Chapter 169: High Level Dungeon (Part 6)

"What? Are you sure?" Frowned Kelsey warily."Yes, there’s no doubt about it," The Detector nodded with a grimace.

"What should we do? If there are Critical Levels on this floor, it could mean a Calamity Level Threat in the Boss Room, and that’s beyond our capabilities," Chimed in Keira.

"Let’s keep going for now, we can handle two Criticals. But if the Dungeon Boss is a Calamity Level Monster, we’ll have to retreat. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves, we’ll deal with the Monsters on this floor first and then reassess," Decided Kelsey, before adding," Ariella, Kai, you two handle one of the Monsters, Keira and I will deal with the other."

"Got it," Aria and I nodded in unison.

"And Damien, we’ll need some Enchantments from you, so get ready," She continued, before glancing at the Ice Mage, "You back up Ariella and Kai, no need to back me up since I’ll have Keira covering me."

"Sure, leave it to me," Responded the Ice Mage with a thumbs up, before we continued heading forward.

Critical Levels, huh?

That likely means two Greater Demons are lying in wait for us, not too far ahead.

I exchanged a glance with Aria, who looked a bit tense, a determined look on her face. We nearly died the last time we encountered a Greater Demon, I can’t help but feel a bit nervous myself.

But I’m a hell of lot stronger than I was back then, she is too. And between the two of us, we should be able to take down a Greater Demon at our current levels.

"Not much further, less than twenty-five meters," The Detector informed us, as we steadily drew closer to the Monsters.

They soon came into sight, my body tensing slightly. Those Auras, and the fact that they’ve both got two horns...no doubt about it, they’re Greater Demons, a female and a male.

The female Demon had long, wavy dark pink hair, with light red eyes, and a slender, alluring figure with curves in all the right places.

And of course, she had the scaly red skin, black wings, tail, horns and the whites of her eyes were black, like all Demons.

As for the male Demon, he was tall and muscular, with spiked up dark red hair, a thick, messy chin beard and golden eyes.

Shit, this is the first time I’ve come across anything with a Power Level of over a million, and the other one isn’t too far behind either.

If nothing else, they’re a lot more powerful that the Greater Demon I fought before.

"Well, now, look what we have here. So many humans, and the males are quite striking...," Smirked the female Demon, licking her lips as she eyed us with an unsettling gleam in her eyes.

"I do not understand your fascination with these lowly creatures," Sighed the male Demon, glaring at us in disgust.

They’re showing no urgency, they’re taking us lightly...but their confidence isn’t entirely baseless, they’re seriously powerful. I can’t afford to be secretive here, these two are dangerous...

"The female one seems to have some kind of hypnotic or charming ability, likely in the form of a mist. And the male seems to have an ability that can cage or trap targets, he’s the stronger of the two but he’s also slower," I spoke up, as I drew out my blade.

"How do you-...? No, thank you...that’s useful to know. Keira, you and I will take on the male! Ariella, Kai, the other one’s all yours," Responded Kelsey, as she swung her hammer across.

"What? That male human, how-...hm? No, it can’t be...," Muttered the male Demon in disbelief, as his gaze fell onto my blade.

"The feel of the Mana around that blade...impossible, is that a Personalis Arma? And what an interesting Aura he possesses...allow me to take him on.

It seems he and the female human with the red hair want to fight me, and the other two females with decent Auras intend to fight you.

We can ignore the rest. Make sure they don’t interrupt us," Smirked the female, before the two of them shot towards us.

Keira stepped up a bit closer towards Kelsey as Aria and I shot towards the female Demon, before the male Demon chanted as they closed in...

"Very well. [Demonic Art: Malignant Cage]."

A burst of black energy erupted around him, spreading out across the area before we could react and rapidly taking shape, forming two massive cages.

Aria and I were trapped in one with the female Demon, while Keira and Kelsey were in the other cage of dark energy, with the male Demon.

"Damien, quick!" Called out Kelsey as she glanced back at him, he and the rest of the party outside the cages.

He raised his staff, which consisted of a curved, jet-black handle, and a glowing pink Mana Orb at the end of it, the same color as his Aura.

"Right...[High Reinforce], [High Accel], [High Fortif-...]...hm? Uh...it’s not working."

"This is no time to mess around, you-...!" Began Keira furiously.

"It is no use. Your allies cannot help you in here. These cages will not fade until I take them down or die. Nothing may leave the cage, and nothing may enter, including Magic," The male Demon informed them, as he began to charge up swirling masses of dark energy in his hands.

"It’s true, which means we can battle without any interruptions," Smirked the female Demon, before adding as she glanced at me, "Mm, your Mana is so unusual, your essence must be quite delectable."

"Not sure what that means, but you’ll die before you get to have a taste," I responded, as I cracked my neck.

"By essence, I mean your semen. When male humans ejaculate, their semen is rich with concentrated Mana...once I extract and consume it, I shall give you a quick and painless death.

You will inevitably die, but I assure you, it’ll be a most pleasurable death," She chuckled with a lick of her lips.

"Wha-...?!" Blurted out Aria, her expression equal parts stunned and flustered.

Yeah, uh, what she said.

"I have no real interest in female humans. So, I shall kill you first...now, [Demonic Art: Bewitching Mist]."
