Chapter 30: A Sealed Girl!

In a place, where no light should exist except the light produce by special ores inserted in the walls. But right now, it was brightly illuminated with light. It was not the light produced by special ores on the walls but a light produce by crimson colored flames that were burning all that came in contact with it. The place was filled with nothing but corpses of different monsters, strong enough that anyone of them could be called a behemoth if left free in the outside world.

In the center of all these corpses, stood a beautiful woman. She looked like a goddess of fire, wrapped in fire herself or the fire was coming from her. She took a deep breath as white smoke was released from her mouth indicating her body temperature was either too low or too high.

"You are getting better at controlling flames, Yue'er" Wang Lei, who was standing away from Qingyue, concealing his presence as not to let the monster see him, said.

"Not as good as you, brother" Qingyue said, humbly.

"It doesn't matter. You will get to that point sooner or later.' Wang Lei said. They have been exploring deeper into this dungeon for a week now. This week, Wang Lei has hardly killed any monster. He let Qingyue kill all the monsters but not with ice but to let her practice other elements. He didn't want to hurry and enjoy the whole process but the bigger reason was that the more time she used to fire the more familiar she would become with it. She was at level 3 in her fire control and if his guess was right then 10 should be the max level.

"Should we collect the bodies?" Qingyue asked. She has been curious as to why her brother has been collecting the bodies of these monsters.

"Yeah, I will collect them," Wang Lei said as a golden ripple appeared below everybody, absorbing them.

"Let's go. I think we are almost on the hundredth floor!" Wang Lei said and started to walk with Qingyue.

With the same process, Qingyue taking care of the monsters, they continued their journey. After walking, for an hour, they reached a great door that had two humongous stone statues at its both sides as if guarding something inside. Wang Lei looked at the statues, curiously. 'Hm, isn't the place where FL of this world is sealed?'

"It feels like there is someone inside!" Qingyue said, surprised.

"To be more precise, someone is sealed in there," Wang Lei said.

Qingyue was surprised. "Why would they seal someone here?"

"Who knows? Maybe to protect"

"Protect…" Qingyue made a thinking face.

"Let's go and see it for ourselves," Wang Lei said and walked towards the door. As he reached close to the door, the statue's eyes shone in red, and looked towards Wang Lei, who completely ignored them.

"I should-". "Wait!" Qingyue was about to kill them when she was stopped by Wang Lei.

He looked at the status and used <Analyze> on them and saw that they had about 3000 Mana each. 'Let's try it on these guys'. Wang Lei saw as the statue at the left took a great sword of about 10 meters and swing it towards him.

Seeing it coming towards him, Wang Lei gathered his energy and said, <Die>. As he said that, the statue that was swinging the sword, abruptly stooped. Cracks started to appear all over its body and before long it shattered in tiny pieces, dying. Wang Lei seeing it die glances at his Energy reserve and found out that about 1500 of his energy was used. 'About half the amount of the target, huh' He looked at the other statue and did the same as he again checks and found out that 1500 of his Energy again spent. With this, he could deduce that he needed about half the amount of the object he wanted dead to use it.

"Come let's go in," Wang Lei said by turning the gate into dust. He looked inside and saw a large hall with pillars supporting the roof which was quite an unusual sight to see in the labyrinth.

"Is… is someone there?" He looked at the direction where the sound came from. There he could see a girl that looked to be in her 15, merged(?) or sunk in the wall. He could only see her face and nothing more.

"S… someone there? Please, please save me!" He looked at the girl that was pleading to be freed. He started to walk towards her while Qingyue was silently standing behind him, watching him attentively.

Wang Lei walked and stood in front of the girl, who looked towards him. "Please, save me…"

"Ok!" Wang Lei said, nodding. Hearing it, the girl's eyes went wide. "Are you not going to ask who I am… and why I was sealed here?"

"It doesn't matter." Shaking his head Wang Lei and place his hands on the wall in which her body was sealed, <Melt>. With his words, the wall started to melt. By the time, the girl could process what was going on, her body detached from the wall and started to fall towards the ground but Wang Lei hugged her.

The girl silently looked towards him as tears started to gather around her eyes and she started to cry out loud. Wang Lei didn't say anything and just hugged her tighter while patting her head. After some time, the girl calmed down and sit on the floor. She looked towards Wang Lei and said, "Thank you… thank you"

Wang Lei just smiled and pats her head, "It's ok"

The girl looks towards him with her vacant eyes, "What's your name?"

"Jian Wang Lei. You can call me Wang Lei and she is my-". "Wife! I am Qingyue, hubby's wife!" Before Wang Lei could finish, he was cut short by Qingyue. He shakes his head with an amused smile. "What is yours?"

The girl shook her head, "I don't have a name" She looked towards him and said, "I want you to give me one"

"Me?" Wang Lei said pointing towards him. Qingyue was already standing behind him looking towards the naked girl.

The girl nodded, vigorously. "Well… how about Yue. It represents Goddess of Moon from where I came from" Wang Lei said.

"Yue… Yue… hm! My name is Yue" Wang Lei looked at the girl- Yue who smiled happily like she was given a reason to live. He knew her past. First, he hadn't had any intention to specifically go and save her but let Hajime do that since he didn't want his first Vice-Guild master to be an emotionless murderer. But fate brought them towards this room since this room, normally one should not reach here but pass it and reach the next level. But he still ended up reaching here. Since he was already here then why not just save her.

Looking at, Yue, who even with her stoic expression was still smiling, Wang Lei snapped his fingers and some cloths appear in his hands. Passing it to Yue, he says "You should wear something"

Yue, who heard him looked at her naked body and blushed. Speedily taking cloths from his hands she wears them. Looking towards him she says "Wang Lei… pervert…"

Wang Lei smiled, "Then…" Moving closer to her, as their lips were only about 1cm apart he says "Want me to show what this pervert can do?" whispering he blows air at her ear.

Yue was blushing hard and didn't know how to answer until Qingyue pulls Wang Lei away, smiling she said "Stop it, hubby. You're scaring her"

Wang Lei stared at Qingyue and kept staring at her, "You acting quite unusually, Yue'er. Is there some matter that is bugging you? Or are you just jealous?" He said the last part smirking.

"Humph! Who is jealous? Why would I be jealous of a child?" Pouting and pointing her finger towards Yue she says.

Yue, who heard him said with her stoic expression, "I am not a child! I am 23 years old!"

"323 to be exact!" Wang Lei said at which Qingyue was surprised and Yue was the same.

"How did you know!? I never told you!" Yue said, surprised. Though one could not tell that with her blank expression.

"You're a Vampire, right? And Vampire extinct 300 years ago while you're still alive. It only makes sense that you're more than 300 years old." Wang Lei said but he knew her exact age because he was looking at her status.

Her status was a mix, well, he thought that it was probably because the people of this world don't cultivate like from ATG. Instead, all they had to do was to kill a living being and they will get a part of the energy that will automatically increase their status. But because of that, it was not all round. While people from ATG are cultivated by absorbing Profound Energy directly in their bodies that increase their every accepts, thus having a balance status where everything is according to their realm.

'If it's only a fight between arts then she can fight 2nd of Earth Profound which is quite a power with this worlds standards'

Yue, who heard that vampires have been extinct, slumped her shoulder. "So, everyone is dead…". She felt someone's hand on her head. She looked up and saw, Wang Lei smiling gently.

Qingyue also came forward and hugged her. Yue again started to cry in Qingyue's embrace who was gently stroking her back.

Wang Lei looked back towards the ceiling. He has sensed a beast there since the first time he has come in. He watched as a giant scorpion falls from the ceiling, blocking the way out. Qingyue and Yue's attention also diverted towards it. Yue, who saw the giant scorpion clenched her teeth. 'I don't have enough mana to fight'. She looked towards them and thought, maybe they will leave her as bait.

Wang Lei looked at the scorpion who had the strength of a 1st of Earth Profound and was surprised. 'Her uncle went all way in sealing her, huh. Or is it just living here?'

'Yue (A.I), can I convert this scorpion in currency?' He has been thinking about it for some time now. But no matter what beast he killed before he couldn't gain any currency. He thought it was probably because they were way too weak.

'You can master! The beast in this world, if they are not at Earth Profound or above, will not give you any currency. But if you change its energy into currency then you will not get any level up!' Yue said.

Wang Lei was thinking while Qingyue was silently waiting for him but Yue thought that they were scared. Who would not? It was a ferocious beast for humans as it was hard for them to fight it since they could not use mana directly. She walked up and stood before Wang Lei who was looking at her entertainingly. "You both run! I will stop this beast here!" Yue said with conviction.

Wang Lei held her from her underarms and picked her up, "Wahh~" breaking her stoic expression into a funny one. "Just sit still, little Yue. Let big sister Yue'er take care of it" Yue pouted, "I am not little!"

Qingyue who heard him smile. She thought having a little sister was not bad and Yue was cute to boast. She walked in front as Wang Lei retreats towards the wall with Yue in his hands who was pouting as not to get in Qingyue's way.

He saw as Qingyue started her fight with the beast using Fire. He felt something on his neck, "What are you doing?"

"Let me drink your blood! Don't worry as I will not drink much!" Yue said. Watching Qingyue fighting she could tell that she was not adapt to using fire magic and also surprised as she could use mana directly. She thought of helping her.

"My blood? Well, drink as much you want. Don't worry about me as I have an infinite supply of it!" Wang Lei said. With his immortality factor, his body constantly produces new blood. Not only that, but his blood also has the effect of 'Drink of Youth' having an enormous amount of life energy in it. He could be called walking 'Fountain of Youth' at this point.

Yue was suspicious but didn't shy away and took a bite on his neck. Her eyes went wide, 'Delicious! What is with this blood! Every drop is filled with an enormous amount of life energy! I can't stop!'

While Yue was enjoying the most delicious blood, Qingyue was fighting with the scorpion. She has developed her control on Fire at the master level. Wang Lei has divided every elemental control into three levels: Master, Quasi-Grandmaster, and Grandmaster. Each level consists of three levels except the last one having four levels. She is trying to create her art with fire magic, though Wang Lei has helped her a lot.

Dogging the tail of the scorpion by jumping backward she raises her finger towards the sky and uses the art that her brother taught her.

A large ball of fire was created above the head of the scorpion. Since it was quite a large hall, it was enough to accommodate the fireball of 20 meters. It was the current limit she could create it but that doesn't mean it was weak as it possesses 5000 degrees of temperature. She swings her finger downwards as the fireball that looked like a sun, started to fall towards the scorpion.

Scorpion used a skill <Diamond Skin> that hardens its skin. The sun falls but no sound is produced as it silently burns everything. After some time, smoke fades with the scorpion at the brink of death lays there twitching. Qingyue emotionlessly points her finger towards it, creating a sword of fire vertically downward that pierce its skin like butter, taking its life.

With the death of the scorpion, Qingyue felt her strength increasing then suddenly jumped a higher realm. Taking a deep breath, she checks her strength that has reached half-step in the sky. She was astonished as to how fast her cultivation has become. First, this world was filled with Primordial Energy that no one cultivated. Second, killing a monster and taking its energy increased it further. The number of monsters she has killed at this point was uncountable!

She looked back towards Wang Lei, who was being bear-hugged by Yue who was having a diner of her life. She walked towards him, "Good work, Yue'er. You have entered Quasi-Grandmaster." Wang Lei smiled, completely ignoring the person who has drunk his blood that could match the amount of 5 grown men.

Qingyue nodded happily. "Fuahh~ that was incredible Wang Lei! Your blood is just heavenly!" Yue who finished drinking his blood said with her blank expression. Hearing her Wang Lei smiled while patting her head. "Did you enjoyed it? you can drink it anytime you want"

"Really!?" Seeing him nodding, she finally smiled that was enough to capture the hearts of many men. "Now I should go and help, Qingyue!" She looked back but saw Qingyue looking towards her and hits her head, "Its big sister for you" Rubbing her head with tears in her eyes she says "But I am older!"

Qingyue didn't say anything but just raised her fist, "Big Sister, ok?". Yue nodded with a pout.

Wang Lei smiled at their interaction and said, "We should continue then!" he started to walk towards the door, saving the corpse of scorpion in the way.

Yue that was walking at the right side of Wang Lei asked, "What are you guys doing in this abyss?"

"A vacation!" Wang Lei said.

"Because I was bored!" Qingyue said.

Yue wide eye looked at both of them with sweat between her brows and was thinking, 'Are they sane?! They have chosen this abyss for their vacation?!' She was wondering what her future holds for her but happily followed after them.
