It has been a couple of days since the first group of scouts came to my dungeon. Since then nearly 20 more have come after me, not one has left alive. Because of this, I have been able to grow to level 16 and unlock the skill "Core Modification." This skill lets me upgrade my core to make it tougher and give it abilities. Flare and Gust have also evolved along with many worker beetles becoming warriors. In their new forms, Flare is able to set his body on fire and Gust is able to use a pulse of air like a sonar. It's with these new upgrades that I wait in my core and watch as human after human falls to my dungeon.

With this thought in mind, I notice yet another party enter my dungeon. They have an all so familiar conversation of the people who died before them and enter my dungeon. Not paying much attention to them, I send a worker after them to let it evolve and get back to thinking.

After about 3 minutes I notice something interesting. The beetle was slain by them. Paying more attention to them, I move my vision to them. Seeing them, I look the four of them over. The one that seems to be the leader is a man that uses twin swords and has light chainmail on him. The next one is a large man with full plate mail and a sword as large as he is. Behind them is an old man in robes, with a staff in his hands and scorch marks around him. In front of them, there is a man dressed in light armor looking for traps.

While looking them over I notice that they don't have the crest of the empire on them.

(Adam) "That's strange. Everyone who has come in here up to this point has had that crest on them. Does this mean that they aren't part of the empire? Then why are they here? Maybe I should listen to what they are saying."

(Mage) "I can't believe that this dungeon had a named monster. What was that thing?"

(leader) "I don't know. I have never even heard of something like that before. It might have been a unique monster"

(Rouge) "I don't know about that, but this dungeon is definitely full of traps. We have already run into around 20 so far."

They keep talking after this, but I just ignore them to start thinking about what I just learned.

(Adam) "They think that the normal beetles are named monsters? That means that my dungeon is already much stronger that a normal dungeon of the same age. Against people like this, I am pretty much invincible. Let's show them what they get for understanding me." And it is with this thought that I send Blaze after them.

I watch as he reaches them and starts to fight with them by lighting his body on fire and attacking the rogue. Managing to reach him before anyone can react, he smashes him into the wall, killing him almost instantly.

Seeing that their friend was killed right before them, they draw their weapons and start to fight. Right away the man with the large sword runs and Blaze and swings his sword. Expecting nothing to happen, I watch calmly as the man swings his sword down. Only to be surprised when the sword almost cuts through the exoskeleton, stopping just inches from piercing right through it. Seeing this I panic and tell Blaze to kill them no matter what it takes.

Seeming to understand me, he starts to gather his strength and moves towards the Mage. I hear a crunching sound as the large sword rips apart his exoskeleton as he runs forward. As he reaches the Mage, he concentrates the fire on his pincers and starts to burns the man alive as the other two run after him. The Mage starts to scream as he is quickly being burnt alive by the Mage.

Finally reaching Blaze the two men swing their swords with tears in their eyes for their fallen comrades, the finally price Blazes exoskeleton. Crying out in pain I start to fell the Mana in the room move towards Blaze. I watch in shock as the Mana in the room all gathers in Blaze right before he detonates his core, exploding.

I stare at the room unable to think as the smoke in the rooms clears. I look for Blaze but all that's left is some shattered pieces of his exoskeleton. Ignoring the level up notification I start to think about what just happened.

(Adam) "What is wrong with me? Why did I send him in on his own? I made so many of them so that I could swarm my enemies. Not play with them. I'm normally better than this." "What is happening to me?"

It is because you are a dungeon. Your mental state is slowly starting to be more like theirs. You have been fighting it but you are slowly succumbing to it. Did you not think it strange that you had no qualms with killing people.

(Adam) "So I'm just doomed to become just a normal dungeon that kills people for Life Points till I'm one day destroyed."

No. You can fight against it, to try and remain yourself. If you can do this till you are able to find a way to make a body for yourself, then you will be able to remain you.

(Adam) "Is there a skill that lets me get a body then?"

There is, but I have no idea how to get it.

(Adam) "So I need to find out on my own? Fine then, as soon as I'm done with this empire, I'm making myself a body."

There is also the problem of the heroes and demon lords. None of them are after you yet, but once they learn of your existence, they will come after you without mercy. Then there are the gods themselves, they might not be able to directly interfere with the world, but they can create an avatar to use against you.

(Adam) "Why can't they directly interfere with the world. Also, why would they come after me?"

The gods hate dungeon, they drain the power of their world. That's why they offer rewards to whoever is able to destroy them. With the speed that you grow at, they might see you as a threat to their world. If this happens, they will do everything in their power to destroy you. As for them being unable to directly interfere with the world, they are only minor gods of this small world. There are many that are above them and many at the same level as them. they must follow the rules set by those above them.[/td]

(Adam) "So the gods that summoned me here aren't that strong?

[tr]Don't get any ideas. They might not be that strong in the grand scheme of things, but compared to you they are an invisible existence that you have no hope of beating.

(Adam) "Ok, for now, I'll just work on beating the empire and getting a body." And with my conversation over, I start to think of a way to beat the empire.

(Authors notes) Sorry about not uploading a chapter yesterday. I got a new video game and ended up playing it all day. To make up for it I'm planning on realising two chapters today.
