Raised in Dungeon

Minotaurs are monsters that have human bodies and bullheads. Minotaurs are well-known for their powerful physiques, particularly their heads, which can crush human bodies simply by pushing them.

They were commonly found on the 4th and 5th floors, and the minotaur they saw this time was probably not what Felicia had read about in the book. With its enormous body and half of it being a horse, what kind of creature could it ram with its head? At least not a human. And if it wasn't human, then he evolved according to his circumstances on that floor.

The room was not a good place for Allen to fight. He lacked the foothold to jump onto its head because the area was so vast. Moreover, the minotaur could not keep up with Allen's speed, so he had to move as soon as he stepped on something.

The minotaur was always trying to catch Allen, who was jumping back and forth. Allen, who fused with Reig, could see the minotaur's movements more clearly, he sometimes jumped onto the minotaur's horse's back thinking it was his blind spot, but the minotaur turned out to be able to use his tail to whip his body.

"Akh!"

Not expecting the whipping of the tail, Allen was thrown to the wall on the left.

The minotaur immediately used its fingers to attack Allen. Still, when the centaur's fingers and hooves were about to pierce Allen's body, Allen immediately climbed on top of its fingers and walked through the centaur's hands towards its head.

As he walked over to the centaur's hand, he scraped his sword against it, but not deeply enough. It was just a scratch for the minotaur. The minotaur's other hand was about to swat at him like a mosquito, but Allen could jump onto that hand quickly, and using that hand as a foothold, Allen pushed his legs so hard that he could jump like a cannon into the minotaur's face.

"UGHAAAA!"

"I will take your left eye first."

As soon as Allen stabbed the minotaur's eye, its shrill scream reverberated painfully through Allen's ears, and in response, it punched its own face with an animalistic fury. Allen quickly jumped away but he stumbled. Suddenly, the minotaur lashed out at Allen's body as he plummeted downward, its powerful other hand keeping aim unswervingly as it swung with deadly accuracy. Allen, realizing his desperate situation, managed to protect himself from the minotaur's forceful attack with both his hands.

"AAAKH!"

"ALLEN!" yelled Felicia.

Allen's body was thrown to smash a bit of the dungeon's rockery floor. The Minotaurus, holding its painful eyes, now used its foot to step on Allen's fallen body.

Allen immediately rolled to the left and shouted,

"DON'T THINK ABOUT ME! FOCUS ON YOUR BLESSING!"

'Allen... please... be safe,'

Felicia's face was slowly turning pale, her breathing was labored, and her hands were numb, but she continued to make her garden for light,

"If only my blood could come back if I were inside my garden, then I could use my god's blessing indefinitely."

Of course, she can't. Felicia had tried that before. If Felicia could revert time in her garden, she was curious to find out if the same power applied to herself. She wondered if she used it on herself, would her blood and mana also come back to her? After taking a chance, it turned out that the exhaustion of her mana was not affected. Probably, her actual blessing is not reverting the time, or mana was not bound by the time.

"Mr Waldo, please give me strength..." Felicia muttered.

Back to Allen. He began to think about targeting its eyes and legs first. Even though he didn't have time, he had no other plans.

But when he did, its feet could nimbly move around to avoid Allen's attacks.

"What should I do?! Should I just attack its eyes? That way, we can at least run away from here. But after I use Reig's rampage, I will fall asleep for a few hours, and during that time, what about that girl? Can she survive in this dungeon alone?!"

Allen concluded that the longer he forced himself to use Reig's rampage, the longer the cooldown would be. Previously, when he used it to attack the spider and enter the cave, he fell asleep for about an hour. Then again, when he forced himself to escape from Isabelle's territory, he slept for three days. There was no way he could leave Felicia in here for three days. What about food and water?

"I can't run away! I have to kill this monster! If I do, there will be a way! I'll definitely live! I won't let that girl die either!

"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

Allen once again jumped quickly towards the minotaur. He had to kill it; to do so, he had to take out its right eye. If it couldn't see, then attacking it would be much easier.

This time, Allen jumped onto its back and ran in a zigzag manner to avoid its tail lashing. Allen charged up to its back neck and

-THRUST

He stabbed the minotaur in the back.

"REIG!"

As he stabbed its back, Reig, a small sword, turned bigger.

-SPLOSH

"UGHAAA!!!" The monster cried out in pain.

Because the sword was stuck in its back, Allen was whipped by its tail again to the left.

Reig's sword, which had become fused in Allen's hand, grew in size.

The angrier he got, the stronger Reig became. Reig could feed on Allen's angry emotions and turn them into his own mana.

That way, his sword was almost as big as when he fought Leofric.

The minotaur immediately attacked Allen, who landed on the ground. As the minotaur's hand reached down to try and grab him, Allen used its arm as leverage, climbing on top of its hand and scraping his sword against it. This time, however, the sword stroke would be different. Deadly. Allen made an incision so deep that the monster screamed out in pain, thrashing its arms wildly to shake Allen off. Unfortunately for the minotaur, Allen had clung too tight and stayed in the fight.

Allen immediately jumped up. The minotaur, who didn't see Allen, tried to check his surroundings; it turned out that Allen was on his horn, the only place he couldn't feel. Allen used that opportunity to stab the minotaur in the head.

"GHAAAAAA!"

He stabbed it hard.

The minotaur shook its head vigorously, but Allen maintained his position while pushing his hand as hard as he could to stab its head.

"HYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"

"GHAAAAGHAAAA!!!"

The minotaur tried repeatedly hitting its head to make Allen fall, but it was useless. Allen was right near his horn, so when the minotaur hit his head, his hand was injured by his own horn. The minotaur was also too frantic to pick up Allen with his fingers.

Then because it was desperate with the pain...

The minotaur's eyes went to the other person in front of it; the minotaur slightly walked forward, and...

-BWAK

"Huh?"

The minotaur seemed to kick something. Allen raised his head and looked at what he kicked.

It was Felicia.

Felicia was kicked into the rock behind her, her body stuck to the rock, looking crushed, and her blood splashed everywhere.

Seeing that, Allen subconsciously weakened his stab at the minotaur's head. The minotaur, somewhat calmer now, picked up Allen and threw him against the wall.

'What?

'What happened?

'Why did he attack that girl?'

Allen got up, looking at Felicia's body, which was drooping, motionless, and helpless.

"OI!" called Allen to Felicia.

She didn't answer

"OI! GET UP!" called Allen again.

She still didn't answer

"OI! HURRY UP AND GET UP! THE LIGHT IS FADING!"

She still didn't answer

"OI! I SAID GET UP!"

The light illuminating the room suddenly disappeared, so everything in the room slowly went dark.

"Why that didn't come up in my mind..."

"Why didn't I think at all that this minotaur could have attacked her while fighting with me..."

Reig slowly turned back into an ordinary scarf... Allen's body began to weaken. He then walked slowly, with a limp, towards Felicia. At the same time, trying to reach his hand to Felicia's body lying on the rocks.

"Is she going to die?"

"Is that girl going to die too?"

"Just like mother..."

"Just like Isabelle..."

As Allen walked over to Felicia's body...

-BAM

The minotaur, whose head had been stained with his own blood, punched Allen into the wall.

He didn't just hit him against the wall once, but several times.

Until finally... Allen did not move, but his body was not destroyed. His bones were crushed, and his blood flooded his head.

Allen looked at the minotaur, who kept hitting him repeatedly.

__It hurts...

It hurts so much...

Why do I have to take all these hits...

Why do I have to be here...

I feel so tired...

I just want to sleep...

Maybe everything is a dream...

And when I wake up, everything will be back to normal___

Allen looked at Felicia's lying body, and then suddenly, he remembered all of Felicia's words in his head.

"Allen, I will show you the world without hurting anyone."

"You are finally awake, Allen. I thought you were dead. Well, actually, I don't care whether you live or die, but I'm glad you're awake. Be thankful! It's all because I saved you."

"Thank you, Allen. You took the trouble to save me inside here."

"Because I want to be your friend, Allen."

Over and over, Felicia's face flashed through his head.

"Is that girl really dead?"

Then when he saw the minotaur in front of him, the monster that had killed Felicia. Allen's blood boiled again.

Allen stood back up... then he showed the minotaur a very tense aura, so the minotaur became scared and stopped hitting Allen.

"Calm down… it's not your fault..."

"This time, it's all my fault... I'm the one who failed to protect her...."

"But you must be prepared... I will take out all this anger and hatred on you."
