Apocalypse Monster

Chapter 021: Entering the Dungeon Tower

Ayumi hugs Erina, trying to calm her down from all that she has lived so far, which is eight days after the world changed. He also gave his favorite drink that he never once gave to others.

"They've entered the Dungeon." Nathan looked at the Map on the interface screen in front of him, which was one of the Passive Skills.

Natan looked up at Erina. "Are you alone? Where are uncle and aunt?"

Ayumi was aghast when she heard these words, she sobbed and began to cry again. "A-Dad, and Mother, they were both killed. The two of them, trying to protect me from mo-monsters." His voice was very slow as a whisper.

Natan fell silent and felt guilty for asking that question, which was appropriate not to be asked from seeing what happened. Still, he was curious. "How can you join the Black Eagle Guild?"

Erina looked up slowly as she lowered the head covering from her yellow jacket, revealing a dull-looking shoulder-length black hair, and there was a fishy smell coming from the dried blood. "Erina was found while scavenging for food in the trash, and was taken to work, for a fee ..."

"To survive, Erina did. But ..." Erina did not continue her words and remained silent with both hands clenched, trembling over her thighs.

Natan and Ayumi also did not push Erina further to answer. Both of them chose to be quiet, and waited until Erina was willing to answer them herself. For a few minutes, Erina finally reopened her voice.

"The food given is only one packet of moldy bread, that too for one day. If the work is not suitable or does not meet the kouta, blows and lashes are the result, then not given food or drink for one day," continued Erina who quivered in fear with a trembling voice.

Natan who heard that could not contain her anger, this was more terrible than the treatment Ayumi received at the Military Base. He stood up from his seat which was on the floor, with a faint blue-colored Mana emanating from him.

[Getting Intimidation Skill Lv.01 (Active)

[With how to circulate Mana using Mana Control to get out of the body. This skill can hold motion and suppress anyone whose VIT or INT is lower than the user]

When he found that he had gained a new skill, he calmed down and sat back down. There are more important issues and they should be resolved as soon as possible. "I've killed a man, two men."

Ayumi and Erina were stunned upon hearing that, never expecting that their gentle sister had ever killed a human.

"To-Why?—"

Natan raised her hand to stop Ayumi. "The group of ten attacked first, and surely I escaped while throwing some knives, which happened to be stuck in their heads ..."

"Again, in a chaotic world now. There are no rules, the strong survive, and kill or be killed. Then if I had acted too late, Erina would no longer be able to see the sunlight." He must teach about the present world, no more words of mercy to anyone who tries to harm.

"I didn't teach you guys to kill, but I will finish off the Black Eagle Guild that entered the Dungeon!"

Ayumi and Erina fell silent without making a sound, what their sister said was true, and if they remained silent, then they would be doomed. But, it was still too cruel to kill another human being.

Natan looked at the two, waiting for their decision. Until finally he heard a rumbling sound coming from Erina's stomach, making him laugh a little. He took out dozens of breads of various flavors, biscuits, mineral water, fruits, stir-fried meat, and rice.

"Eat, two hours from now we will enter the Dungeon."

Natan still did not know how Erina possessed the Job Paladin, even though one of her strength stats was none that reached 50 Points. This makes no sense, unless there is a reason why you can get the Job.

Erina shed tears of happiness upon seeing the many foods that were in front of her. Without lingering, he began to pick up dishes and eat food, as well as snacks that were on the floor.

Natan smiled warmly looking at her two sisters who were eating voraciously. If my uncle and aunt were still alive, maybe the atmosphere here would be even more festive.

Tens of minutes later, Erina was already completely full and drank a few bottles of mineral water.

Natan takes Kuro out of his shadow, and lets Ayumi and Erina ride on him, while he decides to run.

"Erina, today we will raise your level within the Dungeon. Once you reach level one hundred, then we will make a team. It can make it after you reach the thirties, but our level is too far away" said Natan who ran next to Kuro.

"Good, Brother!" Erina was excited again. He no longer grieves because he can gather again with friends and Natan who is considered his own brother, even though he has just lost his parents.

Natan smiled warmly as she saw one of her sisters getting excited again.

A few minutes later, finally the group of three humans with one animal had arrived in front of the 55-story Dungeon Tower.

The way to enter the Dungeon Tower itself was not by opening the twin doors made of glass, but by passing through the Blue-colored Light Portal in front of them.

Without lingering, the four of them entered the Light Portal connecting the outer world with the Dungeon Tower.

Dungeon Tower

Natan, Ayumi, Erina and Kuro were already on the ground floor of the multi-storey apartment. What he saw on the ground floor was a spacious room, the floor was black with dried up patches of blood. He did not see an elevator, but only a spiral staircase covered in red cloth.

"Did the structure of the building change after becoming a Dungeon? There was no elevator, and instead it created a fairly large spiral staircase" said Natan who pulled the blade. He turned his head up looking up. "Isn't the top open? That's what it looks like from the internet, but now there's a floor divider."

Natan walks up the stairs first and is followed by her sisters riding Kuro. Their formation was somewhat chaotic, if only Erina was level 100, she would let Erina walk behind her, then Ayumi and Kuro were guarding in the back row.

When he was on the second floor, he also did not see any rooms that should have been the apartment there should be another room. All he saw here was a vast dark room, with pillars like concrete electricity poles in the middle of which there was a torch used for lighting.

"The monsters here have also been wiped out. There was no way the level of monsters would increase by one each floor, and there was no way that it would also be ten levels. If taken with an average, one floor should raise five levels ..." Natan muttered while stroking his chin with his head bowed.

"The average level of the Black Eagle Guild was fifty, and by their numbers, as well as the time since entering the Dungeon Tower. At least they were already on the sixth or seventh floor."

Natan looked up, and continued on their way up the stairs towards the next floor. He was not too hasty to go monster hunting, as he was certain that the monsters in this Dungeon Tower would belong to him.

Nathan looked back. "Are you two scared? Maybe we'll meet hundreds of monsters."

"No! Ayumi is strong!"

Erina was silent for a moment not answering him directly like Ayumi. "E-Erina is still level one, ta-but, Erina will help as much as possible!" He snorted excitedly and raised both of his clenched hands in front of his chest.

Natan gave a small nod, then gave both of them strawberry and chocolate flavored milk boxes, each favorite. He also gives two jars of sausage to Kuro.

If anyone saw them relaxing inside the Dungeon, they would definitely be considered insane for doing something like this inside a dangerous place. But not with the thought of Natan, he brought the little girl who was his sister, he should always pay attention to the two of them to keep the mental both of them from being disturbed.

Natan must look after, encourage, observe, assist, comfort and pay attention to both. It is hard, but this is his duty as a brother, and a reward for the good of his parents.
