Chapter 144: Already reached the fifth break point
"I am here!" Damon hollered at the timid little girl waiting for him by the poison dungeon. Even before he arrived, Arya looked like a total mess, nervously fidgeting about with some sort of herbs in her hands. As soon as she saw him, she instantly dropped everything and waved awkwardly.
Damon laughed at the clumsy girl and patted her head. "Sorry, I got held up somewhere and was late to our meeting. I will make it up to you."
"Ah.. no problem." Arya quickly shook her head.
"Heh. You are too nice." Damon patted her head. "You need the drops from this dungeon, right? Or also the dungeon clear achievement?"
"Ah... both. I would have gone in myself... It’s just that there are snakes..." The girl’s face changed even at the mention of the word.
Damon could only laugh at the little idiot. "Alright. Let’s go." He invited the girl to a party, and the two of them stepped inside the dungeon.
Once inside, Damon immediately took the lead, clearing out poison creatures with casual ease. Every swing of his weapon sent monsters flying, while Arya did her best to keep up. She was an earth mage, and it helped her tag a lot of creatures with a single ground-shaking skill.
After her tag, Damon swept up the poisonous spiders, worms, snakes, and everything else that came that way. In the blink of an eye, the entire dungeon was cleared, even the hidden boss, two mini bosses, and one final boss taken down.
Damon grinned as he sheathed his weapon, dusting off his hands as though the whole affair had been just another stroll in the park. Arya, on the other hand, looked stunned, her eyes wide as she tried to process what had just happened. She’d never seen anyone clear a dungeon so fast or so thoroughly.
"Wow," she breathed, her voice trembling a little. "That was... amazing."
Damon chuckled, tilting his head and giving her a playful smirk. "What, you thought I’d let those little bugs slow us down? Please. I’d be embarrassed if I couldn’t clear a place like this before lunch."
