~ Third Person POV ~

"That asshole?" Inziz eyebrows raised, she gripped her weapon of choice, a zweihander. "Not much I can tell you, but he\'s a bloodthirsty maniac."

"Yeah, I figured." Jionni\'s earlier encounter with the man told him that much. "Do you know any of his weaknesses?"

"Weaknesses?" Inziz furrowed her brows, Mariona glancing from the sidelines. "Not much, just that he tends to lose himself in himself when in that state."

"So… Not really a weakness." Inziz nodded, and Jionni sighed. "Well, at least I can work with that. Chances are, they\'ll be able to reach the town. Inziz, you sure you can handle protecting Mariona?"

"Pfft." Inziz scoffed as she raised her zweihander. "It\'ll take more than a month-long coma to put a dragonewt out of commission."

Smirking, she snapped her fingers and a transparent barrier appeared in front of the gun turret facing the forest.

"There. Proof enough for you?" Jionni smirked, impressed by Inziz\'s chantless barrier magic.

Because of his System, Jionni was able to cast magic without chanting, a benefit he was grateful for. As for the specifics, he had no idea, but he could ask those well-versed in magic, such as Merethyl.

He cupped his chin. \'Come to think of it, the only person I know who uses magic in my Dungeon that isn\'t a monster is Merethyl. I\'ll need to ask the other humans or demi-humans if some of them know how to use magic.\'

Filing that thought for the future, Jionni nodded and bid goodbye to the two protectors. Mariona manned the gun turret while Inziz plopped her ass on a nearby crate.

Heading back down the stairs, he tried communicating with Chip, only to get static. He did the same with Gong and got the same result.

"Shit…" Jionni made haste back to the ground, realizing the fate that befell them.

Setting foot on cobblestone, Jionni made a beeline straight for the monster leaders and Nicholas.

Nicholas, who was busy preparing himself for the fight of his lifetime, armor donned and weapons strapped, noticed Jionni running straight at them.

"Jionni? What\'s the rush?"

"More bad news. The invaders had probably crushed the frontline by now." Nicholas flinched, and so did the rest of the monster leaders. "Prepare yourselves, we\'re going to have a siege."

All of them nodded, quickly scattering to further prepare themselves. Thankfully, all of their gear was placed in a tent nearby, making their preparations faster.

Jionni looked at Nicholas, who was done donning his gear, and let out a sigh.

"Nicholas, where\'s your daughter?" Nicholas raised his eyebrow at the line of questioning, but otherwise didn\'t mind it much.

"At the Human Town. She\'s with the others left behind in case some soldiers make it past here while we\'re fighting."

"Good. I\'ll send her a message to head down to the third floor along with the rest." Nicholas gaped at Jionni\'s decision.

"What? You can\'t be serious!" Nicholas grabbed Jionni\'s shoulder, rage coursing through his veins. "The second and third floors are goddamned death traps! How can they even get there in one piece!?"

"I have a contingency for that." Jionni rummaged through his inventory and took out a stone. It wasn\'t an ordinary stone; it was one used for teleportation.

Nicholas knew what the stone was the moment he saw it.

"This will teleport everybody there into the safe area on the third floor. I\'ve already designated it, and the primates guarding said floor will be their protectors for the time being."

"… You\'re not taking anything by chance, huh…?"

Jionni chuckled depressingly.

"Hey, we might not win this fight. Their leader is just that strong. Let\'s not forget to mention the army he has at his beck and call."

Nicholas sighed and glanced all around him. Various monsters, humans, and demi-humans were all ready and prepared to lay down their lives for their homes.

"… Is it possible to bring the rest there?" Jionni understood what he meant and nodded.

"Yes, it is possible, but that won\'t solve our problem." Jionni gestured to the town he observed getting built within just a month. "If the first floor falls, we\'ll be giving the invaders a valuable stronghold for them to anchor in. You already know what will happen if that comes to pass."

Nicholas sighed, fully understanding the gravity of their situation.

"Damned if we do, damned if we don\'t… Damn cultists…" Nicholas fiddled with his sword that Jionni gifted him, its blade somehow gleaming within the sheath. "Give them an inch, and they\'ll take a mile."

"I see you understand the consequences." Jionni raised his hood and let the mask attached to the hood cover his face. "If they take the first floor, who\'s to say they won\'t take the second? Or the third? If they were just humans, it would be impossible to break through, but with magic, anything is possible."

"Right you are on that." Nicholas smiled grimly as a tap on his shoulder caught his attention. "Luke?"

"I\'m back, sir." Luke smiled as he greeted Jionni as well. "I\'ve done as you requested."

"Great. Now, one last thing." Jionni handed over the teleport stone to Luke, who accepted it with a confused look. "Give this to Alexis, and stay with her. Protect the non-combatants."

"As you wish." Luke accepted and quickly hauled ass.

"Well, with that out of the way, we can now focus on the defense and killing those cultists." Jionni scowled as the cultists were brought to his mind.

"Yeah." Nicholas chuckled slightly. "By the way, if I die here, promise me you\'ll take care of Alexis and the rest."

"Hey, no death flags while I\'m here." Jionni smacked Nicholas upside the head with a glare.

"Right, right." Nicholas laughed heartily as he unsheathed his sword and headed for the closed gates. "Come on, hurry up, lad! We\'ve got some cultists to kill!"

Jionni followed after when Nicholas let slip his original accent.

\'Huh… Irish…\' Jionni wondered as he observed the man.

"That\'s all? What a disappointment." Linuel scowled as he decapitated the last monster. They all used some guns he had never come across before. As much as he wanted to take them, the monsters were able to deposit them in some kind of hammerspace before dying, denying Linuel the chance to take them.

"Such as waste." Linuel shook his head, his body covered in blood from the executions he had just carried out.

Swiftly heading back to his men he left behind in favor of killing those pesky sharpshooters, Linuel thought of more blood coating him and his blade at their next encounter.

Arriving at his destination, Linuel smirked as the soldiers greeted him with a salute. In front of them, dozens upon dozens of black-furred monster corpses lay, their blood filling the area with their scent.

Which served to invigorate Linuel from his disappointment earlier.

"Good job. We march onward, for the glory of the human race!" Raising his sword, Linuel roared, and the soldiers followed suit, their cries echoing around him.

Letting his blade absorb the blood that pooled on the ground, Linuel moaned at the ecstasy that filled his mind.

Whether this was a common occurrence or not, the soldiers all ignored their leader\'s obvious orgasm at the mind-breaking sight.

His eyes ablaze, Linuel\'s sword-arm trembled as his blade continued to absorb blood, drop by drop. As it coalesced around his blade, Linuel could feel the liquid embrace his body with its alluring scent.

It made him crave more, but these monsters wouldn\'t satisfy him anymore.

\'I need to find it! That invisible monster!\' Laughing like a maniac, Linuel\'s blade finished absorbing part of the blood scattered across the area. "This won\'t satisfy me, nor my blade! I need to find it!"

His yells were ignored by the soldiers as they continued to march. Linuel sighed as his post-nut insanity left him.

"After that, Drake is next."

Drake cursed out as he landed with a loud thud, his mind turning and his ears ringing.

"What… The fuck…?" Grabbing his head, Drake blinked numerous times to try and clear his vision. After a few minutes, his vision cleared and he saw a familiar grave right in front of him. "Well… Shit…"

Standing up, Drake dusted himself off as he approached the grave.

"Hello again, Erika. I promise I\'ll come back next time, but for now, I have to go back." Running his hand across the length of the broken sword, Drake leaped from his spot and made a beeline straight for the Dungeon.

\'It took me more than an hour to reach there by walking. Running will take me probably half an hour… Shit… The Dungeon better be standing when I return…\'

Running through the forest, Drake took the fastest route towards the Dungeon, and logic dictated that a straight line was the fastest way to travel.

Trees? Boulders? None of that mattered to Drake, who needed to arrive in Jionni\'s Dungeon without a moment\'s notice.

\'Next time, I\'m asking Jionni for a teleport stone.\'

Ignoring the various yelps of animals and monsters nearby, Drake continued with his hurried pace, the gauntlets in his hands shimmering ever so slightly.
