Chapter 102: Prepare For Trouble
Chapter 102: Prepare For Trouble
" Hey, is it here?"
" Yup, I could detect the signature of my spirit beast down there."
??
Ray and Sieg arrived at the entrance of a ruin outside the maple-leaf city. Since the era of awakening, ruins appear alongside spirit beasts in this world.
For those who could conquer the ruins, wealth, skill, or a unique spirit beast awaits them. So normally, a ruin was strictly controlled by the Daoist association.
For the protagonist party to find an unnamed ruin, Ray could say they are worthy of their title.
" Then, what are we wasting time for? Let\'s go inside and kick his ass."
" *Sigh* Calm down a bit. We need to make sure we have a solid plan."
Ray and Sieg then continued to discuss their plans inside. Sieg was responsible for harassing the two bastards, while Ray will be the one to ensure Elsa\'s safety.
During that time, Sieg himself has got to know that Elsa wasn\'t an accomplice of those corrupted guys. It was clear to him that Adrian had played a part in stopping Elsa from interfering with them. Therefore, as a gentleman knight, Sieg wanted to ensure that Elsa was safe when they took care of Adrian and George.
After they finished discussing their plans, Ray then passed a few disguising outfits to Sieg. He was sure that George and Adrian would discover them anyway, but using a disguise made their operation seem cooler.
The two put up their disguise suits and proceeded to went into inside the ruin.
--- Inside the ruin ----
" Fairy Dragon Roar!"
The fairy dragon behind Elsa gathered energy on its mouth and released it at the wild spirit beast inside the ruin. She was angry about George and Adrian\'s act in the guild building, so she decided to let it out on the ruin.
" Adrian, it has been a while, and she hadn\'t stop sulking. Should we apologize to her?"
" Don\'t be silly, George. If we were to do what you said, I\'m pretty sure that she would ask us to get that bastard out from jail and apologize to him. It\'s better to let her vent her anger on the spirit beasts. After we get the rewards of the ruin, her mood should be better, and soon she would forget about that guy."
George, Elsa, and Adrian were in the midst of exploring the ruin. Along the way, Elsa had expressed her dissatisfaction with how the two were handling the situation back on the guild. But it seems the two acted like a fool and ignore her tantrum.
Time soon passed with the party of 3 continued to explore the ruin, and eventually, they reached the boss room.
" Adrian, are you sure that just the three of us are enough to defeat the boss?"
" Trust me, George. Either way, we could just take a peek. If we found the boss was too hard to handle, we will back down and make a report to the guild. Discovering a new ruin should give us a pretty big reward, right?"
Looking at the two, Elsa wanted to say some words to make sure that they are not overconfident with themself when handling the boss. But just when they were about to open the boss room.
*BOOM!!*
A blaze of fire suddenly appeared ahead of them, and Three figures revealed themself.
"Prepare for trouble, Meow"
"And make it double."
"To protect the world from devastation!"
"To unite all peoples within our nation!"
"To denounce the evils of truth and love!"
"To extend our reach to the stars above!"
Two persons in masks and a talking cat appeared and blocked their way from the boss room.
" Psst, Ray, do we really need to do this?"
" What are you talking Mr. honorary knight? Don\'t you see they are distracted because of our actions? It\'s now or never!"
Obviously, the ones who just appeared were Ray, Schwarz, and Sieg. Looking at the distracted George and Adrian, they didn\'t waste their chances, and Ray pulled Elsa into the boss room.
" Adios, dumbass."
After Ray entered the boss room, the big door closed, and Adrian and George were stuck outside without the capability to enter the room.
It was the rule of the ruin. When a party enters the boss room, the party needs to either completely died, solve the boss trial, or leave the boss room of their own volition before another party could get in.
Geroge was dumbstruck at the progression of the event. He cursed Ray madly, but he knew it was all useless. He could only hope that Elsa could escape from the palm of that bastard, or they were strong enough to handle the boss.
" Hey, don\'t you guys forget about me here. Corrupted guys like you only deserved to be placed in hell."
Sieg smiled and walked closer to Adrian and George, and from behind him, a flame griffin appeared out of a portal.
" How about a sneak peek of hell before you guys going into it in the future?"
Sieg instructed the Flame griffin to attack Adrian and George. However, things wasn\'t as simple as that.
George summoned his Green bison, and Adrian also didn\'t want to lose and called out his own spirit beast.
" Come out, Wukong."
Adrian\'s spirit beast was one of the strongest types of spirit beasts around. Originated from one of the most popular Chinese mythology, wukong is an underling of the Sun Wukong which followed the monk Tang Sanzang in their journey to the west.
As the underling of the Great Monkey King, wukong was capable of many magic arts like transformation, multiplying, etc. And even the one trick that he applied to restrict Elsa was one of wukong\'s abilities.
Wukong has the appearance of a big monkey shrouded in iron armor. His eyes were flaming red, and he holds an iron staff in his hand.
" I\'ll let you know the consequences of angering me. Go Wukong, kill that guy for me."
Soon, the battle between Sieg, Adrian, and George began, with George and Adrian working together to pit Sieg.
