Chapter 213: A Familiar Spot on the Ninth Floor (1/2)

”Stop! I told you the tower is closed off!” Ed and the rest tried to enter but the guard got in their way. ”Like I said, we're waiting for a capable cultivator! You'll just die in there!”

”Why would care about what happens to us? Plus, we're more than capable.” The guard had previously caught Ed by the shoulder in order to stop him, but now he regretted it. Ed flung him away and walked into the tower along with Bella and the others.

”Just like last time, they were teleported from the entrance to the first floor. Emilia and Bella, who did not visit the tower before, were caught off guard. Still, they managed to sober up quickly. The change in scenery left them flabbergasted.

”We're in a different space or dimension. The tower is not what it seems from the outside, but there is a whole different world on the inside.” Ed explained as he could understand what they were thinking. ”Let's explore a little.”

The eleven of them moved around the first floor. Same as the time when Ed visited, there was no one around. They took their time sightseeing, as no monster dared to attack them by feeling the aura exuded by Ed's monsters. Still, so as not to waste time, they started looking for the floor boss. Ed didn't have the ability to teleport around when he first visited the tower, so he didn't mark the areas of the floor bosses.

Still, thanks to his strong memory, he managed to locate the area when he killed the big bunny last time. There, he noticed a humanoid figure with bunny ears and musketeer clothes.

”It's the bunnyketeer!!” Suika jumped up and down as she pointed at the monster. It was the monsters they encountered first on the twelfth floor.

”Nyu?” The bunnyketeer noticed their presences and turned around to look. Then, he noticed Raikou's presence. Rage and fear switched around as he rushed at them with a rapier in his hand.

What the bunnyketeer failed to notice, was that no one was paying him any attention.

”What's a bunnyketeer?” Emilia asked innocently.

”It's a bunny and a musketeer's fusion. Our very own, Ed's creation!” Merry quickly spilled the beans sending Ed into a downward spiral of embarrassment.

”Pu!” Emilia let out a laugh before she could stop herself.

”It's cute!” Bella liked both the creature and the name.

”Nyu! Nyunyu nyuuu!” The bunny, that couldn't talk, protested by using some cute sounds. Raikou instantly finished it off by snapping its neck. It was an exact replay of the last. Before Bella could react to the death of the bunnyketeer, the teleportation light took them away.
