《The Games That Bind Us》Chapter 67 - Dungeon Hunting
Advertisement
it has been a while since I went to the Crystal Falls dungeon. The fact I have kids and there existence is guaranteed just made me check, yep, everyone is pregnant. Eron scared me more then made me at ease, Dragons reproduce in high number, she has 43 children waiting to become eggs. and from that she said she expects 32 children. the fact I only see 1 is either the fact only one hatched, the others cant time travel. or they are dead. I will grow stronger and prevent that last outcome.
"John, you are needed in the quest room, Michael, Isaac, Kieran, Lin, Victoria and 00391 are already there waiting for you" Conner said to me through the crystal communication system, I used Blink Step and looked at the people gathered. there was only one quest. some dungeons are acting up and need to be stopped. I picked up the dungeon that looks easiest.
[Dungeon: 7 Sins]
[Difficulty: easy]
[Floors: 7]
that was all the information I had, everyone else picked up their own respective dungeon, nobody got anything to hard so I hoped to be back in time for some afternoon training. I use Paper Plane and fly off. I find a simple pit, in the put there was a portal, like any normal sane person I jumped into it with a smile.
[Floor 1: Greed]
... nothing? I just walked forward towards the clear set of stairs. I walked down in and the next floor.
[Floor 2: Sloth]
I felt slightly tired but it was nothing I couldn't handle. maybe it depends on the mental stability of the person in the dungeon? oh well.
[Floor 3: Envy]
... nothing? I don't envy anyone, I don't need to, oh well, I continue on to the next set of stairs.
[Floor 4: Gluttony]

I have forgotten the last time I ate anything, this floor can't do anything to me.
[Floor 5: Pride]
ARG, my head hurt a bit, not enough to loose it over, but I guess I have my pride, I wonder what the other 2 floors will be?
[Floor 6: Lust]
I had my vision go blurry and I felt the warmth of Kate, Eron, Nina, Lilian, E.... no, this is easy to see through, it is a Illusion to try and blind me and corrupt me, not going to happen. I just moved on, how hard could the last floor be?
Kieran's Point Of View.
I got back after finishing up a strange dungeon. the Ice Palace... it was easy as I just made the dungeon implode on itself. I was not holding much back with my previous experience with dungeons. I looked around and noticed Isaac, damn he beat me to the first place position, next with probably be John since he took an easy mission. then??? someone.
oh well, I left and began sleeping, however that was disturbed by a highly dark power emanating from the west. it vanished quickly. I probably should let someone know. I jump down from the top of the building and see Kate a few cm from where I landed, guess I gave her a shock?
"Kate, I felt a dark power from the west, thank you for dealing with it" I said simply and then walked off. I used to be asked to deal with things however when I say I did it I mean I put a few people 6 feet under... oops.
Kate's Point Of View
I saw Kieran for a second before I noticed a pile of blood on the floor reforming into him... monster....
"Kate, I felt a dark power from the west, thank you for dealing with it" Kieran said before walking off. damn it, I am looking for John not some random dark power. I will tell father. with that in mind I walked over to his office. he was 'out on business. oh well. I wrote a not on his desk. by that I mean I burnt the words onto his expensive looking new desk.

I then waited for John however he did not return, he must be out for the night, I go to the room and see everyone else. "Has anyone seen John?" I asked and they gave me a 'I thought he was with you' look which is always nice to see.
"Please don't tell me" Nina started saying and we all thought it was serous. "He isn't out charming another woman right?" Nina said and we looked at each other. Yuna!... he must be paying her a visit. well I though that until we got a knock on the door from Yuna looking worried.
"Kate! I was keeping an eye on John like normal however he walked into a dungeon and he not left it yet" Yuna said looking worried which made all of us look worried. I wonder what trouble he is in now. "It was the 7 Sins Dungeon" Yuna said... please don't tell me he got distracted with the sin of lust? idiot...
"It's ok, his Charm stat is just working against him a bit, but he will be out by tomorrow, that or I will drag him out" I said before stretching. I then felt a short sharp pain around my heart. I must have stretched to much, I moved to get some sleep in the bedroom.
(The Next Day)
I heard knocking on the door, I woke up and opened it. "Kate, we need to talk" Kieran said to me seriously, Conner was behind him. they handed me a piece of paper.
[Dungeon: 7 Sins]
[Difficulty: Easy (Hard)]
[Floors: 7]
that... is the dungeon John is in isn't it. "What is it?" I asked and Kieran looked grim.
"There was previously no Blue Mist creatures. now there is 1" Kieran said... no... I fell to my knee's. Kieran can be made normal as you can safely reduce him to dust... John? is as weak as the rest of us to the Blue Mist...
John's Point Of View
[Blue Mist Resistance: You have a minor resistance against the Blue Mist. resistance increases with skill level]
----------------------------------------
Chapter 68 - Greed
A party was made to save John however on the first floor there he was... a very greedy version.
I hope you enjoyed the chapter. the next set of chapters will be a bit more action packed enjoy.

8 198Blind As a Bat [1st book complete]
Book 1 He was cast to the edges of his clan. His father could not stand to even look at him. His baby sister probably didn't even know he was her brother... All because he, unlike all other vampire (The correct terminology will be Wanpyrkos; van-peer-coe-s) kind, was born blind. And what do all creatures do to those that are different, those that do not fit society, those that they think should not have been born to this civilized society...? [Book Cover Made by the wonderful THEMIDNIGHTECLIPSE13] - thank you! I'm only introducing the perspective of the main character for the first part. Things change drastically soon after that. [BDSM entries are clearly marked and written so they can be skipped without affecting the story] ***A couple scenes to whet your palate*** 1. "Uh, we heal from pretty much everything and anything. Have you ever tried physically damaging your eyes to see if they would fully heal?" "N-no. No, it doesn't work," I forced out, my voice a little strangled and cracking before hardening. "And stuff like that, isn't that just wrong?! Hurting someone just to 'fix' them." 2. I leaned and he met me, our soft lips touching and moving perfectly on each other's. I felt as his tongue ran the slit of my lips, my tongue coming to graze it as it passed over, knowing doing so was like catnip to him. He leaned closer, and I shivered as his hands ran from low on my hips and grazed along and up my ribs, pulling my chest closer to his so my body arched and rubbed against him. I hummed in appreciation. [warning: so far aggressive or physical bullying and maybe a little kidnappage and sexual themes as well as possible trigger warnings]
