I Became the Demon King of Lust

Chapter 83: Rocky start (1)



After entering the dungeon, they didn't act up right away since there were still people watching.

However, as soon as we went a bit deeper, these kids immediately started to act up just like spoiled brats.

They didn't work together at all and just fought monsters whenever they wanted.

There wasn't a single trace of coordination between them as they just did whatever they wanted.

I didn't say a thing as I just observed all of this.

I had to admit that these kids were worthy of being considered the special geniuses that Elementia had picked up. They all had powerful abilities and when brought together, they really did make for a perfect team.

Claire used both a bow and moved between the monsters with daggers in hand.

From time to time, she would suddenly start moving faster, making it clear that she had some kind of agility power.

Blaze as his name suggested used a fire based power, but he wasn't a mage as one would think. Instead of shooting out fire magic at his enemies, he wrapped the flames around himself and created an armour made of flames.

It seemed that his powers made him some kind of tank.

The flame armour blocked every monster that came at him, while also allowing him to damage them with the flames.

Hayato's power was more predictable since he used wind magic as one would expect from his appearance.

He created blades of wind that he used to cut down the monsters that came at him, not even breaking a sweat as he released all of this magic.

Finally, Qin Yue Ru took the position of a healer with her light magic.

It was just too bad that she didn't use her light magic to buff or heal anyone, she just used it to create arrows that she shot at the monsters.

These kids vented all of their frustration at being put in a team like this, especially with a F Ranker on the monsters.

With how fast they killed them, there weren't enough monsters to keep up with their killing spree.

So in the end, they were able to clear out the entire area of all monsters.

There wasn't a single one left.

The handlers that came with them just calmly put the loot that dropped on the ground into their bags.

I had to note how professional these handlers were, only picking up the loot from the monster that the Awakener that they were in charge of killed. They didn't fight each other and just calmly did their jobs.

Only Su Chen and I stood there watching over them.

I could see that Su Chen had the same look as me on his face.

It was clear that he was as disappointed as me with these kids.

Since they had finished clearing out the monsters, the kids came back and said to me, "We're heading deeper into the dungeon, what will you do now?"

I just calmly said, "Then let's go."

When they heard this, the kids couldn't help revealing an annoyed look.

After all, they had seen that he had stood on the side the entire time. He hadn't done a single thing when they had done all of the work and now he was saying this like he was the leader?

Blaze was the one that lost his temper first as he said, "Hey, F Ranker, don't you think that you're being a bit too cocky? While we fought, you just stood on the side and watched. Do you really think that you're a part of our party?"

The way that he said it, it was clear that he thought that I was only here because of nepotism.

I had been put on their team even though I was a F Ranker so that I could say that I had cleared a D Rank Dungeon before.

But I just calmly said, "I was assigned to this party for a reason, so you should just accept it and move on."

Blaze looked like he wanted to explode, but Qin Yue Ru stopped him by saying, "This mister, are you sure that you want to keep going with us? There are powerful monsters ahead that we might even struggle with. Are you sure you don't want to go back?"

Though her words were a bit arrogant, there was still a trace of concern in them.

After all, one wouldn't think that a F Ranker would be able to keep up with them. She was trying to get me to go back so that I would be able to keep myself safe.

But I just said with a confident smile, "I'll be fine."

"Tch." She clicked her tongue and turned around without another word.

Blaze also gave a snort before turning around and saying, "Do whatever you want."

With that, the other two followed them deeper into the dungeon along with their porters.

Su Chen and I followed behind them, but while we were walking, Su Chen whispered, "They're hopeless, aren't they?"

I just revealed a faint smile and said, "Well, they're young and they gained a lot of power all at once. It isn't strange that they would act this way, right?"

Su Chen shook his head and said, "That's not what I meant."

I just gave a sigh and said, "This is their first time in a dungeon, isn't it?"

Su Chen slowly gave a nod in response to this.

Seeing this, I gave another sigh before saying, "I knew it, you did know about this and you chose not to tell me."

Su Chen revealed an awkward smile before saying, "The guild master told me not to tell you. She said that it would be more fun for you to find out this way."

I said with a bitter smile, "More like she was just teasing me. Or rather she knew that I would reject it if I did know this."

Su Chen didn't say anything in response.

That woman…it really was hard to understand what she was thinking.

But at least, this showed the trust that she had in me since she assigned me this task.

If I could do this task properly, would that raise my position in her mind?

If I could get closer to her and have a chance to be alone with her, then it would be worth it.

So I just sucked it up and kept going.
