《Rise of a Rogue Dungeon》Core Chapter 14: The Expansion of a Dungeon Pt.6
Advertisement
Expanding down the hole took quite a while because of how tiny it was, making it need to expand it so its monsters could follow along. And by tiny, it meant tiny since Common Cave Grobs only stood at one and a half foot tall while the Berserker stood at two, meant that Grobs dug tunnels which were too small for anything other than them to travel through.
After four hours of working at expanding down the tunnel it reached the location the Grobs came from. Standing at the edge of the cliff the tunnel opened up to, the Core's vision was filled with a twenty kilometer wide, and forty kilometers deep chasm which had numerous holes dug into the sides with tiny Grobs bustling in every direction. However, the thing which caught its attention first wasn't the Grobs or how vast the underground chasm was, no what caught its attention was the Beast at the bottom of the chasm whose end the Core couldn't see. The Beast was so monumental it stunned the Core leaving its mind entirely blank and slightly fearful as it appraised it.
Ancient Basal Wyrm Wyrms are close cousins of Dragons but lack the same strength, however, while they don't have the power of Dragons their size dwarfs that of Dragons more than fifty times over. This makes angering a Wyrm one of the most dreadful situations possible for any being no matter how strong they may be. Basal Wyrms sleep deep underground feasting on Mana as they sleep while their size scares off any would-be attackers making them rarely ever be awoken. Rating: Greater Legendary.
Seeing the description, it didn't want even want to risk awakening this absolute monster that could eat its entire Dungeon in a single bite and ordered all its monsters to return to where they'd been before only giving extra instructions to the Progenitor to keep an eye on the hole in the event more Grobs emerge.

As it was returning to the Titan core's area, its mind shuddered recalling the rating of that Wyrm. Although the Titan core and Lakinite had higher ratings, they weren't alive like the Wyrm was, making it hope the Wyrm never awakens until it can adequately deal with such a beast.
Entering the Titan core's room it was about to go drain the Titan core again, but its mind suddenly froze in shock, why was it draining it personally? It could just cover the whole Titan core with Leechlings which would probably solve most of its Mana problem, so why hadn't it? The more it thought about it, the greater the disturbance in its mind was growing, did its evolution really affect its mind so much? It decided to fix the mistake it had made and started making Leechlings and ordered them to drain the Titan core. When it finished, it could see its Mana regen was fifty a minute, leaving it extremely satisfied.
Barely an hour later while pondering its next steps, it felt something enter its influence and the first floor. Swiftly arriving at the entrance, it was extremely confused when it saw the 'thing' which had entered its Dungeon.
Floating away into the Swamp was a white fluffy looking sphere one meter in radius with what it believed to be two arms with ten tiny fingers each, dangling down from the front of the sphere. The creature had two beady black eyes and didn't seem to have a mouth. The more it inspected the sphere, the weirder it found it and finally decided to appraise it.
Nifilim
Cloud-like beings Nifilim were Fae thought to be extinct by sapients, but they still wander the world unable to find safe refuge. Their near extinction status was brought about by the fact they're excellent enchantment material, causing sapients to hunt them to their current status. Nifilim over the thousands of years since they've gone into hiding have developed burning rage against the sapients who hunt them for making mere weapons, armor, clothing, and buildings. Nifilim can use Mind Magic, Illusion Magic, Dark Magic, and Wind Magic with greater affinity for all of them, making their repertoire of magic mighty indeed. Contrary to their cute appearance Nifilim have become heartless killers towards their hunters, but they remain kind and caring to those who haven't hunted them. Their old Fae statuses have been lost due to their downfall into darkness and corruption.

Rating: Exceptional Rare.
Looking over the description, it was surprised at the Nifilim's Magical affinities, "You watch, you hunger, you're alone. Like me." The Core was shocked to hear a soft, soothing voice drift into its mind. It quickly returned to its Core wondering if something was near it, but when it got there, it found nothing. It decided to return to inspecting the Nifilim and told the Abomination also to keep an eye on its Core room in case something had evaded it.
Arriving before the fluffy sphere again, it was about to have something kill the Nifilim when it heard the voice again, "You're cautious, afraid, and desire the horizon. You cannot obtain the untouchable, you want to expand, you want to kill, you take pleasure for every death within you, but many would stop you. You fear that which you cannot kill, you trust only those under your control, your mind is unstable, your thoughts lost to even yourself. You hate Pixies due to events out of their control, you don't wish to be controlled, you wish to control, you are evil, but you are not, you fulfill your desires, you take all that interests you, you live your life as you wish only afraid of death, but you have also cheated death. Your every thought is like a book before me, your mind twisted, but not broken, your desires and pleasures which you seek can be easily acquired, but you don't know how, you wish for knowledge, but have no way within your cave beyond appraisal to learn anything. Your wishes are possible, but patience is required, you live every day needing to do something, but sometimes time is all that can give you what you seek. You grow more confused the more I speak, yet I hold no evil toward's you, I hold admiration, but saddened you are likely doomed if you follow your thoughts. I desire to burn, flay, and break the sapients just like you; I desire the horizon so that I may be free of hiding and fear just as you, I desire to control, but cannot as you, my mind may be twisted just as you. I wish to help you bring about your desires so that mine may be fulfilled as well. I ask a pact of servitude, you the master, I the servant, but should you stop your killing this pact will be void. Do you accept?"

Cultivating Earth [Hiatus]
[This fiction is on indefinite hiatus. I'm currently acting as a 24-hour caregiver for my step-father who had a massive heart attack. I apologize for disappearing so quickly, but sometimes that's just life. I'll return as soon as possible. Sorry everyone!] Zhao Gang, after hundreds of thousands of years cultivating, has finally reached the penultimate threshold. He is ready to ascend to the level of True Immortal. Driven by the need for a place his enemies won't find him, Zhao Gang puts together an audacious plan. He has developed a revolutionary new formation which will allow him to ascend while on even the lowest planes. To avoid drawing attention, he has to choose a plane that is relatively desolate, however. He chooses Earth. Fast forward three thousand years. Zhao Gang discovers what his work has wrought - a cultivation-free culture that has delved the deep mysteries of creation - he can't help but think how this tiny little planet devoid of natural energy could affect the course of all creation. There's only one problem. For that to happen, he has to succeed in cultivating Earth. Notes: Chinese names should be ignored in the social context - they don't mean anything. Sorry for slaughtering such a beautiful tradition. This novel starts off slower than most. If the slow-roll isn't your thing, you might want to give this a pass. If it's not for you, I understand. Also, releases may be broken up into smaller chunks. The goal is 5k words, but definitely more than 4k. If you see a short release, be aware that more is probably coming. I'll be honest and say that I'm struggling with each new scene, if only because I want to balance the scope of vision with good pacing. I hope the work I put into it is worthwhile.

Long War [Oldest]
It was a war. It was silent, so silent that few people ever noticed that it was happening, and long. So long that those who knew forgot why it ever started. Humanity had fought against itself... and lost. Prosperity, democracy and human rights were a thing of the past now, as the world fell into Sovereigns's hands - a handful of transnational corporations (and their CEOs) that monopolized the world economy. The resistance had been long silenced with the policy of bread and games. Now, over a hundred years later, something happened. One of the Sovereigns created a VRMMORPG like none other. A science fiction game, where players could explore the Galaxy... full of advanced technologies, bloodthirsty aliens and even magic. Was it a simple computer game, or... something else?
