Ryan woke up while feeling his face being licked by something, and when he opened his arms, he saw Furball near him covered in blood. While his eyes weren't showing any violence or hunger, he sure looked ominous.
"Hey there, buddy," Ryan said. "I hope that you aren't trying to make my meat tender by licking me all that much."
When Ryan got up, he noticed that his clothes were almost gone. Thanks to it, he recalled the last events… he even recalled Femradiel using Teleport. Still, it looked like he didn't escape unscathed.
"It looks like you saved our asses, Femradiel," Ryan said. "… It is hard to admit, but I messed up this time. To think that Poseidon would have minions powerful as that…"
Ryan expected to receive a scolding, but he didn't hear anything. The silent treatment was something… However, Ryan soon realized that something was off.
"Come to think of it, buddy, why are you outside of the dungeon?" Ryan asked as he turned around and saw hundreds of corpses of monsters.
Furball was covered in blood because of those monsters. It looked like he protected Ryan while he was unconscious. As expected of his loyal squire… such thoughts disappeared from Ryan's mind when he saw the corpses of Banshees nearby. Femradiel didn't reply, the banshees managed to move quite a bit away from their dungeon, and lastly, Ryan recalled that he was losing power in his draconic form when those weird guys erected a magic barrier.
Ryan checked his status, and he still had Draconic Transformation and the other things he received when he made a pact with Femradiel. Still, for some reason, only Draconic Transformation couldn't be used. He tried to summon Femradiel's familiars, but Ryan failed. He couldn't even feel their presence, not even Femradiel's.
"Shit… don't tell me," Ryan bit his lips in annoyance. "Their plan was to capture Femradiel and make me lose my powers? No, their ultimate goal was to kill me by weakening me, but… Shit! Shit!"
Ryan not only lost a reliable ally but also a massive boost in his powers. His first thought was to invade Poseidon's domain and then kick his ass. Still, since he failed at defeating a single one of his minions, that was impossible.
"Shit, why… didn't I lose those skills?" Ryan suddenly frowned. "The pact hasn't been severed when they managed to take away Femradiel?"
If the skills were there, then it means that Femradiel still was alive. That was weird… why those guys didn't kill her? Ryan recalled that she didn't have a physical body, so that was probably the reason. She couldn't be killed because she wasn't exactly alive. Regardless… those guys made sure to take away her spirit since Ryan couldn't talk to her.
"Fuck… such a mistake from my part," Ryan said and then kicked the ground. "It is okay, buddy. I will bring back our friend, but for the time being, you will be the one to guard this place… it seems you are already strong enough to do that."
