“Are you sure this is the dungeon she is in?” I asked, breaking through the door onto the 5th level.
“Yes, Master.” Celeste nodded. “This is the dungeon we marked as undead.”
“You say that, but where are the undead?”Ñøv€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.
“Ah... they’re outside the dungeon. The entire area is dark, creepy, and covered in zombies. Lydia said that this was similar to Mina’s dungeon the pair of you met in.”
Although she said that, I hadn’t seen the outside, and so far, the inside had very few undead elements. I supposed that ghost slimes made it undead in the barest terms, but it still didn’t look like what I would have expected.
“Ah, wait, here’s a skeleton!” I said excitedly as we walked onto the 5th-floor room.
Like the other floors above, this dungeon consisted of a single room that contained some puzzle in it. In each room leading up to this point other than the 1st, I was able to easily pass just by breaking down the door. It had only been a few minutes and we were already on the 5th floor. Whether the puzzles were getting progressively more dangerous or difficult, I didn’t know because I hadn’t defeated any of them legitimately.
“I do! Please kill me!” The door cried.
I turned to the other door. “Is this the safe way?”
“Ahh... y-yes... be cool, man. We have no problem...”
“We do have a problem!” The door in front of me yelled out. “Agh... darn my truthful ways!”
I raised my sword. “No one likes liars.”
“I... I will never surrender...” The door started crying. “Oh... crap!”
A few moments later, there was no longer a door, and the two of us moved on to the next floor.
