Chapter 24: Chapter 24: Dispenser

Year 397 of the Holy Calendar - Sixth floor of the Titan dungeon

(Alastor POV)

Climbing down the stairs, I find myself in a completely different place.

"This explains the cloud of steam halfway here" Alastor

Freezing ice covers everything in the corridor and that is reflected in the bone-chilling temperature.

"It is not a nice place to be half naked" Alastor

Right now I'm just wearing black pants made from Ifrit's scales.

[Do you think you could also make me a shirt?]

As the contract allows it, Ifrit and I speak telepathically.

{Stop fooling around and let's go}

I wasn't trying to fool around... but I can easily counter it, so I guess it doesn't matter.

[Are you sure you will not fall?]

She was hanging from my scarf while shapeshifting herself into a red snake.

{...If you underestimate me again, I'll choke you unconscious}

If I learned something from her over this time together, it is that she is more than capable of doing it.

[Yes ma'am]

I lower my body and touch the ground with my two hands, the temperature difference between my body and the ice becomes evident with the steam that it expels.

*Fsssss*

"Ghru?" Monster

Then I get my legs into position to start a sprint.

"GhRUUUUUGHH!!" Ice boar

A blue boar with icicles spilling from its head and sides, charges at me.

"HERE I COME!!!" Alastor

I accelerate forward, leaving the monster behind.

"Ghy?" Ice boar

I place the palms of my hands behind me and release fire to win more speed.

"GHYYYY!!!"

It is a shame to leave a perfectly roasted boar behind, but I can't leave Ifrit waiting.

{Left}

I use my right hand and legs to curve to the left side of the fork in front of me.

{...Right}

The next fork is already in front of me and now I use my left hand to go right.

With Ifrit as my guide, this will be easy.

......

...

{Here we are}

[That was fast]

In less than a day, maybe a few hours, we are already at the boss's door.

{I know this place like the palm of my hand, it would be weird if I got lost in my own house}

So she considers this place her home.

[That is true, let's open this]

I push the two big doors with all my strength.

*CRUSH!*

{...}

[...]

And they break into pieces.

[It was more fragile than I remember]

{You should work on that before going out of the dungeon}

[It was only a reflex]

"Jijiji"

{No time to laugh, go break that thing}

In the center of the boss room, a white and tall rectangular body awaits me.

"WELCOME!" Floor boss

Did it just...

"It can talk?!" Alastor

"TOO BAD!" White rectangular box

The standing white steel case with a glass display on the front speaks to me.

{It doesn't have intelligence, it can only say some words at random}

"THANK YOU!" White rectangular box

[That thing is creeping me out, so I will proceed to destroy it]

{That was the plan for the beginning}

From the glass screen, I can see a pack of bunnies made of ice being created inside and then being ejected at me from the compartment below.

{They explode at contact and release a freezing wave}

[so they are Ice bombs]

It doesn't matter, because they are...

"Too slow" Alastor

I focus my mana on my legs and use my speed to ignore the bombs and get behind the boss.

"TOO BAD!" White rectangular box

The body of the floor boss transforms into a sphere and rolls away from me.

It is faster than the bunnies, but...

"It's not enough" Alastor

I get behind the boss again and this time I kick it upwards.

*CRUSH!*

The spherical body gets nailed to the ceiling, but I didn't make any damage to it.

[It activated some kind of physical barrier before the impact]

With the glass at its center facing downward, I can see that it only has some scratches.

{Are you done playing with it?}

[I wasn't playing, I was testing my strength]

{This boss will not be enough for that}

It seems that way.

"..." White box

I can feel the mana inside the white box being consumed, something big is coming.

"REFRIGERATION!" White rectangular box

The glass screen opens upwards and the temperature in the room decreases drastically, way beyond before.

"..." Alastor

Layers of ice appear on every surface, even bunnies become ice sculptures under the skill of the boss.

{If you don't want to end up like that, you'd better remember something from our training}

"..." Alastor

Mana is the energy of every living being in this world.

"..." Alastor

The system was the bridge for that mana to reach the outside.

But that bridge had a very high price and little capacity.

*Fss*

Ifrit taught me that those bridges are unnecessary.

Humans exist within this world, Gaia is our land and its power does not belong to a third party.

Now that the bridge is burned, I can see it.

There is no need for a bridge because, in the bigger picture, everything is connected.

We don't need anyone's guiding hand, we can walk by ourselves.

I can walk by myself.

*Fsssssss!*

All the ice around me melts into steam.

"I will feel with my own hands"

The scar from the last boss on my chest shines.

"I will see with my own eyes"

Fire starts pouring out of my body.

"I will hear, I will taste, I will scream!"

The ice disappears completely from the room.

"I will be the owner of myself!"

I jump and grab the white box by its sides, melting it like a forge to a spoon.

"YOU....WI..N" White rectangular box

All the mana inside the melted monster dissipates into thin air, making the ending clear.

[It is my victory]

{Only one floor left}
