Chapter 324: DUNGEON GODS
Chapter 324: DUNGEON GODS
KWON HOJUN blinked, confused.
He was pretty sure that they were kicked out of the dungeon where Lee Sarang was fighting a kraken-like monster.
But, in just the blink of an eye, he found himself in another dungeon.
The dungeon this time was a floating island. And there were other, smaller floating islands around the one they were on.
Kwon Hojun was scared, but he was relieved that he still had his companions with him.
However...
"Lee Sarang isn’t here," Kang Dabin said, clicking his tongue. "That dungeon boss kicked us out..."
"I know it’s bad that Esper Lee Sarang was left in the dungeon alone, but I think it’s better off this way," Lucca said. "We’ll only get in her way. She won’t be able to focus on the fight because of us, so I’m glad that the kraken kicked us out."
"Yeah, but don’t let your guard down," Gu Inwoo said. "This is another dungeon, after all."
Right.
As soon as Gu Inwoo said that, they heard a sound similar to flapping wings.
And, well, a huge shadow fell on them— prompting all of them to look up.
That was when they saw it.
"A-An angel?"
"No, Jaeha-ya," Gu Inkyu said while shaking his head. "This is a dungeon— no angels should be here."
Correct.
However, Kwon Hojun understood Kim Jaeha’s confusion.
After all, the monster— that looked like a man— was suspended in the air and had huge angel wings on his back. Moreover, the monster wore a white-and-gold robe that made him look holy.
Ah, there was one more thing.
This monster has a pretty face.
"Kwon Hojun."
Oh?
Kwon Hojun flinched when the monster called his name perfectly.
He sounds like a native Korean— just like the kraken monster earlier!
"Do you want to be my human pet?"
Before Kwon Hojun could even respond, he found himself being surrounded by the adults.
In particular, Kang Dabin and Gu Inkyu— the high-ranking Espers with them— stood in front of him protectively.
"Only natural S-Class Espers are allowed here."
The "angel" then raised his hand, creating a strong gust of wind.
Dust immediately hit Kwon Hojun’s eyes, causing him to shut them tight.
And, after a few moments...
"Kwon Hojun, I’ll ask again: do you want to be my human pet?"
Huh?
When Kwon Hojun opened his eyes, he realized that he was already alone on the floating island...
... and the "angel" was standing in front of him, his wings folded behind his back.
"Don’t make me repeat my question thrice, child."
What was the question again?
Ah, right.
"No, I have no intention of being your human pet."
"Even if it means fighting me to death?"
"Yes, I’d rather die than become your human pet."
"What a shame," the "angel" said. "I’d love to have a natural S-Class Esper as a pet I could use to fight other pets."
Kwon Hojun felt the monster’s bloodlust, hence his body moved on its own.
He jumped away from the "angel."
At the same time, his Status Window popped up in front of him.
[Esper Kwon Hojun has engaged in a
What?
Kwon Hojun scoffed.
Why does a monster have a human-sounding name...?
***
TSK.
Jin Sooin clicked her tongue when Bambi and Ryu Sungbin suddenly disappeared.
However, that wasn’t her biggest worry.
As soon as the two disappeared, she found herself inside what seemed like a dungeon.
It was a dungeon that had nothing but rocks.
"Jin Sooin, do you want to be my human pet?"
What the hell?
A stone golem, probably around 10 meters tall, was talking to Jin Sooin in Korean— and the monster even got her name pronounced correctly!
But maybe she shouldn’t have been surprised.
Bambi is a monster, after all.
"You asked if I want to be your human pet?" Jin Sooin smirked. "I’m done with that shit, so the answer is no, you damn ugly monster."
"Then are you agreeing to fight me to death?"
"Yes, and fuck you."
"How vulgar."
It was funny how the monster reacted that way to Jin Sooin’s cursing.
Anyway, her Status Window popped up in front of her.
[Esper Jin Sooin has engaged in a
What?
Rocky?
Jin Sooin burst out laughing. "What a stupid name!"
However, her laughter didn’t last long as she was hit by a boulder that flew her way in her blind spot.
If her body wasn’t covered in Mana, she would have been crushed to death already.
Moreover, if it was just physical strength, then...
I’m even stronger than Ki Gayoon.
Jin Sooin cracked her knuckles. "Let’s start again."

OH, I’M ALONE?
17 was relieved to find himself alone in a dungeon that looked like a normal beach villa.
I’m glad that Jericho and Yuno weren’t dragged with me.
Anyway, the villa had a swimming pool— and a naked woman soaked in the said pool.
Red hair, pale skin, a figure that some women would probably kill for.
"Welcome to my villa, 17."
The naked woman greeted 17 after emerging from the pool, grabbing a towel that was folded neatly on a sun lounge.
Pfft.
17 couldn’t help but smile while shaking his head. "Since when are monsters this polite? Are you imitating humans?"
"You can say that," the woman said, not naked anymore after putting on a white robe. "I was told that males go crazy for beautiful and voluptuous women like me. How come you weren’t affected by my appearance?"
"I’m gay."
"What does it mean?"
"I’m only attracted to men."
"Ah, then should I change my gender?"
With just the snap of "her" fingers, the woman standing in front of 17 suddenly turned into a huge, muscular man.
"Impressive," 17 said, nodding. "You’re handsome. Totally my type."
"Then will you be my human pet?"
"Nah, I already have an owner."
"What?"
"I only bark for Jericho."
The monster raised an eyebrow. "If you refuse my proposal, you’ll have no choice but to engage in a Death Match with me, 17."
17 laughed softly, snapping his fingers, his eyes cold despite his smile. "Bring it on, then."
Hundreds of lightning bolts fell from the sky at the same time 17’s Status Window popped up in front of him.

WHAT the fuck is happening?
Yuno was left in confusion when 17 and the falling dungeon both disappeared in just the blink of an eye.
So, the dungeon only allows natural S-Class Esper?
"Yuno, this is a big problem," Jericho said worriedly. "It seems like strange dungeons have appeared and ’abducted’ the natural S-Class Espers here."
Ah, so Jericho also noticed the same thing...
... wait, what?
Now Yuno understood why Jericho looked like he was about to faint from fear and anxiety.
Yeah, we have a big problem.
If all the natural S-Class Espers in the country were busy engaging in a Death Match with a Dungeon God, then...
"We’re fucked," Yuno said in disbelief. "Who’s going to protect us now?"
