The Dungeon Struggle of an Earth Dragon!

"I'm Gonna Be A Dungeon Master"

That's what I proclaimed when I came back to the lower level.

Talk to me.

In front of me is a killer ant with a small neck.

The demon that became my family the other day.

His name is Ann.

A little bigger than a regular killer ant.

'Ha, ha... Really?'

Ann with a puzzled look.

You're an ant, so you don't understand the expression. Shit.

'Oh, that's the thing. So Ann, I'm going to ask you to take charge of this low-rise floor boss.'

"Yes, no, no, no!?

Maybe Ann has a surprised look on her face right now.

I mean, this little ant's been swarming up on me for a while now, right?

It doesn't hurt, but why are these guys biting me?

I'd love to crush you so much, but I'm patient.

"Oh, what did that dragon just say!?

"So, I want you to work as a floor boss that oversees this low-lying, or first-to-fifth, tier."

Mainly as a servant.

Meat walls.

Be sacrificed.

No, I'd be somewhat troubled if I died, but it's a wall role for me.

Oh, it hurts a little.

So don't bite me. Seriously, I'm gonna crush you, Ants.

"Wow, it's me... that's horrible..."

'No, I can.

That's how I took out the jewels, no demon stones.

"Are you a demon stone?!? So many! Besides, this is... '

Ann is surprised.

This is the demonic stone that was inside the hidden doors of the ruins. I found it when I was eating the mural.

Well, then I figured out all the other stashes and stuff when I ate the polar-colored sphere.

Well, it felt like a hidden safe, with tons of demon stones inside.

Moreover, it is of considerable purity to try to compare it with knowledge.

There were several more demonic stones with interesting “effects”.

This is an artificial demon stone made by Elibel.

"You can eat it."

'Huh? Is that okay!?

Oh, I don't mind.

Ann is surprised.

That would be so.

Even now, I also finally learned the rare value of Demon Stone with my knowledge from the ruins.

The Demon Stone seems to be a lot more expensive in this world.

Traded at high prices among people and demons alike.

They say there's one inside, and enough demonic stones to buy one country at a time.

Well, it was monetary value at the time. I don't know why it is now.

In the meantime, the demon stone in front of you would also be of considerable value.

I'm saying I'll spare you that.

Don't be surprised.

Well, it's just a snack for me.

I can take a lot.

'............ ok! Thank you. Sit down!

Ann slowly begins to eat that demonic stone.

All right, that's good. That's good.

Eat. Eat.

Actually, I mixed one special guy with the Demon Stone.

It's a "special” demon stone marked with an Elibel.

If my predictions are correct...

'Shh, it's amazing! Such purity demon stones. I've never eaten them before! Oh, no, the Demon Stone itself was the first time I got it for Master Diryu, but still, this is amazing! I don't know what's amazing, it's really amazing already!

... That's a really retarded food rep.

Well, I can't talk about people either.

Anne swallows the last demonic stone.

A round demon stone about the size of a white cobbler.

Oh, it's me.

It's an example demon stone.

The next moment, Ann glowed.

Still, that's dazzling.

'Whoa, whoa, whoa! This is AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!

Amazing Ann.

But I was expecting this development.

After all, you were right about what it said.

There was one ant there when the light subsided.

It's Anne, of course.

But he looks different.

The body color was not gray, and now it's completely black. The body was even more massive nearly doubled, and the fangs of the maxilla increased to three to six, thickening each leg. The abdomen, which was further inflated, shaped up and elongated.

There are a number of cobs made in the abdomen, and the surface pulses with dokundokun is the same as before, but the magic caged there is not the ratio before.

But most surprisingly, it would be the arms and upper body. Yes, besides three to six legs, one to two arms grow. Does it feel like my torso was stuck to my lower body with another addition for the purpose I saw?

The shape of the upper body is also entirely that of the ants, but the insect-specific inorganicity is sharper, and one way or another feels the chillness of the uneven mannequin with the exoskeleton of the insect.

Ugh, creepy.

But you're a success.

It's a big success.

'Wow, what the hell am I...? What's this look like?

Ann herself seems perplexed by the changes in her body.

'Ann, you've evolved. I'm not a killer ant. You are now a species known as Imperial Ant.

"Imperial Ant............?

Imperial Ant.

It's an extinct species that was in the demon atlas.

He had a black body and three pairs of fangs, and his arms were growing, so it was definitely marked.

Moreover, as far as changes in magic are concerned, it is not just the Imperial Ant queen species that Ann has evolved. It is a rare species called the "High Queen's Species”.

I wasn't expecting this, but it would be a happy miscalculation.

There was information about Killer Ant and Imperial Ant in the demonic atlas earlier, so I was allowed to use it.

Imperial Ant.

This guy was the most suitable of all the demons I was looking for.

Well, why am I doing this is due to the knowledge I gained at the ruins the other day.

It's about the labyrinth (dungeon) and me (dragon).

All places where demons are made are called dungeons.

Well, that's good.

Nothing. I don't care what other people say about my home.

There is nothing wrong with that.

It's the demon that created the labyrinth, and the labyrinth, that unconsciously brings adventurers and other demons.

Apparently, the labyrinth emits subtle magic in itself, which brings in other creatures.

It is an annoying mechanism for me to be honest.

Some demons use this mechanism the opposite way to attract prey and prey on it the other way around.

You're close to the principle of eating worm flowers giving a sweet scent and attracting prey.

Most labyrinths are the latter.

You're rarer with guys like me.

Plus I have information about myself, or Diryu.

Unable to nurse information that was written in the description of the ground dragon.

extinct species. It is the finest material for humans, and every part becomes the finest material for spiritual medicines, magic tools and weapons. Surviving individuals no longer exist, and therefore the ground dragon is traded at a high price in what part.

As soon as the living dragon is discovered, it will definitely be crusade commands for material collection.

Apparently.

Heh, heh, heh, heh!

What the fuck is this bullshit info!

What, the moment it's discovered, what's an immediate crusade?!?

What's that!?

There's no way!?

I'm not a loose brain enough to be informed of this, either, by a boulder.

Well, I mean.

What I'm doing is like a kind of self-defense.

That's why I'm asking Anne to work so hard to stay quiet.

Well, it's called strengthening Anne for that.

The artificial demon stone, commonly known as the Evolutionary Demon Stone, was found in the ruins of Elibel.

It is a demonic stone with a tremendous effect: to force demons to evolve.

However, apparently, it wasn't finished, and even if you eat it, you have less than 10% chance of being able to evolve.

If you fail, you die.

Pretty risky.

I don't want to eat anything like that, no matter how strong I get.

If he dies, there will be no ex or child.

That's why Anne ate me.

but the scallops and the termites bite their feet.

Yeah, the bet is a success.

Good, good.

"Well, Anne, we're gonna be busy."

'Yes!'

Ann replied well.

Well, let's get you to work.

For my peace.
