Roland

Chapter 5 Desperation

Three of them were running through the long hallway, thinking that the goblins had been chasing them all along, they kept on looking for the where adventurers were. The place they arrived at were really big. In the past this place were used as a barrack, the old unused weapons, the armory, and there were so many rooms for the soldiers. The place was abandoned during the great war.

"Hey guys I think I find them..."

Edward said suddenly, everyone stopped right away and came over him.

"Ugggh...!" Sarah puked

There were the adventurers that entered the dungeon with Ron. All of them died, and it seemed that they were tortured by the goblins. That view was really disgusting, but for Edward who had been in the place where his friends were killed in goblin ambush, was calm and he examined what had happened to the adventurers. For Ron that was the first time he saw dead bodies, but he was not scared at all. It seemed that he had been in that situation before. Ron helped Edward check around.

"How can you two be so calm!?"

"I have seen the goblins attack Sarah, It was during my training day as soldier. My group was murdered right in front of my eyes."

"Oh so you are one... of the group that...." Sarah puked once again

"Yeah I am in the group that was attacked that day- "

"Hey guys I think we can use this equipment." Ron cut Edward speech and threw something to Edward.

"Oh good job. You find it, Ron!" It was another smoke bomb from the adventurer's pocket.

"Guys... We'd better move on. I can hear a goblin yell just now..." Sarah warned Ron and Edward.

The three of them started to run once again in a hallway, but it wasn't long before they found themselves entering the dungeon further in rather than going out from it. Now not only the goblin who chased them but also a team of kobold and some of the prime ape were now chasing them way down to the single big room where they could lock the door.

"God dammit Ed!"

"Whattt!? How the hell did I know this was the way out!?"

"Oh don't look at me, I don't know that the dungeon was this deep. I just entered with the rest of the adventurers who had died."

"ARRRRGH! This is all your fault Ed, We shouldn't follow this boy!"

"How is this my fault!?"

The arguing between Edward and Sarah had taken a while. On the other hand Ron started to explore around the room and wondered why there were no monsters inside of this room. And Ron found the reason why there were no monsters. Inside the room was a book. it looked like a normal book, but when you came closer to it, the harder you breathe normally. That book was a grimoire.
