Chapter 108: CH-108 Blue Golems

"Miners to the back, cleanslers to the front, we've got monsters approaching our location," William shouted.

It seems that all the noise they had made so far had finally alerted the monsters in the cave.

Hearing his words, the miners ran away in fear, and Max, Raya, and Jasmine went in front of them, with William standing between them.

It was now time for them to work for their pay.

And before long, two blue golems with two large, clear rocks sticking out from their shoulders emerged.

The golems charged at the daring adventurers who dared invade their territory.

Not waiting for the golems to get any closer, Jasmine and Max charged at them.

~Shing~

The sword and hammer collided with the arms of the golems.

After a moment of contest of strength, the golem started overpowering Max.

But Max used his aspect ability to increase the weight of his hammer and managed to easily switch the tables, and with a single swing, he broke the arms of the golem who was trying to crush him and sent it flying away.

While this was going on, Jasmine used her size manipulation aspect to increase the size of her fist and pinched the golem, cracking its body and sending it flying even further back than the golem that was fighting Max.

But neither Jasmine nor Max let their guard down, as they knew the fight still wasn't over, as it was common knowledge that a golem will keep getting up till its core is destroyed.

As if knowing what was going on inside their heads, Raya announced.

"Guys break the transparent crystals on their backs; that's where their core is located.'

After all, thanks to her aspect, she could see the weakness of her enemy.

Hearing her words, Jasmine and Max charged forward, using skills to enhance their speed and other stats.

The golems recovered from their momentary stun and attempted to retaliate, but before they could, green whips of plant sprung forth and ensared them.

This was Raya's (Plant Bind) spell, and it created the perfect opportunity for her teammates to manoeuvre and destroy the crystals.

~Crack~

The golems crumbled after having their core inside the crystal destroyed, and like that, two B-rank monsters were killed.

"Phew!" both Jasmine and Max breathed a sigh of relief at being able to kill the golems with relative ease.

"Not bad, you guys didn't even need my help," William said as he applauded his party at their performance.

Throughout the whole fight, he was observing everything around them and was on high alert.

Thankfully, nothing out of the ordinary happened, and he was able to give his party a chance to work together and improve their teamwork.

Speaking of them, William was quite impressed by how easily they managed to defeat two B-rank golems; it seems he was underestimating them quite a bit after the last incident.

"Thanks," Jasmine muttered, almost inaudibly appreciating the praise.

"Sung, if you don't mind, please go and extract the beast cores of those dead golems." William requested the porter, whom he had learned to be named Sung.

All monsters have a core inside them, which is basically like their heart and is used to determine the rank of the monster.

These cores have a variety of uses and are quite sought after, especially the higher-ranked ones.

Hearing his voice, an average-sized young boy, looking no older than 17 with long black hair and wearing a blue track suit, stepped forward and went to do his job.

While Sung was extracting the beast core, William turned around and said,.

"As you guys can see, we're all quite strong, so you can mine with peace of mind without needing to worry about your safety."

William addressed the miners, and just like he expected, their previously scared and worried expressions were replaced with those of admiration and reassurance.

After that, the miners went back to mining with relatively no major hiccups.

A few golems showed up here and there, but they were easily disposed of by the cleansers.

William didn't really fight, as he was still paranoid about his flaw and wanted to keep his mana consumption low.

He wanted to only use his mana if something his team was unable to take care of showed up, which thankfully didn't happen.

Once Jasmine, Max, and Raya killed a golem, Sung extracted and stored the beast cores safely.

With their morale at an all-time high and nothing really threatening them, after 8 hours, all the ores in the area were mined and safely collected.

"Well done, good job guys. Now let's take a break for an hour before moving on," William announced reluctantly.

Even though he didn't want to spend more time than necessary in the dungeon, he knew most of the miners were not awaken and were tired.

Forcing tired workers to mine will just slow down the overall progression of the task.

The miners rejoiced at finally being given the chance to rest.

Their bodies had been hurting for a while, but they were pushing forward because of the life-changing money they had been promised. Read new tales at m-vl-em,pyr

After an hour of rest and refreshment, they were ready to continue advancing in the dungeon.

'I hope this dungeon isn't that big' William hoped, as the uneasy feeling he had been feeling for a while still wasn't gone. If anything, it only grew stronger the longer he spent in this dungeon.

'It's fine; no matter what happens, I won't compromise again.

William didn't know why he felt this way, but for some reason, he didn't want to let his party or the miners die because of his bad luck.

While William didn't remember about Zunesha village, his body still remembered all the trauma it suffered there and how many people he let down and got killed just because of his own incompetence and bad luck.

In a way, it was probably for the best that he no longer remembered the event, or else his personality most likely would have changed quite drastically due to guilt and trauma.

Now let's just hope that William doesn't get fucked by his flaw again, because it was highly unlikely that an outer-dimensional being was going to descend and save his life two times in a row.
