Everyone in the dungeon, even the ones remaining on the third floor, began to hear a voice in their heads. Those who knew Jim’s voice understood that it was his voice.The message said: This dungeon is likely going to collapse soon. If you want to live, then leave within an hour from now.That was all the message said.Binnie recognized Jim’s voice, even the message was actually delivered with the help of Joe. “Isn’t he a softie?” she smiled while eating the ashes of her late husband. “I was thinking of leaving this world, but now that I’ve heard this message, I’m having second thoughts about dying.”Nightmare Sisters also heard his voice, but they both felt extremely furious.“Sis, how can we destroy him when he’s so strong?” Little Nightmare asked.“Let us first escape from this dungeon. And then we can think about how to fuck his life up,” Nightmare_lily said.A few others that were on the third floor also heard Jim’s voice and hastily acted.The same could be said about those on t
The door burst open before Jim even reached the door, and he stopped right after entering the hall, which was more like a living room in a villa with also an indoor pool.“Welcome to my home,” Old Blue started clapping slowly. “You did a marvelous job of beating your way through to this floor as one would expect from someone that picked a hero’s path. I would be lying if I said I expected something like this to happen even though Demon Dwarf told me a few days back that I’m going to be challenged by some youngster. I was thinking that it’d take a few years, but here you are… in just eleven days… you’ve made it almost to the exit. All you need to do right now is get one more victory. A win against this old man just like you bulldozed your way through the other two immortals.”Jim was not surprised by Old Blue’s appearance. He looked like an aged money and lion combo. His skin was all shriveled up, and his forehead had many holds. His head also lost hair in the middle, only had hair on
Ronny and Doug were exploring the fourth floor. Many rooms were still locked from the outside, and nobody was present in the open rooms as most people were just busy running and getting the hell out of the dungeon.And then they reached a room where they saw a woman locked up in silvery chains. They recognized her as it was Nexa.“Ronny the King!” Nexa immediately called for him. “Release me!”“H-Huh?” Ronny and Doug looked very shocked and puzzled. “What are you doing here? Didn’t you get sold?”“Y-Yeah, but they left me here,” Nexa pitifully said. “Please remove these chains. They are sealing off my demonic power. The keys are right there in that drawer. Hurry up.”“T-There’s no way we can release you,” Doug quickly said. “If we do, then you’re going to kill us! Even worse, you’re going to suck us dry!”“I won’t! I promise!” Nexa almost pleaded. “Please help me. I will help you guys get out of this dungeon. I made a foolish mistake when I was trying to escape and then got caught.”“
Joker and others were following those that were running out of the building. They did not care about being caught right now. They were only focused on getting out of there. Because the four of them could run fast, there was no problem keeping up with others.And then they reached the metal tunnel, where they saw people getting pulled toward the walls and glued to them.“What the hell is this?” Scarlet frowned.“Why are they…” Ace frowned.“Not everyone is getting stuck,” Heath said. “I think only those slaves who go out without permission might get stuck.”“Yeah, looks like it,” Joker opined. “Maybe, they are using the metals in the body to pull those humans. It looks powerful. Binnie did warn us that the nanobots in our bodies were destroyed, but not all the metal was flushed out yet. Going through this tunnel could be risky, but… we don’t know if there’s another way out or not. And we can’t afford to waste more time.” Joker said and started running forward. “I’ll go first. If I get
“No one will escape from this dungeon, not you, not your friends,” Old Blue said.Jim frowned. “What do you mean?”“The only way you can get out of this dungeon is through two ways,” Old Blue said. “Either you beat me, or you work under me.”“I’ll pick the first choice then,” Jim said without any hesitation.“I know that’s what you want to do, but why don’t you hear my story first?”“Your story?”“Yeah, I had a rather sad childhood,” Old Blue said. “You see, my dad was a member of the brotherhood’s Demona tribe, but he fell in love with a woman and escaped from the brotherhood. After a few years, he came to know that the woman he married and had two kids with was none other than a spy sent by his own dad. On top of that, that same woman used to be a concubine of his dad. And she took her children and brought them back to the brotherhood. It broke his heart, but he also returned to the brotherhood for her. You know what my granddad did to my dad?“He threw a big party, welcoming his so
Jim’s body flew against his will and straight toward Old Blue’s hand.(Telekinesis?) Jim immediately raised his hand and created a barrier of energy, which stopped Old Blue’s hand from grabbing Jim’s neck.“A wall made from Somatic Vivre?” Old Blue thrust his left hand right through the barrier and tried to grab Jim’s neck again.Jim jumped back.Old Blue managed to grab Jim’s shirt, and so the shirt was completely torn apart.This exposed Jim’s chiseled body.“Mm…” Old Blue looked impressed. “Out of all the men I’ve fought to this day, you have one of the best bodies. But is it just for looks, or is it fully functional? Let us put it to the test!”He stepped to the side, and his body vanished into thin air.“Where is he?” Jim closed his eyes and focus more on his sixth sense, and he was able to see a streak of light coming at him from his seven o’ clock.Jim immediately swiveled and whipped his leg. “Phoenix Whip!” His leg came straight at Old Blue’s face, but then his attack went ri
At the same time, somewhere else in the city.Tenzin’s car that she had stolen from Jim stopped outside Drake’s restaurant. “Is this the place that Jim owns?” She looked out through the window and saw the restaurant.“No, ma’am,” the driver replied. He was a teenager, someone she recently hired after surviving a killing game where he was the last man standing among 100 fighters. “The report said that he used to own the place, and then he sold it away to someone else for some personal reasons.”“Personal reasons, huh… Then I will just buy it and gift it to Jim once he joins the brotherhood,” Tenzin stepped out of the car. It was dusk at the time, but she was still wearing sunglasses just because she wanted to.The teenager also stepped out. “Do you want me to come with you, ma’am?”“Nah, I’ll handle this myself,” Tenzin said and entered the restaurant. She didn’t even look around and went straight to the center table where a couple was enjoying their time. “I want this table, so go som
Gabe returned to Drake's restaurant, looking completely alright.Bertha saw him and raised her voice at him, “Gabe, why did you leave in the middle of eating? I was thinking about removing the plates from the table!”“Sorry. I had some business, so I went out and took care of it,” Gabe said.“You can’t just leave before you finish the meal,” Bertha harrumphed. “What is Mia teaching you? Clearly, you are still as carefree and spoiled as ever.”Gabe smiled to himself but said nothing. He sat down and resumed eating.Bertha eventually came to the table and said, “Did Mia tell you about what I told her?”“About the previous owner of this restaurant, right?”“Yeah, their family member has been harassing me,” Bertha said. “They are a decently rich family. I think they do finance business. So obviously, they are very good at sucking people’s blood and sweat. And now, they want to buy this restaurant for a cheap price. She quoted a 2 million dollar price. Can you believe that? This could easi
