《The World-ruling Dungeon》Ch 44 – Tell me more

Okay... Now... All we have to do is deal with those three and beware of the ones outside.
>
Thank the Slimes and Insects... The DP-Farm seems to be in good shape too. I'm surprised they are managing it that well.
>
I mean... It's simple right? They are sadists, so... I just have to order them to not kill and they can do whatever they want. Since the prisoners suffer even if they are no longer there, I only need enough people so that they don't get bored. And leave the healing stuffs for later on or in case they try to suicide.
>
Look who's talking... The system goddess that literally tortured me for saying her title.
>
I'll pass. Rather, how do I deal with those fuckers? I mean... The leader guy didn't even get hurt you know!?
>
Do you think they'll give up and retreat?
>
Haaah... I really need to deal with him somehow... I'mma waste so much DP on monsters...
>
Are you stupid? We don't even know how strong he is. If we do that and he wins we're dead!
>
Yeah!? I mean... I think I can see his level and some stuff if I do it with the materialized body but... I don't want to entrust our survival to that. He could have some weird skill.
>
You are that kind then...
>
Yeah... The kind that falls for badboys and mobsters in high-school.
>
It's nothing. Forget it.
Haah... I just wanted this to be done with already... Mihara's gonna take almost an hour to reach the cabin... Too long...
>
I hope so... This has taken almost the whole day already... Soon it'll be night time and we still have to be aware of every step of those idiots.

>
Those!? Those were small fry. They were left behind because taking them would be dead weight.
>
The goblins know how to have a lot of fun with someone who can't feel pain in a limb... You know, it feels far more scary if you can see it and can't feel a thing.
>
Ah... You poor soul... If you delve deep enough into the 6 digit universe you will see things you wish you'd never had seen...

(The following conversations were translated to human speech)
"Boss! Boss! Where the fuck is boss?!" (Goblin 1)
"Oi! Calm the hell up! He's gonna be here soon, just wait." (Worker Goblin)
The goblin group finally arrived at the entrance of the cave system. Most of them collapsed on the spot as soon as they arrived.
Aside from running three hours straight to get back, they had also chased the humans and hunted prior to that. There's no way a mere goblin warrior can handle all of that.
"We can't fucking wait."
"Hold up, where's the rest!?" Another goblin appears from behind the worker, the hunter leader knew this one, he was the Site Supervisor.
"They are dead, but that doesn't matter! I have an urgent matter to talk with the Boss."
"Doesn't matter!? You come back with a third of your men missing and you say it doesn't matter!?" The worker was pissed upon hearing the words. He plunged forward towards the hunter before being grabbed by the shoulder by the Site Supervisor.
"You should head back and do your job. If he says it's not important, it's not important. He's been here far longer than you have." The worker goblin clenched his fists, but turned around and went back into the collapsed area. "Sorry about the kid, he gets very emotional with this stuff still... The youth right?"

"Hahaha... Yeah... We used to be like that didn't we?" A bitter smile appeared on the hunter's face. "How's the fixing going?"
"Ah... The king asked us to remanage all the tunnels and make this whole shit an entrance since rebuilding would take longer than tunneling elsewhere."
"Seems rough on you doesn't it?"
"Yeah but it should be fine..." Before he could finish speaking, the Site Supervisor saw the Hunter look over his shoulder and realized someone had arrived.
"Oh! Hunti..." He froze as he turned around to see not only the man he thought, but also His Majesty and two generals. "I'm sorry Your Majesty, I hadn't realized you were here."
"Don't worry about me. Cut the formalities. Hunter! What's the report? Tell me too."
"YES!" The hunter became very nervous. It was one thing to tell bad news to his boss... Other to tell it to the king himself.
"There are humans! A large group of them. We followed three but traces suggest over thirty."
"That's bad news isn't it... Why are they in this forest... Subjugation? No... It's too soon for that..."
"Your Majesty, if you allow me to say, we also found a huge cave opening in The Great Wall."
"A CAVE ON THE WALL!? Shit... Sorry!" One of the generals let his tongue slip from surprise. Making the king become even more interested.
"Continue, hunter... I want to know every last bit of this..."

Old Riding Author Lunatic Asylum
Just off the A19, in the dark, incomprehensible lands known as Yorkshire, there lies a town. A town where shadow-silent alleys glint with the secret hunger of knives. Where blood soaks the chipboard window shutters of forsaken terraces stretching off into the night. Where the smog-choked air rattles with the depraved laughter echoing out from clubs that can only generously be described as post-apocalyptic. Well, that’s Middlesbrough. But down the A19 a bit (an impossibly long way down, actually) there lies another town: Raughnen, in the ancient, forgotten Old Riding. It is an equal match in muggery and thuggery alike. It also has magic spells and pointy wizard hats. And now, across the miles and across all sensibilities, a pretty nasty power (a magic one) calls out for its pretty nasty counterpart (a decidedly unmagic one): a proper sound Boro lad. Nothing good can come of it. This is a collection of one novella and four connected short stories: I. A Yorkshire Summoning II. Old Riding Day Trip (the novella) III. Heaven is a Parmo IV. Death on the 66 V. Death on the 257 In total, this comprises 34 chapters totalling around 35,000 words, so try not to worry. It will be over relatively quickly. There are three more short stories with more tenuous links to the core collection: Rush, Paper Round and Scenario 79: Sausage Fingers, all of which can be found in my collection Short Records of Misadventure. Reading these may allow you to make more sense of certain parts of the story, if any sense is to be made at all. NOTE: There are instances of prejudice and discrimination within these stories, including elements of sexism and ageism, which are purely the thoughts and actions of the characters involved and which certainly do not reflect my own views on these matters. ANOTHER NOTE; A WARNING, PERHAPS: This can get a bit weird. In less than 150 pages, we have four viewpoints, first and third person narratives, and a completely disjointed plot with lots of gaps, dead ends and no real resolution. Also ZERO lunatic asylums. It's all a bit odd. If that sort of thing isn't your cup of tea, which it most likely isn't, it might be best to move on now.

Second Chances
Given a chance for reincarnation and tasked by the System, I picked the Sidhe for this second life. A world of Seelie, Unseelie, Kelpie, Redcaps, and Slaugh. The Gods of the Tuantha de Danann forced into sleep, the people forced to remain locked on their home planet. In this latest Book, Teigh Mac de Beleros y Cyronax has saved his people from stagnation and ruin. His denouncement of Olympus and Asgard before the Universal Senate has allowed the Sidhe to break the ties that constrained them, and the chains that kept them rooted to their home world. But the Sidhe and the Tuatha de Danann are unique across all multi-verses and all Pantheons. They have the unique ability to travel anywhere and anywhen. But this ability comes at a cost. The Tuatha de Danann do not have incarnations seeded across each Universe. There is only one Tuatha de Danann, and when Athena and Loki come to Teigh with the tales of a plot that will destroy not only the Tuatha de Danann but the multi-verse, he removes his crown to once more face off against Zeus and Odin and save his people. Second Chances has been taken down for editing and a major rewrite...
