Chapter 33: When Chaotic Individuals Gather, Chaos Ensues (1)

(3rd Person POV)

At the other side of the forest, a group of three girls are gathered together, all of them still wearing their beginner's armor and clothing. Since they're all already level 10 and above, the three of them; Kaede, Rikka, and Satania, proceeded to explore the deeper parts of the forest.

Their in game names are; Maple, Snowflake, and Queen.

During their expedition, the three once again encountered the Giant Queen Bee that Maple killed earlier this morning. Since they didn't know if only one person needed to acquire the skill [Poison Resist(L)] or if all of them needed to acquire it, Queen and Snowflake tried out what Maple did.

Since they have a lot of Potions in their inventory, the two persevered and managed to gain [Poison Resist(M)]. Once they were done with that part, an angered Queen blasted the poor Giant Queen Bee, along with Rikka's throwing weapons.

"Phew! That goo was disgusting! To think that this Satanichia, a Great Archdemon, had to endure such tortuous experience to gain one skill! I'll burn every poisonous creature I meet from now on!"

"That was real painful. Good thing I turned off the pain receptors in my settings in time…"

While Queen and Snowflake are talking amongst themselves, they didn't notice Maple wander off on her own. They only noticed her disappearance when she sent them a message telling them that she found a dungeon.

Curious about this said dungeon, the two went even deeper inside the forest. As they pressed on, the trees they encountered were progressively more withered while the ground was cracked and dry. The landscape felt increasingly desolate.

The two of them even passed by a number of bubbling swamps. After ten more minutes, they came upon a rise in the land, like the ground had cracked open its jaws to swallow them whole.

There, they saw Maple standing in front of a dungeon's entrance while excitedly shouting something.

"A dungeon expedition! It's like I'm finally on a real adventure!"

"Oi, Maple. It's a good thing that you invited this Great Archdemon on such a thrilling adventure!"

"Huhu! My [Tyrant's Eye] will help me to squarely hit any targets we will face! I can see it, our success!"

Maple and the crew had spent all of their money on potions and mana potions, just in case. With Maple having to tank for them, the two rear guards are not in any immediate danger.

Since they all only had forty HP, the most basic potions were plenty enough to heal them all. Also, Rikka took the position of a support/healer so they're okay in that front.

After the three of them decided that they are all as ready as they'd ever be, they headed toward a dungeon they've read about on a forum—the Poison Dragon's Labyrinth

They didn't search for it intentionally but came across it accidentally but it all works out for them. Not like they'd care even if this is a dungeon with a level 100 dragon.

"We've got Poison Resist (M), so we should be fine!"

"Ha! That measly dragon or whatever better not stand in this Queen of Hell's way or I'll blast him with my scorching flames!"

"Don't worry Maple, we will surely clear this dungeon. I can see it!"

With that, they set off and immediately traveled to inside the cave that will lead them to their very first dungeon crawl. All of them are beaming with excitement, ready to receive whatever this dungeon may throw at them.

If this wasn't a game and they weren't carrying a their weapons and shields and staves, a casual observer might have assumed that they were on their way to a picnic.

As they ventured deeper inside the dungeon, some noxious-colored slimes and lizards came slithering along the ground and walls, threatening to swarm them.

"Hah! Take that!"

Maple stabbed a slime, but the core inside the gelatinous creature kept shifting around. Unable to land a clean hit, her attacks did no damage.

But no matter how much the slime tackled her, it couldn't deal any damage, either.

Right behind her, Satania, who have the username of Queen in this game, is having the time of her life blasting the poor lizards and insects to pieces.

"Fufufu… A-Hahahaha! Burn! Burn from the flames of Hell!"

"Queen-san, please manage your MP. At this rate, you'll have no more to spare when we arrive at the boss."

"I know! Just a few more and I will finally be satisfied!"

While Queen is having the time of her life, Maple is in a bit of a pinch.

"Hngg… this is getting me nowhere! How about this? "Shield Smash"!"

Maple raised her shield up and promptly fell directly on top of the slime, crushing it beneath her. This wasn't a real skill or anything, so there wasn't much power behind the move, and dropping to the ground right in front of her opponent left her badly exposed.

But however exposed she was, none of the monsters had any attacks or poisons that did Maple the slightest harm, so she wasn't worried. Also, her party members are there to provide her support.

The shield's impact didn't do much damage, but it was enough to crush the slime's core—exactly what she needed to kill them.

Slimes turned out to be the perfect prey for her.

It took the three of them a few minutes before they all managed to kill off all of the monsters around the vicinity. Queen and Snowflake took care of the lizards and insects while Maple took care of the slimes.

"Okay! Let's dive deeper!"

"Ha! I want to see which boss wants to square off against me!"

"I'll provide support if needed! My [Tyrant's Eye] is always there to see which of you needs help!"

Once they were all ready, the whole party kept going deeper. Given that it was a poison-themed dungeon, it was only natural for there to be all sorts of poisonous monsters… and traps.

Eventually, they finally reached a wide-open area. After squeezing through narrow passages, the three instantly felt liberated.

"Phew! That was really such a bad passageway. Isn't a dragon living here? Why is it so narrow?"

"Ask the idiot developers Queen-san. Who knows? It might be instead called the 'Poison Dragon's Prison' or something."

As the two are letting out a few of their complaints on the developers, Maple is busy poking the small purple flowers swaying side to side nearby.

"These are so cute… I wonder if they're an item? Can I take them with me?"

In response to her poking the purple flower, it suddenly balled up like a bud and released a purple mist. This seemed to cause a chain reaction as all the flowers did the same thing.

The mist was clearly poisonous.

"Whoa?!" Maple yelped. The whole room was becoming more purple by the minute. She got up and ran away towards Queen and Snowflake.

"What did you touch again, Maple!?" Snowflake shouted as she ran towards the next corridor.

"She just poked a suspicious looking flower!" Queen replied while also sprinting towards the next corridor to escape the poisonous mist.

"Hehee, sorry guys! Now that I think about it… I guess it makes sense that there would be traps."

"What do you mean 'it would make sense'!? It's clearly poisonous, you know!?"

It looks like Snowflake was really quite mad about the earlier incident still.

"Sorry sorry, it was my bad~."

Seeing Maple smile foolishly while apologizing, Snowflake could only sigh. She's not in any position to reprimand her, anyway.

Once they settled down, the whole party started walking again. However, what they encountered next was an open room containing a swamp that was clearly bad news. Some sort of gas was bubbling up from its murky depths.

"That's obviously poisonous. You can't fool me this time!"

With Maple's shout, the group decided to move past it. Just as they are passing by, something flew out of the swamp and scored a clean hit on the back of Maple's head who was leading the way!

"Augh! Wh-what was that?!"

"It's a flying fish that jumped out of the poisonous swamp!"

At Queen's prompting, Maple and Snowflake found what looked like a flying fish hopping around Maple's feet.

"I-is this…?"

They glanced back at the poisonous swamp. This time they clearly spotted a fish hopping out of it.

"That almost gave me a heart attack…," she groaned, carefully smashing the fish at her feet with her shield.

Queen didn't leave the fish alone as she blasted it with her fireball while Snowflake threw a shuriken at the other one that jumped out of the swamp.

Avoiding monsters and traps while having a good time with all the slimes, lizards, and insects that they encountered, the party finally reached the end of the dungeon. The double doors in front of them were three times their height.

To open the door, the had to push simultaneously as a team. The unoiled hinges let out a shrill screech as they parted to reveal the room beyond.

There were many patches of poison marsh dotting the ground, and the air itself was tinted purple.

"Should we enter?"

"Ha! Do you think I, Satanichia Kurumizawa McDowell, am scared of anything Maple!? Follow me!"

"Be careful, the door—"

As they stepped inside with Queen on the lead…

…the doors slammed shut behind them.

"Eep?!"

"—automatically closes when we enter it…"

The sound of Queen and Maple's yelp, and Snowflake's explanation was drowned out by the resounding roar of a dragon that is rising from the swamp.

This wasn't just your run-of-the-mill dragon. Its rotting, fetid flesh sloughed away, revealing the bones underneath.

The monster had three long necks. Several eyes were missing, leaving only gaping holes.

When the dragon roared, it belched purple mist. The undead dragon from the poison swamp was far more intimidating than any monsters they'd met on the way.

"Th-this is the poison dragon?!"

"Is this the Hydra that the [Group Chat] gave us a quest about? I can feel it, my [Tyrant's Eye] is telling me to slay it!"

"Hehehe… Fufufufu… FuHahaha! Finally, finally! I can now slay a dragon with my own two hands!"

As the three showed varying reactions, the dragon once again roared at them, indicating that it doesn't have any plan on giving them any warm welcome.

Chapter 34: When Chaotic Individuals Gather, Chaos Ensues (2)

(Third Person's POV)

While Maple is extremely alarmed because of this dragon's appearance, Snowflake and Queen is the exact opposite. In fact, they're beaming as they got ready to face this huge and disgusting looking dragon.

Whatever they were feeling didn't seem to matter much to this giant being though. It simply opened its three mouths and unleashed a torrent of toxic liquid at her.

To protect the two behind her, Maple raised her shield to block it. However, the poison-breath attack proved to be more powerful than she expected, enveloping her in an instant.

The two rearguards seems to have foreseen this happening as they backed away from Maple's position immediately. It was Snowflake who commanded Queen to change her positioning.

With Snowflake's experience, she knows some of the attacking patterns of this boss after researching the forums by herself when she's free. She's a big chuuni but she's also quite experienced in gaming.

With her guide and support, Queen didn't have much problem just casually chucking fireballs at the Hydra. Because of her skills, she could literally do this all day, do some serious damage, and still have a lot of mana to spare.

Her skill, [Nature's Beloved], allows her to have twice her INT while simultaneously having the same amount of stat points assigned to her MP. This was taken a step further when she received her skill, [Beloved Child of Mana] and [Destruction Mage].

[Beloved Child of Mana] increases her MP by 50 stat points and her INT by 1.5 times while [Destruction Mage] grants her piercing magic damage. 50% of her magic attacks are converted into piercing magic damage. In her current level, lvl 17, and with 115 stat points allocated in her INT, she have a whopping total of 345 stat points in both her MP and INT.

Her total MP, adding her initial allocated points should add up to atleast 4,162, a number that shouldn't be seen from a beginner such as her. In fact, half of the credit for their party's fast leveling speed goes to this glass cannon named Queen.

Even with the Hydra's supposedly high defense, she broke through it like it's a mere paper. Thus, it is pretty evident that, because of this very attacking power, the aggro of the Hydra changed into her extremely fast.

"Ah!? You dare to target this Great Archdemon, even though you're a mere rotten excuse of a dragon!? Take this and this! And this!"

"RoooARr!"

When the Hydra slightly backed away because of her overwhelming damage, Queen got cocky and taunted the Hydra even more.

"A-Hahaha! See? You're such a poor excuse of a dragon! You don't even have scales to protect your weak and rotting body. How absolutely disgusting…"

Meanwhile, while Queen is battling with the Hydra and surviving barely because of Snowflake's timely heals and poison dispels, Maple just opened her eyes from the attack she received.

When she opened her eyes she saw poison dripping on the ground around her. Maple herself remained unharmed but her gear wasn't so lucky.

"M-my shield and sword…"

"Maple-san! Please use [Provoke] and take the aggro away from Queen-san! At this rate, just one hit from that will take out most of our DPS!"

"U-Un! Got it!—"Provoke"! Hey, you! Yes, you Mr. Dragon! Come and attack me instead of my friend!"

Snowflake couldn't help but facepalm when she heard how her friend tried to 'provoke' the Hydra. Well, it worked but… is there really a need to shout at it when all you needed to do was use the skill?

"Since you will be our shield for the most part of this battle, let me grant you the divine blessing coming from my [Tyrant's Eye]!"

With a shout, Snowflake activated one of the support skills that she accidentally received from a random old woman NPC who thought that she really is the chosen one.

Due to her showing off her heterochromatic eyes that has the color of blue and gold, changed through the game's character editing section of course, Snowflake got a skill unique to herself called [Divine Saintess' Eyes].

Turns out that the old woman she was boasting her eyes to is the current saintess who's about to die of old age. The plan of the devs was to have this saintess give a quest to a new player, which is nearly impossible to complete, but it was all bypassed by Snowflake's almost divine imagination, managing to convince the saintess herself that she is indeed the next in line to succeed her.

The effect of this skill is to double the effect of her support skills like buffs and heals. This is why she is able to sustain both herself and Queen at the same time without any of them dying.

Even though Maple just lost her shield which had provided +28 to her VIT, and thanks to the effects of Absolute Defense and Giant Killing, that number had been quadrupled—meaning she'd just lost 112 points of defense, the Hydra's damage didn't even deal that much damage.

Thanks to Snowflake's buff, she was safe from this Hydra's attacks.

However, this safe haven created for Queen didn't and couldn't last for long. After Maple's [Provoke] wore off, the Hydra once again directed its attacks at Queen.

Seeing this, Maple, as the Great Shielder of the party, wanted to help.

""Cover Mo—""

However, before she could help, she was stopped by Snowflake.

"Don't do that Maple! If you do that, you'll loose too much VIT. I don't have enough mana right now to help us all sustain. The DoT damage of the poison mist is already hard enough to deal with!"

Since they needed Queen to deal damage while they need Snowflake to sustain, the party was stuck between a rock and a hard place. However, at the very last second, Snowflake stood right in front of Queen and took all of the damage.

"Make sure to deal all of your damage before you die, Queen-san. I only have 5% of MP. I couldn't help as much as you even if I wanted to…"

"Snowflake-san!"

"Leave it to me! This Queen of all Hell shall burn this Hydra to cinders!"

Hearing such reassuring words, Snowflake gave Queen two thumbs up while smiling brightly.

✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽✽

With the loss of one of their party members, Maple and Queen became even more serious. Since she's about to die anyway, Queen chugged the potions she have one by one while casting [Fireball] and [Fire Lance] when it's off cool down.

"Take this you puny excuse of a dragon! A-Hahaha! You will burn to cinders with the Great Archdemon's flames from Hell!"

Seeing Snowflake and Queen sacrifice themselves just for this dungeon run to succeed, Maple was absolutely touched. Her brain worked in overdrive as she tried to find a way to deal damage.

"Okay…focus! Meditate!"

Maple calmed herself, closed her eyes, and concentrated.

This time, she'd have to do it while enduring the pain of being attacked. Meditation's effect would only be active for however long she remained focused.

She had the ring and the Meditation skill, as well as the potions she'd purchased. Maple's goal was to use all of these in conjunction in an attempt to raise her Poison Resist. That was her only shot at winning.

Queen is already a lost cause in her opinion as she couldn't do anything to save her so she wanted to try everything she can to finish off what they started.

While using Meditation, the pain and fear lessened. The sensations faded away, like her physical form was growing intangible.

This helped her persevere. Each time her HP fell below 20 percent, she drank a potion.

Over and over and over and over again.

Her healing couldn't keep pace with the sheer amount of damage. She would either run out of potions or gain the resistance she needed. The outcome rested solely on which came first.

After she steeped in poison for quite some time, a voice echoed in her mind.

「Your [Poison Resist (M)] skill has evolved to [Poison Resist (L)]」

At the same time, Queen lost all of her HP after chucking in another batch of fireballs.

"This Great Archdemon shall meet you on the other side, Maple!"

With that as her farewell, Queen also turned into digital particles, leaving Maple inside the dungeon, all by her lonesome.

"I will! Just wait until I deliver the rewards!"

Thankfully for Maple, her gamble paid off. She managed to sustain while receiving damage, leaving her with enough HP to drink her final potion.

"Ha-ha… I did it!"

Now, with full health, Maple is looking to end this fight. However, with no weapon or shield, she doesn't have anything that can help her deal damage.

A few seconds later, the voice in her mind had announced that she'd acquired [Poison Nullification]. Now the breath attacks almost felt pleasant.

But she couldn't just kick back and relax. As her HP recovered, Maple had to think of a way to deal damage.

Since she didn't want to betray the trust that her friends gave her, Maple went through a long process of trial and error. After hours of trying things out, she finally hit upon an utterly outlandish idea.

"The dragon flesh is all ragged and torn up… and since I can nullify poison, I bet I could eat it!"

Since she's already near the Hydra, Maple only had to place her palms together in prayer.

"…Bon appétit, I guess."

She took a bite of the dragon's back.

"Urgh… that's not very tasty," Maple said, making a face.

She experimented for a few moments and quickly confirmed that any flesh she swallowed would not regenerate. But if she merely tore some off with her teeth, those bits would eventually reappear—like a video rewinding. And of course, that did no damage.

"I guess I have to eat it…"

The poison dragon's flesh was slightly bitter. It reminded Maple of the green peppers she'd always detested.

But if she had to eat it to get out of the room, then she wasn't going to stop, even if it meant holding her nose and biting back tears.

The one thing that became a saving grace for Maple was the fact that this game had no mechanic that made her feel full. Players could taste things, but no matter how much they ate, they'd never be stuffed.

And thus, a weird sight of a girl munching on the oh so powerful boss Hydra was born.

"Munch, munch… Oh, Mr. Dragon! Thanks for breathing on me! Chew, chew. That adds a nice bit of spice. Kinda helps hide the green pepperiness."

Of course, the girl didn't forget to throw a few compliments at the helpless dragon while munching on its flesh. Such an outlandish sight indeed.

Author's Remarks:

※ My longest chapter so far. Eh, I could probably cut it in half and post it as part 2 and 3 but I didn't want to make it too long winded. Also, most of the things that happened here took place in cannon so I don't want to bore the hell out of you guys by reiterating it.

※ If you've noticed, Maple's VIT is much higher than her previous counterpart by a hundred or so. I don't know why but it seems like the author forgot to assign the points or whatever to Maple or something? You get five stat points every level and 10 every time you hit a level with '0' so that's a total of 55 every ten levels. Maple's displayed stat in the novel lacks a whole lot of stat points.
