Chapter 174: Unique Dungeon (2)

The soul depletion was recovering every day, and it was cured within a mere 10 days.

”Awoo~ I’m stiff. Hah~ I slept well.”

Yihi casually woke up and looked around.

“Huh? Master, why is Yihi here? Yihi fell asleep in the garden.”

It was strange. The spirits were hovering around Yihi.

-The fairy woke up!

-So we don’t have to work now?

-Surprise ~

The spirits stampeded over to check the results of their hard work.

“What are they doing? Yihihi. Master, Yihi is embarrassed to have so many people staring.”

”Has anything changed?”

”With Yihi? Well...ah!”

Yihi stared with surprise at her body.

”My wings have increased!”

Her original two wings had increased to four. This change occurred when her soul recovery rate reached 90%.

“What? Why have my wings grown? I am filled with strength...”

Yihi spread her wings.

At the same time, a bright light poured out from her wings.

The light reached beyond the top floor and swallowed up the entire dungeon.

“Eh eh...?”

I blinked with confusion but then multiple messages popped up.

-The soul of the Origin Fairy has risen one level.

-The Tree of Origin has awakened. It will have a stronger influence on the dungeon than before.

-The spirits will have a faster growth rate.

-The dungeon’s rating has been upgraded to ‘Unique (Uniq).’

Further information can be found in Domestic Mode.

It was obvious that Yihi’s power had grown. I had guessed it as soon as her number of wings increased. However, I hadn’t expected that the Tree of Origin would awaken at the same time.

In addition...the rating of the dungeon had risen.

A crisis was an opportunity. This all started with the spirits.

If I hadn’t received the spirit seeds then this result wouldn’t have occurred. I wouldn’t have been capable of solving the depleted soul on my own.

The coincidences overlapped. They were layered little by little until this phenomenon was created.

Kururung!

Shortly after the messages surfaced.

The dungeon started changing.

The roots of the Tree of Origin expanded through the entire dungeon. It felt like...the Tree of Origin was becoming one with the dungeon.

‘The concentration of magic power has thickened.’

Not only did the dungeon’s defensive power increase, my ‘authority’ also rose. I knew it instinctively. I could see more details by entering Domestic Mode...

‘Unique dungeon.’

I had never heard of a unique rated dungeon in my previous life. All the dungeons had been the same. There hadn’t been much difference even when it was upgraded to a rare rating.

I thought it couldn’t climb higher...but it reached the unique rating.

‘It means that epic and legend ratings are possible.’

I looked up as the light leaking from Yihi’s body shrunk. The light faded to reveal Yihi who had grown slightly bigger.

“Eh? Yihi has grown, Master!”

From Yihi's head to her fingers on her hands, every part of her had increased by half a finger's length.

Yihi laughed with joy.

She was confused by the light emerging from her but then she realized her growth.

”Do you know what has changed?”

Yihi touched her lips and thought for a while before answering my question.

”A little bit. Some of the origin magic has flowed into Yihi. It isn’t a lot but it is great ~ Yihi will be more helpful in the future. And the Tree of Origin told me. Hopefully...the ‘first king’ can be created.

“King?”

I had already noticed the origin magic, but I was curious about the mention of a king. Just like the achievements, the title of ‘first’ was attached to it. I was curious because it had a modifier attached to it.

Yihi nodded.

”But a king can’t just be created. Master will decide. In the Demon World and Heaven, it is possible to create a king from magicians, angels, demons or other creatures...then this dungeon will change into another world.

“......”

I was at a loss for words. Yihi’s words to me weren’t simple. It meant that the dungeon could become an independent world. It would be a solid presence like the Demon World, Heaven or Earth.

In short.

”I will be a god?”

Yihi laughed.

”Hey ~ that’s not it. Master, what would a god do in a world with only one king? Of course, Dungeon Master can say ‘I am a god!’ but the creatures won’t necessarily believe it. Well...you asked Yihi something like this ~. Master is still lacking to become a god. You will gain the qualifications to become a god after everything has transcended. You will be called a ‘demigod’ but then achievements have to be piled up in addition to your stats. In that regards, hasn’t Master gained significant achievements already? So you will qualify if you become stronger! Yihihi!”

She was saying that I was still too weak to qualify as a god.

I was shocked but somewhat convinced by her words.

There were many people stronger than me, such as the Shadow Emperor, the True Demonic Dragon Aojin and Garrash the Fire Spirit King. In addition, there might be other stronger creatures that I didn’t know about yet.

They hadn’t obtained the qualifications to become a god either. The Shadow Emperor had become a demigod, but eventually gambled his fate and lost.

If I looked at the Demon World...it was true that no one had become a god yet.

However, it was an uncertain goal.

My main goal was to become the devil. I aimed to rule over the Demon World.

There was no need to build my own world.

‘No. My goal won’t change.’

I swallowed my saliva. I was more obsessive than I thought. Once I made a decision, there was no special reason to stop.

Anyway, the dungeon rating rose so I was able to obtain larger benefits than I thought.

”How do I make a new king?”

”That...”

I asked Yihi but she didn’t answer. Was there some ‘pattern’ needed for the seed of a new world?”

”Pattern...”

It meant the shape and framework when creating something.

But I couldn’t grasp it. Was there a pattern that allowed an angel, demon, human or creature to become a lord?
