CHAPTER 76: ENEMIES

"When we were closer to the elf, I sized him up. I checked to see whether he had sufficient mana or even sufficient aura energy, but the kid had known. The only other thing that can be considered is the fact that the kid has a secret weapon.

Even if the kid has a secret weapon, there is no way the kid can take me down. We just have to put an end to his life before he uses his secret weapon.

What do you think Faye. Do you think my idea is a genius idea? We just have to put an end to the kid before the kid does anything funny." Zou asked.

"Hmm. What you are suggesting seems plausible. We just have to prevent the kid from using his secret weapon. What about the Battle Sage that was with him the other day. I am positive that the man was a 1 Star Sage.

How do we handle him?" Faye answered and replied with her own question.

"This is something that you and Amiyah can handle. I trust that the both of you are sufficiently equipped to handle the swordsman.

He can’t handle my best swordsman and my best mage at the same time. I trust that you two will take him out with ease." Zou said with a wide smile.

"How, do we find the elf and his follower now. We have been in this dungeon for over 24 hours. Yet we have not seen them or their corpse at all.

That must mean that they are still alive somewhere in the dungeon. We just need to find, loot and kill them." Matteo added.

"It does not matter if they are alive or not. What I know is that I must kill them with my own hands. The dungeon can’t be that big truly. If we set up camp here, we can just wait for them to come and meet up, since we are on the route to the boss monster." Faye said, as she sat on a tree that has been cut up.

"That is a brilliant idea. Everyone! Listen up. We are to setup camp in this location and wait for ou target to reach this environment.

Once any of you spots the target, then we will all at once prepare an assault for the target. There is no room for error for this assault that we want to embark on." Zou yelled, as he gave further instructions for the remainder of the group.

........

Outside the dungeon. 5 figures were discussing on a tree house that had been setup.

"This is crazy. It has been over 24 hours right now. There is no way you want to tell me that the kid is not yet dead.

I don’t think that he is alive at the moment. Boss that is a freaking Red Zone 1 Star Dungeon. There is no way that he would come out of the place alive."

"Jaws, I also agree to this your reasoning. It is very possible that the elf is dead. Remember that this dungeon is known for the dungeon of death.

There have been no low star party that has survived the dungeon ever since the dungeon spawned." Maws added, but Jaw did not seem to be convinced by the words of his squad members.

He had a feeling that the elf and his follower would still be alive. He even felt that the duo might return from the dungeon stronger than ever.

"We have to be patient. We don’t know what could have happened in the dungeon. we can’t finish this mission without confirming that the elf is dead.

So, we are going to continue to wait. We have enough rations, so we should be able to wait for an additional 2 days.

That way, we will have enough and sufficient reason to claim that the elf and his follower died by our hands." Jaw said, as he could not shake off the worry that was on his mind.

.....

Somewhere in the city. Two ruthless figures sat, with prostitutes littered around them. They were smoking a long pipe and at the same time taking some strong expensive brand of wine.

"We have not heard anything from the squad that we sent to capture the elf. What do you think the matter is?"

"Maybe the squad ran into a problem or possibly they ran into a guild that wants to claim the bounty on their heads."

"Yes, that is also possible, but is that no too farfetched. The squad are a squad of assassins; they are masters of stealth and assassinations. They are not so weak that they would be caught by guild members. They were trained well and I am sure that it is not the case for them."

One of the prostitutes that was on the lap of one of the ruthless figures accidentally spilled wine on the body of one of the ruthless individuals.

"Huh? You bitch!" the figure yelled, as he grabbed the neck of the prostitute and started to squeeze it slowly.

The innocent prostitute fought back and tried to escape the grip of the ruthless figure, but all her efforts to dispel the attacks were futile. It did not take long for all the functions of her body to fail.

When the figure confirmed that the prostitute was dead, he smirked. "Trash will always be trash. Isn’t that, right?" the figure turned and asked the other prostitute that was on his other lap.

The prostitute in question was filled with immense fear that her entire body was shaking. Her sister had died right in front of her, yet the killer was asking her if her sister was trash or not.

"Y- -y- Yes" The prostitute replied with tears in her eyes, but the man was not appeased by her response.

Instead, he grabbed the other prostitute by the neck, and snapped her neck has quick as possible.

The other prostitutes in the room shivered when they saw the figure kill another prostitute.

"Italo! Let me finish these prostitutes off, after we will go and meet Jaw’s squad. The have some explaining to do!"
