Chapter 21: Scorching Rays and Into the Foyer https://i.ibb.co/DmRDQ7k/Forsaken-Minotaur-Sheet.png The bullish creature stood as tall as a semi-truck. It huffed from its nose and started charging at the group. Elanore noticed that the hedges behind the creature ended in a dead end. I guess this guy is supposed to get us to run towards the right? That must be why it’s so much higher leveled than those raptors. She remembered the average level of humans, and her theory became more likely she surmised. “However, you’ve chosen the wrong opponent today,” she said with a smug grin, “for now you will face the wrath of a pink star.” She pointed her staff forwards towards the Minotaur, and she channeled her magic. “[Scorching Ray]!” The expected sorcerer spell did not come. She’d tried to use a lower level spell just in case. Instead, a pink ray of light flashed from her staff. It was a blazing pink fire, and it started with a small hue and grew larger. It became an enormous beam and shot forwards. It was all-consuming, and the Minotaur was eviscerated in a flash of brilliant pink. Not only that, the beam scorched the surroundings. Walls of hedges evaporated, and half of the maze disappeared in an instant. At the very least, the distant manor was protected by a barrier, repelling the after effects. At the center of the maze, a fountain split in half, and all of the water inside evaporated. What used to be brilliant hedges and grass was now a crater. The other half of the dungeon rushed to start repairs, but thorny vines beneath the surface were reduced to bits and pieces of their old selves, failing to regenerate. It was a complete and total dungeon malfunction. Elanore stared in awe at her own spell’s aftermath, and she clenched her teeth together when she looked at Naela’s disapproving expression. “Hey! I had no idea that it would be so severe!” “Really? You had no idea? You just obliterated most of this floor! The dungeon can’t even respond to the damage! Mistress…” Elanore rushed to hide behind her floating cauldron, and the Pot came to her defense. “As expected, our majesty is much stronger than any dungeon. That minotaur didn’t even turn into an item.” Elanore looked inside of the crater where the Minotaur used to be, and she had an urge to cry. My precious loot! Naela sighed. “Mistress, you really need to learn some restraint. Not even I would do something this bad!” “I was exercising restraint! That was only a Journeyman level spell!” “Ahah, a Journeyman level spell? And executed by what? A Divine level vampire?” Elanore shook her head and looked across the maze at the manor. “Hey, before we entered this maze, you said we could simply fly over it. Well, I created a path straight to the the place. You should be praising me, instead!” Naela blinked several times and placed a hand on her forehead. “You are supposed to be the mistress, but you’re the one that needs looking after the most. I thought that this contract would make my life easier.” “Did you think that you would get to laze around while I fed you all of the time or something?” “Yes.” Elanore struggled to contain her laugh. Instead, she started walking towards the entrance of the white manor. “More importantly, I find it interesting that this thing had a barrier to protect it.” The vampire marveled at the design of the structure. There were curved, white stairs going up to the place, and windows were all along its exterior. She could see red curtains along the inside, draping the window seals. Though, one thing about the windows gave her pause. Despite them being clear, she couldn’t exactly see inside of them. Tall wooden doors made up the entrance, but there was no way to see into the place. She wrinkled her brow at the manor. She noticed a pair of golden rings hanging from each of the wooden doors. Each of them ended with a carnotaurus head at the bottom. The vampire’s eyes widened. She hadn’t even noticed the earful she was receiving from the wyvern. She turned around
