Conquering The Game's World-Chapter 27: The Cemetery

Outside the G-grade dungeon 'The Cemetery'. As soon as he got out of the car. Luis saw the site was mostly vacant. Only people from the medical team seemed to be present. Looking at the black portal which was the entrance of the dungeon, Luis' fingers trembled in excitement.

The three of them were already in battle gear, so they were ready to enter whenever.

Before entering the dungeon, Lumine gazed at them and reminded them.

"Both of you will clear this dungeon together. I will observe your actions from a distance and won't interfere unless the situation is extremely dangerous." Both of them nodded. Then, looking at each other, they smiled. They could see the excitement in each other's eyes.

Rolling her eyes at their antics, Lumine asked, "Are you ready?"

"Yes!" both of them answered in unison.

"Then let's go." With those words, Lumine went inside the portal. Luis and Alicia followed after her.

As soon as Luis touched the portal, an ethereal feeling emerged inside him. The portal gave him a familiar feeling of using Space elements and at the same time, it doesn't. It was an indescribable feeling. As if something even grander. A power that is out of reach for mortals. He didn't know the concept behind it, nor did he know the answer to that feeling, but by the time he was out of his trance-like state, he was already inside the dungeon.

'What was that?' Luis didn't understand what had transpired. 'Is that feeling normal when you enter a dungeon? Or is it something else?'

'I should look into it later.' Thinking of this, Luis decided to put this matter aside.

Lumine looked around for a bit. Nodding her head, she said, "Okay, you guys can start. Don't mind me, I'll be hidden." With those words, in the blink of an eye, Lumine vanished.

"What?" Both of them were surprised as they looked around to see that Lumine couldn't be found anymore.

Luis didn't expect his Mother's stealth ability to be so amazing. Shaking his head, he said, "Let's do it, Alicia."

"Yes," Alicia looked around vigilantly.

Behind them was the portal. In front was the tunnel that was giving a dreadful and ominous aura. They could see their surroundings because of the luminous moss growing on the walls. As a herb, its only useful function is to glow, and is commonly found in dungeons.

A moment later, both of them started walking forward, taking every step cautiously. Though their strength was great, it was their first time entering a dungeon, and both of them were level-headed people. So they didn't rush around arrogantly.

Seeing this Lumine's lips curled upwards as a smile formed on her face. 'They aren't rash.'

To be honest, Lumine wasn't worried about their safety. She had trust in their judgment and their strength. With enough capabilities, even a normal G rank can fight the monsters in this dungeon. So why can't the two geniuses of this generation be?

She was just here to see how they act inside a dungeon. Seeing them walking together cautiously, Lumine was very satisfied.

When they were deep inside the tunnel, they came across scattered bones around them. Luis' perception caught some movement. So he reminded her, "Alicia, be ready."

With a small 'Um', Alicia took her fighting stance.

They didn't wait long as the bones started vibrating. They started joining together and taking the form of a human skeleton.

*Clack* *Clack*

Sounds of bones clacking could be heard at the Skeleton's every movement.

"It's here, a Skeleton Soldier." Luis looked at it excitedly. Although, he had seen some monsters in previous Luis' memories. It was his first time seeing one in person.

"Alicia, I will- " Before he could say that, he would take care of it. Alicia had already made her move. As she dashed forward, closing the distance.

*Punch*

*Crack*

*Scatter*

With a hard punch on the skull. Alicia crushed the Skeleton Soldier and the rest of the bones scattered.

Confirming that the monster was dead, she turned around and asked, "Did you say something?"

Shaking his head, he said, "It's nothing. Let's continue."

Alicia tilted her head in confusion but didn't think much about it. As they continued moving, they came across a group of three Skeleton Soldiers.

'Let's leave one for Alicia. I'll deal with the other two.' With a small grin on his face, Luis uttered, "Alicia, I'll-"

Once again, before he could say anything, Alicia was already rushing forward. She punched the first skeleton, crushing his skull and launched two Ice shards, finishing the other two.

*Crash*

*Crack* x2

"Huff," Letting out a breath, she confirmed that they were dead and turned to look at Luis, repeating the same sentence, "Did you say something?"

Luis' lip twitched. 'Calm down Luis, that's your future wife. A man needs to have patience.'

Taking a deep breath, he said, "Although your reaction speed was good, and you dealt with them easily. But you shouldn't rush ahead fighting alone, Alicia. You can depend on me, too."

Luis looked at her with his face full of concern. "I don't want you to face everything alone. Remember, I'm right beside you."

"I know it may take a while before you get used to me. Sometimes you may think that you could have solved the problem alone and more efficiently. But I will be happy if you could depend on me more." He said with his face full of affection.

Hearing Luis' words, both Alicia and Lumine became emotional. Luis cared for her so much. Thinking of this Alicia's heartfelt giddy.

"Will you depend on me, Alicia?" Luis asked softly.

She lowered her head and shyly nodded without saying anything. Seeing her nod, Luis gave a charming smile and let out a sigh of relief. "I'm glad."

'It seems I'll have a chance to fight too.' Luis was worried Alicia might defeat all the monsters herself. As his future wife, he can't compete for monsters with her. Hence, he tried to persuade her. Fortunately, it worked.
