Chapter 89 - 89. Down The Dungeons You Go To Your Doom. (2/2)
When he said that, I knew he would be somebody in the near future. I just need to keep an eye on him to ensure that his path doesn't wayward to the dark side. During the dungeoneering, he had picked up one glove, a bronze sword, a planked shield and a round buckler.
It was the same exact items that I had picked up myself before. Before long he opened the last doorway that leads to level 5 of the dungeons and there the passageway had only one torch that was lighted in the middle. The place was as gloomy as the one that I had last entered and this is where 5 mutated extra-large boss ass rats were stacked one after another.
”Hit and run. Don't stay in one place, Red Two. Don't be too cocky and hasty place your shots well.” I hollered after him as Red Two Adam went swiftly crouched on one side and stealthily crept.
”Affirmative, Red Leader. OH MY GOSH... These rats are really enormous. What do they eat to gain this size?” as Red Two Adam gazed at the large monstrosity ahead of him as he unleashed alternative bolts from both his crossbows.
Its a good thing he aimed for the large saucer-shaped red glowing eyes of the rat and it was blinded by the shots and would be soon taken down by him. I lost count of how many Red Two Adam shot at the rat as soon the rat fell to its sides. He managed to shoot twice then moved to another position and shoot another two bolts before he shifted his position once again.
Good thing he had worn the amulet and the three wings that were given to him and the rest of the children, if not he would have given up on the third level. Seeing him shot the 1st rat multiple times, I congratulated him and he moved in to the next and the next until he had vanquished the whole dungeons filled with these rats.
”Red Leader, I'm tired...” Red Two Adam said as he reached for the last door that leads to the kitchen upstairs. ”You have done well, Red Two... It is now for Red Three to enter this dungeon. You may discuss the tactics with them once you had gone upstairs.” I reassured him as he pushed the door open and there's another door that greeted him a few paces in front.
He opened it up and emerged into the kitchen and the moment the rest of his sisters saw the gash on his forehead, Jane and Kayla decided to forgo the ordeal. ”Hah... A battle scar is all I got from them and its not by a rat but a plank that came loose and hut me squarely over my head here.” Red Two Adam reassured them as he was immediately treated by Patricia with her handy medkit.
”You sure you are going to let the rest go through with this? Look, Adam needs at least a few stitches to seal this wound up. Now he doesn't look handsome at all and everyone would call him Harry Potter instead.”
True enough, the gash that Adam got was somewhat similar to the flash scar on Harry Potters forehead. Nevertheless, Red Three Ingles was raring to go despite seeing the blood-streaked face.
”I also want to have a gash like him. It looked pretty cool, right? The other adventurers sure would be asking for one too if they were to see me walking around with a bloody bandage Iver my forehead...” Ingles said while she raised her dust triumphantly. ”My God... What did I raise... Little monsters as what Trish had mentioned before?” I shook my head and buried my face in my hands as Adam was sent to the infirmary to get his forehead stitched up.
Just as I figured, when Adam was ushered to the infirmary, a group of adventurers were sighted and Adam called out to them and informed them to head to the House Of Keating as there was a quest for them to gain experience.
The group made up of 10 to 12 adventurers were ecstatic and heads down to the House of Keating where they were ushered in by Rebecca whom they had recognised when they were given their first quest back in Central.
Seeing the new blood that had entered the House of Keating, and Kayla suddenly felt like a senior since there was a small girl about the age of 9 and a half. She is a wizard and Kayla felt that if this little sister is brave enough, why not she and Jane be afraid of? The little girl exudes such a confidence that even Jane and Kayla was awed by it.
Not only them, I too was awestruck by her confidence at such a young age.
