Before the crisis reached the skies of Edevin, the Dungeon the Dire Hammer members were in was the first place to be graced with the misfortuned presence.

Riley and Dexter went on to grab the kids, picking them up abruptly and running towards the stairs to make their way out of the dungeon with Caren following behind.

"Riley..."

Dexter called out to Riley sounding excessively worried and on edge.

"yes I know....., something really bad is happening in the Dungeon. We have to get out of here as fast as we can".

Riley answered hurrying himself up the stairs.

Being the A rank they are, the three had detected a shift in the Dungeon's atmosphere, a shift they knew should not be taken lightly.

They have no idea exactly what was going to happen, but they were not going to stick around in a place as unpredictable as a Dungeon, especially not with the kids with them.

The best they can do for now, is to take the kids back to the city and then come back later to investigate the happenings in the Dungeon.

The three hot on their heels, ran up the stairs going as fast as their feet could take them. They were only about seventeen stairs short to get to the end of it when the whole stairs started to collapse before their very eyes.

They made made a jump for it wanting to cross over the falling stairs to the other side, but they could not make it like they intended to.

With the collapsing stairs, they continued to fall deep down. Riley and Dexter each wrapped their bodies around the kids they were holding, to prevent them from being harmed when they fall to the ground.

They continued to fall for a while, and when they were almost to the ground, Dexter stretched out his hand to grab unto Caren. She as a white mage has less durability compared to Dexter and Riley.

The chances of her not surviving the fall is high, and Dexter with the highest durability was the only one with a high chance of surviving a fall this deep while holding unto Dana and Caren.

Riley and Dexter about to crash land to the ground, with Dexter using his back to break his fall. Riley drawing out his sword from the sheath and sticking it to the wall to halt his fall just before he got to the ground.

"are you guys okay".

Riley asked, removing his sword from the wall and slowly falling to the ground with Nadea in his hand carried like an hand baggage.

"barely".

Dexter grunted out, releasing his hold on Dana and Caren so he could rest his body on the ground, to recuperate from the fall.

"you know you could have done as I did and dip your long pointy nails on the wall, then you wouldn't have fallen to the ground".



"I would need one of my hands on the wall to do that, but it was too busy covering for Caren and Dana".

Dexter grunted out once more, pacing his breath with his face looking above.

"at least he still survived. I can't imagine myself falling from an height like that, and coming out unscathed".

"i am not completely unscathed. Your weight resting on my arm when we landed caused the joints in my shoulder to dislocate".

"you will be fine, you can just pop it back together as you always do".

"damn I hate you. Talking about reconnecting a broken shoulder like it's some kids play".

"exactly. You are not a kid, but a man".

Dexter did not have the leisure of giving Caren further replies, the pain throbbing in his shoulder was getting worse.

"ignore her Dexter, you know how she is always like. Come on, let me help you up".

Riley walked over to where Dexter was laying. He extended his hand out to him, wanting to help him up.

Dexter without hesitation, stretched out the hand that wasn't dislocated to grab unto Riley's.

"damn it really hurts".

He says, groaning even more as Riley pulls him up. The bone in the shoulder could be seen stretching his skin outward, a scene that had the kids turning their face away from it.

​ Dexter held unto his dislocated shoulder with his other arm and popped the bones back to where it should be. The bones crackled, and Dexter released a long sigh into the air.

"stop being too dramatic".

"God I hate you. I save you and this is the thanks I get in return uhuh?".

Dexter said looking at Caren with ungrateful eyes and regrets for saving her.

"thank you for saving me uncle".

"no worries kid. You don't have to thank me, it's my duty to not put you in harms way".

Dana moved over to Dexter, extending towards him her gratitude for saving his life. Part of the reason why she did that, was so Dexter wouldn't consider her as ungrateful like he did Caren.

Nadea also followed through with Dana's gesture and said her thanks to Riley for saving her.

"you see that Caren..., that is how to say a thank you".

Dexter pointed at Caren, using the kid to criticize her choice of words after she had just been saved.

"what in the hell is this?....."

Dexter's and Caren's attention were called over to what Riley was referring to. They moved over to where Riley was, and stared their gaze in the direction he was pointing to.

The three were speechless in the face of what they were looking at, their expression being one of amusement with a mix of fear in it.

"do you feel it".

Riley turned his head, facing Dexter to be sure they are both on the same page concerning what was in front of them.

"i feel you well enough".

"what about you Caren".

"sound and clear".

The three had confirmed their thoughts to be in the same direction, their next course of action was already clear to them without being told.

"kids, move back, things are about to get real dangerous from here on out".





Riley stretched his hand backwards, indicating to the kids to go to the back. He wanted them in a safe distance so they won't get caught up in what they are about to do.

"Caren....."

"already on it. Job Skill activation, Grace of the Gods".

On Riley's command, Caren casted her buff type skill on Riley and Dexter. Their bodies started to glow, responding to the buff's effect.

"you Ready".

"you better count on it".

Riley asked Dexter, raising his sword up and putting it closer to his face as he continues to fixate his gaze on the object before him. Dexter clenched his fist, raising it up while also fixating his gaze on the object.

Caren moved over to where the kids were standing, to keep them safe from what Riley and Dexter were doing.

The both of them turned their head to look at each other once more before charging at the object.

When they got to a suitable range, Riley swung down his weapon with the tip emanating a white bright light as it struck down on the object.

Dexter's fist thrusted forward, concentrated force within it resulting in pressure in the form of wind being produced out and banging the object.

The two with no hesitation, sent their attacks at the red cocoon beating like an heartbeat, with lights blinking rapidly from inside it, with the intention of destroying it, and killing whatever lifeform is inside of it before it hatches.
