Child from the Dungeon

Chapter 180: Meet You Again Part 2

" I see, ya want me to follow ya, huh? " Draven asks as he follows Priestess Raksha, accompanied by Reala, his translator.

" Viraksh haskush monartior, El Betzal...? "

" Translate, please? "

" The orc priestess wants to ask the young master 'How long has it been, Lord Shadow?' "

" Lord...Shadow? " Draven asks, he is still dumbfounded by what just transpired.

"( This really an awkward day indeed... )"

"( Amongst all Dungeon I've scoured during my grind, I never once thought I would meet an acquaintance from my old 'Double Dungeon' life. " Draven thought about this, for he thought all of the people he knew back then would've died for he remembers most of them are dead.

"( Yes, I'm sure of it, they all should've been dead due to their time while I remain as that pitch-black baby my father met back then. )"

"( I don't know why, but I think there's something that kept me from dying, perhaps inside that Dungeon, I eat something that made me live long, I guess? )"

"( Or perhaps the Dungeon itself, was meant to sustain my life? )" Draven thinks about this, wondering why he could survive that long.

"( Shit, the time doesn't add up to me, I forget how long I've been there after I was born from the tree, yes, the Black Tree, I remember now. )" Draven slowly remembers the moments of his birth back then*.

"( It was dark, yet bright because of the light of the moon, I remember many eyes gazed upon my birth, as I came out from the Tree's very fruit. )"

"( They gasped at me, those monsters, yet after gasping, instead of eating me or whatever the monsters usually do, they instead chants a name, a name they used to identify me... )"

"( Betzalel, Betzalel, that's what they said to me. )"

"( A name unknown to me of its origin, the first word I've ever heard in my life. )" Draven thinks about it while following Raksha and Reala.

" Tis' 'ere " Raksha stops in front of a sealed door, a door deep inside the Dungeon as she then opens her robes more, revealing her hands which she actually had four hands.

"( What the f? She had four hands? )" Draven sees it as she reveals it by revealing some of her skin and folds the robe that covers it.

"( What kind of an Hellorc is she? Is she a new kind of breed? )"

"( Young Master, I think lady 'Raksha' here is part of a rare orc species... )" Reala says to Draven using their <Link>.

"( Ya know the species, Reala? )" Draven asks.

"( I kinda remember what it was, but I forget which one it is... )"

"( This race is still related to the Hellorcs, but they are higher caste than them. )"

"( I forget which one, but if big sis Tania was here, she could recognize it which one. )"

"( Ya bet! Tania is an expert in all things regarding Elves and Orcs, she's a Dark Elf General after all, things like this should've been her daily meal during her time before she became a Black Shadow. )"

"( Indeed, master! )" Reala says while waiting for Raksha as she does her ritual in front of the door, dancing, and chanting songs that sound like spells in order to open the sealed door.

*The Huge Magically Sealed Door Unlocked, it creating an opening sound so loud.*

"( GAH! WHAT WITH THE LOUD VOICE! GODDAMIT! )" Draven covers his ears so hard while opening his mouth in order for that loud hellish sound don't destroy his eardrums.

Draven sees the girls beside him, he sees them still standing there, unfazed as they hear the opening door's loud sound.

"( Damn, how could these Ancient Elf Descendants could withstand this loud noise despite their long ears and sharp sensitive hearing. )" Draven thinks about it, by any logic, these two should've been the ones who prioritize covering their ears as the loud voice would've to harm their very sensitive eardrums.

"( Or perhaps things like this are usually for them, already...? )" Draven just thinks of that possibility as the door then opens wide.

< Location Identified >

< Location: Great Elder Orc Chief's Lair >

< You have entered the [Great Elder Orc Chief's Lair] >

" To think you will come and visit, I never thought in my last days, I would meet you again. " said a voice, an old voice, came from an old orc sitting on its throne, made from a thorned tree rich with Mana.

"( An orc that could speak human language!? )"

"( And, he knows me!? )" Draven thinks about this as he sees the old orc.

< Scanning >

< Target Identified >

< Boss: Elder Orc Chief, Ragitor (LVL. 93) >

"( Level 93? )" Draven asks as he approached the old orc and stands before his throne, as he walks approaching the orc, the old orc chief, Ragitor stands up, abandoned his throne, and comes down to meet Draven face-to-face.

" Yar actions... " Draven says as he sees Ragitor's behavior.

" Judging by yar behavior, I could tell you came to greet me as someone you longed to see, aren't ya? "

" Perhaps, you knew me back in your old times? " Draven politely asks.

" Yes, how long has it been? it seems my time had made it difficult to recognize me, due to my age, Betzalel. " Ragitor says.

" Ya knew who I am? " Draven asks as he wants to make sure.

" I haven't told ya my very name, though..., I'm... "

" Draven, the Prince of Shadows...? " Ragitor asks.

" The rumors spread true in the world of monsters, the Prince of Shadows and his Shadow Creature Army, annihilating every Dungeon they enter and he who brings chaos upon Alviheim, the realm of those spoiled Elves. " Ragitor tells.

" The rumors told your name to be 'Draven', but once we heard the term 'Shadow Creature Army', we who knew you immediately realized who that is, the person behind that very name. "

" For only one being could create Shadow Creatures after Ragnarok and that being is you. " Ragitor points his finger at Draven as he then opens his robes, showing his hulking muscular muscles and armored body.

" Why are ya showing that all to me? are ya provoking? " Draven asks as he prepares to equip his weapon.

" Yes, Betzalel... "

" The reason I want this is because I want to test your might... "

" To make sure you are ready to do the 'trial' I had been tasked to show you. "

" If you remember, Betzalel. "

" Trial!? " Draven asks as he shows up his <Aether Blade>, now reforged and upgraded into <Aether Blade, Ascalon (S) >

" What 'Trial'? I didn't remember that kind of thing. " Draven says while hoping that <Flashback> skill will appear and show him what the old orc means by 'trial'.

" So you really had forgotten, Betzalel... "

" *sighs* How long have you been as a human? does it corrupt you, your memories with us? " Ragitor asks which made Draven confused even more.

" Seriously, Ragitor, if you want to make me remember then at least give me a clue! "

" Or I- whoa! " Draven dodges Ragitor's attack with his <Black Smoke Moth Slip>, after dodging it, he sees what he was going to be hit with, which Draven sees Ragitor had just swung a big ass sword, filled with spikes within its huge-ass blade, as he just swings it like a racket.

" It's been a long time for me to swing this sweet love of mine. " Ragitor says to his sword.

" I hope with every of this sword's strikes, you would remember piece-by-piece of the old times in that Dungeon. "

" Betzalel! " Ragitor says as he charges onto Draven.

< New Quest! >

< Special Quest: [Defeat Ragitor (0/1) >

Extra:

Ragitor, just like Raksha, had four ears but only two arms. He and Raksha are relatives but not that close, hence why Raksha is different from him despite her having four ears like him.

Something to note, Ragitor and Raksha came from the higher caste of the Hellorcs, a new higher species whose name had been lost after Ragnarok. These two once went to the [Double Dungeon] where Donovan (as Betzalel) exists, to eat the previous Black Fruits sometime before Donovan shows up where they would meet him days after his birth and become acquainted along the way.
