Like the last time his knuckles were bleeding, but it was short lived, because soon the door was unlocked and a man with a grey beard appeared in the doorway.

The item was perfect for fights in water and Leo put it in his inventory. He had no immediate use for it, but he knew that it'll be used at least once.

Shrugging his shoulder he noticed that the mayor was already gone leaving Leo alone. With a slight smile he left the mansion and started walking into the forest.

It was time to raid a dungeon...

Looking at its name and Status Leo was sure that he was moving the right way, hence quickly disposed of the beast by using Lightning Bolt and went to the direction it came from.

He couldn't recall, but he was sure that the dungeon was already found, but nobody had managed to fully clear it. Approaching the entrance to the dungeon Leo noticed a crowd of people lining up in front of the dark cave. fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮

Seeing their faces Leo knew that most of them were low leveled and were yet to die, hence believed that they could easily clear the dungeon.

Gazing at all the parties he noticed a party of three devourer's biting their nails and looking around as if searching for someone.

' How lucky... '

Approaching the group Leo managed to control his smirk and tapped the closest demon's shoulder.

" Hello, may I join your group? "

The young demon with two small horns protruding from his head turned towards Leo and started assessing him.

" Are you a mage? "

His question was straightforward, but understandable. The group composition of 3 melee fighters was in shambles without a ranged fighter, hence having a mage or at least an archer was crucial. plicated tunnels, straight to the boss room.

Even though the party members were surprised, because they met no enemies along the way, Leo just called it luck. Little does his group members know he has this dungeon basically installed in his mind. Even if he was awakened in the middle of the night he would still be able to tell about every bit of the dungeon with perfect accuracy.

Pushing all the thoughts at the back of his mind Leo braced himself, to awaken the boss they'll need to kill a certain amount of Lackeys, hence entering the room would be useless without the boss being in it.

Acting as if he was troubled Leo quickly explained to Paul that they have to kill some monsters for the boss to appear.

While Paul was lost in his thoughts Leo asked David and Charles to give him their weapons. Since both of them held steel swords it was perfect for Leo's plan.

Clank...

He collided both weapons against each other creating a loud sound and probably informing some monsters nrearby of their presence.

His teammates didn't even have a chance to react as a wave of lackeys appeared around the corner and started nearing them at quick speed.

" Brace yourselves! "

Leo said, but got an angry reply from David.

" Why the fuck would you do that before even warning us! "

His eyes were gazing towards the wave of beasts rapidly approaching them, but he still had time to curse Leo. Well, it was pretty understandable looking at the number of enemies chasing after them.

Even Leo was slightly surprised by the sheer number of monsters approaching them.

" Just go in... "

Opening the door to the boss room he let Paul, David and Charles enter the room before closing the door, so they wouldn't be able to see what he was about to do.

Whoosh...

On Leo's palm a grey orb appeared and suddenly some kind of energy, not mana, a stronger type of energy started flowing into it when finally the Shadow Blast was launched at the incoming tide of the beasts.

Boom...

The whole cave shook, but Leo had no time to waste and quickly opened the door, pulling out his three teammates out of the boss room.

Since they expected Leo to be dead they were quite surprised seeing him alive. Paul almost lost his footing seeing the wave of monsters gone, completely gone from the face of Fragmental.

Pointing towards the direction where the monsters previously were he turned his eyes towards Leo.

" Where did they go? "

His eyebrows were raised while his hand was slightly trembling from the stress he went through in the last few minutes.

" I killed them... "

Leo's plain voice didn't help and Paul had to lean against the wall in case he fainted.

? ' He's dangerous '

Looking towards Leo he felt that his life would be in danger every time he was nearby. Paul was surprised that his newly acquired mage was strong enough to clear dozens of monsters, but he didn't complain.

Even David who was about to throw his tantrum, because of Leo's carelessness had some second thoughts.

' Maybe everything was in his control... '

Silence engulfed the group and seeing that they were losing time and some monsters might ambush them Charles clapped his hands.

" So are we going inside or not? "

Looking towards him all the group members nodded their heads while Paul started slowly opening the door to the boss room.

Entering the room Leo heard nothing else, but his breathing, it was very quiet.

Whoosh... Whoosh... Whoosh...

Suddenly the room was illuminated by the torches hung on the walls. Looking around the area Leo noticed nothing different from the past and sighed in relief.

' It seems that everything is still the same... '

Looking at the floor he felt slight vibrations pass through the ground and a bitter smile appeared on his face.

" Get ready, a big ass snake is about to show itself! "

Warning his teammates Leo lowered his posture so he wouldn't lose his balance easily.
