The Loner- Monster Market - (short series) (part-3)

People "Chattering"

"Hey, are you also coming for the porter position. I saw a few hunters back there."

"Hello, everyone I am from Black Bear, I will be guiding you to the dungeon. For safety measure, we have to lock you guys up in the back of the container truck and we will transported you guys to the dungeon. According to the list, there are about 8 porters, 3 hunters of Rank E and 2 hunters of Rank D. This is a raid team, but inside the dungeon, whatever you kill and the loot is yours. The sharing and dividing of the loots solely depend on yourself. We don't take responsibility of whatever is happened inside the dungeon. And also the cleaning team will be arrived 5 days later. So, you might wanna come out soon."

"Alright you can now enter"

"People chatters and enters"

The black glass man: "The dungeon sure does eat a lot, there goes another group of sacrifices, prepare the termination team ready. How is the first group of raiding team, it has been 1 day after they went in. That group of hunters with three porters are hiding their real hunter ranked. From my speculation or instinct, most of them are experienced Rank D hunter or even maybe Rank C hunters. Well anyway, even I Rank(C) couldn't survive back there without Skull Crasher-Nim(Rank B)."

Just in case, prepare the termination team ready, This time, the skull crasher-Nim won't be partaking, buy I know the entrance level of this dungeon, they aren't gonna survive after they passed the entrance level and get closer to the boss room anyway. Even Rank(B) hunter will die inside the boss room. Gather the termination group, we will terminate every survivor inside the dungeon tomorrow at dawn. (evil laugh)

Back to hope team.

"We entered the dungeon with everyone but even on the entrance level, most of the monsters are high level enough for us giving it our all. Most of our hunters are Rank D and Rank E. We porters have hot weapons but even though we fires with all our might, these monsters aren't getting destroyed by the bullets and we had already lost 2 of our porters from the skeleton monsters attacks".

We can't counter the monster attacks. What are hunters doing in this situation?

One of the porter: "Fxxk, they abandoned us already? How are we going to fight against these things? Fxxk, my hands, shit... I have been hit, what the arrow is poisonous! Shit, there are coming from everywhere. Shit.....why are RankD monsters in the Rank E dungeon. Retreat...."

"It is good that we abandoned the porters group, our burden loses a lot and we also don't have to share the loot,"

"Hey, watch our mouth. We don't know each other. What you will get in this dungeon will be depending on how much you are capable of, you kill, you take the loot. That will be the rule"

"Alright, I know that already, look like Rank(D) guys are not willing to share the loot just because they are a little bit higher in ranks than us Rank(E)"

"Stay alerts, we abandoned the porter group because they are useless in combat and just burden to us. If you also act like the same burden to us, we have to abandon you here"

"What's matter, I can totally capable of standing on my own, you know".

"Hey, you guys, do you guys find it strange, why there are Rank(D) monsters in the dungeon?" I suppose we entered Rank(E) dungeons right?"

Wait, I hear something, shit. "that is.... that is...." "Ahhhhhhhhh...."

Shit.. "why is skeleton orc(Rank C) is here" "Swoosh, head sent flying into the air"

Fxxk "It is Skeleton Assassin(C-), be careful. They are intelligent, they killed our only ranger (with abilities to scout nearby), they are not your average monsters anymore. Fxxk, I think we are treated as genuine pigs to test the actual limit of this dungeon, the dungeon being Rank (E) is a lie. Retreat"

"Damn it, what why aren't you Rank(D) guys doing back there, I said retreat."

He saw a body of headless hunter(D), he had been killed instantly just a few moment ago, so he was taken by surprise so he didn't have time to react but instead his muscle suddenly in a shock, creating a muscle memory like he is standing without a head even though he is already dead.

"What the fxxk, he is dead, shit" A pair of eyes (glows with red light) with a metal clicking sound, elite Skeleton Warrior(C) Gheeee Gheee."

"Sound of foot steps, foot steps" "running" "Breathing heavily"

"What the fxxk is wrong with this dungeon, we can't even rest, we were attacked when we were most relaxed every single time as if they had been watching over us from the dark We already lost 5 of the porters, with the hot weapons we have, we have no chances of countering that many Rank(E) and Rank(D) monsters without hunters. Now our only options is to retreat as near as to the entrance as we could. At this rate, I am sure that most of the hunters will die too, I don't think this dungeon is normal, even the entrance level is filled with Rank(D) monsters, there might be higher rank(C) or even (B) monsters in deep of the this dungeon"

"You are saying.... this dungeon is irregular one"

"Yep, I am sure of that, there is no way A rank (D) monsters appeared in Rank(E) dungeons, either we were lied by the Black Bear Bastard to test the real rank of the dungeon or they already know about it, and just send us as a cannon fodder." But either way, I am sure, they won't let us go alive. They had already planned to kill everyone in the raiding team."

"We have to make it do right now, either hiding or dying at the hands of monsters. We are trapped right now" "We should retreat, got it?" "Hey, HOPE! Kid! get yourself together, shit" "I am not here to babysit you, understand!" "We are dealing life or death here, you understand!" The surviving porter guys suddenly shouted at Hope as he is scared as well. "Now, there is only three of us left, how can we get back to the exist?" "Fxxk, I need to get back to my family, my daughter is still waiting for me." Another guy slowly whispered.

Hope is scared as hell. His mind is freeze to think of anything. Whole body is covered with the intense fear as he can't feel his hands, legs as if they aren't there anymore. He couldn't feel the strength in his leg and arm. He had faced dangerous situations before, but his father protected his risking his life every time. Suddenly, "Ghee... Ghee... Gheeee... Ghee..."

"Shit, they are coming, the rank(D) undead monsters, skeleton archers and skeleton worrier, Fxxk I am out of magazines" "I have only one, too" Kid, do you have extra, hurry give it to me? "RUN"

One of the porter guys got stabbed to his heart, by the arrow of the skeleton archers. "Shxt, they got the Corner, kid, run" In front of him, there is a huge skeleton orc (C) ranked suddenly appeared out of now where, they no longer have any hope to survive. But at the time,...

"Some unknown entity is quietly enjoying the show, he/she has a very wick nature, but not evil"

"Well, that is interesting, look like no one would survive from event, what a shame, I am longing to see some amusement after a while. Well, I don't being with other entities, I feel like I can search my player on my own, arrogant entities, they look down on me, just because my immortality isn't genuine like theirs."

"Last see, I thought I finally found some interesting vessels after a long time, that guy is interesting though, the kid beside him is useless, he is losing hope, unmatched with his name. (entity laughing), he is too frozen even to move, useless. I, the one who long for unlimited life doesn't need such weak vessel!"

"I created this dungeon, in order to find my proper vessel, look like I was wrong." "I have been waiting here watching all kinds of challenger tried and failed, became a fertilizer for this dungeon" "look like I wasted my authority point for nothing, huh?" "I like that guy, let me help you a little bit"

The skeleton orc (Rank C), "Fxxk, it is the skeleton orc, we are not going to make it, kid" "Suddenly a orb of dark energy appeared out of nowhere and attached the porter, he body is emitting is death energy and that makes the skeleton orc think that he is already dead as undead monsters are sensitive to life energy."

The porter: "What, I got neglected for some reason, maybe I am not destined to die yet?"

"It will only last for a few min, I want to you to hurry and escape. Don't you wanna meet your family right?"

Instead, the skeleton orc is now chasing after Hope, the only living energy sensing currently.

Hope: "Why is he chasing after me? Help me, I don't have any ammo left, I am going to die here."

The porter: "Shxt, hang on, kid"

The unknown entitiy: "The effect will disappear in a min, it is worth risking for a stranger, a useless one, human!"

The porter hesitated....

The porter: "Sorry, kid, it is life or death, I think it is just luck. Sorry, I still want to see my daughter growing up, forgive me".

He ran out of the way quickly, leaving behind hope as bait, while he is covered with unknown dark energy. On his way, the monsters didn't try to attack as if he was never there in the first place, as if they can't sense him.

"Finally, I am getting out of this hell hole. The exist is just there, there are no monsters as well, even if there are monsters, somehow with this dark energy covering my whole body, they won't attack me" "My daughter Rin, Daddy is coming home" "I promise that I won't be doing anything dangerous, and I will stop gambling as well" "I will work hard and pay the debt that I caused because.... Dad wanna see my daughter grow.........."

"UP"(swoop)......."Why happened? Why isn't my body moving? I am falling to the ground? What, my head?"

"See that I cut that cockroach head off with a clean cut, right? I win, give me my 100 buck" (laughing.. chatter..... no matter how much you struggle, you are destined to be the meatball for this dungeon.(evil laugh)... "Stop, playing. Look like only one escaped alive out of the inner part, these guys sure work hard, to even reach the inner part" "Well, whatever they are going to die by our hands even if they survived and tried to get out" "Keep advancing, kill any survivor you find on the way".

The porter: "In the end, I met this end as well. Sorry, my sugar, daddy won't make it back home. I am sorry, My dear, please take care of my daughter.. I am sorry for the all trouble I have done to you. I am sorry... sorr.. y ..s o. ..r.. (vision slowly faded away) (tear slowly dropping)

The skeleton orc is slow and hope managed to dodge some attacks out of luck, but (Boom) one hit was enough to send him straight into the wall of the dungeon, a lot of blood gushed out of his mouth, uncontrollably, his vision is slowly fading. With one strike, all his ribs are broken, his leg and arm, his internal organs are smashed into the paste.

The orc skeleton is slowly walking towards him, (Bump) (Bump) (loud foot step) (loud foot step)

"Am I going to die here?" "I don't want to though" "I can't feel anything from my body, arrrr, there is something flowing out of my mouth, I can't tell what, it is warm, and salty. My vision is red, maybe my eye is covered with blood. "well, that is the end, no, I don't want that....... Grandpa, I want to help my mom and dad, they are burning their life span for mine. I don't want.... tha..t)

Orc skeleton is going to smashed his rest body into meat-paste but he sensed someone approaching, a very dangerous aura, so intense that he can say for sure that it is a living or undead, because all he's sensing is that "Ultimate blood thirst" with glowing crimson red, slowly walking toward it. With a monster twice as big as orc chief(B) beside him.
