…
Futarou whistled while looking at his status screen before focusing on what caused the loud roar.
Beneath them, the floor started cracking, two hands shot up before pressing on the ground, trying to get itself up.
Futarou immediately appraised it:
[Mountain Sovereign]
[Rank: S]
[Description: The next evolution of a Mountain Lord. Carved from the earth's core, they shape landscapes and command nature's rhythms with effortless might. Their influence extends beyond the physical, embodying the essence of mountainous power.]
'It feels completely different than an S-rank Hunter; it's on a whole different level of power. Well, I'm not just going to wait for it to escape.'
Futarou immediately summoned his Grimoire, causing the pages to start flipping.
[Curse/Debuff Magic: Slowness + Cursed Ground + Weakness + Shackled + Frailty + Sunder Armor + Confusion]
One after the other, Futarou started throwing most of the curses he had learned toward the rising giant. The giant looked almost still, but ever so slightly, it was rising.
"Everyone, attack it together," Futarou commanded.
Puck opened his mouth and sent a large beam of ice, which had the power to turn anything it touched to absolute zero.
Tohru sent a beam of flames, but it wasn't just her usual flames; no, it was a beam of pure destruction.
Orion conjured a large Trident, each point of the Trident spinning like drills, increasing its penetrating abilities.
"I'll show you guys what I can really do!" Voltara excitedly exclaimed, creating a large thundercloud. Lightning crackled between the clouds before all drawing near to a certain point. The lightning slowly started growing an orange color before gaining a tiny bit of red. Voltara joined the others, bringing her attack toward their opponents.
Paimon didn't want to be left behind as she manifested from her metal vessel. Instead of her usual blue skin, her entire body seemed to be constructed of violent winds.
She raised her arms to the sky, creating a tornado with sharp blades and a great cutting force. She dropped it down toward the rising titan, which attacked like a sort of drill.
All of their attacks came together as if all natural forces of the world were against the Mountain Sovereign. It didn't even have a chance to react or defend itself.
It started to immediately crumble into pieces. Futarou detected its core. Before it could get destroyed by their combined attack, he used Ruler's Authority to take it away, knowing it would be worth a lot of money.
As it was ripped out from its being, the Mountain Sovereign ended up being completely destroyed without a fighting chance or a chance to reconstruct itself.
[50,000 exp]
A giant crater was all that was left from their collective attacks, a giant crater and items that started to form from defeating a monster.
There were four items where the golem once stood: a pair of black fingerless gloves, a large brown hammer with a long handle, boots with a sharp rock design, and a mana stone, which caused Futarou to raise a brow at that and look at the core that was in his hands.
[Name: Power Core]
[Type: Energy Core]
[Rank: S]
[Description: The Mountain Sovereign's source of power and strength, harboring a vast reservoir of energy that could fuel a city for months, if not years. Contains a large amount of Earth elemental energy]
Futarou lowered himself and started examining all the other items.
[Name: Titan's Grasp]
[Type: Equipment]
[Rank: S]
[Description: A pair of fingerless gloves made from the very essences of a giant who has laid slumbering on the Earth's core]
[Attributes: Colossal Strength: Grants the wearer immense strength, quadrupling their physical power, allowing them to lift and manipulate objects of colossal size with ease.
Core Infusion: Channels the primal energy of the Earth's core, granting the wearer resilience against extreme temperatures and environmental hazards.
Ironclad Hold: Grants the wearer an unshakeable grip, allowing them to firmly grasp onto any object or surface, resisting even the strongest forces attempting to pry them loose.
Earthquake Impact: Empowers the wearer's strikes with seismic force, causing the ground to tremble and fracture upon impact, destabilizing foes and hindering their movements.]
'Nice, I'm definitely putting these on,' Futarou inwardly praised before examining the other objects.
[Name: Titan's Hammer]
[Type: Weapon]
[Rank: S]
[Description: A hammer made from the very essences of a giant who has laid slumbering on the Earth's core]
[Attributes: Magma Infusion: Engulfs the hammer in molten lava upon command, increasing its destructive potential and causing enemies struck by it to suffer intense burns.
Earthshaker's Wrath: Charges the hammer with seismic energy, unleashing devastating shockwaves upon impact that rupture the earth and send enemies flying.
Gravitational Crush: Manipulates the gravitational forces around the hammer upon impact, pulling enemies towards it with irresistible force, leaving them vulnerable to follow-up attacks.
Titan's Endurance: Grants the wielder unparalleled resilience, allowing them to endure even the most devastating of blows and continue fighting with unwavering determination.]
'I'm not a hammer guy; I'll probably give it to Dad to see if he likes it.'
[Name: Giant Steps]
[Type: Equipment]
[Rank: S]
[Description: Boots made from the very essences of a giant who has laid slumbering on the Earth's core]
[Attributes: Earthbound Speed: Grants the wearer double the swiftness and agility, allowing them to traverse any terrain with unmatched speed and grace.
Tremor Leap: Enables the wearer to leap great distances with a single bound, causing shockwaves upon landing that stagger and disorient nearby foes.
Stonebreaker Kick: Empowers the wearer's kicks with incredible force, capable of shattering stone and knocking down even the sturdiest of opponents.
Earth's Embrace: Allows the wearer to meld with the earth itself, granting temporary invisibility as they phase through solid surfaces, enabling stealthy approaches or quick escapes.]
'Not bad, but not something I would see myself using,' Futarou thought after he was done examining them.
Futarou heard a sigh behind him. "You shouldn't have killed it that quickly. We wouldn't be able to gather all the mana stones and items on time before the gate closes."
Futarou just smiled toward Tsunade. "Don't worry about it, watch this."
He then closed his eyes and spread his senses all around their surroundings. He used Ruler's Authority to make all the items and mana stones start floating towards him.
"There are about 567 A-rank items and 1,487 A-rank mana stones, and 1 S-rank mana stone," Futarou said as the two piles started floating right next to him.
He then turned toward the others and smiled. "Great work, you guys," which caused them all to puff their chests with pride.
Futarou reached into his pockets and pulled out the space ring before putting it on his finger. He didn't hesitate to put on the ring as space rings were actually quite common in this world.
He reached over and stored everything inside before looking toward Tsunade.
"We'll split everything after we're done with our next dungeon. After all, these are dungeons you brought," Futarou informed Tsunade.
To his surprise, she shook her head. "Don't worry about it, they're all yours. Just think of these as investments for your future."
Futarou stared at her with his mouth agape. "Are you absolutely sure? Because if you are, you can't change your mind later on?"
Tsunade just scoffed and rolled her eyes. "Like I said, this is an investment. I'm not going to change my mind."
Futarou almost had a heart attack right then and there. And the reason for that was very simple: just from the mana stones in this dungeon alone, Futarou had made around 74 billion yen…
F Rank Mana Stone: 50,000 Yen
E Rank Mana Stone: 200,000 Yen
D Rank Mana Stone: 1,000,000 Yen
C Rank Mana Stone: 5,000,000 Yen
B Rank Mana Stone: 20,000,000 Yen
A Rank Mana Stone: 50,000,000 Yen
S Rank Mana Stone: 100,000,000 Yen
Futarou started foaming from the mouth as he made the calculations,
'1,487 × 50,000,000 = 74,350,000,000 Yen = 480,304,940.55 usd'
"..."
"WOOOOOOOAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!! BAAAAAAABBBBBBBYYYYY!! WE'RE RICH!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!"
Futarou's sudden shout caused all of them, even Tsunade, to jump in fright as they weren't expecting it. Futarou started running around in circles with his fists raised in the air.
He then took Tohru and lowered her into a big kiss before throwing his fists back in the air. "WOOO!!!"
His actions left them all stunned, unsure of what to even say. Tohru's head was swaying side to side with a blush, and smoke escaped from the top of her head. "Hehehehehehehe," she pervertedly giggled while stumbling like a drunken person.
Puck just covered his face, not wanting to be associated, while Tsunade chuckled, looking at Futarou in amusement.
Just then, the portal started opening, which caused Puck to smack Futarou upside the head to get him to calm down.
Futarou coughed into his hand and cleared his throat. "Sorry about that, it won't happen again."
"You can totally do that again, I do not mind in the slightest!" Tohru exclaimed.
Futarou blushed when he heard that, remembering what he did to her. "Anyways, let's charge ahead onto our next dungeon!" Futarou said, trying to change the subject as he was still embarrassed by his actions.
The others chuckled at his behavior before they exited the dungeon.
