Chapter 13
The hunters began to enter the dungeons, the other side of the dungeon is a rocky area but there is a huge temple in front of the dungeon. 'That looks like a greek temple!' Robert thought.
There are three entrances gate at the temple, the design of this temple looks exactly like greek.
Robert now know why jason pick this place, this place must be hiding an artifact associated with the greeks or something valuable to his sponsor so 'he' must be inform jason about this dungeon.
The hunters who have been sponsored by a constellation can communicate with them.
"Is everyone here? Today we will be raid this temple called the catacombs of darkness." Lynch said, she gets in front and see all the hunters are all arrived.
"The temple behind me is one of the most dangerous dungeon to enter, many hunters are killed even the S-Rank hunters." Lynch said.
"And today we will be attacking this dungeon." Lynch said, she close her eyes take a deep breath then exhale and open her eyes. "If you lower your guard you will die in this dungeon, So I want all of you to work together so we can get out of this dungeons alive and we will split all the loots equally." She shout, she warned to be careful of this dungeon becuase this dungeon is taking many lives of hunters even S-Rankers.
The hunters heard and understand Lynch's warning. "We will be leaving in 10 minutes so prepare yourselves." With that said they begin to prepare to raid this dungeon.
'Time to turn invinsible!' Robert thought, he use his ability invinsible to make himself invinsible.
Robert also use his ability stealth so his step would be light and can't be heard by anyone. He was going into the corner of the gathering of the hunters until he see a man with long blond hair braided with blue eyes wearing a fighter equipment and weapon.
'Wait a minute... isn't that–?' Robert thought, he can't belive he will see this man here. 'Observe.'

'I knew it, he is a demonic human.' Robert thought, he can feel an evil aura and energy coming from somewhere among the hunters and now he found out who is it.
Demonic human was a human who formed a contract with a devil or demon. In exchange for human's soul, a devil or demon gave him or her power. Naturally, higher ranked devils or demons gave stronger powers.
'Demonic energy.' Robert thought. 'It's a ghastly cheat-like power similiar to poison, but can't be artificially created and is fundamentally different.'
'This Demonic energy can corrupt a user's temper and make them more vicious. It is a very aggresive, powerful, and dangerous power. There are many people who pursue this extreme and dangerous power to get stronger and obtain more knowledge or forbidden knowledge.' Robert thought.
This event usually occurs with the devils rather than the demons, if the demons give their powers to the humans eventually they will die because demon powers are very strong and dangerous than the devils.
That's the reason why you need to have a strong bloodline if you want to receive demon powers but If you receive devil powers you might have a chance because although the devils are strong and dangerous they are not stronger and not more dangerous than the demons.
'Judging by his rank and stats, he has different strength than it supposed to belong to B-Ranker so it must be because of the blessing of his sponsor.' Robert thought, he see all sven stats are different from a B-Rank hunter should have but he didn't because all his stats are belong to an A-Rank.
'The marquis of hell... I wonder who is the name of the devil or demon with that kind of title?' Robert thought.
[Detecting heroine nearby!]
Robert have been alerted by anna of detecting a heroine, he begun to use his heroine radar from the system. He look around and following the heroine detector until he detected he is 5 meters away from the second heroine.
He look up ahead to see a beautiful women who look in her twenties, wearing a mage robe equipment, holding a mage staff, wearing a tight-suit under her mage robe equipment, black hair, F-Cup breasts,wide hips and nice ass.
'Observe!' Robert thought.

He look at her status and intrested by her SS-Rank ability. 'Bless by nature... I wonder if this girl is born with this ability or someone give this ability to her?' Robert thought.
Robert didn't believe the thought of someone giving people or random stranger a powerful ability not to mention an SS-Rank ability at that. He thought that there can't be no one that stupid or naive to give someone a blessing or power as strong as this.
He assume she is born with this ability or someone bless her to have this ability. 'Is a divine being give her this ability?' Robert confirmed his suspicioun when he see one of her title is bless by olympian goddess.
'But she didn't have any sponsor?' Robert thought, he is confuse of how did she got a blessing by olympian goddess but she didn't got sponsor from any constellation.
Usually when you are bless by a divine being you should already have the sponsor of the constellation who give you that bless but she has a blessing and didn't have the sponsor who bless her.
'Something is wrong.' Robert thought, he got a bad feeling about this.
"Alright, everyone let's enter the temple!" A hunter shout, he is from Lynch's group.
The hunters began to enter the temple and water droplets can be heard fall from above, once they get in the temple there is a forked path.
"A forked path?" A Rainsglade assasin hunter said.
"Seems like there are 10 paths leading towards inside of the temple
"We need to split into 10 groups, each two of our guild members will be assigned into different groups." Lynch said, she plan to split her two members of her guild in each every group with non Rainsglade hunters.
"I object." A hunter said, they look towards where the sound coming from.
They see a hunter wearing silver with blue lines knight armor, high quality broadsword on his back that seems to have a strong ability, he looks in late twenties, broad shoulder and muscular, black hair and brown eyes.
"And why are you objecting this, hunter Tusk?" Lynch ask.
"We shouldn't split our group with the groups of non hunters from our guild, why don't we just split our guild into two groups and the other hunters into eight?" Tusk said, he disagree of spliting their group with other hunters who are not from their guild.
"I don't care If you disagree or the hunters are not from our guild because we need to cover more ground and report the situation on each path." Lynch said.
'As expected, she is stubborn and will set that idea or path once she made out in her mind.' Robert said.
Tusk want to retort her words. "This is an order!" Lynch said, she glared at tusk and warned him If he disagree with her order he will get a heavy punishment.
Tusk flinched and didn't say anything back. "Tell the other hunters to split into 10 groups with 8 people inside one group, I will assigned two each of our guild hunters in each group after they have formed the ten group." Lynch said.
Tusk nod his head and went to inform the other hunters with bitter. Robert look at tuska and recognize he is a villain in the novel, tusk is strong a strong fighter and tanker. When he is a B-Ranker he join the Rainsglade guild but when he see Lynch he instanly blush and fell in love with Lynch.
He wants to know her and want to get close with her but he can't because he wasn't strong and not famous enough to get near her or reconize by her. So he train so hard and do many missions so he can be assigned in her team.
Finally that time comes and the hard work paid off, he became an A-Rank and join with her strong group. He slowly get acquaintenses with other hunters and slowly hunter Lynch began to notice him, he became the vice leader of her team.
They became friends and watch each others back but he wanted more, he wants her to be his or you can say his wife. 'Obersve.' Robert thought.

'His abilities are not bad, he has two defensive ability and aura.' Robert thought, for a villain he is quite strong especially if he has aura because aura can be obtain when you are a swordmaster.
Tusk began to inform the hunters about splitting them into ten groups, they are worry because this dungeon is dangerous of having strong monsters but tusk reassure them because they will assign two of their members into each group.
This info makes them calm down and sigh in relief, they begin to form into 10 group with their friends or other hunters. Robert deactivate his stealth begin to join a team with other hunters.
Robert's team consist two warriors, three mages, one asassin, one tanker, two archers, and one swordsman. One of the archer and the swordsman is the member of Rainsglades guild.
Robert begin to see other hunters forming a team one by one, the main character team is already formed up. Jason's group look pretty strong especially when Lynch is one of the hunter in jason group but there is also Tusk inside the group.
Laura and sven are in the same team but not with jason's team, after forming a team they begin to introduce themselves one by one and what is their class.
"Alright, Now everyone pick one of the tunnels you want to enter." Lynch said.
"So which way should we go?" A hunter in robert's team said. He is a warrior.
Robert see who is the one talking, he see a girl with a bow and arrow, good quality equipment, purple hair, purple eyes, skin-tight suit, E-Cup breasts and she look like in her twenties. Her codename is whelm.
She has a symbol of Rainsglades guild on her shoulder.
"I think we should go with the middle one." A hunter said.
"How about you?" The purple haired girl look at the swordsman with the symbol of Rainsglades on his left chest armor.
He looks like in his late twenties, brown hair, green eyes, held a longsword, good quality equipment and armor, he has an aura of an expert who have fight many battles. His codename is warden.
"I want to go to the 6th one but since that guy want to enter the 5th one, let's vote." Said the swordsman.
They begin to vote one by one to see where they should go, of course robert would say the 5th one because he can feel the 5th one is the safest route with little traps and the monsters are not strong.
One of the member of Rainsglades guild on each team began to report to their leader of which path they choose to take.
One by one all the teams began to gather at path they have chosen, all the hunters and robert began to walk inside on each path they have chosen.
Lynch team picked the first path and ashlin's team picked the 8th path. 'Let's see why did jason choose that path!' Robert walk inside along with his team and think about what lies beyond the path Lynch's team choose.
