Capítulo 22: The Conditions For Being The Worst

"Axel..."

A faint but familiar voice called Axel's name from deep in his dreams. Axel opened his eyes slowly, trying to understand the origin of the voice. He tried to wake up from his sleep, but still felt like he was trapped between the real world and a dream.

"Who's that?" Axel muttered hoarsely, trying to clarify his thoughts. The voice sounded so close, but at the same time it felt so far away, as if trapped in the flow of a dream.

Axel stretched a little, trying to focus his gaze on his surroundings. He felt confused, unsure if he had actually heard the voice or if it was just his imagination.

As Axel wondered about the voice calling his name, the dungeon suddenly rumbled with a force that shook him. Axel felt a strong vibration around him, as if the dungeon itself was responding to his presence.

He felt his heart pounding in his chest, facing this sudden event with increased alertness. He tried to remain calm, even though the vibrations and rumbling disturbed him.

But for Axel, the rumblings and strange phenomena on the 48th floor had become a routine thing. He was used to the mysterious events that occurred in this dungeon, which often made him feel wary but also interested.

Even though the roar that occurred this time might be stronger than usual, Axel didn't panic. Instead, he maintained his composure and tried to understand what was going on around him.

Axel moved carefully and quietly towards the lake where the roars of various monsters could be heard quite loudly. He felt interested in finding out what was going on around the lake, despite being aware of the potential dangers involved.

With slow steps, Axel tried to remain invisible and minimize the sound of his steps. He focused his attention on the sounds around the lake, trying to identify the type of monsters that might be gathering there.

In the midst of the mysterious darkness of the dungeon, the voices of the monsters became increasingly clear to Axel. He tried to understand the situation around the lake without being too obvious, preparing himself to act if necessary.

Axel stepped closer to the edge of the lake, making sure he remained hidden and undetected by the monsters gathered there.

Axel felt tense when he saw a crowd of monsters bigger than before around the lake. He realized that this situation might threaten his safety, but it also aroused deep curiosity.

"Such a large crowd of monsters… What is going on here?" Axel muttered to himself, trying to understand the situation around him. "Did they come together for a specific purpose, or was this just a coincidence?"

Thoughts swirled inside Axel's head as he looked at the crowd of monsters. He knew that he had to remain calm and alert, carefully observing every move of the monsters around him.

Axel was surprised when he saw a figure standing slightly taller than the crowd of monsters, with a striking dark green color. He felt the strong presence of the figure and couldn't help but recognize what was in front of him.

"Orc Lord..." muttered Axel in a trembling voice, realizing that he was facing a very influential figure among the Orc monsters. He felt tense but also interested in observing what would happen next.

The Orc Lord was an imposing figure with a large and strong build. He was taller than the average Orc monster, with a muscular and full body. Its skin is dark green, reflecting strength and awesomeness.

The Orc Lord's face was filled with typical Orcish features, such as a large jaw with sharp teeth and piercing eyes. His expression was serious and firm, reflecting leadership and wisdom among orc monsters.

The Orc Lord wore a shield and strong armor, showing that he was a trained leader and ready for battle. At his waist hung a large weapon, perhaps a mace or a sword, which indicated extraordinary combat power.

The Orc Lord's figure stood steadily in the crowd of monsters, becoming the center of attention and authority. His existence aroused respect among other monsters, and he was seen as an undoubted figure in this dungeon world.

Even though it was scary, Axel couldn't ignore the aura that the Orc Lord had. His presence reminded Axel of the importance of being alert and ready to face any situation that might come before him.

Seen from various dungeon passages, monsters of various races appeared, such as kobolds, goblins, orcs, even some Trolls, and also a figure with grayish black fur known as the Dark Wolf. They came from various directions, making the crowd even busier and adding to the tension around the lake.

Axel felt as if the monsters were gathering troops and preparing for a major invasion. The crowd of monsters around the lake looked organized and focused, showing a serious attitude of preparation.

Kobolds, with their swift and coordinated movements, seem to form small groups ready to act as reconnaissance or rapid attack troops.

Goblins, although mixed up, show readiness to participate in mass actions. They may act as the main strike force, with the chaos and tension they bring.

Orcs, as natural leaders among monsters, set strategy and provide direction to their troops. They appear to have been a key element in the planning and execution of this invasion.

Trolls, with great physical strength, seemed ready to become pillars of strength in physical attacks. They may be the main attacking force in this invasion.

And Dark Wolf, with its high intelligence, might have a special role in the invasion plan. They could have acted as spies or strategists among other monsters.

Axel felt tense and alert watching the preparations for this invasion.

"It looks like this place isn't safe anymore," Axel muttered slowly as he started to move away from the lake area which was busy with crowds of monsters preparing for invasion.

There were various sounds simultaneously, as if various monsters were preparing for battle. Loud noises, shouts, and roars made the atmosphere even more tense and full of tension in the dungeon.

Axel felt his adrenaline rise when he heard the voices. The atmosphere around him became increasingly unsafe, and he realized that he had to quickly leave the area before getting caught in a huge battle between monsters.

These sounds signal that an invasion or major battle is being organized or taking place in the dungeon. Axel does not want to be involved in this conflict, especially with his current conditions and limitations.

Carefully, Axel continued to step back, looking for a safe escape route from the chaos that might occur around him. The sounds gave him a clear warning to immediately move away from a potentially dangerous situation and avoid the inevitable battle.
