Ch. 12 Duty

Before Malpetios opened the way outside, just as he traded one pure mana for the Beast King's Elemental Mana.

Q'illtress called out in shock! Dear how did you get so much mana?

As I was still enjoying the feeling of fullness, Q'ill reminded me that we should talk things out, after all no matter what, we are in the same boat her and I.

Knowing that I need to answer I said.

Quill after I finish my Labyrinth let's talk about our future and my current goals ok? Now though I need to focus on building my Labyrinth.

Q'ill nodded in understanding, dear... ,however, she grabbed my core and began shaking it. It's Q'ill!!

Back to the present.

Malpetios had just finished the last few lose ends on his Dungeon, happy how it look he thought about not wasting any time and continue crafting rooms however when he tried to make a tenth room the System made itself known.

[Host can no longer craft trap rooms on this floor. Host 10th room should be a (Boss Room). Sending Mission. Please Standby.]

when i heard i couldn't craft more rooms i panic, the uneasy feeling i got from what Q'ill said had me on edge. However a Boss room! those are a Dungeon signature move with a boss my chances are much higher.

[Mission : Your a Dungeon Malpetios!]

Description: Using Pure Mana enhanced the rank of one of your creatures and crown it the first (Floor Boss)

Mission progress: 0/1

Reward: [Boss Fusion] : Allows the boss to fuse with Dungeon core preventing the death of the creature's will. Can regenerate the body with mana, protects Boss from Mind and illusion attacks.( the will can enter Dungeon core mind scape when killed or for communication).

Looking at the reward it was amazing! this is a total Boss skill immunity to Crowd Control or CC for short! With this my bosses would stomp on any invaders that think they can pull a fast one.

I started to look at my Monsters and was immediately depressed, slime don't have brains so there already immune to mind and illusions. The poison Ivy is even worse it just grows eats and spreads to eat more it doesn't move apart from spreading to a new spot when it's big enough, that zero agility is no joke, though it lunches when ever it bumps into something it quickly ignores the action and stays still again.

Having hit a road block i decided to focus on the elephant in the room that being explaining things to Q'ill.

I find her eating some rainbow fruits all over my now a jungle of Ivy vines and sharp leaves Core Room, taking a look at the fruits i was surprised

[Prismatic Mana Ivy Fruit]

The ripe fruits of a Poison Ivy with a overabundance of Elemental mana. Do to the Ivy feeding on the adaptable mana of the (Prismatic Mana Stone) these fruits can be eaten by any Element Affinity user and recover 3 Mana.

Do to the recovery of mana no matter the affinity these fruits can definitely feed my Dungeon monsters, however something else draws my attention. Each time Q'ill eats a fruit i felt stuffed and quickly dumped my mana unto the Stones with relative ease from habit, this meant that I could let Q'ill eat these fruits as a emergency mana as well as another way to store it.

Q-Q'ill do you like there taste? Having no better way i just started to break the ice.

She answered with a brilliant smile, Yes! They all have different flavors is like eating another fruit each bite he-he. She looked into my Core body, a feeling that she was looking at me in the eye, and ask Should we talk now dear?

I nodded and explain everything I could, from my memories of earth to the System in my head as well as all the memories of that child.

After thinking for a while she started to talk. Dear do you know why we Fairys exist? Our goal is to help the dungeon course to purify the Elemental Mana of the world, however this goal is not without struggles. Many of our species die with the dungeon cores they guarded. the ancient text of our people have said that Prismatic Dungeon Core was seen as the world's child and a hope for it's future they however never lived more than a few days, absorbing all Elemental Mana ment we couldn't protect it for long while the invaders had many Mana core Fragments to sustain themselves. I now know the birth of a Prismatic core is a cruel and nearly impossible achievement, just keeping a stable mind to function would be lucky. Now we have you a Prismatic Dungeon Core helped personally by the planet's will! Though we can't help you directly or the races would take this opportunity to attack the largest Dungeons, protecting you from disaster like the Archmages should be no problem for the Fairy Army's Great Generals, however, the true enemy won't be them but there junior's.

Most creatures cannot live without Elemental Mana, not because they died without it but because they use it to defend and fight each other, removing the polluted elemental mana is like removing the firewood of civilization. This is why all the dungeon cores are seen as a problem by the common folk. They are resisting the worlds will Without knowing their actions only slows the progress of this world, all creatures need mana to grow stronger However Elemental mana is the already processed mana from the world, it is much easier to absorb and use.

You yourself should know why, a Dungeon core has a one-hundred percent mana efficiency you can turn your respected Elemental mana back to the raw form. This however is extremely difficult for the creatures of this world only ten percent of there Elemental mana gets purified naturally, only the genius of these races can purified over fifty percent of there Elemental mana becoming stronger and living longer.

The four Great Generals of the fairy army, are protecting the four largest Dungeon Cores, each of them one of the known element, as long as you're not attacked by one of the higher life forms like the Archmages they can't move. Those of higher standing have long realise that to progress in their magic or martial art mana is needed. However they are more willing to let the dungeons grow to a point a large quantity of mana can be harvest. The World will uses Mana to Protect itself and grow stronger, but her children use her agents that collect Mana for their own use, although this does not harm the world it weakens it of many of the powerful creatures that used to reside on it, they have long passed the world unable to support their massive Mana requirements.

In the past, smaller more numerous creatures begin learning how to use elemental Mana To attack each other, However such creatures are not able to purify the world's mana efficiently, therefore the world gave birth to Mana Core's. The strongest of each race use them for their own benefit and destroy the Cores after unwilling to see the other races grow from it, the world then began to give wills to Mana Core's in the hope the can protect themselves. This leap in fate allow Dungeon Cores to defend themselves no longer a tool that could be used by anyone and destroyed, for this purpose the largest Elemental Dungeon Cores created the Fairy Race. When these powerful entities that gathered and stole from the Cores die, the world reclaims there mana, this takes far too long as all the resources of mana Concentrated in a few individuals, The world has no way to defend itself or grow stronger.

Knowing about Q'ills goal and mission I realized that this world is messed up, I however can't really blame the less talented races. Using the far easier Elemental mana to protect themselves from the geniuses with fifty percent mana efficiency with numbers will prevent them from being oppress, however means that my mission to purify mana steps on the welfare of the masses. The higher rank officials won't bother me unless I become big enough to entice them, I need to think of a way to be usefull for both normal people and the old monsters, if I can make things like (Prismatic Ivy Mana Fruit) then I should be able to slowly imprint the idea that Elemental mana should be traded for mana to me and benefit all.

Slowly the days passed with the feeling of doom starting to stress me out, I finally ask Q'ill about the shackles she mentioned.

She answered in a melancholy voice. The Shackle is a formation made out of Mana Core or Dungeon Core fragments, is a ring around your entrance to block out all Elemental mana from entering your Dungeon. It is used to prevent a Dungeons Growth as well as a recovery station while assaulting it with numbers.

Hearing that I was happy, I made so many traps that punishes numbers, at the same times I felt creeped out by the idea of my own kind bieng use as a tool. Worried about my mana supply I decided to look over my current Dungeon. the first three rooms have water gently going thru the whole floor, in the middle of all three rooms is a river connected to each other on the bottom I made many spikes of stone as sharp as possible, my slimes now resting on the bottom. They have been multiplying rather quickly most evolved into blue slimes there goal is to grab anyone swimming and drown or impale them. The remaining floor has large cut stone slaps at different height and angles to prevent a army rushing inside as well as to punished heavyweights like Knights, the whole room covered in two feet of water has many grooves around the end of the square shape too by too feet cut stone allowing water to be pump out of it by the slimes. A simple arrangement of small tunnels connects to the river on the middle, the slimes flexibility allows for them to go inside and push the air out while pulling the water over reaching the end the water continues to pump by it self do to inertia.

The fourth room leads to the fifth rooms Water blender trap, the cut stone ends and gravel and sand begins, I now have slimes as the bottom most layer of the gravel this will serve the same purpose as air while keeping the sand and gravel in place. I figured out that i can fuse the area of each room together to make a large room, duin that later would allow me to house a monster environment, at this time I have not gotten any wild creatures to come inside I can only guess that I am really in a deserted battle field or something alike. Thinking about becoming a proper Dungeon i thought about exchanging for the Wolf cub, the idea however, should have a second opinion.

Miss Nice, said Malpetios, which monster should I make a boss? I don't really have any good idea the slimes are weak at the beginning and the Ivy just sits there, I was thinking about buying the wolf pup and making it the boss would that work?

Q'ill thought about it and began to explain it. Dear the Wolf cub would evolve to a rank one creature the [Wolf King] this Wolf is fast and strong... However, even though it's powerful by itself a King's real strength is to control a group like his own hands and feet, considering you only have access to one and it can't multiply right now..

I completely forgot that most creatures evolve to the king of there race upon ranking up in most if not all games, although a king is much stronger with no troops are they even a king? That left slimes or Ivys.. wait!

Malpetios asked Q'ill in anticipation. Miss Nice if I make the Poison Ivy evolve can't I feed it reaching rank too or close to it? My thought process was to dump all my Elemental mana into Ivy and let it grow as strong as possible even if it just sits there as a monster it will still protect itself if attacked right?

Q'ill nodded her head, Yes! That mite work feeding them there required mana thru the (Prismatic Mana Stones) Would definitely achieve growth.

With a plan in mind I quickly bring up the poison Ivy up in my statistics screen, a total of thirty-one now listed i pick the oldest one i got from the system and click evolve.

[Host is attempting to Evolve (Poison Ivy) a total of 30 Pure mana is needed for this process. Not enough Pure Mana. Process more.]

I looked at my Statistics.

Mana: 500/500

Elemental mana: 421,474/421,474

Pure mana: 23

Mana stone(full): 18/24

I'll have enough in one more day and that's probably when the big shots will show up, time i just need time... I'll plant the extra Ivys from room six to eight and place the Water puzzle room before the boss room at ten. Hopefully the leaders sent in cannon fodder and give me time or I might be dead.
