"So if we go in there, we'll encounter terribly powerful monsters… and killing them is the sa as killing ones in the Dungeon? We'll gain Falna?" Riveria asked, eyes sharp with both curiosity and disbelief. "Wow… and how did you even discover this? That thing you held before… was it a key?"
Damien rolled the strange object between his fingers, the tal still faintly warm from the magic it had released. "Well… that's kind of the secret. No one can access this place except … and the people I allow inside. I'm not completely sure why. It might have sothing to do with what we talked about before… my divinity."
Riveria humd thoughtfully, slipping into scholar mode almost instantly. "It would make sense. The Dungeon itself was likely created by a god… or sothing close to one. It can't be anything else. Probably an evil one too, considering how it rejects divine presence. If your power bypasses that rule… then yes… this could absolutely be connected to sothing divine."
"Exactly," Damien said with a small shrug. "So I treat it as part of my ability. Anyway… once you're ready, you'll all feel sothing. Don't panic, okay?"
The girls exchanged looks but nodded.
Damien opened his system window, fingers moving through nus only he could see. The Party Function. Sothing he had unlocked after defeating the Ice Elf King but had barely touched since.
'Feels like I'm breaking the first rule of Solo Leveling… being solo… ' he thought with a faint smile. 'But if it makes them stronger… then who cares.'
One by one, he added them.
A faint pulse of energy spread outward like ripples in water.
"Whoa!" Tiona exclaid, grabbing her chest. "I feel sothing… like a connection between us. That's weird… but kinda cool!"
"Yeah…" Tione frowned, focusing. "It's like… we can hear each other almost."
"Because you can," Damien said. "Not everything. But if you concentrate, you can transmit thoughts to the party."
A second passed.
Then Tione stiffened.
'God I'm so horny right now… I really need his cock after this.'
Everyone slowly turned to stare at her.
Her face went red.
"You all heard that, didn't you?"
Damien nodded calmly.
Tione clicked her tongue and crossed her arms. "Tch… whatever. Ain't like you all aren't thinking the sa."
The tension shattered as the girls burst out laughing, even Riveria covering her mouth.
Damien sighed, half amused, half tired. "Alright, now that we've exposed everyone's brains… let's move."
Without hesitation, he stepped forward and jumped through the gate.
The others followed right behind him.
The world twisted.
Light swallowed them whole.
And then
They landed.
Soft grass. Warm wind. The sll of trees and soil.
A massive jungle stretched endlessly in every direction, vibrant green canopies towering overhead. Sunlight filtered through leaves like golden rain. Birds screeched sowhere far away. Insects buzzed. It felt alive. Too alive.
Riveria slowly turned in place, eyes wide. "…This genuinely feels real. Like we're outside the world entirely."
"We are," Damien replied. "You can think of this as its own realm. A realm filled with monsters."
He pointed deeper into the jungle.
"It's called the Land of Monsters. And specifically… we're in the Ant Region. Expect giant ants. Strong ones. So can even fly."
"Like that one?" Tiona asked casually.
Damien didn't even need to look.
Behind him, a shadow lunged.
A massive ant the size of a carriage burst from the brush, mandibles wide enough to crush a man's torso.
Before it could reach him, darkness rippled across the ground.
A blade shot upward.
Shlk.
The ant split cleanly in half midair.
Black smoke rose as the corpse fell.
From the spreading shadow, a familiar knight stepped forward, crimson eyes glowing beneath his helm.
Igris.
Damien turned and smacked his armored chest lightly with the back of his hand.
"Welco back, big guy."
The jungle suddenly felt quieter.
Then Damien's smile sharpened.
"Alright… let's start hunting."
And all around them, sothing large began moving through the trees.
...
And so the hunt began. Only this ti, Damien wasn't alone. He had a pack of fiercely eager girls trailing him, all of them practically radiating a lust for the kill. One could call it a massacre, and in truth, that's exactly what it beca.
The ants didn't stand a chance. They sward, they charged, they tried to overwhelm—but against a coordinated party of seasoned adventurers at levels four and five, it was almost unfair. Only Samira occasionally struggled, but she adapted quickly. Her Amazonian instincts made her a master of the terrain, turning trees, roots, and uneven ground into weapons of their own. Every corner of the jungle beca a trap she could exploit.
Minutes stretched into a relentless hunt, and Damien's party cut a path of carnage through the Ant Region. Limbs were severed, bodies dismbered, venomous stingers shattered beneath sharp blades. Shadows flitted across the battlefield, rging with their movents seamlessly. Every kill was swift, surgical, and efficient.
Finally, after navigating through the dense jungle, Damien found himself standing before the hive's entrance. A massive gaping hole in the earth, clearly a network of tunnels and chambers leading deep underground. He expected the colony to be large, but that wasn't what made him pause.
The ground began to shake violently, as if the forest itself were groaning under so massive weight. Branches snapped. Dust and pebbles rattled down from the treetops.
"What the hell is this?!" Tiona yelled, her voice cutting through the tremor.
"I have no idea… this is insane!" Tione shouted, eyes wide as she braced herself.
"… look!" Ryuu pointed ahead from her perch in the underbrush, her tone tense. Sothing massive was moving toward them from the colony's depths.
Damien's gaze sharpened. It was easy to spot, even amidst the chaos of the forest. The sheer size alone made the heart skip a beat.
"Holy shit… this thing is bigger than… Balor," Damien muttered under his breath, gripping his daggers tighter.
Before them lood a gargantuan, armored quadruped. Its hide was a fortress of thick, hardened plates, each one gleaming with a tallic sheen. Its snout stretched like an enormous anaconda, wide enough to swallow a man whole, and its sheer bulk made Damien estimate its size at least two, maybe three tis that of Balor.
"Is that a…" Riveria started, uncertainty creeping into her voice.
"It's a fucking Ant Eater," Damien finished grimly. "One specifically evolved to hunt these massive ants."
A faint hum of system energy filled the air, and a notification appeared before Damien:
[The Realm of Monsters's Field Boss: Vorant, the Ant Devourer]
"Well… that's a fucking Ant Eater all right," Damien said, his grin spreading. "And we should kill this one too. You guys up for it?"
"Hell yeah we are!" Tione shouted, practically bouncing with excitent.
"Hm… I want to fight it," Ais said, tightening her grip on her weapon, eyes narrowing in focus.
"With you here… we'll destroy it!" Tiona added, giving Damien a determined smile.
"It would be fun to see what it can do," Riveria said, adjusting her glasses as she scanned the beast.
"I'm ready whenever you are," Ryuu said calmly, voice steady but eyes sharp.
"Let's face it, my Lord," Samira added, her Amazonian pride radiating in every word.
Damien's grin widened. "All right. Good to know we all agree. Let's get to it!"
And with that, the hunt escalated from a simple massacre of ants to a battle for survival against a Field Boss unlike any they had ever faced. The jungle trembled as the girls and Damien surged forward, a whirlwind of steel, shadow, and battle instinct converging on Vorant, the Ant Devourer
