《The Graveyard of the Dungeon God》Chapter 10 - Even the old can cry like babys
Advertisement
* POV Leon Crane *
Crane was sitting before the campfire in his chimney. You could faintly hear the crackling of the fire, in the faint light the fire was spending Crane was reading in an old looking book. This book was the oldest book of the royal library of Tenos, it was the one of only a few books, in which the founding of the kingdom was described.
In Cranes reach, leaning against the wall, was the heirloom of the royal family. This heirloom was a Middle Rank F spear. In the whole kingdom of Tenos there are no more than three Rank F weapons. One was the royal heirloom Sin of the Past, Crane was using and the other two were the swords the two dungeons of Tenos were birth with.
Ranked Weapons were farther divided in Minor quality, Low quality, Middle quality, High quality and Peak.
The head of Sin of the Past is forged out of black iron. This special iron is twice as durable and sharp as normal iron. On the widest point this head is ten centimeters wide. The total length of the head is around forty centimeters. The base of the spear is a bit longer than a meter and an half, which makes the total length of the spear almost two meters. Black iron is three times as heavy as normal iron, so to make the weapon not too heavy to wield the creator used only normal iron for the base of the spear.
The Sin of the Past was created by the founding king of Tenos short after the kingdom was created. There is a legend that during the forging process the founding king infused some of his essence blood into the weapon, which enables only people from his bloodline to wield this weapon.
Of the other two ranked F weapons one is in the hand of the current king of Tenos, Leons younger brother. The main weapon art the royal family trains with is a spear art, but that doesn´t mean that the royal princes aren´t trained in other weapons. As Leon was better with the spear than his brother Juan it was natural that the royal heirloom would go to Leon. That doesn´t mean that Juan was really weaker than his brother, it´s just that Juan could fight better with a sword than with a spear so he wasn´t really interested in the Sin of the Past.

When than the first dungeon was found and it contained a Minor Rank F Sword the king was rather pleased, because the leader of the team, which cleaned the dungeon was his older brother Leon. Leon gifted that sword to his brother, to strengthen the power of the royal family. This sword was a claymore, which contained a tiny flame seed in the knob. If this flame seed is infused with Mana it covers the blade of the sword in fire. The name of this sword is Fire Whisp.
The other ranked F weapon is called Hope. The reason why that sword is called so is because on the day the dungeon was discovered, the queen gave birth to the crown prince. In which possession it is at the moment. Hope is a minor ranked F long sword, coated in a holy aura. This holy aura makes the sword more effective against undead.
As the item the dungeon was birth with is called the first item a group of adventurer, which killed the Boss, gained from the final loot. This item was created together with the dungeons and shows in which kind of item the dungeon will be specialized. That doesn´t mean that there will always be a sword in the final loot if the dungeon is specialized but it´s more likely to find the items in the dungeon with which it was birth. The birth item is the highest ranked item the dungeon will be able to produce in a long time.
Crane just wanted to go to bed as it was already really late and he had to teach his nephew, the second prince in the way of the spear. As the second prince had the best talent in the spear out of his brothers, the king sent him to his royal uncle to study. Leon was naturally really happy to teach his nephew, as he himself had no sons, but the family heirloom still needed a worthy successor.
Suddenly a loud noise could be heard on the whole mountain peak. In the first few moments Leon thought it would be a avalanche but then suddenly his door was pushed open hasty and a young boy no older than fourteen rushed in and screamed
Royal Uncle!!! Royal Uncle the graveyard suddenly vanished!
What are you talking kiddo?
Crane asked rather confused.
how can a graveyard suddenly vanish? Was that the loud nice I heard? No why should a graveyard suddenly vanish and even if it did how could it produce such a loud sound?

As the boy saw the confused and look in Cranes eyes, he knew that his royal uncle didn´t believe him. So he grabbed his hand and dragged him towards the place where the dungeon used to be.
Crane let the boy pull him towards the graveyard. Leon thought that boy had just a bad dream or so, but when they arrived at the place where the graveyard used to be, he couldn´t believe his own eyes. At first Leon thought that maybe the avalanche had covered the graveyard, but the graveyard was no more, there was nothing that let people think there ever was one.
There was no gravestones, no tombs, there was only one thing and that was a rather big stone staircase. When Crane saw this staircase his whole body started to shake. Slowly more and more people of the town assembled around the old man and the boy.
Where is the graveyard?
What is going on here?
A few of the assembled people exclaimed. All of them were confused. None of them had any idea where their graveyard vanished to. None of them had any idea how that could have happened.
Cranes body started to shake more violently and slowly one tear after another flows down his face. He was an old man, next year he would be sixty years old, and he started to cry louder and louder in front of so many people.
At first the assembled people looked confused at crying old man in front of them until he suddenly dropped on his knees. His face starring at the sky and he started to laugh whole heartily. His next words will forever be remembered by the persons assembled.
Heavens, ancestor is this your blessing? The heavens granted us another dungeon
Only now did the people realize that this old man was just so excited that he could do nothing else than cry, because he was so happy at the moment. The two already existing dungeons could barely provide the kingdom with the minimum needed to let the kingdom survive. Without the possibility to trade this kingdom would surly die sooner or later, but now in the times were the kingdom is just barely surviving the heavens granted them another dungeons.
All of the people started too laughed heartily and joined the man in his crying. This dungeon would ensure their survival. No what it ensured is the future of their children, the future of this kingdom. For them it really was a blessing granted by the heavens.
* POV Marluxia *
After Marluxia created the staircase leading to Li Town, he transferred the already existing graveyard, of Li Town, into his dungeon. The old graveyard was situated in the east room on the first floor. The old graveyard didn´t even fill half of that room.
Every time a dungeon creates his entrance a loud sound could be heard in the surrounding. This sound was used by the dungeons to tell the nearby living people of it existence.
The sound didn´t create a avalanche, how lucky I am. Wait a moment is this because of my newly acquired luck skill?
Marluxia thought smiling as he placed a chest at the end of the Boss Room. The chest wasn´t locked. The materials used to create this chest were stone, as he thought a wooden chest would destroy the atmosphere of the room. A wooden chest isn´t really temple like so it needed to be a stone chest. The chest was decorated with two snakes on each side. He placed the only skill book he can create until now, the skill book for the minor shadow inventory, into the chest in the Boss Room.
Now I have to wait
Marluxia thought and sat down on a chair which he created beforehand as it would be tiring to stay all day long. On the wall which this chair faced you could see the outside world. At the moment you could only see the entrance of the dungeon.
Marluxia only had to wait for around ten minutes until the first humans could be seen on the screen. He eagerly watched as one old man started to tremble out of happiness. After a while that man even dropped to his knees and asked if this was ancestors blessing.
Humans are really interesting creatures. It will be funny to watch their reactions, when they realize that I am a Skill Book Dungeon.
He said smiling as he watched around thirty people crying out of happiness.

Tur Briste
A Druid cultivation novel. Borrows concepts from Wuxia and Xianxia but using Druid myth and lore. More on this at the bottom. Crow is son of Maddox, a Druid with an ancient bloodline and a people with a story spanning toward the beginning of time. Cursed, unfated, and a heap of bad luck have brought him only pain and suffering, but nothing will stop him. Nothing can stop him. A son of Maddox doesn’t bow his head. A son of Maddox understands that only a man with roots, with something to lose, will fight until the last drop of blood leaves his body. The Draoidh were once a proud people. They were both respected and hated for their form of righteousness. Power wasn’t something they gained through the might of their arms, but through intelligence. Their fall was all the more disheartening for the weaker cultivators. The tens of thousands of years that followed… chaos reigned. They forced Draoidh until most fled to the lower realms, nearly wiped out and exhausted. They went into hiding and became known as the Druids of the Oak. The Druid Order wasn’t the powerhouse it had been, and only nine of the major clans survived the calamity. Their bloodline weakened, as well as their prestige. Even the remaining clans fought amongst each other. Already on the decline and near extinguished, the Maddox clan can only struggle for survival, but their foundation wasn’t a joke. Weakened, but not weak. The other clans will understand this difference soon enough. Tur Briste, the Shattered Tower, awaits Crow’s ascension. Reaching the upper realms is only the first step in reestablishing the Draoidh. The Druids of the Oak remembered every betrayal and grievance, and they’ll return to power and reclaim what once belonged to them. The upper realms may have forgotten, but the Druid Order has not. Please Note:1) This is harem story. There are only a few chapters with sex, and it’s not a focus of the story. I’ll only add graphic sex if I feel the story needs it, so not gratuitously. Either way, Crow has several women. This is in line with Druid/Celtic history, and harems/reverse harems were an accepted part of their culture. Further, they had open marriages, meaning the man or woman could end their marriage at any time. While it was still a patriarchy, women had almost equal power. They were a very progressive culture. 2) There is a period of a 30-50 chapters where Crow loses the ability to cultivate like a Druid so he adopts an eastern body cultivation method for a while. This is temporary, but some people feel it’s misleading, so I am pointing it out ahead of time. I promise, the Druid stuff comes back, and 90% of the lore/myths/creatures/gods are all related to Druid/Celt/Irish/Scottish history. 3) I use many original names, most of which are in Gaelic or Irish. In the story, I refer to this language as Ancient. I enjoy all kinds of folklore and myths, so I encourage you to google those original names as they arrive. I give some background on them at the end of the chapter in my author’s note. 4) I use Ogham runes a lot, these are like the Druid alphabet, and they based each rune on a sacred tree so they also have symbolism associated with them. Again, feel free to google that too. It’s pretty neat stuff. Quick Translations:Draoidh = DruidTur Briste = Shattered Tower or Broken Tower Release Schedule:As of Oct 1, 2021- 3 chapters released every Sunday (May have up to two bonus chapters)- Side character chapters… this might be bonus chapters I release through the week. So they won’t count toward the 3 chapters on Sunday.- Please understand I work full time, have two kids, and can’t spare as much time as I’d like toward my writing. Maybe in the future I can switch to doing this full time, but for now 3 chapters is a comfortable pace for me. Lastly… I very much appreciate all my readers and thank you for allowing me to entertain you!
