Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!

—–

Ding!

[You have supplied the Dungeon with +60000 Mana]

“And done. Now what do I do? How can I benefit from this Dungeon anyways?”

[Dungeons are dangerous but rather limited on what they can truly do. There are only two functions [Expansion] and [Creation]. By spending Mana, Dungeons can create and materialize monsters, treasure chests, and traps. And also, through the expenditure of even larger quantities of Mana, Dungeons can expand and grow larger, which might unlock new functions.]

“Huh, I see. Do Dungeons have Soul Books of their own that show their Status? And how can I summon monsters?” I wondered.

[It is possible to manipulate the dungeon through the [Dungeon Manipulation] Skill, the amount of monsters inside this dungeon is limited, however. There are certain types of Monsters that can be brought here, mostly slimes and lizards, who make upmost of the Monster Library, with varied Mana costs]

“Huh, it wouldn’t be good if I bring monsters here for the people to just suffer even more, right? Do Monsters obey me?” I wondered.

[Certainly so, thanks to your [Dungeon Master] Title Skill, you hold the authority over the creations of the Dungeon]

“Hm… Then I could build an army of both monsters and undead?!” I wondered with a smile.

I quickly remembered I had the [Summon] Skill with me. With this Skill, I would be able to summon my army of monsters anywhere I wanted!

[That’s a possibility, but after the Dungeon was half-eaten by you and then taken over, it had grown weaker, so the monsters it can summon are at most D Rank in strength]

“…Eh?!”

[Therefore, the monsters created will be rather weak. However, you can still farm them for materials to create stronger Undead]

“Oh! Wait, isn’t there a power that can modify the dungeon? Like… Didn’t my Darkness and Death Soul managed to corrupt the dungeon core or something so I can summon Undead in it?”

[Certainly, amongst the Monsters you can summon, there are a few newcomers, [Lesser Skeleton Knights], [Zombies], and [Ghosts]. However, they’re fairly weaker. Undead created in Dungeons are not the same as those you raise by yourself, as those receive a great amount of benefits. However, I would assume that thanks to your current Title as Dungeon Master, maybe your Titles could enhance them. Nonetheless, it still not possible to connect the Soul Grimoire with the Dungeon in complete synch]

“Welp, that’s tell me everything I wanted to know… For now I’ll use the Dungeon to gather resources such as meat. Is there any plants I can harvest from this Dungeon?” I wondered

[There are two Plant-type monsters available, [Carnivorous Flower] and [Trap Vine], both are not really edible, but if you’re bold enough…]

“Ugh, I get it, I won’t try it. I guess meat is good enough. And I am pretty sure that slimes are also edible if boiled, they become a gelatin that can be made into desserts. I am pretty sure some of the cakes we had use slime as ingredients. There’s also Slime Powder that can be made by drying slime, but they still won’t fill the belly as much… Hm, what to do?”

[The only monsters available that are edible and have a good meat would be the Lizard-type monsters, such as the [Dark Scaled Tyrant], the [Illusion Lizard], and the [Petrifying Basilisk]. These three seem to have what you’re looking for.]

“Huh, alright…” I said while nodding. Lucifer, Emeraldine, and Partner quickly got near me as I was assessing things.

“So you can summon monsters now, huh?” Lucifer said. “That’s a terrifying power that only Demonic Tyrants in the past were able to do… Becoming a Dungeon Master was often exclusive of powerful monsters already born in that Dungeon.”

“Eh? Demonic Tyrants? What’s that?” I wondered.

“In the old ages, even before the Demon King everyone thinks is the true evil, there existed the true evils. Demonic Tyrants are beings born from miasma. Some said that they were created by the God of Chaos, Loki, and are his aberrant children. Their power is incredible and they have the power to summon monsters and even become dungeon masters of dozens of dungeons, bolstering their forces and resources… Long ago, my grandfather had told me, when I was a mere young dragon that one of our ancestors fought against these menaces when they emerged in the world. They brought complete chaos and forced civilization to unify, differences were ignored and people of all kingdoms and nations joined together to survive this catastrophe… Thy’re also refered as Calamities, and often are born when a new Era of Calamity approaches.” Lucifer said with a serious tone of voice.

“Huh… Now that’s frightening. Don’t these guys fill the Title of “Demon King” way better than the one they name Demon King?” I wondered.

“Certainly so, the Demon King I know was a gentle Majin. He was certainly a very strong and powerful man, both physically and magically, but he was not near as strong as these monstrous aberrations of the past, which had shrouded the entire world in chaos and were said to have wiped the life out of many continents.” Sighed Lucifer.

“Huh… You say they’re born like monsters but different?” I asked.

“Indeed… You have something in mind?” Wondered Lucifer.

“Ah! I remember now! Wasn’t that spider girl is pretty suspicious?” Asked Partner.

“Oh, the one from the dungeon I am watching over, right? The one that the giant spiders obey…” Emeraldine said.

“Yes, that one!” Partner said.

“She was… certainly strange from what you’ve told us about her. And her Stats were ridiculous as well, right?” Lucifer wondered.

“Indeed… I fear that girl might… be a Demonic Tyrant, it just fits all the description.” I sighed. “I can’t really make any other reason to her existence.”

“…Well, that’s certainly something. If a Demonic Tyrant has already been born, then this probably means that the world might face another Era of Chaos, the last one was over a hundred thousand years ago, and most life in the world was wiped out due to the Demonic Tyrants…” Lucifer muttered.

“Damn…”

Things got serious out of nowhere, and I have yet to even complete my revenge!
