When the ti cos and I sense soone approaching the base, I don't even bother waiting for William to head out to et her. I just teleport out of my house and then teleport several more tis until I arrive right in front of the woman. A woman who I can clearly tell is the very sa one from before. And she looks mad the mont she sees .
Not that I care if she's made or not as I reach over and grab her neck, lifting her into the air despite her being taller than by a few inches.
She tries to speak, but I cut her off, not bothering to listen to what she has to say considering the rather insane and very angry look in her eyes as she practically claws at my hand wrapped around her throat. Then I tilt my head slightly and ask, "So why are you here? Aside from killing of course."
I lighten my grip slightly to let her speak in the off chance she chooses to answer, and all she does is gasp in a breath of air and scream rather hoarsely, "You bitch!!! Let go! You're the reason I lost everything!"
Lost everything? Guess Gramps really did a number on her even if her Noble Rank saved her from worse punishnts.
That or he chose to let her live just as a punishnt. I could see him doing that. Taking everything away from her and leaving her with nothing or sothing.
He can be rather ruthless when it cos to people outside our little family.
Anyways, the woman starts babbling on about what exactly Gramps did, which, as I guessed, was basically just take away everything she cared about, left her without a way to grow stronger through sohow taking away her affinity – which explains why she has a different class now – and banned her from anywhere she could possibly get help from. Then he had soone he knew put a curse on her that would inflict extre pain if she ever got near , Aidan, Astrid, or Aidan's sister ever again.
Just as brutal as I expected.
How she rembered all of that when William said she had amnesia is beyond though.
Actually, I ask, "Didn't you have amnesia? How do you rember all of this?"
The insanity in her eyes grows and she starts floundering around everywhere, swinging her legs and punching and kicking as she screams so rather difficult to understand comnts. But after silently listening and nodding my head for a while, I finally understand everything. I think.
Then I snap her neck and toss her to the side with a Quantum Bolt that makes her corpse blow up.

"Did you get all that?" Aidan asks, having arrived at so point during the woman's screaming fit. Although considering how loud she was being I'm surprised the rest of the base isn't out here as well.
I nod my head and answer, "Yeah. Looks like whoever ssed with her mories just filled her head with knowledge of only , Astrid, and Gramps, and nothing else. They also seem to have taken away her ability to link with the first ranked, which is a little frightening." I frown. "Whoever did it has to have a Legendary Feat. But for there to be another one so close by…"
"Do you think the hellfrost dragon found them and is working with them, bringing them around everywhere?" Aidan asks, and I can't help but consider the possibility.
The idea of a Class S species and a Legendary Feat holder working together makes a little nervous though, even with it looking like they're helping us. Since they would've known she wouldn't be any threat to at all, making sending her to do harm a pointless endeavor. And if they are strong enough to ss with her mory, they're strong enough to read it as well. So they'll know who that woman was to and Astrid.
I stare at the still-glitching corpse for a few seconds before turning around and beginning to head into the jungle.
"My soul's recovered enough, so I'll be heading off to find the dungeon the hellfrost dragon ca out of," I tell Aidan without looking at him.
Aidan doesn't say anything for a second before eventually answering rather awkwardly, "Well, uh, I'll just deal with… this…" And I don't even have to look back at him to understand that he's referring to disposing of the woman's corpse.
As I walk away, not even teleporting this ti, I take a deep, shaky breath. And the mont I get out of sight from William and Aidan, I feel my hand clenching into a shaky fist.
Weak or not, the mory of that woman holding Astrid and both by the throat… isn't one I'll be getting rid of soon.
But at least she's dealt with and I'll never see her again.
At least Astrid wasn't here to deal with her.
I take in a deep breath once more before letting it out, clenching my fists and unclenching them once, and then beginning to teleport towards the Safe Zone where I switch out Poison Resistance for Dungeon Map. Then I start teleporting through the jungle while using Energy Manipulation to find the dungeon. And it doesn't end up taking very long to find it strictly due to the rather large wave of energy I feel coming off of it the mont I get near. Especially since I start my search at the center of the island, planning on going outwards from there only to find it on my way there instead.
Convenient.

Guess it matches the now-dead level-capped monster of this island.
Without any hesitation, I walk up to the structure that is literally just a large arc with a portal under it standing in the middle of the open before touching it and entering inside of the dungeon.
Ti for another dungeon run.
