Chapter 230: Island Dungeon
A few days after improving my Divine Vision, it"s time to test it. Which mean I need to go to a dungeon, to check if my Divine Vision is able to see through inside the dungeon which has never been entered before. And I found two of them.
One is the underwater dungeon near my new diving spot in Ca.s.sau. But I don"t dare to enters it right now. Maybe once my air element has reached intermediate, I will challenge that dungeon.
The other one is the dungeon I found in an island during the time I crossed the ocean to find the Werewolves" whereabouts. But since it"s in the Monsters World, the monsters inside that dungeon might be much stronger than the same monsters in human world. But I think it"s a good place for training, so I decided to go there.
And obviously, I asked the others if they are willing to enter the dungeon.
"Dungeon. Found. Monsters World. Come?" I asked.
"I understand what you want to say, but it"s annoying if you say it like that. Ask properly this time." Candy complained.
"Sorry. I found a dungeon when I crossed the ocean in the Monsters World. It was during the time when I"m going for the Werewolves" settlement. I crossed the ocean for days and I stopped on an island where I see an entrance to a dungeon. I can tell since my Divine Vision seems to be unable to see through that area. And so, I marked that island with a Blobby so I can go there again later. And that later is soon since I want to see if my Divine Vision can now see through that dungeon or not. There"s also what Victoria told me that monsters in that world are much stronger than the same monster in this world. That"s why I didn"t enter it before. And so, I-" Before I continue, Candy stopped me.
"Okay, I got it! You can talk one word at a time. Your explanation is too long that Angela already give up listening! She"s even helping Lina doing the dishes!"
I looked at the kitchen where Candy"s finger is pointing at. I can see that Angela while looking dumbfounded helped Lina doing the dishes. Even though she"s someone who rarely do ch.o.r.es, she took the initiative to wash the dishes just because my explanation is too long. Although I make it quite simple, it seems that explanation is still too much for Angela"s brain.
It seems fun so let"s continue.
"It seems that Angela has difficulty in processing too many information that I spoke even though I only said everything in the simplest way anyone can understand. But I will continue my explanation in this way since it seems like the kids are interested in hearing my story. I can"t believe Angela"s brain is worse than the children"s brain. I guess it"s because while the kids wanted to hear my story, Angela is using her brain to fully understand my story. So, if Angela listen to my story like how the kids doing it, she will understand what I say. Angela, you can return here before you destroy any plates."
How come she doesn"t get it? After all this time, did I still overestimate her brain capacity?
"Basically, I found a dungeon in Monsters World, and I"m asking if there"s anyone who want to come with me there?" I asked.
"It was so simple! If you had said it this way from the start, even I can understand it!" Angela seems angry. Well, that"s my goal after all. Teasing her is fun.
Candy just sighed at our interaction while the others just smiling at us since it"s just our usual banter.
And that"s how I returned back to that dungeon with Kayla, Angela, and Shirley. Lina wanted to get her new monster adapted to fighting in human world so Lina, Sophie, and Candy take a quest together from the guild. As for Jewel, it"s a rest day today so other than daily exercises, she stays at home and play with the kids. Ian will watch the house while everyone is away.
"So, this is the dungeon that you found. This island is quite big. How deep is the dungeon?" Kayla asked.
This will be my first time using my Divine Vision after it"s upgrade. Although I can"t see as deep as outside the dungeon, it"s still enough to see about 200 meters. Which is quite good. But I haven"t seen the end of the dungeon. I think it will reach the Volcano which stand in the middle of the island.
"I think it reach that volcano. There are some areas near that volcano that I can"t see. I can see much clearer now inside the dungeon, but I haven"t found any treasure chests. Maybe this dungeon doesn"t have any treasure, but there are a lot of monsters inside. This place might be good for training." I said.
And then I summoned Shelia before we entered the dungeon. I already told her that I will call her at this time, so I don"t need to use portal to summon her. Just the one where my monster will suddenly appear next to me.
"Is that the dungeon? I smell many kinds of monsters from the inside, while I don"t smell any monster from outside the dungeon." Shelia said.
I forgot to check on the whole island, but when I looked over with my Divine Vision again, Shelia"s right. There doesn"t seem to be any monster outside the dungeon. I can only see monsters inside the dungeon and in the sea. Even though the island is beautiful, has a lot of trees and fruits, there doesn"t seem to be any monster in this island outside the dungeon.
Is this island a safe area from monster? Maybe I can progress with my plan to build a base in Monsters World here. I thought of building one in the Werewolves" settlement, but I think this place is better. But that depend on the dungeon.
"Let"s go in first. The entrance area doesn"t seem to have powerful monsters. But that"s just from our world"s standard. We need to progress carefully."
After entering the dungeon, we encounter goblins. They are stronger than the goblins from our world, but we still easily defeat them. I just watched everyone fight. If I see powerful monster I think the others can"t defeat, I will partic.i.p.ate in the fight.
Our strategy is simple. Victoria and Shelia will act as the vanguard, Angela and Shirley is the damage dealer, and Kayla is our support. And I"m just watching everyone from behind. Nice view. Is Kayla wearing Sophie"s magic fishnet stocking under her pants? That suit her.
"What are you looking at, Roy?" Kayla asked when she notice me being very quiet.
"Everything. We will see another group of monsters soon. Still goblins, but the numbers are higher than before." I replied.
"Hmm… does it suit me?" Kayla asked.
"Perfectly!"
"So, you did see everything, huh?"
Kayla said as she approaches me while looking angry.
"Wait! I"m sorry, okay? You"re the one asking me if the stocking suits you so I looked at you because you asked!" I tried to apologize and make an excuse.
Wait, something is wrong with what I said…
"I didn"t say anything about the stocking though."
Ah, s.h.i.t… what should I say here?
"…you really know me well, Kayla. As expected of my first girlfriend!"
"…I"m just teasing you. It"s not like I don"t know that you always use your power this way. Just don"t use it too much, okay?"
"Yes, Ma"am!"
We continue to fight another group of goblins after advancing quite a bit. Then I see that the path ahead is split into two. To the right is more goblins, and to the left are orcs. When I asked which way we should go, everyone agree to go to the left. Seems like everyone is bored to fight goblins.
There is no danger at the moment, so we continue walking in relaxed manner. That"s when I see something unusual happen.
"What the h.e.l.l!?" I shouted as I suddenly looked back.
Hearing my shout, everyone stopped and prepared for battle, but there"s no fight coming.
"What is it, Roy? What do you see?" Shirley asked.
"The goblin group we first fought suddenly reappear again!"
"…what?" Everyone is confused.
"Don"t you know that in the dungeon, the monsters would resp.a.w.n again after some time? Usually it"s after one day, but they have reappeared just in less than thirty minutes? Something is weird in this dungeon. Wait here, there"s something I wanted to check."
I left them with only taking Reizpear with me. I returned to the place we first fought the goblins, then I defeated all the goblins quickly. After that, I returned to where everyone is waiting. I"m running with full speed, so I just left the others for less than five minutes.
And when I returned to the others, my guess is correct! The goblins I defeated has magically appear again! This is great!
"Roy, what is it this time? You"re smiling." Victoria asked.
"Well, it seems like once we get further into the dungeon, the monsters we previously defeated will reappear again. It"s weird to see monsters suddenly appear just like how Sonia would appear suddenly near us."
"Does that mean we can enter this dungeon as many times as we want and the monsters will still be there?" Kayla understand what I"m thinking.
"That"s right! I haven"t seen any treasure chests, but the monsters here is good for training. I don"t think it will go on forever like this, but at least we can use this dungeon to train as much as we want before the dungeon stopped making monsters reappear again in an instant like this. But if the monsters in this dungeon is around the same level as Orcs, I don"t think we can train here forever. Let"s see if there are other powerful monsters in this dungeon."
This dungeon is perfect for training since the monsters appears as soon as I reach further in the dungeon. Once Jewel manifests her magic, I"ll bring her here to train.
