Dungeon Reset Chapter 7

Water burst forth relentlessly!
“Argh!”
Daun Jung was astonished by the sudden explosion of water.
Even though he had exercised as much caution as possible while digging, he had still run into mishap in the end.
All the tunnels he had dug would be flooded at this rate, and he would drown to death!
Habit was quite a scary thing, however.
What had he been doing every day for the past few weeks?
Handling dirt.
He moved out of instinct.
“In, Inventory!”
Dirt Brick(99), Dirt Brick(99), Dirt Brick(99),
Dirt Brick(99), Dirt Brick(99), Dirt Brick(99),
Dirt Brick(99), Dirt Brick(99), Dirt Brick(99),
Dirt Brick(99), Dirt Brick(99), Dirt Brick(99),
Dirt Brick(99)
……
The result of his labor showed lined up before his eyes.
‘I have to block the hole!’
Daun Jung began to move his hands in a flurry.
Blindly he took out dirt bricks from his Inventory and closed up the hole spitting out water.
“Aaaargh!”
Water burst forth relentlessly!
[No use at all! Like smashing an egg against a rock!]
The Rabbit sniggered mockingly from behind, watching the sight of his struggle.
It was not something at the level that could be stopped with small earthen bricks.
Daun Jung did not give up, however — his life was on the line after all!
“Aaaargh!”
His hands grew even faster.
[Just give up already!]
Water burst forth relentlessly! C-crack! C-crack! And the hole grew even wider!
“Aaaargh!”
He had no room for thought.
No matter how many times he blocked up the hole, the stream of water would continue to gnaw at the wall and burst out.
What a hectic crisis!
Eventually, seeing that taking out the bricks one by one would never work, he resorted to pouring out the bricks in his Inventory all at once.
And how they poured out!
[Why are there so many?!]
The Rabbit was stunned.
Out of nowhere, something resembling a landslide was occurring before Daun Jung.
It was all the result of his labor until now.
Daun Jung flailed about his hands and desperately tried to take control.
‘Pile it up like a mountain and block the front of the hole!’
To save time, Daun Jung desperately adjusted the direction where the bricks were pouring out so that they would land right before the hole.
The bricks were repeatedly pushed back out by the rushing water, but each time he would aim at the collapsed part of the wall to patch it up.
‘I’m gradually getting the hang of it?!’
Daun Jung’s expression grew brighter as time passed.
And the hole gradually became smaller, and the flow of water grew weaker as well.
Eventually…
[I can’t believe it.]
He succeeded in blocking the hole.
The Rabbit cried out in amazement.
[You blocked that?!]
Daun Jung blankly muttered to himself, looking down at his hands dripping with water.
“… Wow. I feel like I’ve realized something now.”
[Realize what?]
“Mm, the knack of it?”
He looked uncertain.
He seemed to have acquired a kind of knack in the midst of frantically taking out dirt bricks from his Inventory.
“Why don’t I… give it a go?”

His hand headed towards the Inventory Window again.
Dirt Brick(43)
That he still had dirt bricks leftover spoke volumes of how much of a hard time he had working until now.
He grabbed the ‘Dirt Brick(43)’ with his hand and swung forward with the ‘feeling’ he had grasped.
And then…
Another concerto of stacking bricks!
Earthen bricks were summoned to the ground in line with the direction of his fingertips.
In an exactly straight line.
“Yus! It works!”
Daun Jung was delighted.
He decided to give it another try since it might have been a coincidence.
This time he raised the hurdle.
He aimed right on top of the dirt bricks he had just taken out!
‘Careful now.’
He closed his eyes for an accurate aim and measured the distance.
And then he swung his hand.
Another concerto of stacking bricks!
A second line of bricks landed exactly on top of the first line.
“Success!”
As Daun Jung cried out for joy, the Rabbit who was watching him questioned with a tilted head.
[Just what do you mean by success? It is a bit amazing taking them out in a line, but that’s all. What’s so special about that]
Daun Jung pointed at the two-layered stack of bricks in excitement.
“You still can’t tell when you see this?! I’ve become able to instantly build a wall with a mere gesture!”
[…?]
Just as the Rabbit was feeling puzzled, Daun Jung moved his hand again.
Bricks! Stacking!
[Eh? Eh? Eh?]
The Rabbit’s eyes began to increasingly grow larger.
Earthen bricks would stack up every time Daun Jung swung his hands, and what was a two-layered stack of bricks gradually grew higher into a wall.
Like magic!
[Holy. Is that a Skill?!]
“Nope, Skill my ass. It’s called getting the hang of it! Oh Rabbit. It seems that I’ve gained enlightenment in laboring.”
[The, the hang of it? Don’t be getting enlightened in something like that, you dork!]
The Rabbit yelled in irritation.
* * *
Although he had fortunately passed through the crisis, the damage caused by the watery mess was severe.
Tunnel No.1 was completely submerged.
It was a great inconvenience to Daun Jung, who had been putting all his efforts there.
All the suffering he had gone through ended up for nothing.
In exchange, however, there was a good to the bad.
Which was that there was now a source of drinking water!
“Looks like I won’t need to worry about water in the future.”
Daun Jung smiled in satisfaction as he looked at the small pond that had formed in the corner of his home base.
The Rabbit uttered curses, finding his satisfaction all too detestable.
[Humph. Who knows what poison runs through that water! You’ll definitely shoot diarrhea if you drink that! Roll on the floor suffering from bellyache!]
“Purification!”
[Wut?! What’re you doing!]
Flash!
Ignoring the Rabbit’s heartbreaking attempt at stopping him, Daun Jung emitted a pure-white light from his hand.
And the unknown pond of water was cleanly purified by none other than his first Skill, ‘Purification’.
“I think it’s drinkable now?”
[…]
The Rabbit had been forgetting.

That this had been Daun Jung’s task in Seungwoo Ryu’s group, to begin with.
Most poisons and germs would be cleanly erased with a single cast of his Purification Skill.
At the time it had thought, ‘What a darn useless Skill’, but the Skill was showing light in a situation like this.
There could not be a more detestable Skill from the Rabbit’s point of view.
But what was even more detestable was that Daun Jung was never careless.
“I should reinforce the wall right away. Who knows when it’ll burst again.”
[Really, being unnecessarily cautious.]
Daun Jung chuckled at the sound of the Rabbit grumbling as he used the Clump Dirt Skill to dig a deep hollow at the bottom of the pond.
That allowed water to steadily gather around the hollow, and Daun Jung built a low wall around that boundary.
“Hmm. If I measure the direction well. And swing my hand like this?”
Swip.
Bricks started stacking!
“Yes. Another success!”
As Daun Jung reinforced the pond, he continued to get used to the trick he had grasped in building walls.
There were times when his aim would go off upon losing focus, but he would succeed seven times out of ten.
He was so elated that he glanced at the Rabbit to ask for its thoughts.
“Think it’ll be sturdy if I stack two layers?”
[I don’t know! Don’t ask me such things!]
“Heheh.”
Daun Jung suppressed his mirth at the Rabbit’s reaction and continued to work.
He was happy to have someone to talk to after so long.
After being alone underground for so long, he welcomed even the Rabbit who he had been swearing revenge against.
* * *
“Oh. Well isn’t that pretty? Rather well made, honestly, if I do say so myself? How ’bout it?”
[Yes-yes. Very well done. Another totally useless talent for the list!]
Although the Rabbit was outwardly mocking at Daun Jung’s self-admiration, it honestly felt impressed inside.
The result of what he had made was quite good for something that was worked on sketchily while chatting with the Rabbit.
A neat brick wall surrounded the pond.
It had a stable structure where the clean, transparent water inside trickled towards Tunnel No.1 following a cleverly controlled incline.
The Rabbit had no choice but to admit it.
Anybody could see it was a well-made pond.
“The important thing is missing.”
[What else are you up to now?]
The Rabbit questioned Daun Jung, feeling disgusted by the sight of him trying to constantly do something.
Daun Jung pointed to the wall at the end of the pond as he replied.
“I’m going to make a water pipe.”
[A water pipe?]
“Mhm. The wall might burst again from the water pressure if it’s completely blocked off like that, right? I think it’ll be safer instead to open up a sluice gate in advance in the direction I want.”
Daun Jung walked into the pond and took out all 30 iron skewers he had collected from the bottom of the pit trap.
“Disinfection first. Purification!”
Flash!
And after going through the purification.
Daun Jung aimed the sharp ends of the skewers carefully and began to push them into the earthen wall, one by one.
He angled them to an upward incline and pushed them in to form a cylindrical shape, and the result was an iron pipe, albeit clumsily made.
“Now if I just dig out some dirt, the water pipe is complete.”
[Well aren’t you having the time of it by yourself. Seriously…]
“But there’s something to do before that.”
[…?]
Daun Jung suddenly summoned several clumps of dirt.
He bunched them on top of the water pipe and began to make something large.
The Rabbit tilted its head as moments later Daun Jung’s work was completed.
[A lion?]
Lo and behold, a figure of a lion’s head made of earth with its mouth wide open.
He had gone and created a fountain statue, something which one might see in places such as public parks.
Crudely made though it was, the gorgeous mane of the lion made for quite the sight.
[Really… the things you do.]
“Then for the final touches.”
Daun Jung put his hand inside the lion’s wide open mouth and activated his Skill.
“Clump Dirt! Clump Dirt!”
And the dirt that had been blocking the water pipe came out along with his hand.
Immediately afterward, a clear stream of water began to flow out of the lion’s mouth.
Thus a lion head fountain statue was completed.
“Done! It’s complete!”
The Rabbit laughed bitterly from behind Daun Jung, who was letting out proud cheers.
[So this is what people mean by unnecessarily high-quality. What a perfect description, honestly.]
But it was at that moment.
A half-transparent window appeared before their eyes.
“You have completed a pond with a lion fountain!”
– Reward : Fish will live in the beautiful pond you created.
“Mm?”
[What?!]
And something amazing happened.
Golden light flashed within the pond Daun Jung completed and suddenly, fish appeared!
They were astonished.
“Woah. There’s fish!”
[That’s absurd! What is this nonsense!]
The Rabbit was so shocked it was on the verge of fainting.
[This kind of achievement exists?! What? Pond completion? What about this is so great as to call it an achievement?!]
This event utterly smashed apart the Rabbit’s common sense regarding the dungeon.
‘Achievements’ where like miracles granted by the dungeon to the participants.
It was a blessing of the dungeon only given for doing things worthy of being rewarded.
Yet such a wonderful power gave out a reward for mucking around with dirt?
The Rabbit wished that all this was a dream.
However, what was happening before its eyes was undeniable reality.
No matter how hard it rubbed its eyes and looked again, finger-sized little fishes could be seen alive and moving inside the pond.
Not giving any regard for the Rabbit’s feelings, Daun Jung felt pure joy at the sight of the cute baby fishes.
“What a relief. Now I won’t be starving to death any time. There are water and fish now.”
It was truly a fortunate thing.
The issue of food and water that had been running out over time was solved in a single day.
Everything was going smoothly.
Daun Jung clenched his fists, full of hope.
“Alright. The heavens are helping me. I’m sure I’ll get out someday, so long as I keep digging hard. Giddy up me.”
[Don’t giddy up yourself!]
And the Rabbit wailed in lament.

Grey Worlds
A mysterious incident occurred on a otherwise normal science centered world where all of the children from the age range of eight to sixteen suddenly vanished. “Where have their kids gone and will they ever return?” The now childless parents never got to really ask that question, because a strange new element replaced their lost children. This element slowly mutated the various animals that they once ruled over with their technology to the point that they were immune to their modern weaponry. The barren land of savages on a continent far away from theirs also had their children taken, but they easily mutated just like the beasts and only grew stronger thanks to the incident. A revolution of animals eventually took place after the mutations started to cause the animals to understand just how badly the humans ruined their lives and planet. Humans were the slowest to figure out how to use this strange new element to evolve, while their opponents were evolving and growing stronger by the day they couldn’t even surpass their modern technology. When humanity was on the brink of extinction a long forgotten event finally ended and their children finally started to return from the various worlds they were summoned to! It turns out that the mysterious new element that they didn’t know what to call was mana and that it’s everywhere in some fantasy planets. The children brought back a increase in technology and techniques to grow stronger with, which caused the humans to finally be able to build safe havens for their race. They grew stronger and started to finally adapt to their brand new environment. This is the story of a orphan who was taken away from his world, before he could gain a sense of attachment to the world. Who only has his older sister to care about and how he ends up adapting to the new world in front of him.------------------Dog notes by doggo First 'five' chapters aren't what the story is really about and is more of a prologue. The reason why some are separated into parts is because Doggo originally posted them as a entire chapter. The main setting is Ghost's actual world and not any foreign world. So this story was already posted once to another site or this site three years ago… and Dog is finally ending that three year hiatus! The explanation on why Dog was on a three year hiatus would of been written in the review section, but rrl doesn't allow self reviews. I'd have to create a alt just to self review which they obviously don't want even tho I'd not give myself any stars so its going to be here instead. The update schedule is a chapter a week till Dog get a editor and then two chapters a week till Dog gets enough money to pay for Dog’s bills. The final goal is to release a chapter every other day. Dog writes 4k word chapters so they are about twice as long as some of the other authors so every other day is actually more like once a day. ------------------- The part that was supposed to be the 'review' which Dog wont bother editing out repeat infomation since it wasn't supposed to go here in the first place. The first thing Dog will go over is what changed for the first 5 chapters, so that anyone who still remembers Dog's little novel and wants to continue from where Dog originally left off can decide whether or not to reread it. Also Dog is moving over to qidan simply because dog like the app they have. Dog won't go premium even if Qidan tells dog to and will simply move back to royalroad or create a blog.The things that changed over the years are mainly two important things. The first is that Dog changed the first person point of view to a third person, because Dog read a really bad first person novel and it reminded dog of dogs own novel. Dog also changed the thoughts of the character to be - - instead of italics. Finally dog changed chapter 3 completely to make the mc not seem like a homicidal maniac and introduced a important character in chapter 3.What happened to do in the three years that dog was away? Was dog at college and now needs money to eat? Was dog off in space after successfully becoming a astronaut and has now returned home with a completed novel or two? The answer is actually quite plain dog graduated from highschool and was supposed to only spend a year at dogs owners house to choose what major dog wanted to go to college for.Dog didn't do that and is still stuck with dogs owners and is sick of being a neet. Dog wants to move and buy doggy food, but dog is antisocial and doesn't want to work a simple 9 to 5 job for the rest of dogs life. Dog is a reader before dog is a author and the reason why dog got into writing was because dog wanted to write a novel without all the things dog finds annoying. Dog spent the first year reading various novels and dropping various novels. Dog is all caught up and has to much free time on dogs paws. The first year that Dog took off was the very same year that qidan came out so dog was naturally overloaded with free chapters. But now that pemium exists dog naturally has to limit the amount dog can read. Dog is addicted to reading like my very own readers and can understand your frustrations for dog disappearing for 3 years.Dog decided that dog will go back to writing 2 years ago. Dog wanted a decent stockpile incase dog has any other emergency so dog didn't post for a year but then dog decided to change the point of view which took another year.Dog has a patreon page https://www.patreon.com/mclaindog but there isn't any tiers there or goals till dog gets a editor. My final goal is to release a chapter every other day, but as long as Dog gets a editor Dog will do two free chapters a week.Dog will probably also make a kofi for anyone who just wants to send dog a tip and can't afford to donate money monthly while maybe having bonus chapters if the tip jar gets filled.
