“Ah! Return!” I cried out just as a sword pierced where I had been.
The knights were too fast, and I was just too startled. Thankfully, Return was included in those that worked in the dungeon. A mont later, I appeared back in Chalm. I let out a breath of relief.
So, Raissa had appeared in a room full of knights. The knights must have mistaken her for so explorer and decided to take advantage of her. She was pushed down and… I didn’t know. I didn’t know how far they had gotten, but I naturally disrupted the flow. I was also exposed now to the knights. They knew I was in the dungeon now. I also didn’t know what floor they were on.
It was probably the 1st floor. That was because they had just entered only a few hours before us, and didn’t have the advantage of taking the shortcut. It was impossible to make it down to the tenth floor that quickly. Even a high-level person that has a map and can one-shot every monster would take at least a half a day to cover that much distance in a dungeon this size. It couldn’t be underestimated how large each floor of a dungeon was. They also weren’t linear, but a labyrinth of corridors that could lead you in circles if you didn’t have the map ability.
There was a reason it took Lydia and myself days per level when we were in our first dungeon, and that wasn’t even large compared to these guys.
I waited as long as I was comfortable waiting, and then returned using portal to the 5th floor of the dungeon.
“Master!” Lydia tossed her arms around .
“I-I’m back,” I said, still feeling slightly awkward.
Raissa stood up. She was in fresh clothing loaned to her by one of the girls. She imdiately gave a bow, even though her body was shaking.
“I’m sorry!” She said, her eyes welling with tears. “They jumped when I got out. I didn’t tell them about you, but I couldn’t get a warning either! I even tried to get them to heavily injure , but instead they… they…”
Had she beco injured, as a party mber, we might have received a warning. However, these n weren’t interested in hurting her, but doing other things.
“Did they…” I didn’t want to ask, but the words ended up coming out anyway.
She looked away. “Only his fingers… he was considerate. Wanted ready, he said. Not every man waits.”
“What does that an?” My expression darkened.
Noticing the look on my face, she imdiately started trying to sooth with her arms waving. “I-it’s fine, my lord. This kind of thing happens a lot in dungeons. Ever since I’ve been a slave, there have been a few who have…”
BAM!
A loud sound caused her to jump. It took a few monts to realize that the sound had been made by . My hand had slamd into the wall. I didn’t even realize I had done it. When I pulled my hand away, there were a few cracks in the stone. A mont later blood started flowing from my hand. Strangely enough, I didn’t feel any pain, even though my hand was shaking.
Raissa was staring at my hand with her mouth open, not knowing what to say.
“Master…” Lydia grabbed my arm, hugging it between her soft breasts.
Celeste took my hand, running a potion over it. It felt cold.
Miki grabbed my shirt and looked up at with a smile, even though she was crying. Why were the girls comforting ? Raissa was the one that was raped. Even she looked like she wanted comfort.
“Master, let’s go back to the inn for tonight.”
“O-okay…”
