Chapter Size: 2000 Words.]Third Person POV27 Floor, Dungeon.

  ...

  ...

  In a hidden room within Orario, an old man sitting on a throne suddenly felt something, something ing from the dungeon.

  "This... The dungeon activated that thing, how this happen?" He asked himself and looked forward.

  "Fels, there's an emergency!"

  Fels materialized from his invisibility.

  "Ouranos-Sama."

  "Go to the Ganesha Familia, a Juggernaut has appeared in the deep floors. The floors below Rivira must be closed immediately."

  "A Juggernaut, that's terrible after so many years... I'm on my way." He left immediately.

  Meanwhile, in the deep floors.

  "16 million points! Hahaha! Adding to the ones I accumuted before, I'm ready to create a great repertoire of spells for myself!" Lucius couldn't help but celebrate!

  "How strange, has this pce always had this kind of atmosphere?" Lucius suddenly murmured, looking forward.

  Approag the exit of the Colosseum, Lucius felt a subtle ge in the air. There was a weight, a pressure that wasn't present before. His instincts, honed by tless battles, alerted him to the immi and hidden danger. He slowed down, his hand firmly on the hilt of his sword, still buzzing with residual energy.

  When he finally reached the exit, Lucius found himself face to face with an imposing and threatening figure: a Juggernaut. The creature was a colossal mass of muscles and armor, with eyes that glowed with inhuman fury. The Juggernaut was a feared legend among adventurers, known for its brutal strength and almost unshakeable resilience.

  "This?! Why is this here?!" Lucius was stunned.

  "!" Before he could react, the creature attacked him, he could only cast his ebony flesh and quick dodge before receiving direct damage, but that did not prevent him from being hit, he felt his rib being pierced by the cws of the creature while flying to the nearby wall.

  *Crack*

  In the midst of the debris, Lucius began to spit blood from the wound.

  "Damn, this hurts a lot! My sword..." He saw his sword fallen uhe creature while he tried to heal quickly, as the creature did not wait and attacked him again to kill him.

  Using quick dodge with boosters didn't seem to be enough, because the creature hit him again, making him fly to the ter of the room while spreading more of his blood with new injuries.

  "What is this? I 't even dodge this creature?" He couldn't help but growl.

  "Stay away!" Lucius shouted seeing the creature advang again and unched lightning magic to hit it, but the Juggernaut dodged the attacks.

  He took advantage of this time and summoned an atronach, the fming peared and quickly ran to the creature, but in a sed, she was cut in half, the creature didn't advao Lucius at that moment, just looking at him as if he were easy prey.

  Lucius ched his fists tightly, he khis battle would be different from all the previous ones. A Juggernaut was not just a formidable oppo; it was a force of nature, a kind of dungeon deferigger, its goal is only to kill.

  "I o deal with this..." He said in a serious tone while still dripping blood from his lips, Lucius stood up, he summoned a sword he had in ste and prepared for the frontation.

  The Juggernaut advanced, each step making the ground tremble. Lucius moved agilely, dodging the creature's devastating attacks by a hair. He knew he couldn't face the Juggernaut in a direct frontation; his strategy would have to be more ing.

  Lucius unched a series of Fireballs and Multi-Firebolts, trying to find some brea the imposing armor of the Juggernaut. With the attaow being unched up close, some of them were caught by the mohe creature roared, the rage in its eyes increasing with each attack that Lucius delivered.

  The battle became a deadly game of cat and mouse. Lucius used Quick Dodge to stay out of the reach of the Juggernaut's powerful blows, while looking for an opening to attack. His Lightning oransformed his sword into arified bde, each blow emitting sparks as it hit the beast's armor, but it hardly seemed to have any effect.

  Lucius, in a moment of crity during the intense frontation, realized that, despite his Herculean effort, victory over the Juggernaut was beyond his reach. The monster, although momentarily destabilized by Lucius's attack, still possessed overwhelming strength and resilience. Lucius knew he needed an alternative solution – a route of escape.

  Taking advantage of a brief respite, when the Juggernaut regrouped for a tack, Lucius quickly accessed the system. His mind was rag, desperately searg for a way out. That's when he found the solution: the Teleport spell. Without hesitation, he used his accumuted points to acquire it, knowing this ability would be his only ce of esg alive.

  [Space Spell/Fast Teleport/Rank 4: 10,000,000] (Teleport to any location within a radius of 50M)

  [Acquire (Yes)/(No)]

  'Yes!'

  But Lucius was aware that, in battle, every fra of a sed ted. He couldn't afford a long t to activate the spell. That's when he remembered the Magic t Nullification Card, an item he possessed that would allow the Teleport spell to be instantaneous. Quickly, he applied the card to the newly acquired spell.

  [Used 1x Magic t Nullification Card on Space Spell/Fast Teleport/Rank 4!]

  When the Juggernaut advanced again, its roar eg through the dungeon walls, Lucius was ready. The instant the creature was about to hit him, Lucius activated the Teleport spell. In a fsh of light, he disappeared from in front of the Juggernaut, reappearing at a safe distance holding his injuries.

  "This gives me some advantage, *Cough.*"

  Lucius, now far from the immediate reach of the monster, realized the gravity of his situation. He was severely injured, and even with his magical abilities, khat fag the Juggernaut was a risk that could cost his life. With bored breathing and his body covered in wounds, Lucius made a critical decision. It was time to retreat, to live to fight another day.

  Juggernaut looked at where Lucius had been a moment ago with a fused expression, quickly followed the st of blood and found him dozens of meters away and ran to his side.

  With his heart pounding and mind spinning in search of solutions, Lucius prepared to use Telepain. The Juggernaut, unshakable and merciless, tis relentless pursuit. With each teleport, Lucius barely mao maintain a safe distance, his strength rapidly diminishing with eaent.

  As he moved frantically, trying to gain time and space, a distant voice called out to him. "Lucius!" shouted an enigmatic voice, ing from an unknown dire. For a moment, Lucius hesitated, questioning whether the voice was real or just a trick of his exhausted mind. But then, he heard it again, clearer and more urgent. "This way, quickly!"

  Without thinking twid knowing every sed recious, Lucius directed his eleport towards the voice. He entered inside a wall with a dark tunnel, searg for the voice, but this was interrupted by the Juggernaut's cw peing the wall with force at that moment as he dodged at the st moment and used telepain.

  "Over here!!" The voice was heard again and Lucius used telepain in that dire.

  He reappeared near a secret entrance hidden in the shadoath he had never noticed before. From within the darkness, a hooded figure waved at him.

  "Quick, before he gets to you!" the figure whispered, with evident urgen their voice.

  Lucius, trusting his instinct, ran towards the secret entrance. Behind him, the sound of the Juggernaut approag was like thunder, each step resonating in the depths of the dungeon. Lucius ehe dark passage, the hooded figure right behind him, closing the entrah a quick hand movement.

  *CRACK CRACK*

  The Juggernaut began to use its cws to pierce the wall at that moment, it tried to do so for dozens of seds, but these walls were more reinforced, and the sound of it hitting them stopped after a while as if it had given up.

  Ihe passage, Lucius finally had a moment to breathe. He leaned against the cold wall, trying to catch his breath while spitting blood. His body was in agony, each wound throbbing with pain.

  "Who are you? And how did you know I was here?" Lucius asked, looking suspiciously at the mysterious figure.

  The figure lowered the hood, revealing a face that Lucius reized but had never met before. "We don't have time for expnations now," the figure replied. "You have healing ability, don't you? You o heal. It's safe here, for now. He knows we're here and won't give up."

  Lucius knew he had many questions, but also khe figure was right. He o heal and prepare for what was to e . Lucius quickly rummaged through his dimensional arsenal, pulling out healing potions and ing them urgently. As the liquid went down, bringing immediate relief to his wounds, he activated his intermediate healing magic, feeling the energy flow through his body, closing cuts and healing bruises, but his breathing remained bored, leading him to take even energy potions.

  "We 't stay here," said the mysterious figure, cheg the secretly closed entrance. "We o follow the hidden paths. The Juggernaut might er here, but he will hunt us through the corridors."

  Lucius, now a bit recovered, nodded, uanding the gravity of the situation. He followed the hooded figure through a byrinth of narrow passages and dark tunnels. The path was plex, a tangle of routes that anyone would have found alone, he could have, but that was with his cirvoyance spell.

  As they moved, the sound of the Juggernaut searg for them echoed in the distance, a stant threat that impelled them to move forward. At various points, the hooded figure stopped, listening, ensuring they weren't being followed.

  Finally, after what seemed like ay, they emerged into an open space, far from the usual corridors of the floor in front of the stairs to go up.

  "Are we safe now?" Lucius asked, still panting.

  For a moment, the hooded figure remained silent, as if p the ahen, slowly, they lowered the hood, revealing their true identity.

  Lucius stared, not surprised, at a Xenos lizard - a creature he ko be intelligent and civilized like Marie, uhe onsters of the dungeon. Their eyes met, and Lucius noticed an expression of wisdom and passion in the Xenos's gaze.

  "My name is Lyd, but you don't seem surprised by that. It seems Marie has spoken about me and didn't lie when you didn't seem to reject us," said the Xenos with a voice that carried a tone of resped seriousness.

  "Well, as you said, you're not the first Xenos I've seen and you saved my life at a critical moment, I couldn't be ungrateful, could I?" Lucius spoke and Lyd nodded sympathetically.

  "I saw you fighting. You are strong, but everong need help sometimes."

  "I had no idea that thing would appear anyway... But how did you find me?"

  "I visited Marie some time ago and she told me you came here. When I heard the explosions on the floor, I imagi was you, but I hought the mother would summon that creature to kill you, you must have enraged her a lot," Lyd said and Lucius sighed, the chaos caused in the fight at the coliseum must have summohe Juggernaut.

  "What do we do now?" Lucius asked as they asded the dungeon.

  "I would like to introduce you to the other Xenos," Lyd tinued. "You've proven to be a powerful warrior and a potential ally. oals may be different, but I believe we learn a lot from each other." He seemed eager despite trying to disguise it.

  Lucius pohe proposal for a moment. The idea of eg with the Xenos, of expl this unknown facet of the dungeon, was intriguing. "I accept your offer, Lyd. I look forward to meeting your panions and learning more about you. I've already met Marie and you, I say it wasn't a bad experience," Lucius smiled at this.

  Lyd smiled, a gesture that veyed a sense of genuine camaraderie. "Great. Follow me, then. We'll find a safe way out of here and then I'll take you to our meeting."

  Thus, both followed the stairs to the floor.
