Yunan was having troubles reaching the 1000 points before entering the 14th floor, even after using low grade armor and only manifesting the weapons from the Dragonification armor.And so after he finished mapping the 13th floor and defeating the boss, an ogre with an imp on its shoulder, Yunan got to the 14th floor and started with the mapping, the monsters in this floor were fighting by overwhelming numbers in addition to the good power each had individually.
The monsters were jackals, foxes and dire wolves. The foxes could spit out fireb.a.l.l.s, the jackals could howl wind blades and the dire wolves could freeze the ground around them, and there were so many of them, the floor looked like it had an infestation of monsters. Another annoying thing about this floor was that all the walls in the floor could birth new monsters, not only birthing rooms had that capability.
This particular floor required the first instance of multiple groups joining hands and the deployment of army strategies, of course not all the parties that came here would need to join an army to survive, some were like Yunan and had enough power and could make their way in this floor easily.
As soon as Yunan got down to the floor he was welcomed by a group of 9 monsters, he dispatched them quickly but the sound of battle had drawn in the next wave and the 9 became 36, this kind of pressure was something Yunan looking forward to, he used his spells and the strategy he developed against the hordes his taunt used to summon to clear the path he wanted to take.
Yunan never stayed still but kept moving endlessly forward, taking notes here and there to make the map of the floor, well until another group of meddling adventurers who thought about making him pay for saving his life after his party died, Yunan did not even care about their calling and telling him to fight his way to them.
After the party made of over 60 people caught up with him, they surrounded him and kept fighting off the monsters, and switching tired adventurers, to keep the party alive. The leader approached Yunan in a relaxed manner with a smile on his face, on the other hand the frown on Yunans face was hidden by the armor.
"That was close there, we almost did not reach you in time. We are a rescue party that gets paid for saving stragglers like you, who have lost their party, and for a fee we can take you back to the 10th floor safe and sound without a scratch on you". Hearing this Yunan sat on the floor and said to the leader in a tired voice "how long till the next full moon?, i have been fighting here for almost a month, I don"t need your saving, i walked in here alone and i only lost sense of time recently" he then raised his voice "500 gold for the one who tells me when the next full moon is"
The leader was now boiling with rage "we are here to negotiate on saving you, not the b.l.o.o.d.y full moon, if you don"t want to die pay up" however a young lykan female who was resting from the fight did not smell human blood on Yunan, she thought it was strange so she came close gesturing to her leader to slow down. She sniffed around Yunan for a bit before lifting her palm up and saying " the full moon is within 2 days, pay up" Yunan stood up in a hurry, and paid her with a pouch full of gold, he did not even count how much was inside, and just jumped out of the encircling, activated spitting fire and then ran towards the entrance to the upper floors.
"He did not need it" said the lykan as she threw the pouch full of gold to her leader "this is more than enough compensation for telling someone the date" soon after the party made their way back to the 10th floor, at least they got some corpses and cores as consolation from the trip. Yunan had been fighting inside for 3 weeks without much trouble, he had a designated challenge room to sleep in whenever he was tired, and didn"t have much acc.u.mulated stress to return to take a good rest.
However he planned on leaving at least one week before the next date with Fortuna to learn the flirting arts as instructed, But he was a bit late in that regard. So before he even cleaned himself up, he found the most luxurious, and reputable brothel in the city and walked inside, wearing rags that stank from sweat and faded from overuse. He walked to the reception desk and asked to meet the manager, and moments later he saw a plump, comely, well dressed woman arrive at the desk, she brought with her a wind of pheromones.
Before the manager could say anything, Yunan said to her " I need the ten best girls you have, the only criteria is they are experts at flirting, i want them in my cabin within an hour, i will pay 10 times the price if you can do that, i need them until the full moon.", The manager chuckled to herself at the eager young man but said in a serious voice, we have a dress code in this place, also we do not take customers outside the establishment, and 4 days is too long, the maximum you can spend with our girls is three days, why don"t you come back after taking a bath and changing, into… not rags"
"Alright then, sorry to disturb you, i will be back later" Yunan made his way back with relief in his heart, the lykan had compensated for the time it would take the party to take him back, so he still had a bit of leeway, hence he made his way to the guild to pick up the most luxurious item the craftsmanship department of the guild had made, he was fairly impressed by the amount of work and detail they made into the bedroom.
The final product was a miniature house, it was 100 square meters rectangle, with a 5 meter high ceiling, the ceiling had been decorated with crystal fireflies, they emitted a faint light that was not as strong as a candle but spread further, the crystals were part of a gla.s.s climbing vine that covered the ceiling, the room was separated into three sections, a fully furnished kitchen open to a living room with a library and a large 5 person sofa, a bedroom with a king sized bed and a wardrobe in the middle and a large bathroom with a big self heating pool and ma.s.sive supply of water that is hidden in a storage tank.
