Chapter 260 Control Room
"Wow... Isn't this room a bit more modern...? This world hasn't reached the industrial revolution, yet there already are these computer-like thingies here."
"I don't understand what you are talking about, but yeah, this place is conveniently more advanced than the latest mainstream technology."
I was pondering with my big sister after the metallic door slid and this modern room was unveiled before our eyes. To think that we would stumble upon a room like this lies after the Boss Room.
Yesterday, we faced and challenged the Dungeon Boss of this one hundred-floor dungeon, which we triumphally overcame later on. After defeating the Typhon, me and my sister instantly gained five Levels each.
By the way, defeating Dungeon Guardians and Bosses automatically gives Levels to the winner instead of EXP. The Levels varied with the strength of the monster, one level per hundred of the monster's Level. The Level only split in half for us since we actually did a 2v1 fight.
The reward chest surfaced afterwards, which turned out to contain a beautiful pair of mythical-grade weapons, exclusively to be wielded by me and Big Sis, respectively. The presence of mythical-grade weapons was so divine that they even outshined our parents legendary weapons.
Mom and Mother were glad of what we had achieved so far, and they felt proud that we had surpassed them. Even though there were four of us in the Boss Room, only Big Sis and I fought the boss; hence, Mom and Mother were not included in the rewards.
Soon after we held our own personal mythical weapons in our hands, an oddly large stone slab slid down from the wall from afar. When we got there, there was a spiral staircase that led downstairs.
However, I told the others we would not go there yet and decided to call it a day. I was genuinely curious about what lay ahead on those stairs, but a celebration at home was more relevant for us at that time.
And today, together with Big Sis, Mom, and Mother, we descended the stairs, and there was a Safe Area after passing the flight of stairs, which meant this area was technically the 101st Floor.
On the other side of the floor, there was another passage. We then walked in, and we ended up with a door, which brought us to our current situation.
"Could it be that this room was the administrator's room of this dungeon?"
"Judging from the odd interior of the room, that should be the case," Mom responded to my question. "Dungeons are meant to be conquered, so a place under its management must be necessary for its function and prosperity."
Just as Mom said, this room gave off that kind of atmosphere. Even though the room was dim, the lights of the bright monitors of these computers gave light to it. It felt like the lair of a stereotypical hacker.
The room was rectangular in shape and had no entry point other than the only door. There was a wide counter on the other side with floating rectangular panels on it. In my opinion, it would be safe to call that this world's version of the workstation.
(Aah... I suddenly missed my PC full of homework files at my home on Earth... I wonder how it is now after fifteen years?"
Seeing a family setup made me feel nostalgic for my life in my previous world. I could somehow teleport myself there with my abilities, but I did not want to since I had a new life here. Also, I did not want to have any more attachment to Earth.
"This room was unprecedented, and the stuff here looks complicated to utilize," Mother said as she scanned the room. "How are we able to manage this place?"
"Hmm. Let me see what we got here."
With that said, I walked forward and approached the counter; the others then followed suit. As soon as I reached out my hand on the counter, the biggest screen in the middle showed some changes, and then text appeared on it, saying:
[Dungeon conquered. Please put the conqueror's hand on the scanner to register the Dungeon Master's biometrics.]
Along with that, an oval panel was illuminated on the surface of the counter. From the looks of it, that panel must be where the hand should be scanned.
"Woah. A control panel, and it needs to register the Dungeon Master." I gaped when all the screens lit up brighter before turning around and asking. "But who should be the master of this dungeon."
When I asked that obvious question, Big Sis, Mom, and Mother tilted their heads as if confused. Soon after, Mom smiled and then said,
result of the efforts of you two, so one of you should earn it. Moreover, we don't want to claim the credits of my children's hard "Well, me and your Mother are basically not the ones who conquered the dungeon. So the decision is up to you and Louise."
"She's right," Mother seconded while nodding. "This feat is the result of the efforts of you two, so one of you should earn it. Moreover, we don't want to claim the credits of my children's hard work."
"If you two say so," I said before shifting my gaze to Big Sis. "How about you, Sis? Do you have something else to say?"
"...I think you should become this dungeon's master, Raphael," she said straightforwardly.
"Why is that?"
"Why? No particular reason, actually. I just think you are the most suitable person to manage this dungeon.
They rejected the opportunity to become a dungeon master, which left only me. Each of them had their own reasons why they could not, which left only me.
"Well, I guess I have no choice." I let out a defeated sigh. "Alright, I will become a Dungeon Master."
"Yey! Good for you!"
"That's my boy~."
There was no need to beat around the bush and waste time, and I eventually accepted their request to be this dungeon's master. Besides, I also wanted to manage a bigger dungeon myself, so it was a win-win situation.
"But you all should assist me with the management, alright?"
"Of course, Raphael. We always have you back."
With that said, I then placed my right hand on the scanner for the dungeon to analyze my genetic information. After a minute, the scanning finished, and the screen changed anew.
[Registration has been successfully completed. Individual Raphael Raevender has been recognized as the Master of this Dungeon.]
And just that, I became a dungeon master of a hundred-floor dungeon.
