The 15th.2

What in the world is happening!?

First we were attacked by Orcs and now I'm facing a skeleton wearing a suit fit for a noble!

"Klaa~ klak kak klak.... Klack! Klak klakak kak Klak!(*Sigh* I had high hopes when I saw you young man.... However! Fret not! as I Sol Van Heim is generous enough to give you a second chance!!)" Sol.

"Abade!" Jugo.

Mr.Jugo then stands beside me and ready to fight the skeleton infront of me with his Bronze punching Gloves. Having Mr.Jugo helping me I feel relieved since I can't exactly fight right now, My longsword just broke anyway.

"What the hell is a Skeleton doing on the 14th floor!? I thought this place is supposed to be filled by only goblins and orcs!" Jugo.

"I don't know but lets just kill it and get this over with" Abade.

"Alright" Jugo.

"Kakak, Kak klack klack.... Kak klakak(I see, So you have chosen.... Test subject)" Sol.

The skeleton then rustles his pouch on its waist and pulls out a black vial. In instinct Jugo charges at him with both of his fist ready to smash its skull to bits. It throws the Black vial to the ground and black smoke engulfs the whole area. Just before it disappears into the smoke the skeleton takes of its tophat and gives us a bow and Green flames suddenly bursts out of its eye sockets.

"Shit! I can't see anything" Jugo.

The smoke then clears out and the skeleton was nowhere to be seen, what the fuck was that just now?

"It... Disappeared" Abade.

"Hey look! The Orcs are all gone!" Jugo.

"Wait what?" Abade.

I look to where the horde of orcs were to see no orcs whatsoever, not a single one. However there were pools of blood and drag stains made of blood on where they were.

Wait, where are the others!?

I look around the cavern to see that there isn't anyone whatsoever except for Mr.Jugo, did they left us?

"Oi come on, we gotta catch up to the others" Jugo.

"R-right, but where are they" Abade.

"They all went back to the stairs" Jugo.

"Alright then lets g-"

When I try to walk I feel my broken arm suddenly getting pushed down by my armor giving severe pain that I have never thought I'd ever feel my entire life.

"You ok?" Jugo.

"Y-yeah, Just broke my arm..." Abade.

"That is not ok you idiot" Jugo.

°°°°

"Haaa... haaa.... Is everyone alright?" Silvaly.

"Silvaly! We got 7 people injured! And 2 missing" Adventurer.

"We need to find them! Everyone here with the scout class go and search the area and make sure not to get spotted by those pigs!" Silvaly.

Shit, Are those orcs the cause of why the increase of numbers on Adventurers not coming back?

Its possible since those things are even able to repel Heritos and his party easily just now, This place really is the strongest Labryinth in Enriya.

"Captain! We spotted Wendigoes coming straight here" Adventurer Scout.

First Orcs now Wendigoes!? Calm down Silvaly.... Calm down... Wendigoes are way stronger than those pigs but I guess we can avoid fighting them.

"Mages, Cast Deafening Silence. Although wendigoes are blind they have a keen sense of hearing so if we they can't hear where we are then we won't need to fight them" Silvaly.

Why are there wendigoes in the 14th floor to begin with anyways?

"I disagree, why can't we just burn them with [Fire Magic]?" Erica.

"You id- Look around! Can't you see that more than half us are wounded!? We even lost 2 party members, We can't fight  anything in this situation!" Silvaly.

"I-i see... You have a point..." Erica.

Just after I was done nagging at Erica I hear damp footsteps coming from the dark cavern hallway where we just escaped from, shit they're here!

"Mages, Cast them now" Erica.

From head to toe everyone was then covered by a transparent field. The room leading to the stairs where we are then turned silent as every single sound we make were silenced completely. With this we all might just manage to be able to escape out of here alive.

From the shadows of the dark hallway corpse white slender hands begins go reveal themselves out into the light of the torches we're holding.

Alright, since they can't hear us now's time to escape.

I wave my hand to the others to signal them to climb up the stairs. I'm nit going to die, not here not no-

"GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH" Silvaly.

°°°°

When Silvaly signaled us to go up the stairs we quickly all run up the stairs. It was at this moment I was finally relieved that actually going to get out of this dirty, disgusting and smelly Labryinth.

However.... I was wrong.

As I was quickly running up the stairs a sudden quick pale blur passes from my left and it was headed straight for Silvaly.

"GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!" Silvaly

Infront of me I saw a Wendigo pierce Silvaly in the gut from behind using both of its hands with its slender fingers and long dirty nails. It then rips Silvaly apart into 2 erupting a fountain of blood sprayed out of his body everywhere.

H-how d-did it?

I then begin to hear screams coming from behind me and I know that when I look back I will be even more scarred for life. I gather up the courage and selfishly I left all of them behind to die, my party members, my companions, my friends....

With chills crawling up my spine I kept going, I run and run continuously up the stairs for my life, right now my face's expression is probably similar to that of a goblin begging for its life. Seconds later I then see light shining infront of me.

I'm almost there! I'm almost free!!!

Suddenly something touched the back of my right shoulder and soon after I see an arm with purple robes flying infront of me followed by a trail of splatter blood coming out of it, that's my arm.

Unimaginable pain circulates instantly throughout my body making me want to throw up blood. Normally any person after getting their arm torn off would scream in pain but I couldn't.

As my torn arm hit the ground so did I making me roll down the stairs with my bloody wounded right shoulder also hitting the stairs adding more pain to injury.

2 second later I stopped after hitting the ground. It was at this moment that confusion amd agony filled my mind.

W-why why did I only fall for only 2 seconds?

I look to the stairs to only see my arm only slightly visible on the stairs not far up.

I only climbed 5 steps.... Haha..ha haha this is a joke right?

All of that, all of that talk of me finally going to be able to escape and that light infront of me was all just in my head?

Instead of yelling a loud scream for help like any normal sane person would I laughed, I laughed hysterically as if I was mad. I wasted 13 years of my life studying the ways and rules of magic in order to achieve a dream of becoming an S-Rank Adventurer with a party full of mages only to have all of it ruined by me dying right here.

My vision then became blurry and all I can see was darkness seeping into my eyes.

Guess I'll die...

°°°°

I walk as quickly as I can with Mr.Jugo walking infront of me ready to face off agaisnt anything thrown his way. Haaa.... Thank god Mr.Jugo actually searched for me, wait speaking of which doesn't that mean my own sister just left me!?

"Mr.Jugo, where's Kana?" Abade.

"Don't worry kid, your sis is safe with the other Adventurers" Jugo.

Oh well, at least she's safe. Though now that I think about it I kinda hope that she won't make too much of a ruckus while I'm not there.

Hm?

I then smell blood and not just blood but also something disgusting like that of a pig's insides. Instantly a thought of everyone being killed appears in my head making me panic a little. No, its probably just the carcass of an orc or a....

The smell then instantly got even more stronger making me worry even more. I then ask Mr.Jugo if he can just carry me but he didn't answer.

"Dear Diabolos..." Jugo.

"What is it? What is-"

I look past Mr.Jugo to find a mountain of burned Goblin corpses with all of them having their heads all decapitated from their body, hell there's even Hobgoblin stacked in there.

"I swear if were supposed to fight something that killed all of these by cleanly decapitating all of their heads I'm reporting the guild to the city's noble" Jugo.

So this is where the smell was coming from, Thank fucking god I was wrong( ≧Д≦). But still Mr.Jugo's right, there's no way we can fight something that can do this.

Me finally having the burden of worry lift off of me I joyfully continue to walk to where the others were.

***

Infront of me was chaos. Human bodies are being feasted by monsters right infront of my eyes while blood sprays out from their bodies like a fountain. The Wendigoes that toss and juggles them gave me the feeling of fear and despair with each passing second.

"Kaak kaak Klak! Kaka kalak~ka~kaaa! (HAHAHA!! We meet again young~man!)" Sol.

Sounds of bones hitting each other is suddenly heard from behind them. All of the Wendigoes then stop at what they were doing and prostrate themselves while making way for that being to come near me.

The skeleton from last time then walks slow and elegantly straight at me while holding Mr.Jugo's head on its hand whilst still having its spine attached to it.

"W-w-hat the hell are you!?" Abade.

"Kaa? Klak kaak? (Hm? I believe I had already introduce myself did I not)"

"Ka klaaak! Kaka klaaa!...Kaka klak kalak klak klak, kak klak?(Ah, It matters not! Because since now that you're here!..... You can finally achieve the option you chose my little test subject, Williams if you may?)" Sol.

Something hit the back of my head and I blacked out.
