Child from the Dungeon-Chapter 206: Spin-Off Vol.1 ’Dark Stranger ’: Advancement Stage

[ In the 'Facility' ]

Year after year, continuous Tutorship and Training. DG-525 had begun to be used to it as he completed it all with the perfect score.

" It is time, DG-525. "

" It is time for you to take the next stage of your 'advancement'. " said the Facility Master as he put DG-525 on an operating table and was imprisoned in a pod. "

" You have done it well, all these years. "

" With this, I am sure that you're the greatest subject that I should rise up into the highest. " the Master says.

" Are you ready, 525? " he asks DG-525 as he is silent after all he has to do to fulfill the Master's crazy wishes for him.

"( I don't care anymore... )"

"( I really don't like it, the blood the wounds... )"

"( I hate it all, I just want to take some rest after doing all of this... )" DG-525 can only think that in his mind, he remembers the things he did over the years, the things he did for the Master for his experiments.

"( I took the lives of many for you, for your satisfaction... )"

"( But time after time, it begins to break me, all the deaths, all the cruelty of the experiments that happened. )"

"( All the fear... )" DG-525 remembers some memories where he had nightmares, seeing those he killed in the past, the other weaker Subjects.

* DG-525 cries in regret and pity. *

" I am ready, Master. "

" Please, just make it quick. "

" I just want to be free from this sadness, it's the thing that enslaved me, is it not? " DG-525 recounts the Master's words about crying.

" I want you to keep your promise of this 'Advancement', I just want to believe I be happy, be freed from the shackles of guilt. " 525 tells the Master which makes him scoff.

" Happy... "

" After all of those perfect scores, you are unhappy, tsk tsk... " the Master says in his place.

" You were always weakened by useless emotions, but don't worry, 525. "

" Once this is over, your advancement will make you anew, free from all of the guilt that prepares you for this moment. " The Master presses the button.

As the pod was locked, inside the pod, gasses began to spray as they filled the very sealed pod. From the above, great light begins to glow as the machine begins to fire something to DG-525, in order for his 'Advancement' to happen.

" There it is... " the Master says as the 'Advancement' Stage Level Up happens, The light from above lights 525's body as the process begins to 'advance' him.

As DG-525 gets 'advanced', he then remembers a memory where he made friends with the other subjects, he remembers playing with them as they are all the ones who always survive the training despite the odds.

But one day, the Master told all of them to kill each other, making them fight to death as the 'Collars' injected them all with rage. From the battle, only DG-525 survived, again.

* DG-525 roars hard, the process enraged him as it turned his body. *

" Subject DG-525 'Advancement' Error! Error! Error! "

" What!? What just- "

" What went wrong!? " the Master asks as the roar continues, Subject DG-525 is enraged thanks to the 'Advancement' that has been done upon him.

" Subject's condition critical! "

" DANGER! DANGER! "

" Subject DG-525 begins to wreak havoc. "

* Subject DG-525 roars, breaking free from the bindings and the pod. *

" Subject DG-525 escaped, Gakhh! " said a person as he screamed, in fear and horror, escaping from the enraged Subject DG-525.

Screams of horror could be heard, blood splatter and guns blazing, as Subject DG-525 growled with anger, killing the people relentlessly, Explosions happened, buildings were destroyed and chaos erupted in the unspecified place

" Subject DG-525 is on the loose, contain him now or else he'll wreak havoc upon the outside world! "

Subject DG-525 escaped the Lab where his Advancement Process was on the deal, leaving every Facility Member splattered on the ground, including the Master himself as he slammed him hard on the floor alongside the others.

Despite being enraged, in its advanced berserk form, Subject DG-525 runs while thinking about how to get out of the place, as suddenly he stumbled upon a machine, a machine that manipulates the Quantum Particles of the Gates which he used to escape after wreaking havoc along the facility as he also freed the other Subjects to do so.

* The Subjects Wreck it all and escape through the opened Gate alongside DG-525. *

As it happened, all the Subjects left all of it behind, as the Gates took them into other realms, to be freed from the facility.

" With this, I will have a new life... "

" With this, I will find my happiness. " DG-525 says in his mind as the Gate Portal brings him into a place where he will be destined to live forever.

( After that... )

[ Dungeon: Goblin's Nest Dungeon (Epic) ]

" The Goblins have been defeated, Knight Captain. " said a Knight as he reported to the captain.

" Hmm... guess that's all for the goblins, then. " said the Knight Captain as he rubbed his black hair.

" Then it's time to wrap things up, with my Wind Magic, that is! " said the Captain to the Knights.

" Now knights, prepare your fire! " said the Captain using his Wind Magic to pull all Goblin Corpses into one place in order for his Knights to shoot using their Fire Magic to burn them all.

" The Raid is a success, it's time for us to return then. "

" Roger that, Knight Captain, Duncan Donovan Grimshaw! " said the knights, calling the Knight Captain's name, as they prepared to leave the Dungeon, suddenly...

* Gate Opened. *

" Rah! " a thing came out from it, a monstrous being covered by the smoke, seeing the Knights in front of him who gone panic as they all witnessed the very creature before them.

" GAH, ANOTHER MONSTER WAVE! "

" ATTACK! "

(In the meantime. )

" It seems another potential customer had entered this very realm. "

" Guess the Elysium Haven is really a 'Sanctuary', huh? " said the person as he talked to himself.

" Better prepare my merchandise... " he stands up.

" After all, as the Black Merchant... "

" I shall take this opportunity to meet a new Consumer of my products. " he says to himself as he leaves his place and quickly flashes towards the place where his 'consumer' is just being summoned.
