An hour later, around noontime...
--- Kagruu Plains ---
"I did not expect to be back here again..." Roasted Boar said to himself while he looked around the place. The reason why he was here was because of the Slime Royalty dungeon.
"Jay said that this dungeon is located in a small forest somewhere..." Not wanting to waste any more time since time was not enough, Roasted Boar immediately started to look for the place.
...
5 minutes later...
"Hey, do you know where the forest area in this place is?" Roasted Boar asked a random newbie grinding some slimes.
"Its on the western area of the plains." Just as this newbie was going to ask something, Roasted Boar suddenly disappeared.
"Woah. I did not know people can move like that." The newbie player thought to himself before going back to his own business.
...
5 minutes later...
"So this is the place. But it looks like this is going to get very complicated..." Roasted Boar said as he looked at the crowd of players waiting outside the entrance of the Slime Royalty dungeon.
"Hey, you're new here aren't you?" A petite girl with short pink hair approached Roasted Boar, curious on how he found this place. If Jay was here, he will probably recognize this young girl since he met her during his Beast Tamer class trial before.
"I guess so. But anyways, is anyone currently inside the dungeon?" Roasted Boar immediately asked.
"Not at the moment. We are still recruiting fellow players from the nearby town to help us clear the dungeon." The young girl said and sighed. Just as she was going to ask who Roasted Boar was and if he wanted to join them, the cave-like entrance of the dungeon suddenly flashed with a white light.
"Sister Lin! Someone just entered the dungeon!" A player wearing a grayish leather armor shouted as he approached the pink-haired girl.
"WHAT?! Who is it?!!"
"I don't know. The only thing we saw was a blur of a guy with black long hair wearing some blue robes." The player said with a confused look on his face.
"Him?!" Of course, after he described how Roasted Boar looked, Linlin, the pink haired girl realized that the one who entered was actually the guy she was just talking to.
"But, but, but... he was just right here next to me!"
...
--- Slime Royalty Paradise Dungeon --
[Roasted Boar entered Level 4 Dungeon - Slime Royalty's Paradise]
[Please select Dungeon Difficulty: Normal/Hard/Extreme]
"Jay told us that the loot we get after crashing the dungeons or towers we go to will be an item with an epic rating or higher." Roasted Boar thought to himself before choosing the Normal difficulty for now.
The moment he did, hundreds of slimes of varying colors got spawned in the garden-looking area he was in. Not sure if he should just blast everything or needed to activate something, Roasted Boar activated his guild emblem and asked Jay.
"Just ignore the slimes and go to the central area of the garden and touch the slime statue. The loot or a random boss will get spawned after that. If you collect the loot or defeat the boss, the dungeon will be cleared."
After listening to Jay's words, Roasted Boar used a spell called 'Flutterwings.' This spell was a spell he created. It was a 5th tier spell of the wind element that created very tiny gusts of wind on his back that will push him towards a certain direction. The force from the push created by these gusts of wind is so strong that when others look at him, it looks as if he is teleporting short distances.
...
Outside the dungeon...
It has been three minutes since Roasted Boar entered the dungeon. Just as the crowd of players were wondering what happened to him and what was wrong with him, the entrance of the dungeon suddenly flashed with a white light and Roasted Boar was teleported out of the dungeon.
Roasted Boar was about to enter again since he still needed to complete the hard and extreme difficulty of the dungeon. Just as he was about to do so, the crowd of players blocked him and Linlin, the pink haired girl from earlier shouted.
"What is wrong with you!? Do you want to die?" Linlin shouted this out of concern, since she thought Roasted Boar was another newbie player. Even though she knew that Roasted Boar had some kind of teleportation item with him, probably a magic scroll, she was worried.
"Step aside. I do not have time to waste with you newbies." Roasted Boar said nonchalantly but they still blocked the entrance of the dungeon.
"SCRAM!" Roasted Boar shouted furiously and released a terrifying aura. The aura of a Tier 3 Grand Sorcerer.
The newbie players including Linlin was so terrified that they all scrammed to the side. Some even pissed their pants and dropped on their knees.
"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry..." Linlin said while tears flowed out from her face. She did not know where the hell did Roasted Boar come from and just wanted to stay away from him. And while she kept shuddering from fear, she suddenly remembered a very painful experience she had to go through, when she and her two friends died when they attempted to clear the dungeon.
Seeing the fear they felt towards him, Roasted Boar retracted his aura and apologized.
"Sorry for that. But I just do not have time to waste." Roasted Boar said before taking out the loot he got from the normal difficulty of the dungeon. The loot was just useless to him; 3000 copper coins, some common items, small potions, and some trash equipment.
"You can have the loot of the dungeon. I just want a certain item and the rest does not interest me."
After giving the loot, he immediately went back inside the dungeon.
...
Inside the Slime Royalty Paradise dungeon...
"I feel bad about scaring those newbies. It just feels weird. I was also a newbie once before... I wonder if I should recruit them since we are building our own kingdom anyways? An increase in manpower is always needed in building a kingdom in my opinion..." Roasted Boar said to himself at the same time he selected the hard difficulty of the dungeon.
To clear out his thoughts, he asked Jay through his guild emblem.
"Sure, why not? The ratmen that recently joined us have started building some establishments and roads that connects the places controlled by our guild. I believe they will be happy if they learn that some people will help them with it."
After listening to Jay, Roasted Boar immediately used Flutterwings again and proceeded to the central area of the garden while ignoring all of the slimes.
The moment he arrived at the central area, he encountered a weaker version of the boss.
-------------------------------------------
[Slime Royalty (Dungeon Boss) - Lord]
Health: 400,000/400,000 (Base Health)
Slime King Health: 200,000/200,000
Slime Queen Health: 200,000/200,000
Description: A group of gigantic slimes that decided to form a hierarchy and create their own Slime Kingdom. These two slimes decided to go out on a stroll and you just had to encounter them.
-------------------------------------------------
"Jay told me that there were supposed to be five of them that makes up the Slime Royalty. If it's just these two..." Roasted Boar did not even hesitate and unleashed a Tier 6 spell called 'Phoenix Dive.' This spell allows the caster to summon a phoenix that flies high into the air before diving down and exploding into a fiery hell that will burn everything in a large area. As for the target directly hit by the spell, the target will suffer with a 2 second stun and Burnout. Burnout was a debuff that makes anything vulnerable against fire-type spells.
The spell was just too strong for this low-leveled lord ranked boss that it got instantly defeated. After that, some copper and silver coins flowed out of the slime statue behind it and a small wooden chest.
Roasted Boar immediately opened the chest and grabbed everything. But the items he got from the wooden chest was still not useful to him. It was just a large magicka potion.
...
Outside the dungeon...
"Linlin, where is that guy you told us about?" A middle aged guy wearing a fitted gray robe and a green cloak asked while the newbie players looked at him respectfully. He also had a bald head and a grayish goatee.
"Guild master, he is currently attempting the hard difficulty of the dungeon." Linlin said while feeling a bit of fear. She was not sure who should she fear the most, was it her guild master in front of her or Roasted Boar.
Just as the middle-aged guy was about to say something, the two black stone pillars near the entrance of the dungeon cracked and a bright light appeared from the dungeon's entrance.
"Impossible! It has only been three minutes!" One of the newbie players shouted.
...
"Alright. Last one before I proceed to the next newbie dungeon." Roasted Boar thought to himself before getting blocked by someone again. It was the middle-aged guy who blocked him this time.
"Friend, why don't we talk for a bit?"
Unlike six minutes ago when Roasted Boar was not in the mood, since he wanted to recruit these newbies anyways, he decided to hear the middle-aged man out.
"Sure, just hurry it up." Roasted Boar said nonchalantly.
"My name is Julin, a Tier 4 Warrior. I just wanted to know if you can help us out? Probably let us join you in clearing the dungeon perhaps?" Julin, the middle-aged man said while he faked a smile since he was not sure if he could trust Roasted Boar or not.
"Sure. But first of all..." Roasted Boar paused for a bit before speaking loudly and confidently, "Swear loyalty to me and be part of my guild, Golden Phoenix!"
The newbie players and Linlin were shocked with what they heard and knew that Roasted Boar was some kind of powerhouse since they've experienced his power, they still remembered that terrifying aura and they all knew that if they join him, there is a chance that they will also become that strong one day.
But of course, all of them were currently part of a guild called 'Grassy Fields,' with Julin being their guild master. They still remembered how ruthless and cunning Julin was due to an incident before and was afraid of going against him.
"How audacious! You think you can just recruit my people like that?!" Julin shouted furiously as he took out an iron buckler and a steel sword from his storage ring.
"Idiot." Roasted Boar thought to himself as he looked at Julin. He also saw that the newbie players at the sides, including Linlin, had some kind of hatred and fear towards Julin. Since that was the case, Roasted Boar grinned evilly before grabbing Julin by his neck. Of course, due to the gap in their power, Julin was in a pitiful state right now.
"Let. me. go." Julin tried his best to break free from Roasted Boar's grasp and felt that he will die from suffocation if this continues.
"Golden Phoenix does not need idiots like you. Die!" Roasted Boar said before burning Julin to a crisp using a low-tiered fire spell.
...
"Julin died just like that?!" The newbie players were in awe and was terrified of Roasted Boar's powers by now. But when they remembered what he said and wanted them to join his guild...
"My lord, please let us join your guild. We will promise to do our best!" Linlin immediately said this loudly as she knelt down together with the 40 other newbie players.
"Good. Just let me finish up this dungeon before I tell you where the guild hall is and your first assignment." After saying this, Roasted Boar gave the loot he got from the hard difficulty of the dungeon to Linlin and immediately returned to the dungeon.
...
Inside the Slime Royalty Paradise dungeon...
[Warning! Extreme mode activated!]
[Warning! Extreme mode activated!]
[Warning! Extreme mode activated!]
A mysterious voice sounded in Roasted Boar's head telling him that he just activated the extreme difficulty of the dungeon.
Unlike before where hundreds of slimes suddenly spawned in the garden-looking dungeon, Roasted Boar was immediately teleported to the central area of the dungeon.
In front of him was the complete version of the Slime Royalty, and the slime statue also turned into a gigantic green blob.
-------------------------------------------
[Slime Royalty (Dungeon Boss) - Lord]
Health: 1,200,000/1,200,000 (Base Health)
Slime King Health: 200,000/200,000

-------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------
[Squishy Blob (Dungeon Boss) - Special Elite]
Health: ???
Description: A green sticky blob that protects the slime royalty.
----------------------------------------------
The moment the information of these monsters popped out on Roasted Boar's mind, he got a bit serious since the Squishy Blob was a little bit weird.
"If my guess is right, every move I make will be hindered by that Squishy Blob thingy. If I attack the Slime Royalty, it will protect it. If I run away, it will slow me down. If I start casting spells, it will distract me..." Roasted Boar thought to himself. But even if this was the case, what could a low-leveled boss monster do to him, a tier 3 Grand Sorcerer.
'Volcanic Desolation!'
This spell was one of Roasted Boar's strongest spells that was around the 8th tier. He just managed to create this spell due to some luck when he was still back at the Golden Moon Academy. He never once tried it out since the area there was unsuitable for this spell.
Volcanic Desolation turns a very large area into a fiery hell. The ground will start burning up and magma bursting from it, random sized fireballs randomly appearing everywhere, and strong earthquakes that occurred at a random time. The spell lasts for 30 seconds, and when the duration was up, pillars of flame will surround the caster of the spell. The caster was also invulnerable to the spell and it cannot backfire on him.
"So this is why Elder Magnus named the spell as such..." Roasted Boar thought to himself as he watched the view. The Squishy Blob kept on moving around trying to protect the Slime Royalty from the fireballs and the magma coming from the ground, but even with its fast speed due to it having no actual form, it was still not enough.
After a few seconds of getting hit repeatedly by some large fireballs and some magma from the ground, the Slime Royalty got finished and died just like that. Not even having a chance to retaliate.
'Cancel'
Roasted Boar cancelled out the spell since the Slime Royalty was already dead. As for the Squishy Blob, it suddenly became smaller and smaller until it became the size of an egg.
Seeing that besides the hundreds of silver coins coming out from the center of the dungeon, the only thing left was the Squishy Blob, Roasted Boar grabbed it and stored everything else.
...
~Rumble, rumble...
Rumbling sounds came from the entrance of the dungeon just at the moment Roasted Boar was teleported out. After a few seconds later, the dungeon's entrance collapsed.
"Dungeon crashing complete." Roasted Boar thought to himself and remembered that the newbie players were waiting for him.
"Everyone. Just wait here for a while and someone from the guild will pick you up." Roasted Boar said and contacted Heda, telling her to pick up these newbies and the loot he got.
"How many are there? If there are less than a hundred, then my clone will be enough."
"Just around 40 or something. They also have the loot from the Slime Royalty dungeon." Roasted Boar said before keeping his guild emblem and handing over the loot including the Squishy Blob over to Linlin.
"Just wait for a couple of minutes and someone will pick you up. You guys can also have this." Roasted Boar handed over the Golden Phoenix's guild emblems to the newbie players.
"Don't you dare run away. I can track you all down the moment you touched the emblem." Roasted Boar said before leaving the place and heading to the next newbie dungeon that was also located in Kagruu Plains.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

Not sure if he should just blast everything or needed to activate something, Roasted Boar activated his guild emblem and asked Jay."Just ignore the slimes and go to the central area of the garden and touch the slime statue. The loot or a random boss will get spawned after that. If you collect the loot or defeat the boss, the dungeon will be cleared."After listening to Jay's words, Roasted Boar used a spell called 'Flutterwings.' This spell was a spell he created. It was a 5th tier spell of the wind element that created very tiny gusts of wind on his back that will push him towards a certain direction. The force from the push created by these gusts of wind is so strong that when others look at him, it looks as if he is teleporting short distances....Outside the dungeon...It has been three minutes since Roasted Boar entered the dungeon. Just as the crowd of players were wondering what happened to him and what was wrong with him, the entrance of the dungeon suddenly flashed with a white light and Roasted Boar was teleported out of the dungeon.Roasted Boar was about to enter again since he still needed to complete the hard and extreme difficulty of the dungeon. Just as he was about to do so, the crowd of players blocked him and Linlin, the pink haired girl from earlier shouted."What is wrong with you!? Do you want to die?" Linlin shouted this out of concern, since she thought Roasted Boar was another newbie player. Even though she knew that Roasted Boar had some kind of teleportation item with him, probably a magic scroll, she was worried."Step aside. I do not have time to waste with you newbies." Roasted Boar said nonchalantly but they still blocked the entrance of the dungeon."SCRAM!" Roasted Boar shouted furiously and released a terrifying aura. The aura of a Tier 3 Grand Sorcerer.The newbie players including Linlin was so terrified that they all scrammed to the side. Some even pissed their pants and dropped on their knees."I'm sorry. I'm so sorry..." Linlin said while tears flowed out from her face. She did not know where the hell did Roasted Boar come from and just wanted to stay away from him. And while she kept shuddering from fear, she suddenly remembered a very painful experience she had to go through, when she and her two friends died when they attempted to clear the dungeon.Seeing the fear they felt towards him, Roasted Boar retracted his aura and apologized."Sorry for that. But I just do not have time to waste." Roasted Boar said before taking out the loot he got from the normal difficulty of the dungeon. The loot was just useless to him; 3000 copper coins, some common items, small potions, and some trash equipment."You can have the loot of the dungeon. I just want a certain item and the rest does not interest me."After giving the loot, he immediately went back inside the dungeon....Inside the Slime Royalty Paradise dungeon..."I feel bad about scaring those newbies. It just feels weird. I was also a newbie once before... I wonder if I should recruit them since we are building our own kingdom anyways? An increase in manpower is always needed in building a kingdom in my opinion..." Roasted Boar said to himself at the same time he selected the hard difficulty of the dungeon.To clear out his thoughts, he asked Jay through his guild emblem."Sure, why not? The ratmen that recently joined us have started building some establishments and roads that connects the places controlled by our guild. I believe they will be happy if they learn that some people will help them with it."After listening to Jay, Roasted Boar immediately used Flutterwings again and proceeded to the central area of the garden while ignoring all of the slimes.The moment he arrived at the central area, he encountered a weaker version of the boss.-------------------------------------------Slime Royalty Dungeon Boss - LordHealth: 400,000/400,000 Base HealthSlime King Health: 200,000/200,000Slime Queen Health: 200,000/200,000Description: A group of gigantic slimes that decided to form a hierarchy and create their own Slime Kingdom. These two slimes decided to go out on a stroll and you just had to encounter them.-------------------------------------------------"Jay told me that there were supposed to be five of them that makes up the Slime Royalty. If it's just these two..." Roasted Boar did not even hesitate and unleashed a Tier 6 spell called 'Phoenix Dive.' This spell allows the caster to summon a phoenix that flies high into the air before diving down and exploding into a fiery hell that will burn everything in a large area. As for the target directly hit by the spell, the target will suffer with a 2 second stun and Burnout. Burnout was a debuff that makes anything vulnerable against fire-type spells.The spell was just too strong for this low-leveled lord ranked boss that it got instantly defeated. After that, some copper and silver coins flowed out of the slime statue behind it and a small wooden chest.Roasted Boar immediately opened the chest and grabbed everything. But the items he got from the wooden chest was still not useful to him. It was just a large magicka potion....Outside the dungeon..."Linlin, where is that guy you told us about?" A middle aged guy wearing a fitted gray robe and a green cloak asked while the newbie players looked at him respectfully. He also had a bald head and a grayish goatee."Guild master, he is currently attempting the hard difficulty of the dungeon." Linlin said while feeling a bit of fear. She was not sure who should she fear the most, was it her guild master in front of her or Roasted Boar.Just as the middle-aged guy was about to say something, the two black stone pillars near the entrance of the dungeon cracked and a bright light appeared from the dungeon's entrance."Impossible! It has only been three minutes!" One of the newbie players shouted...."Alright. Last one before I proceed to the next newbie dungeon." Roasted Boar thought to himself before getting blocked by someone again. It was the middle-aged guy who blocked him this time."Friend, why don't we talk for a bit?"Unlike six minutes ago when Roasted Boar was not in the mood, since he wanted to recruit these newbies anyways, he decided to hear the middle-aged man out."Sure, just hurry it up." Roasted Boar said nonchalantly."My name is Julin, a Tier 4 Warrior. I just wanted to know if you can help us out? Probably let us join you in clearing the dungeon perhaps?" Julin, the middle-aged man said while he faked a smile since he was not sure if he could trust Roasted Boar or not."Sure. But first of all..." Roasted Boar paused for a bit before speaking loudly and confidently, "Swear loyalty to me and be part of my guild, Golden Phoenix!"The newbie players and Linlin were shocked with what they heard and knew that Roasted Boar was some kind of powerhouse since they've experienced his power, they still remembered that terrifying aura and they all knew that if they join him, there is a chance that they will also become that strong one day.But of course, all of them were currently part of a guild called 'Grassy Fields,' with Julin being their guild master. They still remembered how ruthless and cunning Julin was due to an incident before and was afraid of going against him."How audacious! You think you can just recruit my people like that?!" Julin shouted furiously as he took out an iron buckler and a steel sword from his storage ring."Idiot." Roasted Boar thought to himself as he looked at Julin. He also saw that the newbie players at the sides, including Linlin, had some kind of hatred and fear towards Julin. Since that was the case, Roasted Boar grinned evilly before grabbing Julin by his neck. Of course, due to the gap in their power, Julin was in a pitiful state right now."Let. me. go." Julin tried his best to break free from Roasted Boar's grasp and felt that he will die from suffocation if this continues."Golden Phoenix does not need idiots like you. Die!" Roasted Boar said before burning Julin to a crisp using a low-tiered fire spell...."Julin died just like that?!" The newbie players were in awe and was terrified of Roasted Boar's powers by now. But when they remembered what he said and wanted them to join his guild..."My lord, please let us join your guild. We will promise to do our best!" Linlin immediately said this loudly as she knelt down together with the 40 other newbie players."Good. Just let me finish up this dungeon before I tell you where the guild hall is and your first assignment." After saying this, Roasted Boar gave the loot he got from the hard difficulty of the dungeon to Linlin and immediately returned to the dungeon....Inside the Slime Royalty Paradise dungeon...Warning! Extreme mode activated!Warning! Extreme mode activated!Warning! Extreme mode activated!A mysterious voice sounded in Roasted Boar's head telling him that he just activated the extreme difficulty of the dungeon.Unlike before where hundreds of slimes suddenly spawned in the garden-looking dungeon, Roasted Boar was immediately teleported to the central area of the dungeon.In front of him was the complete version of the Slime Royalty, and the slime statue also turned into a gigantic green blob.-------------------------------------------Slime Royalty Dungeon Boss - LordHealth: 1,200,000/1,200,000 Base HealthSlime King Health: 200,000/200,000Slime Queen Health: 200,000/200,000Slime Princess Health: 400,000/400,000Slime Prince Health: 300,000/300,000Slime Babies' Health: 100,000/100,000Description: A group of gigantic slimes that decided to form a hierarchy and create their own Slime Kingdom.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Squishy Blob Dungeon Boss - Special EliteHealth: ???Description: A green sticky blob that protects the slime royalty.----------------------------------------------The moment the information of these monsters popped out on Roasted Boar's mind, he got a bit serious since the Squishy Blob was a little bit weird."If my guess is right, every move I make will be hindered by that Squishy Blob thingy. If I attack the Slime Royalty, it will protect it. If I run away, it will slow me down. If I start casting spells, it will distract me..." Roasted Boar thought to himself. But even if this was the case, what could a low-leveled boss monster do to him, a tier 3 Grand Sorcerer.'Volcanic Desolation!'This spell was one of Roasted Boar's strongest spells that was around the 8th tier. He just managed to create this spell due to some luck when he was still back at the Golden Moon Academy. He never once tried it out since the area there was unsuitable for this spell.Volcanic Desolation turns a very large area into a fiery hell. The ground will start burning up and magma bursting from it, random sized fireballs randomly appearing everywhere, and strong earthquakes that occurred at a random time. The spell lasts for 30 seconds, and when the duration was up, pillars of flame will surround the caster of the spell. The caster was also invulnerable to the spell and it cannot backfire on him."So this is why Elder Magnus named the spell as such..." Roasted Boar thought to himself as he watched the view. The Squishy Blob kept on moving around trying to protect the Slime Royalty from the fireballs and the magma coming from the ground, but even with its fast speed due to it having no actual form, it was still not enough.After a few seconds of getting hit repeatedly by some large fireballs and some magma from the ground, the Slime Royalty got finished and died just like that. Not even having a chance to retaliate.'Cancel'Roasted Boar cancelled out the spell since the Slime Royalty was already dead. As for the Squishy Blob, it suddenly became smaller and smaller until it became the size of an egg.Seeing that besides the hundreds of silver coins coming out from the center of the dungeon, the only thing left was the Squishy Blob, Roasted Boar grabbed it and stored everything else....~Rumble, rumble...Rumbling sounds came from the entrance of the dungeon just at the moment Roasted Boar was teleported out. After a few seconds later, the dungeon's entrance collapsed."Dungeon crashing complete." Roasted Boar thought to himself and remembered that the newbie players were waiting for him."Everyone. Just wait here for a while and someone from the guild will pick you up." Roasted Boar said and contacted Heda, telling her to pick up these newbies and the loot he got."How many are there? If there are less than a hundred, then my clone will be enough.""Just around 40 or something. They also have the loot from the Slime Royalty dungeon." Roasted Boar said before keeping his guild emblem and handing over the loot including the Squishy Blob over to Linlin."Just wait for a couple of minutes and someone will pick you up. You guys can also have this." Roasted Boar handed over the Golden Phoenix's guild emblems to the newbie players."Don't you dare run away. I can track you all down the moment you touched the emblem." Roasted Boar said before leaving the place and heading to the next newbie dungeon that was also located in Kagruu Plains.
