Chapter 95: 95 - A Person Or A Demon?

My body was tired from the amount of mana used. Maybe I was too angry at the time thinking he was the one who had killed my teammates.

But after what happened, was it him?

He didn't even try to attack, he stayed still while I hit him with my magic. If it had been him, surely he would have retaliated somehow. He wasn't weak.

From the amount of mana it emitted, I'm pretty sure that little thing alone had the strength of a B-RANK adventurer.

"Damn it, what do I do now?" My body was tiring from using magic, so I couldn't do anything but sit right there to rest.

I sat there for a while, waiting for my companions to show up, but they didn't show up, they had completely disappeared.

"It's okay, just standing here isn't going to do any good." Because of my magic, the environment had become a little nicer, it wasn't as hot as before, so I was able to rest a little easier and I wasn't sweating as much.

I got up and walked again to where I had found water before, when I got there the water was still coming out, it seems there is a lot of water here. In addition to drinking, I again filled my bottle with water.

'So now let's move on.' So I started walking, the weather here was already more pleasant and there weren't so many lava pits, the view I had in front was like a big desert of rocks, but at least there wasn't any more lava.

But how long would it take me to cross this desert of rocks? And will he ever have an end? I didn't know, but I kept moving forward.

Sometimes I would shout my teammates' names, but I didn't get any response.

Because of the dry weather, I was getting thirsty quickly, but I was rationalizing water, so I had to control my thirst.

"Hm?" As I walked, I thought I felt the earth shaking a little, had a bigger volcano erupted around here?

Boom~~

"Hey, this is getting dangerous." I heard a big explosion and the earth began to shake uncontrollably, it was just like an earthquake, I even had trouble standing up.

As I continued to crouch down trying to figure out where this was coming from, the ground beneath me began to crack, forcing me to get up and run away from here even with difficulty.

AAAAAAAAAAA~~

The earth split completely and a great scream of a person can be heard, it seemed like I had heard that voice before, wasn't that the voice of Theod?

"Theod, is that you? What happened?" The tremor had passed, but now there was a huge hole in the ground, his scream had come out of there, without thinking I approached the hole to see what was inside.

As soon as I looked into the hole, I noticed Theod inside, but I could only see from his waist up, below it was completely dark for some strange reason.

"Is it you, how did you end up there? Do you want help getting out?"

"You idiot, back off, it's dangerous." Before I had any chance to ask Theod what had happened, two glowing red eyes popped out of the dark background, making me run away immediately.

"WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?" Just as I walked away, a large monster that looked a lot like a worm or dragon came out of the hole holding Theod in its mouth, only half of Theod's body was outside.

That monster was definitely over twenty meters long, no, only a part of his body was out, I've never seen anything so big in my life. That's bigger than a dragon.

The monster had red scales all over its body, some lava was running down its body too. His red eyes were staring at me. He had a face like a dragon, and his sharp teeth were intimidating.

I've never seen a monster like that in my life, my legs were shaking so I couldn't even start running.

"Run, quick, you can't beat this thing, please-" Before Theod could finish saying something, that thing opened its mouth and then started chewing it in front of me, the monster was eating Theod as if he was just any piece of meat.

When he started chewing Theod, I couldn't do anything or say anything, I just kept paralyzed with fear as I watched it happen in front of me, I was shaking.

I never thought I would see something like this in my life, a monster I can't even think of defeating, that's impossible.

After a long time, we had finally made it down that huge mountain of ice. It was easier going down than going up as we had more support when we were going down, but it was still more dangerous.

It was much easier to slip when we were going downhill, but that didn't happen.

"So what did you see up there, did you see anything?" Riehol asked before I could even go all the way to the ground.

"We didn't find anything that looked like a way out, but we found unfrozen lakes, we can drink water there, just keep going."

"That's great, our water is all frozen, just sucking on ice doesn't quench thirst." Riehol looked happy.

"Yes, but we need to be careful. Strangely, only some lakes aren't frozen, there might be something in the water."

"You're right, but let's go there and see how the lake is up close, after that we'll look for a way out."

"Right."

After my little chat with Riehol, we started walking again. The cold seemed to be gradually lessening, or maybe we were getting used to it, but it was easier to walk around here.

We walked for a while until we reached one of the lakes there were several lakes close to each other.

"It is water." Riehol bent down and took the water from the lake. He started to smell it and then put it on his tongue, after doing that, he spat out the water: "Damn, this water is full of magical power, if we drink this here we will end up feeling sick."

"Serious?" I approached and also put some water in my mouth. It was true.

If we were to drink water with magic power, it would cause great pain in the stomach, so it is always good to avoid doing something like that. Any drink and food besides potions are bad for humans.

"We can't drink this water, dammit."

"But it was to be expected since it was created by the dungeon, it's normal to have magical power, as well as all that ice."

"Yes, let's move on then."

We had nothing to do, so we moved on, many adventurers seemed discouraged as they were already tired of continuing to suck the ice.

"Riehol and Cas, can I talk to you for a bit?" Since we were just walking, I could use this moment to talk to them.

The two approached, so I spoke to them about what I had seen. That person with great armor on top of one of the mountains.

"A person? In this place?"

"Are you sure it was a person?"

"I'm not sure, it had a human body, but it wore an outfit or armor completely made of ice, and I couldn't see its face."

"A human body... Has anyone ever entered this dungeon before?"

"It doesn't seem to be the case, I've never seen anyone wearing an armor made of ice like that thing before, maybe it's some monster or something."

"With a human body? Maybe it's a new kind of monster, or maybe a demon?"

"It could be a demon, I think the most likely is that it's a demon, now I don't know he's strong or not."

"I hope it's not one, usually demons have an unusual strength."

"Yes.."

Riehol and Cas looked a little worried, but I calmed them down. From what I saw and felt from that presence, he sure was strong, but I didn't feel any malice from him, it was like he didn't want to attack us.

I hope that's what it is.

If he ends up attacking us, we'd be in a lot of trouble.. Probably even I would die in just a few moves from him, I don't even want to think about something like that happening.
