The Second Incarnation of the God of Creation

Change, and a forgotten emotion?

The deep blue light of the bluish flames continued to flicker while at the same time giving a warm light amidst the darkness, I once again heaved a sigh as I slap my cheeks gently.

Even though I have a lot of question regarding the dream I had a few moments ago. And I have a lot of things I'm worrying about in the future, right now, the most important thing is to complete the quest.

I turned my head and saw Alya tending to Ben who had just woken up and walked back to them leisurely. Nikita silently followed behind me.

"Alright let's get going. Kill any goblins you see and find the kidnaped villagers."

I said calmly. Hearing my words everyone nodded their heads with eyes brimming with determination.

At that I also nodded my head and moved along swiftly passing the flicking blue flames that even though I was currently twenty feet away I could still feel its intensity.

I then pulled out my sword that had been stuck into the ground and sheath it back inside my scabbard.

A click sounded as my sword was sheathed.

We walked through the dark and serene cave for roughly thirty minutes but, within that time we have not encountered another monster or any other beast living inside the cave.

"This cave is quite strange, don't you think?"

The one who ask that question was Nikita who was on high alert since the last attack.

Hearing her sudden question, Alya nodded along.

"I agree. There definitely is something strange going on here. First the black serpent and then the four eyed spider two powerful monster which are known well for their powerful poison abilities."

"Yes, I also notice while I was fighting that the four eyed spider seemed really intelligent which is something I find quite strange. Monsters aren't like beast that are able to gain intelligent over time. They focus more on their instinct than brain."

Nikita explained as her round shaped eyebrow narrowed into a frown. She placed her hand beneath her chin and hummed to herself apparently lost in thought.

I also found it quite strange after all that four eyed spider was not only really powerful but also really smart.

The moment it notices that someone was going to use some kind of attack it promptly attacks using its sticky web in close range it made use of its multi legs making it quite difficult and risky to face in close range.

"Here's a thought... what if this cave wasn't created naturally but was made by someone, and the monsters here are also monsters put here by that person, what do you think?"

Alya spoke up, giving her own hypothesis base on the situation.

At that Nikita slowly opened her crimson eyes and stared into the emerald eyes of Alya as though pondering about it deeply.

"You notice it too, didn't you?"

Nikita's crimson eyes flashed faintly as she asks Alya this question.

"Fufufu, you mean that this cave was probably made by human hands, you mean?"

"Yes, I notice this while we were walking but, I honestly thought I was reading too much into things but, with all the strange things going on inside this cave I believe there is more here than meets the eye."

Nikita said then turning her face towards me. I stared into her crimson eyes for a few seconds before sighing.

"Hmmm.... come to think of it the adventurer guild should have had at least some information about this cave but, I don't remember seeing anything about this place while reading, did any of you?"
