Sneaking In

"Thank you for not trying to do anything while you were washing my body," Aurora said as she exited the bathroom and looked at Amia. "I'm less upset now, but not to the point where I can completely forgive you."

"At least you're not as upset."

"Since we finished our shower, let's head to the Adventure Association." Turning back around, Aurora walked over to the front door, opened it, and gestured for Amia to go first.

"Thanks." Amia exited the house, followed by Aurora, who locked it, before they left together, heading for the Adventures Association.

Entering the Adventures Association, they walked up to the receptionist's desk, seeing a classic, beautiful woman with curves in the right places, seeming to be middle-aged.

"What can I do for you two young ladies?" Emma said.

"We'd like to raid an A-rank dungeon gate." Aurora said.

"I will need your adventure ID." Emma flashed a gentle smile.

Aurora handed over her Adventures ID, which she checked for a few seconds before handing it back.

"You are allowed to take on A-Rank Quests since an adventurer is able to take on quests one rank above their own,"—Emma's look became serious—"but you are taking this quest at your own risk, so if there are any casualties, you can not put the blame on us."

"We know."

"Good." Emma's look returned to the gentle smile she had previously. "Let me look to see if there are any free A-rank dungeon gates."

She began tapping through the tablet she had in front of her, looking through the A-Rank dungeon gates.

A few minutes later, she stopped looking through the list and looked up at us with an apologetical look. "I'm sorry, but all the A-Rank Dungeon Gates are all booked by other guilds."

"That's disappointing."

"I'm sorry, but I can't do anything about it."

"I understand. Please inform us if there are any open A-Rank dungeons."

They both left the Adventures Association, but Aurora didn't seem down at all, even after hearing that all of them were booked by other guilds.

"Why do you seem happy?" Amia asked.

Aurora pulled out a tablet that looked similar to the one Emma had, and showed it to Amia. "I have all the A-Rank dungeons recorded on here, so all we need to do is sneak into one."

"Oh, I see."

Aurora and Amia headed to the closest A-Rank dungeon gate.

###

They arrived on the site where the dungeon gate was, seeing that it was blocked off with a few guards, all flaunting the guild name [Blackdawn] on their vests.

'It seems like it is heavily guarded, so I'll use a skill that I haven't used yet.'

Disappearing from Aurora's position, the guards began to drop like flies as they were put to sleep with a nice relaxing dream.

Next to the gate, Aurora could be seen, signaling for Amia to come over, which she immediately complied with.

Reaching Aurora, Amia asked, "Why didn't you kill them?"

After entering the dungeon gate with Amia, Aurora replied, "Because killing them has no benefits for us, but trouble, so I just made them fall asleep and gave them a nice dream."

"True."

Brandishing two demonic daggers, Aurora proceeded further into the dungeon, scanning the area around them for any sign of life.

"I'll be there as support since I'm not adept at close quarters combat like you are."

"I don't mind." Aurora sensed a monster lurking in the tunnels that resembled ribs.

Aurora took a step forward, appearing behind a nine-foot tall bear-like monster, but instead of having hair, it had razor-sharp spikes covering its entire body.

'This might make things a bit difficult.'

Aurora aimed her dagger at its eyes, but it quickly reacted, swiping its paw at her with a speed that doesn't match its size.

Aurora shifted her body weight to her leg, leaping into the air, avoiding its attack while flipping as she brandished two cursed katanas, thrusting them towards its eyes.

Piercing its eyes, the curses transferred from the blade to its body, causing [bleeding] and [paralysis]

It groaned in pain as it tried to move, but it was thwarted.

'It should be possible to absorb life force through other means other than sex?' Holding onto the two katanas, Aurora attempted to absorb the monsters' life force.

Half a minute passed,

Aurora felt the same familiar feeling of life force flowing through her as it traversed through the katana to her hands, up her arms, making its way into Aurora's soul energy palace in her abdomen.

Soon, the once lively, spiked bear was just a shriveled up corpse, drained of all its life, where Aurora felt refreshed from absorbing the life force of it.

Looking at her sexual energy, Aurora smiled.
