Chapter 951

“We’re preparing for war!” I announced. “Increase production. Perfect your training. Increase your levels. Are these maps accurate?”

“Yes, I believe this would be the best dungeon to rapidly level soldiers in.” Terra pointed to one of the dungeons labeled in a crude map of the wilderness. “It’s small, with no lethal traps on the first ten floors, and it seems to have a meek temperament.”

Speaking of a dungeon’s temperament seemed silly, but it was true that dungeons seemed to have moods. These were often a reflection of their Dungeon Master. Mina’s Dungeon had been aggressive and angry, while the Mirror Dungeon was calm and stable. The wild dungeons weren’t tamed like the Great Dungeons, but this seemed to be the timidest of them. That could change if we started sending tons of men in, so it was a risk, but I refused to wait. Dungeons were dangerous. These men had to accept that.

“Raissa, I’m not comfortable with you going.”

“It’s okay, Master, I’ll stay in the safe rooms.” Raissa declared, blushing slightly. “I’m not that pregnant yet. I can still be useful to Master.”

I truly did need her training, especially since Lydia had left. I had always seen Lydia as the most loyal to me. Losing her and Miki had truly shattered a lot of my confidence. Although I refused to change back into a man until fake Deek was defeated, Shao and Terra had lay with me last night to comfort me. I didn’t let Celeste sleep with me since she decided she was bisexual. She could get a little handsy and it made me uncomfortable. I put my foot down when she shrank down and tried to go inside me like I had done to a certain giant once. She was seriously a pervert sometimes.

Speaking of the giant and my dungeon, Elaya had spoken honestly. Although the miasma didn’t reject me, the dungeon had seemingly gone hostile. The basement path had been sealed up, and the only way I could go in was through the entrance. She had hidden the 1st level safe room and then quadrupled the mobs on the first level. Looking for it would force me to have to fight through my monsters, which would only serve to weaken us in the long run.

This was also why I needed to use one of the dungeons the ladies had spent the last few weeks mapping out. Then again, leveling my guys in my own dungeon was basically exchanging the power of my dungeon for levels. Ultimately, it made more sense to use a foreign dungeon for this anyway.

“Very well, I give you permission. Celeste, you can make portals to ferry the men and Raissa to and from the dungeon. Keep them safe. Level them as quickly as you can.”

“Yes, master!” Raissa nodded.

“I will!” Celeste added.

“Terra, have you finished the moat yet? I’d like the walls to be reinforced next.”

“Master, I was hoping you could give me permission to work on another project.”

“Hmm?”

“After seeing Carmine on Mas… ahem… the other Deek’s side, she has a very strong armor that she must have gotten from a dungeon.”

“What about it?”

“Although I will finish the moat in time, reinforcing the walls to any significant degree would be useless. Thus, I’d like Master’s permission. I’ve had an idea for a while now. I’d like to build something that can increase my fighting power!”
