[Outside Azazel Dungeon – Woodland Forest]A group of around twenty adventurers got an early lead towards the dungeon. Right as soon as the reward money was mentioned, these individuals mobilized themselves. Wanting to get to the dungeon first and, of course, finish it first as well.With the sum that is mentioned, anyone will easily be led to do the same thing as them. In fact, they even spent on teleportation scrolls just so they could reach the middle of the forest right away. Getting them that much closer to the dungeon’s entrance.Now all that’s left is to actually enter it.“Come on guys hurry up!” The leader said to his allies.“Why are you in such a hurry? We’re already ways ahead of the rest.” Another one commented, being just as excited as the leader.“I heard the lord is gonna join as well. Once he enters it’ll take him a couple of hours to catch up to us. We can’t let that happen.” The leader said. “We need that gold.”“Then keep on running!” A third one jokingly said.Mor

Five days have passed since the adventurers entered the dungeon. Right after the first two suicides committed, things escalated rather quickly. With more cases of the same act and those of murder also being done. All because the minds of some adventurers have been slowly deteriorating these past few days. Reaching a point where there are those that can’t distinguish friend from foe anymore.Everything continued spiraling out of control from that point onwards. Things only got worse quicker and quicker. With acts of cannibalism and rape being added to the list of stuff that these adventurers have done. All because their mental state has reached its limit.All of this happened without Merlin having to lift a single finger. He’s just there on his throne room. Patiently waiting as the banshees continued their work of rotting the minds of their poor victims. And as mentioned, this went on for five whole days…until Asther finally broke through.It took him some time to understand what’s hap

Hey Junrio. If you’re reading this letter, that means that I fucked up. I fucked up hard. I know that there are a lot of things that can happen in a dungeon. I know I’m not invincible as well. One way or another, there is a chance that I’d die. Especially because of this eagerness of mine to always be in the front lines. That’s why I need you to hold me back every time.I know that’s not possible. You’re my secretary and I am the lord of this city. There will be times when I simply won’t allow you to get in my way. That is the kind of love hate relationship that we have. It’s frustrating for you, I know. Not to worry though. In my death, I leave the ruling of Genesis city to you, my dear secretary. You’ve been more of it than me anyways so I believe that role should be yours to begin with. I won’t take no for an answer as well. This is my last will and testament so you better respect it as my secretary.Please guide the city the way you see fit. And whatever it is that would eventua

A shadowy figure entered a dimly lit room. The only source of light is the moon’s glow and even this offers but haunting silhouettes of everything that’s within that closed space. A perfect setup for the two individuals who can’t allow themselves to be seen by the light of day.“How did it go?” The person looking out the window asked.“Terrific.” Is the sarcastic remark of the second one. “They’re all as crap as I remember them to be.”“You make it sound like you haven’t even been part of the same group.” “I was. But then I’m reborn. Now I’m a higher lifeform compared to them.”“Whatever helps you sleep at night.” The person facing the window simply said. “Now, for the actual answer to my question.”“The chemical worked like you said it would. They all got paralyzed in a matter of seconds.” “Wonderful.” The window man said dryly. “And the bait?”“Sleeping peacefully in the lion’s den.” The other one replied. “I used hypnosis to force the desire of entering the dungeon inside his hea

[Genesis City – A day after Elliot’s disappearance.]The news of Elliot’s disappearance reached the new lord of Genesis City quickly. All because the nervous Claire reported it herself. She’s good friends with Elliot after all – close enough that they share the same bed on some nights. Enjoying each other’s company.Hence Arthur, along with Morgause, Lazaro and Kelzio, have been summoned by Junrio. Something which they cannot decline if they wish to graduate from the prestigious academy of the city. The thing is, they need to remain at the good side of the current lord. And with what happened to his predecessor, this need becomes a lot more powerful. With all five of them accepting the summons. Appearing at the dinning hall of the lord where all of them partook the same meal.“I’m glad that all of you are present and accounted for.” Junrio began.Honey roasted chicken is served in the middle of the table. Multiple ones to be exact. With a whole piece being shared for two individuals e
