About half an hour later, the feast finally finished and the monster musicians left upon his orders.
The dancers were tired, and it appeared he would have to postpone fucking them. After finishing with Minerva, Ariel and Calliya, the turn of other women finally came.
He first sent the corrupted priestesses and female mages to go to the 66th floor. They would stay in the Chamber of Debauchery.
As long as something unexpected didn't happen, Jake wouldn't have any enemies invading his dungeon for a while. He could always fuck them later.
For now, he had to attend to the pussies of his drunk servants like Irene and Erin. It's been a while since he had sex with them.
Jake called them one by one and nailed them in various positions.
The first candidate was Irene. Sitting on the high-back chair oppositely, she hung her huge ass out. Irene held onto the hand rests, moaning loudly as her master pounded her cunt.
Jake's stamina and vitality were high, and he wasn't tired even after creaming her multiple times. Likewise, the next turn was Ruxa's. She kept kissing him as he fucked her, laying on the carpet in a side lying position.
Then Isa's turn, and the harpies who weren't bearing eggs…
It was already morning when Erin's turn came. She had been waiting for a long time, so he sent all the other women, and spent the rest of the early morning with her.
She and him went back to the 66th floor only when she was satisfied. Needless to say, that was quite a feast for Jake.
…
Outside the Dungeon of Sin, just before noon arrived.
The Court Mage and Prince Splennar got on black wolves and left for the Capitol. Their master's order was clear. To divide King Averon and his brother Bors. This was the most feasible way to conquer Grimbow Kingdom.
Using force wouldn't work with that 5th Circle Radiant Knight in the kingdom. Jake wasn't delusional to think his wyvern would be able to kill that man. Even within the 5th Circle, there were distinctions.
Considering how Bors could deter the surrounding nations, he was obviously more powerful. Against such an opponent, using his wits rather than strength was better.
Also, Jake couldn't step on the 5th Circle so quickly. He had been noticing some problems because of how fast he was advancing.
Most 4th Circle beings, after stepping in this rank, would spend at least 20 to 50 years before advancing, if they qualify for advancement that is.
Jake had been on a fast track all this while and he hadn't had chances to experience the normal increase in power. His sense of power was distorted, and this led him to sometimes over or underestimate himself.
So now, dungeon building and collecting millions of Evil Points were his choices. He had a lot of things, like monsters, bloodlines and items to buy from the system.
During this time, Baron Leo would spread misinformation among the nobles in Ulford, and Ivan, together with Splennar, would create discord between the royal brothers.
It was not an easy job and might take three to four months at least. Jake planned to rest easy and weave his web around the kingdom with his cult. This was going to be exciting.
…
Near Saelther Canyon, inside the huge 2nd Tier Dungeon named Tartus.
On the 56th floor, Nyssa, the mistress of Fel Snake Tribe was standing before an imp. The little demon crouched subserviently in front of this beautiful gorgon.
The chamber was dark yet every creature could see things clearly.
3 Gorgons and 2 Lamias were surrounding the imp in a circular formation, their snake tails coiled below them.
''And yourrr massster waants to co-oppperate? With usss…?'' Nysaa's each word was drawn out. Every time she spoke, the green snakes on her head would hiss menacingly towards the imp.
''Yes, Fel Mistress. My demon master invites you to his dungeon for further talk,'' the imp replied, trying not to stutter.
All these snake women were hostile towards him. It was because he had brought one of Ruxa's black scale with him.
''Hiss… We sent Sapheisa with her to explore that dungeon…''
''This demon's master is keeping them hostage… It could be a trap, mistress…'' The two gorgons beside Nyssa spoke.
The 4th Circle woman walked closer to the imp. Snakes coiled around her sexy body and her assets naturally swayed when she moved.
Laying on the dungeon floor while holding its spear, the imp didn't move as the snake woman approached closer.
''Hiss…'' Nyssa slithered her split tongue out, licking her own chin.
''Aaarre theyyy alivvvee…?'' She asked as the snakes on her head caught the imp and lifted it.
''I…I do not know… I am but a messenger!'' The imp panicked and began struggling.
Nyssa's poisonous green eyes glowed as she frowned. A thin snake slid through her cleavage, sending waves into her juicy chest mounds. Slithering on Nyssa's thin and wavy waist, the snake went onto her large bust.
It coiled around her long, lust-provoking thighs, squeezing plenty of well-proportioned flesh before climbing on another snake.
The imp's dark eyes showed fear as it saw the thin black snake coming closer. As it touched the little demon's forelimb, Nyssa asked again.
''Aaarrre Ruxxxa and Sapheisssa alivvvee?''
''Yes, yes they are!'' The imp cried in a hoarse voice as the 4th Circle Gorgon's intimidating aura peaked.
''Lies!'' One lamia hissed.
''Lies!''
''Lies!''
The other snake women followed. Suddenly, the black snake from earlier bit the imp and slid back to Nyssa.
''Aaaaa!'' The demonic creature cried as the black poison entered its bloodstream. The imp quickly burned its internal blood using its innate pyrokinetic ability.
Holding the demon in the air with her snakes, Nyssa looked deep into the imp's eyes. Immediately, the little demon's eyeballs turned into stone.
The petrification spread all over its body while it was still struggling. In a few seconds, the imp was a stone statue. Its eyes were wide open in pain, mouth stretched to the full, wings about to be spread and limbs frantic.
The snakes coiling around its body left as Nyssa turned around. Cracks appeared all over the petrified imp and it turned into nothing more than dust a moment later.
In the Dungeon of Sin, Jake suddenly opened his eyes, sensing the link between him and that imp break. That could only happen if the monster had gone too far, or it had died.
However, the single word the imp had sent was enough for Jake to know what had happened. Sitting on his chair, he glanced at the ceiling with red glows in his eyes.
''Nyssa…''
''Hiss… Hiss…''
Back at the Tartus Dungeon, a pack of uncountable thin snakes slithered all over the chamber's floor. They converged at the center and coiled on each other, making a large throne. The process looked beautiful.
Nyssa scanned the chamber with her angry eyes and turned around. She bent her knees and flattened her fat, naked buttocks on the seat.
The snakes on her head made an impressive crown. She crossed her fleshy thighs and leaned on one side. Her oval face showed a thoughtful expression.
The charisma of this mistress affected all the surrounding snakes, even the 3rd Circle snake women, whom she collectively called as sisters.
''I have made a mistake. There seems to be a high-ranking demon in that dungeon…''
The sudden change of Nyssa's speech wasn't new to her sisters. She was speaking in parseltongue right now. A normal human could only hear hisses.
The tone, pitch changes, and frequency of each hiss determined the understandability of this language. There were no words or phrases. Each long hiss was a sentence on its own.
Inside this chamber, each gorgon and lamia let out some hisses of their own. It was unknown what they were talking about. But their eyes seemed to hide something sinister.
…
The Chamber of Debauchery, at night.
''Annhh~''
''Mrrnnh~''
The bright chandelier hung from the ceiling. Under its light, tens of beauties were wearing only underwear, moaning with lustful eyes.
Jake lay on the large bed at the center, lazily hugging corrupted priestesses on both sides. Intelligent female mages moved around his naked body, some kissing him, some using their assets to garner his attention.
Jake was using his Pleasure Demon title, so they were all feeling the need to get fucked. He had also mass manipulated these girls' emotions, making them feel endless love for him.
''Annh~''
''Please fuck me, master~''
''Mmmwah~''
Climbing all over his body, they kissed him from various sides, on his cheeks, on his mouth… Taking turns, the girls submissively sucked his cock hoping he would notice them.
A normal man would be overwhelmed by so many women. Yet for Jake, this was normal.
''Hmm…''
Making low growling sounds as if he was a resting dragon, Jake possessively groped around and felt their soft bodies. Looking at the demon with absolutely infatuated eyes, these young women were lost in pleasure.
Jake could heat up their pussies, and make their knees go weak with a single touch. His expression told these girls that he was pleased with them, and they were delighted to see that.
Jake widened the gap between his thighs, letting a thin priestess sit. The others moved a bit further to give her space. As soon as she put his rod inside her, Jake began moving his hips.
Hugging his chest, the girl began joyfully crying as wet slapping noises resounded in the Chamber of Debauchery.
The sharp moans of this girl didn't escape the chamber's walls. The room was soundproof.
''A-Annh! Ah! Mrrmm~ Annh!''
Jake's movements were fluid, with every action being instinctual. After having so much experience, fucking felt more relaxing to him. It felt too good to be lost in pleasure. To fuck every pussy in sight and cum inside.
…
In a casual Living Chamber, the next afternoon.
''He is so cuuuute!''
''Shoo, keep your dirty hands away.''
Jake was holding his son while reading the report sent by Panchel, his Dark Bishop stationed in Gera.
Lena was pestering him as usual. Hugging his thighs and begging him to let her carry the baby when she didn't have sufficient strength.
Jake patted her once or twice when she became too loud, and then just ignored her like he always did.
It had been a week since he learned about the imp's death. Jake planned to go to that dungeon near Saelther Canyon himself, but not so soon.
The time was coming close for the remaining 5 women to give birth. The women in the three villages were also ready.
''Hmm?'' Jake smiled as he read the midsection of the report.
With the absence of church powers in Karsuda, the bishop and his team of clerics as well as knights were successful in converting more than half of the city's population. It wouldn't be long before the whole of Gera would pray for the Lord.
Jake put the report paper down and stroked his baby who was curiously looking around. This boy had inherited his deep black eyes. Jake also noticed some shades of brown on the baby's hair, those came from his mother.
''Master, it's time for Damon's breastfeeding.''
Wearing a loose maxi, Vin came and sat beside him on the couch. Lena peeked from behind as Vin took out her right breast.
Jake passed the baby to the mother. He also glanced curiously at her milk bags. They had grown really big.
Vin cradled Damon in her hands and brought her nipple close to the baby's mouth. There was no need to say anything. The boy immediately began sucking on the nipple and drinking his mother's milk.
Vin lovingly stroked the baby's head and leaned closer to Jake.
''Damon is growing much faster than normal children,'' she said, looking at her son.
The next moment, Vin's expression suddenly changed, and she sighed. Jake couldn't help but chuckle. The little guy had peed again.
''I-I'll go change his clothes.'' She stood up and went back to her chamber.
''Waa… Waaa…'' Jake heard the cry of another child just as he picked up the report paper again.
Shaking his head, he burned it using [Dark Fire] and stood up.
''Aww… What happened? Look, it's daddy!''
Yunna was walking around the corridors with her crying daughter. Approaching Jake, she tried to calm the baby girl. The method seemed to be working.
Though the infant began crying again after a while. Jake smiled wryly and went outside. Parenting was difficult for first-time mothers.
…
Ulford, the capital of Grimbow Kingdom.
Inside the King's Palace, Prince Splennar and Court Mage Ivan knelt below the throne, on the huge red carpet. Royal Knights and Mages were standing neatly on both sides.
Quite a few nobles were among them, speaking in hushed voices. Baron Leo was also there. Jake had already informed him about everything he needed to know.
The king's ministers and advisors stood just below the throne's level, their expression serious. The queen and the other royal children stood beside the throne, looking at the two below with neutral gazes.
Only the Royal Commander seemed missing. He had gone to the northern fort because of reports about enemy movements.
At this moment, one bald and long-bearded minister coughed.
''Speak, what transpired in Karsuda? How did you lose so many forces?'' Averon's voice resounded in the almost silent hall.
''Yes, my King.''
A few seconds later, the 3rd Prince began speaking, much to everyone's surprise. No one seemed to have noticed the change in his tone.
''Your Majesty, we did our best and slayed the necromancer but…''
''It is saddening that we lost Sir Bradley and the Shadow Mistress there. Countess Minerva alone couldn't have done it. We also had to fight a hostile wyvern which the necromancer had tamed somehow.'' The Court Mage added.
Whispers rang out all over the hall. Advisors climbed up and told the King about what they thought of this. Almost all of them suggested that the checking of nobles should be stringent.
''If only the church had helped us…'' Ivan sighed. His words sparked some urgent concerns.
''What could be the cause for Sir Archbishop's leave…?''
''I wonder if there are more threats in the kingdom now…''
The King stretched his palm forward, beckoning his subjects to calm down. He looked at his son and the Court Mage.
''Arise.''
Both rose from their kneeling position. Suddenly, Splennar did another surprising thing.
He bowed toward the tall Court Mage and apologized, ''I am sorry, Sir Ivan. Because of my recklessness and insistence to come along, you all were put in more difficult situations.''
He looked around with a serious face and bowed to his father. ''I have been foolish, Your Majesty. We lost so many of our forces because Lord Bradley had to shield me from those undead. Maybe things could have been different if I wasn't there.''
The looks on the royal guards and the nobles' faces were worth remembering. However, the queen's reaction was probably the most precious.
Sophia covered her open mouth with her palm and blinked thrice. The surrounding princesses seemed confused by their brother's behavior.
These three beautiful, sheltered girls were respectively 16, 21, and 22 years of age. The older ones had already been married off.
''I shall accept any punishment deemed fit for me.'' Splennar continued his act.
''Heh.'' The 2nd Prince chuckled disdainfully. Roland Phillips was the step-brother of Splennar, a son of the first queen. He was a 3rd Circle Knight as well as a 3rd Circle Mage at 72 years of age.
Quite old, indeed. He was offered a large piece of land as well as the title of a Duke multiple times, but he rejected it in hopes of someday inheriting the throne. As the 1st Prince was already dead, Splennar was his only competitor.
Once the current king stepped down, he would surely win the fight for the throne. Roland had actually incited his step-brother to go on this mission. Seeing Splennar come back unharmed irritated him. The 2nd Prince looked in his father's direction.
Averon showed little change in his expression and spoke to his son standing below. ''It is good that you have now learned to be responsible for your actions. That trait is something better cultivated early, my son.''
The King stood up while the others smiled in surprise. This was the first time Averon had called the 3rd Prince as his son in public. It appeared the King was pleased with Splennar's honesty today.
''Although you deserve to be punished for your actions, the fault is mine as well. I didn't foresee that the necromancer wa-''
Suddenly the hall's door violently opened and the aura of 4th Circle beings took over the interior. Everyone looked as five people entered.
Two were wearing dark green capes and lightly hovering over the floor. The rest wore silver silk dresses and walked confidently. They were elves, all at the 4th Circle.
Two elite elven mages, two rangers and one sword meister. The people inside the hall were mesmerized by their beauty. Some recognized who these elves were while others curiously turned their heads.
''Issac!''
Averon's frowning face turned into a smile. He waved at the Royal Knights who were about to withdraw their weapons, telling them to halt.
The King walked down the throne's raised platform and went to meet the tall, white-haired elf in the middle.
''My friend, what brings you here?'' He asked.
However, the elf didn't speak. He simply turned to one of his mages. A female elf on the side took out a large wooden bowl.
''We should talk about this in private, Averon,'' said the white-haired elf, showing the bowl full of clear moon water.
The King looked at it and saw the image of a white gourd reflected in the moon water.
''The is?'' He asked in elven language. Other than Averon, no human here knew it.
''It is our treasure.'' Issac leaned forward and whispered. ''We had entrusted it to a noble in Karsuda. I suspect that necromancer may have been looking for this. William Dorstone is dead.''
Issac was the leader of the elven tribe living in Karsuda. After stealing the Life Elixir from the Elven Queen's chamber, he was exiled from the Darknight Forest.
Fleeing all the way to Grimbow with the then elven princess and his supporters, he had settled in Moonlight Forest.
Because of the special quality of that white gourd, the Elven Queen would be able to sense the Life Elixir anywhere if any elf touched it. While fleeing to Grimbow, Issac had a human slave handle the gourd.
After reaching karsuda, the treasure was passed to William Dorstone who proved himself to be reliable. At that time, Issac did not trust the royals who were just as powerful as him and his forces.
''I know you have sent a team to kill that necromancer…'' Issac stared at Averon with his blue eyes. It was clear what he was implying.
''Everyone may leave now, except Ivan and Splennar.'' The king said, switching to human language. There was a burst of authority in his tone.
Sensing the seriousness, no one dared to ask any question and silently exited the hall. The Royal Knights saluted and went to their posts while the nobles put on skeptical expressions while leaving.
Once even the queen, princesses, and ministers had left, the king turned to the Court Mage and the 3rd Prince.
''Come with us.''
Along with the elves, the two who had just returned from Karsuda followed Averon to a more secretive place. They had a bad feeling about this.
Inside a secret room in the King's Palace, Averon paced around with his hands behind his back. The elves were silently looking at Splennar and Ivan.
''If she didn't have it, then who else has?'' Isaac seemed frustrated.
He had come here hoping he would find some clues about the Life Elixir. But the only two who had returned from the subjugation mission didn't know a thing about that treasure.
After killing Minerva, they burned her body. The undead under the necromancer had all entered a state of inactivity since then, according to the Court Mage.
Those beings required the mana of a necromancer to sustain themselves. Currently, the undead were still in the dungeon with the other monsters or so the prince reported.
Splennar had lied a lot since a young age. Being a useless child, that was one of his remarkable skills.
According to him, they hadn't reached the lowest floor of the 2nd Tier dungeon because there were more dangerous monsters. He exaggerated the fact that even they couldn't go past the 40th floor where Minerva was hiding.
To not make the elves have thoughts of going there, Ivan added that the floor was destroyed because of the tremendous battle.
This left Isaac extremely conflicted. Before coming here, he had also sought help from diviners but nothing came out of it.
Jake's inventory was a whole another dimension, so of course they would get no clues about it.
''So is it lost?'' Issac looked outside through a window and sighed.
What would he tell the princess now? That he was incompetent and couldn't handle the treasure she'd entrusted to him? Why must it be like this?
Isaac glanced at Splennar and Ivan again. He memorized the faces of both of them and beckoned the other elves.
As they began leaving, Averon said from behind, ''My friend, if you need any help in this matter, just remember us.''
Isaac stopped and turned around. All elves bowed to the human king and left the secret room. Something about their stiff faces told Splennar that they weren't happy.
The elves suspected that both were lying, but they couldn't just accuse these humans in their domain.
Isaac wasn't going to give up this early. He would dig up everything about what happened to William Dorstone. He wouldn't let the princess down, wouldn't make her cry again.
…
''Congratulations!''
''Congratulations, Riri. You're a mother now.''
Everyone was gathered around the bed on which Riri was laying, smiling weakly.
About two weeks had passed since Ivan informed Jake about what happened in the King's Palace.
The atmosphere inside the Dungeon of Sin was cheerful lately. All five pregnant women had given birth now, with Riri being the last.
She had complications during her delivery due to her small hip size, but the village women handled it expertly. This was not the first time they had to deal with such a case.
Even in the villages, there were multiple times where a young, petite girl would get pregnant. They would mostly be around 15-16, though Riri was 20.
Holding her son, she looked at Jake. He went forward and stroked her hair.
''You did great.''
Hearing him, Riri passed the baby to Jake. He held his son and showed the baby to others.
Jake stood up, and the infant began crying. This one's cry was sharp and powerful, filled with vigor.
''I name him Eren,'' Jake announced, holding the baby high. As a father, it was his job to give his son an identity.
Everyone cheered again.
That night, Jake held another feast to celebrate the successful delivery of his new five children.
Other than Riri, Diana also had a son whom Jake named Owen. Amelia, the young catgirl, gave birth to a daughter. It was surprising to find that the infant also had cat ears, but not the silver ones like her mother's.
Nyx's ears were black. It was most likely the effect of his demon genes.
The remaining twin priestesses both birthed a girl each. Jake let them choose a name for the daughters as they already seemed to have one. Mary named her daughter 'Layla' while Numa went with the stylish name 'Sthena.'
The next morning, Jake told all women with children to shift to larger, separate rooms.
A lot of things were arranged. Thankfully, there was enough space and spare rooms in his underground palace. Thousands of people could fit here.
Around the afternoon. Inside his personal chamber, Jake was reading a book written by an influential writer of the Auximore Empire which neighboured the Grimbow Kingdom. He found that there was a lot to know from books alone.
This one, in particular, was very interesting because it talked about the beginning of the world. The author also seemed to have a magus background.
''So I'm in the Origin World?'' Jake muttered to himself as he turned the pages.
The writer of this book said that the Universe consisted of the Origin World and the Abyss which broke into Hell and Underworld. There was no mention of Heaven the Church of Light preached about.
Jake took what was written here with a grain of salt even though there were a lot of citations. He agreed with the fact that Abyss had broken into Hell and Underworld, but everything else was out of his knowledge sphere.
Jake shut the book and threw it at a nearby desk. Just as he got up from the bed, he saw Yunna entering his room.
''M-Master…'' She walked up to his bed and sat beside him, rubbing her left foot with her right one.
Jake looked at her and blinked. He could sense that she was a little… horny.
It hadn't been that long since she delivered her child, so he was avoiding from having sex with her. However, Yunna's nature as a succubus resurfaced after she gave birth.
''I… Uh…'' She leaned on her master's body and pressed her assets on his chest, biting her lips.
Looking up, she found Jake intensely staring at her milky breasts.
''Hah… Hah…''
Yunna was lying on her master's bed, who lay on top of her. Her silky red hair was spread all over the pillow. She was gasping, feeling her master's lips on her nipple.
Jake had pinned the succubus beneath him while sucking on her left breast. He possessively grabbed her right one and squeezed it.
Yunna relaxed her legs and gently stroked the back of Jake's head. He was drinking her milk, and that somehow calmed her overpowering lust. Her motherly nature took over and Yunna got into a side lying position.
Jake kept sucking her nipple like a hungry baby. Yunna's milk was really tasty. His other hand pulled her waist closer. Jake put his thigh over her thighs and grabbed her buttock, gently kneading it.
After giving birth, Yunna's hips and breasts had grown larger. In a sexual context, her figure had more appeal to him now because she looked extremely fertile at a glance. This applied to all other women who had given birth.
''Mmm…''
Jake didn't switch to another breast and instead began kissing his succubus. He didn't plan to fuck her yet even though he was hard.
Yunna would take at least another two weeks to fully heal. Sucking on her breast seemed to calm her down, so Jake would just do that until her pussy was ready for some pounding again.
However, there were still a lot of things she could do other than direct penetration.
''Master, I want to suck too…'' she whispered into his ear and Jake smiled.
A while later, Jake was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at the amount of his Evil Points while Yunna sat below him, slurping on his cock.
Her milk bags jiggled back and forth while she moved her upper body. Yunna pressed her palms on her master's pelvis, obediently sucking on his meaty rod to make him cum. Her feet were up, and her ass moved left and right.
After getting pregnant, she was worried that her master might not find her likable. Yunna was glad that was not the case.
'Looks like I can buy a lot of things now…' Jake thought.
[Evil Points: 221,397]
Currently, there weren't enough monsters in his dungeon. After advancing to Tier 2, the space inside was huge. The lower the floors, the larger their area. The 66th Floor was large enough to house a large hill.
His palace was just a structure among the various chambers and tunnels and even then, it was huge.
Jake could literally build cities on all floors beneath the 45th. By filling all floors, tens of thousands of monsters could be kept.
The dungeon wasn't the small seven-floor hole like it was previously. The monsters outside weren't enough.
''Mrrnnhh~ Mnnghh~''
Dismissing the status panel, Jake stood up and grabbed one of Yunna's horns. He fucked her tight lips for some time and came inside her mouth.
Yunna closed her eyes and drank his semen. He slipped out his rod midway as he was in a hurry and shot the rest of it on her face.
''Go wash yourself.'' Jake patted her and went out of his room, buttoning his pants.
'Lena, come with me,' he called the Dungeon Fairy through his special connection with her.
Hearing the voice on her left ear, Lena quickly flew to the place where her master was going toward. She met him midway outside of a guest chamber from where one normally exited the underground palace.
Jake quickly took flight and flew higher. Lena followed him.
''What are we going to do, master?'' She asked, flying beside him.
''I need to create an ecosystem for this dungeon, you know how to distribute monsters across all floors, right?''
''Of course, leave this to me, master!'' Lena fluttered her wings faster and squeaked in a cute voice.
He looked at her once and suddenly grabbed her head, flying faster. Lena cried as Jake increased his speed by three times.
A hole appeared in the ceiling and they passed through it, appearing on the 65th floor.
Minerva, who was training her new battalion of Undead Knights, was surprised as she sensed Jake. She commanded the undead to remain on standby and flew toward the horned demon.
Minerva curiously glanced at Lena. Jake would usually shoo her away, yet he was together with her today.
''Master is going to make monsters appear again!'' Of course, she couldn't keep her mouth shut and blurted this out before Minerva even asked.
''Make monsters appear?'' The necromancer was confused.
''It's his magic- Ah!''
Jake caught the little fairy and spanked her. She made fake, pitiful cries but started actually crying when he hit her harder.
''Sniff… Sniff…''
Paying no attention to Lena, Minerva asked a question. ''Are you also a summoner?''
''Well, that's one way to put it…'' Jake agreed in a dodgy manner.
''I see, why do you need monsters?''
He then told her about filling the floors with more monsters and creating an ecosystem. These days, more and more adventurers had been visiting his dungeon.
Most were disappointed by the lack of treasures and monsters. Even though it was a Tier 2 Dungeon, they could easily go past ten floors in a week. This decreased the appeal of his dungeon and made adventurers less likely to explore deeper. Jake didn't want that to happen.
''That's why I brought this troublesome pest.'' He pulled Lena's chubby chin, and she flew away, leaving a trail of pixie dust.
Potion makers would go absolutely mad if they found out that such a valuable material was being wasted. Lena had no idea how desperate some mages would be for a pinch of dust on her translucent wings.
''I think I know about dungeon ecosystems,'' Minerva said, rolling a strand of her hair. ''You see, I've been to a lot of dungeons. Not just in Grimbow, but other kingdoms as well. Have you heard of the Allied States?''
''No.'' Jake shook his head, replying in a deep voice.
''You should look at the map of our continent once.'' Minerva waved her hand, making her undead burrow underground.
She continued, ''There is a Tier 3 Dungeon called The Whispering Labyrinth in the Allied States of Ourin. I once reached the 74th floor of that dungeon. If you can summon any monster, I know a way to replicate the ecosystem in dungeons I've been to. How about giving it a try?''
Jake thought for some time. He even opened the system shop and looked through the species of monsters available. There were thousands of plants and monster species, so it should be possible to replicate an ecosystem.
He didn't have any desire to make it unique currently. He just wanted a running ecosystem for his dungeon. Copying another one would lessen the chances of him messing things up and wasting his amassed Evil Points.
With time, as he added more monsters, the habitat for monsters would definitely become different from the ones he had copied, and thus gaining uniqueness.
''Alright, come with me.'' Jake brought Minerva as well and ascended the floors.
Jake ordered the harpies to go direct the monsters remaining on various floors. Most were on the 45th floor along with the Demon Spiders.
He had been lax earlier and let them stay on lower floors even though they weren't that powerful. However, leaving the upper floors empty wouldn't do good.
After hearing him, Iona and Ciara, the harpies who controlled the group, flew to inform other monsters.
Isa, the Spider Queen, also called her children. By now, she had laid thousands of eggs. A lot of spiders had already entered the adult stage.
She now had thirteen 2nd Circle and fifty-six 1st Circle Demon Spiders in her family. That number would only increase as he kept breeding her.
As the spiders began moving, the remaining goblins, gnolls, lizardmen, kobolds and wolves quickly learned of the Dungeon Master's order.
This would most likely be the last time they moved from floor to floor. Since Jake first expanded his dungeon half a year ago, they had to move around a lot.
It was his mismanagement as the Dungeon Master. Thankfully for them, Jake was planning to be thorough this time in allocation of monsters in various floors.
…
On the 1st Floor of Dungeon of Sin
''Slimes are one of the weakest monsters and usually in the lowest hierarchy of monsters. Keeping them here would be the best," Minerva said, waving her wand at the blue and green blobs of sticky liquid which Jake had 'magically summoned.'
These slimes directly fed on mana or anything that had mana in it. There were lots of demonic plants around like the Man-eating Flowers, Silent Leaf Teeth, and Shadow Wines to keep the slimes in check.
Jake added some giant rats as well. These were violent omnivorous creatures which mostly preferred human meat. They would be troublesome for newbie adventurers.
The 1st Floor didn't need to have many monsters. There were a few traps here and there. Jake, Lena and Minerva descended to the 2nd Floor.
There, he finally began spending sizable sums of Evil Points.
Mud Scorpions, Poison Centipedes, Blue Frogs… They cost him more than 6,000 points. Minerva also made him add a mini floor boss. Jake bought a large Clay Puppet and put it in a chamber which led to the lower floor.
Anyone who wanted to reach below would have to defeat it. But with the dungeon's mana, the puppet would respawn in about two hours as long as its clay remained dry.
On the 3rd Floor, Lena suggested that he make one pack of monsters dominant over the other. After much thought and talk with Minerva, he bought 400 Sleep Moths and 20 Metal Mantises.
There was a trap room on this floor where most moths would stay. But a secret path to avoid the moths was also there, where the mantises would be waiting.
''Think about it,'' Minerva came forward and pushed a random stone on the right wall. The trap room opened and the Sleep Moths tried making her fall asleep with the dust on their wings.
''They will feed on the nectar of the demon flowers here while the mantises,'' She turned and threw a fireball ahead.
It illuminated the bodies of some Metal Mantises which Jake had just bought.
''They will feed on these moths.''
Lena seemed unimpressed and flew ahead. The monsters there immediately recognized the authority of the Dungeon Fairy and didn't attack her.
Jake and Minerva followed her from behind. They reached a large open area with crude stairs leading down.
The third floor would not have a floor boss. Minerva's logic was to give the adventurers a breather so they would be more willing to explore deeper. It was to trap them among the dangerous monsters in the lower floors.
After the 4th one, the size of each floor drastically increased the deeper they went. Minerva suggested they added floor bosses on each one.
She also very annoyingly said how other dungeons had some type of reward on each floor. As Jake bought more, he realized his more than two hundred thousand Evil Points wasn't much at all.
Time passed and he kept surprising Minerva more and more. He had reached the 11th floor, adding demon wolves, goblins, shadow bats, serpentine monsters, elementals, etc.
To this immortal zombie, Jake was more magical than any mage.
''Where do you even… bring these from?''
Jake didn't reply to her. He had spent most of his points by now. Only 30,000 more remained. That would be enough for the lower floor at most.
He would have to amass more points to fill the lower ones. Well, if he had haphazardly bought monsters without Minerva or Lena's suggestion, he would have filled 20 floors.
But that meant he wouldn't have the balance needed for a sustainable food chain. Jake had also bought various low-grade magical artifacts. The points were well spent.
''Let's go to the 12th floor,'' he said.
It had been more than 16 hours and Lena wanted to rest. However, her master and this beautiful woman were hell-bent on getting this done quickly.
''This will be the last one for now,'' Jake said, descending through a flight of far-reaching stairs.
He could see the 12th floor below. This place had a different air to it. First of all, everything was foggy and cold here. There was a forest.
Jake had already planned the floor boss for this place. Using his authority as the Dungeon Master, he called the Hell Knight who was staying on the 18th Floor.
Now that his dungeon had various 3rd Circle Monsters already, the Hell Knight wasn't that unique. However, he would still be a terrifying enemy for even D-Rank adventurers.
''For this floor, I think trolls would be the best choice.'' Minerva looked around.
In the Whispering Labyrinth, the 12th floor had golems. But that wouldn't work in such a terrain.
''I think…Dryads are a better choice.'' Lena flew and sat on her master's right shoulder.
'Yea… if only I could afford them…' Jake chuckled internally. Dryads were a type of nymph and obviously ranked higher in monster hiercharchy. He wasn't even sure if the system had them.
Jake scrolled for quite a bit of time and finally found Forest Trolls. Each one cost him about 700. Just buying 30 took 21,000 Evil Points.
Once he bought them, the monsters immediately appeared around him in small packs of 3. Upon his orders, they spread around the foggy forest. These trolls could eat anything, so there was no need to bring another group of monsters.
With this, the first 12 floors were done. Jake closed his eyes and focused. He found that the other monsters had reached the 31st Floor.
They still had to climb higher. None of these monsters deserved a floor lower than the 20th one.
''Now, I need to sleep!'' Lena puffed and quickly turned into a green speck of light, heading straight for the Dungeon Core.
