"I've decided—I will be your servant!"
"Wha–whatttttt?!" I was shocked that I couldn't speak for a moment.
"Mino, what are you thinking?!" I asked her in suprise.
"I've decided–"
"I know," I intercepted her. "If you really want to serve me, come to the dungeon tomorrow."
"Alright!!" Mino exclaimed with excitement.
Suddenly,
"I want to go too..." Emilia spoke up.
"What do you–"
"I want to go too..."
"I get it! You can go with us!"
I massage my temple before speaking up. "This time, it'll be more people there. I have to conseal my identity before going."
"Nobody–" Emilia tried to speak but I shut her up by putting my hand on her mouth.
"Because I am a Royal bodyguard, people would freak out if they see me." I explained to both Mino and Emilia.
"I see..."

. . .
The next day in the morning, at the Granbell estate.
"Eh... Why my body so heavy?..." My eyes flatter open as I felt heavy weight on both sides of my body.
I quickly removed the blanket and saw both Mino and Emilia sleeping next to me.
I was so shocked that I wasn't able to speak.
"Mino, Emilia, Why are you guys?" I wake them up shaking their bodies.
Their eyes flatter open and as soon as they wake up they both placed a kiss of my cheek.
"Wh—whaaaaaaaattt?!" It makes me feel hot on my cheek as I blushed from suddenly kiss.
At that moment,
"Raiden, Good Morning..." Elizabeth came in and saw my state. "Raiden..."
"Wait, Elizabeth I can explain..."
She immediately left crying. "Waaahhhh!!! Raiden is sleeping with gurls other than Cherryyyyy!!!"
There was also Satella but she just glared at me. "Disgusting..." She said and left.
My... Reputation is— destroyed...

"Gosh, those two..." I stand there in the bathroom, washing my face. After that I glanced at the mask beside me.
It was a pretty white Kitsune Mask with red lines. It's so ...beautiful that I don't want to stop staring.
I put it on before looking at the mirror again.
"Looking great!!"
I dress myself like an adventurer would.
"Black undershirt? Check! Black long pants? Check! Black upper shirt? Check! Cross necklace? Check! Pretty kitsune mask? Check! Excalibur? Check!"
But the thing is this... Black cube. But I will take it anyway just in case.
I go to the front door, I already see excited Mino and Emilia at the front.
"Let's go."
We all went to a adventurer guild and made a card for both Mino and for my alias as well.
"That would do."
"Thank you Master!" Mino said in excitement and gratitude.
"Then, let's go meet up others." I say as I adjust my mask to its place as it's a bit tilted.

We arrived at the dungeon and saw our group. Eren and Leon wasn't there because of their school work.
"You guys are the last members?" A mascular dude said.
"Yes, I guess."
"We've already defeated the boss in floor 10" He said. "How about we all introduce ourselves first?"
"My name is Lucia. I'm rank D. Necromancer class." A guy with glasses start. He looks the same age as me. According to my analysis, he is average but who knows.
"My name is Eru. I'm Rank C-minus. Electric Mage." That's a girl who looks same age as Mino, I mean she is not 100 or a thousand years old. Like she's only 20-25.
"My name is Lucas Darkeruth. Rank B-minus. You commoners! I'm fire mage!" That cocky little Noble guy I think. He's strong but yeah his morals are shit.
"My name is Marcus Minatan. Rank B-minus. Healer class. Don't mess with me!" Another cocky guy. And a healer, that would be handy.
"I'm Kai Ranga. Rank C-plus. Tank class." This guy is a Tank okay.
"I'm Gan. Rank A-plus. Earth Mage class. I'm the leader here." That's the same mascular guy who welcomed us. He's pretty damn strong.
"I'm Mata. Rank B. Wind Mage class." I used this alias because of a footballer. I think.
"I'm Mino. Rank A. Fire mage." I made her that adventurer status to lower her reputation. And that hurt her pride a little bit.
"I'm Emilia Granbell. Rank A. Water mage." Emilia is already an adventurer huh? And A rank? That's wonderful.
"Then, let's go, Shall we?" Gan said.
.

. . .
We progressed from the 10th floor as we wonder around in a group.
"May I ask you why are you wearing a mask, Mata?" Eru asked me, curious.
"It's because there's something personal I don't want people to know."
"I see." She nods. "But you talk like an old man, how old are you?"
"Fifteen."
"Fifteen and rank B?!" I wasn't even B-minus right now." Eru was surprised like I dropped a bomb.
"That isn't the case."
"I guess you're right."
Suddenly Gen stopped us in middle of the track.
"Hold on, this 11th floor is awkwardly quiet."
"Isn't that usual?" I asked.
"No, Mata that isn't usual."
Yeah, this place is too eerie and awkward. Like that quiet before a storm strike.
Suddenly, I felt a sharp stinging smell that made me fall on my knees.
Crap, my mask enhanced my smelling.
"Are you okay. Raiden?" Emilia came to me and asked.
"I smelt something... Crap—Gen put on the barrier!"
"Huh, okay." He slamed the floor and a huge mud barrier appeared.
We heard banging noises from the other side and then.
With degrees of couple hundred, the mud barrier melted and formed a hole in the barrier.
"That's..." We all froze as we felt a terrifying aura of some mana beasts. Their machnical sounds piercing.
"Fuck, thats a scorch golems!"
