Counter Dungeon-Delving

The people of the alpha plane have made it their hobby to enter the dungeons of other worlds and conquer them. Naturally not everyone is happy with this as dark undercurrents begin to work against the conquerors. As some people die in the dungeons they are made an offer. To give up their humanity in order to live on. Guy, a veteran carrier, is one of them, he can't bear to leave his family alone and accepts. From then on he must fight in the dungeons but as a monster while simultaneously continuing his life in the alpha plane in the shape of a human. Jade, an elite adventurer, also accepts the offer but her intent is solely to get revenge on those who killed her and make humanity suffer for her life. Monica, a little girl not native to the alpha plane is pulled into the happenings due to her childish innocence.

Monica (1)

<This is the second time today that I've been told I'm an angel. Maybe I need to work on my kind's image a little more. Now, little one do you wish to live?>

Monica doesn't want to die!

<Yes but do you wish to live?>

Yes, yes, yes. Monica wishes to live! Please miss angel make the hot and cold go away! Monica can't breathe.

<Are you willing to give up your humanity in order to live on? You will feel better if you accept my offer.>

Monica wants to feel better! Monica is willing to do anything to feel better!

<Why do I feel evil for taking a child's cry for help as acceptance of a contract? Sigh, not like the conditions will change anyway. Target has accepted the contract. Begin the process of soul extraction.>

The hot and cold go away and Monica feels so sleepy. Miss angel must have decided to help Monica since Monica is a good girl. Monica will sleep now until Monica isn't tired anymore...

...

...

...

<Wake up Monica. If you keep sleeping you will become an actual statue, you know.>

Miss angle? Monica is still a little sleepy. Can't Monica sleep a little longer?

<No, you can't. We need you to be conscious to make the final adjustments for your new form. Also, can you stop speaking in the third person? Just say I!>

Is miss angel angry? Did Monica do something wrong? Was Monica a bad girl?

<Sigh. Calm down you did nothing wrong. I guess I can't ask for too much at once. For now, could you please wake up?>

Fine, Monica will wake up to make miss angel happy. Monica is still in a cave but the blue thingy is gone...

Is Monica taller? Monica has to check.

!!

Why is Monica's arm grey and fat? Did Monica become old and wrinkly with grey skin? Monica doesn't want that!

<Calm down Monica. This is only temporary, you can have your cute little arms back. Now, please open your status.>

But... but mommy and papa said I shouldn't open it until I'm older. Monica has to listen to mommy and papa!

<Look here you little- no, no, Navi, you have to stay strong. Monica, you are already older than when your parents told you not to open it, right? I'm sure you are old enough now.>

If miss angel says so it must be true! Monica will open her status for the first time! Status open!

Why does the status say that Monica isn't human? Monica is confused. Is the status a bad guy who is lying to Monica? Yes, he must be a very bad guy so Monica won't talk to him anymore! Monica doesn't like the status!

<Now, now. How do I say this? Look, Monica, to make the pain you felt go away I had to do something very special. You aren't human anymore.>

BUT MOMMY AND PAPA SAID THAT THINGS THAT AREN'T HUMAN ARE EVIL. MONICA DOESN'T WANT TO BE A MONSTER!

<Stop screaming Monica. I can't concentrate if you throw a tantrum like that.>

MONICA DOESN'T WANT TO BE A MONSTER! MONICA WANTS TO BE A HUMAN! MAKE MONICA HUMAN AGAIN! MONICA WANTS TO SEE MOMMY AND PAPA NOT STINKY MISS ANGEL!

<Shut it! Your parents are dead! Did you forget? A bunch of adventurers came and murdered your entire village in cold blood. Then, they chased you and you were killed by a slime. I offered you a contract, you accepted, and now you are a clay golem so deal with it!>

Mommy and papa are dead?

<Oh no, now I've gone and done it.>

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

MONICA WAS WRONG YOU AREN'T MISS ANGEL!

<Finally, at least you managed to understand that.>

YOU ARE AN EVIL WITCH. MONICA WILL TELL THE CHURCH THAT YOU ARE A WITCH AND THEN THEY WILL MAKE YOU DEAD!

<Don't call me a witch! And stop throwing a tantrum!>

MONICA WILL RUN AWAY. MONICA DOESN'T KNOW THIS CAVE BUT MONICA KNOWS THAT THERE HAS TO BE THE EXIT.

<She is subconsciously using the dungeon map to find the exit. I'd call her a genius if she wasn't such a brat. We'll recall you now, once you wake back up your body will look like it did before.>

MONICA WILL... so sleepy!

...

...

...

Monica is awake!

Monica has normal arms again! Was it all a bad dream and miss angel isn't a witch?

Monica is still not human...

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! Why is Monica not a human? Monica is a good girl and never did anything bad.

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

Monica doesn't want this anymore.

<Oh be like that then! I don't care anymore.>

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

"Is someone crying over here? Hey there little one, did you get lost?"

That's not the voice of the witch. A pretty lady is standing at the door.

"Are you the real miss angel?"

"Haha, I'm just Melody, not an angel. And what's your name?"

"Monica is called Monica!"

"I see, Monica is a very pretty name. It fits a cute girl like you. Did you get separated from your parents?"

"Hic, hic. Waah. Bad people came and Monica ran away then hot and cold and a witch that wasn't a miss angel made me not be human and said that my parents were killed by adventurers! Waaaah."

"Shush. It's alright to cry if you're sad. I'm here for you. Now please tell me what happened slowly."

Miss Melody is so nice. She must be a miss angel too.
