Amy having read the message the box contained, took another look around her cell. As she most certainly didn’t want to be a dungeon’s pet. The only things she had missed when she first looked around was the wooden pallet in the corner and a small hole in the other corner. Amy then decided to walk up to the bars. Looking around she could see a pair of demons guarding a door that probably led out of the cellblock. In the other direction, she saw a patrol round a corner and disappear from her sight. Needing more info she decided to use analyze on one of the demons.

“Well fighting my way out won’t work, I’ll run out of stamina and mana long before I beat that demon, and that's assuming I don’t get hit. That thing can kill me in one hit, no wait that might be one way to escape, might be too easy though. Really depends on the rules involving escape, though.” thought Amy before looking through her notification logs. She normally hid them since they were annoying to read through, she started looking through them to see if they included the rules for escape. It took a while, but she found the notification she was looking for.
Rules for escaping the dungeon.
For an escape to be considered successful you must escape the cell block.
Dying during the attempt is considered a failed attempt and will teleport you back to your cell, all other False Death rules will still apply.
“Okay, I thought it would be a bit easy if you could escape that way. The rule about death basically means I only have one attempt, now just need to get out of this cell, without the guards noticing. Maybe Mei can pick the lock to the cell,” thought Amy as she started studying the lock. It was hard to get a look at it, but it didn’t look too different to other locks she had seen. “I think Mei should be able to pick the lock, or maybe I could smash it. If I’m lucky the dungeon didn’t enchant the lock with indestructibility, I guess I should test that now,” thought Amy as she stepped back and readied an arrow. Once she was far enough back she took aim at the lock and used her Magic Arrow skill. Magic energy wreathed the arrow and it flew across the cell to strike the lock. It then hit the lock and bounced off leaving not even a dent, then she tried her Piercing arrow skill, which gave the same result. “Guess I wasn’t lucky.”
A couple of cells to Amy’s right Mei was studying her cell’s lock. The angle made things difficult, but she was pretty sure she could open it. Pulling one of her lockpicks out, she started trying to open the lock. As she was working on the lock she considered trying to speak to the others but felt it best to stay quiet. Less chance of attracting the guards’ attention that way. She felt she had almost figured out the tumblers for the lock when she heard a clanking sound, she looked to her left, just in time to see Amy shoot an arrow at the lock, only for it to bounce off harmlessly. She then looked at the guards to see if the guards had noticed, they had so she backed away from the lock and waited until the guards stopped watching them. Then she went back to the lock, after a few minutes she was rewarded with a click and then the lock opened and the door slowly swung open. Silently, she slipped out of the cell and moved to her neighbor’s cell.
It was Thomas’s cell, she immediately started working on the lock, while keeping an eye on the guards. She like Amy had also thought to look at the guard’s stats and checked the rules for escape. As a result, she was under no illusions about what would happen if the guards caught her. In less than half the time it took to unlock her own cell, she was rewarded with a click and the cell swung open. She silently told Thomas to go look down the hall at the other end of the corridor and then moved to unlock Amy’s cell. She had almost gotten the lock unlocked when Amy suddenly shouted making her jump back. Just in time to avoid a blade striking the spot, she had been in moments before.
She used her twin dagger skill, to try and stun the demon. She hit causing the demon to pause and then she ran towards Thomas who was looking around the corner. The sounds caused Thomas to look back, and then Thomas readied her blade. Before shouting, “not this way, too many demons.” Then she looked back to see the demon guard was already chasing her and closing rapidly. “Not much of a choice here Thomas,” thought Mei. She managed to get about halfway down the corridor before the demon reached her and then it used the skill Crippling Blow. This time despite the fact she saw it coming she failed to evade. {Note: Crippling blow. A blow aimed to cripple the target. High chance to inflict the crippled condition, moderate chance to stun. Damage is capped at target hp-1.}
You have been hit for 1268 physical damage
Skill effect crippling blow damage adjusted to 619
Hp 1/620
You have been afflicted with the crippled condition
She barely registered the message, before the pain caused her to blackout. Thomas seeing her get hit tried to rush to her only to be hit from behind, by a demon coming from the corridor. Both woke up in their cells again three hours later, their equipment gone.
Amy from her cell, watched the two stir, while trying to think of another way out. While trying not to be conscious of the fact that she was now in her underwear. After Mei’s failed attempt to escape the guards had opened the cells and then they stripped everyone down to their underwear, before relocking the cells. She had tried fighting them for her clothes, but the Lamia demons were B rank monsters with a great deal of physical strength. As a result, they easily subdued her and stripped her. “Mei, probably has an extra lockpick they missed, but that crippled condition the guard gave her will make things difficult. I could have dealt with it if the damn guards didn’t take my potions,” thought Amy. She waited a few moments, before asking those two a question.
“How you two feeling?” asked Amy.
“Like a mountain fell on me,” replied Thomas.
“I also feel like a mountain fell on me,” said Mei a moment later.
“I’d give you a potion, but the guards took my potions,” replied Amy.
“Why am I in my underwear,” asked Mei and Thomas, a second later when they noticed that their equipment was gone.
“The guards took our stuff, our weapons, armor, and supplies. The only thing we have left is our underwear,” said Amy. Then she continued, “unless you have something they missed.”
Mei tried checking the places she kept some extra lockpicks just in case. She quickly found that if she moved too quickly she was rewarded with sharp pains everywhere. After a couple of minutes, she found that the guards had found all of her lockpicks including the one she had sewed into her panties hemline.
“No, they got all my lockpicks,” said Mei.
“Great, got any ideas for getting out of these cells?” asked Amy. Mei than did a little thinking, without her lockpicks she couldn’t pick the lock. It was quite obvious that Amy had already tried to smash the lock, and the demons were just plain stronger and faster than they were. The only way they were going to get out is if they could sneak out, her being crippled from the blow made that difficult, but the first hurdle was getting out of the cell, which she had no idea how to do. If this was a normal cell, they could have tried digging, but dungeons were notorious for having indestructible walls and this one was no exception. After a while of thinking, she said, “No.” Before crawling across the floor and onto the wooden pallet which was a bit more comfortable than the stone floor.
Amy didn’t like hearing that no, since she was hoping the rogue would have an idea. She had already spoken with, Mara and Eri neither of which had ideas as well. With no idea, how to get out, she began to think about how she got here. She had only planned as going as far as the second-floor boss, she didn’t think her party could challenge the third floor after all. She then cursed the floor transfer trap she hadn’t expected and the dungeons pheromones. Which she was still trying to ignore, but it was getting harder. Then suddenly she heard moaning and looked in the direction it was coming from to see Eri masturbating. What little self-control she had left broke moments later and she started to masturbate herself as well. After masturbating, her head cleared and she realized that they had tried to escape too soon. That she should have waited, and observed the guard’s movement patterns, first before trying to leave the cells. Well, they still had around 20 hours, so she decide to wait and see if another opportunity arose.
It didn’t. She stayed up for hours looking for an opportunity, but none occurred. While she was waiting the guards came by and inserted trays of food into their cells via small doors on the bottom of the cell door. She was happy for the food, but the use of those doors foiled the only plan she had thought of while waiting. Eventually, she fell asleep while waiting, and when she woke up she found herself sore and still in a cell with no way out. She was still looking for an opportunity and trying not to succumb to the pheromones again when the message she was dreading finally appeared.
You have failed to escape the dungeon!
New title gained!
Dungeon Pet
Looking at the message she thought, “well, let’s see how bad this new title is.”
Title: Dungeon Pet: You are a dungeon’s pet. You can’t leave the dungeon without your master’s permission. You can’t harm the dungeon creatures. You can’t harm the dungeon. Can no longer equip items without the master’s permission. +50% to learning skills and spells when taught by master.
“Could be worse, I guess,” thought Amy after appraising her new title. She was just considering all the implications when she heard a clicking sound and looked up to see a Lamia demon unlocking her cell. As soon as it unlocked the door, for the first time since she had dropped here the demon spoke to her.
“Master would like to see you,” said the Lamia Demon. She looked around and saw other demons letting her friends out of the cells and they were even kind enough to use a potion to heal both Mei and Thomas. The demon then signaled her to follow. Seeing no reason not to follow, she decided to follow the demon. Mostly so she could meet her new master.
