I Became the Demon King of Lust

Chapter 277: Raid dungeon (69)

There was a silence that lingered in the air after the pharaoh mummy was cut down.

The main thing that everyone was staring at was not the pharaoh mummy, but me.

There was a clear look of doubt that was in their eyes as they stared at me, making it very clear what they were thinking.

Seeds of doubt had already been sown in their minds and now they were taking root and growing.

If I didn't do something soon, then it would only get worse.

But if I said anything…wouldn't that make me more suspicious?

In the end, I was just glad that Tie Gang said something.

"Alright, that's that. That's the dungeon boss taken care of, so we should be able to leave the dungeon now."

All of them suddenly looked at Tie Gang when they heard this with uncertain looks in their eyes, but they accepted what he said in the end.

However, they didn't forget to give me one last look before moving around the room to find the exit.

Tie Gang made sure that all of them had headed off to find the exit before coming over to me to ask, "You alright?"

I looked at him and slowly gave a nod, though I could still see the doubt in his eyes.

Even he wasn't unaffected by the words that had been said.

He saw the look on my face as well and said with a smile, "For now, let's go home. Once we're back, we'll get you checked out and see if they can find anything strange about you."

He patted me on the shoulder before saying, "I'm sure that it's all a misunderstanding."

Though I could hear that slight trace of doubt in his voice.

For now, this was all that we could do, so I just gave a nod.

But I turned to look at the corpse of the pharaoh mummy on the ground and asked, "What do you want to do with this thing?"

Tie Gang was surprised to hear this question and he looked down at the pharaoh mummy corpse on the ground.

After staring at it for a bit, he realized what was wrong.

"Eh? Why isn't it disappearing and dropping the loot? The loot from this dungeon boss was one of the things that our guild was commissioned to get this time…Does that mean we have to do this entire dungeon again if it doesn't drop?" Tie Gang said in a genuinely surprised voice.

But when everyone else heard this, they couldn't help trembling.

Again?

He wanted to do this raid dungeon again?

Even if they were dragged back in, they didn't want to do it again.

After a long silence where everyone held their breaths and looked at Tie Gang, he finally said, "Alright, for now, let's just bring this thing back and see what they say. This is supposed to be the vessel of a demon king, right? Perhaps that should give us an excuse for not getting the drop."

Everyone let out a sigh of relief when they heard this, but there was still a trace of worry in their hearts.

If the guild really didn't accept it, then they would have to do this raid dungeon again…

They really didn't want to do all of this again.

But I knew that Tie Gang was just teasing them and raising their spirits.

After all, this was a very important discovery. It far surpassed any request for items, so there was no way that we would be forced to go into this raid dungeon again.

In fact, it was very likely that this raid dungeon would be closed by the Awakener Association and they would do some kind of investigation on what happened.

It was impossible that they would allow us to raid it again before they found what had changed about this raid dungeon.

So Tie Gang's words didn't mean anything.

It didn't take long for them to find the exit portal for this dungeon, it was right behind the throne that the pharaoh mummy had been sitting on.

The strange thing was that the throne hadn't been damaged at all even though I had used a bomb on it.

It was unknown what kind of material this throne was made of, but it really was hard that even a bomb wasn't able to do anything to it.

This was definitely something that we would have liked to bring back, but if we can't even destroy it with bombs, how were we supposed to bring it back?

Perhaps if Tie Gang went all out against this throne, he might be able to chip it. But was it really worth it to damage his weapon to bring back this throne of unknown origin?

This throne would always be here, so anyone could research it if they wanted to.

For now, the more important thing was to bring back the corpses of both the mummy leader and the pharaoh mummy.

But we couldn't just leave right away after finding the exit portal.

The first thing that we had to do was gather all the people that had been left behind on the various floors.

We had left people behind to maintain the camps that we had set up, so we had to get them up here to the exit so we could leave together.

It was a good thing that the war between the mummy leader and the pharaoh mummy had brought most of the monsters up to the third floor where they had been wiped out.

The few monsters that were left were easily wiped out by the Awakeners and the path was cleared for them to reach the dungeon boss room.

Though when they arrived, it was clear that they were looking at me.

Tie Gang narrowed his eyes a bit as he looked at the Awakeners who had been sent to escort these members up.

Not a single one of them dared to meet his gaze in the end.

So Tie Gang just gave a sigh and said, "Let's get out of here then."

With that, our attack on the raid dungeon was over.
