BXBX NOVEL Chapter 558 Dungeon Clear
-----
Once the Red Orc Druid King perished by the might of Ruby, the rest of the Red Orcs were sent into panic. Especially because the buffs that their leader had conjured over them were turned off. Their power quickly lowered and the rest of my Party, Summons, and the few of Saphira\'s Undead made a quick end to their miserable lives.
Because I jumped straight towards the boss, we ended the whole floor in less than half an hour, roughly twenty minutes. The Grimoire quickly gave a dinging sound as it showed me the overall battle results.
Ding!

[The Tamed Monster [Ruby] can now Evolve.]
[To Evolve a Tamed Monster, merely will it while looking at it.]
Good. Not only I got four levels out of this floor, but Ruby even reached max level, that\'s nice. With this Ruby can finally evolve. Also Blood is getting closer to Level 40, his max level too, only three levels left.
For now, however, I should prepare Ruby\'s evolution for tonight. The last material I need should arrive soon at my shop\'s doorsteps, as I\'ve bought it from a special seller of this city\'s underworld black market.
Of course, if I want the rarest materials at prices I can afford, the Black Market is the only place I can go to. And well, if they dare scam me I\'ll go kick their asses later anyways, and of course, get some compensation while I am at it.
"[Dismantle] [Store]"
As everyone was resting after the exhausting battle, I quickly began to dismantle everything using my Grimoire\'s powers and then storing it into the Inventory. This included Saphira\'s former undead friends. Her necromancy abilities didn\'t allowed her to keep them forever with her, she could only raise the Undead temporarily, and they stank too, so I wasn\'t going to carry moving corpses in my shadows.
Another thing to note is that her powers are vastly different than those of the Necromancer we fought years ago, the one battle where Ellergest died. That man\'s powers were completely in another level and were mostly due to him having been born with a powerful Necromancer Talent that was Five Stars, if I am not mistaken.
Naturally, his Skills and the Spirits he had were very powerful compared to Saphira, who\'s merely a spirit I summoned around a week and a half ago. She might one day develop such an advanced alchemy as the old Necromancer, but for now her limit was controlling 50 corpses at the same time by possessing them using her phantasmal powers. If she kept this up forever she would end up too exhausted and draining away all my MP at the same time.
Ding!
[You\'ve stored [Red Orc\'s Hard Leather Skin] x78, [Red Orc\'s Blazing Eyes] x100, [Red Orc\'s Hard Meat and Bones] x130, [Red Orc\'s Internal Organs] x160, [Red Orc\'s Blazing Muscles] x82, [Red Orc Druid King\'s Magic Brain] x1, [Druid\'s Crystalized Magic Heart] x1, [Mana Imbued Red Orc\'s Blood] x25, [Spirit Orb (E)] x109, [Spirit Orb (D)] x1 inside your [Inventory]!]
"Good, this is a lot of materials…" I smiled evilly at the potential we could get from this.
"Blake don\'t forget that those materials should be ours as well, we\'re dividing them, we all cooperated on this!" Erdrich said, noticing my greedy eyes.
"Hey why do you have to say it like that? Blake\'s not untrustworthy." Said Chris.
"Yeah but I can\'t feel ease when he looks at the materials with those greedy eyes…" Erdrich sighed.
"Hahah, don\'t worry. He\'s someone fair." Eric said.
"Yeah, I know everyone\'s gathering their own capital, so we\'ll divide the materials, though I\'ll keep the materials from the bosses I\'ve fought, if that\'s okay by you." I said while nodding.
Of course, the materials I had will then be divided by 8, so what I\'ll end up with will be way less. After all everyone fought and participated in the fight, there wasn\'t anybody that didn\'t killed a lot of monsters. Even the timid Alberta put down a lot of them as she leveled up.
"Yeah that\'s fine." Eric said. "Do you have any idea what you want to use them for?"
"More or less, I\'ll use them to make some interesting potions, and perhaps a few other pieces of equipment." I said while thinking.
I already had in mind a lot of accessories I wanted to make to improve my stats even further. I already had several pieces of equipment boosting my stats, but accessories such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and so on could be equipped in large quantities and give nice stat boosts, equipping as many as I can is the way to go.
"Come on you guys are too gloomy! Let\'s cheer up and go eat something! Gaah! I am so hungry!" Erika quickly stirred things up, rushing to my side while being half-covered on orc\'s blood, and she hugged me just like that.
"Geez do you have to be so careless?" I sighed, quickly using Blood Magic to absorb the blood covering her and then using some [Clean] Spell Conjurations to clean her. "Done, all clean."
"Phew… It felt like I was going to die at any moment here, so many giant Orcs… I can\'t believe we made it through." Sighed Alberta. "It would had been way harder without Blake\'s Familiars though."
"Yeah, I guess you\'re right-" Eric said, although the sound of cracking glass suddenly interrupted his words.
Crack… crack…!
CRAAASH!
And then, space itself shattered behind us, as a portal opened, and from within, an ominous and demonic presence began to emerge.
