Chapter 219: Confronting The Dungeon Core!

—–

The Dungeon Core devoured me! I was about to completely absorb his powers but then… he just gulped me down into his Dungeon Core before I could even do anything. And then I found myself within a completely white space. In there, the Dungeon Core's soul was present, a mass of endless darkness and shadows. But even if I knew who he was, I still didn't knew why he was doing this, or what were his intentions, so I decided to speak, even if a little.

"Who are you really?" I wondered.

"…I am a Dungeon Core." He said in silence. "My purpose is to expand, conquer, and devour… I must thrive at all costs. You're an annoyance that has gotten in my way twice by now."

"You're made out of Lucifer's remnants!" I roared. "Can't you at least recognize it?"

"We Dungeon Cores are formed when high concentrations of Miasma are gathered in a single place, I am born from such mud of life…" He said. "I do not care who brought it to life."

"So you're not stopping even with talking?" I asked.

"No."

"Alright."

BOOOM!!!

I moved swiftly towards his soul and punched it with my bare phantasmal hands. His faceless face quickly distorted, showing visible white cracks across it, as pieces of his soul fell apart, his entire soul body began to roll through the ground for several meters.

"AAKH…!" He cried in agony, and also disbelief. "H-How can you damage me inside of my own body?! I already ate you… Become my power and disappear!"

The Dungeon Core's soul pointed his hands at me, as countless shadows tentacles emerged one after the other from within him, trying to attack me and consume me. I felt slightly weakened in here, but all of my Skills could be used. I quickly unleashed [Dark Sun] without even doubting it for a second!

"Blast away, bastard!"

FLUOOOOOSSSSHHH!

The enormous sphere of dark flames emerged over my body, as I lunged it at him at a fast speed. The enormous black fireball clashed against him as he tried to hopelessly run away, the flames consumed his body as a loud explosion created shockwaves all across the interior of the Dungeon Core, cracking the floor, ceiling, and everything within this dark space.

BOOOMMM!

"U-Uggh…! T-This is burning! Uuaaaggggh…! GRAAAAAAAHHH…!"

The Dungeon Core Soul was incredibly weak! I didn't expect him to be this weak, but he couldn't even fight back against me. I might as well devour the soul as well while we are at it, there's no point in trying to make him our friend. I flew directly towards him, spreading my phantasmal limbs and grabbing him.

"Phantasmal Stomach… Yog-Sothoth." I conjured the two Skills that could allow me to devour and absorb anything, and quickly opened my jaws, which distorted alongside my entire body, until I realized I looked like an enormous phantasmal mass of tumors, eyes, and tentacles, with a massive maw that seemed to have no end to it.

"N-No…! Wait! Stop…! STOOOP!"

"Goodbye."

The Dungeon Core cried and asked for mercy, but I didn't listen to him, I quickly threw him off into my jaws, crushing him with the hundreds of materialized teeth I grew from my very soul, crushing him, tearing him apart into pieces, until I swallowed him.

Gulp.

FLASH!

And right after that, I felt even more power being absorbed into the core of my soul, overflowing across my entire being… Devouring a Dungeon truly feels nice. I think I even gained a ton of EXP but- What do I do now?

Crack… crack!

The entire Dungeon Core began to crack, and fall apart… If it destroys, the entire dungeon outside will also be destroyed, and everyone will get buried before we can even escape! Shit, I think I went a bit too ahead of myself.

[Calm down, Maria.]

The System suddenly interrupted me, as he tried to calm me down.

[While you fought the Dungeon Soul, I've already analyzed the structure of the Dungeon Core. Similarly to the structure of the Job-Changing Crystal, it is some sort of Divine Material made by Gods, but even that can be hacked through the power of the System Unique Skill.]

Hack?! Are you actually going to hack a dungeon, System? You can do that?

[Quite easily so, after you've absorbed the and devoured the Dungeon Soul, I've gotten the last information and data necessary to replace him, I shall divide a part of my own self and insert it into the Dungeon Core, this way the System can also connect to the Dungeon Core and not let it be destroyed… Now touch the floor!]

Alright!

I touched the floor without any delay, as I felt the power of the System flowing through my phantasmal body. It felt like a bright, white and pale blue light cursing through everything. I quickly saw several system windows emerging one after the other and closing quickly after, showing all sorts of data, codes, and other programing things I didn't had any idea what they were for.

[Hacking in progress…]

[Processing Dungeon Core's Synapsis]

[Dungeon Core motor functions had been hacked and absorbed]

[Dungeon Core essence battery has been found, hacking…]

[Dungeon Core Essence battery hacked, accessing Dungeon's Heart]

[Processing…]

[Success!]

FLAAAAASH!

Then I saw countless of magic circuits emerging all across the interior of the Dungeon Core, constantly repairing all the damage as I felt my own energy being drained back to repair it… Ugh, wait! Don't steal my Mana now, I am weakening!

When things finally ended, the entire White Space was as lustrous as I remember, and the entire Dungeon stopped trembling and almost falling apart in the outside world… I looked around my surroundings, as the humanoid figure of the System, which was made completely out of white and gray light emerged before me.

"It must be done by now; I have become the Dungeon's Soul. And you shall be assigned the Title of Dungeon Master, Maria."

Ding!

[The [Unique Skill: System] has successfully hacked and taken over [Dungeon Core #10280]!]

[The System has acquired several Dungeon Functions and has become the [Soul of the Dungeon]

[You've been assigned as the [Dungeon Master]!]

Ding!

[You acquired the [Dungeon Master: Lv1] Title Skill!]

[You acquired the [Dungeon Destroyer: Lv1] Title Skill!]

[You learned the [Dungeon Manipulation: Lv1] Magic Skill!]
