"Heh.. so the peasant finally couldn’t continue? I knew it was just a montary fluke.."
The blue haired Thaddeus Calder sneered as he watched Dante’s na stop progressing after hitting the 7,000 points mark..
"70th floor, heh.. watch surpass your blustering lead.." his pride, wounded after being dusted for so long by so no na from who knows where, finally seed to have been satiated...
"Take to the next challenge tower"
His voice sounded out as the tower teleported him to the next floor...
He appeared within a downtrodden cave, the air slled of mold and wet fur.
The floor was a carpet of chewed up bones from so animals he was too disoriented to care about..
The slow dripping sound of water from deep within the massive cave giving the place a deep unsettling feeling.
But nothing felt more unsettling than the massive blue skinned creature that lumbered from within the cave..
Standing at over 8ft tall, with gnarly muscles, wearing only a piece of a flimsy loincloth, its red eyes seed to glow a nacing red as it spared Thaddeus a hard glare, the massive club in its hand promising nothing but pure carnage..
{ELITE}...
"Shit.. just my luck, these things are a pain in the ass" Thaddeus muttered, a hardened expression appearing on his face..
Trolls were notorious for their regenerative abilities and uncanny strength..
He didn’t doubt it one bit, one strike from that massive club was enough to put him out of commission permanently...
Luckily, they were slow as hell so he could still do this whilst preserving his strength..
"Heh.. tower, trying to slow down won’t work. This must’ve been what happened, that wimp must’ve gotten easier challenges." His fragile ego couldn’t help but co up with so convoluted conspiracy theory..
If he had any idea just how petty the tower could be, he wouldn’t be saying such things..
Luckily, the tower seed super chilled at the mont, and so, his battle began...
.......
"What the fuck is this??"
"Booooo....bring back the excitent.."
"What’s with this amount of coddling??"
The watching audience seed irate at what they were seeing...
What were those "normal" looking monsters? What’s with the basic abilities they were seeing?
Where was the energy reflecting cyclops? What’s with that shit final lizardman king that guy was facing?
"Booooo....Boooo..." once again, the tower seed to have incurred public outrage...
"This..."
The supervisors stood rooted, awkwardly scratching their cheeks in embarrassnt..
They had no control over what the tower spawned, so they could only take the public’s outrage with awkward and embarrassed expressions...
After seeing unique, dangerous and impossible circumstances throughout Dante’s trial, the audience seed to have been so desensitized that seeing monsters they’d consider deadly on any other day were now "boring" "normal" looking creatures...
If Micheal or Thaddeus could hear the crowd’s reactions, one could only wonder what their expressions would be like...
***********
"Aunt V"..
"My God.. little D, you almost scared to death..."
Finally arriving at our designated resting area, I took a bath, got into my bed and made a call..
My aunt’s worried and exhausted voice coming through the other side..
My heart sank a little hearing her tired voice..
"I’m sorry aunt v, I didn’t think they were going to be that troubleso.."
"You just saw two creatures leaking death essence so pure it seed to compose their entire being, yet you thought a punch would fix it all".. her voice seed to have taken on an outraged tone..
I didn’t even bother wondering how she knew it was death essence the two were channeling, it was clear enough by now that my sexy aunt was anything but normal, didn’t matter though, I was in for a hazing and I knew I couldn’t get out of it unscathed..
Though to be honest..
I couldn’t bla her,seeing the nacing aura the two n were giving off, what could I possibly have been thinking to believe a punch would solve my problems..
"In my defense , I thought it was just a hulking pile of junk tal that would co loose with a single blow"
"Yea, and it decided to let you take the first strike, whilst placing an arm behind its back, I’d think your years of trolling others in a fight would make it easier for you to recognize when you’re being baited"..
Her reply made lower my head in embarrassnt..
I hadn’t even thought about it that way, but that bastard really did just do to what I did to others..
"Damn..."
"Yea damn, you blubbering fool" Aunt Raven’s fear seed to have turned into boiling anger at this point..
So, I did the only logical thing here, I stopped the futility of trying to plead my case and instead resorted to good old bribery..
"So how do I make it up to my lovely and beautiful aunt.." i cooed softly..
"Don’t try to weasel your way out of this one.."
"So a night out with just the two of us, doing whatever it is you want to do won’t cut it... sigh.. I tried.."
...
...
"I can make an exception just this once..."
I smirked...
"Too easy...."
"But as punishnt, you won’t be allowed to do anything extra during that date"
My smile faltered imdiately..
"Aunt V.. let’s not do anything we might regret.."
"Humph... that’ll teach you to give my heart such a nasty scare" her words silenced ..
It seems I was taking her fears for granted a tad bit too much...
"Alright aunt v, whatever you say... I’m your sugar baby after all.."
"Humph..." I could hear tone improve..
Seems I finally earned a smile from her..
The rest of the day wore on, I didn’t bother checking out whatever it is the others were doing..
I had this nagging feeling that I would just be upsetting myself more if I did...
