558 Time to let go

Phil was happy to see Dilan like that and he asked him as he stood up and held out his hand to help him up: "There are other purple dungeons of this level not too far from this one, do you want to do another one or is this one enough for today?"

Dilan accepted his hand and after standing up, he said: "If you're sure about their level, then I'm willing to do another one with you, but if you want us to do this during our evenings, I'm going to need more legendary grade healing potions, and maybe a better weapon too."

Phil nodded and then he conjured up a sword identical to his own.

The blade was made of Corium and had been impregnated with black particles and as he handed it to Dilan, he told him: "Use this one for tonight, it's much more powerful than your current sword, and if using a weapon impregnated with black particles makes you uncomfortable, you can always ask your son-in-law for a new weapon, after all Caleb must have an impressive collection of weapons, I'm sure that he will definitely have one that you like."

Dilan was really curious about how it felt to hold such a deadly weapon, and so he took the sword Phil was handing him and he was surprised by the power it gave off.

H immediately felt all his Stats increase a lot and the sword in itself was light and easy to handle, so he told Phil with a beaming smile: "This sword will do just fine, no need to bother Caleb, he has more important things to take care of."

When he saw Phil frowing he asked him: "Or maybe you need your sword back... If that's the case then..."

But Phil suddenly put two fingers on his lips, shutting him up before telling him: "Of course you can keep it if you like it, but don't say that Caleb has things more important to do, you are his family now, he will feel hurt if you say something like that... I'm sure he will be more than happy to give you a weapon."

Phil then added while caressing Dilan's lower lip with his thumb: "And I don't like it when you always think that other people have better think to do, why can't you see how happy they will be to share your burden or help you out."

Dilan felt his heart racing and it wasn't because of the fatigue of his last fights, Phil just said what he had always dreamed of hearing.

After loosing his wife, no one had been able to catch his interest, but Phil was different and kind of direct, even if he didn't say it, Dilan could see that he was being serious with him, so maybe it was time to let go and see if it could work between them...

He then said, when Phil finally remove his hand: "I will keep that in mind, but your sword is already so powerful, I don't think I need another one..."

Phil just nodded still looking at his lips, so Dilan said before forgetting why they were there: "Let's continue then, even though I don't need to sleep much, I still need to rest, and we'll need another 2 or 3 hours to loot another dungeon."

Phil then regained his senses and he cleared his throat, before motioning to Dilan to follow him and he said while leading them to the dungeon boss room: "Don't worry, Dilan, if you get too tired before the other dungeon is over, we can always leave before we finish it. n0velUsb.C0m

Don't forget that there is no obligation to finish it, unlike the red dungeon where once inside the only way to get out is to kill all the creatures inside.

You should hear the Warriors Spirits talk about it, they too love to loot dungeons, and they even make bets on what kind of creatures they will face in the next one."

Dilan smiled and he said to him: "I guess it isn't easy for them to find opponents strong enough to fight them, so of course looting these dungeons has to be exciting for them.

After all, the Warriors Spirits came into existence so they could fight the Gods when the Priests, except for Miguel, had all been killed."

Phil nodded, since he and Blaise had decided to put themselves at Ian's service, who was for him unquestionably the future King of the Drakonits, even if Ian didn't seem to want this title at all, he had learned a lot of things he didn't know about the Warriors Spirits, and he really respected them for what they were.

They weren't interested in money or power, all they wanted to do was to protect those who couldn't do it on their own, and make sure everyone lived in peace in their worlds.

Phil and Dilan continued to talk, enjoying their time together, until they reached the boss room of the dungeon and Phil, as agreed, let Dilan give the coup de grace to all the creatures in this room so that he could gain a maximum of experience points.

Then, after cleaning the room they left this dungeon and Phil led them to another one which had an equivalent level and this time it was a purple dungeon filled with insects that could use the earth element.

There were ants, earthworms, slugs, snakes, beetles, and all of them were over two meters high.

It was Dilan's first time fighting these creatures but since Phil was there to watch over him everything went well.

Phil was quite happy to have stumbled upon these creatures because he was able to teach Dilan how to use the black particles that his sword contained and since Dilan could use it at will, as long as he had enough chakra of course.

So, he taught him how to create a shield to counter the earth spells that were coming at him, and he showed him how to create small black arrows that he could throw, and after a few tries, he could throw them up to 50 meters around him.
