Twin Reincarnation: Epics Of The Worldline-Chapter 222 Devilant Colony

[Lucy's POV: ]

"El, I am telling you it's alright. There's nothing affecting me. Just look at my status window. There's no debuff or anything."

"Shaddup."

She was wasting her Mana using that magic skill of hers to use a thorough 'scan' on my body just because I was a little tired from climbing this mountain while carrying her.

'She doesn't understand how difficult it is for me to have her in my arms like that and running up a mountain like this one.'

Her weight isn't the problem but the level of control I need to not harm her is not something I can express without using my mental stamina.

Besides, she was also not as light as she made herself to be. Not in this mountain where Mana was practically all over the place.

'Her body's Mana conductivity has increased many folds in the past few weeks so many spells now cannot affect her naturally. Some magic skills wouldn't even work on her now, however, this very Mana conductivity made her more 'dense' than the usual heavy weighted objects.'

She knows that as well but untimely, it still means I was calling her heavy in a way, something she would never accept. Not in this life, certainly. She was more fit than any lady in our entire school, perhaps her physique was better than many of the physical class instructors of the school after our special training.

If I was calling her 'heavy' not fat but heavy even after all that, she would just better want to stick with being a mage, leaving her twin sword style alone, which would go against her ethics and rules.

She was a complicated person in many ways, however, the way she had been made from the start, the way her mind was, she couldn't ignore the things she had started herself. Especially things like choosing a profession.

'She chose to be a dual sword wielder, and she will see it to the end. That's just how she was.'

But this made the character of her made her worry about me more than one could think.

She considered me the most valuable element of her life, even more important than her own self, so… she was like this every once in a while.

"Hmmm… you seem to be fine."

[ "Yes, master seems to be fine. One wonders if it was because of the nature of Mana in these mountains that one's body channels uniquely that master had difficulties.

One searched for any irregularities with this place, however, the results weren't any special." ]

"So, Anna is saying my body that channels Mana differently was the problem?"

She looked at her with a certain smile that we all knew expressed her hidden anger. Not something we wanted to see.

[ "One just meant it might be a possibility. Perhaps the master was being more careful and used special movements that required more stamina? Only master must know the reason if there wasn't any external factor in play here~!" ]

I want to believe Anna isn't being sarcastic here but her tone said otherwise. Well, ultimately, she pushed everything at me once again, and, I don't know how to answer her now.

"Lucy darling~? What was the reason-"

"Oh! Would you look at the time~? The sun will start rising anytime now! Anna, you have analyzed the seal, right? Let's go in now that we are done here!"

"Don't change the fucking topic!"

"We have to, El. Let's talk about this later, ok? This is more important. They must have gathered in the target spots already. Let's goooo!"

The timing was important when hunting these creatures, she knew that better than me, so although she wanted to argue more, she just gave me a harsh glare and turned away.

"I am not going to forget this, remember that."

"Of course you aren't. You never forget."

But there are ways to make you forget things that only I know, effective ways that you know very well.

"Alright then." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸𝘦𝑏𝑛𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸𝑜𝘮

I nodded at her and, she nodded back. It was time to enter the second dungeon of our life. And, this one was a unique one as well.

"Anna, go in."

"You too, useless Cary… what are doing there anyway? What is that thing?"

Cary had some kind of butterfly in his hand, what was he doing with something like that?

[ "It's nothing, master." ]

He put the creature in his dimensional space and without any great reaction, went back inside his familiar mark. This wasn't his normal behavior, we both knew that. But at this moment, we let this one go.

"It's going to be alright."

"Oh baby, it's going to be fun as well~."

With one hand held together, we put our other hands on the surface of an invisible barrier, and, the Silver key that we got from the headmaster as a reward shined on our palms and a small passageway opened up in this barrierer as if an invisible door had opened up.

[You have entered the dimensional dungeon: Devilant Colony!]

[Do you want to enter the <D> rank dimensional dungeon?]

[Warning! You can only get out of the dungeon with an <Escape crystal> or after completing all the given tasks.]

"Of course we want to enter."

We were here for that in the first place. As for the <Escape crystal>, we have plenty of them. Not that we will need those things.

[Ding!]

As soon as we pressed the 'yes' on the screen before us, with a bright flash of light, both of us vanished from the normal mountain range, and reappeared in a place that, though was connected to the very place we were standing on, was a completely different world that that peaceful, attractive mountain.

[You have entered a <D> grade dungeon for the first time! Increased experience gain for three days.]

[Warning! You have entered a separate space from your world! A penalty will be applied for being a foreign existence!]

…

[Warning!]

[You have entered an area with lower system restrictions.]

[Skill: Red/Blue crown are enhanced inside the dungeon and enhances the skill effect of other innate skills.]

[Due to the effects of the Innate Skills: Red/Blue crown, you have resisted the environmental conditions of the dungeon.]

[Your body is adapting to the new environment!]

[Skill: Six walls (Enhanced) has resisted the restrictions of the dungeon! Stats have returned to their original state.]

[Skill: Six walls (Enhanced) has successfully resisted the dungeon restrictions and has gained experience in the data structure.]

[Many spectators feel nostalgic at the sight.]

[Many spectators express awe at the strange skills.]

[Many spectators click their tongues at the absurd sight.]

"As expected, these skills are strangely very special."

"Not even [Grade-4], (Level-5) overall protection skills have this kind of effect. These skills really are cheat skills."

"And the fact that they enhance all of the innate skills makes them even more special."

She created a little ball of fire on her palm and the simple orange fire started changing into a higher grade flame.

"This is amazing, fuck."

The flame turned pale blue first, then a little white, then they became black, and lastly, they became her [Blaze-5] purple flames of purgatory, and she threw the small, marble-sized flame into a distant place, and…

-Boooooooooooooooooooooooom!

[Spectator 'Last arsonist of Limina' has dropped their jaws!]

[Spectator 'Demon Lust and Cooking' has dropped their eyes due to the shock!]

[Spectator 'Guardian of basic magic' has a surprised look. They had not expected to witness such refined magic.]

[Spectator 'Explosion monster of Naina' has gifted some [Golden charcoal]! They are flabbergasted by the gorgeous explosion. The deaths of the demonic creatures soothe their hearts further.]

"The effectiveness of [Aspect of magic] increased by a whole 21%, lol. That's more than a few high-grade buffs combined~!"

"Let me try this as well."

This was our first time in a dungeon after the slime dungeon so the enhancement that our crown skills provided to our unique skills was shining for the first time~.

They enhanced all of our innate skills, which obviously included our Aspects, the skills that we gained from the system, as well as my Sword Dance. It enhanced the effectiveness of all of them.

"Hmmm. Let's see what happens if I use this small rock."

Even my Aura was enhanced since it was a unique energy, so, when I picked up a rock, filled it with my Aura, and threw it at another one of the random group of creatures wandering some distance away…

-Booooooooom!

[Spectator 'Teacher of Arsalan's Heros' is flabbergasted!]

[Many spectators of the 'Absolute Purity' faction admire the grower powers of ID: Lucifer. A large amount of Oz has been gifted.]

[Some spectators of the 'Pure evil' faction are smirking at the destruction of the lowly demon ants.]

[Some spectators of the 'Pure evil' faction are displeased by your actions.]

…

[The Master of the dungeon has sensed the presence of the intruders.]

"She sure had good senses."

"But, I think this is going to be easier than we expected."

"No shit, right?"

After crossing over to this side of the mountain, in this dungeon, we were currently standing in a completely different world.

The sky here was red, and so was the soil.

In the distance stood a castle towering over the horizon, before which armies of creatures marched like ants before the entrance of their colonies.

The area around us itself seemed endless with strange trees all around us that were different from the normal tall trees with brown trunks and green leaves. The trunks were black while the leaves that were unusually large were all white like ash.

The scenery before us seemed like something directly from hell. And since the creatures that inhabited this place were actually demonic creatures, a species called [Devil ants], this land once ruled by strong binges of a holy race, had turned into a part of hell itself.

"Hehe, what side do you want darling~?"

The sun was rising on the horizon, so, the time when the most ants were out of their home arrived for us.

"The left seems pretty fun."

"Alright then~! Let's start from the left side~!"

There were hundreds of thousands of enemies before us, hundreds of thousands of stacks of EXP.

There were three main quests and three sub-quests or 'tasks' as the system called it to complete, however before that, we were going to reach (Level-120) and unlock the first unique ability of our crown skills.

This would have been difficult if the debuff was applied to us, but, our unique skills blocked it so we didn't even have to use the special potions we prepared for them.

"I'm going ahead then~!"

"Slow down El!"

And we had Anna and a Dragonlord that knew how to destroy kitchens, so, this was going to be another massacre from our side…
