Chapter 926
“What are you doing now?” She asked helplessly.
“I’m making a plan.”
I said, carefully watching the group. I was working out scenario after scenario, trying to come up with ways to save the girl and defeat them. I wanted to tear them all apart. I didn’t know feys personally, but they had enslaved all of humanity and butchered them like cattle. When I thought about the loss of my own slaves, it only drove me to anger.
“This seems like a hopeless battle.” Elaya spoke cautiously.
“You won’t stop me.” I responded. “I will save her.”
“You’ve changed.” She said. “You have a certain intensity about you.”
“I know.”
A small smile formed on her face. “I like it!”
“Don’t waste my time!”
“I would never! Rather, I want to help you do two things at once.”
“What?”
“What if the power to kill them and the power to go home could be achieved simultaneously?”
“Huh?”
“It’s something I only realized a short while ago. A new trick that can be done with your Dungeon Builder ability.”
“What do you mean?”
“Do you feel how thick the mana is in this cave? It’s really quite unbelievable.”
“Yes, this is what mana is supposed to feel like on this world. On our continent, the dungeons soak up the excess mana, so it’s much thinner.”
“That’s exactly my point! You are a dungeon builder. What if you put a dungeon…. Right here!”
I blinked. “What are you saying?”
“A dungeon forming here would be a black hole, dragging in all of that mana, and converting it to miasma… your miasma.”
My eyes widened. “Miasma… you mean power!”
“Yes! Your portal is granted by dungeon points, so it already acts like a level 100 portal. If even that isn’t enough to reach our continent, then no matter how many levels you increase, it might not be possible.”
I winced at those words. I hadn’t thought of it like that earlier. She had managed to instantly poke a hole into my plan. I was glad I had summoned her. Who was to say how long it would have taken without her advice?
“And as for them?”
“Dungeon Masters can pull on the power of their dungeon to fight. If you make this area your dungeon and become the Dungeon Master, you can pull all the miasma into you, and increase your fighting ability many times!”
“Elaya, you’re a genius!” I grabbed her and kissed her again.
“Ah!” She blushed at being kissed like that. “I totally came up with this all on my own… and it wasn’t that old witch that gave me the idea at all…”
“Um, okay… then, let’s get started.”
I changed up my jobs, putting myself as a Dungeon Builder. I included Mimic, Demonic Knight, and finally True Hero. Then, I sat down on the floor and began to start the process. This was something that would normally take hours, but I could directly manipulate Karma, and it was easy to suck in the miasma. The mana was so thick it was like being right next to the fairy spring, although while the fairy spring was liquid, and mana was released slowly, this was already freely in the air.
Also, while I was only dimly aware of it, Elaya was a powerful miasmic dungeon boss, and she was able to draw in and corrupt mana, turning into miasma. As we worked together, the dungeon started to condense at a ridiculous rate. I didn’t realize this, but as I worked, outside, the entire world had changed.
“Wh-what is going on?” Nerissa had been preparing to kill the human child, but suddenly the sky darkened.
The world started to get dark and lifeless, and a funnel started to form in the sky, coming down directly on the cave! Something horrible was happening!
“Reinforcements!” Nerissa screeched. “Get reinforcements!”
