Although the previous teams had cleared out the levels, each subsequent team systematically wiping out all opposition and creating a clear and safe path to move from level to level, I had a feeling that this final team could have blown through these obstacles even without the others leading the ways. They moved down from level to level at a speed that seed to overwhelm the other teams.
As they overtook the teams before them which had been proceeding far more cautiously as to not encounter any surprises, the magician who was now known as First made sure the chastise them.
“Pathetic! Don’t you love our lord at all?”
“Th-this is a dungeon! We don’t want to die!” One girl cried out.
“Shut up! Our lord is depending on us, and here you are wasting ti!”
These girls could only put their heads down and then follow behind their betters as they continued down. They finally t up on the puzzle level, just as the current group was defeating the final puzzle. Each subsequent group that had gathered had offered their brainpower, and eventually, enough clever people appeared that the puzzles were all done. A few had deathly consequences, and a few more had perished.
With First’s group, there were just over a hundred harem girls remaining. So far, the dungeon had managed to wipe out close to fifty. That ant that King Roth kept a harem of over 150 girls. I had thought I had been greedy with how many won I kept. Then again, I seed to recall the harems of earth from rulers tended to have hundreds and sotis thousands, so maybe I was the one being too picky.
“This is as far as you all made it?” the current First snarled. “I promised my lord we’d be done with this dungeon by lunchti. You are being held back by such a pathetic enemy? You make King Roth look bad!”
“I-it’s not that!” One of the leaders from another group protested. “It’s just that this dungeon isn’t like any other dungeon we’ve seen. Every level is completely different. We can’t possibly account for everything.”
“Shut up!” She slapped the girl. “All the matters was my lord’s happiness. You will follow from now on, and as long as you do what I say, then you may be able to keep the honor to service his feet!”
“Y-yes… apologies.” She said, rubbing her cheek tearfully.
First reorganized the remaining girls and then gestured for them to continue onward. They left the floor and headed on to the first of the ghost levels. As soon as the first ghost appeared, it was as I had thought. The animalkin girls imdiately went rigid, and in particular, the lionesses and other catkin seed to be afraid.
“You will attack!” First hollered, demanding they went forward.
There was so hesitancy, and Second who was sending in the back couldn’t hide the smug look on her face as First’s orders were ignored. However, when First looked in her direction, she made sure to wipe that look off her face.
First suddenly whipped out her hand, and a lightning bolt ca out and struck one of the animalkin won. She was one of the weaker girls, and she didn’t even have ti to raise her hands before she died.
“Whoever doesn’t obey, dies!” First scread.
