Lord Of Puppets-Chapter 151 – Dungeon Raid – Results – Part 2.
Hours went by after the group that were ordered to went inside the dungeon to exterminate all of the monsters, including the dungeon master had went completely silent.
No contact whatsoever was made, meaning that there was only single logical explanation for the situation.
Wipe out.
Every single adventurer that went in were annihilated and there were no survivors.
It is unknown what had happened, but the "Dungeon Taming" has been canceled, with the adventurers being ordered to abandon the forest all together.
The guild master obviously went and sent messenger to report the situation to the elven princess .... But it was obvious that she didn’t liked the message as she set out alongside her knights as soon as possible in order to meet up with the guild master.
[Current location: Adventurer guild temporarily base camp]
"Em.... Sir. There is a person here to see you." – said a worried adventurer.
*Sigh*
"Look. I’m already busy here. So, if you-"
"YOU FUCKING BASTARD!" – shouted a voice of young woman.
"..."
"Oh great... It’s her." – whispered the guild master to himself as an elven princess alongside her knights forced her way through the group of adventurers.
"You! What is going on here!? What is the meaning of this?!" – shouted the elven princess as she held the letter in her hands.
"Pri-"
"EXPLAIN NOW!" – shouted the young woman at the elderly elf as he tried speaking up.
"Princess! Calm down!" – whispered her Personal knight as he grabbed onto the young woman shoulder.
The pissed off woman tried knocking off the man hand, but as she tried to, she saw adventurers around her, watching and whispering.
"That is the elven princess?" – whispered somebody.
"Wow, she is acting like a total bitch." – said pissed off adventurer out loud, making sure he was heard.
"!"
"You!" – the princess tried stir up something, but before she could, her personal knight quickly stepped up and stopped her.
"Sir.... If we may.... More personal, if possible." – said the princess’s personal knight as he was giving hints to the guild master.
"...This way." – said the elderly elf as he led the princess to his tent.
"...We should have some ’privacy’ here." – said the elderly elf.
"...Guild master Worano." – said the personal knight.
"What is the meaning of this? Why the hell are you saying that the operation on dungeon has been halted and it is unknown if they will be ever resumed?!"
"..."
"Did you read the entire letter?" – asked the guild master.
"WHO GIVES A SHIT!?" – shouted the princess as her knight tried speaking up.
"..."
(I’ve tried telling her, but she ignored me.) – princess’s personal knight tried giving eye signals to the guild master, trying to relay his thoughts to the elderly elf who quickly catches on.
"..."
"The B-rank adventurers and C-rank adventurers that went into the dungeon have gone missing." – said the guild master with annoyed expression.
"....Wait, what?" – said the princess.
"I’ve said that the adventurers that went into the dungeon, our ELITE team that had whole 3 B-RANK ADVENTURERS and also good number of the C-RANK ADVENTURERS has went into the dungeon and went missing."
"Nobody returned after hours and nobody fallowed my order of sending messenger if anything had happened."
"We checked first and second floor, but there was no contact whatsoever.... That means that the extermination squad had met their fate at the third floor.... Or by the hands of the dungeon master."
"Either way, this is beyond something we can handle right now."
"Not just 1 B-rank adventurer was slain, but 3! 3 YOU HEAR ME!"
"..."
"Then just hire more." – said the princess, which instantly caused everybody in the tent look at her with annoyed expression.
"Hire more adventurers until you beat that dungeon."
"Just threw many or few guys to do the job until is over?"
"Isn’t this what you adventurers are for?"
"..."
"..."
"...?"
"What?" – said the princess as everybody in the room went completely silence.
"LISTEN UP YOU LITLE FUCKING SHIT!" – shouted the guild master so loud that his voice was heard outside.
"YOU ARE FUCKING TELLING ME TO JUST THROW PEOPLE LIVES AWAY SO YOU COULD GET THE JOB DONE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!?"
"WHAT IN THE ACTUAL HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?! YOU SHITTY SPOILED LITLE FUCK!"
"YOU ARE ADULT WOMAN FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!"
"SO STOP ACTING LIKE A FUCKING CHILD AND THINK LIKE A PROPER ADULT!"
"..."
"Huh?" – the elven princess looked extremely pissed off at the elderly elf.
"Hey."
"You better apologize while I still feel merciful."
"Merciful?! FUCKING RETARDED MONKEY LIKE YOU FEELS MERCIFUL!? FUCK YOU!" – shouted the guild master as he forced his way through the knight and outside the tent.
"If you don’t value the adventurers’ lives, then fuck you and your kingdom!"
"This shitty nobility and Royality! They don’t fucking knew no less than picking up their noses!"
"HEY YOU ALL! LISTEN UP! PACK UP! WE ARE LEAVING!"
"!?"
"Wait! What is the meaning of this! We have a contract!" – shouted the princess as her personal knight gave up all together.
"Contract my fucking ass! You only hired us to deal with the problem!" – shouted the guild master.
"We ain’t your slaves that will die for you!"
"If you can’t respect lives of the people, then the deal is fucking off!"
"Deal with your own problem on your own!"
"!"
"You dare!" – shouted the princess.
"NO! YOU FUCKING DARE!" – shouted the elderly elf as he pointed at the princess.
"Until you fucking learn some respect or until the kingdom sent somebody with SOME brain them you can fucking consider adventurer guild out of the picture!"
"..."
"Did the guild master yelled at the princess?" – asked a curios adventurer.
"Yea.... I’ve never seen him scream in my entire life." – said the elven adventurer.
"Just what the hell did she do to piss him that off?!"
Once again, the adventurers started whispering amongst themselves and staring at the princess with annoyed and disgusted look.
"..."
"Sorry guild master Worano. But we will need leave." – said the princess’s personal knight.
"!"
"Hey! But-"
"Too many eyes!" – whispered the personal knight, alarming the princess.
"..."
"Tch." – without even saying goodbye, the princess and her knights quickly left the area, before the camp all together.
"..."
"Seriously, the fuck is wrong with this kingdom." – said the elderly guild master.
"Royal family is crap."
"Nobles are crap."
"And the only people that have some ability to think are straight up reduced to be that shitty little brat body guards."
"...Em.... If I’m not mistaken... Isn’t she-"
"My kingdom? Yea, I’m from this stupid ass kingdom." – said the guild master before curios adventurer could finish asking his question.
"And you yelled at the princess of very corrupted kingdom, who is also extremely doted and over loved princess of the king who pretty much gets everything she wants?" – asked curios adventurer as the guild master expression instantly changed.
"..."
"..."
"Shit." – said the guild master upon realizing how much he may or may not fucked up.
"..."
"..."
"I mean.... I kind of meant every single word."
"Including the whole retreat plan."
"I mean, neither us or them want to have kingdom and adventurers just ducking it out while the dungeon grows."
(But honestly? I don’t want to leave.) – Thought worried guild master as he stared at the forest.
(The amount of people that had died.... Including the B-ranks.... This doesn’t make sense.)
(True. We had some loses when the fight started and everything, but after we had dealt with golem ambush, we were able to easily deal with the golems."
(The dungeon shouldn’t had any monsters that should had wiped out the team.... Considering the state of the first and second floor being completely cleared and them not having any problem to sent a messenger.... Something must had gotten them on the third floor.)
(But what?)
(Was the dungeon master just that strong? Or maybe it was some sort of trap? It isn’t uncommon story for some high-ranking adventurers to just die off a random ass trap.)
(But would it be enough?)
(Nah. Logically speaking it shouldn’t.... That would mean it was truly a dungeon master.)
(And now we have a huge problem on our hands.)
(Honestly, we can’t work with those bastards if they are threating our lives as expendable crap.)
(....Still.... Fuck me.)
(No matter how we look at it, the situation will turn badly, won’t it?)
(I don’t mean the fucking relationship between us and the kingdom, but the whole dungeon wiping out the extermination team will make the dungeon able to create new monsters it had lost.... And maybe even cause the dungeon to rank up.)
"..."
"Well, this is their problem and they better deal with it." – said the guild master.
"FUCKING BASTARD!" – shouted the elven princess in her carriage as her escort group had already made some distance away from camp.
"They dare to fucking bark!? Those fucking mercenaries!?"
"These animals!?"
"..."
"Your majesty." – said the personal knight who was sitting across the carriage.
"WHAT!?" – shouted the princess.
"No matter what, only adventurers can fulfil the current job." – said the knight.
"Considering our current situation with Garmfon kingdom, we are UNABLE to sent our soldiers here.... And considering that the losses included B-rank adventurers, this isn’t just a simple matter."
"We will need to hire way more B-rank adventurers if we wish to conquer this dungeon."
"Tch. Then fucking do it. Isn’t this your job?" – said the princess.
(It is YOUR FUCKING JOB!) – thought annoyed knight who imagined himself punching the annoying woman right in her face.
(Yeah.... I’m quitting this fucking job as soon as we get back to the city.)
"..."
"?"
"Hey. What is going on? Why the hell carriage stopped?" – said the princess’s personal knight as he opened up a window.
"Sir, an official messenger came to us." – said the knight riding a deer-hours.
"?"
"Messenger?" – said the princess’s knight.
(I don’t like this.) – thought the elf as he left the carriage.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Tch."
(What is taking them so long?) – thought annoyed princess as her knight was already gone for some time, prompting the princess to get off the carriage.
"Hey! What is the hold up?!" – said the princess as she looked around and noticed worried expression on her escort knights’ expression.
"..."
"Em.... Princess." – said her personal knight as he an elven messenger stood right next to him.
"We may have some.... Trouble... Per say?"
*Sigh*
"Look. I’m already more than annoyed with that fucking old bastard, so it better be important." – said annoyed princess.
"Well... This may be far more important than dungeon?" – said the knight.
"The news just came...."
"King Ash, is dead."
"And the previous king not only returned alive but also has retaken the throne while also completely purging Ash loyalist, meaning that the kingdom pretty much by now is back in the original owners control?"
"So.... Yea.... That’s that?"
