The First Dungeon (part 6)

(Flashback)

Two people were running on the halls of a hospital..

After sometime, when both of them were near a room...one of them looked at the other and said.

"Look!! no matter what happens!! we cannot let him know what just happened!!...atleast not yet..."

the other guy nodded and both of them open the door to enter....only to freeze at the sight infront of them...

"....fuck.."

In front of them was, a really normal looking guy who had his back turned to them as he was talking to the patient...

the patient was a frail but handsome looking guy who had bandages on his head and his right hand as well as a fractured left leg..

Soon the handsome guy noticed the two guys standing at the entrance...

"oh... Bao and Tang are here..."

the young man smiled brightly as the guy with whom he was talking to turned back and looked at both of them...

"....hey ...Jiao.."

the guy named Jiao looked at both of them and smiled.

"oh hey!! Bao and Tang...good thing you two are here...can you two stay with Chao Xiang here.... I have some urgent things that I need to take care of..."

As Jiao said this, Chao Xiang looked at him with a concerned look and said...

"what... you're not staying Jake?"

Jiao gave a reassuring smile and said with a wink..

"I'll be right back, till then both of them will give you company.."

after saying this, he started leaving the room...

as he was leaving the room....he stopped right beside Bao and rest his hand on Bao's shoulder as he said with a smile..

"it'll only take some time...till then, keep him company....okay~"

After saying this....he left..

(Bao Dai's POV)

As Jiao left the room.... I took a deep sigh of relief....

"...guess he wasn't that angry....good thing that he can finally handle his anger issues.."

but soon I noticed that Tang was still pale...

as I asked him why....and he answered...

"Bao....you do know that Jiao calls me Otaku...since I like anime..."

"yeah....what about it?"

I asked what he's getting at but he ignored me and continued..

"and he calls you Champ because you're good at sports.."

"yeah....big deal, so what!!!??"

".....did he call us that?"

"..."

I froze as the realisation has finally started hitting me.....

"....oh..."

the next day, the news spread in our School.....a local troublesome gang was destroyed by an unknown assailant..... it's true that all of them were beaten up.....but... according to some students...

"do you know that all the gang members got several injured but there was one thing that was common with all of them was...."

the student took a deep breath...then continued..

"the assailants broke all the gang members legs..... except their leader...who had all of his limbs broken.."

"damn....to be honest, they deserved it..."

"yeah....but still.... I heard that all of them were crippled with lot of brutality..."

As I was hearing all this, I take a deep sigh..

I knew that this would happen....but what I didn't knew was the level of brutality...

And while I was trying to process this whole situation, the man in question was sitting right beside me .....looking at the comments of his novel...

"argh!!! what do they mean the main character isn't interesting!!! I'm already trying my best you know!!!"

(At the temple entrance)

*CRASH!!!!*

I got thrown to the wall by the golem but It didn't took long before I stood up and went at it again.

It's been a while since I felt this way!!!

"HAHAHAHAHA!!!! AWESOME!!!! THIS REALLY REMINDS ME OF MY OLD TIMES!!!"

I shouted as I charged towards the golem.

*CRASH!!!!!*

It tried to crush me with it's fist but I evaded it and jumped on it, after that I stomped on the dagger that was already stuck in it's eye...

"THIS MIGHT!!! HURT A LITTLE!!!"

It got pushed further in it's eye socket.

*ROAAAAAR!!!!!!*

"RAAAAAAAAA!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!"

but as I was enjoying this, the golem grabbed me and threw me to the wall once again.

<HOST ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND!!!>

As I heard system talking to me, I remember...

"SYSTEM!!!!"

<WHAT IS IT NOW!???>

"USE ALL THE MONEY I CURRENTLY HAVE AND KEEP INCREASING MY STATS UNTIL THEY CAN'T GO UP!!!!"

I remember how I never really increased my stats after the third event....

<wha.....alright fine!!!>

As I was busy in my talk with system, the golem once again charged at me and punched me...but this time.... although I did got hit and it hurt like hell..

"HAHAHAHA!!!! NOW WE'RE GETTING SOMEWHERE!!!!"

even though this time too I was hurt....but unlike before, I was not fatally wounded... seeing this even the golem looked Confused...

Before it can comprehend what just happened...

"HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!"

I grabbed it's hand and said in excitement..

"HAHAHA MY TURN!!!!..."

After that, I used my punch which obviously didn't do much damage...but...

"WHAT'S THIS!!! SO YOU FINALLY DECIDED TO TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY!!!"

I shouted as the golem in front of my used it's hands to lower the impact...but still got pushed back a little...

seeing this, I once again jumped on it but this time I noticed that unlike before where it was swinging it's fists....this thing was actually going for a straight jab on my face .... unfortunately..

"HAHAHAHA I SAW THAT!!!!"

I dodged the jab by an inch and then once again jumped on it's head but this time, I pulled the dagger that was stuck in it's eye..

In order to get me off it, the golem started shaking rigorously and charging towards the walls.

*CRASH*

After crashing with several walls... I was still sticking to it...

"HAHAHA LOOKS LIKE YOU CAN'T GET RID OFF ME SO EASILY!!!!!"

I was bleeding but even then I didn't get off of it...

<HOST I UPGRADED ALL YOUR STATS!!! NOW THEY CAN'T GO UP ANY FURTHER!!!>

As system said this.... I was finally able to pull out the dagger from the eye socket and instantly stuck it in it's other eye...

< THAT WAS YOUR STUPID PLAN!!!>

"DON'T SAY THAT TOO SOON SYSTEM!!! THIS STUPID PLAN IS DEFINITELY GONNA WORK!!!"

I shouted as I remember that in the novel...in order to escape from...the golem....they needed to make it blind.....

"HAHAHA AND NOW!!! SINCE IT CAN NO LONGER SEE !!! THE ONLY THING IT CAN DO RIGHT NOW IS!!!"

before I could finish, the golem started flinging, hitting here and there....not noticing me...as I came from behind and ..

*Whistle~*

the Golem turned back only to be greeted by my fist..

*THWACK!!!!*

*ARGHHHH!!*

unlike before, this time my fist was able to make him fall over the ground and without wasting any time, I started pounding it's face with my fist..

"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!"

*THWACK**THWACK**THWACK*

I didn't stop... I kept pounding it's face with my fist.....my right knuckle with which I was repeatedly hitting it's face started bleeding but I didn't stop...

"HAHAHAHAHAH AHAHAAHAHAH!!!!!"

I didn't stop until my right hand started hurting....and when the pain became uncontrollable... I used my left hand instead..

*THWACK**THWACK**THWACK*

"HAHAHAHAHA!!!! HAHA!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!"

I kept hitting it non stop, while laughing maniacally....and when I finally stopped because my left hand was also in no condition to use... I noticed that the golem no longer had a head.... guess it's all crushed now ..

And with that my heartbeat also became stable...and I finally had a sigh of relief.....

"*pant* *pant*. It's.....it's not moving...."

<because you smashed it's head..>

before I could reply to system....my whole body started hurting terribly..

"ARGH!!! fuck!!!"

<Don't worry..... it's the side effects of [madness combat]....most of your bones are broken and both your hands are also seriously injured...>

as system was saying this....all I could do was whimper....as it was hurting like BITCH...

<well....not that it's anything surprising, after all you did used every possible way to attack that thing...well... whatever...now that you defeated it....why don't we->

but before system could finish.....body of that golem started standing up....

"argh!! ...fuck.."

Soon the head that was totally non existent till now.... started growing back and finally it once again had it's scary and Stoney face....

but Soon it started growing bigger and started growing Rocky spiked over it's back and back of it's hands and knuckles...

and finally, it evolved into something more scary than before..

*ROARRRRRR!!!!!!*

and without any warning, an incoming punch knock me out.....and everything turned blank....
