A Commonplace Story Of Overpowered Sorcerer

Chapter 34 - Epilogue: Is It Wrong to Pick Up a Girl in a Dungeon?

It was currently in the noon outside of Great Orcus Labyrinth, but unless you have the power to discover about this while being deep inside the dungeon, you won't know about it.

Well, Rio could easily find out the time outside of the labyrinth and he knew it very well. That aside, he was currently standing in front of certain heavy double doors on the fiftieth floor of true Great Orcus Labyrinth. On each side of the door was a statue of a cyclops sunk deep into the recesses of the wall. And that there was a magic circle carved into a tiny hollow on each of the two.

And, Rio wasn't alone at this moment.

"Wanna bet, Liselotte?" Rio suddenly said to the blue-haired, maid uniform-wearing girl at his side.

"Bet? Bet about what?" Liselotte questioned Rio with a careful tone as she peered at Rio's face with her transformed red eyes. Rio finally turned around and stared at Liselotte's face.

It had been five days since he jumped into the depth of Great Orcus Labyrinth. When the teleportation trap from the Glanz Crystals Daisuke touched activated, he used the split second from the transportation to store all students into a pocket dimension he created using Space and Time magicks. In that place, time is stopped so the students are being put under the stasis effect.

In the beginning, Rio planned to send them back to their version of Earth, but Rio changed his mind at the last moment. If he just sent them back, there was a chance that Ehit would check into the students' iteration of Earth and discover that they had been returned back to their home. There is a big chance that Ehit will summon them back and it will become more problematic. Well, Rio could take anything Ehit throws in his direction, but he is lazy to clean the mess unrelated to him. That's not his responsibility, by the way.

Thus, Rio would keep those students in his pocket dimension under the stasis effect until he dealt with Ehit's problem. Probably, Ehit will not survive after that promised day. Nay, Rio would turn that outcome into factuality. After all, Ehit is too troublesome and one heck of a scheming son of a bitch that is best to disappear as soon as possible.

And yet, Rio wasn't in a hurry to crush Ehit. For the time being, Rio was going to enjoy his time while having an amusing adventure as he visited each Labyrinth of the Liberators. And simultaneously, he was going to add more girls and women into his harem plan.

All digressions aside, back to the topic at hand. After Rio forcefully stored the students inside his pocket dimension, he cloaked himself in an illusion and hid his presence. Hence, Captain Meld and the knights couldn't find him nor the students after they opened their eyes in that bridge.

Before Rio jumped into the deep ravine under the bridge, the last view he'd seen from the knights were their pale and aghast expression. They probably thought of what kind of punishment or chaos will ensue when the kingdom and the Holy Church knew about this development, Rio thought.

It wasn't long until he arrived his destination, and the first thing Rio received as a warm welcome in the depth of Great Orcus Labyrinth was a jaw of starving mutt. It was the same lightning twin-tailed wolf that Canon-Hajime eat to get his monsterization and Lightning Field skill.

Of course, Rio dealt with the mutt's problem easily. There wasn't even a trace, not even a drop of blood, left behind.

Afterward, Rio sought God's Crystal. However, it wasn't as easy as Hajime who luckily stumbled upon it after one of his arms was severed and eaten by the demonic bear. Rio needed to waste several hours until he obtained the God's Crystal.

After storing God's Crystal and collecting the spilled Ambrosia on the ground, he summoned Liselotte to the cave where God's Crystal formerly resided.

The blue-haired maid was perplexed by the sudden happenstance, but she recovered quickly when saw Rio. She then bombarded Rio with questions. Where they were? What happened? How she was summoned here?

Rio answered Liselotte's flurried questions calmly. He told her where they were, what happened to him while hiding the fact that he stored the students into his pocket dimension, and that she was summoned to his location because of the ring he gave her.

Afterward, Rio began to hunt the monster on the first floor of the Depth, the shortened version of the true Great Orcus Labyrinth Rio had coined, and eat the meat to raise his status value, barring his broken Magic stats. Nothing happened to him, surprisingly.

Rio's hair didn't turn white or his eyes, red, like the canonical Hajime who got Marie Antoinette syndrome. He, too, didn't get the skills, only the stats boots, but he didn't think it too much since he could create any skills he wanted.

Rio didn't forget to feed the meat to Liselotte. He didn't force her and told her that it was up to her. Of course, he told her the benefit and promised that she wouldn't die despite eating monster's meat that should have killed someone due to mana poisoning.

After careful pondering, Liselotte agreed. She put her faith in Rio, who answered her belief to him. When the monsterization happened, Rio helped Liselotte acclimating with the sudden growth and berserk mana of a monster. He did it carefully and numbed her pain. Also, he tried his best to not overstraining Liselotte's body like how it happened to the Canon-Hajime. It took a long time, but Liselotte's unique blue hair—in Rio's perspective—was saved. But, the same thing couldn't be said for her eyes. Her beautiful blue eyes changed to ruby red, not unlike that of vampires.

In the end, other than absurd stat boost, Liselotte acquired Electrokinesis skill, unlike Hajime's Lightning Field, from the twin-tailed wolf. It was because of Liselotte's aptitude for magic was surprisingly better than Hajime. Perhaps, it was because she was born and grew up in a world where mana permeating the air. Hence, she acquired Electrokinesis instead of a trashy Lightning Field.

From the Kickmaster Bunny, Liselotte acquired the same skill as the Canon Hajime. The same thing happened when she ate Demonic Bear's meat.

Afterward, they dived deeper into the labyrinth. At the same time, Liselotte also learned to master her power and her boosted stats better. Rio had transmuted a pair of rapiers for Liselotte since her Job was Blade Dancer. In fact, Liselotte performed one blade dance for Rio, who was mesmerized by her skill. Though her blade dance wasn't good for fighting, it was a very amazing performance nonetheless.

They had leisure time when they dived the most dangerous one of the seven labyrinths. They looked like a pair of a newly married couple who was enjoying sightseeing on their honeymoon, as a matter of fact. If Oscar Orcus is still alive, he would surely vomit blood due to frustration.

And thus, they arrived on the fiftieth floor and were currently standing before the sealed room. Which contained the certain former Queen of Vampire kingdom three hundred years ago. Of course, Liselotte wasn't aware of this fact. Rio knew about this because he'd read the novels in which Tortus was a fictional another world for a story that glorified the protagonist.

All that aside, back to the present situation...

"Yep. A bet. For the content, well, if there's a girl sealed behind the door, she'll become your harem sister. How's it?" Rio stated while raising his brows challengingly at Liselotte.

At first, Liselotte had a blank expression. After a few seconds, she laughed at Rio's face. She spoke to him after her laughter stopped.

"Please, don't be ridiculous, Rio. There's no way a girl is sealed behind these doors."

"Is it wrong to pick up a girl in a dungeon?"

"Of course, it is so wrong in so many aspects! If there's one, then this girl is a very dangerous being. In fact, I won't allow her to be my 'little sister'."

Rio heaved a deep sigh full of vexation and lamentation. "If there is a girl and she's dangerous, I'll accept your refusal. But, if she's actually an innocent girl, she'll become the second member of my harem. How is it?" Rio spoke with a tone filled with provocation.

Liselotte wastes no time for answering Rio's demands. She nodded shortly and said to him, "Very well. I'll agree. But, remember, if there's a dangerous being, you'll be the one who deals with it."

"I agree." Rio nodded his assent and turned at the doors. He raised his left hand and touched the cold surface of the doors and poured his mana.

The next moment, Rio got zapped and activated the mechanism of the door.
