They had beat a single group and they were all tired and needed rest. Pepe felt it, his arms were tired, his legs burned from all the movement, and he was mentally drained as well. But they had a way to go still.

“Maria how much experienced until my next level?”

User Role Level Experience

Pepe Thief 4 10/675

He still had a way to go. The creatures had not given a great amount of experience, they would need to fight a lot to get him another level. He was behind, the others had reached level four even before coming to the dungeon, he had not thought about asking Michelle what level she was. He would need to go solo or with Michelle to make up for not being there during the escort quest encounter, it had been his fault though. He had wanted to go after the thieves when it had happened, but someone needed to stay with Miss Tebesa and protect the camp. He did not feel like he had been punished for his screw up back then, his biggest regret missing out on the experience points.

Pepe came out of his reminiscing looked around at his friends, they were catching their breath, it had been an interesting fight and quite a bit of moving around until they figured out what to do. He was a little out of breath, he took a few deep breaths to get it under control. Saw perspiration on Michelle’s lovely face, her hair a bit wet from sweating. Then over at his cousin, he had his eyes closed was in one of those stances his instructor had showed him and was in a form of mediation, his breathing already under control. He would need to ask about the meditation thing seemed like something he should know; his training had not included meditation.

Pepe looked at the cavern, paid more attention at the little caves around the edges, they would need to move on to the next group, see what the composition would be, how many would come out? There was a larger exit, but to get to it would likely attract too many groups, what was in there? They either needed to go around to the left or the right. Now that they knew what to do, they would be able to beat these things easily.

Josh went over the plan. The plan a simple one, Manuel did his tank thing, soon as the group was under control Pepe would jump, they would handle that one, followed by Michelle, then Bobby only under extreme emergencies, Erin would be in standby if any got away from Manuel. Any blues they would just go with what they had just done, Pepe followed by Michelle. Pepe liked the plan it was simple, and he liked simple.

Everyone had their breathing under control and ready to continue, Pepe was eager to start, he was not a planner even though his master had said make sure you have a plan. He was glad that Josh was the leader, he did not have to worry about these things, he was a damage dealer, point him in the direction he needed to go, and he would go. Maybe others would think him dumb for being this way, but he was far from dumb, he just was not confident when put in a leadership position.

They moved as a group to the right of the cavern, saw that at some point the next group came out, this time two reds and one blue, did their little round then returned to the little cave, minutes later they did it again. Pepe was unsure where the magic invisible line they crossed to have them come out. Before they could go back in Manuel did his thing, and they started in on that group. Pepe went in jumped, they took out his target, followed by Michelle’s. The double jump for the Blue, wailed at it until they saw it move to come back up, then double jump again and then he was down.

Red Shrooms x2 defeated, 30 XP

Blue Shroom defeated, 30 XP

The next group consisted of one of each color, they repeated the cycle. Once again on the move, the next group was easy with just a green and a red, followed by one a bit harder as it had two blues and a green. This continued for three more groups, three greens, a blue and a red, and the final group consisted of the three colors again.

Green Shrooms x7 defeated, 105 XP

Red Shrooms x4 defeated, 80 XP

Blue Shrooms x5 defeated, 150 XP

That was not bad, he was more than halfway into his level, and they had not finished, while they had more groups on the left and while he wanted more experience Josh would make the call. He was getting tired again, and they had to face the Boss for this floor. Then two more floors to clear and two bosses, it was a bad idea to be exhausted at the last boss, it would not do if he was not on top of his game at that point.

It was time for a break, his friends all looked as tired as he felt, they were all sweaty from the encounters and out of breath again. From his count they had faced nine greens, six reds, and five blues, that was a lot of shrooms. His friends had likely leveled, if not ready to level up with the boss fight, hopefully he would level as well during the boss fight.

He went over to Josh, he really wanted to go over to Michelle, but she was talking with Manuel and Erin, and he did not want his cousin to start in on him. Josh was with Bobby they were not talking; Josh had a canteen out and was handing it over to Bobby. Oh yeah, they had brought water, he needed to drink too, with the excitement he had not ate or drank anything. After seeing them drink he felt how parched his throat was, he took out his own canteen and drank, but not as much as his body probably wanted, they still had the other two floors, ration and conserve would be a good idea.

“Hey Josh, Bobby how you guys holding up?” He noticed they looked tired, while they were not exerting themselves physically, the way he understood it was that the magic would take its toll on the users. And they had Mana that they expended that would need to regenerate. His action points unlike their mana seemed to regenerate a bit faster.

“Tired, really tired.” Bobby was seating leaning against the cavern wall eyes closed, Josh had been standing up but was now sitting as well, Pepe sat next to him.

“Yeah, this stuff is tiring, will have to get used to it, hopefully as times goes by it will get easier.” Josh took another drink, “I don’t think I want us to do the other side, lots of work and I want to see what is beyond that cavern, hopefully the boss for this floor.” Pepe hoped the same he wanted to see what it had in store for them.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Pepe was pumped to get going, Josh had called the break over, and they were up and moving to the large cave exit. They were going to ignore the creatures on the left side of the cavern. Pepe smiling walked on, ready to get to the boss. Maybe he should not be as excited as he was, but he could not help himself.

The move from the big chamber and through the exit cave was maybe fifty yards, they stopped at the entrance, they had zero clue what would trigger the next encounter. This other cavern was smaller than the one they had just left, directly across from them another exit. It was dark and they could not see through the darkness, it was quite high and wide, he himself would not be able to touch the top, maybe Josh or Manuel could touch the top if they jumped with their arms stretched out.

Around the chamber itself Pepe noticed a set of mushroom steps sticking out of the wall going up, one set on the left the other on the right wall, and four much larger mushrooms towards the center evenly spaced to each other. The stalk of the four center mushrooms like giant tree trunks, it would probably take four of them reaching hands to be able to surround the stalk. The bottom of the caps could be seen up high, twenty feet up, likely another five feet above would be the top of the cap.

They stepped into the chamber and before taking the third step in they received a notification.

Warning…. Boss Encounter Triggered.

Boss Encounter will commence in 60 seconds.

Please ensure preparations are complete within this timeframe.

“Alright everyone, get ready we will need to move these things around a little see what our best position will be. From what we saw of the little ones there are some kind of mechanics involved with every fight.”

Pepe’s heart started to hammer, they spread out, similar formation to what they had done before. Manuel moved up, Pepe went to the right and behind, Michelle on the left, Erin to his right, Josh left of Michelle. It was an inverted V formation. Bobby would stay behind and close enough to heal but far enough to be less of a target.

He looked around saw everyone ready to face the thing that would be coming out. The countdown was down to ten seconds his heart started to raise a little faster, eager with anticipation. Then it was down to zero, movement could be seen on the large exit opposite to them. Smaller shroom creatures came out, two reds and two greens, they aligned themselves on right and left one of each color on either side.

Pepe saw the boss come out the top of it's head reaching the top of cave it was exiting, it was another mushroom, but to call it a mushroom would be an understatement, it was a mushroom on steroids, it was huge. Just like it’s friends it did not have eyes, ears, or a nose, but it did come with a mouth. A very large mouth, it could easily fit Pepe in that mouth, just like its mouth it had large pointy teeth, very pointy. ‘What large teeth you have Grandma’ for some reason he thought about the story of Red Riding hood and the wolf as he saw those teeth.

His daggers would serve as a small toothpick, even Manuel’s longer sword would just be big enough to serve as a large toothpick. How in the world where they supposed to defeat this thing? Since it was much larger the mode of movement was six large legs sticking out from the bottom of the stalk. Its legs went up, bent at the knee then came back down, like an insect leg. They were also skinny, he did not think they were strong enough to carry the monstrosity, but it moved just fine. Another one of those things to do with how this world broke the rules.

“Maria what can you tell me about this boss?” He needed more information, and the only source would be Maria.

Monster Type: Plantoid

Monster Name: Boss Shroomy

Abilities: Unknown

Difficulty Level: Medium

Boss Shroomy is a very dedicated boss; he protects his domain against any intruders, detest shroom on shroom violence unless strictly necessary, and is a big proponent of Shroom Unions. He likes long walks in the caves and his favorite color is blue.

Boss Shroomy seemed like a very caring shroom; ah well what one did for the lootz. Well, nothing really of much use in that blurb, I guess if he wanted to give Shroomy a gift it could be something blue. He had been hoping for some information that would help them in the fight.

It had long, very long skinny arms but no hands, they looked like long vines, the shroom boss vine like arms waved in the air, maybe it was saying hi to his dinner. Pepe was not going to stand and be his dinner, he saw the timer slowly ticking away, they had to come up with a plan and now.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Manuel get ready, will play this by ear, we don’t really have a choice.” That was it? That was the great plan? It was something like Pepe would come up with, he was expecting Josh to come up with a great master plan to defeat this thing. By ear it would be then, he felt ready, he hoped he was.

Warning 10 seconds until engagement commences.

10, 9, 8…. 3, 2, 1, 0

Commencing engagement

It felt like what you see in the movies or shows when the doctor tells the patient we are going to put you to sleep please count back from ten. Instead of Pepe going to sleep his adrenalin spiked, his heart beating faster, felt like it would burst out of his chest. His reflexes sped up, felt other things slow down around him. Manuel went forward taunted the boss, Pepe saw the thing open its mouth, and roar, it actually roared, he saw spittle flying from its mouth as it roared. Its long red tongue, moving with the strength of the roar.

Seconds after it’s roar it picked up it's pace running at Manuel, it reached his cousin and pushed him back three feet. Manuel had his feet planted his body forward and his shield ready to take the impact, he did not topple over. “This thing hits like a dump truck. But I got it for now.” The thing towered over his cousin, how he had it, Pepe did not really understand, but if he said he had it, then he had it.

The boss backed up momentarily saw its prey had not toppled over as it probably expected, it seemed confused that the little thing in front of it stood. Its long skinny arms started to move like waves then one came forward, he saw his cousin raise his shield to block the incoming slap of the whip like arm. No, the little meat thing in front of it was still standing, the other arm started to wave as well, then came forward, and again it was blocked. It continued with the whip action of each arm against its opponent speeding up every time.

Pepe heard the slap of the whip arms against Manuel’s shield, it was loud, and he could only imagine the speed and strength behind each slap. He was impressed by his cousin ability to keep up with the thing, even going in with his sword as he blocked the slaps. This all happened within the first few seconds of the fight, while it seemed to be slower to Pepe’s senses and likely to Michelle’s and Erin’s neither Bobby nor Josh experienced it in that way.

Pepe looked for the helpers around the Shroom Boss, they had not attacked when the boss attacked, merely stayed behind him, why were they just standing there? He was not sure how they communicated, maybe some form of hive mind like insects. When they had fought the smaller ones, they had been in sync the whole time, but he heard no words to indicate that they spoke to each other.

Pepe went around just behind the last set of legs on the right, saw Michelle position herself on the left and both started to damage the creature. He saw his dagger making contact, the shrooms soft skin parting to every one of his dagger’s slashes. He waited a few seconds before doing more, saw no regeneration like what they had experienced with the smaller ones. So, the boss had no self-healing capabilities that was a good thing. He redoubled his efforts to do as much damage as possible.

His friends for their part were doing the same, he saw the boss marked by Erin’s skill, the mark showing on his GUI. Arrows flying in and sticking out of the creature sides, he presumed Josh was doing his magic spells on the other side. Finally, after a time they got their first notification.

Boss Shroomy health at 75%

Pepe was ecstatic to see that the thing was taking damage, this was going to be easy. They could just pull out all the stops and burn it all the way until it was down. He was so happy to see the notification, he smiled to himself looked up a little and saw it. Red and Green mist was coming down from both sides, oh no not that, the follow up message made the earlier elation change to a worry. This was going to be a lot harder than he had thought.

[Explant Regeneration] & [Damage Up] cast on Shroomy and his allies.

Boss Shroomy health has risen back to 100%, Regen is in affect for 60s, Damage increased by 15% for 30s.

He could not really see his other friends, but Michelle on the other side, saw her grimaced when the notification popped up. What worried him even more was the second one, he knew about the Regeneration healing affects but the Damage Up buff was from the green mist. He was glad they had not allowed the shrooms to use the skill during the other fights.

“Pepe, Erin, go take care of the ones on the right. Michelle you, and I will take care of the ones on the left. We won’t be able to win this fight if we don’t take them down first.” They needed to do this fast, if they gave them any time, the shrooms would surely attack them. The Damage Up buff was active for all of them not just the boss. He and the rest could handle some hits but not many, this would only distract Bobby and get Manuel hurt as he would need to send some heals their way.

Pepe turned saw his targets, seconds later a mark appeared on the green, “Got you, Erin once you jump on that one, I will get the red.” He just wanted a little coordination before he went and screw stuff up. He saw his friend land on the green, he was in the air coming down seconds later landing on top of the reds cap smashing it and stopping all actions.

He hit the ground and turned to the Green, both he and Erin began to take it down, waited for the notification that it was down. He saw it come through and both turned to the Red, seconds later it popped, while they had damaged it, they would need to do a second round. “I got it.” He went up into the air once more, landed on red then reset to burn it down. They saw the notification that one of the others was down, got the notification that theirs was down.

He turned to see if the one that was still alive was squashed, ready to assist the other group. He saw Michelle come down, before she landed it had already moved. Not only was it up and buffed it was also loose, the thing had gone underneath Michelle as she landed, just missing it. He saw it run around to the left of the boss, he had no way to see if it was going for Bobby or Josh. Everything was moving too fast, he heard Bobby yell in pain, his friend was hurt. The yell and the notification that followed made it worse.

Bobby has received critical damage 75% of HP depleted. 10/39 HP

Bobby has been afflicted by [Stun] for 90s.

That was mucho malo they could not have their healer down for that long, both Pepe and Erin ran behind Shroomy to try and help. As he came around, he saw Bobby down on the ground he was moving a little. Michelle had already smashed the loose shroom and was starting to damage it to take it out, Erin sending arrows flying. A whole minute and a half, they had no heals at all for that time, the next notification was even worse.

Manuel has received damage 53/59 HP

He saw the notification for the last shroom helper being out of the fight, then another message, another hit on his cousin. While the damage was minor, he was worried for him, at least the helpers were down, once Bobby was back up, he could heal. There was still more than a minute for Bobby to be ready to do anything, he had to both heal himself and heal his cousin at that point.

He saw Josh picking up Bobby, he could do nothing on that front, he needed to get back to doing damage, his cousin was receiving a beating while they waited. He ran back behind Shroomy and continued to output as much damage as possible, Michelle also doing the same.

“How is Bobby Josh!” While it was not quite time he was worried for his friend.

“His fine, just keep going, I got Bobby.” He could see no smoke or smell of freshly burned mushroom meaning that both Bobby and Josh were out of the equation, they needed Josh’s spell damage, they were down to three out of four damage dealers right now. All this would do was prolong the fight, it would not give them any advantage to prolong it at all.

The time passed slowly, and he could do nothing else to help his friend, but waited out and what he was currently doing, he saw another hit notification for Manuel.

Manuel has received damage 40/59 HP

While it may not seem like much, his cousin was taking a beating, he was glad his cousin could hold his own with the giant mushroom. He on the other hand would likely be dead by now, not only did Manuel have higher HP, he also had damage mitigation skills that came with being a Tank. Pepe did not feel jealous, he liked doing lots of damage and not getting hit.

“Bobby is up and able to stand on his own, he is almost ready!” Josh reported to the rest of the group, Michelle could see them, but the others could not. Pepe was glad to hear his friend was up and about, they would be dead in the water if their healer went down. He was not eager to find out what the death penalties were that Regi had alluded to in his explanation, not that he actually said what it was, just that they would not like it.

Pepe finally saw some smoke followed by the smell of cooked shroom a cheesy smell, sort of like the way his funky feet smelled after a soccer match. At least Josh was damaging it with his spells, enough worrying they had this. Alright Shroomy your butt is ours, did Shrooms have butts? Why was he asking stupid questions right now? ‘Head in the game Pepe!’ he would leave the deep philosophical butt question for later.

The notification came that he was down sixty five percent of his HP, yay was all Pepe could think at that moment. He kept on going his friends doing the same, the notification that he was at fifty percent came in soon after. After he saw the fifty percent notification, two things happened, the timer on Bobby’s Stun ailment was up and Shroomy stopped wailing at Manuel. Pepe was relieved that his friend was well again and that for the moment the boss had stopped, gave him and his friends time to catch their breath.

For five seconds the boss did nothing, Pepe and the rest continued to output damage during this time. He started to move again, but not to attack Manuel, Pepe saw the huge form start to turn to the right. Saw Michelle jumping out of the way the legs would have crushed her if she did not move. He stopped to see why it was doing this, backed off as it kept on turning.

It stopped as it did a one eighty, started to move back towards the exit cave, wait, did they beat it, it still had fifty percent of its HP. He saw it stop in front of its fallen brethren, one of its vine arms going down towards one of the dead shrooms. He saw it pick it up, then deposit into its mouth, hear it chewing, the sounds of teeth ripping, and chewing were not pleasant. Saw it pick up the other mushroom and start the same process, he could not see if he did the same with the one on it’s left side, but he presumed that it had.

It started to turn back towards the left, it moved over to the last of its cohorts and ate it as well. What the heck was it doing? Why would it eat its own friends, seconds later they knew, another notification came up letting them know what was happening.

King Shroomy has regained health, at 65% of max health.

Warning! Warning! Warning!

King Shroomy metamorphosis commencing.

Metamorphosis completes in 15 seconds.

15, 14… 3, 2, 1, 0… Metamorphosis complete.

Second Phase commencing.

Pepe really hated that shroom right now, why couldn’t it just die and drop the lootz! What does it have in store for us now? He saw no difference in the shroom until he looked up, saw what had happened with the little guys he had eaten. Atop the big cap they were sticking up, he had consumed them then made them grow on himself. Why Shroomy, why? You’re supposed to be against Shroom-on-Shroom violence, you liar!

“Alright reset, everyone we have to keep him contained as before. Manuel do your stuff!”

Yes, it was time to end this, Pepe was tired of this bosses’ cheats, he was supposed to be the one with the cheats, where was his cheats?! He heard Manuel perform his taunt, Boss Shroomy running to attack his cousin.

They started to pour out the damage, saw the notification that he was at sixty percent. He saw the shroom stop its attack, then saw the red mist, a crap, so that is why he had eaten his friends, he was self-healing and self-buffing. Shortly after the red mist they saw the green mist. It was followed by the whip like arms coming back then forward at an even faster speed than before.

The notification came through, he read it saw his cousin had taken damage. At the speed the arms were moving with that last attack it was likely that his cousin was only able to block one of them. They needed to suppress the caps that had grown atop Shroomy.

He turned to Michelle saw that she was trying hard, but also the concern on her face, “Michelle lets go up.” He pointed to the big mushrooms in the center, he saw her nod, they were on the same page. “Josh we are going up, we need to stomp the buffers.” Pepe ran behind him, he saw Michelle run the other way. “Manuel move him towards the center!”

He ran up on the right side, got to the top of the stair and began jumping then a hard jump to one of the big mushrooms. He landed saw Michelle land on the opposite one, it was not quite in place, but his cousin was moving it, they would be ready. As he saw the big shroom in place he looked over at Michelle and nodded. They both began to jump up and down trampoline style once again, “[Jump]” he triggered the skill and down he went, across from him Michelle was coming down as well.

He landed on the red cap sticking out of Shroomy’s head then jumped off, ran back to the stairs across as before then he was coming back down to land on top of the green that was up. He was glad that he was not afraid of heights, if he had been they would have been hosed. There was little to no time to think further. He started in on Shroomy once again, he felt tired, his arms felt like jelly, but there was not time to rest.

He heard Erin from behind him, “Going up!” that was good thought Pepe, we need to make sure that he does not use the skills again as soon as the reds and greens popped up. It would also be good for Erin to shoot from up there, it was technically a better vantage point. He saw a mark go up on Shroomy, and then a rain of arrows.

Notification came through that he was down to fifty percent, the boss stopped again and attempted to perform his mist skill, it did not work. Pepe could clearly see that the big shroom was confused, it tried again as it had not returned to attack his cousin. ‘Too bad Shroomy!’ He redoubled his effort on his attacks.

“Michelle go up, just in case!” Josh had the right of it, better safe than sorry, and his damage output was probably slightly higher than Michelle’s, and likely he would not do as well from up top. Pepe, Erin, and Michelle were probably the best options with their higher Agility scores. While Josh could rain down spells from up high, it would probably be harder for him to go up in the first place.

Pepe just kept on wailing at him, he saw the notification for forty-five, then forty percent. He saw Erin jump on top of Shroomy, soon as he saw that he ran up the side of the stairs on his side. Saw Erin quickly run to the other side as Michelle was still on her way down. Pepe was already in position, he jumped down on the green that was up. Saw Erin come down from the other side, everyone was back on the ground damaging once again.

The notification for thirty percent came across, then they were down to twenty-five, twenty, fifteen, it was truly time to end this. Finally, it was at five percent, it had taken a long time, he was exhausted, while the adrenalin had done its thing, he was on the downslope.

Congratulation you have defeated Boss Shroomy!

Floor 1 complete.

Ding Thief Level Up

He was happy that he had Leveled, if he had leveled his friends had gone up to six, he may have been tired, but he was excited about this. Now where is my loot? He saw the body of Big Shroomy start to sink into the ground like if it was just melting. Kind of crazy that they did that but who was he to complain, he would not want to be part of the clean up crew for the dungeon if the creatures did not disappear like that.

At soon as the boss disappeared, it was like someone had turned on the lights for the exit cave, further in the cave on top of a table, altar, Pepe saw what he had wanted the whole time. Two chests were waiting for them, yes finally the loot, why else do these dungeons? Sure, the experience was good, but it was about the loot drops.

But he was too tired to move right now, they needed a little bit of down time, they may have been doing what looked like a video game but unlike one where your character never got tired, you got tired. They all just sat on the ground where they had been standing. They had defeated the boss for the first floor and that was cause for celebration, and they were getting the loot and that too was cause for celebration. But he heard no whoop or cheers of joy from any of them, all he heard was his own hard breathing and that of his friends.

No one moved for fifteen minutes, they just rested, ate, and drank form their canteens. If this were a story, no one would want to hear how he was tired, they would not care, but dang it he was tired, and this was his story. He got up and stretched, his arms hurt, his back hurt, he wanted some good food from Mr. Rowen’s Inn, he bet they were cooking something delicious. He heard his stomach rumble in agreement, but food would have to wait.

He started to make his way to the exit where he could see the chest waiting for them, waiting for him, at least he hoped that was the case, like in games not everyone would get loot. His friends were not saying anything but were also moving towards the exit, all had their eyes on the chest. All this hard work and now it would pay off, he really hoped that he would get something.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Settle down, will open it up in a second.” Josh taking charge, Pepe was so eager if they made him wait any longer, he would just move people out of the way and open the damn thing himself. It was the one on the left that they opened first. There was a light as Josh opened the chest, when it was fully open the light died out, he pulled out a nice-looking leather chest piece and a set of trousers that looked like a pair. Both seemed to be made of some soft leather and a muted green color. What they were wearing, he, Erin and Michelle were the same basic grey colored trousers and top, the beginner set.

Loot Information

Name: Chest Piece of the Cunning Tiger (M)

Stats: +1 AGI, +2% Attack

Leg Guard of the Cunning Tiger (M)

Stats: +1 CHA, +1% Attack when using Daggers

Role: Thief, Ranger

“Yes!” Pepe could not help himself; they would need to figure it out both he and Erin could use it, but the Leg Guard was aimed at him all the way, the Chest Piece might go to Erin though, he was alright sharing.

“Will figure it out in town, lets look and see what the other chest has.” Josh opened it and they got the light show once again, Pepe saw Josh reach in then took his hand back out, his face even got a little red, “um Michelle can you come and look please.”

He backed up and allowed her to come forward, Pepe saw a look of confusion on her face, he was confused as well, why did she need to look? She looked and reached in and brought out what was there, it was what could only look like a swimsuit. No one said anything, no one laughed, you could hear a pin drop in the silence. He saw Michelle’s face it was very red; it almost matched the color of her hair; man was she mad.

“What the hell, first the dress, now this, I am going to murder those two nodes when I see them.” She put the ‘armor’ away in her bag. She would get to bring her complains to the two nodes in questions very soon. She turned on the party, “not a word, not one word from any of you.” Pepe could not look her in the eye, he noticed that neither could his friends.

Pepe looked at the Stats instead on his GUI about the armor she had put away:

Loot Information

Name: Chest Piece of the Cunning Tiger (F)

Stats: +1 AGI, +2% Attack

Leg Guard of the Cunning Tiger (F)

Stats: +1 CHA, +1% Attack when using Daggers

Role: Thief, Ranger

It was identical to the male version they had just gotten on the other chest. He did not want to be the Nodes once she got a hold of them. Sure, she would have looked great in the swimsuit like armor if this was a beach resort or the beach, or the river they had gone swimming in, but he was not stupid he was not going to bring that up.

Once they had gathered the loot and had closed the chest an outline made from light of a rectangle could be seen on the wall behind the chest. In less than a second a door appeared where none had been before above the door a sign that read ‘EXIT.’ The door a red door not unlike what you would find at a house, the knob a simple silver or steel color. Joshed walked behind opened it and behind the door was the locker room they had exit at the beginning of the dungeon, or maybe it was another locker room, who knew?
