Dreambreaker

Chapter 13: Double Dungeon [2]

????????'?? ??????(???? ?????????? ?????????? ???? ?????????????? ????????):

"Thank you sooo much!!" joyed the woman adventurer, while leaping onto me, wrapping her arms around into a tight embrace.

Her massive bazooms were pushed into my chest and in that moment a jet of thrill coursed through my veins.

Yes, I indeed was a virgin.

I mean what do you expect? A paitent to have sex?

I did have a girlfriend in the past but... turned out, she was just using me for her own amusement until I wasn't.

I couldn't take my eyes off the stunning beauty in my embrace. Her stunning face, beads of sweat glistening her skin.

Her leggings were torn, revealing her skin. Her curves accentuated her sexiness. Her hourglass figure was a work of art, with every curve in just the right place.

Even a mere glance at her made my pulse race and my palms sweat.

There was no denying it--this woman was an enchantress.

But, I wasn't a simp.

Anyway.

It was clear she was around my age, maybe mid-twenties?

"I am Sylvie Greyart, what is your name kid?" she introduced herself, finally our bodies parting away, which I was thankful for but at the same time... no I am not a fucking simp.

"It's Noah, nice to met you mam", I greeted in a polite manner, not showing what I was feeling inside.

"And what were you doing in here Noah?" Riley asked casually, not seeking to know anything in particular.

'What bullshit should I feed them? I did prepare some before coming here.

"Um?...It's a hobby of mine to scavenge on low ranking dungeons."

'That definitely sounds like bs. Now he will ask why does a student like me needs to scavenge dungeons? And then I will mislead him into-'

"The kid was following you guys from behind", interjected the Union officer before any of the made up scenarios in my head played out.

The Union officer was a formidable man, with a muscular build and ebony complexion, exuding an air of pressure that appeared to be at a (B-).

He was presently administering a health potion to Tressa.

"We assume that he had been trailing your party, hoping to acquire some skills or loots, or to salvage any valuable items if given the opportunity," he explained.

Although generally disapproved, it's not rare for people to scavenge items and loot during dungeon clearings.

Riley inquired, "Were you?" with a hint of amusement. "I won't pry too much."

'I think they bought the bullshit. But a part of me disagrees. Oh well, alls well if ends well'

Tressa and Bright were sprawled on the ground like lifeless bodies.

Riley tossed something in my direction, I was unsure of what it was. "Here, catch!" he called out.

"It's the only skill we got after defeating the dungeon's 'original boss,' but it's a ranked G skill, so it doesn't benefit me. Accept it as a gesture of gratitude from myself and my crew."

As I processed the information, I couldn't help but aske 'original boss?'

"Original boss? What do you mean?" The ebony union officer asked.

Riley and Sylvie proceeded to recount their experience, explaining how the dungeon had transformed after they eliminated the boss.

Their explanation left the officers in a state of confusion. Their confusion was understandable since this type of a thing usually never happens.

Everyone was confused by the story

Evryone, except Noah. His face contorted into a very strange expression and his eyes became darker. It was a face that didn't belong to a kid.

'What kind of nonsense is he saying? I never wrote anything about a dungeon morphing.'

Realizing that my emotions were showing on my face, I quickly changed my expression before anyone could notice.

Riley explained how they entered the dungeon with hopes of uncovering treasures and valuable items. Despite it being an E ranked dungeon, they spent hours tirelessly scouring every inch for something of worth.

Disappointingly, their search yielded no result, but they refused to give up. Determined to make the most of their trip, they decided to press on and defeat the boss monster, clearing the dungeon once and for all.

The team celebrated their victory over the dead Gobling King.

Their combined efforts proved to be enough to easily overpower him, and they assumed their task was complete.

But then, as they received the reward box from the dungeon, everything changed.

The space around them morphed, and the door they had entered from, sealed shut.

Monsters started pouring non-stop,

and the fight prolonged for several hours.

Thankfully, the Central Union team arrived just in time to save them from their death.

Riley, still grateful for Noah's help, handed him his card, urging him to call if he ever found himself in need of assistance.

He knew that there was no way to fully repay what Noah had done, as saving his team's lives was priceless and could not be measured by any Rank skill, let alone a (G-) one.

...

I rubbed the bridge of my nose in confusion, struggling to understand their explanation.

Despite my confusion, a soft chuckle escaped my lips.

"I guess I unwittingly gained some potential allies from this whole ordeal?"

After completing the formalities, Noah was sent on his way with a union officer.

"How are you feeling?" Riley asked Tressa. "It's a bit better," Tressa replied.

"What do you think about that kid?" Officer Anthony, the Ebony officer, asked Riley. He stayed behind to report the anomaly to headquarters.

Riley's eyes flickered as he watched the way Noah went before replying, "He was lying."

????????'?? ??????:

As I made my way back to the hostel, I checked in with the security guards at the entrance, providing them with my registration.

The Academy campus was massive —as large as a village, in fact. So electric cabs were permitted to drive within its limits.

After taking a cab I arrived at front foyer of A3 hostel.

I strolled towards the building, admiring the surrounding and well-manicured lawns of the campus as I made my way through the winding paths.

The hostel itself was impressive, with a towering structure painted in deep shades of blue and white decoratively accented with gold.

It was clear that no expense had been spared in its construction, with intricate carvings etched into the stonework and luxurious greenery lining the walkways.

Finally, I arrived at my own room —number 1872.

I fished my key out of pocket, unlocking the door and stepping inside.

It was deep into the night, and the normally bustling hostel was quiet and still. I did one more set of exercise before I settled in for the evening.

The time read 9:45 PM. I really wanted to sleep but knowing what was coming, how could I?

It was January 11, 2012, and the dungeon trials were coming.

But, this wasn't my concern.

I knew that in just five months' time, the major plotline would kick off with the Genova incident.

Many students were set to fall victim to this incident and I'd rather not be a name on that list.

I had five months before the massacre, and I needed to acquire one more mystery for my arsenal.

But which one?

There existed 8 mysteries in the world:

[Mystery of Teleportation]

[Mystery of Illusion]

[Solaris Amulet]

[Mystery of Riftwalker]

[Mystery of Life]

[Gravity's Duality Gem]

[Chromatic Battle Crest]

And lastly... the most powerful mystery of all, A-
