After taking a good long break and resting up, Vance and the girls began their descent down the stone steps. One would think that the passages between the floors of the dungeons would be more relatable to the floors they were on, but in fact, they were not. The stairs leading down were made out of brick and looked man made while the entry room was also the same. Why this was Vance did not know, so even as they descended the stairs and the girls asked about these things, he had no answers for them.

As soon as they entered the starting area of the second floor, Vance could tell the monsters on this floor were not going to be to the girls' liking at all, especially Alice, who hated spidragoons.  "Okay, from this floor on, we will need to be even more careful. There are many different kinds of spidragoons. From normal ones to trap versions that will hide in dark cracks that we will not notice and sneak up on us and ambush us. "

"Why!" Alice cried out as she got her bow ready with a small pout on her lips. She really disliked this!

"Alice, please do not shoot at every sound you hear…." Vance had a feeling this girl would be sending arrows in all directions without actually taking time to see if she was actually shooting anything!

"I will take the rear. Alice, you go in the middle." Sally knew this was the best position. While she also did not like spridragoons, she was not as bad as Alice. She could at least deal with the situation at hand.

"If you get attacked at all, please yell out and watch for webs." Vance had already looked at his quest shop in hopes of a cheap anti root item, but he found nothing useful. So it would be for them to move when the spiders shoot webs. Getting hit with webs was as good as getting taken out of the fight and dragged off. Only fire would be able to really deal with them. And currently, only he could cast fireball here.

"Geh! I don't wanna! Vance, let's just settle down and have many babies, okay?" Alice asked in a cutesy voice while blinking her eyes over and over, trying to be as cute as possible. "Ouch! Sally!"

"Alice, don't try to force Vance to do something like that when you know his goals." Sally did not want Vance to give up on his own goals just because of fear.

"I know! I was just joking." Alice sighed and took a deep breath. "Let's go! The sooner we get out of this place, the better!"

Vance reached out and patted Alice's head before passing through the visible green thin membrane that blocked monsters from entering the room. Alice and Sally quickly followed behind him. It did not take long before a spidragoon appeared, and as Vance expected, Alice screamed and began firing off arrows, and ice spears left and right.

Vance did not do anything. Alice easily killed the spidragoon before it could do anything. The first thing to drop was actually some spidragoon silk which was something Vance had been wanting to get his hands on so he could make some armor for everyone. While it can be used generally to make mage cloth armor, if one were to use it as thread, it would add bonus effects of magic resistance and intelligence and mind to the armor it is used on. It is something he had to figure out on his own through trial and error during his time of trying to get the most bonuses from crafted armor.

Crafted armor was some of the best armor in game until you got down to the raid boss fights at endgame. Then there were just some items that would out do anything you could craft. But now that Vance also had the NPC shop, he was hoping he could get even better things. A small cheat that he could hand out to others was always nice. But the points to get something like that were a bit over the top. He really did not know how long it would take him to save up all those points.

The group made their way down the passageways until Vance suddenly spotted a wooden door on one of the rocky walls of the cave. "Treasure room or Trap room…."

"Vance, what do you mean?" Sally asked.

"The door here can be one of two things. Once is a treasure room where if you are lucky you will open the door to find a few treasure chests that might have a few decent items in them. The second is a trap room where you will find a treasure chest sitting in the middle of the room. The traps are different each time, but the worst is the teleportation trap which teleports each person in the room to another area by themselves. You then need to fight your way back to the trap room. There is the wave monster room where you will need to fight hundreds of monsters at a time and even the good old mimicgoon chest. Come on. We will see which one it is." Vance did not tell the girls he could figure out the kind of room it was just by opening the door.

"Vance…. We should skip it…." Alice was all worried now. But Vance shook his head as he said: "If we run away from every little thing, it will be bad. Alice, half the spidragoons were killed by you alone. You have high health and many health potions. With your crowd control spells, you can solo very well. I am more worried about Sally being alone than you since she needs to fight at close range to maximize her damage."

"Fine! But if I die, I will haunt you!" Alice threatened as she shook her fist at him.

Vance chuckled and bowed as if he was a knight and said: "If I were to be haunted by such a beauty then I would be very grateful. Do not worry, I will be sure to have many children with Sally to make up for your share."
