Cross Dressing In A Fantasy World Full Of Magic

With the spirit dead, we had finally finished the dungeon. It took us a day and a half to beat, but I don't think it was worth it. We could've hunted more monsters without being harmed outside. Just as I felt that something had appeared.

Citrus was injured again. She had to take the heat of my magic because she was in the water from the spirit. Riley went up to her and applied some medical treatment to her.

Three pillars had shown up with the water spirit dead. The five of us could see artifacts. There were three artifacts that we got from the boss. I was wrong to say that this dungeon wasn't worth it. Just the artifacts alone could easily place me top of my year.

"Good job, everyone!" Isabelle said, smiling that we got something good out of the dungeon. Everyone was happy with the prize that we'd earned. Even Tina, who looked like she had never smiled, was feeling good about what we got.

The first item was a blue necklace with dark blue jewelry surrounded by light blue decorations on the side, we had to go back to check what it did, but it was a lovely necklace.

Unlike the first item, which was an accessory, the second item was a blue staff. It had a bright blue core on the top of the stick, and the base of the staff was whitish blue with some lovely details on it.

Seeing the prize handed out, I doubt any of us would be allowed to use any of these artifacts. Most of these artifacts would boost water magic users. At least we would earn double the price for these things.

The third item was a medical pill. Checking it out, the five of us had no idea what it did. We would have to go back to check it out.

Just as we were about to finish checking out the content of our prizes, something big happened. Above ground, we could hear loud noises. The room was shaking, and it looked like this place would collapse soon.

Citrus, who was already injured and taking medical treatment, paled even more and realized what was happening. "Citrus, what is happening?" Isabelle asked, with everyone around wondering what was happening.

"Mon...Monster Tide!" Her face paled as she gulped, seeing what was happening. Monster tide? Has the monster outside begun to form an attack or some sort? That would be bad news.

"We should stay until the monster tide is over. Otherwise, we would be in the middle of the swarm. I would say that our chances of staying alive there would be close to zero." If we went out in our current state, we would definitely die. So I would prefer if we avoid that.

"I agree, leaving is simply too dangerous," Isabelle added in her opinion to the matter. The rest of her group also didn't want to get involved with the tide.

"Then we should wait it out until the tide is over." Having that said, everyone began to set up camp. We were going to wait for to monster tide to die out. Setting everything we needed, we sat in a circle and began talking.

"With us selling everything, what place do you think it would put you, girls, in?" Without a doubt, even if I did nothing for the whole four days, I was pretty confident that I would be first. But now, with the beast tide, there might be a little of a chance that I don't.

But there will be some students that will die. I just hope Olivia and Serena aren't too caught up in this whole mess. I wouldn't even know what to do if one of them died.

"Just from the artifacts alone, we would at least be the top five team. I gotta say that I didn't expect you to vaporize the water here. Many things could have gone wrong if you didn't have enough mana." Riley, who was pretty quiet the whole time, spoke about her thoughts.

"Well, that was the only thing I could do to improve our chances of winning. You saw how it was pretty impossible to beat that water spirit with the waters surrounding us."

"Besides, Citrus would've drowned if I didn't do that." Even if I technically injured her more, she probably would've died if I didn't do that.

They couldn't really complain, seeing that her groupmate would've died. They were just worried about the risk that we took.

Riley sighed, knowing that she really couldn't complain. In the end, we did get what we wanted, and even if they had to split the loot, the artifact here was at least the third rank. Not to mention that there was a weapon mixed with it. They were pretty expensive since they gave the most effects out of every artifact.

With us talking, it was still pretty noticeable what was happening outside the dungeon. We could see rumbling still happening above us, and the noise was still there. I wondered how long with tide would last.

"Anyone up for lunch?" It had been a while since we cleared the fifth floor, and with how hard the fight was, it would make us hungry after that experience.

But I didn't want to eat fish again. Even if they tasted great eating, them three times in a row would get tiring. I had leftover meat from rank two monsters that I had killed before meeting them.

"Then let us get ready for dinner." Isabelle joined in the conversation, hearing us talk. Taking out my meat, they were surprised that I didn't take out the fish.

"Don't worry, these were leftovers from my hunt before I met your group. Also, it was tiring to eat fish constantly." I dispelled their worries about the number of points that I might have spent. The leftover that I had were pretty good, definitely better than having fish for another meal.
