My Dungeon Life: Rise of the Slave Harem - My Dungeon Life – Chapter 1217-1219
Chapter 1217
“Selena, begin the battle cry.” I ordered.
She began to sing, her voice letting out an invigorating tune that would buff allies. In the end, she wasn’t intelligent enough to be a general nor physically powerful enough to be a soldier. Her strength came from being able to use her voice to buff her allies and weaken her opponents. As the soldiers were invigorated, the armies began to march forward.
The door that the portal formed in was the entrance to my dungeon. However, instead of exiting out next to Chalm, they were moving through the entrance to Gram’s Passage. In essence, the way things worked was that a magical connection formed between my dungeon and his dungeon, causing them to link during a battle and sealing them off from any outside influence.
I wanted to go with them, but the dungeon master needed to be in their boss room during such an event, so I returned to my boss’s lair. Thankfully, I could see what was happening. I wasn’t sure if it was a function of the dungeon or something Elaya set up, but I could view the battle from each of my three lieutenants. I could see them enter the long pathway of Gram’s Passage. Since this attack was sudden, there was no one waiting for us.
“We need to find out where they are keeping the rest of this dungeon,” I explained. “As far as anyone knows, the path is all there is.”
“I’ll find it!” Celeste declared, flying off down the corridor.
With her sensitivity to wind, I had confidence that she’d be able to find it. Dungeons did have some rules after all. There had to be at least some connection between the entrances and the boss room. They couldn’t just block it off completely. That didn’t mean they couldn’t make the path convoluted, even involving teleports, but at some level, it needed to be accessible. I didn’t know the reason why. It probably wasn’t a rule of the council, since there were actual physical ramifications to cutting off contact.
“What is this?” A voice echoed down the passageway.
I recognized the voice immediately. It was the Dungeon Master Gram. He hadn’t shown himself, but he was using the dungeon to demand what was going on.
“Can I talk?” I asked Elaya.
“Mm! Just speak!” Elaya grinned.
“Gram, you desired to take what is mine. Since you decided to start this fight, excuse me if I’m going to finish it!”
“You…” His voice echoed out in disbelief. “Heh, if you think you’ll be able to breach my dungeon, you have another thing coming! Do you wish to know my trick? The tunnel is only the first floor of my dungeon! The rest of my dungeon is hidden! You can look all week, and you’ll never find it!”
“Master! I’ve found it!” Celeste cried out as there was a boom.
I could see that there was a hidden door. It looked just like the wall, except that Celeste could see the flow of air and was able to discover it in record time.
“…” Gram had grown speechless after finding his best defense was destroyed in an instant.
“Elaya, Xin, attack, Astria, hold back and secure our position.”
Ultimately, Elaya and Xin’s troops were replaceable cannon fodder created by the dungeon, while Astria was using evolved fairies which formed with not an inconsiderable amount of effort. I wasn’t willing to put them into a situation where they could get hurt. I also wanted to play this safe. I didn’t want to put anyone into a risky situation where they could get hurt. I sat back in my chair. This fight was just getting started.
Chapter 1218
Xin and Elaya’s troops flooded down the stairway, breaking apart to each travel one direction down another hall. This one didn’t last. Instead, the hallway broke into a four-way split. The army broke apart further until they each reached another four-way split, and then another one. My eyebrows creased. At first, this was at a level where our army was able to maintain its strength even after breaking up so many times. However, if the groups broke up too many more times, it’d start growing thin.
“Hahaha!” Gram’s voice echoed out across the dungeon. “My second level is a massive labyrinth! This is a maze that could rival any Great Dungeon! If you wish to get passed, even with an army, it could take a day or longer!”
“I found the exit!” Celeste’s voice rang out.
“Who the heck keeps doing that?” His voice sounded slightly panicked.
“Troops, progress!” I gave the order.
“Too overbearing! Look, maybe we can talk about this. Aren’t you worried about your teammates? Maybe we can agree? If you give me the sword and retreat, I’ll return your allies.”
“If they’re still alive, we’ll find them. If they’re dead, I’ll just resurrect them.”
“Heartless!”
“Celeste?”
“On it!”
I sent Celeste to go look for them now. If Gram had any more hidden exits, Elaya and Xin would just need to figure it out on their own. I brought up my map, and I could see that as my girls traveled through the dungeon, my map was expanding as well. The audio, the visuals, and the mapping must be because I was linked to his dungeon. In essence, during the battle, my senses that could be carried throughout my dungeon could now move into his through my generals.
“It looked like we’ve conquered 30% of his dungeon. He should only have ten floors then.”
This wasn’t that surprising, since it looked like he put the majority of his growth into that passage. As for why he did it, one could only guess. Perhaps it had to do with his unfinished business. Maybe, the curse came from someone’s inability to get through western Esmore mountains fast enough. It wasn’t really important. I wasn’t trying to solve the story at the moment.
“He’s made his move, Master. We’re encountering enemies!” Elaya declared.
“Master, he’s managed to transport some to the 1st level. He’s trying to break through to our dungeon.” Astria added.
“What are we encountering?”
“Goblins, Master. His lore is weak!”
“Astria, play defensively. Elaya, push forward. Xin, clean up.”
The girls all gave their confirmation and began the next phase of the attack. Elaya’s monsters were mostly four-legged monsters like wolves, so by nature, they were much faster than Xin. She was ideal for first-strike. Meanwhile, Xin’s troops were slower, but had more strategy and could mount a prolonged attack. In short, Elaya scattered the enemy, while Xin came from behind and attacked while they were trying to reorganize.
“Master, the mini-boss has appeared!” Astria cried out.
“You guys already are on the 5th floor?” I asked.
“No! He’s appeared on the 1st floor. He’s trying to charge through my girls.”
“Let him through.”
“Sir?”
“Don’t worry about it. Just concentrate on keeping anyone else from coming. It’s time we did something.” I stood up.
“Master, do you mind if I do it?”
I was surprised to hear another voice come up. I turned back to see Faeyna looking on with a smile. Did she want to take on the miniboss?
Chapter 1219
“Ah… it’s not that I don’t trust you, but this boss isn’t equivalent to a normal level 5 mini-boss.” I explained awkwardly. “Gram’s Passage should be a level 100 dungeon, but he’s not allowed it to grow. That stored mana had to go somewhere. Since no one has ever broken past the 1st level, then this monster is likely very difficult.”
“I understand, Master, but I would still like to try.” Faeyna declared. “Master needs strong women beside him. I’m afraid I’ll fall behind if I don’t keep up.”
“That…”
“It’s okay, Husband, Matty, and I will provide support.” The witch lady spoke up.
“I will not!” Matty cried out. “And he’s not your husband! Stop seducing my mom… ahem… my monster!”
He was looking at me accusingly. Plus, Faeyna was giving me a look too. I had barely even talked to this witch. She was too old for my tastes. At least when it came to Astria and Elaya, they had an immortal youthfulness. This woman, on the other hand, looked to be about the age of my mother. It was undeniable she was cute, but I was too young to have children!
I shook my head. That wasn’t important right now. They were just trying to use such a thing to distract me so I would let them take risks without thinking.
“It’s too dangerous.”
“Master, I might be able to keep things a bit safer for her.” Alysia’s voice spoke up.
“Hmm? What’s that?”
“I’ve been thinking about it recently, and when it comes to my ability to choose my form, I believe that I don’t necessarily need to remain a weapon.”
“Huh?”
“I believe that I could become a complete armor and weapon.”
“Seriously? You could be my armor too?”
“Well, not Master. I don’t have enough material to be both your weapon and your armor. However, for someone Faeyna’s size, I could temporarily protect her and lend her my power.”
It seemed like every time I thought I had a grasp on our abilities, I was reminded that we were only just scratching the surface. Alysia was more than just a blade. She was an intelligent person with her skills and fighting ability. When I used her, she could put her weight into attacks, causing them to be much more powerful than if I struck with another blade that lacked a soul. If this translated to armor, then she could probably redirect mana and strength to areas about to be attacked, providing increased defense. It left me curious.
“Alright, then, Alysia, protect Faeyna.”
“Yes!”
The sword that had been sitting on my side glowed for a second and then turned into a ball of light which rushed to Faeyna. She had been listening, but she was still surprised and let out a cry as the ball struck her. It immediately wrapped around her.
She let out a cry as the light seemed to tear away her clothing. Her hands raised as armor started to replace her clothing as fast as it disintegrated, but it still made the scene extremely erotic, especially since she kept letting out moans as she became one with Alysia. No, that wasn’t the right way to say it. She put herself inside Alysia. No, that was worse. Was it getting hot in there? I was sweating.
This was just a magical girl transformation. Nothing strange about that. There were many strange things about that, even for this world, but after experiencing such strange things countless times I had stopped fretting about it. I recalled even seeing a magical girl’s transformation once before, but that event was a source of trauma, so I immediately put it out of my head.
Faeyna finally finished her transformation. She was now armored… yet her outfit was still completely a maid’s outfit. Should she be fighting in a skirt? Why was a healthy amount of cleavage exposed? This armor was completely impractical! I decided not to think about it anymore.
👍🏻😍 Maravilhoso, obrigado pelo capítulo.
