Berserk Stick System

Chapter 150 - 150-Slime Curse

The next morning, we arrived in front of the Red Dungeon, which was on Red Cliff. This dungeon emits a red aura from it. This makes the dungeon look scary. The tunnel leading into the dungeon even made cracks all around.

"Let's go inside. Stay alert at all times, " I told them.

"Um,"

Natalia's face is sullen because I look like the current party leader. Of course, I just replied with a smile. She immediately looked away, not wanting to see my face.

...

"A lizard?"

As we walked through the dungeon, we met a red-headed lizard monster. When the monster noticed our presence, it hissed and shot a red liquid from its mouth. Natalia didn't stay still. She jumped onto the wall and immediately lunged at the lizard. With her punch, she made the lizard bounce and die, crashing into the wall.

Natalia looked at the gloves she got from the previous exam, it seemed she was quite satisfied with gloves' abilities, she then looked at me arrogantly as if to say "What can you do?" for some reason it pissed me off a little.

We continued down the dungeon and met many monsters during our exploration until we came to a fork in the road. We looked at each other, planning which way to go.

"Wait a minute, I'll try to use my drone,"

Natalia said, then she took out many drones from her storage ring. The drones flew down a fork in the road. Not long after, a look of astonishment appeared on Natalia's face.

"What's wrong?" I asked her.

"The drone I sent, they all lost contact with me," Natalia replied, still surprised.

Shaking her head, her face immediately became serious, as if she had an ominous premonition.

"Lost contact? I don't think we should split up now, because there could be a lot of traps down the road, " I told them.

"No, we have to split up. If we don't split up, this dungeon will be conquered too late. I will follow the path on the left, you can follow the path on the right," Natalia immediately ran leaving us here.

"Natalia, wait!!"

I shouted at her, but she didn't hear me at all. Sighing helplessly, I looked at Silvie and others with serious faces.

"I know it's going to be a big risk, but we can't just leave Natalia alone. We will be divided into two groups. Silvie and I will follow Natalia, while Yua, Lusi, and Elysia, you guys go down the path on the right,"

"We understand, Lute," Yua nodded.

"Then remember to protect each other. Let's go, Silvie,"

"Um," Silvie said, nodding.

Silvie and I ran after Natalia, who had gone very far. She really pissed me off.

.....

After running far enough, we met Natalia. She was fighting a tree monster. I immediately lunged at the monster and slashed it with the phoenix sword I got from the exam. The tree monster instantly burst into flames with purple-colored flames. It screamed in pain before turning to ashes.

"Natalia, why did you leave right away?? You know, it's very dangerous, " I said with an angry face.

"Ha-huh!? What does that have to do with you? I don't need your attention. The reason I joined this party is that I don't have any party members. Don't be arrogant just because I'm at the same party as you. You really piss me off. Go away, you pervert, " Natalia has an annoyed face, moving away from me.

'This girl...'

Blood veins popped up in my head, seeing her behavior. When I was about to open my mouth to reply, suddenly there was a rumbling sound and the wall beside Natalia spun around, taking her to another room. We were all shocked, I rushed over to try to save her, but there was another rumbling sound. This time, the floor beneath Silvie's feet opened.

*Rumble*

"Damn,"

"Kyaa,"

Without thinking, I jumped up and caught Silvie with my chains. After catching her, I finally breathed a sigh of relief. But that only lasted a few moments, because the floor I was on also shifted and made me fall down. I fired my chain at the floor to keep us both from falling down.

"Silvie, are you okay?" I pulled her into my arms.

"I-I'm fine,"

*Rumble*

There was another rumble, and this time the floor was closing. The chains I used to hold us both broke, and we both fell down. I hugged Silvie tightly. Silvie closed her eyes in my arms in fear.

We fell far enough until I saw black water down there. I have a bad feeling about this because I still clearly remember the black water in the story. In the game, I repeated this several times before finally getting past this one.

"Silvie, remember my cue. Make a lump of ice with every step we step. Remember to use your mana carefully, because we will be fighting a dangerous monster. "

Silvie was surprised to hear me, but she nodded her head. She looked at the black water seriously, as our feet almost touched the black water. Silvie instantly made the water freeze. I stepped on ice while carrying Silvie in the princess's arms.

"Lute put me down." Silvie's face turned red, seeing our position.

"No, it's not over yet."

"ROOOAAAARRRRR,"

A roar was heard and a huge wave appeared at the same time, I jumped to avoid the black water waves. Silvie looked surprised, but she still remembered my previous words, and she immediately made an ice step for me.

[Master, I will also help you]

Woli appeared and created an ice wall in front of us both, when the black water hit the ice wall, it is visibly corroded. A strange monster then appeared. It was a slime that was the size of a house with a ghastly smile.

I frowned at the monster. When I tried to see the status window of the monster, it was as I expected.

"Lute, what kind of monster is that? Is that slime? " Silvie had a face of disbelief.

"It's slime, it's just that it's different from other slimes. It has the ability to curse. "

"Curse??" Silvie was even more surprised when she heard me.
