Raised in Dungeon

"Hahahahaha.... HAHAHAHAHA... I really thought I was going to die." Adam said as he walked up to them, with a creepy smile and fire on his back.

"Aren't you done yet?! I have already done here; if it takes too long, I'll take them from you!" Ralph shouted.

As Janet, Isaac, and Stannard gazed ahead, a sense of dread consumed them. Suddenly, all three looked back, their eyes locking on the approaching figure of Ralph. Ralph was walking towards them with a pile of gruesome warrior corpses behind him.

Despite the knowledge that they had expended a considerable amount of mana in their previous battle, the trio held a glimmer of hope that they still had enough strength left to take on Ralph. That hope soon faded as they realized that Adam, the one they had been so desperate to defeat, was still alive.

A sense of urgency filled their minds as they understood they needed to use every scrap of mana they possessed to defeat Adam. Though it meant leaving themselves vulnerable to Ralph, they knew there was no other way.

"I told you, don't interfere with my fight!!!" Adam shouted at Ralph.

"That's because you've been messing around! Use all your abilities; it's just them after all."

"I meant it that way, after pushing me this far, I have no choice but to get serious," Adam replied.

'He's not serious yet?! His strength from earlier hasn't been serious? Was that just a bluff? Isaac thought.

Janet then said,

"Right now, our best option is to kill Adam first. No more holding back, just attack him with everything you've got-"

Suddenly, chains rushed towards them.

-THRUST

"I get you," Adam muttered.

The chain pierced Janet's stomach. They were shocked and unable to react immediately to the attack.

'His chain is faster than the last one!' Stannard thought.

Isaac immediately used his sword to cut the chain, but it was too late; Janet was directly pulled by Adam close to him.

As she was pulled, Janet looked forward. Adam's arms, chest, and head were now wrapped in his own chains.

'W-What is he trying to do?!' Janet thought.

Adam clenched his right fist, and an aura surged through his body. As he tightened his grip, the fist began to emit a pulsing glow, an aura that seemed to enter into his very being. He aimed his fist at Janet's body and struck out, the energy within him driving the blow with incredible force.

"God Blessing: Perses Tantrum"

Adam hit Janet's body with his fist.

-BOOOM!

Instantly, a massive explosion occurred. Making the castle tremble once more. The blast was so powerful that it sent Stannard and Isaac flying backward, even though they were not standing too close to Adam.

"SO WHAT CAUSED THE EXPLOSION ON THE GATE BEFORE WAS HIS GOD BLESSING!!!" said Isaac.

'I mistakenly thought it was the witch of dread's magic. Or maybe they made us think so because when the explosion happened, the witch used amnis to protect them from the blast,' Stannard thought.

As they were thrown back, the mist covered everything.

The once grand front now looked terribly destroyed. The floor was charred and cracked, the fountain reduced to rubble, the once lush garden was now a lifeless wasteland, and the smell of smoke intensified. That place looked like something catastrophic had happened there. Janet's high-level fire amnis had ravaged the palace while Adam's explosion added to the chaos. Flames licked at the walls everywhere you looked and billowed towards the sky. The place burned like hell.

Isaac could feel a sticky liquid on his face. At first, he thought it was his sweat from the thunderous heat. But he realized it was too thick for sweat.

The fog began to clear, and he could finally see what was happening. What was stuck on his face was not sweat, but blood. And that blood was also splashed on his armor.

ƥαṇdα-ηθνε|·ƈθm "Oh my god!" Isaac muttered as he saw the scene in front of him.

"JANET!!!" shouted Stannard.

The impact of Adam's god's blessing was brutal. In front of him were a pair of lying legs wearing holy knight armor. Unmistakably, it was the remains of Janed's exploded body. In front of them were traces of blood on the floor, along with Janet's brain and entrails. And the blood reached them. So Isaac and Stannard's clothes and faces were splattered with Janet's blood.

"SH*T! The reason he's still alive after getting into Janet's fireball is because he's already used to the sensation of burn and explosion!" Isaac said.

'Most likely, the explosion he made with his god's blessing also affected himself. That is why he covered the important parts of her body with her chain. His body accepted that explosion many times!' Isaac thought.

"Who's next?" asked Adam.

Isaac finally determined himself to kill Adam with all his might. He chooses to forget Ralph for now. As Isaac gripped his sword tightly, he uttered,

"Abare, Thracam"

A large amount of water flowed out from Isaac's sword, enveloping all parts of it. Seeing that, Adam thought

'Armacar who can create water with mana, such a weapon should be useless in battle, but it would be a different story if he used his god's blessing.'

Adam lengthened the chain a little, then grasped it.

"COME ON!" he shouted.

Isaac came forward, followed by Stannard.

Isaac swung his sword, and the water splashed up with each swing and turned to ice. So each swing produced a large amount of ice, shooting toward Adam.

Adam pushed the ice away with his chain. But the ice was not deflected well.

'The ice froze my chain,'

That means any object hit by the ice will freeze. If Adam blocked or deflected the ice, it would only freeze his entire body. So there was no other choice but to run from his attack.

While attacking Adam without giving him an opening, Isaac thought,ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

'Giving my mana periodically into the armacar, plus activating god's blessing simultaneously, is consuming much of my mana. I should kill Adam here, after which I can leave Ralph to the others.'

Even so, he was already quite desperate. There was no guarantee that help would come. But he still had to fight.

Stannard helped, he blocked Adam and attacked him with his sword; of course, Adam managed to hold him off, but that time Stannard's goal was not to attack Adam. He let go of the shield and touched Adam's chest.

"What's this?!" Adam immediately pushed him away. Stannard had just touched his chest with his left hand. Nothing hurt, but there was a palm print on his chest.

"I caught you," Stannard said.

Stannard smeared his own hand with his blood. And using that blood, he marked Adam.

Adam immediately tried to erase the mark, but it was no use. The mark stuck there like he had a birthmark that wouldn't go away.

'What's the point of this mark?! Most likely, this is his god's blessing. But if the conditions of use are simple, it's usually not something destructive," Adam thought.

Stannard pointed his hand at Adam.

"God's blessing: North and South."

Suddenly Adam's body was thrown backward.

After being thrown, his body was pulled towards Stannard.

'He can push and pull people with that hand!' Adam thought.

But Adam could see the risk of using his godly blessing. Stannard's face looked pained, and he held his left hand with his right.

'North and East, my god's blessing makes me able to pull and push people who have my palm mark. Unfortunately, using it isn't easy. The bigger the person, the harder it is to pull. I need to be physically strong to control it,' Stannard thought.

Adam, who already knew, immediately commented on it.

"Hahaha you're unlucky that your opponent is me! My weight is almost 300 kilos! It should be quite difficult for you to lift my body! Besides, your body was already destroyed by my previous attack! What else can you do?!"

"Of course, just to support my friend."

Adam looked to the side. An enormous ice spear flew in front of Isaac. There was a circle of amnis underneath that kept the ice flying.

"Die!"

The huge spear quickly shot at Adam like a cannon.

"SH*T!" Adam said.

Unable to dodge, Adam wrapped himself in his chains again, covering his head and body.

'It's useless; the ice will freeze your whole body. And even if you use a blast, your hands will still touch the ice, and you'll freeze instantly,'

Then Adam's hands glowed, activating his god's blessing. But he didn't hit the ice, but the ground before him.

"?!!"

-BAM!

The explosion threw Adam's body all the way up and out of the influence of Stannard's blessing. Adam lost his left leg in return because his chains did not protect it.

Adam's body was still, not moving.

"Oh, did he faint to save his life?" said Ralph.

Ralph lazily held his whip and prepared to fight.

"Looks like it's my turn," said Ralph.

Stannard turned back to face Ralph, as did Isaac, who immediately ran towards Stannard.

'So, what is the plan? My mana is already thin, and Stannard's condition is also severe. Even this guy has seen all of our abilities. We already can't give him a surprise attack. If this guy is as strong as Adam, we won't be able to win!

Suddenly. A chain quickly pierced their backs and pierced through to the floor.

"AHK!"

"BUAKH!"

Blood poured out of Stannard and Isaac's mouths.

"D-didn't he faint?!" thought Stannard.

"I- Iam sure he was!" thought Isaac.

"HEY! WAIT! DON'T DO IT HERE!" shouted Ralph, who quickly tried to get away from there.

Adam, who had looked unconscious, regained consciousness in no time. He shot his chains at Isaac and Stannard and then pulled his body closer to them.

"God's blessing: Perses Tantrum."

As the sky lit up with a bright light, Isaac and Stannard looked back, scared. They knew they had underestimated the power of their opponent, and they vowed never to do so again, but there will be no "again" anymore.

They could hardly believe their eyes as they watched a glowing fist hurtling towards them, moving so fast it looked like a falling meteor. Before they could react, the fist crashed into them with a deafening BAM!

This was the third explosion that night, marked by the defeat of three Rounds members at the hands of just one Dolls member. The impact of that explosion had left Isaac and Stannard sprawled on the ground; Isaac was still alive because of his god's blessing. He used his ice to freeze the fire and the impact. But still, he is dying, struggling to catch his breath. Then he looks at Stannard in front of him. After finally regaining full consciousness and being able to see everything clearly, Isaac realizes the one thing he sees is only Stannard's bodyless head.
