Chereads / Rise of a Dungeon Lord / Chapter 14 - World tree seed

Chapter 14 - World tree seed

[host according to my analysis, we're currently in the dungeon core]

Dungeon core?

Hearing the system words Ye Tian was stunned, how could he suddenly enter the dungeon ocre?

However, before Ye Tian could ask, the system continued speaking, interrupting his train of thoughts.

[Host back then, the last lightning bolt completely shattered your body and almost eliminated your soul.]

[It was only through the Ex level integration that I managed to merge you and the core, thus preserving a means of survival for you.]

Speaking of this, Ye Tian could hear a hint of annoyance in the system's tone.

After all, who would like it after suddenly being bombarded by lightning?

Shaking his head he decided not to think about the past too much.

*However system, if I'm in the dungeon core then how do I leave?  And wasn't the dungeon destroyed back then, how can the core still survive?"

Asking a series of questions, the Ye Tians level of doubt didn't decrease, rather it increased as more and more questions kept coming to his mind.

[.... about that, where we are is somewhere in the void a bit outside of the blue star]

[If my guess is not wrong, then that lightning back them was a form of the world expelling us]

*boom!*

Hearing the system say this, Ye Tians mind seemed to explode as a flurry of doubts and fear swept over him.

*impossible! Why would the blue star suddenly expel us, could it be it found out i'm a transverser?*

Thinking that his identity of being a transverser was exposed, Y Tian suddenly started to get angry at the system.

*Damn system! I'm sure this is all your fault,  if it wasn't for you bringing me to this damn world none of this would have happened.*

*Just look, other protagonists go to other worlds and achieve all kinds of amazing feats such as punching the moon and kicking the stars!*

*Unfortunately, thanks to you I was hacked to death in less than a month!*

Pouring out his anger Ye Tian seemed to want to rip out the system.

However the systems next words left him stunned

[Host! I would really appreciate it if you didn't blame this poor system for what it didn't do.]

[ Remember, it was when that strange orb you brought from your parents house merged into you that we got blasted away]

[ and don't think it's only you whos angry, who wants get lost in the ghost place of a void]

With a loud voice ringing in his head, the system quickly shouted back, unwilling to show weakness to his host.

And like that time passed, perhaps it was because both sides were frustrated and needed a way to relax themselves, but both Ye Tian and the system kept arguing for an unknown amount of hours.

Luckily, the anger on bith sides soon reduced as after taking a pause to calm down, Ye Tian suddenly asked a question that was on his mind.

*oh right system, about what was that orb, and why did the blue star suddenly start to go crazy?*

With a slightly embarrassed tone Ye Tian asked they system. Acknowledging that he was the one that caused the current situation.

Luckily, maybe because the system was bored from the earlier argument, but it quickly answered Ye Tian's question without making fun of him.

[Host speaking of that orb, i don't know if i should call you lucky or unlucky]

[ During the integration process, I managed to analyse it and guess what?"

[You my host just merged with an items that would cause many forces in the multiverse to go crazy]

[And just like the dungeon core, this has never been merged into a living being before]

With a sarcastic laugh, while genuinely surprised by the existence of this item, the system couldn't help but doubt Ye Tians luck as it actually took the initiative to merge with him

*Damn! system, don't play riddles with me. Just tell me what was that thing? And why did we get exiled because of it?*

Listening to the system's sarcasm, Ye Tian couldn't help but start feeling like ripping it again. Unfortunately even in his current consciousness state, he still had no clue on where the system was on what it was. 

Fortunately, he didn't have to wait to long as the system quickly told him the answer next.

[Relax my lucky host, the item you merged with was none other that seeed of the legendary world tree!]

Hearing they system speak, Ye Tian could detect a hint of envy in the system's tone

[Humph! What do you know! The world tree is a treasure capable of giving birth to millions of worlds, according to legend each of its leaves is a different world]

[ And the seed you carried although would consume enormous resources, has the potential to grow into that!]

Saying this the system couldn't help but getting angry at its host lack of knowledge 

*Fine! Fine! I get the world tree seed is amazing, however how does it merging with me anger the blue star?*

Asking this, Ye Tian curiosly waited for the answer as the was what bothered him most

However the systems next words left him shocked. It was only then he realised how lucky he was to survive 

[You really don't get it host?]

[Back then in the dungeon you were merging with the dungeon core. ]

[And each dungeon apart from its ability to create monster and give the dungeon lord strength, there are also known for having another characteristic]

[Having an independent space!]

Taking a slight pause the system continued 

[ It is also due to this space being independent from the world that the dungeon inside a dungeon is also called another world.]

[However in your case, this independent world suddenly merged with the legendary world tree resulting in a mutation different from anything I ever expected!]

[To be honest, host i was wrong when in said we were currently in the dungeon core]

[Host…..]

[Congratulations on accidentally creating the world!]
