Chapter 96: Chapter 14: Home, Sweet Home.
To escape the torture...
Rather, it was heaven, but since sleeping with her, sometimes Anastasia would become crazy, and Kevin was constantly messaging me about work and sending pictures of his space warrior figures.
So I ran away!
When Eternia returned in her cute, flat-chested, big-assed form, I grabbed her and instantly kidnapped her into the dungeon.
The twenty-sixth floor was a little dark compared to the previous orc levels in a forest, village and arena. This floating island seemed to be a cave structure as the small Eternia with a sword and shield stood ahead of me, her hips swaying slightly from side to side.
I couldn't deny that my eyes were fixated on her huge ass, the leather armour tight, and with the laced slit in her ass for more room, so the pink flesh of her ass crack was visible.
"Is my ass that good?" Eternia asked as she turned around with a slight smirk.
She looked beautiful: the large emerald green eyes with long eyelashes, high cheekbones, smooth white skin, and an adorable smile as she looked down at me, standing straight with her hands on her hips.
Lupera had told me this was her true form and figure; honestly, I didn't mind. Her ass was nice and soft, with a firm and squishy texture, while her tits were smaller, but they were cute—a small C-cup with a perky shape and cute pink nipples.
I think it's quite sexy, but she didn't enjoy me staring at her chest.
"Ah, it's the best ass of all your sisters." I smiled as I walked over to her before wrapping my arms around her waist.
"Now then, let's get started," I whispered as I kissed her neck and hugged her tightly.
Eternia giggled softly and nodded, "Yes, Master..."
I don't know why, but she developed the habit of calling me master in this form, her golden twin tails dancing with each step as we entered the dark caverns. Eternia began to glow suddenly, meaning we didn't need a torch, which I found handy.
"Be careful, Rai, the enemies on this level are strong, just like the orc from the arena; monsters will constantly grow more powerful the deeper we go, as the dungeon has less hold over their limits and actions," Eternia explained seriously.
I nodded, readying myself with two shimmering gauntlets shining in the darkness.
However, despite being able to use the longsword or greatswords well, I felt most comfortable after my boxing and close combat skills increased to medium rank.
My eyes began to itch as I channelled my mana vision together with the dark vision, able to scan the surrounding area like magic as enemies and small critters became illuminated in my eyes; even Eternia's body heat was visible... she was burning down there haha, lewd goddess!
"Nia, there are three orcs with heavy weapons and five with shields in the next room, after a turn four hundred metres ahead of us."
Eternia looked at me curiously, smiling, "Wow, how can you see them?"
I tapped my forehead with a smile, "Mana vision, dark vision and heat vision combined."
"Umu, I need to train harder to learn mana-vision!"
We walked forward slowly, trying to kill our sound, as I suddenly had a question, "How come Asteria and Lupera don't speak as much anymore?"
"In your head?"
"Mmm."
Eternia thought momentarily, "They're not speaking because they are with the other girls right now, and if they speak, it might affect the concentration when your minds are linked."
"That means we can all talk in our minds, like telepathy?"
I paused as I looked at Eternia, wondering if what she said was true... could it happen?
Eternia chuckled, "It's possible but it takes time to develop. Right now, Lupera and Asteria can only talk to you due to our bond; the two girls aren't used to it, so they are trying to build a bond, so we kept alternating between them."
"if you try to speak back, you'll interrupt their thoughts."
"Gotcha..." I replied with a nod as we neared the orcs.
Eternia stepped forward.
Her class seemed to be some kind of tanking class, valkyrie or something.
She held her shield tightly and swung her sword, using her small white wings to propel herself towards the orcs. I rushed behind her, dashing around her, attacking the exposed sides of the enemy with powerful fists.
They tried to attack Eternia, but she was tough, easily deflecting the heavy blows with her shield or dodging with quick footwork.
Our attacks continued smoothly as we felled the first group quickly before moving forward, encountering another group with swords and shields, followed by a third group of orcs with spears and shields.
Eternia fought like a natural, and being with her felt so comfortable. When she needed me to disperse them or counter them, my body naturally moved to crush the enemy attacking her from the side.
I punched with a flaming fist, shattering the arm of one orc before smacking its face with my hand, knocking him out cold, grabbing another orc with my left hand, and crushing his neck before throwing him into the wall.
My gauntlet flashed brightly as I smashed the orc with my flaming fist, blowing off its head.
Eternia defended herself well, her movements swift, almost elegant, as she moved from side to side, blocking and dodging the blows from the enemy orcs.

It happened often now, but my level was quite high due to the huge amount of experience from grinding the floors solo; for some reason, it was unfair as Eternia didn't need to level as her attributes and level were based on me!
"Oh? We levelled! Let's take a break, hehe."
She grabbed my hand and pulled me over to a warm black stone as we sat together halfway through the twenty-sixth floor.
Eternia handed me a water bottle; I took a sip before looking at her, "How come we levelled together, Nia?"
"Well, Rai, because our souls are connected like our bodies, a very deep and unbreakable bond! Hehe, so we share experiences in the dungeon."
"I will gain stats similar to you, but it's not as fast because I'm a goddess, unlike you... so I have limits, like not being able to choose where they are allotted, and my skills can not exceed a certain rank until I reach the level cap." Eternia explained with a grin as she leaned against me.
I smiled, stroking her soft hair, "So we'll always share our experience no matter what?"
"Mhm!" Eternia answered happily.
We relaxed for a few minutes, and I checked my [Status] before we left to finish the dungeon floor; Eternia seemed happy she could now clear dungeons with me, but Lupera made me worry ever since that night with Cassandra... She stopped speaking to me or seemed to avoid me.

Something really cute about Eternia was all the gold and items she got would be given to me; she earned quite a bit from dungeons with the others and gave me all of it.
So I planned to buy her something nice in return. I wanted to spoil her, after all...
But I also noticed that my Eternal rank went up again, Bronze 3, probably because I reached level thirty. I didn't know how it was calculated and decided to ask Eternia later because we were about to continue grinding.
"Hey, Nia, do you know how Eternal rank is calculated?" I asked.
"Umu! It's complicated, but it's normally by the number of floors you've travelled or your level." Eternia smiled, "So when you hit bronze 3, it's because you reached level thirty or travelled more than thirty floors as a group."
"Why is it separate?"
"Hmmmm, because if you travel solo, you would reach level thirty much sooner, like yourself, but in a group, it takes a bit longer, and you would be at the thirtieth floor or maybe the fortieth floor before you hit that level."
"So the system takes this into consideration and averages it out?"
"Mhm! That's why Eternal ranks are weird, Rai; some people may be higher in Eternal rank but lower than your level or vice versa!"
"How do you reach silver?"
"Get to level one hundred and perform the ascension ceremony to advance your race, class and attributes to the next level." Eternia made her voice sound like the monotone system as she skipped across the dungeon, her silver sword swaying in the dark.
"What happens when you ascend?"
Eternia looked back with a grin, "Return to level one, keep your status and level to a hundred again."
This made me realise that the difference between a bronze and silver-ranked existence was too large to gap with mere buffs or cooldowns!
