We searched the whole room from top to bottom but still found no way to access the power source that was powering this basement floor. The other floors did not have power at all, and this one floor alone was enough to take up the two city blocks. I was not sure about the other buildings, but I did not see any stairs leading down to this basement level from another building. “I think I found something!” Sei yelled out from across the room. Everyone was split up on each side of the room, so it took us…

“Thank you, X7.” I gave my thanks. He had helped some of my worries. “It is my pleasure to be of assistance. But if I may ask. When you said you would take me from this place, were you telling the truth?” X7 seemed to be more sentient than I had thought. Maybe the many years of loneliness had gotten to him, so he had learned to gain a bit of self awareness. “Yes, I would not lie. I see no point in you continuing to stay here. I will only store your way in my inventory for a short time, and when…

“Human? No, I am not. I am X7 serial code 238745. I am nothing more than a humble android.” X7 replied. An android…. I walked up to X7 and looked him over, and even poked his face. Everything about him felt real. As I did this, the girls all watched me with great diligence, as if they were waiting for it to attack me at any moment. I could have told them that it was fine, but this was a good chance to let them learn to always be on guard. “How long have you been in operation?” I asked. Since it…

“If that is the case and they are all as powerful as Azengrade, wouldn’t that mean we are all in serious trouble?” Adel asked. “To be honest, yes, if that is the case. But we do not have enough to go on. He could be a special case. Someone who fell through a hole and arrived here by accident. For all we know, something could have gone wrong on their planet, and the stories and cities of that world turned into separate dungeons that are now appearing in our world. But this also still leaves a lot…

I stared at Adel in amazement. I never thought she would want me to keep my ideas to myself. I figured she would be all for sharing it with the kingdom to develop, but here she was saying that I should keep it for myself. I smiled and shook my head. “I will only be giving some things that will not upset the balance too much. But only after I come up with proper safety measures to keep the technology I hand over from being stolen by others.” “If that is what you want to do….” Adel pursed her…

We headed upstairs, where we were met with a small reception area by the elevators that had some vending machines and a few places to sit. When the girls saw the vending machines, they looked as if they were looking at some kind of alien artifact. “What is it!? What are the things inside?” Surprisingly the vending machines had packaged food in them. But this was also good. I was hoping that maybe just maybe, I could get a sell by date. I walked over to the machine and put my fist through the glass,…

I continued to search the desk and found another cell phone tucked away to the side. This one was locked and had very little battery life. But it would come in handy for taking apart and seeing how it ticks. I searched the entire desk and found nothing more of interest. I was kinda hoping for a newspaper of some kind but found none. I could only hope to find one up on the top floors. But I did figure out that I was wrong about the building. The company was some kind of technology company, and the things I…

We retraced our steps throughout the entire house. But when we still found nothing, we headed outside to see Iena and her group sitting there chatting. “Anything?” “Mmm…. Come take a look.” Iena replied. I nodded, and the group and I followed Iena to an area with tall grass and a fence that barely stuck out above it. “The fence seems to be the same as the wheatfield. It was the only spot that we could find that did not bring us back to the house. It’s strange, every time we reached a certain…

“Before we do a full investigation, let’s just check for any enemies.” I decided this would make things not only faster but safer as well. We checked the whole house from the second floor to the basement. This time there was no apparition or any clues like that left behind that were easy to find. “The house is empty, so let’s split up. If you find anything that looks off, grab it if you can pick it up. Otherwise, call for us to come take a look.” “On it!” Adel said while saluting me for…

A few hours later, Iena and her group arrived with crestfallen faces. “What’s wrong?” “Master! You have no idea! We walked and walked and walked for hours on end, and then suddenly, we found ourselves at the entrance of the dungeon again! I hate this place!” Iena whined and stomped her feet, causing me to chuckle. “Thank you for the hard work,” I said with a smile as I walked up to her and patted her head. “But everything was not in vain. We have found something interesting.” I said…
