"So, what's the plan?" Mizu looked down the bridge as he saw a bunch of bandits. Dozens or probably fifty of them in total.

"I suppose we can go and get them one by one, seems like their just regular old bandits" Amarico looked below them as well, she saw the same group of bandits but more of them came from the entrance.

They were holding adventurers, all of them had bags on their head. The captives were mostly female. They were walking towards the campfire as they were made to kneel down on both knees and just stay there.

A suspicious figure was behind some of the bandits as they were wearing a black hoodie with a black robe covering their entire body.

"Those sick bastards..."

"We don't need to act rash Amarico, we still need to come up with a plan" Ada then immediately looked at the suspicious figure as he pointed at them

"Judging by some of his artifacts on his hands, his attunement is Mindweaver"

"Wait, Mindweaver? The attunement that's hard to master?" Amarico looked at Ada as she nodded

"Not necessarily. Mindweaver in a sense is easy to master when you become with ones self" Ada then summoned a small ball of shadow.

"Like any other attunement, it's the same but with Mindweaver it needs to be more concentrated" The ball suddenly disappeared as she unsheathes her dagger and counts the bandits

"There's also another way Mindweaver can be obtained, and that is by you destroying your own mental state... And it seems that guy chose the latter" Ada then went towards Sero and Kate as she looked at them both

"I suppose you got her covered right?" Sero nodded as she hugged Kate like a child

"Do not fret, I shall protect her until you guys return" Ada then looked at a rope that leads all the way down and what seems to be behind the bandit camp

"Alright, I'll go down first. Amarico, Mizu, you guys follow" Ada then started to use her shadow travel to go down much faster.

"Thought she was gonna use the rope but oh well" Amarico then slowly went to the rope as she suddenly climbed down.

Mizu looked at Sero and Kate as he smiled

"Please do protect her"

Sero nodded as she went inside the gate once more along with Kate as the gate closed.

Mizu then saw the rope tug as he saw both of them already down there. Mizu then slowly descended from the rope slowly and started to arrive at the bottom.

    "Alright, seems like theres an opening there..." Ada pointed out a huge door that leads to the insides of the camp, most likely a place where the bandits resupply."There's probably some of them inside there so, weapon's up... We can't take any chances... If we alert all of them then the plan might be a bust" Ada then slowly looked at the other side of the door as she saw two bandits standing in front of a weapon cache.Ada signaled Amarico to kill the other bandit and meanwhile she signaled to Mizu that he should stay here for now to guard. Mizu simply nodded as he then went and unsheathes his sword. The two ladies slowly creeped up behind the bandits as they went to their necks as one sliced, the other cracked. No noise were made when they killed both of them.

She then puts the other 2 bodies inside the barrel as she then looked at the both of them"We're fighting an entire army, what's the plan?" Mizu then looked outside the window, he saw the bandits drinking beer but the hooded figure standing still, the hostages however are still kneeled down as they were shivering"Seem's like we have a bigger problem now, the Mindweaver guy probably went on full alert because the bandits became drunk.." Ada then immediately casted a s

Handle the bandits and the Mindweaver! I'll handle Ada!" Ada immediately blocked another punch from Amarico as a loud clang was heard. Mizu gripped his sword with two of his hands as he looked at the bandits and mindweaver"So you like targetting weak minded people huh.." Mizu gritted his teeth, slowly breathing, calming himsel

Her hands were agile and it's as if she had already done this a thousand times already. "There... That should fix it" Ada then pats any dirt off his shoulders as she grabbed the pauldrons and boots "Your old pauldrons got into bad shape when we fought with the Sharko in the cave along with the bandits so you might as well use this for now" Mizu then grabbed the new pauldrons and boots from Ada, making him smile "Thank you for the consideration Ms. Ada" Mizu slowly puts on the pauldrons and boots as Ada walked away from him.Amarico looked at Ada with some concern"So...

He also saw his companions still knocked out and is in the same situation as he was in.The dimly lit room slowly covered Mizu's sight, he tried to use at least one of his spells to light up the room but he couldn't, it felt like his mana and reservoir was empty.Suddenly the lights of the room lit up as Mizu squinted his eyes to adjust to the brightness. Mizu heard a door open, which in turn he looked at where it came from. It was at his left side, he turned his head to that side in which a male that was the same height as Amarico [5'7] came in, wearing a lab coat and glasses, they were pushing a cart with equipment, surgical equipment to be precise."Ah. It seems like you are awake" The male looked at Mizu as they had a blank face and souless eyes. If Mizu could just read someone's thoughts with just their face, he would've saved so many of those

Much like she was enjoying the time of her life because of this."Raven... I came to discuss to you to stop this nonsense on what you are doing right now, don't you see how many lives you've already taken?""Oh my, what do you mean by lives I've already taken? I don't see anyone resisting whatsoever"Just then, a celtor went inside a room with a tray of snacks along with cups and a teapot."They all wanted this, look, they also enjoy it as well" Raven then clapped her hands as the celtor then went towards them and placed the tray down. They were wearing a blindfold and their movement looked more controlled rather than free will."The hell do you mean enjoying?! THEY'RE SUFFERING BECAUSE OF YOU"Faye then immediately stood up and was about to punch Raven but then Amarico stopped her."Easy, Faye! We can't

She then grabbed the dead Gargoyle's body and threw it to the other Gargoyles."Where did she even get this much?! And I thought it was Celtors?!" Amarico then punched one's beak as it flail around, hitting it's comrades and the pillars around them."Either in the Aratel Sea or possibly made Artificially!" Ada then threw a shadow dagger on the monster's eyes as it screamed in pain. She then used Faye's body as a boost for her jump as she then striked it down."But enough talking for now we literally need to get to that elevator over there so we can at least progress down this dungeon!" Faye then one handed her hammer, she then used her other hand to use her shield"Follow my lead! Don't stop!" Faye then shouted, she then starts to rush through the Gargoyles, some going away to not get hit by her."You heard her, go!" Ada then followed behind, then

    Mizu slowly started walking across the bridge, taking his time as he didn't want to fall off the bridge and drop into the acid lake that was beneath it."This slingshot was actually useful, thanks for that Amarico!" Faye then puts the slingshot back inside her backpack, looking at the gate that they will soon enter."You guys ready for this?" Amarico then helped Mizu get over to them as they then turned to the gate."I should give a brief rundown to her Manor... There's 3 levels overall and the last one is where she resides" Faye then drew on the ground, luckily there was a small patch of dirt "The first floor had a ton of... Celtors, I assume?" Faye then started to draw each floor correspondingly. Each of them having a drawing or two."I can't even call them real Celtors... Or people... They followed the Duchess around like they were robots and always said 'We shall return Celtor back to it's former glory' gives robotic vibes don't you think?" Faye then went to the second floor"Nex

    Mizu then held his sword tightly as he looked at the creatures that was rising from the ground. Their head was covered by what seems to be corals and their face looked hideous. They were wearing armor like clothing but it was already torn off, hinting that they were adventurers once."Mizu! Becareful, they can use spells even though their mudskippers now!" Ada then started to cast a spell. A shadow tendril was formed beside her as it started to move to Mizu's location."Hang on Mizu! Let my tendril grab you and carry you here!" But then the tendril got burnt down by a fireball. The group looked at the direction where the fireball came from, they saw a Mudskipper that was wearing an armor that was mostly for mages."Mizu!" Amarico finally arrived at the other side of the bridge, she wanted to go back but she'll risk of breaking the bridge too."Ada do you have any more spells?!" Faye then started to go over the bridge but Amarico stopped her from going further"I'm trying to but I can

    "Now that you got the hang of it, why not test it on the real deal itself" Faye then pointed at another Golem, it was turned around so it wouldn't see the group."How did that thing get here almost immediately!?" Amarico was already terrified. Her arm hasn't healed yet."Ah quit whining already, let me and this guy over here take care of it" Faye started walking towards it"Let's go!" Faye immediately equipped her greathammer, with Mizu equipping his new sword that Faye gave him."Alright then!" Faye and Mizu immediately went in front of it.Faye then started to distract it, only playing defensively while Mizu immediately went to it's arms, slicing through it "Woah!" Mizu immediately backed off, the Golem stumbling backwards as it just recieved a fatal damage."Nice job! Now let this Mercenary finish it off, alright?" Faye immediately threw her weapon in front of the Golem, she then boosts herself towards it.She pulls her left arm behind her, grinning."STRONG LEFT!" Faye then lands

I suppose you really do need my help..." The woman then grabbed her bag, she then pulled something out of it"I went in her laboratory and it seems she's planning big... I almost got caught by her as well" She then gave papers to Ada."What... What is this, Faye..." Ada looked thoroughly at the papers that she was given."I think she's planning on a raid" Faye was then given another bowl by Mizu, she said thank you before continuing to devour itThe papers were filled with blueprints, ways on how to make golems and how to mobilize manifactured celtors."I also didn't see any of her assistants, I think that's how she got the manifactured celtors...

Mizu tried to slice it's legs with his sword but it merely made a clang instead of a woosh."Back up back up!" Ada shouted as the Golem was about to throw a punch towards them.They dodged it in a nick of time as Amarico then started to pull back her left arm, it slowly glowed white."Step aside!" Amarico immediately rushed towards the Golem as she then threw a strong punch towards the Golem, knocking it back making it hit a tree as well."I think I can do that trick a few more times, it looks like it's working well rather than me punching it normally" Amarico then spinned her arm, that probably moved a joint but who knows."Does it even have a weakness?" Mizu looked at his sword. It was almost bent and it had alot of scratches on it"It's weakness is basically weak towards any blunt weaponry... Like Amarico's Strong L
