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

268 Undead Dungeon Part 2



“What is up with that health? And on top of that, I can’t even hurt it!” I cried out as I quickly used my tether to pull me back to the entrance of the hallway. I held my shoulder, which was now bleeding quite badly. “High heal!”

As I reached the entrance of the hallway, I quickly ran back to the entrance of the dungeon and passed through the door. Only when I got outside did I sit on the ground and try to attend to my wound.

“Young miss!” The young man who I sent out earlier cried out. He looked at my shoulder in horror.

“I’m fine. I just got careless. And to be honest, it was good you stayed out here after I sent you out. You might have died.” I said as I took some bandages out of my inventory and wrapped up my shoulder. Healing magic was not working, so I had to figure out why. “I am heading back to the village. You can head back as well because I am setting up a barrier around the entrance. The only one who will be able to pass through it is my father.” ‘

“Yes, ma’am!” I have no idea why this young man is suddenly being so polite to me but whatever.

After I sent him off, I set up the barrier and then flew up to the village. Blood was still pouring out of my wound at a steady pace which was really worrying.

My health was also steadily dropping as well. I guess bleeding this badly would cause such a thing. To be honest, I think this is the first time I have been hurt so badly without being able to quickly take care of the wound. “I will need Diablo to take a look at it. There seems to be something wrong with where I got stabbed.”

“Diablo!” I yelled out as I entered the house. Diablo quickly appeared in front of me.

“Master! This!?” Diablo’s look of concern was a bit unexpected. I knew he wanted to stay in his world for my mana, but he had genuine concern in his eyes.

“I need you to take a look at it, come to my room,” I said as I did my best to keep the blood from dripping onto the floor. I was trying to make it to my room before my mother saw me, but I guess I was a bit too late for that.

“Faith, what happened!?” My mother cried out.

“It’s nothing. There is something wrong with the wound where healing magic doesn’t work. Diablo will look at it for me.” I explained and quickly made my way to my room. I wasn’t going to stop my mother from following me, though. She would cause a fuss if I did.

When I entered my room, I removed my chest plate and, with red cheeks, pulled up my undershirt so that Diablo could get a better look at my shoulder. It was embarrassing since a man would be seeing me with my shirt off, but I had no choice in this matter. My armor and undershirt obstructed the view of the wound. I, of course, made sure to cover my chest with my arm as I turned around and faced him. Trying to hide my embarrassment, I asked: “Can you look at the wound and see if there is anything strange about it?”

“Yes, one second.” Diablo did not seem phased at all to see me topless, which was kind of a dig at my womanly pride but well, whatever. This made things less embarrassing. But one thing was for sure it hurt like hell when he touched the wound. “Master, this will probably hurt a lot, but there seems to be something in the wound that is causing it to bleed more than it should and is probably what is keeping healing magic from healing the wound.”

“Alright…” I took a metal rod from my inventory and used it to bite down on, as I said in a muffled tone. “Do it.”

Diablo nodded and, with his slender fingers, reached into my wound that was the size of a fist and dug deep into it. “Argh!” It hurt. It hurt a lot. I could see my mother tearing up, but she still stayed quiet. Although it was only a few seconds that went by before Diablo pulled his fingers out of my wound, but it felt like an eternity. The pain of having someone dig through your wound like that was really bad.

“Got it….” Diablo held a strange black worm looking thing between his fingers. “This is?”

“A wraith worm. Where did you run into a wraith?” Diablo asked as he looked at me in shock.

“Inside the dungeon. I ran into it while trying to see what kind of monsters were there.” I explained as I began healing my wound. This time it was finally healing. “Diablo, can you turn around for a second?” I asked. It was hard to heal and cover myself up with only one arm.

“Ah yes….” Diablo did as I asked as I also turned around and continued to heal myself. With high heal, it only took a few seconds. Only then did I grab a shirt and put it on.

“Thanks. Now explain to me why this thing can block healing magic. And how can a wraith that I can’t hit with weapons or magic stab me in the arm and even implant such a thing inside me?” I was bombarding him with questions, but I needed to know as much as I could. I had never run into a monster like this wraith before. It would be different if I could attack it, but all my attempts failed, and at the same time, I was attacked in return without being able to even guard myself. It stabbed through my armor and even my natural dragon defenses. I would not be able to find my father if I could not kill these things. But for all I know, he might have fallen to such a monster himself. And this thought scared me.
