Leave Me Alone, Heroines!

Acht was about to try and enter to the hole, but, he stopped at the last second and decided to wait for Leislet since she was the leader of this expedition and also to evade any stupid mistakes or problems.

After a few minutes, he saw the woman coming toward him. She seemed to have dealt with a huge number of orcs since it took her all this time to do so.

"Hey. Is it over on your part?" She asked while looking around.

"Yeah. But, I found this. Come take a look." He answered and showed her the deep hole.

She was also slightly skeptical about its importance. I mean, who's in his right mind will put an important hidden place under the house of an orc with no security and no protection?

However, if these two people had one thing going for them, it's that they never let any small details escape their clutches. So, they decided to check out this whole thing.

After that, Leislet was about to pull her staff out and destroy the house. But, Acht stopped her at the last second.

"I will do it." He said.

Then, he pulled out Ooze and shaped it into a huge and solid hammer. Leislet had already seen Ooze so she was not surprised by this demonstration.

Then, after doing that, he dragged the huge hammer. When he reached the house, he reduced its weight and lifted it up in the sky before swinging it with all of his power.

*BOOOM*

The house was immediately blown to smithereens. Huge and small pieces of it flew tens of meters away and landed on other houses.

Leislet watched this and whistled with an impressed look.

"Let's go."

Acht then approached the whole and took a good look at it from up close.

The hole was indeed very deep and dark, but luckily enough, Acht could see the end of it which was not that far.

Then, with a serious look, he jumped inside without any hesitation.

"He's sometimes really reckless," Leislet muttered as she jumped after him.

It was indeed quite weird to see Acht act like that. Since the moment he came here, he somehow became more daring, as if there was something in the dungeon that he must see no matter what. Something that he desired.

Leislet felt that but she didn't mention it since the change was very minuscule and not that important at the moment.

When she landed, she found herself in front of a very small tunnel that went somewhere unknown.

Acht was already inspecting the tunnel and looking for any traps.

"It doesn't seem to be anything special. Let's go." He then bent down slightly and walked inside.

The two then moved inside the extremely dark tunnel with wariness. Leislet had already manifested a small light source in her hand for them to see inside.

It didn't take them long to reach the end of it since it was very short.

What they found themselves in front of, however, was something they didn't expect at all.

It was a huge chamber, the size of half of Leislet's mansion. It was made out of dirt and rocks so it wasn't anything special aesthetically.

What made it unique, however, was the things inside of it. There were sky blue lamps hung up on the walls of the room that gave it a beautiful blue hue.

There were also some crystal-like objects in all corners of the chamber that seemed to not have been touched for long eons.

But, what immediately caught their attention and it was the highlight of the chamber by far is what was in the middle.

A huge crystal object the size of a human being was linked to some black wires. These wires were also linked to the other crystals in the room as if it was supplying energy from them.

"What the fuck?" Acht blurted out with extreme shock.

He could see it clearly, there was someone inside the crystal.

Leislet also saw it and a breath got stuck in her throat. They clearly are seeing a human trapped inside the crystal. The image of the person was blurry but they could discern that he was a man from his silhouette.

"What is a human doing here? Did he get kidnapped by orcs?" Acht muttered.

"No, orcs don't usually kidnap humans. They kill them on the spot." She answered.

Acht was also skeptical about that idea since he saw how orcs acted whenever they saw humans so kidnapping was out of the question.

So, after some contemplation, they decided to get out of the tunnel to check the chamber and see why someone was inside here.

"Could this be the dungeon boss?" Acht asked again as he looked around warily.

"I honestly don't know. I have never heard of a boss like this. Besides, this…thing looks like a human rather than a monster."

They talked with each other while checking everything around them thoroughly before they made their way to the huge crystal.

Up close, Acht could see how sturdy this crystal is. It was so hard that even Leislet wasn't sure that she could break it.

"This human…is he dead?" Acht squinted his eyes, trying to see the facial features of the human inside.

But, as he was doing that, he felt something weird in his head.

A strong headache attacked him and made him bend down slightly while gritting his teeth. It was very sudden so it took him by surprise. The pain was akin to someone hammering a nail inside his head.

What made it even weirder is the whispers he could hear in his head while suffering from the pain. It was as if someone was directly speaking to his mind rather than his ears.

Leislet immediately reached his side and helped him up.

"What's wrong?" She asked worriedly.

"I…don't know…I suddenly feel a strong headache." He said with a painful expression.

Then, another weird thing happened. The crystal started emitting faint blue light out of nowhere.

Acht and Leislet watched this scene with deep shock…that's because the human inside the crystal opened his eyes.
