Me, Mirikin and Akuna are traveling towards Ironrock. There is a dungeon there what I want to check out. But something is wrong... I can constantly feel something following us and sometimes I hear humans talking to eachother in the forest. My hearing and sight are enhanced thanks to being a dungeon and having a lot more mana than regular humans. I turn towards Mirikin.

Quinn: "Mirikin... There are people following us. There were people who knew you in the town we came from too. How famous are you? And don't look back."

Mirikin: "I have a lot of people who want to be my suitor just because of how I look... And they also just want a branch manager to marry them and I was the only branch manager who wasn't married. And also for a third reason... The traveller who bought me and Mayu... Mayu told this to you didn't she? Well... He gave us a lot of money... We haven't even spent half of it yet..."

Quinn: "Hmm... Understandable. Mirikin, be prepeared for an ambush this midnight. You heard them talk too or no?"

Mirikin: "I don't have enough mana like you to hear people whisper. I'll prepeare and tell this to Akuna."

Mirikin walks towards Akuna and explains the situation. Seems people really want Mirikin for her looks and money. Well no matter. I can sense mana after I consumed the demons mana completely. These people don't have a lot of mana compared to Akuna even... And Akuna has the least amount of mana from all 3 of us. I have almost triple the amount of mana of Mirikin and Akuna put together and then a dungeon core there too. That demon was filled with mana... The dungeon core had a lot of mana too but I can't use any spells... I'll need to address this issue. We continue walking for a bit until midnight approaches. We set up camp in a little flatter area because the forest we were walking in was hilly and uneven. I keep my black sword next to me and wait. I hear them coming closer and I grab the hilt of my sword... And then I got up and slashed in just a mere three seconds. I killed five of them in one slash.

Looking at the amount of mana near me there are atleast 25 of them left. There is one person with more mana than the rest. Probably the leader of this little assualt on our camp. I look at the five I killed and I spot something. A pentagram engraved into their gloves. They were wearing all black with a cloak... Well the cloak is now slashed in half.

I move towards the tent the girls are staying in. There are 10 of them approaching the girls tent. I start running and notice I am way faster than them. I close the gap between me and the 10 men in just a mere second surprising them. They look like they are in slow motion to me right now... This is the gap of power between me and some measly bandits. I kick one of them and he is thrown into 4 others. I slash the other 5 with my black blade tearing them in half. I look towards the ones who got knocked down by the one I kicked. The one I kicked seems to be dead. The other four fell unconcious. I hear the girls mumbling behind my back about something. There are only 15 bandits left after I slash the 4 unconcious bandits into small pieces. I head towards the 15 who are staying in a clearing in the forest. The girls are dressing themselves behind me but I leave them behind and start running. It only takes me five seconds to appear infront of them with a cloud of dust covering me. I let the dust settle down and look at them. They all have pentagrams in their gloves and the stronger one has a scepter with a red orb ontop of it. Interesting... I jump in the middle of the small group and swing my sword in a circle. All of them fall except the one who had a scepter. He noticed what I was going to do and jumped up but couldn't avoid my swing and had his legs cut off. I look towards the legless bandit. Good time to get some information about these guys.

Quinn: "Bandit. Who sent you?"

Bandit: "HAH! Why should I tell you!"

Quinn: "Because I will make it hurt. A LOT."

I step on the guy right where a nerve is. I constrict my strength to not kill him and he screams loudly in pain.

Quinn: "Talk."

Bandit: "I REFUSE!"

I kick the guy in the face throwing him into a tree. I walk towards the tree where the bandit is.

Quinn: "I told you to talk. Now do it."

Bandit: "No!"

I ready a strong punch.

Bandit: "OK! Do not kill me please! We were sent by the lord of the castle nearby! He wanted to get Mirikin as his wive even if he had to use force!"

Quinn: "Good bandit. Now tell me the location of the castle."

Bandit: "Find it yourself!"

Quinn: "Bad bandit."

I kick the bandit in the groin. He screams in extreme pain.

Bandit: "Damn... You... You are a demon... Aren't you..."

I hear footsteps behind me and look. It's the girls who caught up.

Quinn: "Oh hey Mirikin and Akuna. I took care of the guys. Seems it was an organized ambush by a lord of the castle nearby. Want to drag this guy there?"

Mirikin: "Oh... We are in the are where THAT guy is at... No just kill him..."

I look at Mirikin for a bit and then pick up my blade what I left behind.

Bandit: "You told me I wasn't going to die!"

Quinn: "When? I never agreed to it."

I slash the bandits head right off. It flies up into the air and lands on my blade exactly on the tip.

Quinn: "Let's go talk to the lord of the castle. Just in case he tries to do something like this again."

Mirikin: "Whatever suits you... But beware... This guy is an absoloute idiot who believes he can get everything with money. Even more money by using money... He only has money and his good looks... I almost fell for him at first sight..."

Mirikin starts blushing a little and I notice it...

Quinn: "You fell for him at first sight didn't you. And now you saw me and fell out of love with him because I looked better?"

Mirikin: "Yeah..."

She blushes even stronger. Akuna was just standing there and looking at the carnage I created single-handedly.

Akuna: "Mirikin... Are you capable of doing this? Am I capable of doing this?"

Mirikin: "Quinn is a dungeon after all... He is stronger than a regular human and he consumed a Demons mana... The more mana you have the stronger and more powerful your body and your mind become and the older you can get."

Akuna: "So I have to get more mana..."

Akuna starts muttering to herself and I clean my blade with the black cloak of the people I just killed. We decided to take a detour towards the castle what was just a few kilometers east of the path we were at now. I'll just "kindly" knock on his door and "kindly" clean the trash in his house and "kindly" repay him. "Kindly..." Hahahha. That demonic mana must be gettign to my mind. I thought I got rid of it all... Maybe my own mind is creating this? Hmm... No time to wonder. I already know what I am going to do.

I head towards the east with the girls. I notice they are slower than me and then I pick them up on my shoulders. They are surprised by my sudden action but I don't have much time. I start running at full-speed towards the castle and the girls are enjoying their little ride. We get there in 15 minutes of me running. I am quite fast...

I stop infront of the castle doors and guards immediatly take action. I put down the girls and walk towards the castle doors. I knock on them with full strength and they just blast off towards the keep. I look in both ways to make sure there are no guards and keep walking. I squashed most of the guards with the castle doors and the others who weren't dead are now too scared to come at me. I walk infront of the keep doors and hit them with my leg. They blast off too but I restricted my power to not kill him instantly. It would be troublesome to kill a lord and have a small civil war go on for who gets this castle. When I look towards the castle throne... I see a good-looking man with 2 slaves next to him. The slaves seem like they are for a certain entertainment purpouse... But it seems they are really unhappy about it looking into their eyes. I look at the lord.

Lord: "Who are you! Who gave you permission to enter MY castle! And why are you eyeing MY slaves!"

Quinn: "Oh sorry humble idiotic Lord. I am just here to knock some common sense into you and make you free all your slaves from their imprisonment... And also to stop bothering Mirikin."

Lord: "Oh! Mirikin's lacky huh? If I defeat you I get her huh? Hah! Guards take him down!"

A small elite squad of guards come out of the door but when they see the castle doors on the floor and guards dead outside... They start running backwards. They litteraly ran out of there because they knew that I was too dangerous. I started laughing and so did Akuna and Mirikin who caught up to me after I entered. The lord looks at me in shame and the slaves who were next to him and the slaves around the keep were laughing too.

Quinn: "That was your elite guard squad? Hahahhaha! They ran so fast! Well... Time for some tutoring."

I move so fast it looks like I teleported infront of him. A gust of wind goes through the keep as I appear infront of the lord. The slaves fall back in surprise but they are kept up by chains what are connected to the throne. The throne itself is a stone throne what is stuck to the ground.

Quinn: "First. NEVER bother anybody else again. Second. Help people. Third. Free all your slaves. If you cannot do all three of those tasks. Punishment."

Lord: "Never! Give me Mirikin or I will make the king make you an exil-"

Before he can finish his sentence I cut off his entire left arm. He screams in pain.

Lord: "Ok ok! Slaves you are all free to go! You can go! Here are the keys!"

He throws the keys from his pocket out. I bandage his left arm so he won't bleed out with a cloth I found on the floor.

Lord: "I will help people and not bother people with annoying things again!"

Quinn: "Promise?"

Lord: "I promise, I promise!"

The elite guard comes in again but this time they run at the lord. They look at me and I see some of them crying.

Quinn: "Guards... Why are you crying?"

Guard: "We were bound to him by a slave contract... Everybody here is a slave of that man... The left arm you cut off was never supposed to be cut off by a mortal blade... But it seems the contract was terminated the moment you stepped in the keep... You saved us from a tyrannical leader.."

Quinn: "So he had hundreds of slaves?"

Guard: "Yes... You are allowed to have 10-20 slaves but any more than that and you would need to explain it to the King personally... But he never did and kept getting slaves and pretending they were hired by money... He forced people from towns to give him money to help him..."

Quinn: "What about the party of 30 he sent at us?"

Guard: "Those were assassins and thieves trained by him... They were also slaves... He made them look like Bandits just in case.. How did you find out..?"

Quinn: "I asked one of them nicely."

The guards start laughing while crying and I head out. Mirikin looks at the scene inside and laughs a little. We leave for Ironrock and the girls want to get on my shoulders again. I let them jump on my shoulders and then I run towards Ironrock. We reach it in a few minutes. I was happy because I could test out my sword but it seems like I still need to learn magic...

I feel like a core piece is in the dungeon in Ironrock... But somebody with high-mana is here. We head towards an inn and get a room. The manager of the inn winks at us. When we enter there is only one bed... I offer to sleep on the floor but Akuna says no. Mirikin seems to be in a state of deep thought and then she finally decides to let me sleep on the bed with her. I fall asleep in the middle of 2 girls and hear Mayu and Innver having a conversation between eachother again. I can hear them talk to eachother but they didn't talk to me much. Probably because they don't have anything to talk about. They are talking about Mayus death and Heretics right now huh...

Mayu: "Quinn. I know you can hear us."

Quinn: "Yeah yeah... I've been listening in. What do you need?"

Mayu: "I need to explain to you about Heretics."

Quinn: "Oh yeah.. The S-class did call you an Heretic."

Mayu: "Heretics are technically people who went into a dungeon and killed themselves voluntarily. They believe Dungeons are sent by gods to control the world and save us from the Demons. Upcourse the S-class and SS-class people know that Heretics are idiotic and only help the Demons... Because as you saw a Demon was corrupting a Dungeon Core. After 12 months... Usually...A demon comes to a dungeon and if it is too pure,it corrupts it. If it is evil and weak it offers it more power. We usually take care of the Corrupt Dungeons but new non-corrupt ones pop up near the dead Corrupt ones and over time they begin to corrupt too. But the dungeons usually give us items so we can't just instantly kill them..."

Quinn: "Understandable. Well... What do you think about the situation I am in currently?"

Mayu: "Well... You are sleeping between what is technically my slave and my sister... I don't... Really... Mind..."

Quinn: "You hate it don't you."

Mayu: "Maybe... A little.... A lot..."

Quinn: "I'll get you a Dryad body and infuse your soul into it. I promise Mayu."

Mayu: "Thanks Quinn.... Thanks..."

I fall asleep but in my "dreams" I talk with Mayu and Innver about some things. Mostly about my other world because they were interested in the world I was reincarnated from but I am still bothered about the big mana pool in the town... It is coming from a human... An S-class? Maybe an A-class? It's a little bigger than my mana pool so I am worried if I can kill it without using my dungeon apples infront of everybody...
