Chapter 700 - The Inheritance Of The Great Demon Of Dungeons
-----
Several things were happening the moment we conquered the dungeon and I went to steal the dungeon core, first of all, a very creepy spirit of the dungeon (?) or something showed up, and he began to praise an old guy that I thought was just some legend to explain the existence of dungeons in this world, but apparently the guy was more than real and he left an inheritance here. However, although I wanted to get to the juicy reward quickly, this guy was talking too much.
And he spoke a lot of things we didn't get, we were just standing there while this guy began talking as if he really was missing some contact with people, and I cannot really blame him when he has been confined here for apparently millions of years… Poor guy, and he probably doesn't even need to sleep because he's some sort of spirit or something… which makes it worse.
I pitied him a bit so I decided to go along with him as I heard his words, they were quite interesting and filled with insight about the past, apparently this guy was someone amazing and not bad at all? I honestly felt super confused so I decided to ask him straight away what did he even meant by that, but he continued chit-chatting about such things as how amazing was his master but also how stupid he was for leaving his inheritance in such a hard to access place.
Apparently, the guy had thought that if the inheritor wasn't able to break space itself he was just not worthy of his inheritance, which seems a bit ridiculous, you're never getting an inheritor like that my man, you almost got lost in history if it wasn't because of Benladann's Chaos Magic and my System that can assimilate dungeon cores and convert them into my property… Well, whatever, even though he was expecting an incredibly talented person, I don't consider myself that talented…
But at the very least by wife, Benladann, is tremendously talented and probably the best girl you can even find around the entire planet, of course my daughter comes after- no, I would probably put both of them in the same throne, they're both the best that this world can offer. I wouldn't mind calling them my queens from now on if they asked me to do it- Ah, I think I am getting too off-topic, perhaps my love for my wife and daughter should cease for a little bit before I go too crazy with my thoughts to even be able to pay attention to the complete nutjob of a spirit in front of me. Seriously, who is this guy anyways?
He says that he is a spirit created by his master but I didn't knew you could just create spirits alongside dungeons, that sounds outright broken- actually the very power of just creating dungeons spontaneously is super fucking broken, you can just make endless hordes of monsters and loot and other resources and make entire ecosystems, you're literally just a god. I guess this is why they were so dangerous and given the names of "Great Demons", because they were quite literally Great Demons on how monstrous their Unique Skills were…
Are my Unique Skills equally monstrous? Well my powers are more growth based while these guys just had just outright god-level powers from the get-go without any need for character progression, damn, talk about OP MC tags… I bet their stories were filled with excitement and having big harems or something, right? …No, I shouldn't be assuming so much out of people I've never met.
But putting things into perspective, this guy over here was telling me that the one everybody says is evil was actually a good person… So is this some sort of conspiracy theory? Was he always a nice guy but was hated for some reason? Perhaps someone gave him some bad reputation to ruin his history? Also the spirit called him "Master Takeru"… Don't tell me this guy was actually Japanese this time and not a pretender unlike Yukihime? Amazing, he was really an Isekai protagonist then, in the real flesh… I wish I could had met him.
However, I had no time to ponder my thoughts for too long, the spirit named Zero had finished praising this guy once more and Benladann and Benladra were looking at him as if they were tired of his voice and wanted to smack him, I was honestly admiring their strength of will for not doing it right now, I wouldn't blame them if they just shattered the entire dungeon core…
"Huh… Can you explain it a bit better?" I wondered. I decided to just ask him straight away what he meant by all of this, and he quickly began to talk once more, as if his entire speech about him being incredible that lasted for several minutes was never a thing.
"Well, I surely can, but let's resume it with a few words. Master was somebody that saved the world instead! In the past the world was filled with miasma and chaos after the Ragnar?k, he was summoned there by the one known as the Great Demon of Summons and used his dungeon to absorb the miasma and chaos, this is why he planted so many, so they would all suck up this evil energy, in exchange, it produced monsters, but these monsters were way less of a threat than the total annihilation of the world!"
"Huh? What? So the Great Demon of Summons summoned him?! I didn't knew there was an Isekai person that could just Isekai others, was that his cheat Unique Skill? Well now that's broken, isn't it?" I said in surprise. If this was true then could the other Great Demons have been summoned by the Great Demon of Summons for some weird reason? Well maybe he needed backup against the "threat" that Zero is talking about, which is chaos and miasma for some reason. Hm, this is getting more intriguing now…
