《The Divine Traits》Chapter 5: The Dungeon
Advertisement
-1 week later-
Jericho was settling in well with the convoy he got to know the lieutenants of the "Dungeoneers" as they called themselves since they were in the same cart as him, there was Quid the Birthmark guard who was actually really shy, Reynor who was the lead guard who was really surprising, he would never stop saying whatever was on his mind. Jericho enjoyed the company since he was alone for almost a week. Then when the week came to a close they arrived at the mouth of what looked like a cave. Jericho joined everyone at the entrance to the cave
"seems like its a wolfmen dungeon," Reynor said relaxed
"well this was a waste," Zelus said
"what's wrong with a wolfmen dungeon" Jericho questioned
"they are one of the most common and easy dungeons out there the only profit from this will be the boss core" Zelus answered
-well, that answers my question Not, what the hell is a boss core... know what I'm not even going to ask if he goes into a rant we won't get this done-
the group walked into the dungeon and was immediately assaulted by 3 bipedal wolf-like creatures
"Formations now" Zelus Called out not even in a panic
Jericho was then sent to the back of the group with 4 other guards he didn't know.
"Jericho lets test if you have magic, try and pull energy from your body and move it to your hands" Zelus stated as he casually blocked and ducked attacks from the wolfmen
Jericho tried to focus on his hands when immediately they started to glow gold, In the corner of his vision a blue screen popped up
Archaic Skillset 1/∞ unlocked Ethereal Ethereal Workshop Build any type of ethereal weapon in an instant, grade: slightly above average Ethereal Blade Dancer: combat mode While using an ethereal weapon the weapon will attack on instinct and will take over for weapon form if the user is not trained also block any attacks thrown the users way Ethereal Shift If the enemy tries to block an attack with a weapon the blades will fade through the weapon and hit the attacker

After Jericho read through the screen, 2 swords that seemed to almost be non-existent appeared in his hands and wouldn't come off, Just then a wolfman broke from the defenders and charged at Jericho, right when it was about to stab Jericho in the gut his hands seemed to move by themselves and blocked the attack, his hands then seemed to move at the speed of light repeatably stabbing the wolfmen in what seemed to be every weak point Jericho could see
*POOF*
The wolfmen fell to the ground defeated and exploded from existence leaving behind a small crystal behind
In the trees above a squirrel seemed to be laughing as he watched from his little alcove in the tree
"Um..." Jericho muttered "hah these things are so weak" Jericho gloated every eye from the "Dungeoneers" was on him
"What the fuck was that, new bearers aren't that strong" Zelus announced his temperature aura fluctuated as if even it was surprised
"um I've been trained almost all my life in swordplay" Jericho lied, He hadn't even seen a sword up until last week
"well thank fucking god for that, we might have lost you without it!! man those swords are cool seems you're a frontliner now" Zelus announced
Jericho picked up the little crystal that the wolfmen dropped it vanished without a trace, but the group didn't even notice it, but a blue screen did

The Interstellar Artship
Hello? Traveler? Hi. My name is Silas. I’m the Chronicler around here. Might I entreat you to stay with us a while? We are a meager fleet of artships, eking our way across the charred and shrewd universe. Please, join us around the table and tell us your story. Our lives depend on it. I’m sure you know this world proves demanding, strange, and lonely. But here we go together, a caravan fleet of spacefarers, challenging the starry frontier, investigating the strangeness. Our warp-drives run on inspiration—a volatile fuel collected from the active minds of the artists, writers, and musicians among us. But the clock runs out—the Heartless in their scarships seek to destroy all that is beautiful, systematically deconstructing all creativity in order to fuel their weapons and feed their evil powers. We’ve all been hurt by those hateful devourers. We’ve all lost loved ones. But no more. No more, I say! Together we unite and make our arduous journey to the dreadful Shattered Suns—the home of our enemy. Once and for all the question shall be answered—the path to life shall show itself. **** If you would like to read the Artifacts which Silas and the Sojournor crew restore, visit our patreon page.

"How do you run the mafia?" he questions, wiping the corner of his mouth. "Well, I ground myself enough to not let the power get to my head, but I let myself get pissed enough to deal with motherfuckers like you," I say, calmly, picking up the hammer from Cameron's hand and making my way back over to the asshole, who flinches when I crouch down in front of him.
