New Earth- The Dungeon Of Madness 184 The Light At The End Of The Tunnel

'What a pity... From the way she is walking, the chief hasn't been very gentle to her.'

Along her way, the barbarians gave her weird looks but not once did they try to help her or stop her. However, the Flame Belle was well aware that she was being closely monitored. It felt like she was in prison. The barbarians did not want to interact with her but they also did not want her to cause any form of trouble.

'How did things end up like this... The life at a dungeon is meant to be peaceful. It is where we are supposed to grow in power. I should not have wasted my chances at changing masters...'

Like any other Boss Monsters, the Flame Belle was given a few opportunities to break the link between them and a dungeon. Harriet was given three chances while the Flame Belle only got two. They could be used for various reasons but once activated, they would never be able to become the monsters of that dungeon again.

She used her first chance on her first dungeon. The dungeon master there was kind and respectful. Unfortunately, the dungeon she was summoned to was an aquatic one. The dungeon master unlocked her by using a Monster Lottery Ticket; in normal circ.u.mstances, he would have never willingly unlocked the Flame Belle, knowing that the environment was not at all suited for her.

The dungeon master created a special floor for her; an underground volcanic cavern where she could display her abilities. However, the cavern was still underwater which was rather uncomfortable for her and the Flame Sisters. Furthermore, the dungeon's visitors consisted mainly of mermen. They were a variant of humans who lived underwater; their body had perfectly adapted to their environment. This also meant that they were not comfortable in leaving the comfort of the sea. The Flame Belle's floor remained deserted most of the time.

Seeing the mediocre performance of her floor and adding to the fact that she herself was not very comfortable with the environment, she decided to break her link with the dungeon after discussing with the dungeon master. The latter did not try to hold her back; he knew it would be pointless for her to remain at his dungeon.

The Flame Belle was freed and could return to her home but soon, another dungeon master summoned her. This time, the dungeon master purposely chose her. The dungeon was quite diverse and there were rooms for her. The dungeon master was very kind and welcoming. The problem was the other monsters.

They did not like the fact that another Boss Monster was summoned. In that dungeon, the monsters actively competed with each other, trying to gain the favor of the dungeon master. This resulted in the different species putting a lot of pressure on the Flame Belle. They wanted her to stay at the bottom of the pyramid; the monsters did not want another compet.i.tor for the limited resources.

The Flame Belle ignored the pushy monsters. She persevered and tried to make a place for the Flame Sisters in the dungeon. However, the monsters simply would not allow her to. Soon, they pushed her over the edge. Seeing that the dungeon master was simply watching from the sideline, the Flame Belle decided to leave the dungeon.

She left without a word to the relief of the monsters. As for the dungeon master, he simply shook his head and thought that it was a pity. He created this ultrcompet.i.tive environment to push his monsters and if the Flame Belle could not endure the stress, she would not be able to unleash her true potential.

The Flame Belle once again returned home. She knew she had lost her two chances. She prayed to be summoned to a dungeon adapted to her. She hoped that the dungeon would be relatively new so that she would not have to fight with the other monsters. Her prayers were answered.

A few years pa.s.sed before she was once again summoned. The new generation of dungeon masters appeared and to her delight, she was being summoned to a new dungeon that specialized in Fire-type monsters.

Unfortunately, she never expected that the first thing she would experience was to be pinned down on the floor and forcefully raped by Dorcas.

Out of the three dungeons she went to, this one was without a doubt the worst. She lost everything; her virginity and her dignity. The Flames Sisters suffered the same fate; they were not even treated as monsters anymore. Unfortunately, the Flame Belle had already used the two chances to break her link with the dungeon core.

Because of the link, she was unable to take any actions to harm the dungeon masters or the dungeon core. With the barbarians threatening to destroy the dungeon core, she was forced to obey. She never expected that by wis.h.i.+ng for a younger and inexperienced dungeon, she would end up in one that was so weak that it had already been conquered.

'I should not have left the previous dungeon; life was hard but it was still rewarding. I should not have searched endlessly for a better dungeon. That will teach me to think that gra.s.s is greener in the other dungeons.'

The Flame Belle arrived at the dungeon's new entrance. Since it has been conquered, Dorcas forced Stargaze to create a new path that connected the dungeon to the Swift Gazelle Tribe's village, making it easier for them to access the dungeon.

The dungeon had already turned into the barbarians' lair. It was where they spent most of the day; they only returned to their village at night to sleep, allowing their counter to refresh so that they would continue to generate DP.

The dungeon provided them with a more comfortable environment; it was warm and comfortable. With the use of Scents, the dungeon became an ideal training area for the barbarians. They could train at their leisure using equipment and facilities summoned by the dungeon.

There were about two hundred Flame Sisters in the dungeon; they were the only monsters still alive. They acted as servants, a.s.sisting the barbarians in their training. Quite a few Flame Sisters had already committed suicide but it did not matter to the barbarians; they just needed to summon more to replace the fallen ones.

The Flame Belle was not stopped by the barbarians. She stepped onto the floor dedicated to the training of the barbarians. She looked at the men covered in sweat, busy hacking their weapons at each other. There were quite a few Flame Sisters scattered around, carrying gourds of water and clean towels.

She felt her heart squeeze in pain. She clenched her fists and approached the barbarian in command. In terms of authority, he was only second to Dorcas, his name was Klein.

The latter looked at the approaching Flame Belle and stopped barking orders. He turned toward her and grinned. "s.l.u.t! Did Dorcas finally get bored of playing with you?"

The barbarians had all already noticed the appearance of the Flame Belle; they momentarily stopped their training and listened to the conversation.

The Flame Belle felt her confidence shattering inside. "No. The chief said that I will be able to speak to all the Flame Sisters alone."

"Really?" said Klein with an amused expression. "I don't believe he said that. What if you are trying something to run away with the Flame Sisters?"

The Flame Belle bit her lips. Her hands trembled as she noticed the wolf-like stare of the barbarians. "He really did say that it."

Klein maintained his intense stare for a moment before finally turning around. "Fine! I will believe you once since you've been so obedient these days. But if I learn that you are tricking me, I'll make sure to speak to Dorcas afterward."

He signaled to the barbarians who stopped their training. The Flame Sisters rushed to the Flame Belle and gathered around her. Some went to call the others who were resting in another part of the dungeon.

"I am sorry. So sorry I could not protect you." The Flame Belle broke into tears. It was the first time she could actually speak to the Flame Sisters. With just one look, she knew they have all been through difficult times.

The Flame Sisters remained silent, not knowing how to comfort her. It was only by staying together that the Flame Sisters' spirits did not break yet. They knew the Flame Belle had it harder than anyone else as she was isolated from their group. They did not blame her for what happened but still hoped that they would somehow reverse the situation.

On the side, the barbarians had all gathered staring like wolves at the women. Klein laughed among the men. "Such a pity we cannot play with the Flame Belle before Dorcas gets bored of her."

"The chief only said we cannot touch her. Why don't we get on the Flame Sisters in front of her? You can stare at her and imagine that it's her. It should be pretty effective," laughed another barbarian.

"What? You want to skip training to play with girls?" said Klein but the barbarian's idea was indeed interesting. "Fine. We all deserve a little break."

He clapped his hands loudly, attracting the attention of the Flame Sisters. "Alright. Time is up."

The Flame Belle was taken aback. "I did not even get to speak with them."

"Dorcas never specified how long I needed to let you speak. As far as I am concerned, you've already been given your opportunity." He grinned and at the same time, he untied his belt.

The Flame Sisters froze. They all had a bad feeling and knew what was coming.

"You can't do that. I will tell your chief!" exclaimed the Flame Belle as she pulled her sisters behind her.

However, Klein was fast and he was not the only barbarian making his move. "You can complain all you want. Be obedient! I cannot touch you but I can show you what we'll do together once Dorcas lets you go."

"Now. Don't move. You don't want us to kill the dungeon master because of your stubbornness, right?" Klein violently pulled a Flame Sister in his arms while staring at the s.h.i.+vering Flame Belle. The latter wanted to protect her sister but was unable to make a single move.

"Haha. Don't close your eyes. Just watch!"

The Flame Belle felt Klein's spit landing on her face. She heard the cries of help of the Flame Sisters and suddenly, an explosion sounded.

The Flame Belle did not understand what happened. She opened her eyes only to see a screaming Flame Sister being held by a headless body. The entire training area descended into chaos.

"You! Who are you? How did you get in here?"

"Why are you attacking us?"

The barbarians shouted before being instantly killed by wind blades. At the entrance, the Flame Belle saw several monsters led by winged women.

'Who are these winged women? No, they are harpies... How did they enter?' thought the Flame Belle.

The barbarians were caught off guard; while it was the training area, most of them had left their training equipment when they a.s.saulted the Flame Sisters. Many still had their pants down and were completely defenseless against the attack of the monsters.

The average level of the barbarians was level 35. They were stronger than the harpies who averaged level 30 but the harpies were not the only monsters present. A group of beasts was led by the Three-Horned Rhinoceros and the Purpled-eyed Vulture. Together with the Harpy Queen, the Boss Monsters dealt a ma.s.sive amount of damage to the barbarian.

Out of the four hundred who were training in the dungeon, more than two hundred died before they could even react.
