Will of chaos

After we manage to kill Basilisk with a few wounds I realize that I spent almost all my mana and it looks like it was the same for the others.

As soon as I see everyone is fine I go to Basilisk and bite one of his wounds and start drinking his blood until I can't get any more, so I'm going to take a look at the notifications.

Ding!  Ding!  Ding!

<[ You gained 2000 EXP from enemy kill ]>

I'll leave it to integrate my levels and change jobs when I get back, it seems the amount of blood I drank was enough to get a pure bloodline and several abilities, I was also happy with the title.

I look happy for this big dungeon boss who earned me a lot of EXP, but I'm left with doubt now.

"(What are we going to do with a body that big?)" (I)

"Layla, can you guard this Basilisk's body with your space magic?"  (I)

"Are you crazy, master?"  (Layla)

"I wouldn't be able to save even half of this gigantic thing."  (Layla)

"The storage items we have aren't going to be useful with something this size either."  (I)

"Why do you want to take the entire body, master?"  (Ibuki)

"All we have to do is get the materials we want and then leave."  (Ibuki)

"That's the problem, even if we all work together we won't be able to get a lot of materials in time, the Basilisk's body is too big and resistant, it will take hours to get everything."  (I)

"We won't have that much time, the Dungeon will devour Basilisk's body before we can finish getting everything we want."  (I)

"So the best thing to do would be to take the whole body, but we don't have anything that supports something that size."  (I)

While everyone was trying to think of a solution to this problem, Diana takes an old-looking bag and goes over to the Basilisk, as she opens the bag and touches the Basilisk with her hand I see the startling sight of that giant body being sucked into that little one handbag.

"As everyone can see, I had already thought about this problem when I heard about the approximate size of the Basilisk, so I asked Mari and Carlos for a storage item big enough to hold this large body."  (Diana)

"Very well thought out, Diana."  (Érica)

"Nice job Diana."  (I)

With that problem solved everyone took a few minutes to get a quick rest, then we started looking for the Dungeon Treasure Room.

Diana already had information that the treasure room is after the golden gate that is in the coliseum, so we started looking for this gate, when we found this five-meter high golden gate we entered and followed a corridor that leads to the stairs that go up into the highest point of the coliseum where a broken marble throne stands.

Behind the throne was a door a little over six feet high that appears to be made of gold and is intact, this door is halfway open.

When we enter through this door we come across a large round room with statues of several snakes and strong-looking snakes, in the middle of the room is a large golden chest similar to the chests we found while exploring the Dungeon.

My eyes weren't drawn to this chest like the others, what caught my attention was the large green crystal sphere that was floating on top of an altar with snake and serpent ornaments.

"(That must be the core.)" (I)

I was tempted to go to the core, but I didn't, this dungeon is important to this city, so the core has to remain intact and in its place, in about ten or fifteen hours a new boss monster will appear in the coliseum.

Then I see the others going to the treasure chest and I follow, I must admit I'm curious about what must be in there.

"Kira, can you check if there's any kind of trap in this chest?"  (I)

"You don't need to worry, master."  (Ivan)

"The chests in the treasure room don't have traps, only the chests scattered around the floors have a 50% chance of having traps."  (Ivan)

"My dad and mom told me the same thing, but this is the first time I've managed to conquer a dungeon and get to this room."  (Diana)

"Then let's get everything in there."  (I)

I go to the chest and open it, inside I found global coins, jewelry, some metals, a crystal card, and a whip that resembles the appearance of Basilisk.

I grab everything and put it in the storage item, so the golden chest lid closes by itself and I can't open it anymore.

"I hear these golden chests are part of the Dungeon, so they can't be destroyed or moved."  (Freya)

"So we just need to go back now?"  (I)

"Yes, we can't destroy the dungeon core, we've also killed the dungeon boss and got our reward."  (Sophia)

"All we need to do now is head back to the secure room and head back to the entrance so we can leave."  (Sophia)

"Preferably avoiding monsters along the way, the curse I put on that Basilisk took all my mana, I almost fainted."  (Érica)

"The fight against Basilisk was quick, but we used almost all our energy in combat, we're not in the best condition to fight the Grade A monsters on this floor."  (Irina)

"I think we'd better go back too, I'll use my detection skill to dodge monsters as I did before, now let's go."  (I)

----------

As we drove back to Valen City we talked about the battle, some people weren't very helpful in the battle because they didn't have strong enough attacks to hurt Basilisk or techniques that could help others restrain or hurt Basilisk.

The most helpful people for sure were Ivan, Kira, and Freya who did the most damage to Basilisk, even my final attack was just to let Ivan finish the monster.

We keep saying this so we can show each other what we can improve.

When we arrived in the city we go straight home, on the way Freya advised that the best person to dismantle the Basilisk corpse would be her and Caryna, her justification being their high levels in technical skills with knives, dismantling, and cooking.

It seems that all corpses are considered ingredients so this skill increases efficiency and quality while separating monster parts.

Everyone agreed on the matter since we trusted Freya and Caryna, but I asked how long they would take with this and Freya said that for a monster of this size it will take ten hours of work, not only that but they would need special knives for that as is a powerful Grade S monster.

I asked if I needed to go buy these knives on the way, but Freya said that Anton has some that he made with the Grade A monster materials we killed in the Dungeon.

As soon as we arrived I told everyone to rest first, so we had something to eat and cleaned up.

After that I left the giant monster corpse outside and left the mother and daughter pair working, I must say it scared me to see someone as lovely and gentle as Caryna humming as she cut with extreme speed, precision, and dexterity that giant body.

I was also reminded of the magic booster skill I gave Caryna when I saw her lift chunks of Basilisk meat that was easily triple her size.

After they separated everything, we started distributing the materials, Tânia took the skin and half the scales, Anton took the bones, teeth, and the rest of the scales, while Lyra took some organs, the two injured eyes and the tongue saying that they will be useful to do your alchemy studies along with some experiments.

Nira said that we could keep the Basilisk core for now as we didn't need the money for now and that it could be useful to Anton, Tânia, or Lyra in the future, so I kept the core too.

Freya and Caryna also took more than half of Basilisk's meat, I was surprised that the amount leftover from Basilisk's body was less than half after everyone took what they wanted, but luckily there was enough to fulfill the quests we took in the Guild of Adventurers.

It was already dusk when I went to the Guild to finish the quests, but at the time the quests were completed the receptionist made me go to Carlos's office on the top floor.

As soon as I walk in I see Carlos sitting on a couch drinking a bottle of beer and his desk is empty with no paper today.

"Looks like you won the Basilisk with great ease."  (Carlos)
