=====================================================================

-West-part of the Velantas Deadlands, 40 km away from the Water-Knot of Glavras

"My lord, did you hear that?" - Bihamut

"Of course I did. Everyone did that. And don't call me lord when you are one as well. It will lower your dignity." - Virt

"My apologies, em, Virt. But, how do you feel about it?" - Bihamut

"Nothing at all. There was no way master would lose to that heartless bastard. Or did you think we would have any lingerings to the one who did all this to the outside land?" - Virt

"No, of course not." - Bihamut

"Well then, how's the naming going?" - Virt

"It was just finished. All the new members that defected from the Rexus have gotten their names. There are no side-effects from leaving the Dungeon either." - Bihamut

"That's good news. I wouldn't sleep well if something happened to them after finally getting out." - Virt

"Yes. On a different note, the Sliprauses that can evolve asks for your permission. Some individuals haven't fulfilled any requirements for evolving, despite being at LV20." - Bihamut

"Our highest priority is to leave these dead lands. But make their evolution the second highest one. And about the guys who can evolve already, tell then to wait till we reach some land that isn't dried up. And make them tell us if their evolutions will pose a threat to humans, or other humanoids. We will help those who only have the requirements for those evolutions, in fulfilling safer evolution requirements." - Virt

"As you wish. But, why humans?" - Bihamut

"Simple. Humans are clever beings. No need to needlessly make enemies out of them." - Virt

"And because Master was fond of them?" - Bihamut

"Of course! But, if the humanoids attack first, we will strike back at them. You should train your abilities in diplomacy in case of such a time." - Virt

"Acknowledged." - Bihamut

"And, how far is it now, to you sahuagins' homeland?" - Virt

-The capital of Velantas, Adventure Guild main office

"Grandmaster! Did you hear that?!" - Secretary-looking person

"Nell, a World Announcement is told to every living being in the world. It would be stranger if I didn't hear it." - Grandmaster

"In that case-!" - Nell

"Grandmaster! Is the Grandmaster here!?" - Brak

"Brak? And his party?" - Grandmaster

"We got the 'his party' treatment?!" - Goran, Lester, & Miliana

"That's not important right now!" - Brak

"It is!" - Goran, Lester, & Miliana

"Well, fine! But anyway, Grandmaster, we remembered that Dungeon!" - Brak

"Ah, yes. The one where we got the most solid proof that Adventurers needs more than just the amount of completed requests? Where we found out that Adventurers needs the strength to back up their Adventurer ranks? The one that forced the Adventure Guild to rework their ranking system? The one who made you fall from being a D-rank party to an F-rank?" - Grandmaster

"Ugh, that one..." - Brak, Goran, Lester, & Miliana

"In that case, I'll order a Raid Quest. You four will join the Raid as guides for the D-ranks or higher. Do this well, and I'll promote you back to E-ranks." - Grandmaster

"OH YEEEESS!" - Brak, Goran, Lester, & Miliana

"I-is that alright, Grandmaster?" - Nell

"They have the battle prowess to get back to E-rank, as well as having enough Quests done already. The only reason they've not been promoted yet was that I didn't feel like it." - Grandmaster

"Hey-!" - Brak, Goran, Lester, & Miliana

"Or do the four idiots that almost made an army of undeads invade the city when they returned from their failed Dungeon expedition has something to say?" - Grandmaster

"N-nothing at all..." - Brak, Goran, Lester, & Miliana

"Good, then off you go. Tomorrow will be used to gather Raid-members, so use that time to gather the items needed for the trip. That's an order." - Grandmaster

"Y-YES SIR!" - Brak, Goran, Lester, & Miliana

-Unkown location, somewhere in the Velantas region.

"My Lord." - Cult Member

"Yes?" - Old Cult Leader

"What shall we do about the defeat of the Disaster?" - Cult Member

"There's nothing we can do about it. Not that I think this region's problems will be solved that easily." - Old Cult Leader

"Of course." - Cult Member

"But the corpse of a Disaster. I would love to get my hands on that. It would be a perfect material for the creation of our God." - Old Cult Leader

"! As expected of you, my Lord. Only you could think of such an idea." - Cult Member

"No need for flattering. Go back to your work. Collect more bodies for the plan." - Old Cult Leader

"As you wish, my Lord." - Cult Member.

Well then, this marks the end of Arc 1, "The Demon of the Dungeon".

I hope you will like the next Arc, "The Nightmare in the No-Life Forest".
