Chapter 43 [Bonus ] 43: Manticore's First Dungeon [2]
"Hey, Raven... that portal looks strange."
"Hmmm? Strange?"
"Yeah, why does it just swirl around all day?"
"Not sure..."
The pair stepped forward, the same black monolith that Raven first entered, the place of his new life's beginning.
He was a little scared of what they might find, the strange murals, the tragic past and the horrific truth he learned, no matter what. Raven continually swore to save Eve when he met her again, stopping Lilith from becoming like her previous self.
Raven watched the familiar blue portal swirling with a black line, almost hypnotising as he went to pull out his axe, only to realise it was destroyed!
"Fuck..."
'So much happened I forgot to visit a damn blacksmith...'
"What's the matter? You sound like some kind of drug dealing gangster with that fierce look and big body when you say fuck!"
"And you sound like a street worker."
"Hmph!"
"Shall we enter? Sorry, I forgot my axe so it might be annoying; we were too excited and forgot weapons..."
Bang!
Suddenly a loud blast filled the area, as a strange black energy crackled from the palm of Lilith's hand, while a moment later, she vanished and appeared on the wall above, a pink mist replacing her body.
"I have these. Will it help?" She said with a teasing look as she smiled.
Raven was surprised; how the hell did she cast that strange spell...
It was like two black spikes penetrated the wall like crossed blades, causing it to explode, and the technique she used when escaping his harassment in the bathroom was so smooth that he could barely feel the vibration from her footsteps.
That's with enhanced senses!
'This girl... Is she a genius!?'
·ƈθm He couldn't see her current [Status] due to her not entering the dungeon or visiting the guild, thankfully, the bracelet for a sub-member or monster was slightly different, and Emily gave him one during their date.
'It's a good thing I asked her for one... Let's send a message before we enter.'
- Emily <3
Morning beautiful, I hope you have a great day at work.
I'm about to take Lilith into the [Wailing Caverns].
It might take a while; I forgot my damn axe; please send me some good blacksmith addresses. If you want, meet me at the one you choose, I'll message you after we are done.
I want you to meet Lilith and hope you can get along; she's the girl I spoke about before... Don't get too jealous, okay?
xx

"Who are you texting?"
"My lover."
"Eh!? But I'm right here?"
"When were you anything but a leech? Don't even suck me off..."
"Tonight...?"
"I'm just kidding; come on, let's go. Today you will meet her."
"Mmm... okay...."
Raven looked at her face, seeing how she looked glum, gently stroking her soft white hair; the fluffy flicks were silky as they slid along his almond fingers. He noticed her head moving to rub against him; her eyes looked sad, so he jokingly whispered something.
"It's alright; she's okay with me having a harem."
He jumped into the blue portal after his deep voice sounded, unable to see the smile and glowing face that showed for a moment, his body vanishing as her cute voice echoed.
"Idiot! Who wants to join your harem!"
-
Lilith felt her body become strange when she jumped into the portal. Strange purple and silvery white flashes blinded her eyes, almost vomited from disorientation.
Her mind and thoughts jumbled, the swirling vortex making her feel squeamish; before she fell from the sky inside a dark dungeon, her body was caught by muscular and rugged forearms.
Suddenly her heart began throbbing, her breathing growing steady after a moment inside his embrace; his powerful chest was reassuring while Lilith observed the surrounding area, a complex and dull grey rocky wall, crumbling as the sound of distant water dropped, a flowing river maybe?
"Are you alright, Lilith?" Raven asked her with a soft voice, deep and magnetic but nothing like outside; it made her chest swell with joy, but her face remained pouting and a little cold, unable to deal with this strange fluttering he caused her.
"Of course..." She snorted.
'I'm fine thanks to you... but I can't stop my chest from racing... why do you smell so nice?'
"Can you see? I thought you might be able to, but let me know if you can't. I'll kill everything in here for you if so!"
'Why are you so nice suddenly... bully me like always... pinch my tits... slap my ass. This Raven will make me addicted to more than your scent and taste...!'
Raven carried her body; she felt his giant steps covering more ground, but not rushing like he wanted to help adjust her to the dungeon's dark light.
Lilith stayed sitting on his forearm, like a princess, before she felt him moving, her eyes like a child on her father's shoulder, looking around the cavern they fell into, dirty floors, grey walls and only two directions.
'Hmmm, the left side is blocked...'
"Oh. It's the same as when I came; the left side is blocked and should be the same as we proceed."
Despite this being her first dungeon, Lilith felt strange as she was carried, and his right arm was always hovering near her body as if to block anything that might target her.
'Raven... I can fight... let me show you....'
Wooooh!
The caverns began to howl, just like when Raven first entered. Her floppy ears started to sway as the strange sound was repeated on the 5-6 second loop after waiting.
"Ah, is this why it's called Wailing Caverns?"
Crunch!
Lilith enjoyed the sound of rocks being crushed under his vast frame; she wanted Raven beside her, feeling safe and secure as they moved along a dark tunnel.
His feet were getting messy with mud and dirt, but never complaining, he stayed silent and watched the front.
Her eyes peered around the murky cave; it surprised her how beautiful those blue stones were, littered around the walls like unique lights, the same colour as Raven's eyes; that gentle neon blue glow filled 60% of the cave as it soothed Lilith.
'It's like he's always watching me... that colour fills me with calm and joy... But the rest is so dark... like an empty void... like my world before he entered it...'
She tilted her head to the right, a small passage which seemed to be around 5 metres long, splitting into a dual choice of left or right. Then to her left was a small but dark path, but her purple eyes penetrated the darkness as they shone brightly, only a filthy wall.
To the north, there was a grimy black wall covered with darkness, and they just came from the small starting point in the South.
"Let's take a moment, properly prepare," Raven said; he seemed to stop briefly before he chuckled. "A little Deja vu of my first journey here..."
"What do I prepare?" Lilith asked, no longer playing around as she was too intoxicated by the time with him, the thick scent of his body, and the gentle and melodic voice.
She was his captive.
Lilith looked down from his forearm before he gently let her down; it seemed her free ride ended as her light body of 62kg landed; her height was now just over 6ft as she looked towards him with eager eyes, her body filled with a strange sense of power.
"Can you say the word [Status] for me?"
Her eyes widened in awe; a large blue screen hovered over his left arm. When he said those words, she could see a picture of the naked Raven, and even his cock was accurate! She suddenly began to feel excited; when left alone the other night, she didn't just watch videos and touch herself.
Lilith found an old game of his and began to enjoy playing, the screen suddenly made it feel more exciting, and like a game, there was even a level system.
A burst of anticipation filled her body; the memories of her dull and miserable life passed from family to family due to her strange tattoo and them worrying she would seduce their husbands or sons when she grew up.
'Raven accepted me...'
'Raven can accept who I am...'
'He will let me stay with him...'
'Let's become strong, so he doesn't leave me behind...'
'So strong he has to love me most...'
"Status"
With a shaking voice, her eyes glowed brighter as her thoughts became more obsessive and focused towards Raven, her marking also burning but now covered by the dress he forced her to wear.
Its entire pattern was now pink and purple mixed; all the black was gone as it seemed to sink deep into her flesh, leaving a permanent engravement on her insides.
Her womb was now marked with the same strange tribal markings, but "Alistair Granbell" was written in a weird demonic font and language in the centre.
'Now I am only yours... I can only be yours...'
Lilith lied last night when he asked her if she remembered anything of her dream. She lied because the memories and things her past self, that other [Lilith] did, made her terrified he would hate her, but it also taught her many things.
'Like those spells... and abilities... I'm sorry that I was a bad girl Raven... I will never lie to you again... Nor let any woman who comes near you do the same!'
'I will prove I love you the most... my entire body is only yours, and now this feeling, the burning in my womb... It's proof and won't ever fade. Now I cannot go against you, or make the same mistake as that bitch who made you cry!'
'You wait...'
