Demon Lord: Erotic Adventure in Another World

[View C-Rank Dungeon Traps?]

Dangerous Traps in Rank- C Dungeons

— Explosive Trap - Traps created by oil and flame cause high damage followed by area-sized burning damage.

— Pitfall Trap - a trap that separates the party; one person falls and must clear a deadly version of the dungeon with monsters five levels higher.

— Spike Trap - a simple spike trap that can sprout from the walls or even fire from a distance.

— Poison Trap - a simple poison trap that shoots darts at the target and can penetrate most light or medium armours.

— Monster Trap (Rare) - a Deadly trap that causes a berserk and impaired mental state while trapping the party in a spawn room. (DEADLY!)

'I need to be aware of the trap types that could appear. The pitfall and spear traps are quite dangerous.'

He also removed the kobold tattoo and realised that he seemed to have dark vision naturally now. His sapphire eyes moved around the darkness, not needing the torch that Yumiko carried.

'The change in that cell was more than just a mental transformation. My bones, teeth and even my looks changed slightly... Mother, what exactly did you hide from me?'

"Are we ready to set off again? I don't want them to catch up and call us slow." Erika added, checking her weapons and cleaning them. She seemed eager to prove herself.

"Mm, Ryuji, let's go kill more lizards and take their scales for money."

"Sure, let's go. Be careful about any strange places on the floor or walls. If you see switches or panels, don't touch them before telling me."

Ryuji then headed towards the first passage. He planned to clear the entire floor and make sure he knew if there were traps or monster rooms he could exploit.

The next two rooms were empty and held no secret pathways. The corridors were short and had one turn, which made them easy to clear.

Ryuji moved the group towards the third passage and instructed Yumiko to lead beside him this time. Ryuji alternated between the two, which seemed to keep them both pumped up and excited.

The next room contained three lizard men. They stood, swaying side to side, as they waited in ambush on the wall above the passage, two on one side and one on the other. Their eyes were glowing as they focused on the intruders.

'These sneaky bastards.'

"Yumiko, up to the left, crush it. Erika, let's attack the right side."

"Ok~ darling!"

"Fine."

"DON'T DIE TO FAST!" Yumiko yelled before she sprinted into the room, drawing all three enemies to her.

She stepped off the wall, running along it like a beast, before twisting her body, using a sharp rock to propel herself up towards the lone lizard man and smashing into his temple with her right knee.

The gruesome crack echoed through the cave as Erika tossed a dagger into the throat of one of the two opposites. While Ryuji's axe cleaved through the rock wall, causing them both to fall and crack their necks on the ground.

The Aberrant Cavern didn't seem as difficult as the others stated, but then again, this was the first floor.

"Ahh~ this is strange. It's never felt so good before!?" Erika's hand covered her mouth as she seemed to level up along with him and Yumiko, her thighs trembling, looking at Ryuji with wet eyes like she blamed him.

Not long after they all finished, Ryuji led the group through many of the remaining chambers. They took several spears and lots of scales in their bags, but after clearing most of the caves, they found only basic lizard men, leaving only a single path in the room.

"Ryuji, how do you survive taking so many blows?"

Erika's hands rubbed his exposed chest. The bronze armour would repair, but only when the clock turned midnight or they spent an hour out of combat.

So his various bloody wounds healed, and his muscles were visible and caressed by Erika, who showed concern, and Yumiko, with a lustful light in her eyes, as if competing with Erika.

"It's related to my class; otherwise, I would be much less useful to the knights. I can take a beating and heal myself at a decent rate. Though it doesn't stop the pain."

"Are you alright? Should we take a rest, and I'll rub this ointment all over you?" Yumiko asked with the sweetest voice Ryuji had heard from her, but he shook his head.

The next room gave him a good feeling.

A little tired from crushing the enemies, he felt something deadly from the next room, like the ones up to now were just young warriors in training.

This time, the path was narrow and winding, and the group climbed down a path that was nothing more than a simple spiral staircase. The stairs had stone tiles but plenty of gaps between each one. The stairs seemed to have been designed for small-bodied monsters and not humanoids like themselves, making the going rough and requiring a substantial amount of effort for Ryuji and his enormous axe.

The clang of weapons and bags echoed, but as they reached the bottom, the space opened up, and the group gasped in awe.

"Hey, that's not a trap, is it?" Erika asked, pointing to the wall before them.

"I think so..."

Click!

Yumiko's back foot stepped back to avoid that trap, only to stand on a switch on the floor. "Eh!?"

"That sound..."

"AHHHHH!"

"Ahhhh!"

Suddenly, the party dropped, the floor opening into a pitfall trap.

Ryuji held his axe into the ceiling with one arm and onto the sides of both women's waists with the other arm.

The weight of them all pulled at his arm and shoulder until he dragged them slowly, falling lower. Thanks to his axe and quick movements, their speed slowed. Now, below them, a vast room masked in darkness.

"Careful..." Erika whispered, her face flushed red because of Ryuji's hand gripping her ass. It felt strange, but she didn't mind, apart from knowing she was currently a little sweaty.

"Don't move."

Yumiko clutched Ryuji's chest, her legs wrapped around his waist, and her tail swayed rapidly. From this height, the fall would still cause some damage.

'four fire-types and ten big spearmen...' With his superior dark vision, he could see through the strange darkness, but the pain in his muscles and shoulder continued to increase; despite his strength being over thirty, thanks to his demonification, it still hurt like hell!

"This will be difficult. It's a monster room, but I can see more in the back of the room. It seems to be the leader, so I'm thinking we should make a plan before I drop and hold you both to avoid taking damage."

"Okay!"

"Nn... Eh!?"

Above them, the rocks quaked. Stones ranging from a pebble to the size of a man's head fell down the tunnel, likely a failsafe to ensure no one could remain safe inside!

"We're gonna die!!"

"Ryuji!"

'This is bad.'

The falling rocks and spears were too heavy for his axe to hold.

He had to focus on protecting the two women as they all fell to the bottom floor. He grasped them tight while letting his axe fall to the side with a thud and grind that caused dust to cover the room and further block vision.

He landed on the hard rock floor. It hurt his back, but he kept them from taking any damage, ignoring his own body and rolling with them in his arms until finally he came to a stop.

"Ugh... Argh..."

Ryuji noticed his red bar almost reaching halfway before a huge red light shot towards them from four directions; in the blink of an eye, he pushed the girls under his body and bit down, ready to take the damage from the four fireballs.

The force of one fireball hurt a little but amplified with four. It knocked his body back and rolled it in the dirt. The smell of his singed clothing and hair was disgusting and burnt his nostrils as he lay there on the ground, half-conscious.

"Ryuji!" Yumiko cried.

"Don't cry, get ready to fight!"

Ryuji's bloody and burnt body stood holding his axe, using the damage and force to send him towards his weapon—he tried to shake off the damage but still felt a little dizzy.

"Ryuji, I will take the normal spearmen; you take the fire-types!" Erika called out, already rushing towards the group of ten muscular lizardmen, nothing like the others before them.

"Good!"

The first fire type stood only six metres from Ryuji. So he activated his Demon Eyes of Battle, reducing its speed and abilities and grabbed his axe like a hammed and tossed it towards the lizard that couldn't do anything but be skewered in half.
