《The fool's paradise (dungeon novel)(complete)》Meaningful Number 33

Lucifer found Selenia grinding some medicinal herbs for the next battle, he said "You have performed very poorly Selenia" in a grave tone, she snapped back "you do better" as she continued to grind the plant matter, He coldly replied "If it were me I would not have attacked the strongest person first with such a simple attack, do you think that you are a master swordsman or that your gear makes you invincible, foolish.
After your first strike failed you should have pulled back to avoid being surrounded" Selenia shouted back "That damn rogue got me by surprise" then screamed in intense pain, Lucifer harshly rebutted "Why do you think I gave you those tracking enchantments, they should give you an absolute advantage in this dungeon, but instead you don't even use them for more than a cursory glance, would the rogue still live if you found him earlier". Selenia bit her lip in frustration as she straightened her hair from writhing on the ground.
Lucifer continued "you are arrogant, sickeningly so, you seem to think that everything will go according to your plan and they should just sit back and die and when they don't you lose your head, why did you continue to attack the leader when you could have attacked anyone else weaker, the mana shield won't last forever, by relying on it all you accomplished was giving time for the enemy's to get reinforcements"
Lucifer became more irritated the more he thought about it, "just go kill the weaker stragglers that have yet to regroup into the main force now. Sigh... Kuro has accomplished more than you and she doesn't have the benefit of your armor nor experience, I'm disappointed in you"
Selenia left teary eyed on slightly unsteady legs as she thought "I know he was worried about me but he didn't have to be such a bastard about it", then stomped away.

Meanwhile Lucky flew around frantically from place to place, the soldiers on the ground had begun to spread the news that red glowing things had treasure in them. Lucky wiped the sweat from her brow with a sigh of satisfaction, after taking a deep breath she flew off again busy as a bee.
A group of soldiers moved around the dungeon floor while the main group slowly prepared for the main assault, the groups of soldiers hoped to find some fortune for themselves while everyone else was busy.
As they walked through the jungle suddenly a familiar red glow caught the soldiers eyes, they began going towards it but, when they caught sight of what was glowing they found that it was not a treasure or rare plant, instead, the glow came from a group of confused soldiers.
One of the men whispered into the leader's ear "Boss we saw Gabe get treasure from a similar glow only an hour ago", the boss looked at him and said "well if want them I can introduce you to them" causing the others the barely contain their laughter, the man replied back "No you idiot, I think they already have the treasure", The groups eyes flashed with greed, then their face darkened.
Lucky floated high above the ground while she watched the groups start to squabble about non-existent treasure, one group wanted to "share it between brothers" the other insisted that they had nothing of value, every time they said this the other sides bloodlust grew because they thought the other side was holding back on them.
She held her hand over her mouth to contain her laughter as they began fighting to the death. After the battle one side obtained victory, but at the cost of most of their group, they quickly searched the bodies and started cursing when they found nothing.

Lucky whistled softly enough that the sound was inaudible to human ears, then out of the groves several leopards with flowers weaved around its heads and ears appeared, The surviving members could only stare in horror as a cute fairy fluttered down, then spoke in a cutesy tone that seemed childish "get em FLuffy hehe"
The last thing heard from those men were screams as they were torn apart by claws and fangs, Lucky suddenly jolted and spoke to herself "Oh no I'm late for work" before fluttering off again to cause more havoc.
Similar scenes of groups killing each other played out again during the next several hours, causing no small amount of amusement for Lucifer as he thought "Note to self reward Lucky"
