Dungeon Maker

< Chapter 13 # 2 >

&

I'm exhausted.

The body twitches.

The newly absorbed essence replenished the consumed magical power, but was lacking. I just felt a greater thirst as if I had swallowed the water of the sea.

But I couldn't fall.

If I fell now, it would all be over.

Fighting with your life was extremely exciting.

It's not just winning or losing, it's a series of minutes of life and death.

The excitement of surviving rises.

The bright red light that filled the front of my eyes and the piercing scent of blood in the tip of my nose increased my heartbeat endlessly.

But I had to calm down.

Even though the body would burn hot, the mind had to stay cool.

You absorbed the essence of Forest.

Stronger. A little, but recovered magic.

I thought for a moment that I was getting up. I caused a green flame to steal everyone's gaze, and I counted it in the square that made it so.

You defeated the enemy leader.

Perhaps the most powerful foe in this dungeon, Forest, no longer exists.

Gokun, presumed to be the guardian of Forest, was also bleeding from his neck.

The number of Orcs left is ten inside.

Considering the number of enemies who had invaded the dungeon, it was truly a great victory.

But the dragon has not fallen into error.

When discussing victory, not only the number of enemies killed, but also the damage of allies had to be considered.

Katrina, lying on the ground, flinches. I couldn't get up, and my mouth was full of vomited blood. Tears poured out endlessly in my eyes because of the excruciating pain.

Clay Golem has been destroyed. Perhaps the moisture in the mud that constitutes the body of Clay Golems has frozen, leading to non-destructive destruction.

Skull breaks his pelvis and can't get up. The rock golem was also halfway through, and Salamander, who had used up all his energy from the beginning, sighed exhausted.

The crouching cobalt in the corner has not always been the right power. The Goblin Jon is dead, and the other three Goblins also feel half exhausted for a short period of time.

You see Eligos stagger and stand up.

The dragon takes a step forward, rolling its eyes once, all of them in sight.

I straightened my back and stretched my shoulders. The small gesture seemed to scream, but I swallowed the pain.

I could feel everyone's eyes gathering. The Orcs are stuck.

It must have been the shock caused by the death of Forest and Hochrist Orc Berserker Gokun.

The battle is not over yet, but it is not over yet.

The dragon turns around. You hear the sound of it swallowing dry water behind your back.

The intact Treant stares at the Orcs instead of at the Dragon Hoe. It was a commendable response.

With the orcs facing away, Dragon Hoe approaches Katarina on the ground and lowers his posture.

“Catarina.”

“W-we…. ”

Katarina hasn't finished her sentence properly. I felt like I was trying to smile, but I didn't do it right at all. It turns blue because of the heat around the abdomen hit by Forest. Breathing seemed to be difficult.

Yongho didn't say much. Katarina taught me the greatest lesson in defeating the Forest. If it hadn't been for the crossbow arrow fired at the last moment, it would have been Yongho himself, not Forest.

The dragon slowly places his hand on Katarina's abdomen. It was very soft but cold. The Hangi, like the curse of Forest, seems to be pulling teeth at Dragon Hoe as well.

Yongho accepted the cold. The cold air of the porus swallowed along with the absorption of essence aids the dragon lagoon in its power. You neutralized the cold in Katarina's abdomen.

Subsequently, the dragon used its palm to enchant Katarina.

It was a hybrid of Dark Elves and Circubus, but Katarina was also a Horse. She embraced the magic of the dragon like a sponge and gained power from it.

Katarina's expression changed comfortably. I closed my eyes and dozed off.

Yongho vomited a breath of relief, but very little. It would have been really dangerous if the essence absorption hadn't made Yongho stronger. As Gaju got stronger, the traits of the enslaved workers who became stronger together saved Katarina's life.

I wanted to spend a little more time with Katarina, but I couldn't. Yongho is back on his feet. Eligos looks at you, and he reads the dragon's mind and nods. It meant he was fine.

The dragon, who felt thankful and sorry for Eligos at the same time, turns away.

The Orcs are still motionless. Odd tensions and silences fill the room, not to mention tension.

Everyone's gaze was still drawn to the dragon. Dragon took a step to get his gaze straight. As Yongho approached, the Orcs reacted slightly differently. Some grasp the weapon, and some still stare at it with their eyes narrowed.

Yongho stops in front of Jon and Joon.

John and Ron were staring at the Orcs with their spears, and the Goblin Ranger's red spot, Jun, was weeping with his heart broken, watching Jon die.

Yongho sees Yon with the power of evolution.

Luckily, before he died, his evolutionary skills reached 100.

Dragon Hoe lays his left hand on Jon's head. You poured out your remaining magical power and upgraded Yon to Hobgoblin.

The power of evolution.

A bright light rises from Jon's body, just as all the other servants have.

Ascendance was not an exaggeration, even if it was a change in species. Large changes in the skeleton itself were close to the reconstruction of the body.

Yonn's wounds heal. I recovered my calm, although my breath seemed to be irregular and short-lived.

Joon saw the dragon in emotion and joy, just like the person who witnessed the miracle. John and Ron, who kept worrying and looking back, couldn't hide their excitement.

The Orcs reacted as well. Some opened their eyes wide, and some I didn't even know existed.

It wasn't like healing magic. What happened before was something else, something more transcendent.

Dragon has risen from his seat. I suppressed my desire to look back at the skull making a low skull sound and stared at the orcs. It's only a few moments away, but you put rust on the almonds again.

The number of Orcs standing up with weapons is seven.

If they were all equal now that Foras and Gokun are dead, it would be difficult. It was much better to have one leader.

Fortunately, one of the surviving Orcs was placed as an implicit leader.

I was able to distinguish between them quickly because I looked back at the Orcs so that other Orcs would flourish.

An Orc with a knife to its eye. I was wearing some old but well-groomed armor, and I used a very large scale weapon.

Dragon made eye contact with him. I opened my lips and took a moment. He hoped that there would be no split or weak voices.

“The fight is over. ”

I didn't mean to look cool. I couldn't think of more to say.

The wounded orc looks back at the corpses of Poras and Gokun once.

Dragon Hoe did not erase the case from his mind, saying he would avenge his master.

You don't look away. I managed to hold on to what I wanted to settle down quickly.

The Orc closes his eyes. You breathe out slowly enough to be cautious, then open your eyes again to see the dragon. I put down the road I was holding on to the floor.

“I've lost. I surrender. ”

When the wounded Orc decides, the other Orcs stagger and put down their weapons. The man who hesitated until the end, too, looked at the wounded Orc once, and finally threw his weapon to the ground.

Now the fight is really over. But at least I couldn't fall down until I tied up the Orcs in front of me and put them in jail.

Luckily, Eligos stands beside the dragon. He was relatively healthy, even though he could have been hit by the same force, thanks to the evolution of stamina specialization.

Eligos has ordered the Goblins and Treants to restrain the Orcs.

The wounded Orc looks at the dragon with slightly droopy eyes, and the dragon nods as if to be relieved.

“Skull.”

The dragon glances at the small voice. Skull looks at the dragon, unable to get up from a broken pelvis. I felt like Skull was having a good laugh because of his mood.

Then I heard a voice in my head. It was the soul of a dungeon that could not intervene due to an urgent situation.

[You have won the first dungeon battle among the Gaza owners.]

[It was really cool.]

It was a cute voice that seemed to ease the tension I was struggling with.

Yongho nods once. Once again, I took a long, long breath.

First dungeon battle.

It was the victory of the dragon.

&

The battle of dungeons in the horse kingdom meant a battle between Gaju and Gaju - the Demon Kings who owned the dungeon.

Fight to defend the dungeon, to take it away.

The battle for the dungeon brought great danger.

To a dungeon defender, defeat meant the loss of the dungeon.

Nine lives were lost to Gaju who lost the battle, and even if he survived, he placed them in a wandering position, losing both dungeons and servants.

The attacker's side is unable to tolerate defeat. The dungeon battle was essentially a defensive battle. Because of this, the attacker usually spends more resources than the defender.

What if all the resources poured out like that go to waste?

I didn't lose the dungeon I owned just now, but I was forced to reduce the defensive power of the dungeon.

The Magic Cuisine is a world of drunkenness.

Enemies from everywhere reveal their teeth in this weakened gap.

Given the situation, dungeon battles have not occurred surprisingly in areas densely populated with rugged households like the Southern vacancies. It was natural to lose everything in one fight.

Dungeon battles often occur at the borders of powerful Demon Kings.

The Demon Kings with many dungeons under their command did not lose everything in one fight. I was able to continue the next fight, whether I won or lost the fight.

One of the five directors of the Dungeon Chamber, Samael's fastest wings forcefully opened his sleepy eyes and watched as he preached to the palace wall.

Her office is very cramped. Despite being the queen of the Harpies who freely roamed the air, she did not like flying, and used more black wings as backrest cushions than flying.

“Too many. ”

I was not referring to a dungeon battle that took place like a monthly ceremony at the border of the six kings.

The Southern Hemisphere is strange.

There have already been more than ten dungeon battles in the land where there should only be a dungeon battle once every few years.

The Demon King Embrio has suddenly begun to grow in power in the north of the void.

It was the principle that the Dungeon Chamber was not involved in the battle between the Demon Kings. However, that didn't mean that he would just let go and watch.

What will happen if Embrio continues to expand? How will the Southern space, which has been at peace with each other for more than a hundred years, change?

Households in the Southern Hemisphere were clearly weak. The vacancy was also a wasteland with no progress compared to the other six kings' lands.

However, if someone were to unify the entire Southern space, the story would be different.

Samael closes his eyes and heads back.

The southern vacancy was Citri's area of responsibility. Is she aware of this situation? And do we have a way to control this situation?

‘Whatever's behind this...' ’

Samael stopped thinking. After all, Citri was the longest mover in the Dungeon Chamber. Of the five directors, Samael was not the one to worry about.

If she was silent, there must have been a good reason for her silence.

“Next.”

Samael speaks, and the spirit of the dungeon delivers a few reports. The five directors of the Dungeon Chamber were households who owned their own dungeons before becoming merchants.

When Samuel received the report, he stood up. As you leave the cramped office, a large cavity appears. The tower seemed to fit within the cavity, just how high the ceiling was.

Samael takes a step back. I used space diving magic instead of spreading my wings, and arrived at the most glamorous and luxurious place in her ‘territory’, including the dungeon.

Dungeon Merchant Auction House.

A place to trade things that are too expensive and rare to sell at a price point.

One more step, the white dress wrapped around Samael's body. It was a plain dress with no patterns, but it made Samael's beauty stand out.

Samael takes a few more steps. Her servant and general manager of the Dungeon Auction House, Incubus Road Carrot, approached and gracefully presented her example.

An auction house reminiscent of the Opera House is currently underway.

A two-way inspection of the commodities currently being traded.

In his own world, he was an exceptional prosecutor, even called the Sword King.

Samael came to the auction house himself, not because the prosecutor in this world was that great.

It was because of the people who are currently at the auction house.

The king of arrogance and the agents of the king of Jill.

There were also agents of the king of the riots at the auction.

The king of Jill could not have known that he had recently bought 20,000 Skeleton Warriors.

It was a secret that the Feast Lord bought the Bone Dragon, but the other two kings were not fools. They were always looking out for the king of violence.

The kings did not come in person, but even under their command, those worthy of entry into the fifth place took their place. This was a small surrogate between the six kings.

Samuel thought as he stepped inside the auction house.

Called the greatest superpower in the Dungeon City Hall, Aurobas said the balance of his work would last for a long time.

But do you really think so?

None of the six kings settled down at this time. None of them were satisfied with their current position.

Small instrument.

Something that would make a perfectly engaged cog go awry.

If that happens. If something happens to push a domino that's completely stopped.

The balance will fall like a lie.

Just like in the days of Mamon, king of greed.

There was a clap inside the intestine. Maybe one of the surrogates offered out of common sense at the end of the chicken race.

Samael hastens to his feet. I erased from my mind what had suddenly occurred in the Southern space.

I had an elegant smile that fit in a pretentious place.
