Episode 46

"So you're saying that this glowing ball is equivalent to 10 nuclear warhead?..".

[Yep..but, since this is Fantasma and that Anchor Core was a magical artifact…it's doesn't gave out radiations..you could try use it as a power reserve for you electricity..I can help you research how to do it..]. (T.A.S)

It's kinda weird to hear and see that the round glowing crystal ball that in my hand right now was as strong 10 nuclear warhead. After defeating the Warden, the only thing that left inside the crater was, this Basketball big Anchor Core @ Dungeon core,7 skill shards, the glowing skull of the Warden(That apparently is the Seal for Paul Shackles), 1 High Grade Dimensional Storage (The inside was filled with Dragons Bones and 1 broken branch with 1 leaf at the end) and a piece armour that the warden previously wear. Actually there's nothing remains of the warden inside the crater, but for some reason these loots were inside the crater, seriously I can't really comprehend the logic behind how this happened, I guess that's the reality of Fantasma Magical logics.

"Elijah this is for you..It's [Mind Terror]..a S rank skill..".

I handed over one of the skill shards dropped from the Warden. The other 6 was, [Physical Limiter], [Lightning Fast], [Stun Gaze], [Cleaving Attack], [Heart Grasp] and [Torturer Chains ].

"Ah Thank you sir…but why did you give me this?..". (Elijah)

"So you can scare people of even more?…Hahaha, it's a joke…hehehe….Sorry..".

Elijah eyes turned cold as she heard me, I immediately gave out a dry laugh. Which seems to pissed her off even more, As I apologize she grab the shard and kicked my shin with her high heel boots.

"Is there anything good sir?..". (Mina)

Seeing Elijah leave, Mina come closer.

"well nothing much..just skill shards and this piece of Armour..Hey, Bar come here!..could you look at this?".

I hand over the  Rusted iron armour to Bar for him to inspect. I knew this armour has a magical enchantment place on it, since Bar was the expert on this, he should have a look at it.

"Wow, Dwarven armour sure is amazing..though it almost totaled, the most important piece was still here….Sir, I believe this is a rare armour enchantment..it's High rank [Fire Resistant]..". (Bar)

With a dramatic look, Bar look at me as he shows me the intricate pentagram with dwarven scribbles surrounding it. It's quite complex and kinda artistic.

"Can you replicate the enchantment?..probably put it on our armour?..".

Medieval aren't really practical per say, it can't even compare to modern armour that Aeternum were using now, but if we can add enchantment It would be become even more outstanding.

"Replicating…It can be done, but I need to analyze and research it first, as I need to understand the enchantments pentagram first….".(Bar)

[Analyze the Enchantment?..that's easy, I can do it in under an hour…just take a picture and scan the enchantment pentagram I can handle it for you sir..].(T.A.S)

That's right I forgot that I got an amazing A.I on my side, with T.A.S on my side this kind of stuff weren't a big deal at all. Looks like I have another method to garner more gold coins, i should try figure out how to enchant items easily, probably find a way to automate the whole productions.

"you should show me how to enchant item later…you can hold this armour for now, we can continue this later in Aeternum…..Everyone we're leaving now..".

"Pardon me your Lordship…is the Lord finally defeated?….just like that?..". (Sasu)

Nervous but still steel his courage to ask me.

"Yes, just like this…See, this round thing?…this is the Dungeon Anchor/Core…with the Lord gone and this Anchor in my hand, you can safely assume that the dungeon is done for…I believe that you won't questions what you just saw right?….".

"O..of course not…..T…thank you, your Lordship…".(Sasu)

My confirm answer, made the Beavers broke down in tears, though it's kinda heartbreaking seeing 4 beavers break down crying. On the other hand I can't help but thinking they were quite cute.

"Anyway…let's head back to the settlement…..I supposed it's time for you guys to taste the sunshine….Team!!..we're done here, let's go!!…".

After waiting for about 10 minutes, the Beavers finally done with their mourning. We left the dead end room and head straight for the Beavers settlement.

In my opinion, traversing inside a dungeon in real life wasn't really like what in the Manga or novels states, in fact it's really easy, once you clear out the dungeon you can walk around without having to worry about being attack. But still I guess the part that makes it all easy is because this dungeon doesn't have any trap also we coming in guns blazing.

[Simply put…you got a big upper hand..thanks to your technological advantage, if we send around 100 Aeternum soldier fully armed…we can easily complete exploring 1 or 2 dungeons a day.]. (T.A.S)

I guess I should make a dungeonering branch in my military department later on. For now I guess, I could asked Mina to organize a missions for dungeon exploring, this should makes my soldier gather more live experiences, besides if I can't have more soldier, at least I need to have highly professional soldier to compensate for it. It's also seems that, monster tide will be happening in a year, I don't want Aeternum to fall because I don't have enough soldiers when I got plenty of weapons in my disposal.

As there's no problem what so ever on our way back, we arrive at the 13th floor Settlements in just 2 hours, of course it could be faster but we have to stop a few times to collect the zombie bloods bags and of course killed the Zombie that already became a skin bags. The beaver and the moles were quite shocked, I guess it's their first time seeing the group that left comes back the same amount as they left. Sasu left us as he wanted to notified the Matriarch first, after a few minutes Matriarch Kasuma and Elder Mikhail comes out of the tent rushes towards me.

"Is..it..true?..". (Matriarch Kasuma)

Shivering and shaken, Matriarch Kasuma stood before me.

"It is…you guys no longer have to stay in this dungeon..like I said, with me on the case…you don't have to worry…so pack up, let's leave this dump…".

Wails of cries echoes as the beavers and the moles learn the truth that they were finally free. Even Matriarch Kasuma were falls to her knees crying while constantly thanking me. Honestly it felt great helping unfortunate people like them, seeing their happiness lasted for a few hours I intend not to interrupt, but Elijah remind me that we have to move now, as right now is the best time to move although the Lord and the Core already being contained, celebrating in a Dungeon wasn't really a good Idea as we don't know when will the dungeon collapsed, also I have to deal with Paul as fast as I can.
