The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

Rein had visited the country of Wu before but that time he was busy with some other matter and this place was just a temporary resting spot on his way, so he did not spend much time here. So now he wanted to enjoy everything that this nation had to offer alongside his dear lovers.

So, the conquerors teleported to a city called Prosilia which was close to the border of the country of Wu and decided to officially enter the nation from there.

There were actually no rules that banned adventurers from traveling to different nations without going through the check points, but getting in through an official route also had its own advantage. So Rein just decided to take the least troublesome option.

After crossing the border without any trouble, Rein suddenly found himself in a troublesome situation. After crossing the border, he was suddenly invited to the lord\'s manner of this city and the lord was currently prostrating before Rein.

Rein told him to stand up and tell the whole situation in detail.

This lord was named Kenta Tatsuya and he was a minor lord under the supervision of a great lord. Just two days ago, one of the sons of his master demanded to marry his only daughter, but as that man was infamous for being a playboy and insincere person, he did only agree to the proposal.

His daughter also already had a sweetheart in her heart so this was an easy decision for him for his daughter\'s happiness.

But the lord\'s son was not happy with just giving up after getting rejected once. So he tried to take action in the dark. Last night, their estate suddenly got attacked. There was also a powerful gold rank person attacking so Kenta was forced to take action.

Using his absence, another group of powerful people suddenly broke into his own residence and kidnapped his daughter under his nose. He had been using all his forces to search for her till then but to no avail.

So, when he heard that a mithril rank adventurer had come to his city, he immediately wanted to ask for his help. Searching for missing people and hunting criminals was also something that adventurers did. So he wanted to ask for Rein\'s help.

With the help of a mithril ranker, he had some hope of finding his daughter. He also promised to take care of any problems that would arise from the great lord. Kenta\'s relation with the great lord was very good and he was sure to take his side instead of his useless son.

So Rein just needed to find his daughter and bring her back.

After thinking about it, Rein decided to take this job. He was not in any kind of hurry so spending a little time here and there was not a problem. He also felt bad for a father like Kenta and wanted to help him out.

This job was actually quite easy for the conquerors. Kenta had informed them that the chance of the kidnappers still staying in the city was very high as he had used his authority as a lord to block all the ways that led to the outside of the city.

So, Stella just used her Eye of Clairvoyance to take a look at the whole city and soon she was able to find a hidden secret room under one of the taverns of this city.

After asking Kenta about it, they were told that the tavern belonged to a prestigious family and it was an old and well known establishment of this city. He had never expected that this famous place would be associated with the kidnapping.

Rein immediately transformed Kagura and attacked that place. He found that this tavern was a place filled with powerful individuals. There were even three gold rankers here. For a city of this size, the gold rank represented the peak of power, so it was quite a big deal.

The three gold rankers protecting this place were all quite infamous. One of them was a master swordsman and a samurai called Basen. He had lost his job because he tried to rape a girl and after that he had joined a criminal gang and did whatever he wanted.

And as he was quite powerful, he was able to get away with most of the crimes he committed.

Another one of the gold rankers was a girl named Asaka, who was a talismancer. She was like a mad scientist when it came to researching talismans and she had no moral limit. So she started to use various kinds of blood to draw her talismans.

That included the blood of pregnant women and even the blood of a justborn baby.

Her obsession was getting out of hand, so the family where she was working asked for her execution. She then joined this large criminal organisation to find a safety net and continued with her inhumane experiments.

And the last gold ranker present here came from a hidden ancient clan. He killed his brother to take the family property and when his crime came to light he was exiled from the clan.

This clan had a secret technique that allowed them to harness the power of beasts in the form of tattoos and using that technique this man was at the peak of gold rank in terms of combat prowess. He had tattoos of a bull, a lion, a hawk, a serpent and a cheetah. So he was an allround powerful person.

All three of them were evil people but with good talent. With their strength they also had nothing to fear in this border city. But their luck was very bad as they became obstacles in Rein\'s path.

...

Rein, Stella, Tasha and Kagura were able to easily defeat all the criminals and were able to enter the caller hidden under the tavern. The scene that welcomed them was so horrifying that all the girls\' faces got twisted in anger and disgust.

There were both males and females trapped here. All of them had been tortured sexually and quite a few of them were even completely broken mentally. All of them also looked malnourished and had several wounds of various types on them.

Rein and Stella started to heal them with their healing magic of various elements while Tasha and Kagura started to search the hideout.

As Kenta\'s daughter Sayuri was caught not long ago, she was not tortured in any way and was just thrown inside a special prison that had concealment formations drawn on them.

After healing all the captives and escorting Sayuri back to her worried father, the conquerors started a meeting. The information that they gathered from the hideout was terrible and they wanted to do something about it.

The group which was behind all this was a criminal gang called "Phantom Abyss". This was the largest and most dangerous gang of this country and they had various bases in various cities. It was not a small criminal gang and instead it was a large evil criminal syndicate.

They did all types of criminal activities one could think of, from murder to kidnapping, from smuggling to slave trading, there was no crime that the members of this gang had not committed.

Now that Rein knew about this gang, he was very much willing to wipe them out to get rid of a filth from this world.

All the girls were also in support of Rein\'s decision. They were also quite upset after seeing what this gang did to these innocent poor girls.

Even though all four members of the conquerors were not saints but all of them were at least good people who would not mind helping someone if it was not too much trouble. And just like that the destruction of the "Phantom Abyss" gang was set in stone.

After making their decision, the conquerors immediately started to take action against this gang. To increase the efficiency, they also decided to split up into three groups. Actually they could have split up in four groups but Kagura was completely unwilling to stay away from Rein.

So Rein and Kagura stayed together while Stella and Tasha separated to destroy the bases of these gangs in many different cities.

In just two days, they managed to destroy most of the major bases and rescued over ten thousand people. This gang really had very deep roots and many lord families were found to have a relationship with them. But the conquerors did not mind those things and just destroyed it.

After getting rid of all the larger bases, they next started to target the smaller ones. The very last place that Rein targeted was a carriage that was carrying a kidnapped girl.

This was the most recent job that this organisation took and after getting rid of these people, the gang named "Phantom Abyss" would almost be completely wiped out.

And that\'s how Rein and Hikari had their destined meeting.
