Chapter 592
“Ladies… ladies!” I stepped up just before the girls started a brawl. “I said… I love you all, no matter shape or size.”
Although it was a scummy line that should have gotten me kicked out of the room, with the power of my charm and harem affinity, it seemed to have an effect on the girls. However, before anyone could say anything else, a voice broke into the conversations.
“Th-that’s right!” A booming voice caught everyone’s ears.
There was a giant sitting on a massive throne in front of us. That was the giant dungeon boss I had conquered on the 30th floor. I had teleported everyone straight to the boss room, where it looked like the giant had managed to set up shop. Actually, standing next to her was the siren, who was also nodding in agreement while looking at me with loving eyes.
“Eh? You two! Aren’t you my dungeon’s bosses! What are you doing here?” Elaya cried out.
“Hmph… Master gave me pleasure and made me feel like a woman. So, I naturally left your dungeon!” the giant snorted, while the siren just kept nodding.
“Y-you… really stole my entire dungeon?” Elaya responded tearfully.
“You didn’t know?”
“When they are cut off from the dungeon, I feel their loss, but it’s not any different than if they died. Rather, I’d have much sooner expected you to defeat them. I didn’t realize my love is a dungeon poacher! Is that what I am to you? Another dungeon boss?”
“No…” I shook my head. “Actually, I’ll make you your own room with a means of reaching the surface. You won’t be a boss in my dungeon. I’d like these two girls to grow on their own instead.”
“Hehe… he called me a girl.” The giant blushed in a very girly way, and even the siren was making seductive looks my way.
“Ah… I probably should name them…”
“Not yet,” Elaya said.
“Huh?”
“You’re a Monster Tamer, and they are unnamed monsters. At level 30, you get the skill Naming. You can bestow a name on a monster then, and it would cause them to grow stronger and evolve. If you do it beforehand, it may stunt their growth.”
“I see…” I nodded. “That is exactly what I need you for. I need your experience and knowledge.”
Elaya’s eyes flashed with a pleased expression. “In that case, to answer your other question, Treasure has ranks. You’re a Dungeon Builder, not a Dungeon Master, so your progress is much slower than our own in what you can do with a Dungeon. You’ll probably eventually unlock Dungeon Master with time, but for now, you must work within the confines of your ability. With respect to that, treasures cannot be selected. When you create a treasure, it is randomly made. Furthermore, there are levels of creation. I’m assuming your current Create Treasure is the weakest level. That means the magical artifacts you create will be quite weak.
“Furthermore, the treasure is also limited by the size of your dungeon. So, a dungeon of only ten levels such as this one is a small dungeon indeed. Sadly, only time will change things here.”
Astria broke in with a throaty laugh. “Says you! Master, the dungeon is ready to be expanded to level 20!”
“So soon!” Elaya made a noise of surprise.
“Don’t underestimate the production of a fairy spring! This dungeon is growing at an unimaginable rate! Although, it doesn’t hurt that I stole the miasma of your dungeon.”
“That’s what you did with it!” Elaya sighed, “Well since things turned out this way, I suppose it is for the best. The larger your dungeon, the more power it will have.”
“I also recommend that Master add some more concentrated Water of Life into the fairy spring. We should expand it, so the dungeon’s consumption doesn’t exceed the output of the spring. I can teach Master how to produce more concentrated Water of Life. It’s more taxing, but the richer it is, the more advantageous it will be, both as a potion and as a mana source.”
“So, Master, are you ready to expand your power?”
The two experienced women didn’t seem to give me any time to rest. I had kept them exactly because I wanted their experience, and they didn’t waste any time pushing me to start growing my assets. I had been away from Chalm for too long, so it was a good time to start focusing on being a lord.
“Expanding is what I’m good at!” I declared
“Oh my!”
