Chapter 7
New chapter enjoy also do you like the new description I felt the old one needed work so I changed it.
Natsuki's POV
I stood by expectantly as Arthur opened the door I had put a void barrier in case the door started to attack like last time. But before I could fully react Arthur literally just disappeared in purple smoke.
"Damn it" I yelled
The doors Arthur grabbed now swung open although now I thought twice before going to try to open a door here. Well if I get sent to the same place as Arthur I should be able to help him. But that's considering he didn't get sent to just death I remembered I forgot to friend him so I can't message him. I try to teleport him to me but after a while it was clear he wasn't going to be teleported any time soon. And I looked like an idiot in deep thought while holding my hands out to the floor. This is weird he's either in a skill restricted area of some kind of a boss or mini boss room. This isn't good odds are he's in a boss or a mini boss room and I don't feel like he's going to fare well against one at his level.
Considering the rank of the quest. This dungeon is a rank C dungeon and he probably won't be able to solo a boss or a mini boss in rank C dungeon until level 80 I doubt he's going to be able to even scratch it even with Caliburn. I should probably start to worry about myself as there no real way I can help him right now. Well the only way to go is forward and if I leave my pride will be damaged critically and I don't think I'll be able to get any backup for at least a couple days. So I take a couple steps forward and looked at the now opened doors. I take a step through and prepare to cast a void barrier if needed but nothing happens I look around at the old rickety building all the boards creak as you step.

The whole place looked like a haunted house I noticed that the shadows seemed to dance on the walls taunting me. I increased my pace the shadows were getting really irritating on the wall there were shadows of feet stepping on me and swords going through my chest. Faces started appearing on the wall laughing only adding to the irritation. It felt like a walk of shame the person I was hunting was my apprentice she controls the void not the shadows what the heck is with this. I pulled out a torch and lit it but it didn't seem to effect the shadows if anything the shadows seem to be laughing more now. If Arthur was here the light of his sword would probably outshine the shadows. Sheesh if this place has more than one boss I'm not going to be happy. Seems like some kind of shadow based monster also is in this dungeon. This corridor was literally a straight hallway with no doors and it just didn't seem to end. After walking for a couple minutes I reached a metal door which was pitch black even though I was pointing a torch right at it almost like it was absorbing the light of the torch. It looked like liquid but it was solid it felt smooth and silky like marble or silk but it was fully solid and didn't contract when I tried to use force.
Then the door slowly started melting into the floor I stepped back I didn't know what would happen if that touched me. And I wasn't going to find out after the door fully disappeared into floor. It looked like a boos room inside the room was huge and covered in intricate patterns on the walls. There appeared to be some sort of shrine in the middle. I started to walk toward the shrine. It had pictures on it showing people being swallowed by what appeared to be a large shadow with glowing red eyes. There was a rock in the middle covered in runes. I came all this way I'm not going to be stopped by some boss. I reached for the stone and it cut open my hand with some sort of magic blood hit the stone and then the stone shattered the whole room became covered in darkness and the door closed. Then smoky mist filled up some of the room the mist was the same as the door pitch black absorbing all the light. Then I could make out two red eyes in the mist but it was too late.

Dungeon Core Chat Room.
This is a slower-paced "experiment and dungeon building" web novel that tries to use the idea of peer-to-peer communication with Dungeon Cores instead of Dungeon to slave monster communication to break up the detailed dungeon building. Rank 1 description: (minimum met for system initialization...detailed description as follows) Each race was given a system by the gods to make up for their shortcomings and balance their place in this world. Humans: Abysmally bad at understanding and using magic unable to use more than the lowest of magic were given the "Skill System" magic in the form of premade skills with use, study, and mastery tied to experience. Elves: Intuitively understand magic and have long lives leading to vast knowledge and skill in their chosen fields. However, as a species, they have nearly zero sex drive and less than low fertility, so they were gifted the "World Tree System" with experience gained through the care of natural areas – gifting the chance of children to increase their numbers without dirty copulation. All “natural” or “wild” monsters are given an "Evolution system" designed around killing and consuming as many creatures as possible, slowly increasing strength and, at thresholds, allowing mutations to alter them multiple times. Dungeon cores are different. Unlike humans, they can see, manipulate and live off mana. Unlike Elves, they naturally crystallize after extended periods of time in high mana level areas. However, they cannot easily move or communicate and typically go insane without companionship. As a species other than the odd eccentric they are unimaginative. Brute forcing solutions without the drive to truly innovate. Thus they have been gifted with the "Dungeon Connection System" a magical version of the internet accessible by their peers that allows them to barter and sell: bait, traps, monsters, and knowledge, as well as entertain each other with “adventure streams” using exciting recorded battles and humorous reels of arrogant chumps biting off more than they can chew to often fatal effects. This is the casual story of a dungeon unluckily spawned far from potential adventurers forced to innovate beyond its peers to find its place in this world. Rank 2 Description: Justification. I've been on a dungeon core kick for months and while I love the genre – it's sparse with entries. Often the forced conflict gets repetitive and frantic solving of threats "power levels" the protagonist to god levels to progress the plot – taking away the nice steady progression fantasy I'm looking for. (Progression in this story is linked to how strong of monsters/traps/whatever he can create not his "level"...this is demonstrated by some of his newer monsters beating his older monsters not with discrete "this monster has 10 attack this one has 40") Additionally, the focus on 3rd parties with their drama takes away from the reason I’m reading dungeon core novels in the first place – I'm looking for magical crafting, experimentation and kingdom building – not defence from higher and higher levelled enemies looking to steal/destroy/control the MC. This novel is kind of just me writing the story I wish I could read. I like thinking about the experimentation that can be done in fantasy settings using 'mana' as an excuse to make up rules and try to keep them internally consistent. IE once I define how a rule works, I'm going to commit to keeping it – no breaking hard truths I've given when it's convenient, even if it backs me into a corner. Hopefully, that should make the story interesting to read even if it's SOL and less action-oriented. There will be problems to solve and a clear progression in strength (of created monsters and knowledge) however due to not wanting to force conflict for the sake of conflict the general theme will be closer to slice of life with few action sequences and no overarching goal so please keep that in mind when picking this up as the genre is not for everyone. Finally, I have a clear goal of what I want from this story (not an endless romp but a series of arcs and then a conclusion that's a couple of dozen medium-sized chapters long) I want to commit to finishing it or at least bringing it to a point of rest. I hate all the engaging stories that stop with a “hiatus” indefinitely so in the event I lose motivation I'll work to end this even if the ending becomes rushed/unsatisfying just to give a sense of closure. I’m planning on including several polls in terms of direction and taking feedback heavily into account if I get enough readers (but may choose to ignore it if it deviates too far from the direction I want to take this as in feedback like: “The MC needs a cartoonishly evil arch-enemy that wants to enslave him and force the mc to pump out magic items” or “the MC needs to make a body and learn teleportation then live with humans” will get shot down without consideration.)

The Devil's own sins
Writer updates available for free on patreon. The following account, dear reader, is a recollection and retelling of the story of the first imp. The last devil born from the original primordial pit at the dawn of time, and the lowliest speck of that first generation. It recounts the tale of Thozronnath the pitiful and his steady rise from obscurity, perpetually stuck as a punching bag for his betters until the day hell itself spat him out. The information presented here is pieced together from eye-witness reports and second hand hearsay, sometimes from creatures with more than two hands. I can not tell you with any degree of accuracy how much of it is true as it begins long before our time and it's true ending lies far unto the future still. I can tell you one thing though, it was confusing as hell. Cover: Illustration for John Milton's Paradise Lost by Gustave Doré (1866), a thankfully public domain image. Currently on hiatus.
