The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

Chapter 84: Ch 84: Royal Inheritances (1)

Just as Rein was done reminiscing about his fifth life as an elf, his elf girlfriend of real life woke up. After Rein came out of the dungeon he had a very hard time with memories of so many lovers from so many lives.

He would not be able to meet them ever again as at the end of the day, they all were just imaginations created by the almighty powers of a dungeon.

It took Rein quite some time to get out of that depression and he was only able to fully focus on his real life after he started meeting his current lovers of this life. Now Rein was determined to spend an eternity with all of them together.

After waking up, Stella kissed Rein and told him that she had finished deciphering the whole thing while sleeping. Now she also knew that the fifth item was. It was a special natural gem called the Soul Jade.

The members of the royal family used this item to store a wisp of their soul inside it and if any member of the royal family died, there would be a chance to revive that person with this the stored piece of soul from this soul jade.

Obviously this item was not an omnipotent item. One person could not store his wisp of the soul for more than one time. So one could use this item to revive only once. Not only that but the stored soul would only be there for the amount of time that person's lifespan was left.

So this item could not do anything against the problem of old age. But still, it was really an amazing item which was extremely useful for a royal family to have.

After knowing all the items Rein decided to check them out today as the places mentioned as those items' location were actually not very far from here. That also made sense as this book was also found in a nearby ruin.

So, it was decided that while Lauren would be busy with her gardening work, Rein and his three other lovers were going to check those places out. Rein was planning to check all five of the places in just one day if it was possible if not then he would give this project a few more days.

...

The place that they went to was the dungeon. It was written in the book that the entrance of this dungeon was hidden inside an underground cave even in the olden days, so it was definitely going to be hard to find in the current age.

Just as they had expected, that underground cave was gone and alongside it, that dungeon also got buried underground. But after coming to this place, all three of the adventurers who had entered many dungeons were able to feel the peculiar sensation of being close to one.

Normally it would be extremely hard for a person to feel this, almost impossible. But as Rein and his team had visited and conquered so many dungeons, they were able to somehow feel it.

Rein used his Eye of Truth to pinpoint the location and the Dungeon and Stella transformed her earth spirit into a shovel to dig the ground. With her special super high quality shovel it was quite an easy job and soon, the conquerors were able to find the entrance to the dungeon.

It turned out that one four people could enter the dungeon at once and all four of them would be having different trials. They would not meet each other inside the dungeon and could only meet back up with one another after coming out of this dungeon.

After entering the dungeon, Rein found it to be quite a clever one. It had a total of 9 levels and clearing all the levels would allow you to clear the whole dungeon. He also noticed that the difficulty of this dungeon was moderately high.

Not only that but the power level of this dungeon depended on the person challenging it and some of the trials were designed in such a way that power levels became useless in those cases. So any person with any power level was capable of challenging this dungeon and would have a chance to clear it.

This particular dungeon was a bad match for specialists. Having a single specialised talent would not help one in clearing this dungeon. Instead, it was a very easy dungeon for an allrounder.

For that reason Rein and Stella had a very easy time solving it but Tasha and Kagura needed to spend significantly more time inside. Yes this dungeon even considered Kagura was a person and not an item so she was also able to enter this dungeon as a challenger.

All four of them were able to gain one skill scroll each just as the book had said. Not only that but the skills they got were also of the highest quality that this dungeon could offer. Rein noticed those skills to not be overly powerful but quite useful as they were specially suited for their owners.

There was another cool thing about this dungeon and that was the fact that the skill scrolls were only usable by the person who was able to win the scroll and no one else.

The skill Rein got was "Stamina Conversion". Rein was able to transform his stamina into other things like mana, health or even materials. That sounded very impressive but the conversion rate was extremely, EXTREMELY bad.

So much so that a person might end up using all his stamina without gaining anything as that amount of stamina was not enough for even a single transaction.

So only people like Rein who had a very high amount of stamina that was always recovering in rapid speed would be able to use this skill. For that reason, this skill was really a skill that only Rein would be able to best utilise.

Stella got a skill called "Spirit Wings". While using this skill, she was able to create butterfly-like wings behind her back and was able to fly around with it.

Stella was always able to fly with her magic spells, but she found out that flying using these wings was a lot faster and easier to control and maneuver. She was satisfied with this skill. It even had some special effects depending on the type of spirit she was channeling this skill through.

It was a very good addition to her skill set.

Tasha on the other hand for a skill called "Mass Convergence". It allowed her to make a part of her body to be heavier by pulling mass out from other parts of the body and making them lighter.

This skill would not have been much useful if Rein, Stella or Kagura got it as their total body mass was not much. But that was not the case for Tasha. She was actually a super large wolf weighing several tons. So this was a very useful skill for her.

As for Kagura the skill she got was called "Extra Transformation". Rein guessed that there were not many skills that a sword life form was able to learn. And Kagura also did not really participate in fights herself.

So instead of giving her a skill that increased her fighting prowess, the dungeon decided to give her a skill that would help her in other ways.

Extra Transformation allowed Kagura to transform in not only human form but also into the form of various other humanoid races whose structure was very similar to humans, like elves, beastkins etc.

So now, Kagura was able to also take on the form of other races and she was definitely planning to use it to seduce Rein more effectively. She still needed to master up a bit more courage but she was happy to have more options on hand.

The dungeon exploration was a great success and Rein was planning to give this dungeon for the Okniser family to manage as a form of repayment. This was a very useful dungeon as it was able to give skill scrolls to the person who would be able to conquer it.

The process of conquering was also quite easy and Rein was sure that quite a few people from the Okniser family would be able to do that. When Rein said that the difficulty was moderately high, he meant that the difficulty of conquering it for the best skills.

Just conquering this place would not be too hard with putting in some effort and time.

After the dungeon, the next inheritance that they were going to check was the fourth item called the tower of Sovereign's Grace. They were going to it first as the location of that tower was closer to their current location.

After getting closer to the tower, Rein found out that the exact location of the tower was the same as the location of a danger zone called the Phantom Forest. After investigating the area they were able to find the tower but it was already a bit broken.

This danger zone also got created because of the leaked residual illusion powers. So most of the people who came to this forest got lost in the illusion and some had even lost their lives. Rein took away the whole tower to solve this problem and with that a danger zone also disappeared from the world.

This tower was damaged and not in a working condition. So, Rein handed it to Stella to see if she could use her incredible alchemical abilities to fix this or not. So, as she was checking this item, all four of them then went toward the next inheritance item.
