What's Next?
Demons
Innu, Luna, and I arrive at the park. I use Mana Sense to find the Dungeon. Fortunately, it's in a hard-to-see spot hidden by some trees. However, it's not hidden enough for Innu and Luna to change into their armor. We wait until no one's looking before I cast Enter Dungeon and take the girls in. We appear in a forest and I add them to the party. I look around but don't see anything, and the girls get changed quickly. We start walking around once they're changed. As we walk, the trees start becoming more space. We eventually find ourselves in front of a large cave.
"Should we go in?" Luna asks as we look at the cave from twenty feet away. The mouth of the cave is at least ten feet wide. It's at the bottom of a cliff, with no way up.
"Yeah, I'm sure the monsters are in there." I say, stepping forward.
"Wait! I won't be able to use Gigantomakia's ability in there. The cave's too small and even if I could cut through the cave walls, I'd probably cause it to collapse." Innu warns,
"Okay, let's keep our guards up. Oh, and Luna. I want you to keep an eye on our backs. I want us to be able to retreat if we need to." I say and she nods. We walk into the cave and start exploring. There are torches, lit with a red flame, lining the walls. They keep the cave bright enough to see clearly. The flames are clearly magical, lighting the place up far better than regular torches. As we turn a corner, I bump into two monsters. They're small, about as tall as my waist. Each has red skin and pointy ears, similar to an Elfs but a little shorter. They have wide mouths and sharp teeth. They wear loincloths and hold wooden clubs. The one I bumped into stumbles back as I Observe it.
Imp Lvl 50, Class: Minion, Title: Lesser-Demon, RP: -250, Hearts: 0, Weak: Holy
HP: 2500/2500 MP: 3000/3000
As I Observe them, Innu and Luna attack. Innu brings her blade down on one, who raises his club to block. She easily cuts through it and down into its shoulder.

At the same time, Innu charges the one I bumped into. She grabs its club midair and cuts along its belly.

The two Imps fall to the ground dead. Innu and Luna don't move and just keep staring at them.
"They're already dead?" Luna asks, disappointed.
"Yep. You two have gotten a lot stronger." I say and she sighs.
"That's good, but I was hoping for a challenge." Innu replies causing me to chuckle.
"Well listen to this then. Observe showed me that the Imps you just killed were Minions. So whatever their master is, should be much stronger." I tell them, causing them to get excited again. I guess since this was a natural Dungeon, my powers didn't increase their levels. But I shouldn't tell them that, they'll want me to create a stronger one when we get home. I think as we start walking through the cave. The cave turns out to be a maze. The only reason we don't get lost is because of my Map Skill. However, unlike other Dungeons, it doesn't show me the unexplored areas. So I can see where we came from, but I don't know where the tunnel in front of us leads. We walk around, exploring every tunnel we come across. We slay 11 more Imps before we find something. The Imps gave me 33,000 Exp, 14,564$, 5 Rare, and 6 Common drops. As we reach the end of the tunnel we come to a dead end. At first, it looks like the others we've come across. However, my Map still shows there's more to go on the other end. In fact, it doesn't even show the wall in front of us at all. I walk up to the wall as the girls turn around.
"Alpha, what are you doing?" Luna asks me.
"I think this wall is fake." I reply while reaching my hand out to touch it. My hand passes right through the wall.
"Ohhhh! How'd you know that was fake?" Innu asks excitedly, running over and putting her hand through too.
"It was my Map Skill. It doesn't show this wall here." I reply before walking through it. On the other side we're confronted with a shocking sight. The room is very different from the cave. The walls and floor are white, with blue torches on the walls. They're smooth and incredibly clean, I don't see any dirt or anything like the cave had. There are three chests in front of us, similar to the ones from the Ruins. These chests are all shut and locked, but there's a pile of shiny gold surrounding them. In front of these chests and gold, is a grand-looking bed. It has red sheets and a gold-colored blanket. It has four wooden pillars in each corner and red curtains. The curtains are see-through, and I see a figure in the bed. It stirs, hearing or sensing us enter. It slowly gets up and spreads two large demonic wings behind it. It turns to us as it stands, and I see it has pure red eyes. It has no iris, or the iris is red. It has grey skin and the skin from its elbows down is black. It has long sharp claws instead of fingers. It steps back as I Observe it and get ready to fight.
Greater Demon Lvl 95, Class: Master, Title: Demonic Mage, RP: -250, Hearts: 0, Weak: Holy
HP: 9000/9000 MP: 10000/10000
I tell the girls what I read before the Demon starts looking around. It looks straight up and extends its wings. I look to where it is and notice a small hole in the roof.
"It's going to flee!" Innu shouts while running forward. The Demon takes off Luna and I start running. I cast Flame Kings Terrain and the room gets engulfed in red flames. The girls step back, not sure if the flames would hurt them. They don't, and we look at the Demon. It's trying to fly into the hole, but it's hitting an invisible wall a few feet before it. It turns back, realizing my flames are keeping it trapped. It lunges for me, and I step back to dodge. It lands, slamming its hand into the ground. I bring my blade down on its shoulder before it jumps back.
-3,139 Dmg
Blood sprays from its wound and it looks around. It lunges for Luna, using its wings for extra momentum. Luna raises her arm and casts Ancient Beast Slash. She sends five dark brown slashes through the air, and they all hit the Demon head-on. It tried to dodge, but it was moving too fast to react in time.
