Chapter 26: First Dungeon

After that, one after another, Luis started showing all the spells he had learned.

"Dad, this is Pocket Space." A small purple vortex appeared near Luis as he continued, "Currently, its storage capacity is 2 cubic meters."

"That's convenient," Ronald murmured. He had seen similar storage spells and skills, so he wasn't that surprised.

"Next is a spell of Lightning Magic." Luis activated his mana, and the sparks formed near him, which soon covered his entire body.

The next moment, Luis made a gesture of throwing something, and a Lightning Javelin formed and shot at an immense speed.

Under the surprised eyes of Ronald, the Javelin struck the practice dummy with great power.

The dummy wasn't destroyed because many high-grade spells are practiced here. So, although Luis' spell was extraordinary for his rank. Compared to the power shown by high rankers, it was nothing.

But Ronald was still excited because the power behind that spell was several ranks stronger, compared to Luis' current rank.

Seeing Ronald's expression, Luis smiled slightly. "It's called Thunder Javelin. The power behind the attack can be adjusted with the amount of mana I use."

This made Ronald even more excited. Luis then took out a mana potion and chugged it down.

"Anyway, this is it, Dad. I can't show you my Illusion spells, as it won't have any effect on you." Luis stated while sighing. Ronald is an Overlord (S) rank powerhouse. His mental resistance is so high that it can negate Luis' illusion spell passively.

Ronald nodded his head in understanding. But seeing Luis' downcast expression, he couldn't help but cheer him up. "In that case, work hard and learn some powerful Illusion magic that will even put me under your illusion." He said with a chuckle.

Luis smiled slightly and replied with a look of determination, "I will."

Seeing Luis' confident look, Ronald was in a trance, but he regained his composure soon after and said, "It seems the spells are genuine and very useful, too. Keep up the good work, Luis."

Encouraging him a little, Ronald went back to attend to his matters. As he was leaving the facility, Ronald couldn't help but think. 'Your grandson is very similar to you, Dad. He yearns for strength and his eyes are full of confidence. I wonder how far he will go.'

When Luis arrived at the training grounds. His eyes inadvertently glanced at Alicia. In the last few days, under the hellish training of his mother, their relationship has also gotten a little closer.

Alicia also became a lot more comfortable with Luis. "Good morning, Luis."

"Good Morning, Alicia." Luis greeted back. Seeing that Lumine was on a call, he asked, "What is Mom doing?"

"Preparing a car," Alicia replied.

"A car?" Luis raised an eyebrow as he asked, "Are we going somewhere?"

Before Alicia could answer, Lumine came over and said, "We are going to a Dungeon."

"A Dungeon?" Luis was surprised by this sudden revelation.

Lumine nodded and said, "Yeah, although both of you are growing fast, it's time that you face some monsters, too." With a serious expression, she continued.

"A low-rank monster will be less dangerous and as both of you are yet to reach F-rank. There is still some sense of crisis. If you become stronger and then face weak monsters, it won't have the desired effect."

She sighed and said, "Both of you are at the peak of G rank. So facing a G-rank dungeon is suitable for you guys."

Luis and Alicia nodded their heads, agreeing to Lumine's words. They felt it will be a good experience.

Inside the car, Luis asked, "Which dungeon are we going to, Mom?"

"It's a G-rank dungeon called the Cemetery. It's under our guild's administration. The only monsters in this dungeon are Skeleton Soldiers and Zombies. As there are no resources in this dungeon and the winning reward is useless. It is mainly used to train the new members of the guild." Lumine explained, remembering the information about the dungeon. She had handpicked this dungeon after going through the list of dungeons under their guild.

Lumine didn't notice, but Luis' expression was a little strange at the moment. 'Isn't that?' Thinking of something, he asked, "What is the final reward, Mom?"

Lumine couldn't understand why he suddenly asked this, but answered nonetheless. "It's a Red Skull."

Hearing this, Luis' expression became even more serious as he queried. "What's the use of that Red Skull?"

Shaking her head, Lumine replied, "It's useless. It doesn't contain any magical properties, and many people tried doing experiments with it. In the end, they concluded it was just a decoration."

Luis' eyes brightened at that moment. 'Isn't that the tutorial dungeon of [The Holy Dragon Knight 2]? It is also the start of the quests related to the Ghost King. In the tutorial of this sequel, the dungeon that the protagonist entered was also called the Cemetery. Just like Mom said, there were only Skeleton Soldiers and Zombies. But after he got the Red Skull, he opened the path to the hidden passage inside the Cemetery. From there, the quests related to the Ghost King started.'

Thinking of this dungeon, Luis couldn't help but get excited. 'This is a great opportunity.'

'I almost forgot about this dungeon because I was thinking of the first game's plot these days.' But then a thought came to his mind. 'In the second game, this dungeon wasn't under the Suarez family. Does that mean by the start of the second game, the Suarez family sold this dungeon?'

Luis couldn't think of a reason, so he decided not to. 'It doesn't matter, anyway. I'm going to take the rewards this time.'

Lumine looked at Luis, who was in deep thought, and assured, "Don't think about it too much. Although the clearing reward is useless, after you guys clear the dungeon, I will reward you guys myself." Luis looked at his mom, who misunderstood him.

'Useless? No, Mom. You are wrong.' He wanted to refute her. 'The Red Skull is very important,' but he had no way to explain. So he silently agreed with a nod. 'She will reward me, anyway. So let's leave the explanation for a while.'
