Chapter 300

While Tsukasa, Line, Lefiya, and Alicia were dumbfounded when they heard there was a murder happening on the 18th Floor, Tione explained what had happened in the beginning.

After the failure of the expedition, the Loki Familia needed money.

Leaving his office job behind, Finn brought many of the members of the Familia to the dungeon to get money.

Whether it was Riveria, Ais, Tiona, or Tione, all of them also joined together to get money since they were at red.

Still, even with the 150 million valis, Tsukasa had given, it wouldn’t be enough, considering the Loki Familia had to prepare for their second expedition. They also had to get more weapons, armor, and many other magic items, so this time, they could have a smooth expedition.

However, when they arrived on the 18th Floor, they were hit by trouble since someone was killed.

The one who was killed was someone from the Ganesha Familia, and he was also a Level 4 adventurer.

The death of the Level 4 adventurer wasn’t a joke, and it was a huge matter. After all, unlike those low-level adventurers, Level 4 was a high level, and someone who could kill such a person definitely wasn’t weak.

What was even more dangerous was that the killer was still among everyone on the 18th Floor living together, which caused everyone on this floor to be wary.

Still, even Tsukasa was dumbfounded and felt strange because of how the level 4 adventurer died.

The level 4 adventurer was found dead in his room, beheaded, and his head gone.

As for how the level 4 adventurer died, he was found dead when he was about to have sex with a woman.

It was also for this reason that all the women on the 18th Floor were called since the people in this place hoped they could find the culprit among the women.

However, while everyone was talking about the killer, Lefiya squatted down, writing something with a wooden stick she found on the side while shaking her head from time to time.

“….” They glanced at Lefiya for a moment before they decided to ignore her.

“Has the killer been found out?” Line asked.

“Not yet.” Tiona shook her head.

Tsukasa didn’t say much and looked at the crowd for a while before he put his attention to Finn, Tione, and Riveria. Then, when he saw Riveria looking at him, he smiled.

Riveria also nodded in a calm manner, but inwardly, she was so happy and wanted to jump in his direction right away. However, she couldn’t allow herself to lose her image and prestige in front of everyone, especially when there were many elves in this place. After all, as a high elf, it was still necessary for her to keep her image.

Still, Tsukasa approached them without hesitation since he missed Riveria, but before that, he reminded Ais about someone suspicious. “By the way, don’t you think that person is suspicious?”

They followed the direction where his finger pointed, and they saw a demi-human with a brown-colored costume, seemingly panicking before she ran away.

Ais chased after this demi-human girl without hesitation since she felt something from her.

“…” Everyone.

Tsukasa looked at Ais for a moment before he said, “I’ll talk with Finn first.”

They nodded and followed him without hesitation. As for Ais, they believed in her strength, and with her strength, it was impossible for her to be hurt.

However, Lefiya still decided to follow Ais since she was worried something would happen to her, and she also wanted to reaffirm her love!

“…” Tsukasa.

—

Finn, who was in the middle of a thought, didn’t notice Tsukasa and kept murmuring, wondering whether there was something weird about this matter.

Tsukasa walked to Riveria, but Tione greeted him first. “You have come back.”

Frankly, his relationship with Tione could be called okay. They were friendly, but they weren’t that particularly close like lovers. Instead, they were like friends. However, it was a normal thing since Tione was crazily in love with Finn, and he wasn’t greedy for her body.

While Tione’s body was good, it was still far compared to Demeter.

Tsukasa might be okay to accept anyone’s challenge if they wanted to, and if Tione wanted to try, he didn’t really mind, but he also wouldn’t focus or be obsessed with it since it was too tiring to do so, especially when there were many women around him.

Still, their relationship became closer when Tione also joined in to help her train with the boxing training he taught Tiona.

“Yeah.” Tsukasa nodded, then asked, “Have you found the culprit?”

“Not yet.” Riveria shook her head.

“I have heard the culprit is a woman, right? So have you checked all the women here?” Tsukasa asked.

“We have done it, but we haven’t found it.” Tione shook her head with a sigh, feeling quite depressed since she couldn’t help Finn.

“If you can’t find the culprit among the women, how about you try to find it on the guy?” Tsukasa asked.

“Huh?”

Hearing his question, everyone looked at him dumbfoundedly.

“What do you mean by that, Tsukasa?” Finn quickly asked since his thumb had trembled for a while, and he just didn’t know why he felt this. However, one thing was for sure. He could feel a danger that was about to approach them. Still, Tsukasa’s words intrigued him, and he wanted to know the reason why Tsukasa said that.

“What’s the use of checking on the guy? The culprit is clearly a woman!”

Tsukasa ignored the middle-aged man and just talked with Finn. “I heard the head of the dead vanished, right?”

“Yeah.” Finn nodded and asked, “So what’s that have something to do with it?”

“It’s just my guess, but probably the killer uses the face of the dead as a mask, and dressed as a guy, so she can fool all of us,” Tsukasa said and caused a chill in their hearts.

However, they couldn’t deny him since that possibility was high!

“Bors!” Finn quickly looked at the leader of the 18th Floor, Bors Elder. They had been searching among all the women, but they couldn’t find the culprit, so the only possibility was the one that was said by Tsukasa!

“I know.” Bors nodded with a heavy face since there was no way he could live with a crazy guy who would mutilate the face of the dead and use it as a mask!

The order was ready to be announced, but an accident had always happened!

The whole space trambled, and everyone had a hard time maintaining their balance, but at this moment, everyone was attracted by the monster figure that appeared so suddenly.

“OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!”

With a loud scream that could burst the eardrum, a figure of a monster on the bottom half and the body of a woman appeared, letting out a creepy scream.

Watching this monster, Tsukasa thought he needed to solve this matter as soon as possible.
