BXBX NOVEL Chapter 201 201 Blood Demon
Immediately he felt Mana flowing towards his legs, he had Mana Manipulation so it was easy for him, he dragged his leg and it came out of the mud immediately, Ray almost lost his balance but his legs got stuck again.
This time he removed them slowly and he finally got the hang of it, he could now walk on the mud with Mana under his legs.
\'This boy has the potential and talent to reach great heights but he\'s slow to catch on to things\'
Both of them walked further in before coming across the dungeon, the dungeon was just a small cave but it led underground where the golems were.
Selena walked in and Ray followed her, his legs were feeling weird because of the flow of Mana, this was the first time he was using Mana in his legs.
As soon as Ray entered the cave, the system notification ringed in his head and he looked at the interface that came up.
*Ding!! Ding!!*
[High level dungeon]
[Boss: Giant stone golem]
[Quest(s) Received]
[Raiding: Obtain the dungeon crystal]
[Reward: 20 skill points]
[Boss: Defeat the giant stone golem]
[Reward: +10 to all stats]
[Golem: Defeat 100 golems]
[Reward: ???]
Ray glanced through the interface but instead of looking at the quest his eyes focused on the reward, this particular rewards has to be the highest he had ever received.
\'20 skill points and +10 to all stats, the quest is almost impossible so the system is trying to lure me with the reward\'
\'Huh! what is wrong with the last quest, the reward is blank, and isn\'t 100 golem a little too much\'
"What are you looking at, keep walking" Selena sneered at him.
Ray had seen the quest and rewards so he cleared the screen and quickly moved forward.
The cave was like a tunnel carved by something or someone, it was circular and fitting for both of them to walk side by side. The entrance of the cave received sunlight so it was bright but the more they venture in the darker the cave gets till they could only see the light outside from afar.
Ray had his night vision and for some reason Selena wasn\'t bothered by the darkness, both of them walked for a while before they saw a light ahead, it was coming from underneath.
"So the dungeon is underground" Ray whispered as they reached where the light was coming from.
A hole was created on the ground, and a room could be seen, the room was lit unlike the tunnel so they suspected that it was part of the dungeon.
"The floor is concrete so the mud wouldn\'t be able to heal them, that\'s good news right?" Ray whispered.
"Not necessarily...I can\'t sense at least thousands of them in this dungeon, the dungeon is really big" Selena whispered back.
\'No wonder it\'s a high level dungeon, I don\'t think retrieving the dungeon crystal would be possible\' Ray mumbled to himself.
"Are you ready, we might have unexpected visitors as soon as we land" Selena told him.
"I\'m already in my beast form...I don\'t think I can be more prepared" Ray smirked.
\'100 golem... let\'s get this quest over with\'
Selena was the first to jump in and Ray jumped after her. It was unexpectedly higher than they anticipated so before they landed a large shadow hand caught both of them and placed them on the ground.
Ray looked around the room and was surprised, from above they couldn\'t get a good look at the whole room. There were different paths that all lead somewhere.
Ray counted the paths and they were 15 in total, they haven\'t made a single sound since they came.in so no golem had attacked them.
"Mind you, they are probably different beasts here, don\'t think because it golems you are safe" Selena warned him.
"No problem" Ray spoke before opening his void and removing his blood spears.
Selena no looked at them closely and blinked her eyes, Ray noticed her and was surprised.
"C-Can I see your weapon?" Selena asked in a shaky voice.
"Sure...is something wrong?" Ray asked as he handed her one of his spear.
"When you were using it against the stone golems outside I didn\'t look at it, where did you find this?"
"In a dungeon, a secret room" Ray replied.
"Have you tried infusing Mana in the spear?" Selena asked him.
"No..."
Selena placed both of her hands on the spear and tried to infuse Mana in the spell but immediately the spear burnt her hands and she threw it away.
"Ouch!!" Selena screamed in pain and Ray looked at both of her palm, they were burnt marks on them.
"I can heal you" Ray told Selena and she stretched her hands.
Ray held both of Selena\'s hands and cast his [Strong healing] spell on her. Slowly the pain began to subside and her breathing became normal.
"What happened?" Ray asked.
"I tried to infuse Mana in the spell and I got burnt, there is something in the spear, you should throw them away" Selena said in a serious tone.
"But...I can\'t throw them away, this is the first time this is happening, and I\'m not going to infuse Mana so it doesn\'t happen again" Ray said almost immediately.
The blood spear had helped Ray in so many occasions, so he wasn\'t ready to just throw it away, the spear was able to damage even high level beasts.
"That spear isn\'t good, I said throw it away" Selena shouted.
"I can\'t throw them away" Ray said in a low voice.
"What!! how dare you disobey me" Selena shouted and stood on her feet.
"I\'m not disobeying you, I can\'t throw them away because even if I do, they still return to my hands" Ray said making Selena to calm down a little.
"Return to your hands... explain"
"I can make the spear appear in my hands no matter where they are, anywhere at anytime"
"Then do it," Selena said.
Ray turn around and the spear that Selena threw away was still on the ground, he stretched his right hand forward and immediately the spear appeared in his hand.
Selena was taken aback by the sudden appearance, she knew the spear contained magical properties as she saw it but she doesn\'t know what it is exactly.
"Try infusing Mana" Selena told Ray.
"What!! isn\'t that what damaged your hands, I can\'t risk it" Ray snorted.
"Maybe it burnt my hands because I\'m not the owner of the spear" Selena said I\'m a low voice.
\'The owner... there\'s a skill called [ownership] and that\'s the reason the spear can return to my hands, maybe I\'m really the owner\'
"I\'m going to try" Ray said and closed his eyes.
\'I have regeneration, so even if I get burnt my skin can regenerate, I have nothing to fear...why am I afraid, I\'ve witnessed pain before so why am I scared\' Ray mumbled.
"You are scared because I\'m here"
An eerie voice spoke bringing consciousness back to Ray\'s body, his eyes sprang opened and he looked around in shock.
"This isn\'t the golem\'s dungeon, where am I?" Ray asked as his vision settled at a dark figure that sat on a chair in front of him.
His surrounding were extremely dark making it impossible to make out the figure sitting on the chair, Ray could only see the chair and the black figure on it and nothing else.
"You are nowhere exactly" the figure spoke In a cold and eerie voice that send chills down to Ray\'s spine.
"Why am I here?"
"Because you finally called upon me, my plan finally worked, I\'m going to be free from this cage" the figure laughed hysterically.
"What do you mean by that...I don\'t understand, you are going to be free, what does that mean, who are you?" Ray shouted all his questions in anger.
"You don\'t know me? I\'m kinda disappointed given I\'ve been with you since the beginning of your journey" the figure laughed.
"You have been with me, who are you?"
"Do I need to answer that, you should know this place is going to be your cage for all eternity"
"W-What are you talking about?" Ray asked with a shaky voice.
"I\'m the blood demon and thank you for waking me from my sleep"
