The 7 of them were currently fantasizing over the things that they were going to do with the money once they have sold it to the Dungeon Centre. With two F-Rank Skill books, it will fetch a price.

''Captain, how much do you think we're going to get with these skill books?'' One of them asked with a watery mouth.

The way he stares could have devoured those books and his eyes were shining with expectation. Every one of them was greedy and if not for the Captain's presence, they would have fought over it.

Skill books are rarely to be dropped and having two of them it's already considered insanely lucky.

It explains why all of them were excited and imagined how much money they would receive. Yes, all of them except for Daniel.

He just wanted things quickly to be done and returned home before visiting his sister at the hospital.

However, out of a sudden, the dungeon shooked vigorously, as though announcing something about to happen.

''What's going on!?'' Daniel said with a frightened face.

''Captain, what's happening right now! Why is the dungeon having an earthquake!'' One of them shouted and all of them were panicking over something unknown to them.

''Fuck...we're in deep shit'' The Captain with an expression of fear.

''The Dungeon effect has been triggered! Once it has been triggered, the boss and its minions will once more appear, but, it will be more powerful and we can't leave unless every one of them has been killed!'' The Captain cried out.

''T-Then what do we do!?''

''What else can we do!? Of course, killed them all!'' The Captain said.

If you can't clear a dungeon within a month, there will be an outbreak of monsters, but if you overdo it, then the dungeon effect will be triggered.

It only happens if the clearance has been cleared a hundred times and it will restart once its effect has been cleared.

Why would they enter the dungeon if such an application exists? That's because the groups were idiots for not checking it out.

In the centre of the room, towers of bones were forming and the fog began to surround the centre, creating a creepy and spooky atmosphere.

However, what is even scarier is the boss and minions that have appeared.

Nobody has no idea where the mountain of bones came from, it could be the remains of the hunters who have died while clearing this dungeon or this could very well be the bones of the previous batch that came for some profits.

The Skeleton Boss has the same height but its rank has broken the threshold, achieving a mid Rank D which shouldn't appear on an E-Rank Dungeon.

On the other hand, the minions have gone one rank higher and the aura these monsters gave out is not something that should not exist inside of an E Rank Dungeon.

''Fucking hell...why is this happening! Why didn't one of you checked the records clearance of this dungeon!'' The Captain blamed his teammates with bloodshot eyes

''B-But Captain, you told us not to worry about it and just clear it'' One of them spoke out in fear.

''Fuck it! We'll go with the same plan, I hold the boss off, and you guys handle the minions! You guys better hurry killing the minions, or else, I won't be able to hold off the boss, and we will die if I die'' The Captain said and he went towards the boss afterwards.

If not for the fact that every monster must be killed while the entrance is sealed off, the captain would have gladly abandoned all of them.

Life is more precious than everything is he thought. So, choosing the best way course of living, he decided to work with everyone else.

Hearing his order, all of them began battling against the skeleton knights that were more powerful than before, but at least, they were able to somehow managed.

''Decisive Blow!''

''Needle Shot!''

''Cry of Banshee!''

''Lotus Strike!''

''Rain of Arrow!''

All kinds of skills were used and it managed to kill most of the skeleton knights and it would have taken longer if it weren't one of them holding priest skills that were effective against the undead type of monsters. And like the usual, they helped their captain.

While they were fighting against the boss, Daniel sat down and leaned against the cave wall.

He let his huge bag down on the ground and searched for a pack of food that contained rice and meat with some curry sauce.

He is not worried about all of them, since, he knew that it's easy for them to handle the boss. He has gone into this dungeon so many times, hence, he already knew that it is the dungeon effect and he has come out alive countlessly with the members being alive.

He's having the leisurely of his time, while they were fighting against the boss which appears to take quite a toll on them.

All of them were sweating and their MPs were running out, unexpectedly, the skeleton boss is tougher than it looks and they were having a hard time landing a blow to it.

Its defence and bones were sturdy enough to defend against their magical attacks, even the captain's skill is not working on it, thus, they begin to worry.

''Hey, Backpack boy! Passed our MPs potions right now!'' The Captain called out, but, Daniel is already working on it. As he ate, he is watching them fighting, waiting for the perfect time to pass the potions to them.

Daniel took the blue-coloured potions and threw them towards them where they successfully caught them and drank them, once they were done, they continued fighting.

''Sigh, is this what I want to become? A backpack boy forever in my life!?'' Daniel asked himself as he stares at the ceiling of the cave.

''I too, want to be a hunter, a hunter that holds an unimaginable power, a hunter who people respect, a hunter who can do everything he wants...what I want ultimately is to live without worrying about the needs of living...I want to be invisible where nothing can happen to more or have an infinite power where no one can stand against me...then maybe I can achieve anything I want...'' Daniel clutched his hand.

''But such a thing can only happen in my dreams...if my sister can wake up from her coma...then at least, I'm happy...she's all that I can wish for'' Daniel said.

Not far away from him, a skill book lay on the ground and it caught Daniel's eyes.

''A skill book has been dropped!? Why did no one else notice it?!'' Daniel questioned. The skill book drops when one of them killed the minion, however, because of how rushing they were, they did not notice it, so they left it on the ground.
