"L-let's take a little break."
Aeri suggested, and the others agreed, collapsing on the ground. As they were slowly succumbing to sleep from exhaustion, Kara rembered sothing that put her on alert.
"WAIT!"
"Huh? What is it!? What's happening!?"
Aeri snapped.
"Where is lady Hinotori!?"
"Huh? Is that why you were screaming? She's right over ther- HUH!?"
Aeri responded with an annoyed tone, pointing to a black case at the wall across them.
"Eh? That is not Lady Hinotori! It is a dark object!"
"B-but. I put the little bird there!"
"Oh, Aeri, you lost Lady Hinotori!?"
"I-I…"
Ulva's nose started to act. She kept on sniffing the air and walked towards the case, then touched it. When she looked in it, it was actually crystalline and by just a bit, she managed to see through it.
"I can sll big sis' blood coming from that thing."
She said, then fell over the case sleepily.
"EH!?"
Both of them scread
"Are you saying that thing is the bird!?"
She nodded to Aeri's question, while sleepily hugging Kawaii.
"Thank the Goddess of Silver Light. I thought we had lost Lady Hinotori."
Kara smiled at Ulva, then sat down, with her back against the wall. She closed her eyes and finally allowed sleep to overwhelm her. Aeri on the other hand started to think over what Kara said.
‘The Goddess of Silver Light? The Moon Goddess? So she’s a devout follower, huh? But she doesn’t seem as dangerous as that person. Ah, whatever~’
She closed her eyes, deciding to not bother her brain with sothing that was irrelevant at the mont. She could think about this later when she was out of the dungeons. And inquiring her here could be dangerous.

Day 34
"How do those gloves fit, Aeri?"
Kara asked.
"Hmm, they are ok, I guess. They fit just right."
"That's good to hear. We may need those on the next floor."
"You're right, but I wonder if they will be really helpful. Also, I can't keep this size up on a normal you know."
"Yes. Lady Hinotori might find so use for it?"
[Aeri has entered the 4th Floor of the Forbidden Dungeon]
[Kara has entered the 4th Floor of the Forbidden Dungeon]
[Ulva has entered the 4th Floor of the Forbidden Dungeon]
[Kawaii has entered the 4th Floor of the Forbidden Dungeon]
[Hyakkiyako has entered the 4th Floor of the Forbidden Dungeon]
"Oi oi oi, what's up with this floor? It's so… sticky and ew."
Aeri complained as she looked around. The entire floor was quite enclosed as compared to the others, but it had weird green goo splattered all around, making it a bit hard for Aeri to move. The others just sat on her shoulder so they had no real problem.
They reached a point where they saw a green orb as big as Aeri's fist on the ground.
"Eh? What is that thing?"
"Hmmm, looks like a ball. I feel like I have seen this sowhere before."
Kara said right before landing on the ground. She went to touch the orb and as expected it was stuck to the ground by the green goo.
"This looks so familiar. Why can't I put my finger on it?"
"Maybe because of how the place stinks."
Ulva looked at Kawaii. The sli had turned black once they woke up and had been jiggling a bit, but hadn't made any sounds. Ulva then noticed sothing in the sli. The tiny orb that had always been in it, just not easily visible.
"Hey, it looks like Kawaii's ball."
"Like Kawaii's ball?"
Aeri asked, curious as to what that ant.
“Yeah. Kawaii has this weird ball inside her. Like an orb?”
"Wait did you just say Kawaii's ball!? We need to get out of the goo! Now!"
The ogress scread, but it was too late. The goo started to move towards the orb quickly. Kara jumped out of the way to avoid getting caught, but Aeri had been standing on it, so it pulled her along, causing her to fall on her butt. Ulva easily jumped off the battle god's shoulder and landed sowhere safe with Kawaii in arms.
"Big sister Aeri!"
Ulva called out.
"Don't worry about !"
She yelled right before slapping her hands hard, producing a shockwave that sent ripples on the sli's body. Its hold on her beca lose and she used that ti to free herself, jumping back.
"I thought that thing would have died with that."
She said.
"This is Kaleb Zen's Dungeon. I don't think anything here is supposed to die easily."
Kara said, then spread out her hands. She said a chant as quickly as she could, then released bolts of lightning from her palms.
"[Lightning spears]!"
Kara roared as her blue lightning bolts, hit the green monstrosity, but it simply swallowed the attacks like they were no problem whatsoever.
Ulva was quick to act, using her new found physical abilities to charge at the monster. Her scythe was raised to the sky for a nacing cut. She sliced right through the sli, but her scythe got stuck in it halfway. She grunted as she kept on pulling it out, but the sli got her legs and began to swallow her.
Aeri grabbed her, easily pulling her out along with her scythe, then the girl collapsed on the ground, her clothes nearly burnt off.
"None of our attacks are doing anything to it."
She said as she stood up weakly.
"Ulva, could you use your ice magic to freeze it?"
"Sorry but my magic isn't really that strong yet. Big sis said it would take a while and more grinding?"
"Hmm, I see. Then I think we are actually dood."
"Not yet!"
A voice yelled.
"Eh? Who said that!?"
The black sli Ulva had been carrying around with her suddenly jiggled a bit. It was glowing with a bright light as it swirled around, moving crazily, then jumping at the green sli. Surprisingly, it extended till it was as big as the green sli. It turned into a battle of slis… Calling it a battle barely described what actually happened. The black sli completely devoured the green sli and the others could only watch in shock and horror at the puke-invoking sight.
"Soone call for a sli?"
The humanoid figure with a black gelatinous skin cover and well-shaped physique asked. She had a dark violet core sticking out of her chest, and her slimy hair strands fell over her body. Her golden eyes looked at everyone and she let out a fang-filled grin.
"K-kawaii?"
"In the sli?"
Ulva ran to her and grabbed her in a hug. Kawaii did the sa, although she was now more of a giant than before. She was only a bit shorter than Kara who could also be called big.
"I thought you said nothing here could be killed easily."
Aeri whispered.
"Well… can you really consider anything Hinotori collects to be the norm?!"
Kara's face flushed red with embarrassnt, even coming up with a stupid excuse.
"Awww, you missed ?"
Kawaii teased Ulva and lifted her up. The little dhampyr nodded excitedly.
"I wasn't gone for long, right?"
"You took a day!"
"Is that how long it took to reconstruct my figure?"
"Reconstruct your figure?"
"Oh yeah. I evolved.”
"We know."
"Oh cool. Anyway, I'm now a Dark Toxic Sli Princess!"
"A dark what?"
"Since when could slis evolve?"
Kara asked as she drew in closer and wiped off so goo from her clothes.
"Since the Mawstewr nad ! Hey, where is Mawstewr?"
Aeri pointed to a certain black crystalline case and scratched her cheek.
"That's Mawstewr?"
"We believe so." (Kara)
"So she is evolving as well?"
"Probably."
"Ouu, I can't wait to see what she becos"
"Indeed. What do you think?"
Kara asked.
"Kuh, maybe a very powerful fighting monster!"
Aeri suggested.
"No. no. Probably a beautifully rainbow coloured bird."
Ulva said.
"Pfft... She's obviously going to beco sothing black like ."
Kawaii said cockily.
"And what makes you think that?"
Aeri asked.
"Well, we did evolve at the sa ti."
"That makes no sense whatsoever."
"Teehee, you sure?"
