"Ok." Leon nodded.

Although Leon was thankful for not having to put himself at risk, the last memory of him trying to trust the frontline wasn"t a pleasant one. In a world where monsters could fly and jump dozens of meters upward, the formation didn"t have much utility, but he accepted his function in any case. Before entering the dungeon, Tom made Leon push a cart where the skeleton"s dust would be stored. Since Leon didn"t have to use his hands, he could push that without a problem.

As soon as they entered the dungeon, they were welcomed by three skeleton knights. Their equipment didn"t look all that impressive; it didn"t have any magic effects. However, it seemed pretty st.u.r.dy. The skeletons had a one-handed sword on their right side and a buckler on their left side. Their helmets had a spike on the top, and they also had breastplates.

"How in the h.e.l.l did those monsters manage to create all that?"

The monsters charged, and their bodies blurred due to the speed, the fact that they were only bones increased their speed. However, charging forward without strategy wasn"t a good idea. Before the skeleton could touch him, Tom smashed it in a single strike. The man shot an energy beam and destroyed the second one. In three hits, the woman also destroyed the skeleton. Rather, it looked like the spear made the bones disintegrate… it was a quite nasty way of attacking.

"They are strong… Tom is unexpected the most powerful of them. The brute strength capable of smas.h.i.+ng bones and steel like that can"t be laughed at."

"Miller, Kelly, don"t spend your energy so soon," Tom warned. "We will fight until noon; if you two run out of energy again, we won"t retreat. Did you hear me?

Miller and Kelly looked away, and since that scene repeated itself many times, Leon ended up memorizing their names and faces. All in all, they seemed pretty average. Both of them had light-brow hair, and their eyes were of the same color… the only thing that stood in them was the perverted smiles that they showed each other. It looked they wanted to play together at night, but since both of them liked to dominate and not to be dominated, that never happened before.

"Oh, boy… to think those guys would think of that in the middle of a dungeon… they will die young."

It didn"t take long for Leon to find his targets. The skeletons wizard was wearing a robe and had a wand. As for the archer, it only had a green bow. It was evident that wizards could use magic, but he frowned when he saw a skeleton creating a thunder arrow. That wasn"t good, Leon transferred his mana to earth and formed two blocks of earth, before the monsters could attack, he smashed them into pieces. He exaggerated, Leon noticed that when he saw Tom, Miller, and Kelly looking at him with their eyes wide open.

"Ah… I used too much mana…" Leon tried to fake his nervousness, and it looked like he fooled those three.

"...You surprised me, for a second I thought you hold back against me before." Tom said. "But it looks like the more mana you put into your attacks, the stronger and faster they get."

"Yeah..." Leon forced a smile.

Leon had planned sooner or later to scare Miller and Kelly in order to make them not to mess with him again. He didn"t mind staying up while watching the dungeon for a little longer, but not when those guys were fooling around.

Anyway, Leon thought they would explore the whole dungeon in order to kill all the skeletons before they could grow stronger. Although they only transformed after a certain period of time, they became stronger by the day. However, they only explored the left side of the dungeon, and after three hours, they were back to the entrance.

"Phew... thanks to you, Leonard, things were very easy." Tom smiled. "To think that a single mage could decrease our time working by the half... anyway, my time watching the dungeon will increase, but that is not a problem. You guys can go and rest.

Leon and the others killed almost two hundred skeletons, it wasn"t that difficult, but Leon could imagine why Tom and the other two had to spend six hours hunting to finish one section of the dungeon. It was because they had to stop and rest several times due to the laziness of Miller and Kelly. Their skills and weapons consumed their mana and stamina, and since their strength was of an ordinary B rank soldier, they used skills to kill the monsters. They had the speed to block the monster"s attacks, but it was too painful for them... even though they could heal in a few minutes.

"Geez... they looked like spoiled kids."

The dungeon didn"t look that hard to clear, that much was obvious if only three people were capable of surviving inside of it six hours, but that was strange since Leon had no idea why that dungeon hadn"t been cleared yet. Something was off, so Leon made a mental note to investigate that later. First, he had to check if something happened while he was away to Gisela and also check his progress since she was already trying to learn Water Transformation.
