"Yes, SS-rank dungeon. Don't worry, I have the necessary arrangements, we will be fine," seeing the boy's reaction Jill felt like he had little trust in her strength and preparations, which she took personally. Did she look like someone who would risk her life?

"Jill, you might take great pride in your prowess, I don't want to sound like a Jinx but these things tend to go wrong right when you feel— you know… 'you got everything under control'" It's not that I did not just have any faith in Jill and her arrangements but I did not want to put myself in a position where I had to test that faith.

"Will you just chill? You have nothing to worry about, I have everything under control, nothing can go wrong," It's as if Jill did not even bother to comprehend the words I just said and spoke the cursed words which I was dreading, 'Nothing Can Go Wrong.'

I know this was real life and not a movie, I am not superst.i.tious either but some things were best if not said or done. And Jill just broke that carnal rule.

"You said it, I don't care anymore. Take out of this dungeon this instant," I yelled at Jill, who was surprised by my reaction.

"Wyatt, stop overreacting—" Jill wanted to calm me down but I interrupted her shouting, "Jill, don't even bother. Please I am begging you to get me out of this dungeon this instant."

"..." Jill was at a loss for words seeing the exaggerated reaction of the boy. She did not understand why the boy was freaking out.

I am not crazy to overreact based on superst.i.tions but as soon as Jill spoke the cursed words I used my soul pupils in caution out of habit only to find that the soul energy vein which had the width of a girl's wrist had suddenly grown wider to the size of a fat girl's wrist. Was this a coincidence? I did not care, I did not want to wait around trying to figure it out. I planned to get out of this freaking dungeon as fast as possible.

"Jill, check your equipment for the width of the soul energy vein, it has increased by a few inches. Now I dare you to tell me that you have everything under control," The increase in the width of the spiritual vein could only mean that its original output has increased.

"I don't have to. I can see that the rate of soul energy gathering at the pool has drastically increased," Jill said as she started at the sinkhole at the center of the dungeon where the soul energy vein ended.

"You see my point, right? Now, hurry, take me out of here, we don't have much time" I persuaded Jill to carry me out of the dungeon I would go by myself but with my strength, I don't think I can climb out of the sinkhole that let us into this underground dungeon, that was if the dungeon monster did not get me by then. Therefore I had no choice but to rely on Jill.

This was why I had Jill take an oath to protect me in the dungeon. But I underestimate the severity of this matter, if an SS-rank dungeon were to form down here then Jill would hardly be able to save her behind let alone bodyguard a card soldier. Because of the oath that she took, she can't ditch me, that was a relief but it did not matter if we couldn't get out of the dungeon.

"Wyatt, relax, will you? I have everything under control. Even if an SS-rank dungeon were to form it would be below this dungeon so we have nothing to worry about, meaning we will not be in it," Saying that Jill summoned her grimoire and ordered her golem's, "Initiate Phantom Sword Wood harvesting in Section D and Phantom sword wood plantation in Section E and F."

Following Jill's command, the Golems skillfully harvested the 15-meter-tall Phantom sword woods in section D but left their roots in the ground so that they could grow into new Phantom sword woods to be harvested again. Then they used a part of the harvested Phantom sword woods to grow new Phantom sword woods in section E&F using something similar to the stem planting method.

Both the harvesting of the Phantom sword woods in section D and the planting of sections E&F were completed within minutes, this was only possible because of two things, a large number of golems and their near-perfect work efficiency. That was how big and efficient Jill's army of golems was. But that was not the point, Jill was up to no good here.

"Oh my G.o.d, you are stealing from the southern royal family. Now I know why you chose the phantom sword wood array formation despite the better alternatives in the market, " I said in utter disbelief then added, "You are the reason why the dungeon relocation is taking so long."

"Guilty," Jill did not even try to deny it.

Was it because Jill believed that I would rat on her Luna? It was not that she believed me but the oath I took to keep this place secret. Me ratting on her would mean revealing this place to the authorities which would be a violation of the oath I took. No wonder she did not even bother to hide or deny what she was doing.

Thinking of this I looked at Jill in dissatisfaction, "..."

"Oh, come on, don't give me that look. Now you know how it feels to be on the receiving end," Jill defended her action by shining light on me using the 'Check-in loophole' in the oath I took against her.

"That doesn't make what you are doing here legal. Do you know what will happen to you if the royal family learns that you are stealing from them?"
