Soul Monarch: The Eclipse Feast Online

My Dungeon, My palace

I logged in and started to launch the Dungeon maintenance plan I had set up earlier.

First I explored the Dungeon thoroughly. With the help of the map and the readiness, I won't get lost or get caught in a trap.

But yes, caution is still necessary. Like how about the possibility of me meeting monsters, even though they tend to avoid confrontation with me even if I make judgments on them.

Yes, unexpected benefits. Or maybe a loss? I feel guilty if they don't retaliate even when beaten. Well, it looks like I won't be leveling up in my own Dungeon.

After the browsing session was over, I let out a long sigh. Yes, this Mansion turned out to have a length of 376 meters and a width of 124 meters with 4 main floors, basement (underground space that has not been fought) as much as 4 floors and six towers. The order of towers from the highest is southeast, northwest, northeast, southwest, and finally the east and west towers that have the same height.

Well, it's very broad, even exceeding my estimate. Especially with the mechanism of space expansion that makes a definite estimate of the area of the building becomes ineffective.

In addition, this Mansion also has a garden in the middle with colorful flowers with dark tones tending to —named Fectionous Spider Lily when I rated— with a giant fountain in the middle.

Well, maybe the name of the previous Dungeon was based on this flower? Anyway, the view is beautiful.

So, I guess that won't bother me even if I don't want to get close to that park and the basmen on the 2nd floor down for now. Bad things I can feel emanating from there, yeah.

"Accept ...."

Looks like now I have to start basic management, huh?

I started using Dungeon Authority’s to the maximum, making the use value of MP increase to 50 MP/sec and my experience even became a victim, starting to fall quickly!

I had to rest many times to recover mana while making sure the consumption experience was at a safe rate.

Yes, it looks like Ex-Skill will be closely related to the experience even though it has no level and does not provide a statistical growth bonus.

After all, with the extra effort a spacious room that seemed to serve as a hall and several rooms directly connected to it on the fourth floor had turned into a safe zone.

Thank you for the help of Spec-Skill, Bleses-Curses Sense. It became possible because I could feel the concentration of Primal Bleses and Primal Curses in the air.

And yes, the rest is easy, just make it feel more or less the same as the outside, scatters the Primal Curses and does not let it back solid. It's like trying to make air bubbles stay in the water.

Yes, it does add to the workload and experience value sacrificed, but for safety I think it's worth it.

In the end, it all paid off. And yes, for the Primal Curses of that room I had pushed to another place, making the concentration of the Curse rise by an alarming margin.

Recalling the experience of controlling the Primal Curses in my own body earlier, I tried to circulate the Curse like a pulse with the fountain in the garden as its center.

"Yes, it looks like it will make the Rank Dungeon rise," I said muttering. "Also I need tools to keep the flow of Primal Curses as it is now necessary."

Okay, that can be thought about later.

—You're starting to do weird things again, Girae?

Ah, is he awake?

"No yes. I just started managing the Dungeon."

—As self expected.

"What the fuck is with that reaction?" Yes, but it seems like a good time to ask some important questions. "Yes, Mega, previously said that it's here to prevent Overwhelm from happening, right?"

—What's up with that?

"No. Is that true or not?"

—Of course not. Eight out of ten points the goal is to make yourself confident for what reason this self brought you here.

"That's it, huh?" Then the idea is worth a try.

—Although the possibility of Overwhelm will occur is true.

"Yes? Did you say anything else, Mega?"

—No, just your feelings. But you don't think of anything dangerous, do you?

"Of course not yes."

—But from the emotions channeled Spirit Connection says otherwise.

Hey, I didn't think of anything dangerous at all, okay? Well, aren't you misinterpreting those emotions?

Good. It looks like Megaera doesn't believe me but let it go.

—Then this self will rest again.

—Don't call yourself this by that name!

I closed my ears reflexively as Megaera shouted even though it wouldn't help.

Yes, yes, as you would like, 'Master'. But has something happened to him? Hmm, maybe it's just me being too paranoid.

"Yeah, it's better to the next stage because Megaera has also confirmed that her previous actions were just to seduce me."

Huh, being too attractive is indeed troublesome. Yeah, kidding.

Descending to the ground floor, I took a deep breath as I was about to exit the Dungeon. Well, this feels strange because it has been more than a few days since I lived inside the Dungeon.

"All right!" The first step was made and ...

"Chuuuu?" "Chuuuu?!" "Chuuuu!" "Chuuuu?"

... Decitan the rats, Ratfolk greeted cheerfully. Unlike the monsters within the Dungeon that tended to choose to avoid me, they began to fiercely attack as if I were an enemy that had to be destroyed.

I did not budge, only freeing the Primal Curses and Primal Bleses from the first to third floors of the Mansion. Well, I intend to make the concentration of Primal Curses in the Ratfolk settlement roughly the same or close to the Dungeon.

"CHUAA!"

A bone javelin was thrown at me, but I managed to evade it successfully and retaliated with a ball of mana fog. Well, I don't want to kill you, Ratfolk.

However, that Ratfolk-Ratfolk continued to attack me blindly despite gradually losing its smooth movements due to the influence of the Primal Curse of Mutation. Then—

"COURSE!"

I shouted, using a Skill Scream to make them more intimidated. Forcing them to vibrate, inhibiting their movements further, and yes, making them frightened by my existence.

"I declare once again, submissive, loyal and obey my command!" I shouted suppressively, continuing to activate Scream along with appropriate actions to increase intimidation.

One of Ratfolk darted from the rear row, dashing towards me using his hands and feet with a bone spear carried.

Well, I prepared to fight him by taking out the rapier but—

Crackling.

That Ratfolk threw away his weapon before kowtowing to me. And as if it had become a falling domino, another Ratfolk-Ratfolk began to follow. Yes, the weapon they had been clutching was powerfully dropped, bowed and surrendered.

"Yes, this is easier than I thought it would be." I muttered as I watched this result.

One of the reasons I took the Skill Scream was to make me able to take monsters as a familiar more easily. Yes, this Skill can provide a state of fear and intimidation effects that will make monsters more obedient and easily tamed.

"Yes, using violence is bad so this is better."

Wait, does this also include using violence? After all I caused mental injury for scaring them.

Hm. Well, at least it's better than subduing monsters using a Shadow cam— when someone in tight clothes smiled cynically with a whip in hand suddenly flashed past my head.

"Ughh ...!" I shook my head immediately.

Yep! Forget that picture, me! There is no way I will become like that even while using the whip to tame monsters!

[77% of all Ratfolk Communals in the Areopagos Dungeon recognize you as a leader!

Accept them as followers?

Yes/No]

Sure accept them. And for those who still oppose .. yes, let them be as long as they don't act to the extreme, and for extremists, removal is the best option in my opinion.

Ex-Skill at EFO.

Ex-Skill, as the name suggests, Extra or exs (outside). Ex-Skill is closely related to abilities that are not derived from oneself.

How to get Ex-Skill is to meet certain conditions that are not yet known with certainty. But in Ex-Skill Primal type Bleses-Curses the alleged condition is to understand how it works and be able to use it practically.

Ex-Skill has no level and does not give any attribute enhancement but is usually obtained along with a Title.

Yes, continue to support Saia by giving likes and comments at the end of each Chapter. And for the favorite and share help don't forget, okay?
