BXBX NOVEL 97 Chapter 96
After the brief introductions, those two returned to their houses. Leon could look at them in amazement in how those guys become powerful. After fighting for weeks alongside Paul and his underlings, he understood that B rank soldiers had the same power of someone like Ren, who was the captain and responsible for protecting a small town. Those guys weren\'t exactly weaklings, but rank A soldiers must be at least three or four times stronger. However, Leon had no idea how those guys reached that weak with such an attitude.
"Well, that is it for introductions," Tom said. "Things around here aren\'t that complicated, so you will have an easy time learning the things you have to do. After defeating the skeletons, we must collect the dust that was once their bones. So, you should always have a broom and a shovel to get that."
"Okay…" Leon frowned.
"We only fight during mornings," Tom added. "After that, every single one of us stays on guard duty. If a skeleton appears, you smash it. If a monster appears, you alert the others."
Leon nodded, even though he didn\'t see many monsters after leaving New York, it was only because he didn\'t pass any urban zones or at least what was left of those zones. It looked like monsters tend to gather in those zones because the number of places that make for good hideouts was pretty decent.
"With you here, we will be able to decrease the amount of time everyone will watch the dungeon," Tom explained. "Unfortunately, you will have to work on the worst turn since you a newcomer."
"The final hours of the night… I don\'t mind." Leon said.
"Ah… eventually, you will mind." Tom said. "We usually also take turns in working in that turn… well, you will understand why."
Leon couldn\'t understand the meaning behind Tom\'s words, but since he eventually would see why, he decided not to ask for explanations. Anyway, since Tom had nothing more to say to him, he returned to his temporary home.
"Welcome back, master," Gisela said. "Did something happen?"
"No, I\'m just curious about something. "You can continue your training."
Gisela asked that because Leon entered but didn\'t close the door, he decided to observe his new teammates in case something happens. Tom was a soldier who focused on brute strength, Leon didn\'t see him using any skills, but with the brute strength alone, he could smash skeletons with a single strike of his hammer.
"I guess he trained and trains like a madman to obtain that much power… He looks to be a decent guy, but if something happens and I ended up fighting him, maybe I will have trouble if I don\'t finish him off fast."
The other two were also powerful. However, their strength came from the skills that they obtained from tomes. The man could swing his sword and then shot an energy beam to destroy the skeletons. As for the woman, she could increase her strength and speed using a support spell, and with a rain of attacks, she would decimate her opponents using a purple spear.
"No wonder those two are so lazy, they didn\'t work hard to obtain that power. They are not stronger than an ordinary B rank soldier, but their skills are so powerful that they were selected to become rank A members in this organization."
It looked like their weapons had some extra effects as well, so Leon could easily imagine that their growth ended ages ago, and they would never grow stronger than that.
Leon\'s turn would begin at 01:00 AM, and he would work until 06:00 AM, which was the usual time where the soldiers would enter the dungeon, but surprisingly, the guy who stayed on guard duty before he knocked on his door at 11:00 PM.
"Hey, newbie, it is your turn now."
Before Leon could answer the door, he left, and as if it was a matter of fact, he entered his own home. Leon sighed, those guys were uncooperative beyond reason. Regardless, he couldn\'t pick a fight on his first day, but he already knew how he would solve that problem.
"Let me accompany you, master," Gisela said. "I will pick the dust."
Leon didn\'t refuse Gisela\'s help, and even though he would rather spend his night alone, it would be better if he gives her some pointers while she is practicing Water Manipulation. There was a campfire in front of the entrance of the dungeon, so they headed there... before Leon and Gisela could sit, they heard moans and low screams of pain, and then Tom\'s words suddenly started to make sense.
Leon frowned at first, but soon he understood what was going on. The man and the woman were having \'parties at their own houses. Although the space wasn\'t that large, it looked like at least four people were inside each house. Leon heard sounds of whips and sounds of some objects being hit against human flesh; after that, he heard moans of absolute ecstasy.
"Holy crap... a dominatrix and a sadist. Wait a minute... a dominatrix can also be considered a sadist... half of my teammates are sadists..."
Leon didn\'t like the sound of that, but it wasn\'t his problem unless those two try to mess with him. Leon didn\'t felt the need to help those maids and butlers, and by the look of things, he concluded that they didn\'t want to be helped; they wanted more... or perhaps they have been trained by those two, and now they like. Either way, Leon didn\'t want to be involved.
At least Leon didn\'t hear any sound coming from Tom\'s house, it looked like he was an ordinary guy, but considering that half of the teammates were weirdoes, Leon decided to be wary of him.
