    <span style="font-weight:400">"Let''s head down to the boss now." Keith crunched his knuckles. Now that they had defeated all the bison and snakes, it was time to let loose on the floor boss. This was a great warm-up for everyone.


    <span style="font-weight:400">A warm-up. This was what he considered it. The others just woke up and needed something to rile them up. Battling the bison and snakes did it.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Let''s go for that boss!" Everyone was prepared for a battle. But there was one person who acted differently.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What''s the matter, Herrick?" Gabriel turned to the beastman.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I smell something off."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hmm?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"There''s this weird smelling from over there." Herrick started to sniff left and right. As he walked, Keith and the others followed after. They had then arrived at a wall. He began to touch it around before,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Found it!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith walked over to the wall and tapped on it. Eh? It''s hollow. There was a nk space inside; it wasn''t solid. He nced at Herrick, and the two knew what to do.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Bamm! The two mmed their fist, shattering the wall. What Herrick found was a cave.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What the? There''s a cave here?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Keith, is there supposed to be there?" Gabriel questioned.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith frowned, "This is an unexplored section."


    <span style="font-weight:400">An unexplored section. Like the name suggested, it meant no adventurer had ever ventured.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Let''s head in!" Herrick and Melor were going to step in. But the two were grabbed by Scarlet and Alfia,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hold your horses." "Do you two really want to die?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Why not?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Because we don''t know what kind of monster will be there." For all they know, the monster could be a deadly beast. It was unpredictable.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"How should we proceed?" Keith was the leader of the group. He would make the judgment on what they would do next.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"We''re going in." Keith decided.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You sure?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm." Keith nodded, "We can handle it. Worst case, I can shoot a grand magic point-nk at it." Lightning trident should be able to burst them down.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I see." Hearing that made the others calm down.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"But we must be more careful about what''sing at us. Got it. Don''t go running around." No one could forget about caution.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Understood." His words made them jump up and down. Excitement. Unexplored dungeons were rare. That meant they would be going there now.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Sarah, be prepared to cast healing magic when you can."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Yes."


    <span style="font-weight:400">Like so, everyone entered the cave. As the group did, Gabriel and Arlo held up magicmps. As they walked, they noticed something odd.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"There''s a lot of vines." Vines were riddled around the cave. Instead, there was more of that than stone showing.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Make sure not to get near those vines." Keith didn''t know why, but they should have been wary of them.


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Understood."


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"!" Leona looked around.


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Is there something wrong?" Gabriel caught her look.


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Something is moving."


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"!" Keith''s vignce shot up.


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Be prepared for battle."


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Watch it!" Krystal was the first to move as she sliced a vine.


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Thanks." Faelyn didn''t see ite from her blind spot.


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Cut the vines, now!" Keith swung his sword while Gabriel and the others did the same. But as they did,


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Woah!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What is that?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">Venus flytrap?


    <span style="font-weight:400">In front of them was a giant nt. Its heads were simr to venus fly traps.


    <span style="font-weight:400">


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Get behind me!" Keith raised his shield. That was the quick moment as the heads bit at it! Faelyn fired some earth bullets. And that caused the vines to back off.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"...It melted my shield," Keith muttered as he stared at the font. What he spotted was that his shield melted at the top. But that was not the end,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Kya!" "No!" Sarah and Alfia were caught by the vines. Gabriel tried to swipe at it but was toote. And the heads weren''t done as they fired something at them!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Alfia! Sarah!" Keith quickly jumped at the vines and promptly sliced it in two!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Leona, watch over them!" "Understood." Leona quickly went to their side.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"We''re going to need to cut down the heads." The heads were the source of the problem.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Herrick, Melor, Krystal, and Gabriel. One head each! Carolyn and Scarlet, fire at them! The rest set up a defensive field!" Keith shouted. They needed to change some things.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I will start off first!" Keith dashed at the fly trap. That aggroed the heads as they pounced! The heads continued to attack him from all sides. Thank goodness I wore that helmet! Each ched onto his limbs, trying to rip him to shreds!


    <span style="font-weight:400">That was why Keith quickly pulled back, straightening the head. Four shadows instantly pounced; all of them were above the head. That wasn''t the only thing as vines dashed to take them out!


    <span style="font-weight:400">However, starlight and shadows sted those vines!


    <span style="font-weight:400">Shing! The heads were sliced down.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Dear lord, that was so close!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Keith, are you okay?!" Keith was still covered by the head. Even after cutting it, those things continued totch onto his armor!


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith quickly ripped the heads off, "I''m good. But it was too hot!" It slightly melted the armor. However, that didn''t stop him from feeling the heat!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"How are you-" "Do not look over here!" Alfia and Sarah shouted. But it was toote. Keith understood why they shouted; their clothes melted.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Scarlet jumped at Keith, but he dodged, "Take this." He tossed them some cloth, "Use this."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What? You think I''m going to gawk at them like that?" Keith shook his head, "You guys get changed. Girls, make a shield for them."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Understood."
