The thief-knight hushed his colleagues and pointed forward, to the exit of the tunnel. As silent as their noise-reducing armors allowed them, the Grail Knights walked towards the exit of the tunnel.
What they found was a massive cave that contained not only a device bigger than the ones they had seen on their way through the second floor but also a massive tortoise, possibly three tis as big as the other specins that they discovered. The biggest difference between it and them was that the larger tortoise had two snakeheads.
"It's sleeping... right?" - Spear-knight
"... Dan, get a sleep spell ready. Cent, you place a soundproof barrier." - Knight
"The sa procedure as the last ti?" - Dan (Priest-knight)
"The sa procedure as every ti." - Cent (Magician-knight)
"Herman, Wulf, you're taking care of the left one. I will take the right." - Knight
"Got it." - Herman (Spear-knight)
"Oki-doki." - Wulf (Pugilist-knight)
"El, you-" - Knight
"'Look out for any reinforcents', I get it." - El (Thief-knight)
With all their roles decided, the knights moved out. In order not to create any disturbances, Dan and Cent matched their timing and released their magic spells. Soon after, the cave of the two-headed tortoise was covered in a pale green barrier, while the tortoise itself was covered in white sparkles that made it fall deeper into sleep.
Herman struck the sleeping left head with his spear and Wulf used the force of his massive gauntlets to smash the spear further into the tortoise's head. They had gotten the idea of this "combination move" from watching people building wooden buildings with nails and hamrs.
In the anwhile, the leader knight had effortlessly decapitated the remaining head, showing off the difference in skill between him and the other two. Not that they cared about it. It was a clear fact that their leader was heads and shoulders above them in combat power. The leader knight made a gesture to Cent and the silence-inducing barrier was turned off.
"Alright El, we'll take over for you." - Knight
"The luggage is my responsibility after all." - El
El the thief-knight switched guard duty with the three physical knights and started to store the corpse of the two-headed tortoise in his Storage skill. anwhile, Cent and Dan went to the big machine in the back to place the last device needed to complete the Quest.
"This went smooth. So now what?" - Wulf
"We're going to the next floor after those three are finished. There's sothing I want to confirm." - Knight
"As expected of our great leader. And, the reason is...?" - Herman
"Checking out why the Black Baron is in this Dungeon." - Knight
"Oh, good idea. I knew he had a base out here, but still..." - Herman
"Then there's the question of why he had the base here at all." - Knight
"Wasn't he searching for the source of the drought? Just like us?" - Wulf
"And how did he know where the potential source was?" - Knight
"Fair point." - Herman
"Not that many people wouldn't notice the connection of a 'dried-out region' and a 'Dungeon that's got more moisture than anything else we've ever seen." - Knight
"As expected of Percel! You notice stuff like that fast!" - Wulf
"Well, you have to either be so idiot or having lived in this place for all of your life for not noticing that." - Herman
"Or maybe both." - Wulf
"Like that spider-thingy from before? It looked like it didn't notice we had noticed it." - Herman
"A local idiot could be just what we need to close down this place. I just hope that it steers clear of the Black Baron. He's a complete Darkness-attribute monster hater..." - Percel (Leader knight)

Hmm, that's not too bad of a skill those dinos have... even if it hurts to admit it... who would have thought that getting [Discern] to a high enough level to see rank E creature's skills would backfire like thi-hi-hi-haaAA-CHOOO!
*Sniff*. Is soone talking behind my back? Impossible. My reputation as a phantom demon would be worth nothing if that was true.

Finally! I was afraid that I had to go back and finish the job myself. A scroll-like thing appeared in front of , probably the reward, so I stuffed it into my Storage to use at a later date.
After seeing off the knights towards the floor boss, I went straight to Floor 3 to make a base, but I got sidetracked when [Discern] reached Lv.15 all of a sudden. Looking at those dinos that populate the floor used so much ti that I forgot about buying the skills I wanted. Now I can... wait a sec. I level-upped again, didn't I? Then...

I knew it! 101! One more than I needed! And without buying the enhancent skill!
And why's my Karma Value fallen again? I could swear it was a negative 94 the last ti I checked. Is it because I tricked those knights? Don't co and tell that my drawings are so bad that I got a decrease in my Karma Value because of that!?

It gives the shivers, so I wanna stay sowhere safe when focusing on the Skill Shop. So, what type of ho does the miss want? Just kidding~.
