14 Chapter 14 (1/2)
It was dark when we enter the cave and Diana cast some light magic to make the cave brighter. We started to delve further into the cave, Hugh feels weird as we did not encounter any monster until now. He told us to be careful as he had a bad feeling about it.
The cave was pretty big and the light magic could not brighten up all the place. Hugh recommends us to stick together and attack together if there any monster appears. We keep walking further to the place that has the Mythril ore.
When we arrive there, Hugh was shocked as there were no Mythril Ore. He says that this place used to have a lot of the ore but somehow it has gone.
”Maybe someone already mines all of them?”
Hugh disagrees with my statement as the miners afraid to go into this cave because of the monster. He also told me that usually there will be some wolf and bear here or some goblin but we still not saw any monster yet.
We keep searching for the ore until suddenly we hear a high tone and loud noise, screeching in the cave.
”HREEEEEEEE!!!!”
”HREEEEEEEE!!!!....HREEEEEEEE!!!!”
We start to look around but their nothings in the cave. The sound kept getting louder and Hugh starts to shout.
”Diana! Cast some fire protection now!” Hugh prepares his shield and asks me and Diana to stay behind him.
Diana quickly cast fire protection as we also quickly get behind Hugh. I ask Hugh why we were hiding behind him.
”Earthen Drake...”
Something then crawls out from the ground as I was shocked seeing an Earthen Drake and it starts to spit out a fire as Hugh uses his Shield Protection Skill on time to tank up all the damage and protect us.
The Earthen Drake was about ten feet tall with a body covered in scale and dirt. Its teeth were sharp and his claw is as big as our head and that fire would burn us instantly but luckily Hugh managed to use his skill.
Even though Hugh use Shield Protection, the damage he received was massive. I quickly told Diana to heal Hugh and I will attack the drake while Hugh tanking his attack.
”Solace of Light!” Diana uses this skill on me and Hugh.
I check the status effect of Diana's skill and check the Earthen Drake stats.
