" Bloody hell, " Akira commented as he started firing at the undead ghosts that were charging at them.

Gunshots rang out in the corridor as Akira fired at the undead ghosts with his newly created shotgun, which he had made from light magic. Although he could make a modern gun, he felt a shotgun was more appropriate for this occasion.

After all, it's always a man's childhood dream to one day become a Ghostbuster and slay away ghosts with a massive shotgun.

After a few rounds of firing some light bullets, Akira put away his gun. He had finished cleaning up every single enemy that was present. He then looked at Gildarts, who was rummaging through the remains of the now-dead ghosts.

" Oh, it seems these guys are the souls of some dead villagers. " Gildarts said as he stood up.

" It seems we have come across an ancient slaughterhouse, which was disguised as a temple," Gildarts said as he looked around again. This is the conclusion he made from all the evidence he now has.

Akira almost wanted to correct him on that mistake, but think about it: what Gildarts said wasn't actually wrong.

" Well whether it is a slaughterhouse or a temple, it doesn't matter. " Akira replied.

Gildarts shook his head at that. " No, it makes a huge difference. If it was a temple, then the most we could expect are some monsters and some undead ghosts. But if it is a slaughterhouse, then there might be some high-ranking undead beings.

"And unlike these guys, those high-ranking undead are very dangerous, as they can even use magic and have intelligence," he explained, adopting a teacher's role.

" I see. " Akira nodded. He really didn't think about it like that. This clearly shows how inexperienced he still is.

' Maybe going out on a quest with this uncle isn't so bad after all,' Akira thought as they continued to walk forward while being wary of any traps.

On their way, they continued to meet with hordes of undead ranging from zombies, undead ghosts, undead monsters, and such. And every group seemed to be a little stronger than the past group, confirming Gildarts's guess that there is an advanced undead being.

What's more, they could also feel the air around them getting denser and denser as they went deeper. The gloomy aura is practically overflowing, and it even made the atmosphere a bit chilly.

Finally, after walking for another 20 minutes or so, they came across a huge door. There were carvings of a large snake on the door. The door was like what you could expect to see before a boss fight.

"Well, Akira, you might want to sit out on this one; the guy behind that door is someone you can't handle alone, " Gildarts said with a serious voice. He could sense danger emanating from that door, which is a telling sign.

" Okay " Akira didn't try to argue as he accepted what Gildarts said. For someone to even make Gildarts a bit wary is certainly not something he could manage.

Seeing Akira agree this easily, Gildarts was a little surprised. Weren't kids supposed to be stubborn and unyielding? But he kept those thoughts to himself as he readied himself for the upcoming battle.

Gildarts walked in front and pushed the door with most of his strength. The years of abandonment seemed to have sealed these doors very tightly. The doors made a creaking sound as they opened.
