Chapter 149: Dungeons (1/2)

-----

So it seems that I ate a weapon, and it gave me some Skills, as it was a magical weapon of sorts.

It seems that Magic Weapons comes from… Dungeons! I don't know where these dungeons are or what they are, but Draugann quickly joined with us alongside Benladann as they started to explain to us what this was.

”Dungeons are something that everyone knows about… You never came across any of them through your journey?” sighed Draugann.

”Not at all, not even Benladann did. I suppose the areas where we came from lacked them,” I said.

”Indeed, it seems to be the case…” said Benladann.

”Well, to resume, Dungeons are… Well, like underground structures where monsters appear, they are often like giant underground mazes. They are filled with interesting monsters you don't see outside that much, often they drop things when you kill them… ” said Draugann.

”Useful items?” asked Benladann.

”Erm, it varies, most of the time it is useless garbage… But high-ranked dungeons can drop better stuff. The magic blade the dragon just ate was one of the better prizes you can get. Whole sects are working around dungeons because they are amazing sources of items and so on,” said Draugann.

”Ooh… So cool! Maybe we could get into a dungeon? Maybe we could get some prizes! Do they drop food?” asked Benladann.

”Erm… I don't know if they would drop food, but it is said that sometimes they drop things such as Health or Mana Potions, Antidotes, or even the prized and rare Elixirs,” said Draugann.

It seems that there is yet another RPG element in this nonsystem world, dungeons that magically produce monsters and items out of thin air.

I am sure that there might be some rule behind their creation of items, but for now, that's how it seems to me…

”I wonder if the Gods maintain the dungeons… or if the dungeons are merely created spontaneously…” I said.

”I don't know, but there are some tales that the one that created Dungeons was some sort of Demon of the past, who fought the first Immortal Venerable in history… It was an elf… I think the name was… Oberon?” wondered Draugann.

Oi holds up for a bit, that's a lot of stuff I didn't even know about!

But let's not go for it yet, the topic at hand seems interesting enough for now.

”A Demon from the past?” wondered Benladann.

”Some old story… I don't know if it is even real or not,” said Draugann.

”Do you know anything else about dungeons? From where these bandits could get this weapon?” I asked.

”Most likely they got it from the dungeon near the town we live in, the Ice Moon Sect uses this dungeon as a resource gathering point, although they don't let normal folk get in because we can easily get killed by the monsters inside… It is said that the last floors even have Rank 3 monsters!” said Dregeann.
