[Illsyore's point of view]
For a man, Heaven and Hell could easily be compared with the Love and Wrath of the woman or women he married.
Such was the case of a certain Dungeon Lord who stirred both of them in his wives. The anger coupled with the lust, love, and desire sent me on an upward spiral towards the ninth cloud. It was paved with kisses, moans, scratches, bites, and bone-breaking hugs offered in no peculiar order.
Thankfully, there was no need for me to build another house, I had plenty to spare in the town. We used the closest one we could find, and my wives didn't even bother to ask where and how we got here. It was enough to tell them that I built it after my battle with The Darkness. Meanwhile, I left Tamara to do as she pleased in the town. Like a curious kitten, she went around exploring. The spirit of adventure was strong in this one!
When the fun and joy of the foursome ended, I pretended to be exhausted, otherwise, I feared it would last till the end of the week, and I had another wife waiting for me.
My life can't get any more complicated than this... I thought while keeping my eyes shut and withholding from scratching that infernal itch on the tip of my nose.
Normally, I would have been overjoyed with this and even encouraged them to continue for a while, but I couldn't forget about Zoreya.
“Illsy's asleep?” Shanteya asked as she moved.
The feeling of those beautiful mounds of hers moving on top of me was... divine.
“Yes...” Ayuseya replied while offering me a similar sensation on my back.
“This stupid husband of ours... Who do you think you are fooling?” asked Nanya.
Oh please no! Please no! Please no! Please no! I prayed in my mind.
She bit my neck.
“Yeouch!” I screamed.
“Ara~ He was faking it.” Shanteya said and showed me a smile so cold I could feel it sinking into my bones.
“Erm...” I gulped.
“Idiot!” Nanya pushed me down and straddled me, Ayuseya held my arms while I laid with my back on top of her.
I was sandwiched between two beauties... or more like I was held captive by them.
“Erm... Can we talk about this?” I asked.
“Denied!” Shanteya retorted right before she stole my lips.
Thus, another eight hours went by... and thanks to the stupid [Bond of Trust II] there was plenty of energy left to spare.
Thankfully, there were only three of them to please... for now.
[Ayuseya's point of view]
A normal human would have been completely exhausted after a few hours. The same for an el'doraw and maybe a demon as well, but a draconian would have lasted for at least 12 hours. Still, this was if they were all normal individuals and not a Godlike Dungeon Lord. Because of this, I could say that I was fully satisfied by the end of our... little game. The same could be said about my friends, Nanya and Shanteya.
It was a surprisingly interesting adventure, which I would have normally declined because I wished to keep Illsy to myself, but in the light of recent events, I went with the flow.
After two days of constant love-making and several broken beds, our moment of passion finally came to an end, and we all laid exhausted in Illsy's arms.
“I'm happy you won...” Nanya whispered.
“Me too... The alternative wasn't pleasant.” he replied.
“I see... What happened to Zoreya?” she asked.

“Of this, I'm also curious. How did you make her into your fourth wife?” I asked him and wiggled closer to him.
My chest pushed against his arm, and I softly licked his nape. It was an instinctual play, a way to mark him as mine.
“That tickles!” he laughed and replied with a squeeze of my bottom.
“Ahn~!” I let out a soft moan and drew closer to him.
“Enough you two.” Nanya glared at me.
I stuck out my tongue at her and laid my head down on Illsy's shoulder.
“Ahem! Well, Zoreya was dying... and I couldn't use magic to heal her because of a certain god's stupid Divine Energy interfering. I struck a deal with him, and I was able to eventully heal Zoreya by making her my wife.” he explained briefly.
“What sort of deal?” Shanteya asked.
She was laying on top of him, with her chin resting on his chest.
“He gave me a name. I'm now called Illsyore Deus. Yeah, the pun was intended.” he let out a sigh.
Pun? What pun? I don't get it... I thought.
The name was a rather strange one, but it didn't ring any bells for me.
“I let him become my god or something like that, then I had to accept Zoreya as my wife while knowing she was going to serve her god. It's... complicated, but that's probably the gist of it.” he shrugged.
“I see... a contract of sorts.” said Nanya.
“So where is she now?” I asked him.
“Inside my Inner Mind. Something must have happened when I healed her because when she wakes up, she turns red and then faints... That's why I came over to ask for your help. Maybe one of you has an idea?” he explained.
“I see...” said Shanteya as she looked up at him.
“What?!” Nanya got up and looked at him with a furrowed brow.
“Erm...” Illsy looked at her with a wry smile.
“Why didn't you tell us sooner?!” she retorted.
“I tried! Seven times already, but between kiss-stealing and moans, I barely had a chance to finish the idea even ONCE!” he retorted.
“No excuses! Let's go! Now!” Nanya ordered.
She wasn't being mean, she was just worried about the crusader. After her little moment of lust madness went away, and she reaffirmed her position as a woman and part of this harem, she was able to think clear.
“I agree. Let us go.” I nodded and got up.
It was a bit sad to part with the warmth of his body, but from now on, I was thinking of requesting to sleep by his side every night.
“Alright.” Illsy nodded.
We quickly got dressed, although, our mixed scent still lingered around us. We didn't mind it though, it was the proof that Illsy belonged to us. He was our mate... our husband.
A moment later, we were absorbed by Illsy.
[Nanya's point of view]
Just thinking about the past two days with Illsy made me go all 'funya~ funya~' and feel weak in my knees. Well, I was probably exaggerating just 'little' because it had been so long since I last made love to Illsy. To be completely honest, this time around felt like it was the best of them all. As for the reason behind this... well... I think it was because of The Darkness. With that nasty part of him gone, Illsy felt different in a good way.
It was one of those things only a wife could tell about her husband; like when he was feeling down or when something good happened to him. It was a subtle thing... a very subtle thing.

When our fairly long moment of passion came to an end, we returned to his Inner Mind to check up on Zoreya. He apparently made her his wife in order to save her life, or so we were told, but my intuition was telling me that wasn't everything. It may have just began, but there was certainly a spark of love for that woman inside Illsy's heart. It was just enough to rile up my desire to keep a good hold on my idiotic lover.
“Here we are... As I said. When she wakes up, she faints again.” Illsy told us.
This... Is he serious? I asked myself as I looked with big eyes at the poor naked woman floating in this vast empty space.
“She's been asleep all this time?” Shanteya asked.
“I left her in a suspended animation state. She's safe.” he shrugged.
This idiotic husband of ours couldn't see what was wrong with this picture. Or maybe he didn't want to see it? Either way, this was wrong. This was definitely wrong.
“Strange... I wonder why?” Ayuseya asked.
I slowly looked back at her with a blank expression on my face.
“Really?” I asked.
“What's wrong, Nanya?” she asked looking back at me.
“Really?” I repeated myself.
“Pardon me, but I don't understand.” she furrowed her brow.
“Sigh...” I shook my head and rubbed my temples.
Idiots. All of them are idiots! I told myself.
“If you know something about this, you should tell us.” Shanteya spoke.
I looked at her and squinted my eyes.
“Nanya? Please. This is important.” said Illsy.
The idiots were all looking at me as if I was holding the secret of the entire Universe and didn't wish to share it with them. I could only stare back at them and wonder just how much did they bothered with actually taking a closer look at this whole situation.
“You really want to know?” I asked them while curving my lips up into a smile.
“Yes! Please!” Illsy replied nodding.
“You really REALLY want to know?” I asked again.
“Yes!” he nodded fast.
“Sigh... All right. Come over here. Closer.” I urged him until he was just a palm away from me.
All of them were waiting anxiously.
“Alright... Here it is.” I took deep breath and then shouted at the top of my lung right in his ear “SHE'S NAKED!”
“Yeaouch!” he yelped and jumped back, rubbing his ear.
Even Shanteya and Ayuseya flinched.
Well, it was to be expected. The answer was so obvious it was literally in plain sight, and I literally had no idea why none of them was able to figure it out. It was the same as putting the answer to the riddle in the question of the riddle itself. Something like: What animal barks, howls, and wags its tail like a hornless Dayuk?
Unfortunately, these fellows surprised me by answering: a cat.
Letting out a sigh, I shook my head and approached the naked woman. As far as I could tell, Illsy healed her nicely. There were no marks or scars left behind. It was as if she never suffered any sort of injury in her entire life. Then again, to say Illsy messed up something during the healing process was also a bit unbelievable. He healed me, Ayuseya, Shanteya, and even Tamara from some rather dreadful injuries, the likes of which would have certainly left a scar of sort behind.
The only reason I could think of her suddenly fainting after waking up was because of the fact that she was a shy fellow who found herself butt naked in front a man. If I was in her place, I would have kicked Illsy right between the legs. Well, now I would avoid that area because even if the head on his shoulders stopped working, I didn't wish for the same fate on the other one.
“Illsy. Wake her up and then get out.” I told him while he was still trying to understand why she kept fainting.
“But before you do, bring me the chest with a small diamond shape above the lock.” Ayuseya said.
“Huh? What chest?” Illsy blinked surprised when he looked back at her.
“Among my chest, there's one with a single diamond symbol carved above the lock; not two or three, just one. Can you get it for me?” she asked.
“Sure... I'll go and send it your way, but do I really need to go?” he asked as he looked back at me.
“Yes. We're not being mean to you, Illsy. But I have a feeling Zoreya is of the really shy type without her armor on. Go outside and play with Tamara or something.” I replied and then gently tapped his cheek.
“Alright... I'll go.” he nodded. “But before I do so.” he smirked and then stole my lips.
I let him, then he stole Ayuseya's and Shanteya's as well.
After he flew away, Zoreya showed signs of waking up.
[Shanteya's point of view]
My~ what could I say? The fact that Nanya 'snapped' was a good thing. Illsy's embrace was wonderful, and the following hours were a true bliss. As for what ensued afterwards, it was a bit unexpected.
In my opinion, I saw nothing wrong with the fact that Zoreya was naked, but maybe that was because we spent the last two days like that. When I was around Illsy, it didn't really matter if I had clothes on or not. But yes, any other woman wouldn't have felt the same way around him.
“Maybe because Zoreya was together with us for such a long time, we never actually gave it a second thought?” Ayuseya asked.
“It could be.” Nanya replied with a shrug.
The chest requested by the draconian came flying and stopped a few meters away from me.
I don't think Illsy was able to do this when The Darkness was still here. I thought.
“I asked for this specific chest because I know for a certain that I have a gown in there that she could use. It's made of a thick fabric. For me it's a bit too short, but it should be perfect for her.” Ayuseya said while searching through the chest.
“Is it similar to the one you wore during that first night?” I asked her as I remembered the rather daring nightgown she wore to 'please' Illsy.
“Ara? Now that I remember, I should wear that more often. I think Illsy loves enticing clothes.” she let out a giggle.
Looking back at Zoreya, I could see now the 'reason' why Illsy wanted to make her his wife and not a slave or a pet. This human woman had a rather generous chest size, and her figure was truly captivating. If she put on a frilly dress and wore a crown on top of her head, you would think she was the princess of some foreign country.
“A rival? Definitely a rival...” muttered Nanya as she poked the woman's chest.
How cute! She's jealous! Well, she does have the smallest cup out of the three of us. I wonder if Zoreya's are bigger? I think they are... Ah~ Poor Nanya. I smiled inwardly while I thought about this.
“Mn... Where... Where am I?” Zoreya asked as she finally opened her eyes and looked around.
When her gaze wandered over her own naked form, she let out a cute 'EEP!' and covered herself with her hands while blushing strongly.
“Wh-why a-am I-I n-n-n-naked?” she asked.
Her eyes were spinning.
“Here you go! Wear this for now!” Ayuseya said as she offered her the orange satin gown, which was like a one-piece for her.
“Erm... Thank you.” she put it on.
“What's the last thing you remember?” Nanya asked.
After she got dressed, she looked back at us, and with a furrowed brow, she replied “Illsyore... looking at me... while... I was n-n-n-naked.” she stuttered at the end while her cheeks went full red.
“How cute~.” I said and giggled.
“A rather innocent one, isn't she?” Ayuseya remarked.
Zoreya looked down embarrassed.
“W-Without m-my armor, I'm a bit... shy.” she replied.
“Interesting.” I said rubbing my chin.
It should be fun to help Illsy tame her. I'm sure she'll moan quite cutely too! I thought.
“Shanteya?” Ayuseya called out to me while I was scheming... I mean planning.
“What is it?” I asked with a smile.
“You are drooling.” she squinted her eyes at me.
“Ara? Pardon me. I was thinking about... food.” I giggled and looked away.
That was dangerous. I told myself.
“Well, leaving those two aside. Zoreya, are you feeling alright? Is there anything wrong with your body?” Ayuseya asked.
“Yes, but I'm afraid Melkuth has abandoned me.” she gazed down with a sad look in her eyes.
“Why do you say so?” I asked.
Her story was a bit different from the one told to us by my husband.
“Since I became Illsy's wife... it means that I have forsaken the oaths I took as an Apostle of Melkuth. I am no longer fit to wield his Shield.” she told us.
She already calls him 'Illsy'. My~, just for how long has she been in love with him? I thought.
“I wonder about that.” Nanya said rubbing the back of her head.
“For now, if there's nothing wrong with her, we should let Illsy know and return to the outside world.” suggested Ayuseya.
“Agreed.” nodded Nanya.
“Outside world?” Zoreya looked at us confused.
“Right now, if you haven't noticed, we're floating in a seemingly endless space.” said Ayuseya.
“It appears so... Where are we?” she asked as she looked around while trying not to move too much.
“Don't worry, you'll get used to it.” I told her.
“To put it bluntly, we're currently inside Illsy... and don't take that the wrong way. He didn't eat us.” explained the demoness.
“Erm... I don't think I follow.” she shook her head.
“It's similar to a separate dimension in which Dungeons store their materials.” I said.
“Hm...” she furrowed her brow.
Poor girl, she must be so confused right now... All of us were at the beginning, but she'll get used to it. I thought.
“Illsy! You can take all of us out now!” shouted Nanya.
In the following moment, a bright light covered all of us, and we were taken to the outside world. There, the town built by Illsyore, the Godlike Dungeon Lord, was spread before our very eyes.
Amazing... I thought.
[Illsyore's point of view]
Of all the things that could happen, to be kicked out of my Inner Mind by my own wives was something I never expected. Well, how was I supposed to have known that Zoreya's embarrassment towards being naked in front of me was the actual reason she kept fainting like that?
“I honestly had no idea! It was logical, but not for me at that time!” I shouted at the top of my lungs.
Well, screaming at the clouds didn't do much to help relieve my stress. At the very least, I knew that while I was fooling around with my wives, Zoreya was safe and sound in the stasis I left her in. For her, time had stopped... well not exactly, but close enough.
Letting out a sigh, I spread my Dungeon Territory and searched for my stray cat. I wanted to pet something, and her fluffy fur was going to be just PERFECT. But if I caught a Dayuk, I was going to wrangle him up as well.
Meanwhile, I also kept an eye out for anything out of place in this town. It had been a few days since my battle with The Darkness, so there was a chance curious adventurers lingered around to complete their scouting missions.
I also took the liberty of fixing my clothes and absorbing the remains of Zoreya's broken armor. There was also her shield, but there was no way I could lift it, right?
Then I remembered what Melkuth told me when he named me, that I sort of became his follower.
“It can't be that simple, right?” I thought.
With shrug, I walked over to Melkuth's Shield and picked it up.
It was as light as a feather.
“Huh? Strange. Is this thing broken?” I wondered.
“MASTER!” the cat's call was heard right before she jumped in my arms and rubbed her furry head on my chest.
“Easy there, Tamara! I'm back, relax!” I smiled and petted her.
[Holy God of Big Boobs' point of view]
After the long battle against The Darkness, the balance of the Heavens was finally restored, at least for now, but I feared that my follower's journey had just begun.
At the moment, I was helping myself to a cup of tea in Melkuth's office. He was having a big cup of coffee. This day stressed him out a bit more than he had expected.
“I still can't believe it...” grumbled the god.
“What?” I asked as I took a sip of my drink and peeked through one of my portals at my wife's big boobs.
How lovely! My angel's taking a bath! Those big voluptuous mountains of hers are being soaked in the foam of Divine Soap making her figure divine! Eh? Did she just look my way? Why are you picking up your bow? Wait! Wait! I thought, but before I had the chance to close the portal, she let loose an arrow aimed at my forehead. “AGYAAA!” I screamed in pain.
“Idiot.” grumbled the God of War as he calmly sipped his coffee.
“But... But I don't understand! How did she know I was peeping?!” I retorted.
“Woman's intuition against perverts?” shrugged the god.
“There's no such thing!” I shouted at him.
“The arrow in your head says otherwise.” he pointed out.
“Ugh... Help me out!” I cried.
“No.” he retorted and looked away.
Melkuth was gazing back at the mortal world. To be more specific, he was spying on Illsyore, the newest recruit to his long list of followers.
“Hm? What is he doing?” he said all of a sudden.
“Ugh... This bloody thing!” I grumbled as I struggled to pull the arrow out of my forehead.
My wife was cruel, but alas, not many knew her as I did... with all those perfectly delicious details! Once I returned to her side, I was going to stick like glue to her chest! But of course, I wasn't going to neglect my other wife either.
“Hey! You can't be serious! Only a TRUE Apostle can pick up that shield. Besides Zoreya, you....” he said something then he stopped and froze.
“What's wrong?” I asked him.
“WHAT THE BLEEP!” he shouted at the top of his lungs.
“It's not nice to use such words.” I said while shaking my head, the arrow still stuck in my forehead.
“He picked up my shield?! He picked up my shield! How?! That's not possible! NO! NO! NO!” he smashed the cup on his desk, spilling all the hot coffee on himself. “AARGH! SON OF A...! OF ALL THE BLEEP BLEEP BLEEP!” he cursed.
I shrugged.
“You'll get over it. Maybe he's a bit special when it comes to Divine Items?” I asked.
“HOW?! There shouldn't be anything that makes him SPECIAL?!” he shouted back.
“Who knows?” I shrugged.
There were a lot of things about Illsyore that simply didn't fit in the 'Normal' category of this world.
[Illsyore's point of view]
After my wives returned, they found me sitting down at the entrance of Melkuth's Temple and petting Tamara. She was overflowing with cuteness and fluffiness!
Do I have a nekomini fetish? I wondered and got slightly frightened by the idea.
“Ah! There you are!” I lifted my hand up.
“We're back, Illsy. Hm, is Tamara sleeping?” Nanya asked.
“No, she's just very relaxed right now.” I shook my head and scratched the fellow behind her ears.
“Funyaaa~!” she stretched her tail in joy.
“What a cutie!” Ayuseya said.
“Zoreya is fine.” Shanteya told me.
“Is that so... Erm... Where is she?” I asked.
“What do you mean? She's right...” Nanya looked to her side. “Huh?”
There was no one there.
“It's not scratched! It's fine! Ah!” Zoreya said.
We all turned our head and saw the glorious crusader checking the Shield of Melkuth in her orange one-piece dress. Without a bra to keep hold of those big mountains of hers, the jiggle reached dangerous levels.
Me likey! But then again, how did she get there without me noticing? I thought.
“Zoreya?” Shanteya asked.
“Hm?” the woman looked up at her and then saw me. “EEP!” she ran behind the shild.
“Huh?” I blinked surprised.
“So it was Illsy's fault.” nodded Nanya.
“What?” I blinked surprised.
“Illsy's fault.” said Shanteya.
“Definitely.” nodded Ayuseya.
“It's always Master's fault...” said Tamara.
“Even the cat's speaking against me.” I squinted my eyes at the furry fellow and then vigorously scratched her as revenge.
“FUNYAAA~!” she cried out in pleasure.
The plan backfired, so I stopped.
Letting out a sigh, I rubbed the back of my head and looked at the hidden crusader.
“You know... I'm not a boogeyman. Why are you hiding from me?” I asked.
“B-Because...” she stuttered.
“Because?” I raised an eyebrow.
“You are a man... and I am woman...” she replied.
“You don't say.” I smiled.
“Erm... but I...” she peeked from around the shield.
Cute... I thought.
“But you what?” I asked.
“I don't have my armor on!” she said and hid back behind the shield.
“Huh?” my brain stopped.
“She's super shy.” Nanya remarked.
“No kidding.” I nodded.
Although, why didn't she act the same way back then when I stumbled upon her while she was bathing? I thought.
“Can you make an armor for her?” asked Shanteya.
“Erm? Do I have to? She quite beautiful in that one-piece and...” they were all glaring at me “I got it. One sturdy, bulky armor coming right up!” I replied.
A few moments later, I returned with her previous armor, now repaired and in working condition.
“This is only temporary. I'll make you a better one as soon as I can.” I said as I was made to turn around while she put it on, even if she was already hidden by that big shield of hers.
“Thank you.” she replied only after she was done.
“The old Zoreya is back.” Nanya remarked.
“Yup.” I nodded when I saw her.
“I am grateful for your help, Dungeon Lord. Although, how did you make it so I can carry Melkuth's shield as well?” she asked me.
“You... Call me Illsy! I'm your husband!” I retorted.
“No. That's... too embarrassing.” she looked away.
I squinted my eye at the woman wearing full-plate armor.
Embarrassing? How?! Ugh... she's going to be a pain. I groaned.
“Don't worry, Illsy. We'll make sure to train her well.” said Shanteya.
“Train?” I raised an eyebrow at her.
“Pardon me, I mean... teach. Yes, teach her well!” she giggled.
The assassin is scheming something. I thought.
“May I ask where we are? This looks like a town, but... where are the people?” Zoreaya asked me.
“I built this place after our battle. Well, I'm all cured now thanks to you. Melkuth made me into his follower, gave me a name, turned you into a High Apostle, yada yada... stuff happened.” I shrugged.
“That was lazy.” Nanya remarked.
I let out a sigh, apologized, then I began to explain everything that happened from the moment the battle began until now.
“So that's why I can still use Melkuth's Shield? Thank you, Dun...” she was about to say those words again, but I glared at her. “Illsy...” she blushed and tried to hide in her armor.
“So, what are we going to do now?” asked Nanya.
“I have an idea about that.” I smirked.
“What?” she asked raising an eyebrow.
“Well, with me being brought back to Level 1 and with the new addition to our group, I decided it was about time we all trained together!” I declared.
“Trained?” Shanteya tilted her head to the left.
“Yes. A few years offshore on a remote island where the former dungeon of a very old Primordial Dungeon resides!” I declared.
“What makes you so sure it's still there?” Nanya asked.
“I don't, but we can try. Not like we have anything else to do besides lots and lots of love?” I shrugged and looked at Zoreya.
Her cheeks turned red and like tortoise, she hid inside her armor.
“Oh no, you don't! You're not touching the poor girl!” Nanya warned me.
“I was joking, relax!” I replied lifting my hands up. “But still, Zoreya, I'm your husband now, so feel free to think of me as your man, and I will think of you as my woman. All bounds between us are gone. You can ask me anything, and I'll answer you. I promised Melkuth I'll take care of you and love you, so I'm not planning on going against him. Leaving that god aside, these are also my true feelings!” I told her with a smile.
She nodded once slowly.
She's too shy... I thought while wondering what sort of can opener I should use on her.
Letting out a sigh, I then took out a small white crystal from my Inner Mind. It was similar to the one I used to teleport ourselves to this continent. The old Primordial Dungeon desperately tried to hide this crystal from me and all those other Dungeons, but once I merged with The Darkness, all of their memories became mine and their knowledge flowed inside me. Among all the useless crap that could be called my 'inheritance' from them, I was able to find this thing.
Talk about luck... I thought as I looked at the crystal.
“Is that a...” Nanya spoke but stopped mid-sentence.
“Yes, a teleportation crystal. I need to fill it with Magic Energy first and then we can leave this place.” I said with a nod.
“What will happen to this town after we are gone?” Ayuseya asked as she looked around.
From her point of view, it may have looked as though I put a fairly decent amount of material and time into building it. Thus, abandoning it all of a sudden would be seen as a waste, but this was far from the truth. Thanks to my [Ultimate Creation Kit] skill, a construction project that should have taken months to complete barely took me a couple of minutes now. As for the required materials, there were plenty of them in the storage section of my Inner Mind.
“The humans will probably use it as a replacement for the one destroyed by The Darkness.” I replied in a calm tone of voice.
“Illsy...” Zoreya took a step forward and looked into my eyes. “About those killed by The Darkness... How do you feel about their deaths?” she asked.
This was a very serious question.
Letting out a long sigh, I looked up at the sky and replied “Melkuth didn't tell me anything about it, so he probably forgave me... But...” I looked into her eyes “Those deaths were caused by The Darkness, not me. Both you and I tried to stop him from bringing harm to others. So even if he used my body to do such terrible deeds, why should I consider myself guilty for his crime?”
“That is true... The Darkness isn't you, so paying for his crimes would be...” she furrowed her brow as she spoke but didn't finish her words.
“If the families of the victims or the nobles of this country heard you say this, they would never accept it. Their ways demand for someone to be held to blame for this disaster and suffer as retribution for all those lost lives.” Ayuseya said in a calm tone of voice.
Her point of view was that of a noble, someone placed on the high ladder of society, but for me, this meant nothing. I shrugged in front of this statement, denying all guilt and blame.
Maybe, if I were to look at this situation through the eyes of Illsyore before the merging with The Darkness, I would have felt quite bad about this and would have wanted to do something to change things. However, I would have ended up living a life filled with self blame and guilt for matters that were far beyond my control. It wasn't me who pulled the trigger of the gun. It wasn't me who laughed and enjoyed the deaths of all those humans... No, the one who did all of that was The Darkness. And if I were to go down the tree of blame... the ones who ultimately were to blame for this disaster were none other than the many adventurers who mercilessly destroyed all those Dungeons whose remains formed my current body.
When looking at it from that point of view, then why should I, Illsyore, take the blame for all of this mess, when I was also one of the victims?
“Do you see me as the one to blame for all of this, Zoreya?” I asked the crusader.
Without hesitating even for a second, she shook her head and replied “No! I do not believe you are the one who needs to be held responsible for this... I was just worried about how the aftermath of this disaster might affect you.” she showed me a small smile at the end.
“Indeed, we are just worried. No one is blaming you, my love. If they do, I'll make sure to know a draconian's wrath!” declared Ayuseya.
“And don't forget about me! I'll stand by your side, Illsy, no matter what!” Nanya smirked.
“I agree.” Shanteya's reply was the shortest, but her soft smile was sincere.
“Nya~ Blame never helped anybody catch fish... Better to think of ways to catch fish than blame the fisher for not catching fish... Nya~ I'm hungry...” Tamara said while lazily laying on my lap.
I let out a sigh. Even the cat said something smart... although in a very weird way.
In the end, it turned out that I was wrong.
For a moment there, I actually thought they were thinking of me as the one who had to hold the blame for this mess. I was technically merged with The Darkness, and from another point of view, his mistakes were now mine. Still, I was Illsyore, not The Darkness. He was merged with me, absorbed by me, but I remained as the one and only active mind. There was no more Darkness at this point in time, so considering myself either responsible or the one to blame for his past sins was illogical.
“Well, let's leave it at that, shall we? I left them a brand new town in return for all the damage The Darkness did, and we even stopped him, so case solved!” I laughed.
The women looked at each other for a moment and then let out a sigh of relief.
They were really worried about me, weren't they? I thought.
“How long will it take you to charge the crystal?” Nanya asked.
“I don't know. Let me see...” I said and then poured my Magic Energy in it at the same rate I was restoring it. I did this because I didn't want to suffer from the backlash of an empty pool.
After about 20000 Magic Energy Points, the crystal was ready.
“Done.” I announced.
“That was quick!” Nanya said surprised.
“I have far more Magic Energy than before.” I explained.
“Shall we?” Shanteya said.
“Let us proceed then!” Ayuseya nodded.
“I will join you as well...” Zoreya said.
“Great! Then hold onto me!” I told them.
They all embraced me at the same time, barely leaving me any room to move. Zoreya kept looking away, she had yet to calm down.
“Let's go then!” I said and activated the crystal.
A bright, shinning light covered all of us, and just like last time, I felt the world around me changing swiftly. The land vanished from under my feet, the space expanded around me, then contracted again. The air was brought to a stop and time simply stood still for us. A moment, maybe two passed before the world returned to normal. How this happened, I still couldn't figure it out, there were some equations and ways of contorting the flow of Magic Energy that simply eluded me, at least... for now.
The teleportation went smoothly and didn't drop us off in the middle of the sky like last time. When we opened our eyes, instead of the small ghost town in the middle of the desert, we saw the wild forest of a tropical island. With the last drops of Magic Energy from the crystal being spent, we began to feel the soft breeze of the ocean, the scent of salt water, the heat of the sun, and finally... the sand under our feet.
“The beach...” Nanya said surprised.
We reached our destination, the beach of an abandoned island no Dungeon, man, or monster knew off. We reached a place hidden from the eyes of the world and maybe even those of the gods. This was the dungeon island created by none other than the Primordial Dungeon who was now just a part of my body. It was a place that didn't follow the traditional laws of the Dungeons because instead of regular monsters, each and every living being in this place was a Boss of some kind.
From a normal point of view, it was a terrifying place, but for someone of our level of power... it wasn't that bad actually.
“RAAARGH!” the roar of one of the bosses was heard, causing the whole island to shake.
Everyone took up a defensive stance.
“What was that?” Zoreya asked surprised.
“I have no idea...” I replied.
Another roar was heard from our left, and a screech up in the sky as a giant bird flew down and attacked something in the forest. Sounds of fierce battle could be heard while the forest around the two mighty beasts was ripped apart, sending several boulders and trees flying up in the sky, landing all over the place.
“Everyone be on your guard!” shouted Nanya as she dodged an incoming tree trunk.
On it, I noticed the teeth mark from a very large predator.
I gulped.
I wonder if this was a bad idea? I thought.
The giant bird we saw earlier, which looked EXACTLY like a crow with brown and white feathers instead of black, was thrown through the trees and landed in the ocean behind us. A three meters tall tsunami formed and approached us. Without waiting another second, Nanya jumped forward and punched a hole in it. Then came the roar of the beast the giant crow was battling with and thundering footsteps could be heard coming from the forest behind us.
I gulped again as I looked at the beast approaching us. The trees were pushed aside and out came a T-Rex.
“That's a dinosaur!” I said pointing at him like a five years-old kid.
“RAAAWR!” the fierce roar sent chills down my spine.
The next moment, the T-Rex shot red laser beams out of its eyes and the crow counterattacked with a breath of ice magic.
While this battle between giants took place before us, we were all staring at it with dead fish eyes. Our minds came to a stop as we tried to understand if this was reality or just some weird dream.
Eventually, the crow dodged and tried to get away by swimming out into the ocean, but just then... a huge shark swum up and ate it in one bite. The giant crow with a wingspan of 40 meters and a length of 30 meters was chomped down by a creature with a length over 100 meters. But the fun part about it was the fact that the huge shark used portals... It literally swam upwards through a big blue portal and vanished.
The T-Rex began to whimper in fear when it saw the scene and then fled into the island.
When we looked out at ocean, we saw an even crazier sight. A big water snake with a length of almost 1 km was calmly swimming alongside its heard of other 50 such snakes. Between us and them were a bunch of these portal jumping giant sharks that prayed on the flock of giant crows in the sky, which numbered in the hundreds.
“Erm...” I said as I was at a loss of words.
Things were not as I expected them to be... The Primordial's last memory of this place was of small, weak bosses even Tamara could defeat, while the more dangerous ones were deeper inside the island. It appeared that at one point between the Primordial's death and the present, the dungeon island evolved?
Looking back at my wives, Nanya asked me with a forced smile. “Illsy? How are we going to get off this island?” she asked me.
“Erm... According to the Primordial's memories, this island sort of resets every decade and adds more bosses... After a certain number of them gathers, they are absorbed by the dungeon and become a far more powerful boss. Killing all the bosses here will grant us free passage to the outside world. The barrier will be down and we'll be able to leave peacefully.” I replied with a smile.
“Barrier?” Shanteya asked cocking her head.
“Yeah... a very powerful one that uses the Life Force and Magic Energy of all the bosses to stay active. If you attack it directly, you will be attacked by all of them at the same time.” I replied.
“So... in other words... We have to kill all the Legendary Bosses on this island so we can leave?” Ayuseya asked.
“Huh? Legendary?” I asked surprised.
“Yes, Illsy... Monsters or bosses that are thought to be impossible to defeat by a regular Supreme are called Legendary because they appear only and only in legends...” she told me with a forced smile that sent chills down my spine.
I gulped.
“The giant lizard that shot beams out of its eyes is said to be a very powerful Legendary Monster that once terrorized the third continent until ALL the Supremes on the continent joined forces in order to defeat it.” Nanya said and let out a sigh.
“The crow is mentioned as the Sky God who attacks ships out at sea. No one has been able to defeat one as of yet...” Ayuseya said.
“The snakes out at sea are told to be monsters who feast on entire islands. It was said that there was once a fourth continent, but three of these snakes ate it... and now, we have over 50 of them calmly swimming around this island.” Shanteya said.
“If people knew a place like this existed...” Zoreya said shaking her head and refused to think of what would happen if all of these monsters were set free.
“Well... There's nothing to worry about! The barrier will keep all of them inside!” I said with a confident smile.
“Yes, together with us!” Nanya shouted.
“Erm...” I furrowed my brow.
I wanted to reply something, but I had the feeling I didn't think this whole thing through. Well, I had no idea we would encounter such powerful monsters... I was thinking more around the lines of Minotaurs, Giants, maybe one or two such Legendary beasts, but definitely not entire herds and packs of them.
“Well? What do you have to say for yourself?” asked Nanya.
“What can I say? Oopsie?” I forced a smile.
She let out a groan.
“Hey! Look at the bright side!” I showed them a smile and stepped back a bit, getting in the water all the way to my ankles. “We're at the beach! We're out of that desert!” I laughed.
“Out of frying pan and into the fire as they say, right?” Shanteya shook her head and let out a sigh.
“More like volcano...” Nanya groaned.
“Hm...” I furrowed my brow and looked at them.
Things weren't looking that bad from my point of view, but looking at things now, instead of just a year, we would end up spending at least five trying to slaughter all the bosses here. All the experience and materials we would get as a result of this was going to be amazing! But yes, the danger level did go up by a few notches.
“We need a plan... and to be careful. This island is very dangerous!” warned Zoreya as she looked out at the Legendary sea serpents.
“We'll handle it!” I said with confidence.
“How do you know that?” Nanya asked raising an eyebrow at me.
“Because, my lovely wife, I can still do this: COLLY TOS!” I shouted at the top of my lungs and lifted my hands up in the sky.
Four pairs of panties appeared out of nowhere above me and started gently floated down.
With a smile, I said “It's a success! This spell finally works!”
“HOW IS THIS A SUCCESS?!” Nanya, Ayuseya, and Shanteya shouted at the same time and punched me in the head, burying my head in the shore.
What good was it to have a powerful Magic Armor if it didn't even stop my wife's punch?
“Nya~! Frilly!” Tamara jumped up to catch them.
Well, she was one of the victims of this perverted spell as well. As for Zoreya, she wasn't wearing any to begin with...
Thus, our first year on this island filled with bosses instead of regular monsters began! I was certain we would succeed in exterminating all of them in due time, and once we were done, I would finally have all the power and materials needed to build Illsyore's Magic Academy!
