Chapter 3- The Dungeon of Mild Inconveniences

Our first dungeon was called The Cave of Whispering Woes.

“Sounds spooky,” I said.

Luna rolled her eyes. “It’s a beginner dungeon. The only thing whispering here is probably just a cursed rock or something.”

Spoiler: It was.

⸻

We stepped inside. It was dimly lit by glowing mushrooms. A weird breeze kept blowing directly into my face. And then—

[Dungeon Notification: You’ve entered a B-Class Mild Inconvenience Zone.]

[Status Effects Applied: Slightly Uncomfortable Mood, Itchy Neck Feeling, and Random Floor Creaks.]

[Good luck.]

“What kind of dungeon curses you with ‘itchy neck’!?”

Luna grinned. “At least it didn’t say ‘explosive diarrhea.’ That’s the next dungeon over.”

I began to question my life choices.

Part: 6 : The Useless Prince

____

In the third room of the dungeon, we found a guy chained to a glowing rock, sobbing dramatically.

“Help me, brave adventurers! I am Prince Kyren of the Glorious Kingdom of Bosharia!”

Luna leaned toward me. “Glorious Kingdom of What-now?”

“No idea,” I whispered. “He looks like a background character with a budget.”

[Side Quest Alert!]

Free the Overly Dramatic Noble.

Reward: 10 Gold + 1 Royal Favor + A Headache.

We cut him loose.

He immediately tripped over his own cape.

“This dungeon is so vile, I haven’t bathed in hours. My skin is dry. My enemies will laugh at my complexion.”

Luna stared. “I want to throw him back in.”

“I support that emotionally, but the system says we get gold.”

Part 7: Surprise Boss Fight (Because Of Course)

_____

After babysitting Prince Moisturizer through traps and slimes, we made it to the final room.

“I sense a powerful presence,” Luna muttered, knives ready.

“Is it another noble in need of lotion?”

Suddenly, the ground shook. A giant chicken with fire in its eyes emerged.

A. GIANT. CHICKEN.

[WARNING!]

[You have encountered the Hidden Boss: Cluckles the Tormented.]

[Species: Demon Chicken]

[Mood: Extremely Angry. Possibly Hungry.]

Cluckles squawked once—and launched a fireball.

“WHY DOES IT HAVE MAGIC?!” I screamed, rolling to the side.

Luna dodged cleanly. “I don’t know, but it’s targeting you.”

[Passive Skill Activated: Natural Aggro Magnetism.]

[You attract enemies due to your chaotic energy.]

“What the hell, SYSTEM?! I DIDN’T ASK FOR THIS.”

⸻

We fought like our lives depended on it. Luna dashed, sliced, vanished. I threw random spells I didn’t remember learning.

[You accidentally cast “Blinding Confidence!” It did nothing.]

[Cluckles is now taunting you.]

At last, Luna landed a critical stab to the bird’s beak. I leaped forward and screamed, “CHICKEN DINNER!” before bashing its head in with a frying pan I looted earlier.

Don’t ask why I had it.

[CLUCKLES DEFEATED!]

[You leveled up! x3]

[New Title: “Bird Slayer Supreme”]

[Item Drop: Demon Chicken Feather of Fire Resistance.]

Luna collapsed next to me, panting. “If this is beginner level, I’m terrified of what’s next.”

Prince Kyren sniffled. “I chipped a nail.”
