The dungeon was filled with a vile stench; Emily entered inside with the succubus enforcement team and their support team of healing fairies; she was apprehensive after hearing the words of Zestria and her colleague on the way here, Emily's chest long churning and filled with worry and pain.
'Are you doomed? Will I never see your cheeky face again… Why do you have so much effect on me? We've met a few times… it's not just your scent, the essence… I feel more alive than in my hundreds of years when you were there, a simple orc… with your cute almond skin listening to me while peeking at my tits….'
Her eyes looked at the dreary dungeon void of all noise; there were no corpses so far which was a good sign.
'Maybe he managed to escape…' Emily wished to herself.
"Captain Zestria! The huge mana source seems to have vanished, I am not sure what this means, but the last signature was two hundred metres east of here. That's likely the poacher's site."
A blonde succubus handed a small device to Zestria, who showed a slight frown; the fact that it vanished either means it went dormant after killing the poacher, or rather the [Red Skull] itself was killed.
"Troublesome…" Zestria muttered as she looked back to her team; armed in light armour, they seemed weak in close combat, but that's how Zestria's unit worked, playing on that misconception to fool enemies into a false sense of security.
"Let's move faster; the life of our target and meal ticket relies on our quick response!"
"OH!" The succubi shouted, causing Emily to frown.
'Meal ticket? What do they mean… no way!?' She suddenly stared daggers towards Zestria, who laughed and turned away, jogging forward, her soft rear swaying madly with her tail raised in the air, now equipped with a sharp, spear-like blade.
Emily was a little clumsy, but her heart was racing to feel worried that she might not meet Raven again; it caused her to feel determined, her tiny green legs darting after the agile succubi who began to hover in the air, even the fairies rushed faster than her.
"Let's go~ mother of green earth, empower my roots!"
The moment her words ended, a burst of roots began to push through the dungeon floor, almost like a surfboard for Emily as her body began to shoot forward like a bullet from a gun, her face focused; she didn't have a danger level above SSS for no reason.
She navigated the tight cavern with ease, her strong roots almost fused with her green feet as she ignored the slight burns from the flames billowing from the roof, burning her flesh and vines; Emily didn't care; her heart was filled with anticipation, holding her ample breasts with both hands she flew towards the direction that Zestria's device showed earlier.
'Raven…. Raven…. Alistair…. Be okay… I'm coming… I'll save you!'
With a rapidly beating heart, she approached the final entrance, the uneven walls tearing her shoulder as green blood oozed from her shoulder, but she didn't wince nor show pain; instead, her eyes focused on the sight before her, the man she was falling for was lying on the ground his body unmoving.
"No…!? Raven…. RAVEN!"
Her roots began to crumble as her speed increased even more, the brown roots snapping under the velocity of her speed before her soft green body flew through the air, tears streaming down her face as she closed her eyes, hoping to land on his body and at least feel his warmth one last time.
'Please… Mother of the green earth… please… help him…. Ahh!?'
Raven was sleepy; the moment he killed the colossal skeleton, it felt like he was awake for several weeks before lying on the ground with a shit-eating grin on his face.
'I kill that fucker!'
"Hahaha… ouch…"
Almost an hour after the battle, he began to stir, his body stretching with loud cracks, feeling amazing as if he had just visited a massage with a happy ending; rolling onto his back, noticing the melted flesh, his missing arm was now back, the skin and flesh even more beautiful.
Something else more magnificent was the inside of his abdomen; a small and pretty purple core was hovering in the darkness, the pure energy now forming a tiny amount, but it felt like a significant improvement as it now began to cycle naturally instead of needing to take it all from a female.
He took a moment to rest, breathing deeply, as he noticed the strange sensation of the dungeon change. It was fierce and filled with lava and flames when the Ragovad appeared, but now it was quiet and calm, but still, the kobolds didn't respawn.
'Although if they did, I'd be fucked….'
"I levelled 3 times, right..?"

Raven wasn't in any rush wanting to take his time.
Instead, he sprawled out, wondering if there was any loot from the boss, only to find that even the colossal sword began to fade slowly into nothing, a mere pile of bone dust with a blue tinge and a small ring with a black and blue gemstone intertwined gleaming at the top of the pile.
He crawled over to the ring because his legs were a little soft and hard to move still.
'Oh? It's the same as this ring of Lilith's but with larger storage and no special effects? Let's use this as mine… I can now let her enter the dungeon with me, so thankfully, this gift can return to the right hand.'
He rolled onto his back, the blue dust blowing around him as his ears could feel the vibration and sound of something approaching rapidly, the sound didn't trigger Raven's danger sense, but he began to tense his legs, trying to regain feeling in them.
Several moments later…
A woman's green body began to fly through the air, Raven's eyes widening as he noticed her approaching his body, her eyes tightly closed!
'Oi oi oi! Emily, don't be diving on an injured orc with a dryad cannonball!'
Raven forced himself to his feet, the dull ache now gone; as his legs listened to him, standing with his lower body in the horse stance, he spread his arms as her curvy body slammed into him.
His arm wrapped around her soft buttocks, with one hand reaching out to catch her head softly as they twirled in several circles before finally stopping with a dust screen forming from their bodies.
Raven noticed small tears painting her cheeks, about to wipe them away; her big green eyes opened, blinking several times as she saw his face, Emily's mouth opened, seeming to speak, but nothing came out, repeating the process as more tears began to pour from her eyes like a little girl.
"Raven? Are you okay? Please say you won't die and leave me. I was so worried, you know!?" She asked, like checking he wasn't a ghost or spectre in rapid succession, her worry and concern evident on her face as countless flowers bloomed with each emotion and question she asked.
'This woman is so cute!!'
"That's me, my cute dryad receptionist. I have come back from the dead for you to stop crying!"
When his cheeky reply finished, her face approached his rapidly, pressing her lips against his as she kissed him with a clumsy but passionate kiss.
Emily held her breath and sucked on his lips passionately, her vines blooming a vibrant pink as they wrapped around his back.
A soft oozing sap poured onto his naked body, removing all the dirt and dust on Raven before making him feel relaxed and more comfortable, as he opened his mouth, shocking her as he entangled her sweet-tasting tongue with his, sucking on her with a rough and passionate kiss, deeply intoxicating the cute dryad in the middle of a dungeon.
Their bodies slowly spun around as if dancing, entwined as he held her tightly, feeling a sense of happiness at the pure and passionate feelings she directed towards him.
At the same time, his kiss caused Emily's mind to turn blank, her fluttering vines like a colourful festival as the succubi and fairies finally arrived at the strange sight.
