A Highest Rank in Another World!

After that, without any objections, it was decided that the group that would command the exploration would be the A-rank group "Dragon Slayers." They are the strongest and the most experienced, so it was to be expected.

Even if they didn't accept it I would put them as leaders, so it wouldn't change much the current situation.

"So we just have to see what's in there, right?" Leofald approached me. He was tall, much taller than I remembered. It's been a while since I've seen them since they're rarely going on missions.

"Yeah, just go in there and confirm it's a dungeon. If it's one, I want you to investigate a little bit to tell what kind of monster there is in there."

"Okay, so we're on our way, we shouldn't be too long." Leofald started walking towards the city gate, and then the huge group of adventurers started to follow, drawing a lot of attention.

"Do you think everything will be okay? I have a bad feeling." As soon as the adventurers left, Rieli approached me.

"They are very competent, even if it was a higher-level dungeon, they shouldn't have any problems. Or maybe it's not even a dungeon, I'll be sad if we do all this work for no reason."

After saying that, we re-entered the guild to continue our work, the only thing we had to do now was waiting for their return. Now it's a little after lunch, if Noah's right about the distance, they'll get there quickly.

"Damn, just when we're on vacation there's a new dungeon." It's been a while since we've not accepted one mission, but since we were called we couldn't refuse, that's annoying.

"True, maybe it's not even a dungeon, I wish I had stayed home." Menjo was also whining about it.

"Leofald, what do you think?" Hewsung called me as he walked beside me, we were already approaching the forest

.

"To be honest, I don't think it's a dungeon, but we have to investigate. And even if it's a dungeon, it appeared a short time ago, when we passed through here that day there was nothing, don't you remember?"

"I think it was about three months ago? It was before we went on vacation."

"That's right, and a huge rock doesn't form in a short time. But I don't rule out the possibility that we just haven't seen her."

"Yes. But we'll know when we get there."

The group of adventurers was big, as soon as we reached the forest we had to stay a little apart as the path was a little narrow, but we were managing to advance quickly.

From what Rose said, we have to move on for 20 minutes.

"Hey, look here." As we walked, one of the adventurers caught our eye.

"What?"

"There are wild boar bodies everywhere, one monster did that?" I went there and approached one of the bodies.

"No, a person using magic, or maybe a sword, the body is in too good a state to be a monster."

"True, there are bodies all over the place, it seems that this person doesn't know he needs to take the bodies to the guild."

"Well, maybe she's not even an adventurer, but now we need to go. We didn't have to worry about that."

After that we continued walking and found some more bodies, this person who passed here certainly knows how to kill a wild boar, maybe it's the novice adventurer who found the supposed dungeon?

If it's him, this guy has a very promising future as an adventurer.

I miss the time when we were young, I miss it.

"Looks like it's true." After walking for a few more minutes, we found an open space and in the center was a large rock. There was also an entrance that looked pretty deep and it was dark.

All the adventurers approached the entrance and began to look inside.

"Let me test something." Menjo approached the entrance and created a small stone using earth magic, after that he threw it inside.

The rock bounced to the ground a few times and went down, but we never heard the sound of it hitting the bottom.

"Oh, that looks deep, let's get going?" Seeing this, I had been interested in going inside this cave, besides, I feel magical power leaking out of it.

It was a weak magical power.

"You who can use fire magic go ahead with me because I need lighting." I could use it too, but I didn't want to spend mana right now.

"Some of you who can use another type of magic, stay back and prepare for any attack, do whatever protection you're good at, just protect us if something happens."

"""Yes""" Some adventurers yelled at my order.

"And you who use a sword or a spear, withdraw your swords and be prepared for any attack. Just because it's just a supposed dungeon, don't let your guard down, understand?"

"Yes sir."

"Okay, then let's go. Light everything up." After that, three adventurers activated fire magic at the same time, creating a large source of light at the entrance to the cave.

As soon as the cave was lit, we noticed a large number of insects and mosses on the wall, which appeared to be a very old building. Also, after a certain point, a ladder had started to appear...

"I have no doubts, this is certainly a dungeon," I said as I smiled and started down the steps along with the huge group of adventurers. At my words, a good part of them looked excited.

"I've never been in a dungeon before, what's it like at the bottom?"

"I never got into one either, I was always afraid of getting lost."

"Dude, this place is scary."

Some adventurers who were behind started saying unnecessary things, so I had to get their attention.

"Listen, aren't you looking out for our protection? You idiots. What if we get a surprise attack? Now that we're sure it's a dungeon, we need to redouble our attention."

"""Sorry.""" The three guys apologized and then looked focused around us, that's great.

'They're not feeling it, are they? The deeper, the more the magic power is increasing, and that's scary.'

We had already descended a few meters and nothing had appeared, the only thing we saw in front of us was darkness. No passages, no doors, no traps, everything was so peaceful.

The only thing that made me uneasy at the moment was the amount of magical power I was feeling emanating from deep within this place. Menjo, Hewsung, and a few other more experienced adventurers seem to have started to feel it too.

"Is there something here? I only see bugs and moss, nothing else." one of the adventurers asked.

"There's something here, maybe you're not feeling it, but it's extremely powerful. But even though it's powerful, it's not something we can't handle." The magic power was powerful, but even so, I'm sure we could beat whatever was down here without too much trouble.

So we continued down.

5 minutes passed.

10 minutes passed.

20 minutes passed.

We had been walking for a long time, it was so long that I was starting to wonder how deep were we now. We could no longer see the cave entrance.

We were isolated here with only one light source that wouldn't last long.

Their mana was already starting to run out and they started to take turns to light the place, it wouldn't last for long, no one can stay that long with active magic, it's too exhausting.

But it seemed that lighting would no longer be needed.

"Looks like we've finally reached the bottom of the stairs." A source of light appeared, they were torches that had been placed on the walls of the place. A large lighted corridor was in front of us.

There were also some rusty doors on all sides.

"Isn't that weird? I've never seen a dungeon-like this before." Menjo said as he looked along that lighted hallway.

"True, this is weird." I've been in a few dungeons before, but this is the first one I've come across looking like this. This building looked like a castle abandoned for years.

But that also meant something.

This is a completely new dungeon that has never been seen before, so for sure the things you must have in here are amazing. Can you imagine the amount of money we wouldn't make if we found a treasure here?

We would never have to work in life again.. Now I'm getting excited.
