Ch. 25 The calm before the storm.
"MALPETIOS! Please wake up! you must hold on... Please, please be ok." I could hear Q'ills voice, she was crying and repeatedly asking me to wake up.
I was so sleepy, so tired... My field of vision was now a foot or so long with nothing but darkness past it. Something was on the tip of my groggy mind, what was it? "Ah! Mana, I need Mana!"
Forcing my tired and fuzzy vision to focus, I enter my Inventory and summon a (Prismatic Mana stone), the action itself made me feel dead from exhaustion, I was fading to black again, just before I started to curse the system for not restoring more of my mental strength, Q'ill quickly grabbed it and I started to fill better.
*Malpetios! Your ok, I was so worried, you stupid child! How can you nearly kill yourself using such a high-level Dungeon Spell?* Her voice was worried and full of helplessness.
My core started to float off the ground again, levitation and my other basic functions now returning to normal.*Sorry I didn't mean to cause so much trouble, I just wanted to protect... us.*
I took a look at her and was shocked, she was paled like something had sucked the life out of her. *What happened to you? Why are you so pale?*
She looks at me Speechless. *Silly child, don't you remember I am connected to you?* She was dumbfounded at my stupid question.
I had forgotten that I am now Q'ills life support, using Mana Song drain both mine and her resources, explaining her pale complexion.
*Oh... I forgot sorry!* My stupid remarks aside, I quickly checked my statistics and saw I was getting about twenty-five Elemental Mana a second, I quickly remembered that Q'ill no longer has Elemental Mana due to the Forbidden spell.

Something seems off though? I check the Prismatic stone description.
[Prismatic Mana stone]
A stone created during the process of a Prismatic Dungeon Cores birth can be used to store any mana. (1 mana is worth 50 Elemental mana will convert to users affinity Element and convert other elements to mana at a rate of 50 Elemental mana for 1 mana.)
Capacity: 1810/2000
Oh! That's right, my stones don't supply mana, they only supply whatever Elemental Mana the user can absorb! Although this is meaningless for me with 100% conductivity, Q'ill, on the other hand, must have 50%.
*Q'ill thank you, I'll absorb the mana now, it will be faster!* Her pale face nodded, with her conformation, I focus on the stone slowly filling back to full, while not forgetting to send her the Purified Mana.
After four mana stones, my Mana was full again and I couldn't send more to Q'ill, I took a quick look at my stats.
Prismatic Dungeon Core: Malpetios
Mana: 500/500
Elemental mana: 385,500/421,474
Pure mana: 0
Mana stone(full): 12/24
With both of our conditions stable I decided to take a look at my Dungeon, the moment I dispersed my senses throughout my halls a large number of notifications appeared.
[Host has killed 241unique lifeforms. Do to Host Dungeon Domain 241 Life Crystal's have been condensed]
[Host has unlocked (Magic Wood). (Magic jewelry). (Magic Book). (Potion: Elemental Fire restoration). (Magic Glass).]
[Monster (Slime) has evolved into (Mirror Slime). Monster (Slime) has evolved into (Snow Slime).]
I skim over the notifications and only focus on the new ones, skipping over the new metal and water slimes. I looked at the new stuff my Creation skill had unlocked and decided to talk to the system.
System, stop giving me useless updates like Magic whatever unlocked, just categorize them as Witchcraft if it has anything to do with crafting equipment or accessories of any kind, I mean Seriously I could have unlocked magic wood by just Making a staff out of my Riptide sticks.

As for potions, I feel like I can make them as long as I get my hands on the materials, in other words, their recipes right? Place them collectively under Alchemy as well as anything related, like that Magic glass.
[Host request received. Modifying... complete. The host has received [Witchcraft] and [Alchemy] skills.]
With that settled I decided to use my (Life Crystal) to the point Q'ill can go anywhere she wants in my boss room, leaving 220 Crystals.
I focus my attention on Q'ill and asked. "How long was I out of it? I can still feel the effect of (Mana Song), I want to quickly fix problems in my Dungeon."
"I say about nine hours, but dear your Mana is limited do you have enough to remake your Dungeon like this?" She looked at me worried, and she was right, I have already used over 50% of my Mana savings.
With determination, I said, "no matter what if I don't change something they will just waltz right into my boss room again" I remember the new skills and smiled. "I got some new tricks up my sleeve hehe, let's see how well I can use them."
Looking at me Q'ill whispered, "If is anything like what you did to the poor mages I can only say, may the Jewels have mercy on you, mister invaders." A shiver when thru her as she watched him.
Room one to five need changes, looking at things objectively I should simply put a (Fire Domain) to stop them from freezing the place up, however, the water will boil and evaporate although this won't matter in the long run, it will lower the water level uncovering the slabs.
Mmmm... if I lower the ceiling along the river it will prevent them from just ignoring the stone slabs, they can however still freeze the water, buuuutttt... an evil thought comes to me if I place (Ice Word) on some random spots.
I quickly try it out by casting (Ice Word) next to me and I was happy to see it works as I thought. Upon activation, it gives me many pre-set sentences where I can write the beginning and end something like this.
[_____ actives an _____]
So if I were to put something like oh... I don't know.
[Weight actives an Ice spear trap]
I can absolutely make them regret stepping anywhere near my Dungeon, however, there's one flaw to this skill, that is easily visible to the naked eye, I'll need to hide it under the water so they can't see it.
As for the Domain, Wind Element ya that will work, I'll hollow out the lowered ceiling as much as Dungeon Domain enchantment will allow before it breaks as for what to place inside hehe...
For the Gravel room... yes yes that and that hehe... and the blender room only needs Fire Element, for the Maze [Nature's Voice] of course, I should be able to trade for the puppy tomorrow I can definitely turn him into their worse nightmare.
Lastly... my poor Water Puzzle Room, let me reborn you, show those basterds that look down on you that revenge is most definitely a dish best served Icy cold hehe.
In her corner of the core room, Q'ill is starting to have a cold sweat. "W-what is Malpetios making? This baleful aura is horrible!" She could only hope that his target won't suffer too much before death.

Twig
Twig is a commentary on the life of those born into locations and situations of poverty, crime, and hopelessness. Do we look for ways to escape, try to make things better for those who can't, or give up altogether? It’s an adventurer filled with humor, horror, and heroism, but most importantly, heart. Beneath the trials of Twig lay the conflicts of survival vs. progression. You'll laugh along the way, but will you see more than the comedy?
