Chapter 28

Off to the Dungeon We Go

Jeremiah had suffered through a fitful night of sleep and was up at the crack of dawn. Regu had insisted that he get a good night’s sleep before they set out for the dungeon, but he didn’t feel any more refreshed than when he’d gone to bed.

He left the Manor House and checked the settlement map in his Civic Menu to see where Sabrina was. She showed up as a green dot, the only one, as both Trainers showed up as blue dots. She was in the Alchemy Lab.

The citizen map was a nice feature, but Jeremiah knew it would be difficult to keep track of a large number of people if or when Midnight Mountain grew into a village or city. But for now, it was pretty easy to figure out where anybody was at any time.

Sabrina was leaning over a table with her back to the door when he entered the Alchemy Lab. The concoction she was attempting bubbled and steamed, but any fumes were collected by the ventilation hood over the table and vented out of the building.

Jeremiah waited for her to finish what she was working on then approached the table. “I’m leaving for the dungeon and wanted to make sure you didn’t want to accompany me. It will be a good way to gain more experience.”

She looked at him sideways as she poured the green liquid she had concocted into potion vials. “Or get me killed.”

“It won’t be that bad,” he insisted. “Regu says the dungeon hasn’t fully developed yet, and most of the monsters will be at a lower level than in a few weeks. There won’t be a better time to do a dungeon dive.”

“I’m not going to ride your coattails,” Sabrina said. “I need to make my own way in this new world. Philanthar says I need to make sure I can take care of myself.”

Jeremiah huffed. “Phil is just upset because Regu whupped his butt.”

She frowned at him—her Trainer hated being called Phil. “Maybe, but that doesn’t mean he’s wrong.”

He started to protest, but Sabrina held up a hand to stop him. “Look, I am no worse off than you were when you made Level 10 and became the Premier Elite. In fact, I am probably in much better shape. I’ve already battled dozens of monsters and have the settlement to help protect me.”

She smiled at him. “And I have the Alchemy Lab, which I’m already using to create potions.”

Jeremiah pushed down the objections he really wanted to make. He knew he wasn’t going to change her mind, so he decided to focus on something that might be hugely beneficial. “Make any good potions?”

“The lab still only has three recipes, but I can create E Grade potions now. And now that the lab is Level 2, there are five E Grade potions of each type created every day.”

A dozen vials with a green liquid suddenly appeared in her hands—apparently some she had made as well as those created by the Alchemy Lab—and she gave them to Jeremiah.
