YM778.TV Chapter 118 As Expected (3)
"Hey, Jake," Lana said. "You should get some sleep while you can. The sun will soon rise, you know."
As he had promised, Jake spent the night fighting while the girls took turns to rest and help him. At first, Karina stayed for quite a while, but she lacked and stamina for some reason, so she stopped around midnight and went to sleep.
"I am fine," Jake said.
Even by himself, Jake could take down ten salamanders at the same time. The only problem was the fact that he would have to rely on Flames of Wrath, and while that was useful, it wasn\'t that much fun. So, he only had to endure some pain to be able to do so, but even that wasn\'t a problem since his resistance against heat and fire was increasing at a fearsome speed.

Jake nodded to himself in satisfaction since he had made a lot of progress in the last few days. As expected, hard battles are the most fun since they also increase his strength at the same level as the difficulty.
"I get Sleep Resistance or something like that, I bet that I can go without the need to sleep for a week," Jake said.
"You are heading to an early grave at that pace," Lana said as she was watching the sky clearing on the horizon. "While we need the power to find Luke, I think you are a bit going too far with that."
"I really don\'t want to find him, I am just finishing these missions to find more fun ones," Jake said.
"But you said to Karina…" Lana frowned.
"I am just being a nice teammate," Jake shrugged. "Since you two are eager to find a way home."
Lana sighed. Even if Jake didn\'t have many things connecting him back to Earth, that level of abandonment was really something else. Fortunately, she knew that he was stubborn as a rock, so arguing wouldn\'t lead them anywhere.
After their breakfast, the group began to prepare to enter the dungeon. While Jake was liking his progress, he had some other business to attend to. Kicking the ass of Rick for sending an assassin to kill him was one of them. However, Jake didn\'t know if he should kill him or just traumatize him like he did with Justin and the bodyguards. That was also the matter of what he should do with Karina… she didn\'t do anything until now, but Jake won\'t wait for it.
"I really think we should wait until you get a better shield…" Louise said. "We have time, so…"
"… For the last time, it is fine," Jake said after a long sigh. "I put some extra layers of salamanders\' hide around my shield, so they should last for a while. "Besides, the boss won\'t have the chance to use fire for long if you attack them constantly with ice magic. Let\'s just do our jobs the same as usual, and then we will succeed."
Truth to be told, it would be better if they waited for another day. With that extra time, Jake will probably make the Flames of Wrath have a longer reach than the Flamethrower of the salamanders. However, he doubted that the boss would have the same reach as the ordinary monsters.
Once the group finished their preparations, they entered the dungeon. Inside the dungeon, they changed their strategy a little bit. When the salamanders appeared, Louise blocked their path with Earth Wall, and then Jake charged for kicking it and then making it fall on two of the monsters. While that wasn\'t the best way to use the spell, the monsters still suffered the same amount of damage that the wall could endure. Thanks to that, the wounded Salamanders just needed another attack to put them out of their misery. As for the other monsters, Jake and Karina dashed toward them before they could open their mouths and split their heads near-instantly with their skills. The remaining six salamanders tried to burn them alive, but those two blocked the flames with the corpses and then approached the monsters. However, who attacked next was Louise with Cold Winds. In a matter of seconds, the monsters became unable to use fire since their bodies got covered in ice. It was all thanks to the extra mana Louise stole from them. Thanks to all that, they finished the fight in less than thirty seconds.

"It is kind of annoying when Jake\'s battle plans go so well…" Lana said.
"Get on my level, little college student girl…" Jake crossed his arms and then said that with a smug smile on his face.
While that annoyed Lana, she felt more troubled since Jake could be that smart when he didn\'t even attend high school… Lana knew that there exist many types of wisdom, but why does someone so annoying have to be that smart when it comes to fighting?
Nevertheless, the dungeon could only be so big since it was made of rocks and in a pretty unnatural way, so they found the last room of the dungeon after just a couple of minutes. In that place, they finally found why the dungeon was emitting smoke… in the last room of the dungeon. They found the last salamander, but not only that. They also found some pits of lava, and they were constantly causing small explosions and making the lava spread around… that will be hard if someone gets touched by those…
