Hidden Dungeon??

After a few minutes of riding a carriage in the southern section of May, you can arrive at the Zura Forest entrance.

Vince Leviathan and Jack Pascal are going through the Zura Forest.

"We're here."

Vince Leviathan remarked solemnly, holding a map.

This is a hidden dungeon that Jack Pascal discovered by mistake.

He wanted to go in, but there was an ancient writing on the door.

He opted not to enter because he couldn't read it and it seemed unsafe.

However, in the midst of his thoughts, he recalls Vince Leviathan, who is skilled at this sort of thing.

So he returns to May City to bring him here.

Unfortunately, after deciphering the ancient inscription, he discovers that they require three individuals to enter the dungeon; otherwise, there is no way out.

There are three doors, so it's evident that they'll head in different directions from here.

"Wait a minute, why... did... you... not... wait... for... me?""

Looking behind them, a third member approaches them, clearly fatigued.

Aqua Infinity is a water mage who is also a healer.

Unfortunately, despite her average beauty, her stamina is lacking, which is why no one wanted to collaborate with her.

After all, no one wanted baggage.

When they see her state, they sigh.

If they weren't childhood friends, they'd deny knowing her.

Vince Leviathan takes the role of a gunner, while Jack Pascal fulfills the role of a warrior.

They eventually decided not to enter for the time being and to take a short break.

Then the two males recalled, "We forgot to buy a smartphone for her."

Communication is essential in all situations, but it appears that it is not working this time.

"What should we do?" they ask with their eyes.

They would feel bad if something bad happened to her, so they planned to return to the city but that immediately changed when they noticed a familiar rectangular object in her palm.

"Wait a second, where did you get that?""

Both Vince Leviathan and Jack Pascal are taken aback that she has the same device as them.

"You forgot, didn't you?" she asked irritably. "Today is my birthday, and my friend gave me this communication device."

As soon as she said that, the shame they felt grew stronger, and they began to look away from her, clearly embarrassed that they had forgotten her birthday.

When it's their birthday, she always cooks their favorite delicacies and makes them feel like they're at a festival, which is why they feel bad about her.

Despite her inability to be an adventurer, she is a fantastic wife material.

She can cook, clean, and do everything else that a typical wife does in the home.

However, she isn't interested in romance and has no aspirations to marry at the age of 24, but she is interested in the feeling of adventure.

Despite being a skilled healer, she is born with a frail body.

What a shame!

In any case, they swallow their pride and pull out the smartphone they purchased.

She is startled to learn this, enough that she forgot her annoyance, given that they both have smartphones.

"Wow! I didn't anticipate the two of you having this. According to my pal, this smartphone is only accessible in one shop in the city's northern outskirts."

They recall the shop <Tech Haven> after hearing what Aqua Infinity claimed.

They assumed they were not the only customers in the shop.

It's obvious but because the shop is in isolated area— Nevermind.

They decided to continue their dungeon attack because the situation was already solved.

They entered the dungeon through three separate doorways after touching each other's smartphones.

"I'm not sure if this will work, but I'll use the group call function later, okay?""

"Okay!"

"Okay."

"Good."

Vince Leviathan leads their crew and issues orders.

He is always the team's leader since he is the only one who can use his brain more efficiently than the others.

Vince Leviathan teleports to an unknown space as soon as they enter.

This location is completely white and nothing but white.

He instantly opened his smartphone and used the app's group call feature.

His smartphone is ringing and waiting to be answered by his teammates.

Aqua Infinity: Oh, I'm linked.

Jack Pascal: Me, too. I'm linked.

Vince Leviathan: Okay. It appears that we can always use this tool now and then. Let us then begin our operations. First, tell me what you observe.

Aqua Infinity: I'll go first. I teleported to a dark narrow cave filled with torches.

Jack Pascal: I'm in a box.

Vince Leviathan and Aqua Infinity: What?

Jack Pascal: You heard correctly. I'm not sure why, but I'm stuck in a box and can't move.

'F*CK!'

Vince Leviathan had no idea what to do next.

To begin with, they have no information about this underground dungeon other than the fact that it requires three individuals to enter.

However, if he thinks about it, this could be the explanation.

Vince Leviathan: Aqua.

Aqua Infinity: Yes?

Vince Leviathan: Explore your surroundings slowly and cautiously.

Aqua Infinity: Got it!

Vince Leviathan: Also, don't hang up. It's much better if we keep chatting. I'm going to look around my surroundings as well.

He walks blindly in this white vacuum.

Despite having visited several dungeons like this before, he is nevertheless terrified because he has no idea what is there.

Still, he is relieved since he can communicate with his teammate.

Aqua Infinity: Wait a second, I've already reached the cave's end.

Vince Leviathan: Really?

Aqua Infinity: Yeah, and I saw a lot of buttons with images above them. There are exactly 20 buttons.

Vince Leviathan: So, what's the first button?

Aqua Infinity: It's a fist pointing to the left. Do you want me to push it?

Vince Leviathan: Sure. However, be prepared to activate your water barrier if it's a trap.

Aqua Infinity: Gotcha!

Vince Leviathan danger sense become tingling.

He dives immediately and narrowly avoids the danger.

When he looked back, he saw a floating stone in the shape of a fist heading to his left, then it vanished.

He immediately grasped what was going on.

Vince Leviathan: I think I know what's going on. Is there a green at the top of the bottom, Aqua?

Aqua Infinity: No.

Vince Leviathan: So, what are the other buttons?

Aqua Infinity: Then there's fire on the right, water on the left, a fist on top, a tornado, an ice spike on the bottom, a rock on top, spikes on the left and right...

He frowns in surprise as Aqua Infinity explains all 20 buttons.

After all, this is a trial chamber, not a hidden dungeon.

Furthermore, he must constantly interact with all 20 buttons, with no breaks.

'So that's why it's needs three people.'

He sighs in disbelief.

At this moment, he knew they f*ck up.
