《Angel's Song: Requiem of the Dreams》56. Dungeon Diving (V)
Advertisement
With a heavy roar that could shake a man's soul, the Demon Tiger lunged at Snow. They clashed head-on, the Demon Tiger was overpowering her with pure strength that she wasn't ready for. Mostly because the way it bent and moved made it very difficult to get a grip on its powerful body.
The only thing that locked into the body was her claws, which she was finally able to get a good grip. The Demon Tiger roared, trying to throw her off. She grabbed on tightly, digging her feet into the ground.
Tamaki rushed in behind her. His sword flashed in an instant slicing the head off the demon tiger effortlessly. Snow let go as the body flopped down lifelessly as blood sprayed. She grabbed Red and pulled her up to her feet, bringing her behind.
The others quickly huddled around each other, facing their backs as they looked around.
A flash of another Demon Tiger jumped out from the forest right at Dairen.
Dairen raised his bow, fired as it pierced perfectly in its eyes.
With a painful roar, the Demon Tiger fell and fumbled, trying to get back on its feet. Dairen used this chance and pulled out a dagger from his belt. He strikes, stabbing the side and eventually pushing his dagger into the other eye. The Demon Tiger shuddered in pain, dying on the spot.
Tommy and Tamaki were suddenly attacked by a group of three Demon's Tigers. Tommy charged his brass-knuckled fist with magic, punching them down one after another. Tamaki would do a follow-up, slicing them or impaling them effortlessly as he moved onto the other.
Snow, on the other hand, was protecting Red, who was in half deliria from the attack. She grabbed Red and slapped her on her face.
"Wake up!" Snow shouted, angry at her momentary lapse. "I need you to assist me!"
Red gaped at Snow. One could see that she quickly realized what had happened to her.
Snow could feel the magic was starting to flow around Red, giving them a much-needed cover of enchantments and buffs around them. She felt her physical body increase in speed and strength, giving her the extra push she needed to solo a Demon Tiger by herself.
Her tail whipped around on one of the Demon's Tiger neck, pulling it down into the ground head first. Her summoned sword flashed forward, pulling it out of her sheathe as she stabbed into the Demon Tiger's head.

No way was she going to let the Demon Tigers stop her from her goals and getting out of this dungeon. Her fight became ferocious, almost scary to anybody who was watching, but luckily everybody was in their battle.
Eventually, they were able to overcome the Demon Tiger's attack as Mike and Dairen were the last to hunt down the final Demon Tiger.
Snow walked towards the nearest demon Tiger's carcass. She knelt and started to skin it. It took a bit of effort as she was fighting between hurling and focusing; eventually, she was able to win against her mind and stomach as she finished dismantling the Demon's Tiger's coat.
The others understood what she was doing and assisted. Most of the dismantling was done by the others as they were much more efficient than herself.
"You know, I always wondered why the whole body couldn't be stored, but pieces of it can?" Mike replied, "I thought this world had a much higher magic and stuff that can make this happen."
"We do." Snow replied, "But those cost so expensive that it's hard to obtain one; these storage that you have are much more easier to make and distribute. It's just that storing whole bodies is prohibited in certain magic because it falls under Necromancy, and Necromancy is considered a dark art and something not to trifle with. It's a bit complicated. " She wanted one of the S class storage items, but the cost was devastatingly high for her pockets. So far, only three were made.
"So, the only way is to dismantle it?" Mike replied, not understanding her.
"Yes, it's a weird magical rule that makes no sense." Snow wasn't so sure herself, but this was the reason what the magical community gave her.
"I wish we had a porter with us."
"We only need the bones, fur, tendons, and the heart." Snow was putting away her half dismantled body.
"Wait," Dairen spoke, "I think I might have a way to help speed up the process." He put away his bow.
Looking around, there were still a handful more Demon Tigers that needed to be dismantled. At the rate that they were going, they would take a few more hours before able to move on with their journey.
"You do?" Mike was interested in what Dairen was going to do.
"Yea," Dairen replied, he summoned up his dark energy that swirled in his spiral. He reached over towards this storage watch, bringing it up to get a better view. The dark energy, on his other hand, was brought over towards the watch.

"What are you doing?" Snow asked, a bit flustered. "If you aren't careful, you can cause a small scale black hole." She raised her hand to stop him from doing something crazy.
"Let me try this."
Before Snow could get to him, he mixed his power into the watch.
Snow was alarmed at Dairen's crazy antiques. "Everyone gets back!" She jumped back, hiding behind the tree. The others did exactly what she said and scattered.
Pulsating black energy grew to extraordinary size; Snow could feel the raw powers behind it. Dairen was covered in dark energy. Instantly, the energy became unstable, shaking the ground.
"Dairen?! What are you doing?!" Snow yelled. She was thinking of a way to stop the outbreak of the dark energy that seems to rumble with life.
"Just...give me a moment." Dairen was too engrossed in his thoughts as the fluctuations were becoming a lot more chaotic than before. The energy became bigger and bigger into a giant ball. In the middle of the ball, a spark of green energy that glowed with intensity sparkled like lightning.
Snow and the others were pulled back even further. Her guts were telling her that any minute now, the dark energy was going to go out of control. What was worse was that she felt a hint of NecromancyNecromancy in his dark energy that told her he was using dark arts. Alarmed by her finding, her thoughts ran into overdrive.
Where could he have learned it? Why were Players so irresponsible? She didn't know, but she knew this would spell trouble. Necromancy wasn't an art to be trifled with, and Dairen learned a forbidden art.
With a sparkle of light magic, she started to form multiple small light ball energy.
"Dairen! Get out of there!" Snow yelled, her light energy started to swirl into a mini-tornado. She couldn't wait any longer; she could feel the energy around Darien starting to climax into a dangerous mind field.
Snow threw her first magical light energy at the ball of dark energy. With a splash, the light energy ball hit the wall, sizzling upon contact with the power as it sent out a chaotic pulse. Everyone ducked and covered, trying not to get zapped in the face.
"Not helping, Snow!" Mike yelled. "Damn it, Dairen! What are you doing?! Are you trying to kill us all?"
"Sorry." Snow replied she twirled her energy into her hand. She realized that her magic was not strong enough as it repelled it instead.
Suddenly, the dark energy spazzed outwards with an explosion. Snow ducked, covering herself and the others. The dark energy licked her light shield, squeezing it like a stress ball.
"Dairen!" Snow yelled, "you got to control your magic!"
"I got it!" Dairen yelled in excitement, the dark energy suddenly shot inwards, leaving everyone a bit stupefied.
The storage item in his wrist sparkled with dark energy. He excitedly showed it off and walked over towards the dead bodies of the dead monsters. Extending his wrist, the body was transported into his device.
Everyone stood in place, baffled at what they saw.
"Did he just use necromancy?" Tommy was the first to speak, waking everyone up into a stupor.
"Yes." Mr. Everrett got up from behind the rocks, wiping away the dirt. He didn't even seem to care that Dairen had such an ability.
"Do Players get abilities like that left and right so easily?" Tommy couldn't help but asked, looking at Darien weirdly. "I knew Players were all crazy, but this is quite insane. Even Forbidden arts is like their special back yard without any consequences." He shook his head.
Snow couldn't believe it either, but what he could do. She wasn't a Player's babysitter.
"When did you learn it?" Snow asked, knowing full well that he would get in trouble if he weren't careful.
"The last prayer to the God of Darkness from the last level." Dairen shrugged his shoulder, not minding that he learned a forbidden art.
"You do know it's called forbidden for a reason. I suggest you be careful." She hissed. "The magical community is not going to agree with this so easily."
Red came over; she was giddy with excitement, jumping around him as if he was a new specimen. "Don't worry. I'll keep this information safe." She grabbed his wrist and took a good look at his wrist. "He created an S level storage system. This is purely amazing." She looked up at him with a twinkle in her eyes.
The others looked away, not caring about what Snow had said about NecromancyNecromancy.

A race capable of corrupting living beings and inducing fear, even the bravest of warriors cannot resist—when the Fearmongers do not kill them, that is.To bait humans into this conflict, the gods offer the mortals powers in exchange of eternal servitude and the completion of trials before finally entering Iris.Even though Aito doesn’t agree with it, he sees in Iris a chance to atone for his past misdeeds, in this fantasy world of swords and magic filled with many races, where everything seems possible.He will pave his own path despite the gods he despises trying to manipulate him into doing their bidding.Aito will start with almost nothing but his wit, a peculiar system, and increased strength—much like other revived humans.Bearing a sin—he could not, cannot, and will not forget—haunting him to this day, Aito will strive to regain what little honor he has left.He will suffer and, at times, fail. Taking advantage of his weaknesses, the Fearmongers, demigods, gods, and many others will hinder his path.But a powerful yearning will keep him from falling apart.

The book isn’t done yet. Haha—SLAP!«Who put this guy in the synopsis narration?! Get him out of here and launch the warnings! Now!»***WARNINGS:— The MC is human. If you’re looking for a perfect MC, you’ll only be wasting your time here. However, if you’re looking for an MC who will LEARN, GROW because of his flaws. An MC who will try his hardest to overcome adversity, then you’re in the right place.— No harems. However, it doesn’t mean the characters can’t fool around without having love interests. A relationship isn’t necessary for people to satisfy their physical desires.— You will find a few typos, grammatical and wording issues, that’s certain. I’ll do my best to bring you guys quality content and such issues will either be nonexistent or extremely few. However, one man can only do so much. If I get enough support, I’ll hire an EDITOR that will look at the chaps with a fresh eye. And POOF! Issues no more. Improved quality. Happier author and reader. Not sure if the editor will be happy tho.— The first three chapters are fast-paced as to quickly get into the nitty-gritty but slow down afterward to give the story the time it needs to progress accordingly.— The book can, never mind, it will contain «strong» language, gore and violence.— Comedy, as you know it (and if you don’t, now you know) is subjective. So you might not like the jokes.— If you truly read that until the end you have my virtual congratulations ‘cause I sure as hell wouldn’t have done that.
