Spectral Regalia

Ch 80: Grand Master Level

Felia was the first to speak, as she had invested quite a bit into this dungeon. "What do you mean it's dangerous to venture further? Haven't you and Clovis dealt with all the threats so far?!" Avrin glanced at her through the eye sockets of the mask, gazing quietly.

"I'm sure he has his reasons. Right, Avrin?" Clovis spoke with a somewhat serious tone, while Kael dared not speak or interrupt anything. Avrin finished the last spoonful of the stew before placing the bowl down.

"That Draconian told me there is a stronger opponent here. Although I'm sure I can fight with it, I don't want to risk Kael's safety. Half my reason for coming here, after all, is for his training."

Felia grunted quietly. "Are you even listening to yourself, Avrin?! You come this far and you're backing out? Leave Kael with us and you do what you need. We can take care of him while you fight" Avrin listened to her. He had already considered this, but if by chance he dies, then he would be leaving Kael to die. He was certain that Draconian wouldn't let anyone get out alive after he is dealt with.

"We'll continue ahead, and if I judge things to be too great a threat, you and your men are to take Kael outside the dungeon without waiting" Felia gave a sigh of relief. She knew that if Avrin where to leave, their battle potential would drastically decrease.

"Fine. Sounds good to me." She let a soft smile out. "We'll rest for a bit longer before we head off. Together, hopefully?" Avrin nodded. "It's probably for the best." Avrin stood up and began walking off. "-If I'm to deal with another Draconian on that level, I need a way to conserve dark matter. There must be some way of achieving this-"

Making his way around the camp to his previous spot, he was met with a familiar voice. "Heya, Avrin!" Stopping to take a look, he saw Wyni with the large, menacing Legion Hammer behind her back. She had a look as if she had won the lottery. "Oh, it's you. Enjoying your new toy I see?"

Wyni couldn't help but giggle shamelessly. "This unique toy is really something. I'm sure I can do some real damage to the dragon things now. I can't wait to fight some more" She placed both her hands on her hips proudly, as her tail swayed around from behind.

"I'm sure you will get your chance." Avrin quietly sat down cross legged, while leaning against the wall. His hands softly cupped together. Wyni rubbed her cheek and spoke. "I overheard what you and the others were talking about.... So, regarding Kael... You can leave his safety to me. As long as I'm around, not a hair on his head will be touched"

Avrin knew Wyni had feelings for Kael, but from the sound of her voice, it seemed to be deeper than just the usual love and care. "Does he really mean so much to you?" Avrin's curiosity spoke out. Wyni immediately nodded. "Of course. He reminds me of my little brother back home."

Tilting his head a little, Avrin felt it was something like this. "I see. Well, I leave his care in your hands than. "Wyni felt somewhat relieved. After nodding and thanking, Avrin she left, taking the hint that he needed his own time.

Meanwhile, within the depths of the dungeon, two large Draconians lay injured, while smaller draconians emitted mana around their bodies to try and heal their wounds. These two Draconians were none other than the 4 armed one as well as the agile one.

Although conscious, they decided to remain still. The 4 armed Draconian made slight grunting sounds and weird vocal sounds. The other Draconian near him, that Avrin had recently beaten, spoke. "I know! I'm going to tear that bastard to shreds... My eyes still burn from that weird magic tool he used... Big brother, are you really going to wait for him?!! Can't you go kill them all now!?... He stole my weapon!!"

A figure seemingly cloaked in some a sort of skin-like material remained seated, facing into a deep hole in the ground that was lined with crystals of all sorts of colors.
