CHAPTER TWENTY
Females Be Crazy Yo!
The couple failed to return for multiple nights. I spent my time building up numerous monsters in the arenas and the triggers to switch them out, as well as building up a collection of skill stones in a new treasury sorted by skill types. It was oddly satisfying to see hundreds of copies of each skill stone all labeled and marked across shelf after shelf. I made my skill hall room into a long tunnel lined with shelves. I built it with a plan for a long and prosperous future.
When they finally did return to challenge my arenas, their night of dungeon crawling was cut short when Romeo found Shortstop standing around inside my vestibule waiting for Lady Lizard. She had just finished the third stage of my magic challenge, a fun problem involving hitting a set of three targets with your own ranged spell. The Chieftan-to-be used it as a chance to practice her new spell, and I was impressed with her quick progression. I had included all of Tresâ memories of the spell, every quirk, and improvement, everything he had, and apparently, she was learning from those memories. Itâs like riding a bike, just because someone tells you about how to ride does not mean you know how to ride, but expert instruction helps. Direct memory transfer is probably better than expert instruction even.
So Lady Lizard is making her run, screwing around a bit blasting away trying to improve, her targeting being a tad skewed, when Romeo stomped into the vestibule. Shortstop showed the lizard equivalent of surprised guilt, but then returned to a neutral face. Romeo started screaming at Shortstop, his multi-colored tail bouncing around from his agitation. Shortstop just stood there stoically and listened until there was a break to which he made some comment which left Romeo practically apoplectic then silently fuming.
When the lady champion finally returned to the vestibule, she had the view of both lizards staring her down. If she had been blonde, human, and a valley girl the reaction would have been a toss of her hair and ignoring the stares. As it was, she raised her jaw into the air, turned on her tail, and marched toward the hallway of challenges.
Romeo was having none of that and cut her actions off by rushing in front of her while hollering something. Shortstop seemed resigned, but she wanted to challenge whatever Romeo was saying. Her arguing devolved into fuming and a childish look. The love lizard triangle trio then marched out of my gateway before Romeo roused some kids to guard my door. I had a feeling that I would not be having any further dungeon crawls, at least for the foreseeable future. It was too bad since it had only been here for twelve days total.
Spending the next eighteen days here without any challengers would be useful to improve my dungeon, but relatively dull. Luckily, 'bored' seems to be an emotion that dungeons are immune to.
While the next few days were uneventful, I decided to try and contact Coldona again.
