Chapter 29

We made it to the bank with no fuss and pulled ourselves out of the Mana water. As I stood up, expecting to shake the liquid off myself, I realized we came out of it just as dry as we had been before it appeared. Our hair was not wet, our clothes were not soggy. Magic was cool.

You have used a Mana node, do you wish to claim it? YES/NO

I had a strong feeling this was what the village wanted so badly and claiming it for ourselves probably wouldn’t be a good idea. I selected NO and turned to my friends.

“Did you guys get that prompt to claim the Mana node?” I asked.

“Yes,” Kai said. “I believe it is what the mayor wanted.”

“Yeah, me too. I didn’t take it,” Madison said. “Let’s head back to the village now. I certainly could use a bit of civilization and I’m excited to tell them about this place.”

“And get a chance to go over our skills. I can’t wait until we can get back and have some downtime to figure things out,” I said.

“Me too!” Madison said. “I have so many things I want to try out.”

“I assigned my skills right away,” Kai said. “I had been planning skill reassignments for some time though and knew what I wanted. It was fortuitous that I was able to apply the things I wanted without losing anything. It makes me wonder how rare dungeons will be if the rewards are that great.”

“Just another reason I can’t wait to get out there and explore more,” I said. “Since the dungeon is gone now, does that mean no one else can beat it? If it’s like that with every dungeon, then being the first to find them is a must.”

I popped open my Illusory Map to make sure the lake was on it and smiled at how nice it looked; it was even shiny on my map. Then something caught my eye, or rather, a lack of something.

“Hey, where did the statue go?” I asked as I looked up and confirmed that indeed, the small island with the statue was gone.

“It must have only been there to give us the reward for unlocking the Mana node,” Madison said, looking back. Then she looked at me with a half-smirk, half-frown. “So that statue, that was Minuitt, eh? Quite the outfit she had on.” She raised an eyebrow at me.

I coughed. “When I met her, she was in a business suit, not that.. Uh...” I had a feeling Minuitt had that statue dressed like it was simply to get this reaction. She was probably sitting with the Adjudicator, watching on his viewscreen and laughing. Stupid archons.

“Well, I guess you’re not the only one who’s met a god now,” she said.

“Archon, not god, they are very particular about that. Or well, the Adjudicator is anyway,” I said. “ANYhow, let’s get back to the village, I’m starving.”

We headed out, walking quickly. We expected the trip back to be painless and fast since we knew the way and the forest had been empty of, well, everything.
