All cities welcomed Minato as if he was a hero about to save them, then he just went through the dungeon with his beloved or even alone. The clear was quick and without any danger.
Minato also filled the Evil Seed with more hatred. Not knowing what would come out from it was quite a common thought in his mind.
He also bonded well with dungeon races.
"I plan to use those armors as cover for the medium world," Minato held the royal golden armor.
That golden armor looked like your usual armor, but it would shrink and blend with one's body upon imbuing mana.
It was naturally the superhero armor from the Hard Steel Empire.
Before Minato, a woman with beautiful curves smiled, and she patted the armor, "The Empire made armors with the help of our volcano's runes. Without us, they wouldn't even be able to conjure it.
We have thoroughly stolen their method and enhanced it further, Master," Veronica side-glanced at Minato with pride and confidence.
He liked that expression, "This armor will hide my Overlord's Mana in the Medium World. I heard that dungeons here are like communities."
"That's probably the case," Veronica crossed her arms beneath those perky tits and nodded a few times.
The new royal dungeon armor was enhanced to use the user's magic circles. By equipping that armor, Minato would give it his diamond defense. He would be able to fight and make moves without revealing his status.
He was often told how Medium Worlds were different breeds.
Veronica agreed with him.
She then raised a unique question, "Has Master practiced your rune?"
"I have... Still, I can't really bring out more of its power..." Minato awkwardly replied.
Veronica was good with runes, and those were physical strength! Since Minato had Overlord Physique, it was normal for him to use that part. So far, Minato has been focusing on magic circles only.
Bei and Yuna were high spirits that used those the best.
However, Yuna also was more or less self-taught. She couldn't help Minato with the physique, and there was no need until now.
But as Minato was about to finish the dungeon run in the low world, he should think about the physique and its abilities.
It was hard, though.
His Overlord Pillar easily accepted the Snake Concubine's rune, and she left terrifying power in his hands. Her experience yet again astounded Minato as he kept trying to reach the depths of his rune.
"I was stunned when you told me you just do the job. I expected Master to use a physique related to dual cultivation with how good and beneficial it was. Something like Lust Overlord, perhaps?" Veronica grinned from ear to ear, "I might lack understanding about Overlords, but Master's World always left me with one question."
As Veronica tried to help Minato wholeheartedly, he smiled faintly and asked, "What is it?"
"Where does mana come from?" Veronica asked seriously.
Minato's Overlord Pillar represented his strength. It also could store powerful runes that would help him in the future, but it didn't produce mana. It also would become the whole world in the future.
Minato's physique also shouldn't steal this mana from the low world. If it did, the consequences would already reach them. After all, so many races lived in Minato's world. They all benefited so much by living here that their mana reserves multiplied. If he sucked from the low earth, it would crumble soon enough!
Did he have any reply to these words? Of course, Minato didn't!
He scratched his hair and sighed, "I will keep it in mind. Produce a few of those armors in the meantime."
"As you wish, Master," Veronica nodded, then went straight to work.
Minato did the same.
He climbed up the world tree, then enjoyed the silence without anyone around. Minato closed his eyes and breathed slowly.
So far, he knew that his physique, magic circles, world's ability, and possessiveness were out of the norm.
Did at least one of those things hide the answer to his rune?
Minato focused deeply. His eyelids sometimes trembled, and his breathing often stopped for a few seconds. He tried to connect to his rune and conjure a raw ability out of it, to no avail. Nothing came out, and he just kept wasting time.
Minato sighed and stood up, "I will just clean the dungeons."

In a higher world where many beautiful races gathered, a peculiar blonde-haired woman wore a dress made out of exquisite fabric. Her beauty eclipsed many guests, even though boredom remained on her face.
She wasn't alone as a black-haired woman with always narrowed eyes stood on her side.
Both those princesses had already enjoyed their brother's birthday enough. It was a party, a competition, a party, and a competition.
That circle bore them to death as no one competed seriously against them.
But more than anything, these two gorgeous ladies missed a specific person's company.
"Yuna... I don't know what you've been up to lately, but you can leave. The same goes for you, Bei. I won't be sad," Their brother and the celebrant of this whole party came up to the two beauties and smiled at them.
Mixed emotions flashed in Yuna's eyes.
She didn't want to hurt her brother, but the party lasted longer than it should have. On the other hand, she wanted Minato to be with her and introduce him to all. The fact that she couldn't was what had been debilitating her from the inside.
Bei instantly flashed a dazzling smile, "That's fucking great! I will give you a much better present in the future, big brother. See you!"
She took Yuna's hand and waved back at their big brother.
Yuna was taken aback by that sudden movement, so she waved her hand for as long as she could.
The two ladies disappeared on the horizon.
Their brother smiled, then chuckled, "I hope introducing whoever you've fallen for won't count as the present... But who is it? I can only thank fate for the giant race that couldn't have come to my party. Otherwise, Yuna would know about father's plan..."
Forced marriage was never good!
Even one of Yuna and Bei's brothers thought the same.
His wife, who heard him well, parted her lips, "Should we try to follow them? If their beloved turns out weak, we can secretly assist him with treasures to increase his strength. With how rich we are, we can make even the commoner from the low world a top talent in the high world."
"Nope," Big brother said, "We will make sure no one sees their path. It's not like the eldest princess is poor, my dear wife."
"I know," His wife rolled her eyes at him as it was not what she wanted to convey. Still, she followed his words and secured the safe return path for the two princesses.
Bei also used her magic circles, but it became perfect after big brother's wife lent her hand to her.
Thus, no one saw where the two disappeared, including their father.
But the birthday party and the two princesses' attitudes rang a few alarms in all higher-ups, including a few unaware princesses.
