"So this is the first dungeon chief Darwin was talking about." (Ender)

"Yes, I came here to open it for you." (Dorumo)

The dungeon is inside a cave and has an old door with vines growing from it and with the symbol of the summoner class at the center of it.

"Dorumo I have a question." (Ender)

"Yes what is it hero-sama?" (Dorumo)

"Why do you need to come here, why can't I open it by myself since it's my class it should respond to me opening it." (Ender)

"Interesting question hero-sama." (Dorumo)

"I was just wondering why I can't open it but you can." (Ender)

"the dungeon only responds to a special chant I can only use and chanting it requires a lot of mana to even open. Your mana count is much lower than a normal adventurer at this level." (Dorumo)

"Makes sense, I get it now." (Ender)

"Well then let us open this dungeon up." (Dorumo)

Dorumo chanted strange words that I wasn't able to understand but somehow the symbol started to glow and with some time the door fully opened and a wave of bats flew out of the dungeon.

"That took more mana than I thought, your trip must be worth it since it's going to take me a while to recover this much mana hero-sama." (Dorumo)

"Yes, of course, thanks again." (Ender)

"The chief already told you the rules before entering the dungeon right?" (Dorumo)

"Yes" (Ender)

"Since the soldiers are wary of you, I will cover for your disappearance and everything else." (Dorumo)

"Thank you Dorumo for everything you have done up until now." (Ender)

"Yes, I will willingly help the summoner hero as long as it is for the good of the kingdom." (Dorumo)

"Right." (Ender)

"Good luck hero, I will be taking my leave now." (Dorumo)

"Okay, goodbye Dorumo may we meet again!" (Ender)

Thank goodness Dorumo did not read my mind up until the fight since the reason for me being this motivated was because I wanted revenge for the things the senator has done to me up until this point. I was ready to give up any humanity to the kingdom I had before.

"Let's see, the dungeon has three floors total and two floors have not been recorded." (Ender)

When I went down further the door suddenly closed and I was locked inside and the light that shined outside the giant door disappeared and the dark covered everything in sight.

"I forgot I was locked here in total darkness, thank goodness I knew how to change elements before." (Ender)

"Summon Dark Wolf pack!" (Ender)

*fluke plays*

"Change element: Fire Wolf pack!" (Ender)

"Thanks to this I can now see clearly, now time to find the stairs to the second floor." (Ender)

*Bow fires* (from an undead skeleton)

"Yeah, I forgot this place was infested with monsters and undead" (Ender)

Thankfully my summons can control that so I have nothing to worry about, I need to order them to protect me and find the second floor since I have nine summons available I can make the other three wolves find the stairs.

*Fluke plays*

"Change order: Scout" (Ender)

*Awooooo*

"Thank goodness, I can see what they're seeing in the map so I can find the stairs more quickly now time to loot anything in this floor if anything possible." (Ender)

After a long hour of looking for loot on the first floor I came to realize that every nook and cranny has been looted, I fought all the undead that was still roaming around and all I got were exp..

"Damn, I thought this place is a bit stored with loot for me to get." (Ender)

When my spirits were low the wolves finally found the stairs to the second floor and I rushed toward the long haled dungeon.

"Finally, the second-floor stairs I was wondering where these stairs were." (Ender)

I descended down the long stairs and came upon the second floor and full of joy I rushed to place my camp on this floor.

"The second floor of the dungeon, the unexplored place in this dungeon, I wonder why this was not been explored." (Ender)

*Step*

*crash*

"Whoa, traps!"

"I finally know why this floor was not explored really much, the traps are laid in this floor." (Ender)

"Summon dark rock mole!" (Ender)

*fluke plays*

"Change element: nature rock mole!" (Ender)

With this summon "Rock mole" it can sense inequality in the ground and the surrounding but it needs sound to locate the problem.

*tap*

*Fluke plays*

"Summon vision!" (Ender)

"With what I learned from the chief, I can use this skill and use my summoned spirit's point of view." (Ender)

Now the unequal ground can now be sensed by me and my summons, but as I moved forward a large roar was heard from afar.

*Scrreecchhhh*

"What, A griffin!?" (Ender)

The griffin charged towards me with its claws first and flew faster than the traps being triggered by it.

"Summon dark grand turtle!" (Ender)

*crash*

"That summon took a large part of my mana just to block this annoying bird!" (Ender)

*Gulp Gulp*

I drank the mana potion I packed for this raid and change the turtle's property to "Iron Tortoise" which lowered its attack, speed, crit. And increases the defense by 30% it's better than the one before.

*Roar*

"What the hell, a ground dino!" (Ender)

"Summon Dark grand turtle!" (Ender)

"Shit, this place is crowded with strong monsters from the waves!" (Ender)

*Gulp Gulp*

"Summon Dark phoenix pack!" (Ender)

*Screech*

"Now that should take care of them both, time to buff them." (Ender)

*Fluke plays*

"Buff: Zando backfire!" (Ender)

Dark Phoenix

ATK: 3198 + 754

DEF: 1847 + 754

CRIT: 10%

SPECIAL: Emits dark aura that damages hostile attackers and increases spirit capture

Buff effect: Sets attackers on fire and has a chance to increase the speed of summon

That took care of those two beasts of a creatures, it took a bit of time to kill them since they are five levels above me but it was no big deal to beat.

*New summon Griffin, Ground Dragon*

"Nice new summons and they cost 200 mana to summon so it must be a worthwhile experience to use it." (Ender)

"Now time to go back up the first floor!" (Ender)

When I tried to go to the first floor a magic barrier prevented me from going back the stairs, and I remembered that the dungeon was designed to keep people from going back and find the actual exit which is located on the third floor of this dungeon.

"That's another reason why this place was not yet been explored, it's brutal to be here after all." (Ender)

*slash*

*Poke*

*Whipppp*

"HA HA HA" (???)

"HE HE HE" (???)

"What the!?" (???)

I heard a laugh from afar it seems like my mole is still active, I knew the location to go since the echo it created became stronger once I got closer to it.

"HA HA HA" (Goblins)

What I saw was horrifying, a barely alive girl being raped and badly wounded by goblins it was such a horrible sight to see, I remembered the time my teammates also tortured me to near death.

"H-Help m-me!" (Wounded girl)

The girl cried out to me in sorrow about to die to her wounds, I was surprised she didn't kill herself because of this pain.

*Whippp* (Goblin attacked her)

*Blegh* (She threw up blood)

"HAHA" (Goblin)

"You terrible creatures, torturing women because of pleasure! You will never see the light of day after what you've done." (Ender)

The four goblins rushed towards me with spears and knives while the other one was going to stab the girl through the heart.

*Fluke plays*

"Zando Paralyze!" (Ender)

"ARRGGGHHH" (Goblins)

I hurried toward the unconscious girl and broke the chains to her hands and carried her by my back.

"Summon!" (Ender)

The pure hatred of my heart for these creatures have skyrocketed to the point I almost released the calamity inside me, this girl must have endured so much before I came so let me murder these goblins whose done her wrong.

"Calamity rabbits!" (Ender)

The rabbits I summoned came from the hatred I feel for these creatures have done to this poor girl, the rabbits chew and ate everything and devoured the inside of the five goblins. Liver, brain, intestine, eyes, and bones they ate them all until there was nothing left to be seen of them.

"I need to heal her quickly or else she's going to die, I guess I can make this area my camp for a while." (Ender)

*Fluke plays*

"Great heal!" (Ender)

*Fluke plays*

"Great heal!" (Ender)

*Fluke plays*

"Great heal!" (Ender)

I used three great heals to just stop her bleeding and internal bleeding, if it weren't for my summons I would have not found her. I guess being the summoner hero is also rewarding at times like this.

*one hour later*

"HNGGGG.... AHHHHH!" (Unknown Girl)

"You're awake now, nice to meet you." (Ender)

"W-Who are you, please don't do anything to me!" (Girl)

"Woah, Woah don't be scared I was the one who saved you from those goblins." (Ender)

"R-Really? T-Thank you." (Unknown Girl)

"Here are some spare clothes, sorry if these are unappealing for you." (Ender)

"N-No, Thank you for these." (Unknown Girl)

She sure is the shy one, her body type is kind of small and frail her hair is light silver and snow-white skin. Everything about her screams beautiful and majestic.

"By the way, what's your name?" (Ender)

"N-Noelle" (Noelle)

"Ahh, Noelle I see it's a charming name." (Ender)

"T-Thank you." (Noelle)

"Here, eat up." (Ender)

"What, n-no thanks." (Noelle)

*Rumble Rumble* (Noelle)

"Are you sure you're not hungry" (Ender)

"Ehhh... T-T-Thank Y-You." (Noelle)

I cooked the meat he chief has packed and prepared for this dungeon, everything he did was grateful and I want to avenge him one day.

"Here, drink this." (Ender)

"Blegh... it's bitter!" (Noelle)

"Hoi, drink it! The herbs help destroy the semen the goblins have given to you and the magic helps your body becomes stronger." (Ender)

"O-Okay." (Noelle)

"Blegh... it's bad!" (Noelle)

"Hey, bear it!" (Ender)

"W-Why did you save me?" (Noelle)

"I saved you because you and I share the same torture, I saved you only for that reason and nothing else." (Ender)

"........." (Noelle)

"I'll be on guard for tonight so don't worry if you feel scared or frightened." (Ender)

"T-Thank you? I-I don't know your name yet." (Noelle)

"Ender Yamashita or you can call me Ender." (Ender)

"Okay, thank you Ender-Kun." (Noelle)

My trauma for having a team still lingers in me, I don't know if I should make her help me in my fights, my mind is full of thoughts and fears about what will happen to me if she betrays me like the others.

"Hghhnnn...P-PAPA HELP ME!" (Noelle)

She jumped out of her bed and what seemed to be a bad dream, she was crying tears and looked like she went through something bad.

"Don't worry Noelle, I'm here it's okay!" (Ender)

"I-I'm sorry Ender-Kun!" (Noelle)

"No problem, you were having a bad dream, I was worried about you." (Ender)

"Worried? I am nothing but a worthless elf a shy and unappealing elf, I have no worth at all." (Noelle)

She sounds a lot like me when I was still starting out as a hero, the pain, fear, and torture that has passed me have been terrible just like hers.

"No, no one is worthless everyone has some kind of worth to them, practice and hope will guide you to become a big help and a good person." (Ender)

"E-Ender-Kun UWWWWAAA!!" (Noelle)

"Cry all you want, just know someone is there to support you." (Ender)

Those words came right out of my mind, the chief gave me a huge leap when it comes to self-appreciation and helped me become a hero to myself.

"She's fast asleep now, I wonder what happened before I found her in the summoner dungeon?" (Ender)

My mind was scared of the fact that getting a teammate would be a huge trouble, but since today and the way I act now, it's pretty clear that I have changed a bit so my first plan now.

"Make Noelle stronger!" (Ender)

That is my first plan to do in this dungeon since monsters here are strong so she could gain a lot of exp. From them and to loot the second and third floor of this dungeon is a primary objective.

"Noelle, I will help you for your happy future and defense I will help you through every way possible." (Ender)

***

When Noelle woke up from her rest we immediately begun to raid this place, I summoned three wolves to scout from the right, while we go and scout the area from the left.

"Hey, Noelle" (Ender)

"Yes, Ender-Kun?" (Noelle)

"Here, these are some arrows and a bow I found while exploring this far." (Ender)

"Ehhh...B-But I-I don't K-Know how to use a bow." (Noelle)

"Don't worry, see that hoard of undead." (Ender)

"EEEKKKK...I-I don't know how t-to use a bow!" (Noelle)

"Hey, I can't fight alone in this dungeon I might get outnumbered." (Ender)

"Here, I'll teach you how to use the bow and arrow." (Ender)

"O-Okay, I-I guess I could try." (Noelle)

After some hours of helping her use the bow, she barely got the gist of it and can at least help out a bit when it comes to killing minor annoying creatures.

"........." (Noelle)

"Look, it's okay to not know how to use a weapon in day 1 maybe you just need more practice." (Ender)

"B-But, you put so much hard work on me a-and I barely learned how to shoot the bow." (Noelle)

She really is caring to others, I was not expecting her to be such a shy girl from her looks alone she may have a ton of admirers.

"But hey, you got lots of experience from those undead you just killed." (Ender)

"Yeah, I gained 5 levels from them!" (Noelle)

"Well yeah, they are far more over-leveled than you of course you gain much more exp. From that." (Ender's mind)

"Look! An unopened chest Ender-Kun." (Noelle)

"Wait, Noelle." (Ender)

"W-Why?" (Noelle)

"Noelle shoot your bow." (Ender)

"HUH... why it's just a chest?" (Noelle)

"Trust me, do it!" (Ender)

"O-Okay then." (Noelle)

*Shoot* (Noelle's bow)

*CHOMP* (Mimic)

"I knew it." (Ender)

"A M-Mimic!" (Noelle)

"Yeah! We could have been bitten by that." (Ender)

"Stand by, Noelle!" (Ender)

*Fluke plays* (Ender's fluke)

"Zando Paralyze!" (Ender)

"Wow!" (Noelle)

*Whiippp* (Ender's whip)

"Hmph... How's that Noelle?" (Ender)

"So cool Ender-Kun!" (Noelle)

"Thanks!" (Ender)

"That's one cool sword? Or Whip?" (Noelle)

"Ahhh... it's a mix of both sword and whip, I called it Dundelir." (Ender)

"Wowww!" (Noelle)

"Being flattered by her makes me feel really happy, I guess its not that bad to be a hero after all."

"Ender-Kun, Look the wall disappeared!" (Ender's mind)

"Yeah." (Ender)

When I defeated the mimic the magic wall behind me disappeared and revealed a hidden chest that was unopened.

"Finally, a good chest." (Ender)

"Let's see what's inside." (Ender)

When I opened the chest, I was rewarded a summoner cloak and various magical armor, and lots of gold and ore.

"Noelle!" (Ender)

"Yes!" (Noelle)

"Here, take this armor and wear it." (Ender)

"Huh...I-I can't accept this!" (Noelle)

"I don't plan on giving it to others." (Ender)

"O-Okay, Thank you Ender-Kun!" (Noelle)

When she was done changing I critiqued her attire.

"You look cute in it!" (Ender)

"U-Um... T-Thank you!" (Noelle)

"You're really shy!" (Ender)

"S-Sorry if that bothers you, I have anxiety and trust issues with strangers!" (Noelle)

"Don't worry, it doesn't bother at all." (Ender)

"I forgot that we just met yesterday, it felt like we were really close." (Ender's mind)

"Look Ender-Kun another chest!" (Noelle)

"Yeah...good eyes!" (Ender)

We ended up looting all the chest that wasn't looted in the left part of the dungeon and taught more things to Noelle about using the bow, she finally got the hang of it and got a ton of levels from it.

"Well what do you know...We already reached the end of the dungeon!" (Noelle)

"Yeah, let's head back and go to the base, my summons are done scouting the right part of the dungeon." (Ender)

"Yeah!" (Noelle)

*Tap tap tap* (sounds of a running creature)

"Something's coming!" (Ender's mind)

"Noelle, behind me!" (Ender)

"Summon Dark grand turtle!" (Ender)

*Bash* (hits the turtle's spiked shell)

"Hnggggg!" (Ender)

*Crack* (turtle's shell)

"What, Impossible! The shell is cracked." (Ender)

"What is that?" (Noelle)

When I laid eyes on the creature, it was something that scared me a dark blue skin that fits well with the dark blue dungeon, scales that protect this beast, 3 giant dog heads, a level that can't be read, it was a terrifying sight to see.

"What, its level can't be this big!" (Ender)

"Noelle, ready your bow!" (Noelle)

When I looked at Noelle, she was pale than before and she was shocked to the point of death and she was tearing up.

"E-Ender-Kun, that's the monster that brought me here and killed my mother!" (Noelle)

"What!" (Ender)

"No wonder she was traumatized when she laid eyes on that giant hulking beast, that's the monster that has made her life miserable." (Ender's mind)

*ROOOOAARRRR* (the creature)

*Bash* (hits the turtle's shell)

"It's got some power to it!" (Ender)

"Summon dark butterflies!" (Ender)

*Boom* (dark butterflies explosion)

"Those explosions should keep those heads busy!" (Ender)

"Noelle, Shoot your bow while it's distracted!" (Ender)

"N-No, M-Mama!" (Noelle)

"I-I can't d-d-do i-it" (Noelle)

*AWOOOOOOO* (the creature)

*Bash* (hits the wall)

*Boom* (hit's the shell)

"Grand turtle's shell has been obliterated" (Ender's mind)

"Noelle, Get out of there!" (Ender)

*AWOOOOOO* (The creature)

"N-NO, d-don't kill me!" (Noelle)

I had no other choice, I rushed in and guarded the attack using another grand turtle, my entire mana pool was depleted giving me only one more weak spell, and it left me open for another attack.

"E-Ender-Kun!?" (Noelle)

"Damn it, I guess I have to go offensive now!" (Ender)

*Fluke plays* (Ender's fluke)

"Hando paralyze!" (Ender)

"What it didn't work, i-its scales protect him from magic too!?" (Ender's mind)

"Go to hell!" (Ender)

"HIIIYYYAAA!" (Ender)

*Swoosh* (Dundelir)

*Clank* (hits the scales of the creature)

"WHAT! It's scales are indestructible!" (Ender)

*ROOOAARR* (the creature preparing an attack)

*BASH* (hits Ender)

*Blegh* (Ender throws up blood)

"Damn, a direct impact is probably good, I wish I can use the bow." (Ender's mind)

When I looked at Noelle, she was scared and shocked at what happened to me and my blood-covered head. I can see the distress and worry she has for me with her eyes.

"N-Noelle, this is the last of my mana, get out of here while it's still targeting me." (Ender)

"S-Summon dark wolf!" (Ender)

"Thank God I summoned that water leech before summoning anything else." (Ender's mind)

"R-Ride this and get away from here, carry this loot and use it for your own and survive no matter what." (Ender)

"I-I am sorry Dorumo, Chief Darwin, Anthony, Yuna. I-I was stupid and weak." (Ender)

"N-NO, how can I leave the one who saved me all alone and about to get killed!" (Noelle)

"I want to help you and face my past, that is what I intend to do even if it risks my life I will do that accordingly!" (Noelle)

When she said that I knew she grew and is now better than me in every single way, her trust and belief in my strength are genuine and true.

*Shoot* (Noelle's bow)

*strike* (Noelle hits the creature)

*ARRRGGHHHH... AWOOOO" (The creature)

*shoot* (Noelle's bow)

*strike* (Noelle hits the 2nd head of the creature)

"G-GET AWAY FROM ME!" (Noelle)

*shoot* (Noelle's bow)

*strike* (Noelle hits the 3rd head of the creature)

*drop* (the creature dies)

She shot the 3 dog head precisely where I wanted her to shoot it, and killed the dog, and saved my life from death.

"E-Ender-Kun are you okay!?" (Noelle)

"Y-You've grown so much Noelle!" (Ender)

"D-Don't say that, answer me clearly!" (Noelle)

"I'm fine, in fact, I can walk just fine." (Ender)

"Thank goodness!" (Noelle)

After I took a break and regenerate my mana I healed both of our wounds and headed to our base camp and get some rest.

"New summon: Houndloom" (Ender's mind)

"I guess I captured a new summon from that fight we had." (Ender)

When I looked at Noelle she was a little bit cheerful, the look on her face is easily describable.

"We got a lot of exp. From that dog, huh." (Ender)

"Y-Yes, I gained 10 levels from that."

"Of course you did, that monster was a hell of a tough one to beat even for me." (Ender's mind)

"E-Ender-Kun a-are you an adventurer?" (Noelle)

"I can't tell her I'm the summoner hero, it may cause her to kill me. I'll just go with the flow for now." (Ender's mind)

"Yes, I am an adventurer why do you ask?" (Ender)

"I-I want to join your party!" (Noelle)

Noelle requested to join your party.

Accept

Decline

When she asked me that request a message popped up saying she requested to join my party, I can never accept such words anymore the damage is too great to consider it.

"I-I am sorry, I can't accept your request, I go alone on my adventures." (Ender)

"B-But, I can help you!" (Noelle)

"I SAID I DON'T WANT A TEAMMATE!" (Ender)

"......" (Noelle)

"I was too harsh to her, I wish I can take that back with every cell of my body." (Ender's mind)

"I-I'm sorry, I was being too harsh." (Ender)

"I-It's okay, I am useless after all and I have no skill of weapons whatsoever." (Noelle)

"I just want to repay you with everything I have for freeing me and taking care of me since yesterday. I don't know how to repay you except for giving my help." (Noelle)

"You don't have to repay me anything, it's just instinct to help someone in trouble especially if it violates the body. Naturally I would not ignore you." (Ender)

"But you still saved me." (Noelle)

"I-I'm sorry if I can't grant your wish Noelle." (Ender)

"It's fine." (Noelle)

After that, we finally arrived at our camp and took a break and cooked some meat, and with stomachs full, we headed to bed while my summons patrols the perimeter of our camp.
