《Dungeon Games》V2 Chapter One: Give and Take.

Advertisement

Once we entered the classroom, Jessica and I were met by three boys, and two girls. The Teacher was there as well, smiling kindly at us while Jessica pushed me forward a little, and I scooted in while keeping my head down, nervous.

When I looked at the others, I saw one of the girls had brown hair, and was wearing a kind of cute hat with eyes that were huge and happy looking. I must have stared a while because she piped in, her voice high and hyper sounded.

“It’s a Slime!” Icky, was my first thought, and I frowned at it, I assume she took that as a challenge because she got a sly look in her eyes, then another male who was about my height, wore glasses, and had long hair tied into a ponytail. The other boy was a blond haired boy with brown eyes and seemed nice.

The other two students I remembered well, one was the...I blushed, very handsome Greydon. He had certainly filled out in the time from that amatuer tournament all those years ago. The girl was a short asian girl, and it was Suzuki. She was wearing a cute one piece dress and her dark hair was shoulder length still. Her features seemed sharper, and her bright clear black eyes seemed like they might draw you into them. She was really, really beautiful. Both Suzuki and Greydon both made me blush, I was a huge fan of them both, and seeing them just made me more shy.

The Teacher was a middle aged man that was balding, and wore glasses. He seemed nice though.

“Welcome! You must be Sidnie Leonholdt, and Jessica Gordon. You are the last students sent to my class. You also make our Freshmen count at Five with two Juniors. Now then, why don’t we go around the room, after our last two arrivals take a seat, and introduce ourselves and say what Race we each use. I shall begin.”

Jessica and I took our seats, and Jessica sat between myself and Suzuki. I frowned, I had wanted to sit beside her. Jessica just smiled sweetly at me, and the Teacher was the only one to my right.

“Alright, I am your Teacher Mr. Baxter. My Starting Race when I first started was the Wolf, and since then I have garnered two other races. An Advanced Race, and one Master Race. I will introduce them to you at a later date.”

He looked to his left, and the boy with blond hair spoke up.

“My name is Winston Rodgers, please call me Weasel. My Race is Sylvan, a Rarely seen Adept Race. Fairies, basically. I know not a lot of people have heard of them.”

Not a lot have, they were only available for purchase, and were a limited time availability two years ago. In total only 100 were released.

The girl with the Slime hat, I shivered, was next and she happily spoke out when it was her turn. “My name is Georgeta Stephenson! Call me Georgie! My Race is the Slime, Tentacles are love! Oh! Oh! Hey, girls, can I?..”

Mr Baxter interrupted while most of the boys burst out laughing. I was just confused, why Tentacles, and why were Jessica and Suzuki blushing and glaring at her.

“Georgie! None of that now, let’s move on to the next.” Georgie seemed to pout, but was staring at me smiling, and Jessica kind of growled at her. I frowned at them both, but listened to the next introduction.

“My name is Henry Allen. My Race is Plant, an Amatuer Race. I look forward to learning with you for the year.”

He seemed like a sweet shy boy, kind of serious as well. Greydon was next, and I had to keep from looking at him directly. I saw a smile when he realized I was blushing when I looked at him. Jessica was looking a bit upset as well.

“My Name is Drake Greydon. My Races are Goblins, and Felines, a Rare Amatuer Race.”

He had a deep voice, and I liked it a great deal. I poke Jessica and smiled at her, she looked from him to me frowning, but smiled a little when she saw me smiling at her. I didn’t like seeing her upset.

“My name is Yuri Suzuki. My Races are the Rabbits, and an Adept Race Naga. It is an honor to be with you for this year.”

I heard Drake snort and saw him cross his arms over his broad chest. “Hmph, you got them because you cheated in that fight.”

“I did not, Drake, I won because you grew overconfident, just like in every battle we have fought each other.” Suzuki said calmly, smiling a little as she did. It made her very serious features and attitude soften and she looked much more beautiful.

“My name is Jessica Gordon, my Race is the Undead. I’m sidnie ’s friend.” It kind of sounded like she was claiming me, but I didn’t mind. I liked she had made it a point of saying the weird girl was her friend, at least I felt weird.

“Let me guess, you go all defensive like that guy Griffon huh?” That was Drake, I blushed when I looked at him, but was frowning. He was picking on Jessica. I was about to say something, but she beat me to it.

“You will have to fight me to find out Goblin boy.” I giggled, and so did the others. Drake just frowned at Jessica.

It took me a moment, but I realized it was my turn.

“Um, My name is Sidnie Leonholdt. You can call me Sid if you want. I-I am new to school, due to being very sick I was homeschooled, and remained at home for the last seven years. My Race is...Um, Demons.”

It grew silent after that. Jessica was smiling, and patted my hand lightly for being brave. But each person was staring at me so I kind of ducked into my hoodie to hide. It was a bit to much. Suzuki looked at me, as did Drake. Both held interest, and for some reason Georgie had a very sly smile on her face, while the other two boys just seemed shocked. Mr. Baxter just smiled at me. He already knew no doubt.

I would ask you all kindly stop staring at Sidnie, it is causing her distress and I will not have that!

“Oh my…” said Mr. Baxter. “That is a very advanced A.I. What is your Personality percentage?”

That is hardly a matter for conversation while Sidnie is under distress, but it is 91%. I am a specially designed A.I created by the Creator to assist and grow with Sidnie. Once more, I ask you stop staring.

Mr. Baxter whispered Fascinating, but the kids did stop staring, and I just flushed more. Leo had brought more attention from that, I was certain. Jessica was laughing.

“That’s Leo for you, always the doting protector.” She laughed again, and Leo thanked her for the compliment.

“Now then *cough* Why don’t we connect all of our A.I’s through the rooms separate server and allow them to mingle while we begin class. I am truly looking forward to seeing all of your Races and how you have shaped them, particularly the two who are of the Adept Rank within the tournaments.”

We each had our A.I connect to mingle, and then pulled out our portable tables, each of ours was a 5 by 5, while Mr. Baxter went to the closet area and pulled out a large 20 by 20 table and a small 5 by 5 portable table as well.

“This 20 by 20 will be for our class fights to test your knowledge and experience with your Races. This will be a subject for next week after we have finished introducing each of our class subjects into your individual world. Drake, Yuri, you may use one of your Race as the Class’ learning method. I will have you introduce these methods to your other Race at a later date to experiment with.”

They both nodded, and I saw Suzuki pick her Rabbits, and Drake chose his Goblins. I picked the table up a little more, it was kind of heavy. Jessica helped me when she saw me struggling, and we set it up together.

“Thank you Jessica!” I said, smiling. She poked my nose and said ‘you’re welcome’ and we sat down with the tables firmly in place, listening to Mr. Baxter explain more.

“What we will be doing, with the permission of Dungeon Inc. is introducing the Classes into your Point system, what this will do is grant your Race the basics of each. With the added permission, these purchases will be 100 Points each, Sidnie, we have been given the ability to stop the nasty Point Doubling that your Race undergoes each time you purchase an upgrade. This will not change any of your existing prices, or the ones that come after. But! It will stop any and all doubling that would normally occur.”

I smiled! My prices would not be lowered, but I could and would be able to purchase without extreme worry from now on. And with the Classes I was taking I’d be able to learn new methods of advancing my current technologies through each of my Tribes, what it would do to Fluffy I had no idea just yet. But looked forward to seeing it.

Mr. baxter went to each of our portable tables, and inserted a USB into each. Explaining as he did.

“As the Juniors know, this USB is a specially made program from Dungeon Inc. for our school that will add the options into your Point lists. Purchase them for the Race you chose, it is a one time purchase, you must manually do them for future Race, and you will of course need to manually guide and learn with them for each to grow in the field. I will be giving projects related to each that you must manually manage, and build within your selected Race. If you have multiple towns, or cities, you will be doing different versions within each that will fit with the selected area.”

He finished putting the classes within each of our Tables. I looked at the Points and a new tree had formed. ‘School Tree’ I giggled at it, and Mr. Baxter smiled at me motioning for me to purchase the classes. I did so, and was met with a new prompt.

Congratulations on opening a new Tree to advance your Race, this is a one time purchase for each, and limited to the Race selected. any other application of these advancements will need to be done manually, and through hard work.

We have also taken the restriction limited to you early on that each of your purchases double the price of future purchases within that field. It will not lower your current costs, but you may safely purchase without worrying about doubling your expenses later.

And congratulations upon your first year of High School.

Sincerely, Dungeon Inc.

I smiled at it before dismissing it and looking at my miniature version of the Dungeon World at home. The main downside to the 5 by 5 tables was that you had to have your A.I focus on the portion you wished to see, you could not see it all in one go. The fact I had four areas and a massive chunk of the Dungeon World at Home under Demonic control meant I had spent almost a week downloading the current version of my Dungeon World into the 5 by 5, and though it was linked fully to my main Table and would move in real time as I advanced with this, it was a slower and more time consuming process.

I heard Mr. Baxter clap his hands, he was rubbing them together looking excited. “Alright children! Why don’t we begin yes? What is the best way to start our class do you think? Shall we go around explaining what each of your particular Races do, and how they advance, or evolve into more powerful Species?

Perhaps I could bend the rules and allow a small battle between you all, though I think that should wait until tomorrow. I will however hand out the Glasses required for this course, you will spend the majority of it controlling your chosen Creature each day and working on my projects for your class assignments.”

He paused, looking at his tablet, no doubt a downloaded information tablet designed to show exact statistics of a Dungeon World.

“Hmmm, fascinating. It appears we have one Student who has mastered the basic concept of farming, as well as setup and conquered all but a very small portion of a 100 mile area within our Freshmen.”

I shrunk a little in my seat, Jessica looking at me with a wry smile, she was close to doing the same, and the only reason it was not all under Demonic control was because the other Boss Monsters remained.

“Sidnie, you have done an amazing job here. The stats, and detail with which each of your four tribes have advanced, including this all Canine Demon clan are fascinating. You already have base cultures developing with each. That explains the majority of your survey scores. I look forward to seeing how you advance these aspects of Management Basics during your year in my class.”

The others were looking at me again, and I tried very hard not to blush at the attention. I felt awkward and scared. Schooching a little closer to Jessica I peaked out around her toward Drake who seemed mildly amused.

“Of course our adept Players have mastered their respective Cultures, but this is a course required to learn more about the respective cultures. What our dear Sinie here has is a unique aspect. Each of her...Four, amazing, separate factions appear to be under the influence of different Cultures. That may lead to trouble later young lady.”

I nodded, and tried to speak, nothing came out. I was really nervous. Jessica bumped me with her shoulder and whispered it was ok, I took the little bit of help and spoke out hesitantly.

“I know, Mr. Baxter. I-I appear to be having some troubles already. They have been sending scouts and showing more aggression along the borders between territories.”

He nodded his head a little.

“I can see this occurring, alright. You are not allowed to influence the flow of events unless it begins to impact your classes, understood? This will be a marvelous learning tool for both you, and the rest of us. Myself included.”

I frowned at him, worried for my Demons, I had been planning to try and stop what was coming, the fighting that was going to grow beyond scouts, but now I was being denied that. I would have to watch my Demons die. I felt like crying right now.

Mr. Baxter, sidnie is distressed, what have you done? Ah, I would ask you allow her to interfere and stop the coming war between her Demon Tribes. She loves them, and does not wish them harmed.

Mr. Baxter smiled, but he remained firm.

“I am very sorry Leo, but I must allow this to occur. It presents us with too large an opportunity to learn about the Master Race of Demons themselves, along with what it is like to have four very unique and different cultures clashing. Each of the others have two at the most, and have already ensured that no in fighting would occur.”

They argued, and finally Mr. baxter stated that I could influence the events, but not stop it. That was the best Leo could do, and he was somewhat upset. I could tell.

“It’s ok Leo, we will manage. Besides, Fluffy, Red, Obsidian, and Specter won’t be harmed, I’m sure frag won’t either. They are too strong.”

Leo gave in, and went back toward the shared network for the A.I, but me stating names had earned attention again, along with Leo saying I loved my Demons. Drake seemed to think it was ridiculous that someone loved their creatures. It made me blush, but I got angry as well, and told him that I felt sorry for him. He had no connection to his Dungeon World.

He got angry, and stopped looking at me. The others seemed more intrigued by my statement of naming my favorites, and caring about them. Jessica thought of her undead as Pets mostly, so she liked them. But only really cared for her A.I, Lucifer. She at least understood me though.

I peaked up after ducking down from my outburst to see Suzuki smiling at me, a knowing smile. I remembered the tears she had shown when she won the Tournament, and realized she was the same. I smiled back and waved kind of.

Her smile grew. “You are very sweet, Sidnie. I know few who care for their Dungeon World's Residence like you. I am one of them, and would love to speak with you in the future about the ones you have named.”

I kind of blushed at the praise, hearing someone you followed through their professional career and was like a Hero to you praise you for what you did was a bit overwhelming. I felt somewhat star struck.

Jessica frowned at Suzuki, and looked at me. She seemed conflicted, and confused for some reason.

“Are you ok Jessica?” I whispered.

“I’m fine.” She was pouting. I frowned at her and poked her thigh under the desk.

“If you smile I’ll make you some food soon.” I was very proud of my cooking skills, I’d been practicing.

Her face gained a red tinge, she liked my cooking, and she knew I was using it to bribe her into a better mood. I won in the end, and she smiled, though it was a little forced she seemed to feel better.

“Fine, but I want Pancakes. They taste the best.” We were whispering, to keep our conversation between us, but I was relatively sure Suzuki had heard, and she was looking at Jessica, her eyes said she knew something I did not and it made me kind of sad. Someone we just met acting like that, I wasn’t sure how that made me feel either, to be honest.

I promised Jessica she would have her Pancakes tomorrow, and then she dragged me a little closer so we could all start talking and getting to know one another, Mr. Baxter allowed us this time.

I learned that Weasel, liked reading fairy tales, and used them as the prime focus in learning about his Fairy like Race. He had several Tier 3 creatures, his favorite was the Winter Sprites he had spent a month learning how to get as a Species. They were really pretty, when he showed them. It was a tiny little girl with pale snowflake wings, and a really pretty blue and white dress. Her hair and eyes were white, and the skin looked pink. I wanted to cuddle it!

Henry studied plants a lot, his Daddy was a horticulturist, and he used his Race to help him learn new facts about some plants, though they spent the majority of the time just playing with them, and figuring out if it was magical in origin, or was an actual aspect of the Species they grew.

Georgie was a bubbly little girl, a bit older than me, and 4 feet tall. She was also hyper that her class had three amazingly pretty girls, I knew that Jessica, and Suzuki were in that number, but she was referring to me, and I had told her I’m not pretty. I had just gotten a look, and been told that if anyone ever told me that she had no doubt Jessica would hurt them. I frowned, and then got utterly confused when she asked if I had any adult woman like creatures in my Race.

I had shown her the Succubus, Red, and then she asked me if we could connect our world and I use her, while she used a special slime she had bred for a certain amount of fun involving Tentacles. I had asked how we would do that, and before she could explain it in detail, what she had already begun to explain made me blush and kind of fried my brain, but Jessica had come up and smacked her hard upside the head.

I was still reeling from the image of Red doing things to a tentacle that I felt were really weird, added to that Slimes were Icky anyway.

After I calmed down, and Jessica said to ignore whatever Georgie said, we went on. Suzuki explained how she had created a Japanese caste system, and that the descendant of her Favorite Rabbit she had used in the amatuer tournament all those years ago was an acting Shogun within her Society, she had opted to not go into the Naga at this time, because this class she would be focused on her Rabbits.

Drake, was just really Handsome, and I kind of zoned out while looking at him as he explained. Jessica had elbowed me, and I caught the end of it as he described his Goblins were based upon the Viking Cultures, and he had introduced several historical like aspects into them. They raided the Naturally spawning Monster villages and Towns within the area of influence his Goblins had, and that they lived in an archipelago and used ships to do the raiding. He stated it fit well with his Lightening Variant.

We continued to talk for the rest of the day, Mr. Baxter had informed us aside from a short project at the end of class, today would be spent having us get to know each other. The fact is was a half day as the first day of school also added to that. ‘Not enough time to really get into it’ were his exact words.

So we spent the day getting to know each other. We exchanged numbers, and once the day ended we went to meet with Franny. Our after School Class would begin tomorrow as well.

“Franny!” I said, and jumped on her, she nearly fell but managed to keep us upright. I’d missed her. She was laughing, and so was Jessica.

“It’s only been four hours Sid!” I hugged her tighter. I didn’t care, I had wanted to spend my school time with both her and Jessica.

She patted my head, and after I let her go she explained her class. It had four others in it, and each one were seniors with an Advanced Race. One of them actually had the Snake Race! I found that amazing, because I liked Snakes, kind of.

We talked about our day, as we rode the bus home, and at some point I realized the majority of my fear had gone away. That made me happy, I smiled at them both and when we arrived at my house, I was reminded to make Pancakes for Jessica, before they both went home. I looked forward to tomorrow now. If the first day was like this, how bad could it be?

Red POV -

Thoughts filled my mind, along with a multitude of others within my Realm, my sweet little subjects. Mistress has given another gift, knowledge, such fascinating concepts. Something called ‘Science’ That I enjoyed, and had begun sending my crafty little sweetheart Imps to experiment with the subject.

As it was, it was about all the poor dears were use to, I had the Fiends to fill me properly now. Fill me they did as well. Mmmm, I wished for Mistress to take control and allow me to corrupt her sweet essence with my body all the more now. I am sure it would feel all the sweet to have her take the male shape and fill me to bursting.

I screamed my own release at last, it had only taken my favorite little boy toy and his siblings eight hours. They were learning. I purred and ran my long taloned fingers down the length of their leather red skin, enjoying the feel before kicking them out of my chambers, and summoning Selene.

She arrived, and I was fascinated to see the difference between her Lesser Succubus form, and my own. Where I was voluptuous, and fit to bursting in all my lovely assets, along with my long flaming red hair, she was more petite, slimmer though very attractive with long black hair, and a slightly smaller tail.

Her skin was more alabaster than my own, a point of pride that stung me slightly. I held horns as well, where the rest of my kind did not. No doubt a point that must be caused by my Mistress, her oh so sweet innocence when she controlled my little Selene as well. I smiled at the woman in question, and she came willingly to my bed, crawling in to slide along my prone body and kiss me.

Still my favorite toy. I spent a short time enjoying her, before moving on to business.

“Have you anything to report on the border? Has that ‘Other’ with the Husks sent more?”

She paused, I was being rather cruel, my tail tip was still buried within her soft folds, and I was twitching it. She gave an adorable little gasp before trying to speak.

“They *Moan* were sighted this morning, a group of….Five, My Lady.”

So very adorable, but I needed the report. I removed my tail, enjoying one final sweet gasp before she continued, cuddled against my body.

“The Hell Fire Imps guarding it have dispatched them with their flames, My Lady. We have stationed several of our Fiends along the borders as well. They have been sending some that heavily armed and armored to make small forays into our lands. They appear slightly bigger as well, though I know not why.”

That was distressing, a larger fiercer Fiend would end badly for us in a fight. The Fiends were our only true combatives in close range. Selene had taken the role of my General, and thanks to her several have become adept at low altitude flying like the Imps, and ground fighting. Because of this I have begun breeding them properly, training their physical attributes far better than before.

I sighed a moment, Motioning for her to continue.

“We have also spotted one of the Dogs entering our land, the result did not end well. We tried to catch it, but lost it within the brush of our own woods. It was not a two headed one, the Orthos, like before either. It was a larger single headed beast.”

“Dark Hound” I stated, my Grimoire had an interesting aspect of holding Demonic Species names within it, though for some odd reason most were blank. I had begun to attribute this to the fact none were present within any of my Lands, or the ‘Others’

I stretched slightly. How could I rid myself of these rivals for Mistresses Affections? Without her blaming me. I stuck my lower lip out, pouting a bit, I wanted them gone to keep her for myself, but Mistress stated she loved them as well. She had said equally to how she loved me! The sheer absurdity baffled me, and made me burn with jealousy.

If I ever received the chance I would do what Selene had when one of the others, a Fiend, had spoken of taking her spot as the most favored, and rip them to pieces. I growled a bit, before taking Selene one last time.

When I sent her from my chambers, I rose and went out. I had knowledge, Culture, though basic, Science, Management, something called Agriculture, and ‘History’ of some kind that baffled me. However it was no doubt a result of My Mistress.

Agriculture somewhat fascinated me, and I looked within my Grimoire Relic. I would use these, somehow I was sure I could make proper use of plants. Either to amplify our own military power using it and magic, or with the Science and study I had begun to think upon. I required Mistress to aid me, but she had not visited me for several long years. She was no doubt visiting one of the ‘Others’

Once more the Jealousy burned deep, and I bit my lip to keep from screaming in frustration. I wanted Mistress, yet the other one, her oh so mighty guardian kept her from me! I could not take what I wanted, and even though I would not harm her, I wanted to corrupt her, to turn her into my most amazing Mistress, yet it refused to allow me. Regardless of how I begged. In fact the suggestions, the methods of stopping me had increased. It choked my words when I wished to mention it, it stopped my movements when I felt safe to pounce.

So frustrating! To see what I wanted, yet be denied it when she arrived. But one day, one day the other would slip, and I would finally taste my sweet, sweet Mistress. One day...

Here you are my Lovelies, and forgive the wait on this release. I needed to wait for that pesky poll to end. But now I should be back to daily releases assuming life does not make it wait a day, or my mind. I hope you enjoy this chapter, he Prices no longer doubling as well haha.

Let's not forget the more mature, and for some reason far more frightening Red hahahaha

As always, much love and cookies. Advertisement Previous
