Reborn: I'm A Dragon Girl With An OP System

267 Undead Dungeon Part 1



“I am not sure. Your father only told me to stand guard here, so I do not know what is going on inside. As for how long this dungeon has been up, I would say for about a month. But it was only a few days ago that your father entered.” The young man replied.

I couldn’t help but purse my lips. My father had entered a few days ago, so either he kept trying to dive deeper into the dungeon, or he had run into trouble…. And the worst case scenario is that he has already passed. As for this young man, I do vaguely remember someone like him from before I moved. I think he is one of my father’s friend’s sons. Not that it matters. But it does explain why he knows me.

“Alright. I will take a look inside. I need to know what kind of monsters are inside.” I took a deep breath and was about to push the door open when the young man grabbed my arm.

“Please don’t! If you go in and can’t get out. Your father will kill me.” The young man’s face was pale.

I couldn’t help but chuckle. “It’s fine. In this kingdom, no one is stronger than I am.” I said with a smile as I pushed the door open with one hand and pulled away from the young man.

“Wait!” The young man cried out, but I ignored him.

I entered the dungeon to find the same kind of entrance as the previous dungeon. It was a safe zone. I looked around for any signs of my father but nothing. Not even footprints. Well, it was to be expected as this area was basically dust free. “Why didn’t you wait!?” A voice came from behind me. I saw the young man standing there.

“Why did you enter!?” I yelled.

“If I were to let the village elder’s daughter enter the dungeon alone, your father would have my head!” The young man cried out as if he was being wronged.

“Go back!” I said flatly. I was not going to risk this young man dying on me. “You need to go back and go back now! If something happens and you die on me, then how am I supposed to live with that? If you do not go back, I will control your mind and force you out of the dungeon. Choose now! Either leave on your own, and I will force you out.”

“I…” The young man stood there frozen. He seemed unsure of what to choose. But I had no time to wait either.

“Leave now!” My voice was filled with magic as I used dragon speak to control the young man. His eyes dulled, and he slowly turned around and walked out of the dungeon. With him now gone, I could finally do what I needed to do. I did not plan to go very far. I just needed a better idea of the kinds of monsters I would be running into and to do a quick test on the kind of damage I am able to do to them.

I did not enter the hallway right away. I first put up a barrier that led down the hall to keep anything from closing in on me. If my barrier is in the way, no other barrier should be able to close around it, which will allow me an escape route. After the incident in the last dungeon, this was the only countermeasure I could think up that would probably keep anyone from being locked in again.

I walked down the hallway to the end but did not extend out past the threshold into what looked to be a large area with dense fog. I could see gravestones here and there and what looked to be wet, damp ground. “An undead dungeon?” I pursed my lips as I added ten more thin layers to my barrier just in case. I also used a bit of earth magic to make a tether made of stone to wrap around my body. I wanted to make sure I did not get lost in this place. Just to be sure of no mistakes, I also formed a barrier around it that would expand along with it as I moved into the fog. This would also allow me to retract my entire body back to the entrance.

With things secured, I moved deeper into the fog, where more and more gravestones and even larger tombs with open entrances began to appear. “Hmmm? This is a strange dungeon. The tombs alone are like a dungeon within a dungeon.”

I still had yet to see any enemies, but this only lasted until I reached an area with a bunch of run down abandoned houses. They were run down and falling apart. I decided to start my investigation here as I made my way into one of the houses. I kindly made sure the door broke off its hinges to make sure nothing could stop me from exiting.

Luckily I did because I only got two steps inside when I saw a figure in front of me. Semi transparent in color and a ghostly white. It turned and looked over at me. Well, I guess it was looking at me since it had no face but a large wide, bloodied, looking mouth with some black ooze dripping from its mouth. Its mouth opened as it turned and crouched down slightly before suddenly letting out a horrific screech!

“<strong>SKEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!</strong>”

My eyes lit up as I quickly cast multiple fireballs at it, but to my dismay, they went right through the ghostly body. It then extended its arm straight at me, stabbing me in the shoulder with its knife like fingers causing me to cry out in pain: “Ahh!”

“Appraisal!”  I had no choice but to retreat, but I had to at least get a bit of information on the monster that had just attacked me. This was what I came in here for in the first place. I tried to use my sword in my escape, only to have it pass right through the ghostly arm as it retracted back to its body.
