Chapter 508 End of Life. I Think.

Edited for dramatic purpose.

More drama!

More excitement!

More Aaahhh!!!!

As expected, it is a mistake to come to this dungeon

Uooohhh!!!! Im gonna dieeeeeee!!!

Nooo-

Kyaaaa

Three-quarters of the battle-hardened [Ark] party were screaming their heads off as they desperately clung onto Sui.

As for myself

What is going on!? Fer! Grandpa Gon! Do something!!!

The reason why we were so screaming so desperately (aside from Gaudino-san who seemed stoically resigned to death) was that we had been caught up in a giant whirlpool. Thats right, the [Mizumaru] and the people on board Sui were now spinning round and round and being sucked into a vortex of death.

This is all your fault, Feeerrrr!!!!

Were all about to die for your little detour!! I- Im not sure how but Ill make you sorry for this!!

My tears were pouring sideways across my face due to the spinning motion.

Oi, are you alright? Dora-chans concerned voice echoed in my mind.

Fer is here, so it would be alright, Grandpa Gons reasonable voice sounded very irritating to my ear for some reason!

You two!!!

You flight-capable Dragon Corp dont understand my despair at all!! If anything were to happen, you could just fly awayyyy!!!

Aruji~~~ were going round and round and round and round~~ its so fun~~

Sob, sob.

At least Sui is having fun

Why are you having fun??!!!

[1] S-sui, could you get us out of here? It- its, were in big danger! Big danger! We must get out!!

Big danger~~ Sui will beat the big danger~~!!

Wait, Sui

Through Sui, I finally caught a glimpse of the source of the whirlpool. It was a mouth. A gigantic mouth filled with row after row of razor-sharp teeth.

If the mouth alone was big enough to cause a whirlpool this big, just how enormous is the rest of the body?!!

Ugh, there was an odd clattering sound and it took me a while to realise that it was the clacking and grinding of those teeth.

Gyahh!!! Nooo!!! Im gonna dieeee!!!

Am am I seeing my life flas.h.i.+ng before my eyes?

Elementary school, junior high, high school, college

My interns.h.i.+p years

The sudden transfer into this world

Meeting Fer, Sui, Dora-chan and Grandpa Gon

I may have been sucked into this world by accident, but I had been living a relatively pleasant life

Too bad, it would be over soon.

My entire future was being sucked into that mouth. My body would be crunched to death

Enough fussing, didnt I say it would be fine? Fers voice resonated calmly through my mind.

What do you mean fussing? Cant I vent a little at deaths door?! Im about to die anyway!!! Die!!!

Even as we quarrelled, the mouth was getting closer and closer at every revolution.

A-a lot has happened, but, but Fer, Sui, Dora-chan, Grandpa Gon! Im glad to have met you guys!!!

Haahhh what are you talking about? How embarra.s.sing. First of all, were not going to die here.

As soon as the words left Fers mouth-

D-dogggoooooonnnnn!!!

An enormous bolt of lightning flashed through the sky right into the centre of the vortex. My eyes were momentarily blinded and my ears rang.

For a moment, there was absolute nothingness.

When my ears stopped ringing and shadows finally stopped flickering at the edges of my eyes, I slowly unclench my grip on Suis body and looked around. The gigantic whirlpool had disappeared, replaced by a calm sea and perfect blue skies.

The [Ark] was also similarly stunned.

Round and round, round and round~~

Sui sang to herself as she slowly revolved in place.

[1] Not trusting myself to not throw up when I open my mouth, I sent a weak telepathy message to Sui, Dont that whirlpool was caused by a monster

Struck down with a single blow, excellent move, Fer, said Grandpa Gon as he looked at the calm water admiringly

Fufun

, but of course.

Hey, but what is that thing? came Dora-chans fascinated voice. I have never seen anything like it before.

Umu

,

Hmm

I dont know, but I know I can defeat it.

Y-you!! I managed to push myself up and point a finger at Fer, but collapsed soon after. However, I managed to scold him even from my p.r.o.ne position, What is that answer?! How could you just attack something without knowing what it is?! How could you be so irresponsible!!!??

U-umu

came Fers slightly fl.u.s.tered answer. I know I could defeat it even without knowing its name. Hey, Grandpa Gon, you should know the name of that thing. Its, uh, its that creature thats huge and slow-moving. Plus its in the sea, so my attack would definitely kill it.

Hmm, I think Im starting to recall, it likes to eat Sea Serpents too whenever it could get them. Lets see its called a key- no, a cape? No, no a caru, a Charybdis! Thats right, its called a [2] Charybdis!

Oh, a Charybdis, I shall remember that.

We, that is, members of the [Ark] and myself, were stunned and speechless by the casual banter between Fer and Grandpa Gon.

Unfair! Why are you two so casual while I was about to die?

Also, why would you go after a monster you didnt know the name of Ferrrr!!!???

I collapsed on my face, pressing my forehead into Suis cool body.

Gotcha~! Look, Uncle Fer~~

Through Suis body, I could see Suis tentacles rising up with something clutched at the end. The Drop items for the Charybdis?

Nuu

, its nothing edible. Just give it to that guy. What a useless monster

Aruji~?

I rolled to my side to get a proper look at the things Sui had collected from the sea.

There were three items in total.

A huge fang, a treasure chest and a magic stone.

My face immediately cramped up.

The size of the treasure chest was similar to those Dropped by dungeon bosses on the lower floors of Doran and Averings dungeons. Also, the magic stone was an XL size stone.

Even without casting [Appraisal], I could tell that these things came from an S Rank creature.

So

Hey, is that thing the dungeon boss?

No,

Not at all.

Hic, what? N-no way so youre saying that the dungeon boss would be even more

Umu

, what a promising sign. Its been a while since I have battled a truly worthy opponent. I look forward to it.

I dont look forward to it at all!!

[Gumihou: I wonder, would the dungeon boss be Scylla? A six-headed, six-legged sea monster often mentioned alongside Charybdis]

[1] I dont know why Mukouda is verbally shouting at Sui in the wind when he could do it telepathically.

[2] Charybdis -its unclear what a Charybdis looks like aside from being a mouth full of teeth at the bottom of the sea
