"Captain I'm going to dungeon now." Said by Maxim

"Searching for those newbies?" Asked by Deimos, Maxim nodded his head. 

"According to those blacksmiths and pharmacists, seems like those two brats are preparing the equipment that is for a far expedition." Said by Hector.

"Mid floor huh..." Whispered by Dilios.

"Riiinnggg...." A sound from a small magic crystal ball. 

".....Ok I noted." The crystal ball turn off the light after Deimos put it down.

".....It seems like there have been a path collapse in floor 13 and got adventurers witnessed a minotaur wandering in floor 14." Announced by Deimos. 

Maxim and Hector immediately rush out their base after hearing the announcement. 

Meanwhile in dungeon floor 14.....

"Ihwa are you ok?" asked by Zald while holding her hand. 

"Yes...Where is Alexander and Sinclair?" Answered by Ihwa with a weak voice. 

".....It's seems we are falling into the floor 14, I can still see the paths of floor 13 from here." with Zald looked up. 

"I assumed they are also at floor 14..." Whispered by Zald.

"What....What shall we do now!!" A confusedly loud voice from Ihwa. 

"This....this is all my fault! If I haven't this arrogant! If I have notice my own weakness!" A self blame from Ihwa.

"Ihwa stop it. Let's focus..." Said by Zald.

"How can you be so calm? Aren't your partner also missing? You hated me right? I lured this to you!" Ihwa keep crying.

"I said stop it!!!" Shouted by Zald. 

"Eh......?" Shocked moment from Ihwa.

"huh....We are on an adventure Ihwa, I don't assume everything go according to the plan from the beginning." Said by Zald.

"I trust Alexander, so you should on Sinclair." Zald keep explaining.

"Hmp! They are stronger than we thought." Said by Zald with a smiley face. 

After that those two decide to follow back to the floor 13 entrance....

"Ihwa....If I were Alexander, I would probably head back to the entrance." Said by Zald.

"Why...Aren't we should search the nearby? We fall from the same place." Asked confusedly by Ihwa. 

"We didn't saw them where we were fall into, assume they also. So the common safe spot where we will have in mind is the entrance." Explain by Zald. 

"We don't know what we will encounter in floor 14 so head back floor 13 is the safest choice." Zald keep explaining. 

From where Zald and Ihwa to the paths in floor 13 need to pass through around a circular road to match one of the path. Although mid floor is more complicated from upper floor, but the pattern of routes connection is somehow figural. 

"Ihwa! Incoming!" Shouted by Zald.

Swarm of bad bat fly through the two again, all they can do is to relied on their swordsmanship and speed. 

"Tskk!!""Awk!!""Tskk!!""Awk!!""Tskk!!""Awk!!" dying moaning from monsters roam through the whole passage. 

"huhuhuh....Ergggg..."Breathes from Zald.

"Zald! Are you ok...." Asked worriedly by Ihwa. 

"haha...Somehow still can tolerate." Reply by Zald with a slightly smile face. 

(Damn it....I'm hungry...Hmmm I could do an experience...) Zald pov.

"Hellhound!!" Shouted by Ihwa.

A hellhound rush from a cave shooting fire balls towards the two. "Schwig! Schwig!" next moment two sides of it's leg has been sliced off. 

"Awwwwk...." A pain moaning from the hell hound. 

"Wait!" Shouted by Zald for stopping Ihwa to kill it. 

"....?" Ihwa look at Zald

"Schwig! Awkkkk!!!" Zald slice off a piece of meat from that wolf.

"Paw!" he punched towards it's stomach and the wolf breathes fire unconsciously.

"What are you doing..." Confused and shocked looked from Ihwa.

(He's burning it's meat?) Ihwa pov.

Zald split the burned meat into half and....."Here you go."

"Are you kidding me!!! What did just do!!!" Scream by Ihwa.

"Eating." Simple and calm reply from Zald. 

"Eating monsters!?" Still scream by Ihwa.

"I'm hungry. If I didn't eat something I'm not sure I can make back to the entrance." Explain by Zald.

"Calm down. The situation apply to you too, here...eat it." Zald passed the other half meat.

"But...but...""urgggg..." Ihwa face turn red. 

"Haiz....Just take it, I won't tell." Said by Zald.

Then Ihwa has her worst nightmare....

Zald and Ihwa reached the match path.....

"This is odd..." Said by Ihwa.

"Yes...too quiet." Reply by Zald

(No monsters in a place where should be full of monster.....The only reason this is happening is....) Zald pov.

"Ihwa!" Quick Whispered by Zald with already holding his sword with a fighting stance. 

"!!!" Ihwa also holding her sword tightly while staring at the dark cave.

"Pam! Pam! Pam!" A heavy foot steps walking towards them in the dark cave.

(Because there is a specific monster that scare others off!!!) Zald pov

"Minotaur!!!" Scream by Ihwa.
