No wonder he could kill my brother." He couldn't help but feel shock hearing this, Because it was queit rare for someone to learn magic been only at Rank 14. He went in deep thought to what to do about this demon, But he couldn't just let him go.
After him been messing with them, First by killing his brother and second Elaminating his entire bandit group that he created to rob all the possession of the traveler who travels from small town to this town that helped him earn so much MS that had made him quiet rich and helped him keep this lackeys all around him to do anything he ask and live a life of luxury. But that all went to ruin all because of this one person. That made his blood boil in anger and only would calm when he kills that demon with his own hands.
So he made the call that he thought was brilliant ,"It doesn't matter even if he could use magic that all be worthless if he doesn't get time to charge the magic, We would ambush him after he comes out from the dungeon and kill him. Go call all our man we would leave right away."
The guy too thought it was good plan so he went to work to call everyone of their man's to be precise boss lackeys that works for him without any delay.
While Boss guy smiled wickedly and muttered "Just you wait Demon you would die by my hands for sure. And it would be my first time killing a genius, I don't know how it feels to kill a genius but I would soon, Hahahahahh," He started laughing out loud already seeing him been killing that demon.
While he called him a genius because their are not many who could just learn how to use magic, Since it is quiet hard for someone to learn even first step itself, that is to feel mana inside one's own body that Many takes even 30 to 40 years and that is if they solely try to concentrate in it for atleast 6 to 7 hours a day to feel it.
But no one have that much time to spare just to learn magic they also requires to Earn MS to live there life, Since everything need MS like for food to eat, A place to live, to increase their own rank in order to increase their longevity, and many else for which they had to risk their own life sometimes to earn. So they would rather prefer to get some rest or to do some extra work to earn MS than to invest their time learning magic that they are not even sure if they could.
But for Ray it was easy, Since Athena helped him in feeling his own mana that made his job a whole lot simple in order to learn magic but still It wouldn't have taken him that much of a time to learn magic.
"And I should also take care of that merchant, He was the reason for all this in first place I can't just let him go unscathed from this. Killing him would just be a waste. I should demand A hefty amount of MS from him Monthly that could keep my pocket full and For a warning, I would dilever him that demons head once I killed him, As a sign that I can kill him whenever I wish" he muttered with a grin than left the house.
*******
While inside of the dungeon Ray unknown to him someone was planning to kill him.
Was killing the monster on 16th floor.
I continued clearing the floor one by one facing no issue . While also taking some rest when feeling little tired now and then.
I was quiet bored of killing monster continuously because they where of no challenge to me but I didn't stopped continued my journey clearing the floor one by one not bothered with the boreness, Since my motive to come here was to reach rank 20.
If other got to know that a demon was feeling bore of killing monsters same rank as his others would have slapped him to death in anger because Some even dies in the dungeons if they encounter same rank monsters and have no one to back them up and thus always contain fear in themselves from coming to dungeon but seen this is the one of the best paid mission they takes risk. But to hear someone felt bore of killing a monster no one would be able to contain their anger hearing this.
