Farming Inside The Dungeon - Chapter 97
” I’ll be winning this one! Aqua jet!!”
While rushing at Freed, Bintang also used the power of water to increase her momentum.
Bintang was covered by the water, and a spear-shaped water aura appeared behind her, fully turning her body into a weapon.
The attack was great, but it was still far from enough to deal with Freed.
” That’s a good improvement, Bintang. But it is still far from me. Fallen leaves, adore my night!”
Freed made a slashing gesture with his hand, and the power of wind immediately converged in his surrounding.
Autumn slash, a single slash that strikes with the force of the first winds of autumn, dealing AoE wind damage.
The blade’s passage will leave behind a field named “Autumn Whirlwind” that increases the power of the wind in the surrounding.
BANG!!!!
Bintang’a aqua jet was fully nullified by Freed’s Autumn slash. Both parties took a step back as none of the attacks was able to gain an advantage in the clash.
However, from Ray’s point of view, Freed had the upper hand on this.
Even though the name and the word Freed said before launching the move was pretty cringe, Ray must admit that Freed was able to perfectly replicate this attack.
Autumn slash was not a single attempt finishing attack like Bintang’s aqua jet; and instead, it was more of a support attack that would open the curtain for the next big move.
The moment Bintang was unable to defeat Freed before he launched the Autumn slash, Ray had already known the result of this battle.
Whooshh….
Bintang once again rushed towards Freed as she was brandishing the water spear and slashed at Freed.
Slightly tilting his body, Freed dodged the attack, but unexpectedly the tip of the water spears suddenly stretched, moving towards Freed’s face.
Clang!!!!
Taking out his fang, Freed stopped the water spear, but Bintang’s attack was still far from ending yet.
She spun her body around, and the water spear attacked Freed once again.
Freed and Bintang were trying their best in this battle. The chickens, on the other hand, were watching with faces full of excitement.
” Coop!” { Yeah, get him, Bintang! Don’t let my spirit berries turned to waste!”}
” Coop-Coop!” { Dream on! Boss Freed is the strongest!}
The chickens kept shouting as to cheer the two battling sides.
But without them knowing, the battle was finally entering its final phase.
Bintang, who kept attacking relentlessly, slowly became tired with all her offensive and decided to play her biggest move.
” If you can handle this, then I will admit my lost,” Bintang said with a haggard breath.
” Hehe, just do anything you want. I will show you the difference in our strength.” Freed calmly said. His breath was still normal, very in contrast to Bintang’s, and his face had calm written all over it.
” Okay, I’ll see how you will handle this.”
Not affected by Freed’s provocation, Bintang surged her aura.
The water spear that was formed behind Bintang constantly getting bigger, and then..
” Water spear style: Water Dragon Blast!”
ROAARRR!!!!
In an instant, the giant water spear was thrown in Freed’s direction.
The phantom of a water dragon appeared as the big water spear collided with Freed’s body.
BOOM!!!!
Freed didn’t dodge, and the attack hit its target. The attack drowned Freed, and his body was swallowed by the giant water spear.
” Have I won??”
Bintang looked in Freed’s direction with expectation in her eyes. She never thought that Freed would be that stupid to receive the attack head-on, but a win is still a win she thought.
But just when Bintang began to let her guard down as she thought she had won this battle, a voice suddenly appeared from above.
” Naive Bintang, you are still hundred years apart from defeating me!”
It was Freed’s voice, and the appearance of this voice made everyone’s eyes filled with shock.
Wasn’t Freed swallowed by the bug water spear? So how could he be standing far above everyone?
Among everyone watching this scene, only Ray has a calm smile on his face.
He had long predicted the outcome of this battle, and this scenario was in line with his prediction.
Autumn slash, other than buffing the power of wind moves, also helped to create a camouflaging for Freed. The moment he launched the Autumn slash, Freed immediately jumped high into the air and used the gliding wind’s power to maintain his posture.
In fact, the one that was battling Bintang until now was just an afterimage of Freed. And Freed had silently observed the battle from above all along.
Soon, the big water spear disappeared, and a totally fine Freed landed down from above.
” I win this one, Bintang.”
” Humph, I’m not talking to you!”
With that, the curtain of the first big battle in the Morningwood dungeon closed.
Ray, who was watching this scene, had a pretty warm smile on his face. He saw the growth of his two currently strongest monsters, and his thought could not help but go back to the time when he first met them.
‘ Freed, Bintang, the two of you have gone so far.’
He still clearly remembers the weak little wolf trying to save his mother. Now that little wolf has grown this far, Freed might have surpassed his late mother.
‘ Maybe it wouldn’t be that long until you get your revenge, Freed… Hopefully, the DM System will give us a chance to get back to that secluded world and let you have your share of revenge.’
Deep down, Ray knew that Freed was still not able to let go of that time, and reading manga, anime, and acting edgy was only his way to hide his frustration.
. . . . . .
Time flew, and without Ray realizing it, it had been almost half a month from the last Dungeon Raid.
The progress of his and his monster’s level has been going pretty well, especially after he sold the information of the Dungeon to the government.
To hide his identity, Ray, through Ellen, used the black market as a dealer and successfully sold the Dungeon information for $3,000,000. The money itself was good, but the main benefit of selling the dungeon information is from the DM Currencies that the Dungeon generated every day.
With its current pace, the mountain-dew Dungeon was able to generate about 1000 DM Currencies every day, and combining it with his daily missions and sign-in, Ray was eventually able to gather about 80,000 DM Currencies now.
Today was just like usual. Ray was about to go back to his Morningwood Dungeon when he suddenly noticed a strange middle-aged man was sitting in the orphanage living room.
“The Jakarta awakener association’s president??”
Did he see that right?
Ray doubted his own eyes just then.
A man often referred to as the most powerful awakener in Indonesia had come to such a secluded place like this orphanage…
‘That must be some kind of joke….’
Just as Ray stood there not wholly convinced, the Jakarta awakener association’s president pointed at one of the empty seats like signaling Ray to sit and have a conversation with him.
‘Yes, this is not a dream. The Jakarta awakener Association President is here.’
Why was someone like the president looking for him? A powerful curiosity suddenly invaded Ray’s mind. Was his identity finally discovered? If it was true, then things might not be this simple.
Ray was ready to take the whole orphanage to his Morningwood Dungeon and didn’t give a fuck on what would be happening later. But when he saw that there was no malicious intent in the president’s eyes, he decided to take a bet and sit with him.
Looking at the middle-aged man sitting in front of him, Ray swallowed his saliva.
The Mad Buto, the strongest awakener in Indonesia, the one that singlehandedly push the awakener team to clear the Lawang Sewu Dungeon.
Jakarta awakener’s president…. this strong man was sitting in front of him.
After discovering that Ray listened to him and took a seat, a smile appeared on the president’s face.
“You must be Ray. Kei had told me much about you.”
The president offered his hand to Ray and gave him a handshake. The president might look like a normal middle-aged man, but his physique was far above Ray’s expectations.
Even the current Ray felt like the president’s physique was at least two or three times stronger than him, and that was without his most popular ability, Buto state.
However, he didn’t emit any of the overbearing aura ones might expect from someone like that. In fact, Ray could see the aura of a kind neighborhood old man from the president.
‘That’s surprising.’
Ray was not going to be polite and shook the hand of the president. The president saying Big Sis’s old name should mean that they have some relations with each other.
“Yes, I’m Ray.” Ray replied.
Seeing Ray was not afraid of his sudden appearance, the association’s president’s face turned bright.
“It’s a pleasure to make your acquaintance. I’m Budi Gunawan, the current president of Jakarta’s awakener association.”
The two men shared a short handshake.
” Now, you must be pretty curious why I am here, right?”
The president said with a teasing smile on his face, making Ray’s face twitch a bit.
‘ This old man.. I thought he would be a stern one and not the one that likes to play around the young one like this..’
Nevertheless, the president was successful in gaining Ray’s curiosity, and he nodded solemnly.
Ray inadvertently caught a glimpse of a golden badge pinned to the president’s suit. This man was currently the most respectable awakener in Indonesia and at the same time, the President of Jakarta’s awakener Association as well.
‘He should not be coming here just for a trivial matter..’
The president wasn’t someone anyone could meet just because they wanted to, and for him to come to the orphanage like this, Ray wouldn’t believe it was just because of some small chit-chats.
