Chapter 9 - I Put My Life on the Line

Reiko! A warning by the guild have been released! It's a code black! An immediate response team is needed asap!

Y'know that dungeon is used for evaluating red rank potential adventures. It may be the weakest of a red rank dungeon, but it's still a red rank dungeon! You get me?

It means an unknowned boss monster was promoted by the dungeon, and based on the type of monster that will spawn there as of now will give us a clue what high rank boss we will fight today... Just pls not an undead... But just in case I already contact the Sanctuary and Holy Knights! Y'know gut's feeling and all.

Pls lead your group and if it's possible... End the boss dungeon and prevent another dungeon break... 

*I wonder if I can make it out alive this time...*

Don't worry. That will be our job to prevent a disaster from befalling this town.

*Back at Reiko house, preparing the essential items after informing her guild mates about the code black.*

Reiko Nee San! 

*With a distressed look on Reiko little sister, Lily.*

Pls... Come back safe... Pls...

*Reiko hug her sister tightly.*

Nothing bad will happen to me okay. Pls believe in your big sister and take care of yourself while I'm gone for a week... Tiara will come look after you for the meantime. Y'know how much I can rely on my neighbor.

*Reiko patted and comforted her sister before she makes her way to the guild house. After arriving there the scouts have returned to report back the situation.*

We have confirmed the situation in the dungeon and help the adventures who reported the sudden event and extracted them safely... It's a very bad situation were in... Only Official B Rank adventures are allowed to join this operation. 

A Great Lich have been spotted in the dungeon boss room!

*A lot of the adventures was shocked and in wary, to defeat a Great Lich you must at least have 25 holy knights or a Hero rank adventure that excels in light attribute element to deal with it...*

Even an A rank like me would have a tough fight with a Lich due to my skills... An undead... Thank God that guild master already requested aid from the holy knights... But even then... The holy knights already been exhausted from keeping the Fort of Abellon from being invaded by powerful demons... They might only have 7 or 9 holy knights reserve to aid us in this battle...

This time around... We might get wiped out in worst case scenario... If only it was an ordinary lich... But a Great Lich always takes 5 lives of others when it's near death... The worse thing is, your comrade will immediately turn into powerful ghouls once infected or killed by the Great Lich and it's lackeys.

*This is no joke... If only a hero would emerge... Pls... Let this town survive... My little sister...*

We have no choice... COMRADES THE LIVES OF OUR LOVE ONES IS ON A THIN LINE! BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE SHOULD SUCCUMB INTO FEAR BECAUSE OF THIS UNFORTUNATE EVENT! WE ARE NOT JUST ADVENTURERS! WE ARE WARRIORS! IF YOU REALLY WANT TO SEE A FLOURISHING FUTURE OF OUR LOVE ONES AND OURSELVES! WE SHALL DO OUR BEST AND STOP THE GREAT LICH AT ONES!

*The crowd who once inflicted with fear and anxiety have now cheered by the lights of inspiring words of Reiko.*

PREPARE AT ONCE! GATHER UP ALL THE HOLY WATER AND SCROLLS ON OUR DISPOSAL AND PREPARE A SEALING PORT NEAR THE DUNGEON ENTRANCE!

*Reiko team have entered the dungeon and already met foes, the ghouls was sliced up like butter into 6 pieces by Reiko fencing fighting style, she used a curved blade that can swiftly sliced her foes. If only it was a beast monster type, she would easily clear out the boss even if it's a dragon type. But undead are much trickier to deal with, since there body can regenerate even after being sliced up. They must be poured by holy water or attack by light affinity magic to be erased from existence. Unless someone is a magic swordman's, because the attack of a magic swordman's aura can be equivalent of a pure attack or basically attacking a soul. Even a dark magic can work well on undead, the only problem is, dark magicians are rare. Because they only been acknowledge by kind people who conceived a child from a demon or a person who have a dark past and didn't succumb to malice. Are the only people who can be compatible to wield dark magic.*

Let's make our way then. Apparently there's 350 undead right now and the dungeon can only hold 100 monster... So we must quickly eliminate all the ghouls that makes it's way on the entrance of the dungeon!

PUSH ON!! AND DON'T FORGOT THE TACTICAL POSITIONING, FOR THOSE WHO BEEN INFECTED DONT HIDE IT! WE KNOW A WAY TO DISPEL IT! BUT BE CAREFUL TO NOT BE BITTEN! IMMEDIATELY CUT YOUR ARMS OR LEGS TO AVOID THE SPREADING OF MALICE IN YOUR BODY! NEVER LET THEM BIT YOU ON THE NECK EITHER!

-May the Goddesses of Light be with us-
