Transfer Into Npc World - 14 Cave Attacks

It was dark when we enter the cave and Diana cast some light magic to make the cave brighter. We started to delve further into the cave, Hugh feels weird as we did not encounter any monster until now. He told us to be careful as he had a bad feeling about it.

The cave was pretty big and the light magic could not brighten up all the place. Hugh recommends us to stick together and attack together if there any monster appears. We keep walking further to the place that has the Mythril ore.

When we arrive there, Hugh was shocked as there were no Mythril Ore. He says that this place used to have a lot of the ore but somehow it has gone.

“Maybe someone already mines all of them?”

Hugh disagrees with my statement as the miners afraid to go into this cave because of the monster. He also told me that usually there will be some wolf and bear here or some goblin but we still not saw any monster yet.

We keep searching for the ore until suddenly we hear a high tone and loud noise, screeching in the cave.

“HREEEEEEEE!!!!”

“HREEEEEEEE!!!!….HREEEEEEEE!!!!”

We start to look around but their nothings in the cave. The sound kept getting louder and Hugh starts to shout.

“Diana! Cast some fire protection now!” Hugh prepares his shield and asks me and Diana to stay behind him.

Diana quickly cast fire protection as we also quickly get behind Hugh. I ask Hugh why we were hiding behind him.

“Earthen Drake…”

Something then crawls out from the ground as I was shocked seeing an Earthen Drake and it starts to spit out a fire as Hugh uses his Shield Protection Skill on time to tank up all the damage and protect us.

The Earthen Drake was about ten feet tall with a body covered in scale and dirt. Its teeth were sharp and his claw is as big as our head and that fire would burn us instantly but luckily Hugh managed to use his skill.

Even though Hugh use Shield Protection, the damage he received was massive. I quickly told Diana to heal Hugh and I will attack the drake while Hugh tanking his attack.

“Solace of Light!” Diana uses this skill on me and Hugh.

I check the status effect of Diana’s skill and check the Earthen Drake stats.

I take the time to get my sword from my inventory, I know that my strongest sword was the ChocoBanana but I should use a one-handed sword instead to make sure I able to hit the drake rapidly and be able to dodge its attack. I come out from Hugh behind and start to attack the Earthen Drake.

The Earthen Drake notices that I try to attack him as it roars and lets out a burst of flame towards me instead, making me engulfs in flame. The drake attack speed was even faster than I expected it would be. Even with Diana buff, I could still feel the burns through my skin and clothes as I scream in pain. I start to run as I would give me some time to use my health potions and fire resistance potions but the drake catches me before I can use it.

I was hit by the drake fire breath and the burning sensation was getting all over my body. My mouth is filled with blood and I gurgle as I attempt to catch my breath. I look up at the drake who seems amused by this display of weakness.

I saw that Hugh was taunting the drake to make the drake lose its focus on me. The Earthen Drake fell for Hugh taunt and look at Hugh as Diana throw the fireball at the drake. It hits the drake right between its eyes causing it to let out a roar of anger. I quickly use my health and fire resistance potion as I take a deep breath and prepare for another attack.

Suddenly a lightning bolt hit me from behind and I gasp in pain. I turned around and notice that a figure standing there holding a sword in one hand and wearing leather armor. The figure looks like it has been made of smoke though, making it hard to tell what kind of creature it is. The mysterious figure then disappears.

While the drake still growling in pain, Hugh keeps slashing it and Diana keeps attacking with her fireball. I manage to get back up and stab the drake, The Earthen Drake tries to go underground but Hugh quickly uses his skill to stun the drake making it paralyzed and we keep attacking it.

When we still attacking the drake we hear another screeching, suddenly an another Earthen Drake appear behind Diana. I shout to Diana to watch out her back as there was another Drake. It lets out a roar behind Diana and another drake starts to attack Diana.

Hugh rush to protect Diana from the Drake. Unfortunately, Hugh doesn’t even make it halfway when the drake bites Diana in the neck killing her instantly. Hugh screams for Diana’s death as we both saw Diana’s body get tears apart by the drake.

Hugh decides to go after the drake that kills Diana and tried to attack it but the drake dodges his attack and the drake hits Hugh, knocking him to the ground.

I quickly run towards Hugh but the first drake has been released from the stun effect. The first drake swings his claw at me, I managed to block it but the impact is so strong that I was sent flying through the cave wall.

I was lying in the ground as I saw Hugh was fighting with those monster alone. I tried to stand up but my body feels numb, my vision starts to get darker by seconds. I tried to shout to Hugh than he should run away. My vision was getting dark and darker and then I blackout.
