Dungeon Monsters Keep Offering Sacrifices

51 – Drawing the second lieutenant (2)

From noble mtl dot com

Vampire Aren.

He was a young vampire who barely escaped from the Paladin’s massive attack.

Currently, she had left the dungeon where she originally lived. She was satisfied with her current location.

“I like this place because I have a lot of friends!”

Vampire butterflies were flying around Aren.

Aren caught a flying vampire butterfly and stuffed it into her mouth.

The more she chewed, the more the juice of the vampire butterfly burst out in her mouth.

“… Delicious! “As expected, the butterfly friend is screwed!”

Aren’s red eyes shone brightly.

That’s how satisfied Aren was with her current life.

She was in the middle of playing with the vampire butterflies flying around, and for a moment she looked at her corner.

Some beings were settled there.

“Ugh….”

The people perched in the corner are giant tarantulas.

They were still drooling as they looked at Aren.

“They are not friends….”

At that time, Aren looked sullen and tried to turn her gaze elsewhere.

“You were playing quietly here?”

A savior has appeared.

“Pretty sister!”

It was Celia.

Aren immediately jumped into Celia’s arms.

This is a dungeon where Celia is the general manager.

The dungeon was composed of several areas and was quite large, and Aren was staying in a place called area 3.

Area 3 is a place close to nature, with large fields and man-eating plants, vampire butterflies, and spiders living there.

Celia built a small hut for Aren, who was staying in that place.

Of course, she did not receive any compensation at all.

Aren was not yet officially a member of the dungeon.

She was a visitor.

To be strictly speaking, she was like a dungeon refugee.

She couldn’t let Aren play around like that, so Celia gave Aren a mission.

She was a district official.

Different from other areas, Area 3 had no monsters that thought and acted on their own.

Therefore, Aren walked around directly following Celia’s orders, and she was managing the monsters in Area 3.

And the reason why Celia came to Aren now was not much different.

“Today, I’m going to give Aren a different mission.”

Celia smiled and stroked Aren’s head once.

“Yes!”

Aren also smiled and answered while feeling Celia’s touch on her.

“Aren is so kind.”

As Celia praised, she handed something of hers to Aren.

It was a small box.

Aren received the box and checked the contents inside.

Crawling-

Something was writhing inside the box.

When I looked closely, I saw that it was something like an earthworm.

“Giggles… ?”

Aren muttered as he looked at the twitching being.

“Yes, that’s right. This is a child given by the Great One. From now on, Aren’s job is to raise that child well. Because it is so important, there can be absolutely no mistakes. “Okay?”

Celia believed that Aren would handle this level of mission well.

Originally, she would have raised it on her own, but she was currently in a situation where she had a lot of work piled up.

In this situation, her hand was in vain, so she left it to Aren.

Celia advised and cautioned Aren.

With caution.

“Instead, if Aren raises her well, I will let her spider friends out.”

Carrots were also presented to raise Aren’s motivation.

“Really… ?”

Sure enough.

Aren’s eyes shined once again.

For Aren, spider friends, or rather spiders that were not friends, were not people he wanted to become friends with.

That’s why Celia’s words were so welcoming.

“Don’t worry! “I will take good care of my little friend!”

Aren clenched her fists, showing her confidence.

She immediately opened the box and placed her self-proclaimed little friend in the palm of her hand.

“You little friend! Aren will protect you from now on!”

As if she understood Aren’s aspirations, her wriggler wriggled even more vigorously.

While watching the snail, Aren quickly caught a vampire butterfly around her with her skillful hands.

Then, she placed it in front of her.

“Let’s be friends with butterflies too!”

The twig began to squirm and wrap around her vampire butterfly that Aren had caught.

After covering her entire body, she suddenly began to open her mouth.

There were small thorn-like things stuck inside her mouth.

“Oh! “As expected, the turtle friend also likes the butterfly friend!”

Aren muttered that and looked closely at her wig.

“Huh? What is this?”

Something fell on Aren’s palm as the snail was squirming.

“… Scales?”

From Aren’s perspective, her twitching felt similar to something about her, not only in appearance but also in surface level.

“Ah! “It’s just like a long friend!”

Aren’s long friend, a snake, also had scales like that.

However, the scales of the kkomulgi felt a little harder.

‘When my little friend grows up, will she turn into a long friend?’

Aren looked at her little girl, feeling her anticipation and excitement.

* · * *

Name: Little baby worm, snail (★)

Characteristics: A young worm. Crawling on the ground

– Would you like to be set as an adjutant for the dungeon ‘Evil God’s Nest’?

– [Yes] [No]

Kkomul-i is the last 10th winner of the adjutant draw.

She was originally going to refuse.

But if she refused, the price of the next adjutant draw would double, so she had no choice but to choose him as her adjutant.

“Okay, let’s think positively.”

Celia was also originally a 3 star.

Since that person is now exerting tremendous influence, wouldn’t she be able to expect extraordinary growth from her as well?

Of course, I knew very well that it would be unreasonable to compare her to Celia.

Still, she did not give up hope because she believed that she still had a small chance.

In addition, she was secretly hoping that a separate promotion perk package would be released like in Celia’s case, but it did not appear.

“Actually, it’s not right to rely too much on packages.”

I made myself understand and sent the snail from the lottery to Celia.

The dungeon where Celia was the general manager could be seen as having a well-established system.

The possibility of this system completely collapsing just because she attached a 1-star monster as an adjutant was in fact converged to zero.

“Let’s pick out monsters separately.”

I apologized to Celia and checked the list of dungeons.

[Evil God’s Nest]

– General Manager: Celia (★★★★★★)

– Adjutant: Kkomouli (★)

– Affiliated management dungeons: [Red-Haired Tribe], [Village Covered in Fog], [Dregs of the Demon World], [Sticky Puddle]

– Special note: There is a core of the dungeon that is connected by soul to the owner, Lee Kang-hyeon.

“Looking at it this way, there’s such a difference, isn’t it?”

There is 1 star under 6 stars….

If there was a package that would help Gkomulgi grow, I was definitely going to buy it.

For the time being, I just felt sorry for Celia and hoped that the little girl would grow up well.

I prepared for the next lottery.

Now that we’ve given Celia a new lieutenant, it’s time to give it to Azmo.

Fortunately, the adjutant to be selected this time was decided quite easily.

As soon as I started the lottery again, a monster with four stars appeared.

Name: Transformation genius, Better (★★★★)

Characteristics: A slime whose entire body is blue.

He is a transformation genius with the characteristic of imitating the appearance of others.

Once a bettor sees something, he never forgets it and copies its appearance. While copying the appearance, the other person’s characteristics are also copied, albeit slightly.

– Would you like to be set as an adjutant for the dungeon ‘Temptation of Illusion’?

– [Yes] [No]

“Wow!”

Blue slime appeared all over the body.

Just saying it’s a slime makes it look weak, but it was actually a 4 star.

“I can’t believe you’re just copying his appearance.”

When I even checked the contents, it was a monster that seemed useful in many ways.

“If we do this, one of the biggest problems will disappear.”

The dungeon where Azmo is the manager currently has one big problem.

The point was that the composition was too simple and standardized.

Since all monsters are made up of incubus, it will be easy for the intruders to respond.

In fact, most dungeons of grade B or higher were difficult because monsters of various attributes appeared.

It was difficult because we had to calculate the number of different cases and bring in several hunters to respond.

If there was an incubus like now, it was only a matter of time before it was robbed.

It was said that the Death Knight and Arch Lich were together now, but it was impossible to place them in that dungeon forever.

To be clear, I had no choice but to pay more attention to the original dungeon where my life was at stake than to Azumo’s dungeon.

Of course, I didn’t do the foolish thing of easily abandoning Azmo’s dungeon.

“The more dungeons you have, the better.”

I immediately assigned the guy who came out of the lieutenant draw to Azmo.

[Temptation of illusion]

– Administrator: Azmo (★★★★)

– Adjutant: Better (★★★★)

I only assigned an additional lieutenant, but I already felt proud.

Finally, I touched the screen to check another dungeon I owned.

This was the dungeon where Ji Tae-hoon and Ji Seong-min were caught last time.

This is a level F skeleton dungeon.

Is it because of my ‘true dungeon master’ trait?

Originally, humans could not hear the skeleton’s words.

But I started to hear their words.

Thanks to this, I was able to communicate with the F-class skeletons, monsters that exist in the dungeon, and they swore loyalty to me.

Well, I received loyalty because I had nothing to lose as long as there were a lot of dungeons.

“Well, you can’t manage them separately?”

The problem is that, unlike other dungeons, there was no way to manage the F-class skeleton dungeon, whose loyalty I had directly received.

[Weak Skeleton Dungeon]

– Manager: Vacancy

I couldn’t even raise anyone to administrator at will.

The name of the Skeleton Dungeon just appeared and took up one of the screen lists, and there was nothing I could touch.

“Should I go and manage this place myself?”

What a troublesome system it is.

I felt like I needed to find out why this place couldn’t be managed through a smartphone.

‘Temptation of Illusion’ dungeon.

There, Azmo, the manager, kept talking to someone.

“If you have this air freshener, your clothes will smell really good.”

Azmo said that and started spraying air freshener on the clothes in front of her.

Chik-Chik-

“How are you? Doesn’t it smell very nice?”

Just as Azmo said, the clothes started to smell good.

The being who owned the clothes nodded and was satisfied.

It was the Death Knight.

The maid uniform attached to her shield smells so good.

It was a Death Knight that left me with great satisfaction.

At the same time, there was an Arch Lich next to him.

I had recently been promoted from Lich to Arch Lich thanks to the grace of my master.

He was also ecstatic and satisfied with the oil applied by Azmo’s subordinates.

Maybe this is heaven?

Death Knight and Arch Lich wanted to stay in this dungeon a little longer.

And then.

A change has begun.

Wooow-

The entrance to the dungeon began to vibrate.
