"Fuck, they're scorch golems!!" Gen shouted alarming others to get on guard.
"That's not good." I glanced at Mino. She was shaking with a grin on her face, she's totally excited.
I stopped her from charging as I reminded her about the hidden identity.
(Do not forget)
She nods and as I turned back to Emilia—she's gone,
"Emilia?"
"Umm..., you're talking about that girl?" Lucia point towards Emilia who was casually eating sandwiches.
"Hey, that's my sandwiches!!" Lucas shouted at Emilia.
...
"How are they that casual?" Gen groaned.
"Umm... I think they're attacking." Lucia warned us.
Just as Lucia warned us, Mino charges with her sword forward. She skillful danced with her sword and successfully destroyed the scorch golems attacking us.
"Woah, what is that—Mino?" I asked impressed.
"Just a dance for you–Master."
I was caught off guard and flustered by that. I then I adjusted my mask once again.
(I told you not to attack.) I scolded Mino.
(Don't worry, Master. My full power is sealed.) She replies back with a smile.
Sealed? What did she means by that? I thought wondering.
I smelled mana beasts once again. And I was getting annoyed. But I reminded myself that this is the dungeon.
"Such a piece of crap, I will–" Before I could continue–
Lucas intercepted me.
"Fuck that shit, I'm going to clean this dungeon myself!"
What is this little piece of –
All of us joined in to fight against the mana beasts, it was easy awkwardly.
"It's so easy... Even for a D rank like me." Lucia said his eyes filled with confusion.
Suddenly, Gen spoke up. "Anyway Mata, why are you wearing that Mask?" He asked.
"Oh, just for personal reasons." I shrugged his question off with an blunt answer.
"So be it then." He said. "But one thing is that... You sure have impressive smelling abilities."
Suddenly, Eru signaled us to come.
"Guys, Guys. Look!"
We all went to her to see what was about. When we are there we were shocked to see what is it.
It was a huge plain of grass and trees. It's a place that most adventurers call.
"Woah, is this a place that was called the Paradise in Dungeon??" Lucia was happy and so do the other ones.
Mino doesn't look that surprised and I already knew the reason why.
"Let's go in." I signaled, the group moving forward.
With a swish, we all went down to the paradise of the dungeon.
It was peaceful, a great place to camp.
"Let's camp here." Gen said. We all nodded.
After a while, we're all done making tents and stuff.
Me and Lucia went to a pond to catch some fish for dinner.
"Let's catch a big fish!" Lucia said.
"Let's go." I replied to him.
We walked to the pond near. The pond was not the large but it show the sign of fishes.
I don't know but wonder. Do these dungeons usually came with things like this? I asked myself.
But anyway, it doesn't matter. As long as I protect my group and reach to the 100th floor or maybe between 90-100th. Who knows?
"Woah, I caught a big fish!!" Lucia just caught himself a big fish. That is enough to feed our entire team?
We to be sure, I caught another fish the same size and went back to the camp.
There, our group was waiting. As soon as we got our fish, they does the cooking. Lucas came back from resting, Eru and Mino helped Emilia cook. Kai and Marcus help Gen prepare the tables.
We all seemed like a normal party that protects each others.
"Let's dig in!!" Lucas started eating his meal as soon as Emilia placed them.
We all dig in. Everyone was impressed at the delicious fish dishes made by Emilia–who was a maid.
Emilia was cold to everyone except me. But that's not a problem. Just a little bother.
Slurp. I ate the meal without taking the mask off. Lucia beside me was stunned.
"How did you eat without moving your mask?"
"Is this some kind of skill?" Gen asked teasingly.
"I think so." I replied.
To be frank, I was running away from police for more than 10 years and I always wear mask. That's not that's surprising... I just sighed.
.

. . .
The night came and everyone went to sleep. But I was at the outside of the camp, guarding.
"Master." Mino approached me and wrapped her arm around mine. "What's bothering you, Master?" She asked.
"Nothing." I just shrugged it of.
"Whatever you says Master." She said. "Also, I've always wanted to do this."
"Huh?" What was that about?
She placed her hand on her chest and bubble with a key inside showed up.
"Put your and inside the bubble and grab the key." She instructed me.
I just did what she says.
She got flustered fell on her knees, her face red.
"Are you okay?" I asked, worried.
She slowly stood up and took off her clothes.
"What are you doing?!!" I shouted, covering my eyes.
"Don't worry, I will only just show you my back." Mino insisted.
I slowly opened my eyes and saw a magic circle on her back. Me, being curious– touched her back.
She got suprised and flustered that even she got goosebumps.
"Hey, the magic spell is just stamped, don't just touch it. It's sensitive!!" She scolded me.
"O-okay Mino."
"This magic circle is the proof of our Master and Servant bond, Master." She explained.
"You will be able to use my powers. But unfortunately, my powers are half sealed."
That word made me raise eyebrow. "What did that means?" I asked.
"You will know later." She said. That only being added fuel to my burning fire of curiosity. But I decided to stay calm.
"Well, so be it. I will go sleep." As such, I went back to my tent and and laid flat and soon falling asleep.
.

. . .
The morning arrived, the entire cave is surrounded by light indicating that light is everywhere.
I walked off the tent, I found the group gathering at the some way.
I arrived there, they were looking at something.
I glanced over there and realised.
"What is this..." I stand before a hundreds of hole in this part leading to nowhere but abyss.
It felt like, a true adventure...
