The next morning Yunan woke up to the trumpeting calls of Dustan, even the servants were scrambling here and there to get breakfast ready for their masters, meanwhile Yunan decided to just answer the call because he feared that both Kitty and Lili who were getting restless might go actually beat up the orc, it was then he heard: "if they pummel him enough, his face might change to look a bit less ugly i suppose" said Sarah from under the blankets, a few a.s.senting "hmm, hmm" responded to her, Yunan could only smile at his wives, seeking death was nothing strange for them."It is my first day exploring with them, give him a bit of slack, now let me get up and get cleaned up, you girls get some more beauty sleep, all of you have panda eyes from studying until it was late". As expected, Yunan left his bed under a stream of playful fists and some vocal abuse, he had just called his wives ugly or at least in need of beautification, a serious crime against all womanhood. And here i am baiting femin.a.z.is, aren"t i a good author?
Well, the man left the warmth of his wives and dropped into a big cleansing pool to clean up before telling the servants to take their time preparing breakfast, he still had to feel the chill of Death when Debauchery got serious, it has been so long yet the memory of them killing and destroying was vivid, the chill he felt when he was among them was still carved in his mind. He was not keen on experiencing that memory once more, so he took his time, it was too early and even if he had to suffer making Debauchery wait, he was still willing to delay that moment.
After getting out of the bath and heading to the dining room, Yunan was dumbfounded to see that Bai and Fae were as giddy as little children waiting to open their presents on Christmas morning, while Dustan and Balin where even more solemn than Lucian, Leader was smiling her enchanting smile like she was not even preparing for mortal combat, and Lucian was on edge, something that Yunan never thought was possible, even Anne was tightening her battle medic attire and even adding additional layers.
It turned out that some bets were won and some were lost and all in all, Dustan and Balin had a very bad day ahead of them, Lucian being on edge was a result of his mind working at full speed trying to compensate for the lost bets, it was too much for the man since the bet was as follows: the loser must not use a weapon until noon, and they must partic.i.p.ate in combat against a group of monsters no less than three times, shields and gauntlets were allowed, as well as the use of anything attached to the armor, anything else that could be used as a weapon was forbidden.
Yunan face-palmed twice, first when he was told about the bet and the second time was when he was told that neither Dustan nor Balin would be wearing armor because they were not going to fulfill the bet half heartedly, his mind started working on all the spells he could use on the two to make them as immune to getting killed as possible, not that his buffs would do much but the difference between life and death was always a precaution that has been deemed unnecessary.
If that was all there was to it, Yunan would have had much less to worry about, the giddiness that Bai and Fae had shown got him really nervous, those two were too happy to be closer to death and they still didn"t care much. Thus with his mind working on overdrive, Yunan was teleported to the 80th floor. The moment his feet touched the ground he knew this place was a complete world. Maybe it was his instinct at work or Tartarus herself providing that feeling, it was still an undeniable fact that he could feel this floor was different.
To put the feeling into words, each floor was a fragment of a world, the 10s were simple subterranean mazes, the 20 were plains, the 30s were oceans, the 40s were a desert, the 50s were a forests. Yunan could feel all these types of biomes existing in this floor, and then an idea scrambled his thoughts, this was a rest floor, just like all other rest floors, it did not indicate the environment in following floors, however, the feeling that from now on the rest of the floors would be the same as this one dominated the thought process. Still there was another feeling that Yunan discarded to the back of his mind seemingly too unbelievable to be explored at the moment.
"You can already feel it?" Bai was impressed, Lucian was still fidgeting and counting with his fingers, Fae was looking for something while Balin and Dustan had shields in each hand. "I never thought you would realise it this fast, usually people would never know unless told or read the maps" said Leader patting Yunan on the shoulder "it is exactly as you can feel, this is a complete planet, it is part of a solar system and is part of a galaxy, but this dimension is not as big as our real world, each floor from now on is a complete planet, each in a different solar system, all floors are strewn in across the same galaxy, getting closer to the centre of the galaxy with each floor, many think that the centre of this galaxy is where the heart of Tartarus is".
