Chapter 141: The 2nd Floor (II)



Chapter 141: The 2nd Floor (II)

Zen continued to wander around the 2nd floor where the worker slimes were confirmed to have no monsters lurking.

He wanted to investigate the structure of this floor since each floor seems to be different from the other.

Not only that, the monsters on this floor were more ferocious and stronger than the ones on the 1st floor.

"This labyrinth seems more like a game and I can imagine a dragon might suddenly appear out of nowhere to be a boss fight," Zen exclaimed loudly, shocking Leila Dragoon and Krista Dragoon.

The mention of a dragon appearing made them tremble slightly as they knew more about this mythical creature than Zen.

"S-Stop spouting nonsense. Do you know how rare dragons are in this world? They have not appeared in the last 300 years after a worldwide war between kingdoms and Demons." Krista Dragoon said with her body shaking in fear whenever she read this in an ancient book.

A book that clearly illustrated a dragon ravaging and massacring the demons and humans for infiltrating its territory and enrages him.

Ever since that date, no demons or humans drew a boundary line to never bring their war over the territory of the dragon. No one has dared to set foot in there in fear of arousing its rage once again to set their place in a blaze.

"Sister Krista is right, dragons are not to be mentioned lightly and we have to be careful whenever we talk about it," Leila Dragoon said and supported Krista Dragoon's words.

Meanwhile, Zen was dumbfounded by the seriousness of the two princesses. He couldn't understand their position and current thinking since the past event of this world never happened to him before.

'Isn't it just talking about dragons? It's not like they're forbidden or prohibited content in my world.' 

Zen shrugged his shoulders and decided to ignore them to continue his investigation.

However, Leila Dragoon stopped his track by tugging his sleeve and stare at him deeply, almost like asking him to say he understood.

Seeing the cute and bright eye look from Leila Dragoon, Zen heaved a soft sigh. Patting her head slightly with his other hand, Zen nodded his head shortly after.

"I understand. I will not talk about dragons very lightly again," Zen promised Leila Dragoon while his mind thought differently.

'Hmph, if I ever see a dragon, I'm going to make it my bitch and ride from now on. Riding a dragon would definitely be much cooler than Kuro.' Zen exclaimed inwardly.

If Kuro was present and heard his thinking, he would have vomited blood from depression for such a heartless and scoundrel master he got.

Leila Dragoon was suspicious of Zen but still nodded her head bashfully and let go of her hand that's tugging his sleeve.

"Oi, I know you're a lecherous scum but don't you try and flirt with Leila in front of me." Krista Dragoon threatened as she brought Leila Dragoon behind her back.

Zen could not handle Krista Dragoon's behavior. 'Do you have a multiple personality disorder? First, you ask me to keep her safe and now you're blocking her from me. What the heck?'

The worker slimes remained ignorant of the current awkward situation as they continued to bounce everywhere in excitement for a new environment.

Some were even eager to shoot their acid shot onto the wall and when that happened, Zen narrowed his eyes at the wall that's been shot.

Walking forward, Zen examined the wall conditions from being hit with the acid shot and became shocked.

'The walls are undamaged but I clearly remember the worker's slime acid shot almost melted the wall completely on the 1st floor. So not only is the environment and mana different here but the wall durability also changes.'

To confirm this mystery, Zen ordered the worker slimes to fire their acid shot into one particular wall consistently.

The worker slimes obeyed and fired their acid shot rapidly at the wall. The wall continued to be barraged by the acid but Zen's expression only turned more solemn.

Not even a dent or any sign of melting.

'The walls were practically connected to the 1st floor but it seems like there's a formation on this floor. One that is even more powerful than the 1st floor.'

Zen scratched the back of his head in annoyance for such mysteries of this labyrinth which seemed to be created in a rush yet highly detailed.

"The walls are different so I'm guessing you're onto something again." Krista Dragoon suddenly spoke when she saw Zen is struggling as he stared at the wall.

She also found it suspicious to see the worker's slime acid shot to deal zero damage against a wall when its acidity was strong enough to even melt a magic barrier in an instant.

"Sigh, I may be onto something but with the current data I get. It's not enough to make an accurate prediction besides an educated guess. However, I wished to be 100 percent so the only way to figure out my current conjecture is by ascending the next floor quickly." Zen said solemnly as he tried to hurry his action.

However, at this moment, Leila Dragoon was using her mystic eye to check the wall and some blood started leaking out of her eyes. Krista Dragoon noticed the change and hurriedly shouted in anger.

"LEILA," Krista Dragoon blocked her vision quickly before casting some healing magic on her to soothe the pain.

"How many times do I have to tell you to stop using your mystic eye over the limit? Did you forget the last time you overused your mystic eye?" Krista Dragoon continued to scold Leila Dragoon in a harsh tone. 

Leila Dragoon didn't dare to reply to her as she lowered her head and held a pitiful expression.

"Hmph, the next time you dare to disobey my words again then you can forget about accompanying me ever again and stay at home." Krista Dragoon didn't care about her pitiful expression and lectured her even more.

Zen was watching the current scene in silence without uttering a single sound. 'The next time huh? Seems like they have more secrets that I don't know about.'
