When I landed, I was put in a room all by myself.
The trap that I had activated wasn’t a lethal one, it was one that was meant to isolate the ones that were caught in it.
That was why I was in a room all by myself when I finally landed.
This wasn’t a room that was that big, it was just big enough for me to take a few steps in before reaching the end of the room.
I knew that there were also other rooms that were just like this one that were all around me.
It was where the Dwarven King and the other dwarves that were caught by the trap were being kept.
But I didn’t bother with saving them right now.
In fact, it was the whole point of me activating that trap.
I needed to keep them in a safe place while I went looking for the Earth Spirit King on my own.
Since I had activated that trap, I naturally knew how to get out of it as well.
I went over to one of the walls of this room.
Even though all of the walls of this room looked the same, I knew that this was the one that I was looking for. As for how I knew, it was all because of my knowledge from my past life.
After arriving at this wall, I tapped on a few specific places before it suddenly collapsed.
This was a secret that one was supposed to discover in one of the earlier rooms of this dungeon before being trapped in this room. It was a special way of breaking out of this room.
As for why there was this method available, it was because it was part of the secret quest of this dungeon.
By completing this secret quest, one would be able to find a special item that would help with dealing with the Earth Spirit King.
Since it would solve my problem and would give me a special item, there was no reason for me to not use this method. Especially since I had already memorized the spots to tap on the wall to make it collapse like this.
It wasn’t just this wall and the door at the entrance, I had memorized all of the things that would appear in this dungeon.
If it was something from the game, then I knew everything there was to know about it. There was a reason why I was someone that had full cleared this game multiple times.
This kind of thing was only natural with how many times I had replayed the game.
After breaking out of the trap room, I made my way past the other trap rooms that were here.
From these trap rooms, I could hear the sounds of the dwarves that were trapped.
But I didn’t worry as I walked past them since I knew that it was only one way. That was how these trapped rooms were designed since in the game, one needed to hear them to know where their allies were.
However, when the allies were trapped inside of the room, they couldn’t hear anything.
As such, I made my way past them without helping them.
Though I did mark where they were so that I would be able to come back and help them when necessary.
"Now, if I remember correctly, the next item that I want to get should be in this direction." I said to myself as I turned a corner.
I knew where the Earth Spirit King was, but there was no rush for me to reach that place.
After all, I needed to prepare some things before heading over there.
It was just like I had done with Undine’s dungeon where I had prepared all kinds of things before going to confront her. If I wanted to make the Earth Spirit King form a contract with me, I had to do all of this first.
"Is this what he did while I was waiting for you to come see me?" It was a rare thing for Undine to speak to Ifrit first, but she couldn’t help it when she saw him moving through the dungeon like this.
Ifrit just gave a bitter laugh before slowly giving a nod.
Then the two of them said at the same time, "I feel sorry for the Earth Spirit King."
It was a rare moment for them to agree, but they really couldn’t help it.
They couldn’t help thinking of what had happened previously and couldn’t help empathizing with him.
Hearing them say all of this about me was a bit annoying, so I suddenly drew on their powers.
I didn’t need to, but it did make them stop talking.
After a while, I arrived at the place that I was looking for.
Though it was strange since there was only a wall that was in front of me and nothing else. It seemed like I had come all this way just to arrive at a dead end.
But I didn’t hesitate to tap a few spots on the wall.
After tapping on the wall like this, the wall suddenly crumbled just like the wall to the prison. In fact, it was actually the same technique that I used that made this wall crumble.
I had even tapped on the exact same points at this wall.
After all, this was the place with the hidden item.
Seeing the item that was behind the wall made a smile appear on my face, but I didn’t remain in this place for long. I just grabbed the item from the pedestal and then headed off in a different direction.
There was a smile that was on my face as I headed down this hall.
"There’s no time to waste, I need to grab as many of these items as I can before I reach the Earth Spirit King."
"We really can’t help feeling sorry for him." Ifrit and Undine thought when they saw me like this.
