Chapter 16
"I will cast it to all of you…wait a bit." Said Luna then she casted three spells on us, making our bodies are a bit light.
"Here we go hup!"
I jumped into the lake and then swims down to the lake's floor. We are swimming to the northwest area of the lake. We found a cave, surrounded by rocks. I pointed my finger to the cave and gave Luna a code to "a.n.a.lyze" the cave. Luna nodded and she casted the spell. After that, she gave a code that cave is the [Istheris Sunaria]'s Basecamp. We are swimming to the cave and we reached a dry place on the cave.
"Puah! Finally, we reached a dry place with air. I don't like swimming or diving."
"Activate [Desrteis] (Area Dry)." Luna casts a spell to dry our bodies and armors.
"So, this is [Istheris Sunaria]'s Hideout Zack-dono? It's quite dark." asked Kenzia.
"Yep, dark and damp, right? Unlike their name (Warm Light of The Sun)."
"You must be joking Zack-dono. I think this place is good as a Boss Room." said Suzuka.
"Let's go."
I walked first from the entrance. On the way, I asked Julio to walk in front of me, as for an antic.i.p.ation if something happens. On this cave there are many tunnels and thanks to Luna's magic, we can avoid the traps and walk to correct path.
"Well…I think…Viorellidono has went too far? Her bas.e.m.e.nt structure is quite confusing…" said Zack.
"If we ignore her, I'm sure that tomboy girl will make a [Demon G.o.d Cla.s.s Dungeon] without being told. Who the h.e.l.l put a guillotine on the cave's entrance?!" said Kenzia.
"Wait…I feel something isn't right in front. Let's stop and see it." said Zikiya. We stopped behind large rocks and we saw a woman is crying in agony, but her body is transparent.
"…is that a trap?" asked Tim.
"…who the h.e.l.l put a real ghost as a trap?" said Luna.
"…indeed, it is a real ghost, from my [Mistreil Righter] (Miracle Mind) that is a ghost from a drowned woman." said Zikiya.
"…then what we must do? Purificate her?" asked Suzuka.
"…it's meaningless. If we do that, that ghost will come back as vengeful ghost." Said Zikiya.
"…are you sure it's not a trap?" asked Daendles.
"…it isn't. I don't sense any trap around her or on the room." said Erick.
"…Kaichou?" Luna is turning her head left and right.
"KAICHOU!" She saw me has stood in front of the ghost.
"…Edercves mey, Doug Myheriium-simel Dracaen revev thou bask, ol'Naeg?" (Excuse
"Miista, miista…rebelum threider opelsairth! Un meridel azwerid dother etzerith!" (Mister, mister…my daughter has been abducted by a Demon! Please save my child!" The ghost stands up and she is crying onto my chest.
"Kaichou is amazing eh? Even ghost has fallen to his charm…"
"Stop it Lunchan, you are exaggerating…"
"Em…mil-eddier, castre ixarina dathe haelver icidena ter eliven-mi'esheer" (Umm…Milady, can you explain the whole incident to me? I'm all ears)
"Miista, yesfre sirrel…buverdo a mine preilcatre wez teinren bye a her batvar in dengrion cheinzlier!" (Mister, thank you very much…but there is a pearl necklace of mine that has been stolen by a woman inside this dungeon!)
"…bye a her? Whoevem her sicth it?" (…by a woman? Who is the woman?) I asked.
"Her fridneds cleal she "Velleronia", ez der an yeher akventainia?" (The woman's friends called her "Velleronia", is that an acquaintance of yours?)
(d.a.m.n…that woman makes nothing but trouble) I said on my mind.
*Pop up* u003cTask Acquiredu003e
[Find The Daughter and Necklace of Rilea Ghost. Total amount of EXP as a Reward is 10.000. Do you want to accept this task?]
u003cYesu003e/u003cNou003e a message screen popped out in front of my face.
"How is it?" I asked to the others.
"What did she ask, by the way?" asked Kenzia
"She asked about her daughter, who has been abducted by a Demon. Then, about her pearl necklace that has been stolen by Viorelle-dono."
"That woman now stole a necklace from a ghost. I wonder if that is the reason why Guild Master asked us to "keep an eye" to her. She always makes trouble everywhere she goes." said Kenzia.
"She asked us to defeat a demon? Was the Demon yesterday or another Demon?"
"Mil-eddier, castre ixarina dathe haelver daemonscia ter eliven-mi'e" (Milady, can you explain the full details of the Demon to me?)
"Das daemonscia ezdre restheroge bidenis, ahnre tiverngmus argleib scithee apolreitre nichtrosver fehoriel anrei!" (The Demon has huge ethereal body, skeleton face. It's carrying a large scythe, dressed in black and releasing a very sinister aura)
"What is she saying, Kaichou?"
"She said, "The Demon has huge ethereal body, skeleton face. It's carrying a large scythe, dressed in black and releasing a very sinister aura"."
"What…" Everyone is looking at the ghost with dumb look.
"Wait…" Erick is thinking something.
"…that's freaking Soul Eater you know?" He finished his words.
"Correct. How is it? My party has battled against it once, Zack-dono and Kenzidono. Well, we fought for two heverra nonstop…ahahaha…" I rubbed my neck.
"LET'S KILL IT KAICHOU!"
"Wait…wait, Lunchan?"
"LET'S—KILL—IT! I WANT THAT 200.000 EXP!!!" It seems Luna is in high spirit now, I think for the sake of level, skill level and ability level, she will go for it, even if her opponent is a Demon Lord or Dragon Lord. Alone.
"What's she exaggerating about?" asked Suzuka.
"Well, we got 200.000 EXP back then…But I—"
"LET'S HUNT IT DOWN!" After I told them about the EXP that we acquired back then, they pumped up. It seems I have made a terrible mistake…
"I think we must decline this task because our last encounter almost killed Julio…"
"Let me guess…he can't jump and he received the [One Hit Kill] blow, am I right?" said Zack.
"Yeah…ahahaha…" I glanced away when I saw Julio's sad expression.
"Bah! That's why I dislike Knight-cla.s.s, especially Paladin." He glanced at Julio.
"Hey, that's harsh Zack-dono. If there's no Knight, we will receive damage more frequently."
"I know, I know…sorry, I didn't mean the bad way."
"So, what must we do?" I feel bad for Julio.
"My Lord, I think we must help this lady and eliminate a threat that will cause a harm in the future."
"Are you sure Julio? You have a right to refuse, you know? Don't force yourself."
"I don't want my existence becomes a hindrance to someone, My Lord."
"That's a Paladin for you! Their mental fort.i.tude is really high! Bwahahahahaha!" Zack smacked Julio's back.
"Mil-eddier, weish well achieverrei thenrei qest." (Milady, we will accept your request) Then I pressed the u003cYesu003e b.u.t.ton.
"Miistaus eng Miiseir, esre eslit masille greille to reiumheat! (Misters and Misses, I said thousands of grat.i.tude from bottom of my heart!)
"Now, let's find her necklace first. I think we—"
"Miista, miista…tedh her het thousde weirel" (Mister, mister…that woman went to that way!)
"Huh?"
"What she said Kaichou?" asked Luna.
"She said Viorelle-dono went to that tunnel." said Zikiya.
"Let's go."
