It was the first time I had seen such an alert.

– Successfully absorbed the offered Holy Knight. –

– Absorbed the ability ‘Goddess’s Healing’ of the Holy Knight. –

– Absorbed some of the divine power possessed by the Holy Knight. –

– Successfully absorbed the offered Holy Knight. –The initial instance of this chapter being available happened at N0v3l.Bin.

– Absorbed some of the divine power possessed by the Holy Knight. –

While I had seen alerts about absorbing offerings before, this was the first time it specified what was gained from the offering.

“I should have known this earlier.”

If I had, I could have been more aware.

Nevertheless, the results were satisfactory. I absorbed two Holy Knights, gaining one skill and their divine powers.

“But why did this come out here?”

The skill I acquired was ‘Goddess’s Healing’, an advanced skill only a few priests could use, allowing the healing of others.

Essentially, it was a position similar to a healer among hunters, or even a higher-level skill than a hunter heal.

However, how did a Holy Knight end up with such a skill? Did they not know their own abilities, leading them to mismanage their tech tree?

I briefly pondered but soon shook my head.

“It’s not my concern.”

In any case, having more skills was better. In that sense, absorbing divine powers was beneficial.

“In that sense, absorbing divine powers is good.”

While the absorbed divine power was minimal, the new Divine power category appeared in the status window, marked as F-rank.

The Goddess’s Healing skill’s rank also corresponded to the rank of the absorbed divine power. In other words, both were F-rank.

In different words, the Goddess’s Healing skill was a skill that could grow. By increasing the divine power rank, the skill would also improve.

The method of improvement was the same, sacrificing offerings. At the moment, it was the most advantageous condition for me.

Continuing to absorb divine power through offerings would eventually increase the amount of divine power I possessed, leading to an increase in the rank of the Goddess’s Healing skill.

“I’m already looking forward to it.”

I wondered if there were more Holy Knights that could be offered, so I opened the game. However, I soon lowered my head.

I had spent six hours absorbing the Holy Knights. I realized I had fallen into a state of drowsiness during the absorption of the offering’s abilities.

In other words, a state of complete incapacitation where I couldn’t move.

So, even if there were potential targets for offerings, I didn’t feel an immediate urge to demand sacrifices. Instead, it seemed like a situation where I needed to be informed to offer sacrifices whenever I wanted.

“Anyway, it all comes down to offerings.”

My earlier speculations turned into firm convictions. Every status and attribute I obtained so far was a result of offerings. A system where I became stronger by sacrificing someone.

However, I didn’t feel any guilt or remorse about the offerings. The game provided answers. The small entity at the center of the dungeon, the Dungeon Core, was the reason.

Clicking on it revealed the description.

[Dungeon Core]

The entity I had seen numerous times in the game’s gacha was now right in front of me.

– Clatter –

– Clatter –

The Skeleton Soldier approached me, making a creaking sound. I raised my guard for a moment, but the next action of the Skeleton Soldier was unexpected.

– Thud. –

The Skeleton Soldier suddenly bowed its waist and greeted me. Simultaneously, it opened its mouth and seemed to say something.

“Huh...”

This was quite perplexing.

In that moment, I obtained a Skeleton Soldier in addition to skills and divine power, excluding the original ones.

The Phoenix Guild was currently in a gloomy state. An emergency meeting was taking place, and it was so crucial that both the guild leader and vice-leader attended.

All because of Jung Woo-jin.

He had been found in a pitiful state after entering the Incubus Dungeon. It seemed like the dungeon owner had capriciously acted.

Jung Woo-jin could come out of the dungeon. Fortunately, he still had his life, but the only thought on the minds of those who saw him was one thing.

“I might be better off dead.”

Jung Woo-jin’s condition was that dire, and even the hunters who accompanied him looked horrendous.

“What the hell happened inside the dungeon...”

“No, weren’t they all supposed to enter the Incubus Dungeon?”

“An Incubus enjoying a sodomy. This really breaks conventional thinking.”

Hunters from the Phoenix Guild who attended the meeting expressed their thoughts.

In fact, no one anticipated failure in this subjugation. Jung Woo-jin was an A-rank hunter, and all the hunters entering the Incubus Dungeon were men.

However, not only did they fail, but they returned in a pitiful state, so who wouldn’t be surprised?

“Everyone, quiet.”

Jung Taek-su, the leader of the Phoenix Guild, opened his mouth. At his words, the noisy meeting room fell silent in an instant.

– SIlence. –

Everyone closed their mouths, confirming that Jung Taek-su continued speaking.

“Vice-leader, brief them.”

Vice-leader Jung Tae-young was the leader’s eldest son. However, the fact that he was addressed by his position rather than his name indicated his emphasis on separating public and private matters.

Jung Taek-su appeared indifferent, even though it was his son, Jung Woo-jin, who suffered. Because of this, he seemed cold-hearted to others.

Jung Tae-young, aware of this, felt no resentment. He began briefing others on the information he had organized.

“The dungeon Jung Woo-jin and 21 others entered was a B-rank Incubus Dungeon. We confirmed through multiple reconnaissance missions beforehand that only Incubus existed. All members were male hunters.”

However, they suffered a devastating defeat. The only fortunate aspect was that they preserved their lives. Of course, having their vitality drained by an Incubus didn’t make them feel alive even if they survived.

“...Through interrogating the survivors, we confirmed the existence of a Succubus in the dungeon. Simultaneously, we received responses suggesting that she might be the dungeon master.”

As Jung Tae-young finished speaking, everyone was shaken.

“Isn’t this presence comparable to a Succubus Queen? To dominate Incubus alone...”

“Since the first subjugation failed, we need to respond thoroughly.”

How terrifying a place it must be. One Succubus dominating the Incubus within the dungeon.

“If monster waves occur in that dungeon...”

Someone spoke with a trembling voice.

Although left unsaid, anyone could easily infer its meaning. The worst-case scenario, a situation no one wanted to imagine, would unfold.

Jung Taek-su, the guild leader, spoke after Jung Tae-young’s briefing.

“As of now, the dungeon’s rank is upgraded from B to A. We will thoroughly prepare for the Succubus part and embark on the subjugation again. There will be no room for failure this time, so be thorough.”

Since even the guild leader showed interest, the dungeon would undoubtedly be subjugated. However, Jung Taek-su couldn’t shake off the uneasy feeling.

‘A Succubus ruling an Incubus Dungeon...’

It must be a formidable existence.

Jung Taek-su thought so.

In that dungeon, a monster lived.

An unknown monster.
