《The Calamity of a Dungeon Crawl》Quid Pro Quo
Advertisement
Floor 4, the dungeon floor, the glowing ore illuminates the walls and ceiling into an illusion of an open space, grass grows freely around the dungeon due to the glowing ores mana. The Treasure Guild is the main Guild on this floor, it shows players how to mine and make money, due to the low amount of monsters, no other guilds have built a guild hall on this floor. Many low level players stay on this floor for a while to get increase their magic, weapons and earn money.
We made our way up the fourth floor, Miko was upset and annoyed with me because I didn’t bother to say bye to Sylf but instead gave her 1 Silver Shark Coin for healing me.
“She didn’t heal you because she wanted a reward Master Udon” Miko was still on this, far out.
“I don’t want to owe anyone anything Miko, now drop it” We walked through the narrow corridor, we hadn’t received the map for this floor and it was named the dungeon floor which meant it was a simple maze…I was never good at puzzles.
“Can’t you sense the way with your bee senses”
“Thats not a thing Master Udon” Miko gave a snarky reply
“Lets go right”
“Lets go left” Miko and I both said different ways, Miko looked at me and kept pointing left
“I’m going right, you do what you want” I grabbed Vnaa off the ground, she had the small hemp bag on her back.
“Master Udon, wait up!” Miko ran after us, what did she want? I couldn’t get rid of her until I had at least 4 or 5 familiars.
“You’re being mean Master Udon, what happened when you went off by yourself at the market?” Mean? I’m not a nice guy, she should know that by now.
“Nothing happened”
“Sylf said you changed, that something happened” Did that Elf see me kick those worthless bulls into the hole?
“Sylf needs to learn to shut her mouth” Miko looked at me, I could tell she was concerned, your plan to back-stab me wasn’t going to go off without a hiccup or two now, I’ll tear the contract up if you try anything.
“Help! Someone Help!” We heard a little boy screaming in the distance
“Master Udon, someones calling for help, lets go help”
“I’m not going anywhere, its probably a trap” I wasn’t going to fall for a simple trap like this, it was either a group of players ready to ambush you or some monsters that could imitate a little boy scream.
“I’m going” Miko dropped her bag and ran towards the scream, damn it Miko.
“Huh?” Vnaa jumped out of my arms and crawled after Miko, what was with these two!? I walked after them but they were already around the corner.

“I swear, if I turn this corner and you two are held hostage I’m walking off without you…” I turned the corner and saw a small boy crouched under an overturned wagon with a white sheet over the top of it, Miko was standing in front of him with Vnaa next to them.
“Is there anything valuable in that cart?” I shouted out to Miko, I was going to take it, I need some more money.
“Master Udon, over there!” Miko shouted out and pointed her dagger to a group of Cave Centipedes.
“Huh?” The five cave Centipedes had red scaly skin and a black underbelly, their pincers looked as sharp as a sword and their feet were as big as me.
“Garrhh” Vnaa let out a growling sound, I think, the Centipedes turned to me and started charging…What the hell! I’m not attacking you!
“Damn it girls! I told you not to run into this!” I dropped the three bags I was carrying and unsheathed my sword, I jumped out the way of the leading Centipede and stabbed the next one under its mouth and through the head.
Udon:
*37 Exp Points Acquired
Miko:
*36 Exp Points Acquired
Vnaa:
*44 Exp Points Acquired
“Master Udon cover your eyes!” Miko shouted out preparing to incant a spell.
“Hear my words dungeon, I ask to be surrounded, filled and illuminated with the dungeons flowing energy, hear my plea ‘The Power of Light’ Flash”
A blinding light appeared from Miko’s hands and blinded the Centipede’s, I used the opening to slice two of the legs off one Centipede and stab the other through the neck.
Udon:
*37 Exp Points Acquired
Miko:
*36 Exp Points Acquired
Vnaa:
*44 Exp Points Acquired
“Miko, take those two!” I shouted too Miko to take the other two Centipede’s that still hadn’t regained their vision, I’ll take the one with the missing legs.
“On it!” Miko ran in and up the back of one of them, she plunged her dagger deep into its skin and cut it open as she ran to the top of its head, she launched off and plunged her dagger into the others neck slicing the front of it open as she fell down to the ground.
“Take this!” I throw my sword and the Centipede, it pierced its side, the Centipede didn’t seem to have its vision back and was thrusting around randomly hitting the sides of the cave causing rocks to fall down, I managed to dodge them but the Centipede got smashed by a big boulder and was trapped.
“This is an easy win” I took my sword out from its side and plunged it into its head.
Udon:
*100 Exp Points Acquired

“Caterpillar Boost? I wonder what that is, hey Vnaa! Unlock your Caterpillar Boost” I shouted out to Vnaa, I had no idea if she understood me or not, but what was the point of these skills if she couldn’t unlock them.
“Gahh” Vnaa nodded and smiled at me.
“Skill unlocked-Caterpillar Boost (UC)”
Caterpillar Boost: 0/10 Mastery-Level 6 Uncommon Caterpillar Skill, Unlocked: Boosts the base speed by +5
“Caterpillar skill, that must be a special skill only for caterpillars, had someone told me monsters have their own set of skills?” I wondered to myself, Miko ran over to the little boy crouched under the flipped cart.
“Master Udon! He needs your help!” Huh? Seriously Miko? What is the point of you learning healing spells if you aren’t going to use them? I walked over to Miko who had pulled the boy out from the cart.
“What is it? Why can’t you use your healing spell?” I saw the little boy, he had light brown hair and was wearing a dark red shirt tucked into his light brown trousers being held up by a black belt and wore brown laced up boots.
“Master Udon, look at his arm” Miko held his left arm up, it had a bite mark, it looked infected and possibly poisoned, he was sweating a fair amount and shaking.
“T-thank you for saving m-me” The small boy opened his orange eyes and thanked Miko, Miko turned to me begging to save him.
“What will you give us if I save you?” I’m not saving this boy if I don’t get anything in return, Miko looked away and sighed, was she finally understanding I don’t do anything for free?
“M-my father is a h-high known merchant, I’m s-sure he’ll give you what ever y-you want” Hmm, sounded like his father was rewarding us not him, I could always keep the boy hostage if he refused to pay up.
“Fine, Miko hold his arm up, this is going to sting” I ripped up the feverfew leaves and combined them with some water, I put them in a small vile and put some of my mana into it.
*Pharmacist Mastery-2/10
New Healing Ointment successfully created!
Feverfew Leaf Ointment: quality: fair, cleans mild infectious bites immediately.
A small paste like substance was created in the vile, but again, the vile changed shape and design, this one looks like the same vile but, a bronze mermaid wrapped around the top. I put the ointment onto the boys wound and watched it heal.
“Ow” The boy squirmed as I put the ointment on, I told him it would sting.
“Is that a new medicine?” Miko looked on amazed at the infected bite cleaning up.
“Here, I’ll wrap the bite in a bandage so it doesn’t get dirty again, you need to look after it yourself though” I took out one of my small hemp bandages and wrapped the boys bite, I only had two bandages left, I should try and find an upgraded version of the item.
“T-thank you Mr, I’ve never seen a medicine like that” The boy managed to get to his feet and bowed his head to me
“I only did this for the reward, where’s your old man live?” I didn’t care about his gratitude, I just wanted the reward.
“Master Udon, you’re amazing” Huh? What was that? Miko was looking at me, her eyes sparkling.
“Garrrrr” Vnaa climbed up onto my shoulder and rubbed her head against mine, I couldn’t help but pat her.
“Miko, can you please skin one or two of the centipedes” Miko nodded her head and went off, after she finished skinning those two centipedes her basic monster skinning skill had reached level four mastery.
“Yes, of course, I’m sure my father will be grateful of you, if you would please escort me back to him, he can pay your fairly” Escort you back to him? What is with this little punks attitude!
“I uhh, I-I mean if you would please accompany me back to him, I will ensure you get paid extra” Thats better, the kid must have seen me glaring down at him, little punk.
