The Abandoned Hunter

Chapter 81: Owning A Dungeon

"System... status isn't necessary right now... we can see that later! For now let's..." despite saying that he saw the status.

"Are you kidding me... you call this a WOLF!!?"

"..."

"SEBAS!! WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS EXACTLY!!?"

Sebas immeditely responded to his call and arrived near him as soon as he could.

"You called me my liege?"

Jay immeditely turned towards him and asked, "What exactly is this? You told me that it is just a wolf!"

Sebas paused for a moment and then said, "It indeed is a wolf... but it is a rare breed of wolf my liege."

Jay looked towards him and sighed. Then he turned his gazes towards the pup which was as thin as a stick due to the malnutrition.

In fact it was kept to starve completely and that was why it's skin was sticking to its body.

"Hmm... you didn't do a good thing Sebas. You already know that this is a rare breed yet you killed so many of them..."

Sebas didn't make any excuse since he knew his guilt. He couldn't utter even a single word anymore because he knew that he couldn't bring them back to lives.

All he said was, "I'm sport my liege. From next time I won't repeat it. I will ask your permission before I do something similar like this beforehand."

Jay wasn't someone who could hold a grudge against someone even after he has asked for forgiveness.

So since Sebas who was a foe just a few moment ago who became his servant right now had asked for forgiveness, he had to grant it to him and thus he said, "Okay that's fine. Just don't go on killing anyone unless you ask me."

"Yes.", he replied almost instantly.

Jay was again busy with the pup after hearing his reply. But he couldn't possibly take care of it right now since he has to rescue his sister first.

"Hmm, Yes! That's a good idea..."

He immeditely turned towards Sebas and said, "Listen Sebas, ask all the vampires to return all the girls from the place they had taken them from!"

"Yes my liege. It will be done tonight..."

"Huh? Tonight? You can't do it right now?"

"My liege, we have a curse due to which he can't go out during day time..."

Sebas was telling the truth. Even if a little bit of sunlight would touch them, their life force would start to deplete and that was why they never came out of the dungeon during day time.

"Okay, I understand. So by tonight they all should be back at the same place from where they had been disappear", he was about to complete his sentence when suddenly he understood something which he hadn't realized till now.

"No! Don't do that. It's a bad idea to take them to the same place as that of earlier..."

"My liege?", Sebas wasn't able to understand Jay's reasoning for taking back the order.

"If you were to go to the same place, you might get killed or captured since the hunters or cops might be waiting and investigating those places..."

His thinking was correct. If they had really went to the same place from where the girls had vanished, there was a high chance that they would have been caught by some hunter.

Jay didn't want them to suffer either since they had already swore their loyalty to him.

Sebas understood perfectly what Jay said.

"You really are amazing master! You think so perfectly..."

Jay just smirked a bit and then got busy with the pup again since all the problems was solved.

He then thought about exiting the dungeon right now since he has to go back to the campus too, but he had many questions in his mind.

He wanted to ask about origin of dungeons, and the place from where hunters are given powers. He even wanted to ask about other possibilities and different types of dungeons but he knew that it would be useless to know right now.

"I need to get stronger... only then will the knowledge be valuable to me...", he murmured slowly to himself.

Just as Jay was preparing himself to exit the dungeon, Sebas suddenly said, "My liege, will please complete the ownership process?"

"Huh? Ownership process? What's that?"

Sebas nodded his head and said, "Somce we have become your slaves master, now this dungeon belongs to you."

"..."

"So in order to actually make this dungeon's will acknowledge you, you need to form a pact with it and complete the ownership ritual."

Jay was confused with the complex words that Sebas was saying.

"Wait... just give me a summary of what you said..."

Sebas stares at Jay for a second and said in simple words, "To become the owner of this dungeon and make it your private property, you need to sign a contract my liege."

"Ohhhh!!!!", he finally understood what Sebas wanted to say but was puzzled at the same time as this was the first time he has heard something about this.

So he immeditely asked, "Then tell me, how to form the pact?"

"Follow me my liege...", immeditely after Sebas said that, he guided Jay towards another chamber that was even further interior to the boss's area.

"Woah, I never knew that secret chambers like this existed..."

It was indeed a secret chamber since no one till now had even discovered such a place in any dungeon.

Sebas now walked forward towards a crystal orb that was placed in front just ahead and asked Jay to come close to it.

Jay while carrying the wolf walked near the dungeon and stared at the crystal on which he was able to see his own reflection clearly.

"My liege, you need to pour a drop of your blood on it and then place your palm on the orb."

Jay immeditely did what Sebas said without hesitating even for a moment.

'ZSDDDD'

The crystal orb suddenly began to sparkle and glow with bright light. Then suddenly it turned black and a symbol appeared on it.

"Huh? Doesn't this look like a dragon's head?", it was indeed like that if a dragon head and that too similar to thatvif the great dragon AKALUMAN.

He was astonished after seeing that when suddenly a message popped up from the system.

'DING DONG'

__________

[CONGRATULATION]

- You have successfully become the owner of a dungeon.

- Nee Mission will be generated after exiting the dungeon.

- The dragons are admiring your work.

- you have grabbed the attention of other [MAIN] dungeons.

- You will be given 500 fame points.

- 100 stat points have been rewarded.

- System update will be started after exiting the dungeon.

__________

"Woah... just woah!!! What's with this message!!?"

He was completely taken by surprise. He had no words for it.

"Dragons are admiring my work? Don't tell me that I am being spied by other dragons!!?", he was staring at the message like a fool and thinking about these things.

He was extremely excited to use the stat points as soon as he could.

"Awesome...", after checking through everything he decided to exit the dungeon finally.

"Hmm, it's time for me to go."

All this time he had been holding the pup in his hand since he wanted to raise it as a pet.

Also he couldn't leave such a small pup in the verge of death.

"Okay Sebas, I would be heading back right now."

"Yes my liege."

"ya, don't forget to do what I told!"

Sebas replies instantly saying, "I won't my liege."

Jay was about to leave the dungeon when suddenly he got a doubt which he asked himself, "What will happen to the dungeon now?"

Sebas thought that Jay was asking him so he immeditely answered, "Master, of the owner doesn't store the dungeons, they will vanish in due time..."

"V-vanish!!? What do you mean?", Jay was shocked when he heard Sebas saying this.

"My liege, you have to select a spot for the dungeon too. It can be anywhere... but there has to be a new spot. If there isn't any new selected spot, the dungeon will disappear within 3 days..."

Jay immeditely asked, "Then what about you all?"

"My liege... we too will be disappeared with the dungeon."

"..."

Jay was stunned by listening Sebas say that so calmly. He didn't even stop jay to tell about this earlier.

"Why didn't you tell me this earlier? What if I had left without asking this? Then you would have disappeared right!!?"

Sebas smiled a bit and said, "My liege, we are just pawns in the game that you will play. Either we disappeared now or later... it would be the same..."

Sebas's expression clearly said that he had given up on trusting anyone. He didn't even think about surviving.

"Don't say like that... I don't toss my subjects just like that! Trust in me... I am your king after all."

Sebas was left staring at Jay while being completely shocked by his words.

"M-my liege...?", he didn't have any other words to say because this was the first time he saw any king saying such kind words to his subjects.

"Okay then, see you later...", immeditely after saying that he exited the dungeon.

"We will be waiting for you... OUR liege."

"..."
