Dungeon of Niflheim

Chapter 7



Chapter 7: Lap pillow

About 12 hours later

“Mmh” Frost released a moan as he slowly came too, his head felt like it was hit by a brick and his guts felt twisted. The only thing that actually felt good was his neck, he could feel something soft and warm touching it. He reached his hand up, eyes still closed. His hand was stopped by something even softer with a significant bounce. He grabbed around trying to get a feel for it.

“Eh!” A short yelp stopped his actions; the voice was familiar. Frost reluctantly forced open his eyes, with his vision slightly blurred he looked up towards the voice. There he saw Maya with quite a significant red hue on her face, her eyes showing a trace of panic. He immediately had a horrible feeling. His gaze slowly drifted towards the bouncy object his hand came across.

“Gulp!” Sandwiched tightly between Maya’s abundant chest was his right hand, still instinctively grabbing on. Colour quickly drained from his face in panic, his body filling with fear as he remembered how she looked when angry. His right hand however didn’t seem to get that memo as it continued to grope her fervently, causing a more pronounced and erotic moan to escape her lips. This in turn caused Frost to deeply blush, his thoughts escaped him, and he said the first thing that came to mind.

“M...m...morning Maya,” He managed to utter that with great difficulty. Maya in response just stared daggers at him, emitting a dreadful chill with her gaze. She didn’t say a word, yet Frost understood her intentions.

‘Remove it or lose it!’ Her message fully woke him up, like his hand was on fire he pulled it back causing her chest to shake. Her glare didn’t stop, however. Being unsure of what she meant this time forced Frost to quickly think, he already removed his hand and probably had an apologetic look on his face.

‘Hmm why am I below her?’ He noticed that he was staring up towards her and then remembered the soft and warm feeling on the back of his neck.

.....

‘Oh shit!’ He was currently receiving a lap pillow from her, and as a thank you he groped her chest. Maya’s glare grew fierier by the second, filling Frost with panic and despair. He rolled over and off her lap and away from danger, only now did he notice his body trembling. Maya had started to release some killing intent.

They were both currently in a stand-off of sorts, Frost on all fours trembling as he stared at Maya, wary of any actions she’d take and Maya frozen in a seiza position spitting fire from her eyes, still with a noticeable blush. This awkward state lasted for less than a minute, neither of them speaking, only silence.

Frost grew more and more panicked, he didn’t know why she hadn’t shouted, insulted, or even beat him for his actions, she just sat there motionless, all thoughts expressed through her eyes.

‘Wait, maybe she can’t move?’ Frost didn’t know how long he’d been asleep for. If Maya had been giving him a lap pillow for several hours, then she probably couldn’t even feel her legs let alone move.

Frost was correct, Maya had been sitting in the seiza position for the entire 12 hours, constantly checking Frost’s state as he lay on her lap. Now after being molested, she was powerless to act, and boy did she want to act. Maya was currently thinking of many ways to make him squeal uncle, her embarrassment from moaning only added fuel to her rage.

Frost understanding her current predicament tried sooth her seething anger.

“Y...you can’t move your legs, right?” He gingerly asked.

“......” All he received in return was her angry glare. Maya didn’t sense his caring tone, she assumed he was mocking her since she couldn’t move to beat his ass.

“S...sorry, how can I help?” Frost responded as submissive as possible; she was ready to blow. At first, she just continued her glaring but after a few seconds of him holding her stare with an innocent look, her anger started to dissipate. Seeing this Frost edged closer, willing to assist.

“Mumble mumble...” Maya let out a few untranslatable sounds.

“Sorry, what was that?” Frost cupped his right ear hoping to hear her better.

“I said lift me up!” In irritation or embarrassment, Maya shouted at him, a blush quickly started to fill her cheeks once again. She couldn’t feel her legs at all, she tried to stand on her own after Frost rolled away but her legs didn’t even tremble in response. She needed Frost to lift her up onto a chair so she could regain circulation. Maya continued to glare at Frost after shouting, the only difference was that her arms were stretched out.

Frost shivered the instant she raised her voice but held his ground the best he could. He looked back and forth between her eyes and outstretched arms in confusion. He wanted to help her but to do that he’d have to touch her again, although that would be blissful in the short term probably not very good for seeing him live much longer, he was caught in a dilemma.

Maya seeing Frost paralysed, unsure what action to take almost caused her to burst a vein in her forehead. She didn’t care about him touching her again, she needed to move before the pain starts. The act of trying to stand on our own started the process, the pain was starting build up.

“Just get your ass over here now!” She screeched a few octaves louder this time, revealing her urgency. This time it worked; Frost quickly shook his head to remove any unnecessary thoughts, moving quickly towards Maya’s aid.

Frost leaned in as if to hug her, so he could move her over to the closest seat. He picked her up slowly like a princess, cradling her legs and back. Maya was forced to lean close to his chest allowing Frost to get a clear view of hers and have his nose filled with the smell of her hair.

‘She smells so nice,’ quickly shaking his head again to regain focus. The closest seat was where they previously drank their tea, the beds were probably more comfortable but not nearly as close.

Frost carried her gently towards the table before placing her on the seat. While being carried Maya didn’t say a word, the instant her head touched Frost’s chest her mind blanked out. She could hear his rapid heartbeat as well as feel his well-formed muscles, now she was the one to feel embarrassed. Getting a princess carry from a prince charming, what girl hasn’t pictured that at one point in their lives. Frost couldn’t see her face due to their positioning, so he didn’t notice the fact that she was smiling while he carried her.

Once Maya was placed on the chair Frost took a few steps back, Maya looked towards him with a slight smile, no longer angry. Frost however felt that her smile was the calm before the storm.

Before he could kowtow and beg for forgiveness again, Maya spoke first.

“Thank you,” suddenly stopping mid squat, Frost became unbalanced causing him to fall over sideways.

“Hahaha” Maya couldn’t help but start laughing, Frost’s appearance was very funny, his hair was in disarray and his clothes were wrinkled. Frost felt stunned.

‘Wasn’t she angry?’ He was fully expecting to face her wrath, not laughter. Maya’s unrestrained laughter quickly infected him.

“Hahaha”

“Hahaha” the two of them laughed without restraint creating a harmonious atmosphere. Seeing that Maya had at least forgiven him on the surface, Frost felt it would be prudent to ask what happened.

“Ignoring what happened after I woke up; how did I end up on your lap in the first place?” Maya gave him a coy look when he mentioned ignoring the fact, he groped up her chest.

“Yes, let’s just forget that.” Maya decided to agree with Frost’s intentions, she wasn’t mad anymore anyway.

“Well to put it simply you tried to use too much of a power that you’ve never used before. The moment you clicked confirm on the dungeon menu your body was filled with the power of creation resulting in you falling unconscious so as to protect your body as it acclimates to the power. If I was just a fraction of a second slower, your head would have hit the floor.” Maya sighed after she recounted her side of the story, she felt exhausted, and Frost felt incredibly guilty.

‘If Maya hadn’t caught me, I’d be waking up with more than just a headache.’ Frost rubbed the back of his head as he imagined it being cracked open from the possible fall.

“How long was I out?” His vision subconsciously drifted to Maya’s legs.

‘It must have been at least a few hours for her legs to go completely numb like that.’

“12 hours, give or take,” Maya responded without hesitation.

“12 hours!” Frost couldn’t believe his ears.

“Yep 12 hours, we now have less than 2 and a half days to complete the dungeon.”

’12 hours what the fuck! I was on her lap for 12 hours and I was asleep!’ Frost was annoyed for a reason that would probably get him slapped.

‘Tch what a waste.... wait less than 2 and half days.’

“What do you mean less than 2 and half days to finish the dungeon?” The actual timing left wasn’t that big of an issue since he was almost done, the issue was that he was unaware of a time limit.

“I guess Dark God-sama left that out as well.” Maya sighed again, slowly questioning the character of her God. She touched the silver bracelet on her wrist, re-summoning the dungeon guidebook.

“Here, look through this until I can feel my legs again.” She tossed the book haphazardly with more strength than needed.

“Thud!” The book slammed right into Frost’s chest, he caught it, but the impact knocked the wind out of him.

The book was no thicker than an inch and was A4 in size, but it felt incredibly heavy. The cover was simply black with white text, no adornments, or pictures to make it more appealing.

‘Dungeon guidebook’ the title was incredibly basic and to the point. He opened up the first page and began reading religiously, Maya would probably want a decent break, so he planned to inspect the book through and through.

Maya watched Frost flick through the guidebook with purpose, bringing a smile to her face.

‘This should make my job easier.’ She rubbed her legs trying to encourage circulation.

Frost read the entire guidebook; it took him over an hour to reach the point that he was happy, understanding the major points it covered.

Concerning his so called time limit, it wasn’t exactly a time limit per say but if he didn’t finish the dungeon by then it could be an issue. 3 days after being born each Dungeon core’s dungeon will open to the public aka adventurers. Luckily however there was a few pieces of important information to prepare for it as well some key dungeon management notes.

· Although the dungeon will be open to the public, the core room (where the core is currently placed, at the end of the third section) will be protected by an impenetrable barrier for the 1st month.

· The guardians assigned will not take part in battle unless your life is in jeopardy and in that case, they shall only do it once. They will train and teach you how to fight on your own.

· Every 24 hours (one day) you’ll receive a set amount of dungeon points from the local mana vein, the larger the dungeon the more mana it can absorb.

· The next family gathering will be in one months’ time.

· Any purchased traps will reset every 24 hours (as long as no intruders are present within said trap) for free, but DP can be used to speed up the process.

· Guardians are currently arranged to be by their core’s side for the period of one year (365 days), but this may be altered.

· Intruders killed within the dungeon will release 10 times their normal daily DP level.

Frost looked over at Maya once he was finished, the part about her leaving in one year was difficult to accept.

‘Hopefully, it gets altered,’ he clenched his fist when thinking that.

“So, you up to speed now?” Maya leisurely asked him after seeing him close the book. Her legs were fully healed after the break, she even did some light kicking exercises to make sure.

“Yeah, should be,” Frost now knew roughly the same amount of information about dungeons as Maya. They were now equals or so he hoped.
