Chapter 400: Side Story- Ororo's Ascension (I) [edited]

[POV Reo]

My eyes opened and I pulled myself out of the tangle of female limbs… I smiled at the scene but I needed to wake up Ororo so that I could take her to train. I gently shook Ororo… she yawned like a cat and pulled herself out of the bed.

"Good morning…" Ororo said as she wriggled out of the bed and snaked her arms around my neck. I simply grinned and locked my lips with her. I grabbed her butt and gave her a squeeze.

Ororo moaned into my mouth and ended the kiss. She smirked and raised her eyebrow… "Looks like you still want to play with my ass, even after you played with it to your heart's content last night" Ororo said and I shook my head.

"I will never get enough of it" I declared proudly and gave her ass another squeeze. Ororo simply chuckled due to my antics.

"So, when are we leaving?" Ororo asked curiously.

"As soon as we finish breakfast…" I said and Ororo was already dragging me towards the shower. After a quickie and a shower, both of us found ourselves in the kitchen. I decided to prepare some sandwiches for both of us. Ororo could have probably prepared a sandwich but I didn't want to take the risk.

I wonder if they will ever learn how to cook. I finally placed the sandwiches in front of Ororo and I sat down beside her. I took the first bite… hmm, satisfactory.

"So what should I expect?" Ororo asked while eating.

"Fighting... of course" I said like it was the most obvious thing in the world. Ororo gave me the stink eye and snorted in amusement. It only took us a few minutes to finish our breakfast and the rest of the girls were only coming down now.

I quickly greeted them and pecked them on the lips one by one. All of them were still basking in the afterglow. "So, when are you guys going to return?" Rumi asked me while calmly sipping tea.

"Don't know, everything depends on Ororo" I said with a shrug while looking towards Ororo and she also shrugged when she noticed that everyone's attention was on her at this moment.

"I don't even know where I am going, so…" Ororo trailed off and other girls decided to leave her alone since she also didn't know where we were going. Yeah… their dynamic is kind of good like that.

With a wave of my hand, a portal appeared beside Ororo and me. "Let's go" I said while pointing towards the portal. Ororo nodded her head and quickly stepped into the portal, I waved at the girls and entered the portal too.

The two of us found ourselves standing inside a wide hallway. The walls were lit up with blue lights. "This place seems to be quite depressing" Ororo pointed out in a dry tone.

"You won't see me arguing with that" I said in a bland tone. Yes, this place looked really depressing. Well, I shouldn't have expected anything else. This was, after all, a Dungeon.

"I feel several life signs ahead, though, they don't seem to be human" Ororo said and blue lightning started to crackle around her hands. Only after a couple of seconds, a group of goblins appeared down the hallway, they were rushing towards us with primitive weapons in their hands.

"...Goblins?" Ororo questioned with a slightly surprised look on her face but her eyes were focused on the group of goblins rushing towards us. A lightning whip appeared in Ororo's hand with a loud crack she bisected all the goblins into two from the middle.

"We are in a Dungeon, right?" Ororo accused me and I simply grinned.

"Yes, we are inside a Dungeon. A Dungeon is the best place to level up… isn't it?" I asked and Ororo nodded her head with a confused look on her face. Even though she seemed to nod her head, she didn't seem to be sure about her own question.

"...I understand but what kind of Dungeon are we talking about here?" Ororo asked and tilted her head in confusion.

Before I could even answer I felt a massive pull over my body, it was trying to forcefully move me somewhere else but it was obvious that it wasn't working. At the same time, the whole Dungeon floor shuddered and the lights turned off, slowly a Black Monster started to form in front of us.

"That monster looks to be quite strong" I pointed out and swatted away the force trying to move me away forcefully. The monster's eyes focussed on me and it roared loudly, the monster looked like it was a mix between Lizardman and a Minotaur.

"Yeah, definitely strong" Ororo said and lightning armor surrounded her body and lightning whips appeared in each of her hands. Even though the monster was pretty much ignoring Ororo, it didn't mean that Ororo was safe.

Once again the force appeared wanting to move me away from this place forcefully. "Hakai" I said and a purple glow surrounded my body and the force was obliterated out of existence. That force was pretty important for this world but it can get fucked, the world should be grateful that I didn't destroy Heaven out of spite.

While I was busy dealing with the force, Ororo had already engaged the black monster. The monster roared in pain and fury when Ororo's whip landed on the monster's face leaving a deep gash and destroying an eye.

The monster clawed at Ororo who simply jumped back using her more than impressive speed. Her speed might already be in the SSS rank. The monster also had some sort of regenerative ability as its wounds were getting healed but its eye wasn't healing. Hmm… so, it might be able to heal, but it can't regenerate an organ.

Minutes passed as the battle raged on… At this moment, neither of them seemed to have any type of advantage in the fight. Ororo was much faster so she was able to land blows on the monster but the monster had regenerative ability… the monster was continuously healing itself.

The monster was also intelligent, the monster had noticed that Ororo was much faster so currently, the monster was protecting its face and neck whenever Ororo attacked. The stalemate finally broke after a couple of minutes.

With a shift lunge, Ororo was finally able to get close enough to the monster, so that she could wrap her whip around the monster's neck. With a strong yank, Ororo removed the monster's head. The huge monster's body dropped to the ground with a loud thud and its head dropped only a few feet away from the main body.

"That was somewhat tiring…" Ororo pointed out but she didn't have to work that hard to kill the monster. It would have been easier if she had used her stronger attacks, I have taught her everything I knew about lightning.

The lights finally returned in the Dungeon. "That wasn't a normal monster, right?" Ororo asked and I shook my head.

"No, it was a special type of monster which only appears if a God steps foot inside the Dungeon, since I am here with you, the monster was spawned" I said and Ororo nodded her head in understanding.

With a wave of my hand, Ororo's stats appeared in front of me. Usually, they are only visible on an adventurer's back but using a little bit of my Reality Powers and my Mind Powers, it became visible to me in such a manner. The Laws of Heaven were already weak as I had destroyed the Heavenly Force. I didn't even have to use a little bit of effort.

Just as I had thought, Ororo's stats were all SSS ranked. "Ororo, please sit down. I am going to raise your level…" I said and Ororo quickly sat down but not before giving me a questioning look.

"Is it going to hurt?" Ororo asked and I shook my head.

"No, but it could make you feel dizzy or tingly" I said and tapped the upgrade button on the screen in front of me, Ororo was surrounded by a blue light and her level changed from 1 to 2. All her stats went back to 10… or the I rank, but it was fine as she didn't lose her stats but they became her invisible base foundation.

I have decided to bring Ororo to the world of Danmachi so that she could level up to finally receive her Divinity and achieve Godhood. We were currently inside the Dungeon of Babel or the Dungeon located beneath the Tower of Babel. These 70 floors will be enough for her. Since she isn't a God, yet, she could still get stronger by absorbing Excelia.

"Wow! I feel awesome!!" Ororo exclaimed loudly and I simply smirked.

"Good, let's go and kill some monsters. What do you say?" I asked with a grin and Ororo eagerly nodded her head and both of us started to head down the hallway…
