《My not so Peaceful Dungeon Life》Chapter 9: Getting Ready
Advertisement
Right now I have a chance that might never come again. The fairy sisters are both dead and I have an absurd amount of Dp to spend. The possibilities are limitless. Or at least I can’t count high enough. No, I’m not stupid, it is just a very big number. However I don’t want to have to go to the corner again because of stupidly spending my Dp so I need to only make smart decisions. Right now I have some ideas of what I want to do.
I want to buy rooms and not floors because rooms are more cost efficient. I am going to need a way to talk to the fairies and prove my intelligence. I want to evolve my fairies since they are very powerful, and not a random evolution either, I want to make sure it is good. The other thing I will need to do is research new things since I will be leveling up quite a bit with the floors there should be lots of options. Outside of that I will need some trash mobs. After all it is a dungeon.
There will inevitably be some large purchases during this process so I need to start by increasing my max Mp. So the big question. How do I organize all these rooms? Well I have the answer. The way I see it there are 3 good ways to do this. Option number 1, I put them in a line and make people go all of them. There is an issue that I might go though the other side of the mountain with this though so that brings me to option number two. I make a spiral of rooms so they still have to get through them all. Option 3, my personal favorite, I make a labyrinth of rooms and be a massive troll. The issue with this is if people map out the labyrinth they won’t really get lost. So I just need to hope I get some awesome skill when I make my rooms that will fix this issue. Because I want to get to laugh at people when they take wrong turns.
I’m going with option 3. It is by far the most fun.
While creating the rooms I make multiple branching paths so that the rooms grow out like a tree. When I make the next floor I will make it so only one of these paths are correct. I create a total of 12 more rooms on my third floor so I want to see the result of this.
'Status!'
Dungeon Core lvl 17 Name: Core #293 Stats: Mp: 0/135 Dp: 222 Mp Regeneration: 27 Mp/day Durability 150/150 Skills: Appraisal lvl 3 Dungeon Menu Dungeon Sense Expand Domain lvl 1 Titles: Reincarnated Leader Enemy of the Human Fungus Dungeon
Now, because I am not an idiot, I know that the next floor will give me 85 more max Mp which will give me enough to finally regain my humanity with the ‘Body Manipulation’ skill. So I use another 20 Dp to get a fourth floor. Lucky the fairies are still dead, otherwise they would be chewing me out right now since these will be very expensive in the future, but they are not here right now. After the ground is done shaking I run a quick status check.
‘Status!’
Dungeon Core lvl 17 Name: Core #293 Stats: Mp: 0/220 Dp: 202 Mp Regeneration: 39 Mp/day Durability 200/200 Skills: Appraisal lvl 3 Dungeon Menu Dungeon Sense Expand Domain lvl 1 Titles: Reincarnated Leader Enemy of the Human Fungus Dungeon

Alright great. I now have enough Mp not get my body back. Now, I use 40 Dp to gain the 200 Mp I need. Going to the ‘Research’ option of the ‘Dungeon Menu’, I select ‘Body Manipulation’. As I feel the Mp drain from my body, I start thinking about what I want my new body to be like. I know I want a humanoid body because I need to gain information about this world by infiltrating the human cities. So, the question is what kind of humanoid races are in this world? I don’t want to show up as a Kitsune or something only to find out my species doesn’t exist. So far the only races I know of are Human and Fairy. So, I have two safe choices. Now you might say I should chose human because fairies are extinct. But, that is just so wrong. I am not one of those people who choses human when I play an RPG. It is a fantasy world it is not like I can chose a normal race. So with my old body as the base I begin to manipulate my body so that it looks like a fairy version of my old self.
Skill 'Body Manipulation' has changed to 'Arch Fairy Transformation'
I feel my vision retract back into my body as my body slowly expands with the faint white glow starting to disappear. Looking down I see my naked body just as I remember it. I bring my right hand up to pull my hair forward from behind my ear. After confirming that my hair is white still I have two small issues. One issue is that I am way bigger than fairies are supposed to be. I don’t mean I am tall, I am probably still 142 centimeters tall, but fairies are like 15 centimeters tall. The other issue is that I am in my birthday suit! I don’t actually feel that much shame because I am a dungeon core, but I still feel some! Why couldn’t I have clothes like the fairies did. So my question now is, what race am I? There is only one way to find out.
"Status!"
Arch Fairy lvl 17 Name: Hp:740/740 Mp:1400/1400 Stats: Str: 59 Int: 312 Dex: 73 Spd: 127 Vit: 89 Wis: 92 Luk: 100 End: 72 Skills: Appraisal lvl 3 Expand Domain lvl 1 Dungeon Transormation Arch Fairy Transformation Titles: Reincarnated Fay
So... I have some sweet stats. I might not have as much Hp as muscle man but I am not exactly a tank. It seems my other body doesn't share everything with my dungeon self. For now though I need to name this body. Closing my eyes, I think about the 'Name:' section and say my name with my cute voice,
"Shiro!"
When I reopen my eyes, the section is filled in with my name. The only other thing that makes me curious is my new title.
“Appraisal!”
Fay
A creature of legends that shared knowledge with each other through the 'Fairy Archive'
"Appraisal!"
Fairy Archive
A racial ability that gives all the knowledge of the dead fairies to the user.
It’s a cheat! If only fairies weren’t extinct then I wouldn’t have to explore the towns. I seem to have about an 800 year gap of knowledge meaning fairies went extinct 800 years ago! All of my political knowledge will probably be out of date but this is still very helpful. There are three continents in this world it seems. Patria is the name of the continent I am on and is the largest of the three. It has lots of resources and is inhabited by Beastmen, Humans, Elves, Demons, and Fairies. I kinda doubt that fairies are still in that list though since they are extinct. The smallest of the three continents is now called The Land of Shadows. It is supposedly ruled by a High Lich, who enslaved all of the undead on the continent and killed all of the living beings over 2000 years ago. Since then nobody has really dared to explore the continent. The other continent know as Esilio, was originally inhabited by dragons. Around 10,000 years ago the bloodline of the Dragons became thin and Dragonoids became more common. Now, although the royal family still has pure dragon blood in them, the rest of the population is made of Dragonoids. Around 1000 years ago the Dwarves were exiled from Patria and sent too Esilio. They used to many resources in their experiments with railguns and refused to stop their research. Hold the phone! The Dwarves where researching railguns 1000 years ago!? How advanced are these Dwarves?

Dwarves are a very militaristic race according to the Fairy Archives, and don’t diversify much in their research so they are actually not as advanced as people in my old world in any means except weaponry. The Fairy Archives do not mention much about what happened with the Dwarves after their exile but it is known that they live in harmony with the the Dragonoids because of their mutual hate for the people of Patria not allowing them on their continent.
This Fairy Archive skill is like the best! I can only think of one thing I would rather have and that would be a railgun sniper! That is definitely something I will have to pick up if I ever go to Esilio. Now I have one major issue with this world. If Dwarves and Dragons are exiled how am I supposed to meet all of the fantasy races!? If there is ever a war I know which side I will be on. I will side with the Dwarves(it’s not because I want a railgun sniper I swear). Justice to the fantasy races!
Thanks to the knowledge of this skill I also learned a bit about Dungeon Cores! Apparently there have been fairies who helped dungeons in the past because of their vast knowledge. Most of what I know is the same but apparently one of the legendary 100 floor dungeons (which I learned to be the limit) realized that the ‘Dungeon Menu’ skill is just a guide! You can actually research things that are not in the ‘Research’ option if you have enough knowledge about it. This is very convenient since there is one thing I need to get. Transforming back into a Core #293, I focus on cloths as I pore 100 Dp into my center. As the Dp vanishes a blue screen shows up confirming my success.
Skill 'Create' gained
Because of a surplus of Mp 'Create' has reached lvl 10
It seems my skill is already lvl 10 from the start but I was only hoping for create clothing but I guess I really put to much Dp into it. Switching back into an Arch Fairy, I use as much Mp as I am able to, 500 Mp, to summon a white shirt, a long red skirt, underwear, and a pair of sandals. Once again using to much Mp for something I hope that these will become some op set or something. As long as they don’t become cursed and I can never take them off though I will take what I can get. After a few seconds the air in front of me begins to shimmer and I put my arms out. The outfit falls into my arms and I go to inspect them.
“Appraisal!”
High Quality Small Outfit
A small set of high quality daily clothes. +50 Int when equiped. This set will not get dirty.
It’s amazing! Imagine if I made armor with this! Unfortunately I don’t actually know enough about practical armor only fancy fantasy armor to actually create any. After dressing I have a total of 363 Int. With still 900 Mp left I begin to ponder what else I should make. I ideally would like my weapon to be drawing off of my Int stat and not off of my Str since my Str is pathetically low. I don’t actually have any spells yet and I don’t really want to use anymore Dp so I can’t make some kind of magic focus because I won’t have a way to use it.
Thinking about my knowledge of weapons it is mainly about how to build guns because of a game I played where you had to assemble weapons and bullets. Replacing the gunpowder inside a bullet with concentrated mana I use 50 Mp to summon a magic .50 caliber bullet. Using 500 Mp I create an all white PGM Hecate II and insert the bullet into it. Taking aim at the sturdy wall, I shoot the sniper. After pulling the trigger, My body slides back almost a meter from the recoil. Looking back up towards the wall, there is a hole the size of a fist in the wall with no trace of the bullet left. Take that muscle man you couldn’t even touch my sturdy walls!
Using my last 350 Mp I summon 7 more magic infused bullets and load them into the 7-round clip. Turning the safety back on, I set the Hecate down onto the floor and start to move my wings. Surprisingly moving my wings feels somewhat natural, as if I had them my whole life. This is nice since I don’t really want to have to practice flying. The tips of my feet leave the floor and I look down to find myself flying. Experimenting, I try drifting back and forth as I realize something. Like the fairy sisters, I am not actually flapping my wings and more of just float. Because of this it seems I can get up to high speed quite fast. Although I am curious if I can use this to counter the recoil of a magic sniper I am not going to test it right now. Descending back onto the floor I pick my Hecate back up and put it over my right shoulder so that it doesn’t press against my wings. Trying to fly again, it seems that I can fly just fine with it on my back.
Transforming back into a Dungeon Core, I skip using the research menu and look for a kind of skill or title to hide my wings. Using 10 Dp I gain a new title.
New title 'Concealed' gained
The title automatically goes into effect and my wings disappear from sight. This title is pretty nice since it will stop people form appraising me and makes it impossible to tell that I am an Arch Fairy. All set for my adventure, I just have to wait for the fairy sisters to respawn and tell them I am heading out.
