"The Dungeon's monsters didn't went past C+ Rank before, but now they're as strong as B+ and above, we cannot properly handle them anymore." Said Oro, sighing, his gorgeously handsome face made the girls with us have their hearts beat rapidly. "I know we've asked you a lot, but it would be really wonderful if you could beat that big baddie for us, you guys… We'll reward you with anything you want! E-Even the rights to use the dungeon afterwards, we could even… I could go as far as dividing the dungeon's resources, all earned resources, 50% for you!"
"Eh?! My lord!"
"What are you thinking?!"
"They are a huge help but we're in an economical crisis! 50% for them is…!"
"My lord, please reconsider what you're saying!"
Some of his closest servants, which also had other political affairs within his government were shaken by his words. They had been keeping themselves in silence this whole time, until Oro began spitting stuff like this without thinking about the long-term consequences.
"Silence! Don't you realize how much they have done for us already? If this is true, the Genie himself is targeting us! Don't you understand who we are fighting against? They had done literal miracles for us already! Without them, we would be in even more of a ruin right now." Oro grew rather angered.
"The ancient evil, the failure created by the ancient gods woke up from his nap and now just wants to genocide the whole desert and fill it with deadly monsters. He has been sending them to us, targeting our weaknesses just to crush us from the inside viciously. Do you truly feel like you have the right to tell me what to do now?! I am offering them way less than I had actually planned to give away!" He said furiously, his subordinates lowered their heads.
"My lord…"
"You're right but…"
"Hahhh… I guess we cannot argue against that."
"It is true, even if its painful, we must be properly grateful for everything they have done for us."
"Indeed…"
"That's right…"
I guess things got a bit overly dramatic. The entire place was really having a hard time. And then I popped up and solver their water and food problems in a flash! I guess not many people can guess something like this could ever happen out of the blue.
"Calm down, Oro, everyone. We will complete that dungeon and take the Cosmic Stone for our friend here. We'll also take whatever we fish, hunt, and mine from there. But after that the dungeon's yours. I won't take any % of it, 100% is yours. We'll be wandering off after the Undead attack, we can't stay here indefinitely, even if this place is rather charming." I said. "I'll definitely come to visit this… this world once more in the future, but I don't need your resources, to be honest."
"K-Kireina-sama…!" Oro began to cry.
"Such a kind and nice soul!"
"She's filled with humbleness…"
"She and her friends are risking their lives yet we fought for some greedy pettiness… We are so shameless…"
"Please forgive us!"
They began kneeling. Aw come on, I just don't care about their dungeon. Actually I was thinking on finding out if there was an Ego Fragment of the Dungeons for Silva. But if it so important for them for resources and all, I am having second thoughts about it. If Silva devours the Ego Fragment of this dungeon, she'll surely grow stronger and slowly begin to "rebuild" more of her own self…
But I guess I cannot do this so shamelessly. If there's no Ego Fragment, I guess I will leave it as it is… But if there's really one then, maybe I'll take the dungeon with myself, hehe. It might just be an accident for them or whatever. Its not like they won't be able to produce tons of food now with Yggdra's presence here. Her protection alone will help them.
They indeed got a bit too greedy, I guess. Though I wonder why the whole dungeon disappears once I extract the Ego from them. Are the Egos themselves also a part of the dungeons, or much like Silva, they're a projection or the "embodiment" of the Ego through the similar skills as the ones she has? I guess that could be the case…
"Silva, do you know if there could be a possibility to leave a dungeon intact while taking away the Dungeon Ego Fragment?" I wondered.
"Hmmm…" Silva began thinking.
I already guessed she would say "dunno!" like always.
"Maybe, there could be a way if I adjust the pocket dimension that composes the dungeon itself, mama!" She said happily. "Though it would need enormous quantities of Mana, it could be possible to crystalize the leftover power and convert it into an artificial hear… let's call it the dungeon core."
"Dungeon Core?!"
So they can be created in this world!
Maybe… wait a second, am I witnessing the actual creation of Dungeon Cores?!
If these Ego Fragments are from the "First Primordial Dungeons" or whatever, this means the first dungeons had very distinct powers and capabilities than the ones I know about.
Could this mean that the Dungeon Cores came as a creation of the original Primordial Dungeons, who originate from the Primordial World, which was once made from all the Dimensions/Realities that split apart?
Huh, that sure adds deep to it, and if Silva knew about it so seamlessly, I could guess correctly that she might be awakening more "memories" or perhaps knowledge about all of this altogether.
Nonetheless, for now, there seems to be a possibility to leave their dungeon intact while I take my spoils to upgrade Silva. And the requirements are just tons of Mana? Well I've got tons. And if that's not enough, I can drain it from Luminous and Frank, my living Mana banks, heh.
Once we learned everything we could from the Seaside Treasury Dungeon, we decided to quickly depart to the Dungeon, in the way, I also decided to stop by Yggdra's main body to evolve her alongside Shadrach...
