Outside the dungeon, Naomi was pondering about when Bella and those students would come out. Naomi had noticed that her best friend was looking strangely at one of the students earlier, and that made her a little annoyed… Bella was hers! She should never look at a boy like that!
She suddenly remembered Victor's hot and domineering eyes when he looked at her; it was as if he saw everything! NO… that’s impossible! But what if…

Could it be that he dropped those papers on purpose? She felt nothing before, but now that she was thinking about it, she felt that it was a little unnatural.

Could it be that he was checking her?

She quickly bent down and tried to imitate grabbing the papers from the ground, just to see what he could have seen…. Damn it! He had seen it all! Wait, what is that?

She noticed something covered by dirt right under the dungeon gate… Forgetting what she was thinking about, or maybe trying to escape reality, she quickly knelt and carefully reached under the dungeon gate that was hovering only a couple of inches above the ground.

It was a piece of paper, and was stuck as if it was nailed there… She pulled harder, tearing it, and then stepping back and carefully inspected it. It was a talisman that she didn’t see anything like before.

What is this for?

She didn’t have to ask that as seconds later the Vortex at the dungeon gate began to grow bigger and turn from cyan to Dark Blue!

It took her a few minutes to realize what this was.

Sh*t, this was a C Ranked gate, not an F Ranked one! It must be this talisman’s fault! Someone must have placed it here and hidden it carefully so that everyone would think this was a low-ranking dungeon!
She had no idea what this talisman is and how it worked as it even managed to screw her appraisal skill. But who would do this?

That’s not the important thing, the kids were in danger…C ranked dungeons were not for noobs.
Just as she was about to stand up and then run to sound the alarm, a strange thing happened as the gate slowly turned
from Blue to purple, from Purple to red then to gold…..

“SH*T! AN S RANK!” She yelled as she fell on her butt while opening her eyes wide.

Margret cursed as she kicked the door for the 100th time… why wouldn't it budge? No swords or spears seemed to be working on it… She even tried to seduce it, but it turned out to be a gay door, standing firmly totally unaffected.

Earlier she heard the familiar sound of someone screaming.
“NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO….”
Margret wanted to yell for help, but the ominous shrills that came right after, made her change her mind… It sent shivers up her spine. Shivers that she hadn't felt anything like them yet in this life!

Those things were definitely chasing after Alex!

Victor was right, Alex is a jinx! Those things seemingly felt her. They knocked a couple of times on the door separating them from her, but it didn’t budge at all.
This fucking golden door was super sturdy and didn’t even have cracks… Of course, it wouldn’t have cracks. It was a fuckin’ vault door after all!

Yes, the poor girl was locked inside a vault without her toys! A super grand Palace vault!
It was earlier full of strange treasures and gold coins that made their way into Margret’s little ring.
Thankfully Victor was wise enough to give her one with extra storage space after she told him her secret! It was supposed to store their dirty cash.

Those things retreated moments later just as the message of the Dungeon’s rank increase appeared, making Margret affirm her decision to stay here… Like she had any choice… She liked to believe she had one.

Margret could only sigh and look at the piles of strange bricks left behind her… She left them earlier because they were super heavy. Storing a thing in the ring took time proportional to its mass, and it should be able to be moved freely. So storing those bricks in her ring would take more than a few days of hard work. That’s what she had discovered earlier when it took her five minutes to take one of them!
Could those be some kind of treasure? Dah, of course, they were…. She was in a hurry to go level up earlier, but now she had all the time in the world.

After some thinking, she decided to begin working. If no one came to her rescue she would have to spend this raid in here, moving bricks and eating sweet sh*t… Did they really think that adding sugar to their energy bar would improve its taste?

Alex ran… She knew that she should not have returned to this dungeon… She should have run away while Victor was in here. But somewhere in her heart, she didn’t really want to do that… she didn’t dare to…

Earlier, when she sneaked into the dungeon, she woke up and found herself in a dark room… so she did the natural thing to turn on her flashlight. That’s when she discovered that she was in a large gothic-style hall with heaps of black bones and skulls all around her…

Seemingly, feeling the light, some bones slowly assembled as Alex, who knew that she shouldn’t stay here, frantically began looking for an exit in a hurry. She kept shedding more and more light on scattered bones and causing them to start trembling.

She finally found an exit a minute later behind one large heap of broken bones. Without thinking she jumped over it, collapsing it to the ground as she ran to the exit… It was too late.

“%hu %shsa sa%aa a%aa”
A skeleton that had fully assembled behind her screamed something incomprehensible as red light flickered in its eye sockets, causing all dormant bones to start assembling in a hurry.

Alex knew that she had to run, but bad luck struck again as a few skeletons seemed to have already assembled next to the hall's exit. They jumped at her with their sharp black boney spears that materialized out of thin air.

Alex quickly took out her own spear and began fighting them. Strangely enough, no matter how much she hacked at them, they didn’t seem to be affected. Their bones seemed to be extra hard as her spear didn’t even leave a scratch.

Thankfully their rib cages were exposed, so Alex quickly thrust her spear forward into the biggest and meanest-looking skeleton's rib cage then rotated the tip to act as a hook, creating a skeleton Hammer that she began to swing around cleaning the entrance in seconds.

Finishing, she quickly swung her spear as she rotated it again, causing the stuck skeleton who was about to throw his spear at her, to be flung away, crashing a few of his colleagues who had just assembled.

Alex didn't have time to celebrate her victory as she ran… she ran and ran as the sounds of screeches and bone cracking followed her. That was until she reached another circular hall that was a close end… SH*T

She could only turn around and pray that those skeletons from earlier didn’t follow her… They were there!
Strange enough, they didn’t dare to enter the hall and just stood right outside the arching doorway glaring at her with their flickering evil eyes.

Alex nervously looked at them as she relaxed her fighting stance… they couldn’t enter here. She realized that when they began hissing at her from outside as if to tell her to leave there quickly.

“Could it be that something was scaring them here?” Alex wondered as she looked around using her flashlight to slowly inspect the hall.

It is a circular hall with a single rusty sword that was struck with a black stone in its center... It seemed to form some kind of array!

Other than that, The hall's walls were full of fading murals depicting a great black shadow demon being fought by armies of men who had pointy ears. There was another mural of a sword banishing that demon.

Alex looked around and checked that the sword in the mural was the same one in the center of the hall…. Those evil creatures must be scared of the sword!

Alex smiled as she moved to the sword that seemed to be extra shabby… She thought for a second then tried to pull it. It didn’t budge… Alex frowned as the skeletons outside began to scream louder…

“B*tch! Get away from that ominous thing!” they screamed, but she didn’t understand them.

“Just you wait!” she yelled as she used her entire strength to pull the sword out…

CRACK….

The sword broke in half!

“Oops…” Alex frowned as she inspected the flimsy hilt in her hand, before noticing that the sword's blade that remained stuck in the stone began to disintegrate slowly into a cloud of black smoke that began to slowly consolidate behind her…

She slowly turned around and watched the smoke slowly forming a miasma that thickened by the second turning into an oily substance that began to solidify into a slimy black matter where a group of ominous skulls began to emerge and then drown again as they howled and reformed….

Alex stepped back and used her spear to hack at it!
The spear melted as soon as it touched that thing. Damn! This was an A-ranked Spear! It was Victor’s first gift to her!

Swallowing her saliva as she stepped back, Alex decided that she preferred to fight the skeletons behind her than that thing, so she quickly took another spear from her ring and turned around.
She was preparing for a fight, but the skeletons were not. They had already begun to run away!

She didn’t need any thinking to run after them while looking back at that thing completed its solidification into a giant amalgamation of skulls and bones that looked like a muddy giant frog that had hollow eye sockets that flickered with red flames seconds later.

It opened its giant mouth and sprung a huge tongue made of slimy bones. Alex used her spear to hit the wall and push her moving body to the side as the tongue went past her and grabbed the group of poor skeletons then pulled them into that thing’s mouth where they melted.

“Sh*t…” Alex shouted as she hurried through the now empty tunnel.

Reaching the hall she was in before, she was confronted by a sea of skeletons that formed in her absence
They looked at her with surprise. Wasn’t she dead already?

She didn’t pause. She just used her spear as a jumping pole to fly into the air and continued her run using the stunned skeletons' skulls as stepping stones.
Thanks to their great numbers, they couldn’t move their limbs or try to grab her.

By the moment the skeletons realized what she was doing, and decided to form a plan and deal with her. It was too late, as they began feeling their bodies getting disintegrating as if something was sucking all of their energy. They looked to the back and realized that the thing they feared most had awakened.

Alex who was running like crazy soon lost her footing and fell as the skeleton below her feet lost its energy and began to disintegrate.

She quickly looked back to realize that the ‘frog’ was sucking the entire sea of skeletons like soup… It was getting bigger and more ominous too! It finished quickly sucking the hall clean of skeletons as Alex slowly stood up.
Now that the hall was clean, she realized that the hall had another smaller exit, just as that thing looked at her!

“NOOOOOOOOOOOO…” Alex screamed as she began to run, she even activated a bunch of speed talismans.

That thing followed… It didn’t walk but floated like a ghost. It was not fast, just moving slowly like a lion that knew that nothing would escape it!

Alex didn’t know how much she ran… all she knew was that she passed from one hall to another and finally reached the end of the tunnel she was in…. Damn it, a dead end!

She shivered as she heard the ominous shrills of her pursuer who was just behind the corner. She quickly turned around and prepared to fight as she took out her spear which coincidentally struck the side of the wall, activating a hidden mechanism.

Alex only had to hear the sound of the wall sliding open behind her to turn and run through it!

A girl that seemed familiar was fighting some golden skeletons behind that gate, but she didn’t care.

“Make way!” Alex yelled as she passed them… She was not going to die here today!
