Chapter 167.Heading To The Lower Floors
'He seems too busy to notice our fight… But that might not last for long. I have to take the initiative, and get to the lower floors before this Dungeon Master uses full force…' Jake thought as he flew toward Pitts Town along with Fiona.
Ruxa, Perry, and Erin were riding the centaurs.
''I'll be going ahead with her.'' He sent his voice into their minds. ''You girls try to follow us on your own pace.''
''Understood!''
''Yes, master!''
They all knew that Jake would only be slowed if he went with them. Although he wasn't in a hurry previously, now he wanted to reach the lower floors faster. The reason was most likely related to this crazed girl.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The homunculus increased her speed, and Jake followed. Flying behind her, he could see her naked bottom. Fiona wasn't wearing any panties, though Jake didn't let that distract him.
As they reached Pitts Town, Jake stopped above it and examined the place. It wasn't bad for a town made inside the dungeon. It appeared there were good masons among the adventurers.
Jake used Magipathy and briefly examined the ranks of the adventurers. Those of the higher ranks either had high mana or special physiques, thus it was easy to identify them.
After confirming that there was no one higher than 3rd Circle here, he flew past the town with Fiona. He believed Erin could protect herself and the others.
''Daddy, we can go to the 25th Floor from that door!'' She pointed at the ground after they had flown a considerable distance.
The thing great about having a flying skill was that one didn't need to deal with the grounded monsters. Unless they had some kind of precise long-range attack method, no monster could harm Jake or Fiona.
As the monsters on this floor were already cleared, they reached the entrance to Floor 25 without needing to confront even one.
'Sren can send monsters from the lower floors and destroy Pitts Town, but he hasn't done that… Is it actually beneficial to have a safe point for adventurers in one's dungeon?' Jake thought as he blasted the closed door open.
This had given him ideas about having settlements inside his own dungeon. Not just for the adventurers, but for his followers as well. Actually, why limit it to settlements? There could be cities, temples, colosseums, towers, etc.
'Alright, that's for when I return… First, let's see what this dungeon has…' Jake put those thoughts at the back of his mind and entered the 25th Floor which had a chilly atmosphere to it.
…
''Amazing, her mana core is still pulsating with so much mana! Can we get the dungeon to Tier 3 with it?" Sren asked the dungeon fairy.
Yvonne had been chained here before he even became the new Dungeon Master. According to Lith, this 5th Circle Crimson Dragon had been here for almost a hundred years already!
Her life force and mana was being continuously sucked even now. Yet still, she could instantly pulverize Sren if she were to be released.
"I don't think it's enough though… Master, you also know we need 5 entire cores of 2nd tier dungeons to upgrade ours."
The dark mage sighed hearing the blonde fairy. He went ahead and pulled Yvonne's hair.
The young dragon girl glared at him with her maroon eyes. Due to the restricting adamantine chains which blocked her flow of mana, and even sucked it - Yvonne was unable to use her great strength.
For her, being touched by this lowly human was too much. She wanted to burn everything. Burn this dungeon and the pests inside with her dragon breath!
"Pui!" Yvonne spat on the long-nosed man's face who was pulling her hair.
"You…!" Sren immediately used a special spell on the dragon girl to electrify her body.
He had especially derived this for the homunculus' pleasure. It was nothing but pure torture, a curse of sorts.
''Aaaaah!'' Being hit by thousands of volts was too much for her weakened body. Yvonne's body vibrated fiercely as she cried.
Even the dungeon fairy felt somewhat terrified by it. He remembered how that homunculus could take the full power of this attack and still moan in pleasure.
'Speaking of her, she should've subjugated that demon by now…' Lith used his innate connection with the dungeon and took a peek at her.
However, what he sensed was completely out of his expectations. She and that demon weren't fighting but working together?!
''Master!'' The dungeon fairy immediately alerted Sren about it. ''Something is wrong with Fiona!''
…
At the 31st Floor of Tartus Dungeon.
''Hah!''
''Icicle Rain.''
Jake and Fiona cleared out the monsters on a broad hallway with relative ease. The opponents were huge worm-like green beings whose main attack was an acidic shot from their mouths.
The colorless acid was like water, except it could corrode anything. The durability of Jake's unique grade weapon, Black Reaper, went down by 1 when he blocked the acid with it a few times.
That was evidence how dangerous the acid shots were. However, as long as he stayed out of range and bombarded the monsters with magical attacks, there was no need to worry.
And Jake exactly did that. Though Fiona was more daring, going to fight them with bare hands. It didn't take a genius to figure out that she wanted to actually get burned by that acid.
''Ah~'' And it appeared she was having quite fun.
However, the homunculus suddenly stopped and backed off from the monsters. She came beside Jake and nudged his shoulders.
''Daddy, he spoke to me just now.''
''The Dungeon Master?'' Jake smiled.
''Yes… He's asking me what I'm doing!'' She seemed worried.
Fiona sometimes forgot that she was capable of fighting the Dark Mage on her own. This was most likely wired to her brain to prevent her from rebelling.
''Tell him that you're luring the demon deeper. That he is too strong and you need daddy's help,'' Jake ordered her while keeping the same smile.
