Raised in Dungeon-Chapter 14 14 : Leofric Regina Wildenhall

After being smacked by Queen Orc's attack, George was motionless, not moving a bit. His blood overflowed from his armor. Blanche wanted to use her amnis to get the blood back in, but she couldn't, or rather, she shouldn't. She can only use six amnis in a day, and they are trying to raid the dungeon until tenth floor. If she used her amnis, and George already died, the amnis she used would be wasted, and Prince Leofric hated that.

On the other side. After Queen Orc fully regenerated, she ran toward George's body to hit it again. She wanted to make sure George was really dead, but...

*ZYUUT

Leofric, with his long lance, stabbed Queen Orc

'SO FAST!' thought Queen Orc.

Queen Orc, luckily could make it; she dodged to the left, so her body was safe, but her left hand was sliced off.

Queen Orc immediately kicked Leofric in the waist. As a result, Leofric shifted slightly to the left. At that moment, Queen Orc quickly leaped backward away from Leofric.

"He's fast, but I can still use my reflexes to avoid him. However, I still need some time to make my eyes get used to his speed.'

While holding her severed arm, Queen Orc realized something unusual.

"'My hand cannot regenerate,' you must be thinking that, right?" said Leofric.

Leofric cleaned the blood that covered his lance by splashing it diagonally.

"My Lance, named Heit, can erase various forms of mana. Any mana concept that Heit's tip stabbed will vanish. Your hand, which should grow back when you use your demonic mana, can't grow back because of Heit."

Hearing that from Leofric, Queen Orc was confused

'Is this his god's blessing or what? God's blessing and or amnis is manifested by using mana. so it wouldn't make sense for the user to use mana to erase other people's mana. If the concept of mana that he stabs with the lance disappears, that means he didn't use any mana to do it, so it can't be God's blessing or amnis.

"My Lord! Please don't reveal my abilities like that!" a voice came out of his lance, a child's voice.

'THE WEAPON IS TALKING!...

'That means that weapon is one of Adfectus Reliqua. This golden-haired man has cleared a dungeon before!' thought Queen Orc.

"Oya? What happened, Heit? Aren't you always happy every time I do that?" answered Leofric with nosy.

The voice, Heit, sounded irritated as it answered

"Don't mention it! The less your enemies know, the better it should be!"

Leofric gazed at Queen Orc and then said,

"Well, no problem, in the end, she is not alive either."

Queen Orc took out her knife and cut her left hand even deeper, trying to see how her regeneration ability worked. As a result, the hand she cut off regenerated until the part that Heit cut off. Leofric, who saw Queen Orc's action, suddenly laughed out loud.

"HAHAHAHAHA Look at her! I troubled myself by explaining my ability, yet she still did not believe me and tried to cut off her hand to confirm it!"

"My lord, Queen Orc seems smarter than our little Mathias's prediction. You have to be more careful from now on," warned Heit.

Behind them, Maurice readied his arrow and targeted Queen Orc. 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚

"Can I shoot now, Mathias?" he asked.

"Do it, and his highness will kill you. We cannot disturb his fight… not now."

Mathias put his hand on his chin and started thinking about something bogging down in his mind.

"This is strange… in the first place, an advanced monster like Queen Orc shouldn't be on the first floor. The reason is because the demonic mana on the first floor isn't as strong as on the seventh floor. There must be a reason why Queen Orc chooses to stay on the first floor. The queen is trully smarter than I thought. She was like a wise human clad in an orc body. Maybe she chooses to stay on the first floor because of some strategy for guarding the dungeon. But why? Monsters are just creatures made by demonic mana to live and kill, not as dungeon guardians." fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

Beside Mathias, Blanche, who was holding George's body, called him out

"Sir Mathias, please tell his highness to finish the fight as soon as possible. Mr. George is still alive. If we use the healing ability of the church, he can survive."

Mathias was the only person at that party who was close to Leofric. The other people only became Leofric's party a few times. But even so, Mathias couldn't do anything. If Leofric is smiling while fighting, he shouldn't get in the way, no matter what.

"I'm sorry, Miss Blanche, we can only pray for Mr. George's safety. After the fight with Queen Orc, I will convince his highness to retreat. If we interrupted him now, his highness would literally kill us."

Back to Queen Orc and Leofric's battle. After Queen Orc confirmed Leofric's lance, Heit's ability, she stomped the floor with her leg. As a result, the floor shattered, and beneath the floor was buried Queen Orc's weapon, a bone bludgeon.

"My lord, it is likely she has stored many weapons in various places in this room, and it's possible that—" "I know, Heit, don't dictate to me," Leofric said while smiling excitedly.

Leofric looked back at the traces of their fight with Queen Orc and realized there was a certain pattern in Queen Orc's moves during the fight.

"Oh my, five minutes ago, I felt like I could win this fight easily. But look at her now, she's locked my move with just a few moves. I couldn't ignore the possibility of other weapons hiding in the ground or traps nearby. This meant she could keep a spear, a whip, or possibly a fire shoot... And to confirm it…"

Leofric called out Maurice

"Maurice! Try throwing anything as hard as you can where George fought with Queen Orc."

Without asking Leofric anything, Maurice grabbed George's shield and threw it as hard as he could at the ground where Queen Orc stood before.

-WOOOSH

A spear shot straight up out of the ground near the floor (that hit by the shield). That speed was not deadly, but it was enough to cause a slight wound and could be used as a surprise attack.

"Fyuuh, I hope I am wrong this time, and by the way, she really gave us a time to do that…" said Leofric.

Queen Orc just stood there, putting up a defensive stance. Heit finally realizes what Leofric is trying to say.

"I understand. It is strange. She just stood there, waiting for us to attack. Why didn't she brutally attack us? Don't monsters have a high urge and desire to kill?" "I don't know, Heit you better kill your logic to fight her."

With a big grin on his face, Leofric runs towards Queen Orc with incredible speed.

"MY LORD?! You completely killed your logic and ignored the possible trap she laid?!" said Heit in panic.

Seeing Leofric's action, Queen Orc also runs towards Leofric.

While running, Queen Orc raised her bludgeon and aimed at Leofric's head. Leofric, aware of that, ignored Queen Orc's aim and focused on Queen Orc's right leg.

But unexpectedly…

Instead of attacking Leofric's head, Queen Orc threw her bludgeon at Leofric.

"WHAT?!" Leofric shocked.

Leofric was now forced to abort his attack. He can only dodge to the left, right, or ward off the bludgeon with his lance.

Leofric chose to dodge the bludgeon, he intended to attack Queen Orc's leg after he dodged.

After swiping out Queen Orc's bludgeon, Leofric saw Queen Orc trying to stomp her foot again on the floor.

'This is bad! The bludgeon she used just now was bait to block my view!'

Leofric quickly directs his lance toward Queen Orc's body.

But Leofric is not quick enough.

Queen Orc's right foot stomped the floor. From the floor, a spear shot up.

'SO THIS IS ALL ACCORDING TO HER PLANS!'

In that short moment, Queen Orc spat out her saliva directly at Leofric's face. She picked up the spear in the air and tried to attack Leofric's right hand with it.

'The spit? Is it poisonous? Or have an acid effect? But I shouldn't think about that! Two attacks at once, I can't avoid both!' thought Leofric.

From the back, in front of the passage, they heard the sound of a boy's scream.

"MOTHEEEER!!!"

Queen Orc immediately recognized the source of the noise.

'ALLEN!!!'

-BREAK!!!

Leofric's Heit stabbed Queen Orc's body and made a big hole. But Leofric also lost his right hand. He chooses to avoid Queen Orc's spit which almost hits his face.

"HIS HIGHNESS!!!" Mathias yelled.

Queen Orc fell limply with a hole in her body. She couldn't live any longer.

Behind Leofric's party, the soldiers arrived and brought two new figures. Lavinia and Allen.

Seeing his mother fall, Allen immediately ran towards Queen Orc.

"MOOTHEEER!!!!"

Leofric looked at the effect of Queen Orc's saliva. There was… no effect whatsoever from the spitting.

"I'm so stupid, I didn't expect that thing could fool me."
