Dungeon Maker

Eligor explained.

“Through the dungeon’s spirit, if you connect to the dungeon’s shop, the spirit that come out of the shop will guide you.”

The dungeon shop was a place where the dungeon merchants gathered and it was such a large group that it took up a large portion of the dungeon.

The dungeon shop sold items that helped maintain, enlarge and pay for the dungeon. In the list of items, “workforce” was also included.

The dungeon shop had many branches within the demon world. But, they also had a “Virtual Space” that’s been created out of magic.

The head of the dungeon is able to access that space through the dungeon shop’s artifact. All items that are distributed to the shops are stored in the Virtual Space and even if the demons don’t visit the branch, they’re able to look at the items within the dungeon shop.

‘In simple terms, is it like an online shopping mall?’

Just like how there was a master in all things, purchasing from Virtual Space wasn’t simple and easy.

The buyers that use Virtual Space needed a lot more money, mana and sometimes needed to make payments through other methods.

Truthfully, it’s safe to say that the House of Mammon was crumbling down, so using Virtual Space could be considered a luxury. But, Eligor suggested that he use Virtual Space instead of visiting the branch office.

There were different reasons.

The first reason was that the House of Mammon was located on the outskirts, so it took a really long time to go to the nearest branch and the second reason was that the demon world outside of the dungeon was extremely dangerous.

Yong-Ho didn’t want to step outside of the dungeon just yet, so he agreed with Eligor.

“Master, we will connect you to the dungeon shop. It may sting a little, but it’s only for a short while, so please relax.”

The Spirit of the Dungeon spoke in a cute voice.

It’s safe to say that Spirit of the Dungeon was the demon’s alter ego. He was suspicious about whether a cute girl was really somewhere inside him, but he somewhat accepted it. He decided to accept it as a good thing.

Yong-Ho had his eyes closed, so he couldn’t see anything. But the darkness that enveloped everything only lasted for a moment. Yong-Ho saw a familiar figure that was standing in a white space.

“Hello, valued customer.”

The dungeon merchant, Sitri, greeted in an old-fashioned manner and bowed. The only thing that changed about her outfit was that it was now blue, but because everything else was still the same, Yong-Ho tried his best keep his attention towards the sky.

“Hello, Ms. Sitiri.”

It was worth looking at Catalina’s face for most of the day. It’s because he was able to greet the beautiful Sitri with confidence.

Sitri looked at Yong-Ho and a smile appeared on her face. She took a step towards him and spoke.

“I think I know what you’re thinking about.”

Sitri was there when they had the ritual for him to ascend the throne. And Sitri was waiting here for Yong-Ho too.

But Sitri shook her head.

“I’m not the official dungeon merchant of Maimon’s house. I’m sorry to say this, but it’s already been over 1,000 years since Maimon was one of the Seven Deadly SIns. And-”

“And?”

When he asked back, Sitri laughed slightly mischievously. She spoke after winking to Yong-Ho.

“I’m more important than you think.”

Just how was he supposed to respond in a situation like this?

While Yong-Ho was thinking about what he should say, Sitri continued laughing. She took a couple more steps and stood next to him. She hugged Yong-Ho’s arm.

“This isn’t the first time that someone with human blood ascended to the throne. However, within the demon world’s long history, it’s only happened a couple of times. And among them, there hasn’t been one person that had the blood of one of the Seven Deadly SIns.”

The way her breasts felt through his arm was so amazing that he couldn’t express them in words. With a dumb face, Yong-Ho couldn’t help but enjoy that feel. He was swept into an unusual situation, but Yong-Ho wasn’t stupid. Even though they pressured him into becoming the head of the dungeon, Yong-Ho made the decision to be one.

The biggest reason why Eligor recommended the Virtual Space was.

The fact that the House of Maimon had a new owner and that the new owner was human hasn’t been known in the demon world. It’s safe to say that Sitri was the only one that knew about it.

It wasn’t time yet. It would complicate things if the other demons knew the truth about Yong-Ho ascending to the throne.

Eligor didn’t clearly say the most important reason. It wasn’t because he was trying to hide it. He was scared that Yong-Ho would be afraid.

Yong-Ho somewhat knew what Eligor was feeling. Since he belonged to his dungeon, it was hard for him to keep a secret from Yong-Ho.

Yong-Ho looked at Sitri’s face. Sitri looked at Yong-Ho with her purple eyes. Her red lips whispered.

“Be careful of the purebloods.”

The amazing touch that he felt through his arm disappeared. Sitri moved like the wind and stood in front of Yong-Ho with her back turned and as she waved her hands in the air, a large window of light was created.

“There isn’t a big difference between the low level demons that work in the dungeon. Also...considering the current state of the dungeon, the demons will most likely be low leveled ones. There won’t be much of a difference.”

You get what you pay for.

This is comparing apples and oranges.

Since it was true, Yong-Ho didn’t feel disappointed. Also, Sitri wasn’t saying those things to provoke Yong-Ho.

Sitri turned around again. With the window of light behind her, she put on a seductive smile.

“But, the Demon of Evolution, valued customer. Everything isn’t the same to you, is it?”

Yong-Ho thought about how he should react this time too. Sitri gave him a hint and ever since he connected to the Virtual Space, he confirmed that it was possible.

“Then, I shall take my leave now. Valued customer, please enjoy shopping.”

After bowing gracefully, Sitri disappeared like she said she would. In the white room, all that was left was the large window of light that Sitri opened and Yong-Ho.

Yong-Ho first let out a big sigh.

‘I’m tired.’

She was a very beautiful woman, but she was difficult to handle. Just from her gestures and speech, it looked like she had feelings for Yong-Ho, but it was hard to confirm it. He thought it would be best to maintain a certain distance from her.

Yong-Ho shook his head. He was delusional ever since he was in his third year in middle school, but it’s only been two days since he became a demon. On top of that, the demon form he imagined was very different from his current form.

It was true that he was feeling uneasy and scared.

But, like always, Yong-Ho tried to find the positive side of things. In order to resolve the issues that were in front of him, he looked into reality.

The large window of light that Sitri created was like a computer screen. There were two options on the window.

[Dungeon Shop Demon Catalogue]

[Low Level Worker Demon List (No Stars)]

[Skeleton]

[Goblin]

Yong-Ho couldn’t help but laugh. He heard it from Eligor earlier, but seeing the words that usually appear in video games on the window made it feel odd.

‘Do I have to go for the Goblin?’

The good thing about the undead monster, Skeleton, was that they didn’t need to be fed. When compared to the other option, they were more useful when it came to how long they’re able to work.

However, the Skeleton required that much more mana in order to maintain them. The House of Maimon’s dungeon lacked in many things, but among them, the thing they lacked the most and needed the most was mana.

Yong-Ho waved his finger in the air and when he selected Goblin, the window of light changed. Dozens of rooms appeared and a Goblin was in each room, making it look like a character selection window from a game.

The price of one Goblin was 20 Gold.

Eligor already paid 40 Gold to the dungeon shop, so he could choose two among them.

Then which Goblin should he pick among them?

Yong-Ho took a deep breath. He activated his Power of Evolution.
