Dungeon Maker Chapter 116

What was the most powerful one among the numerous races in the demon world?

There were lots of disagreements about it. However, there was one race that had been always mentioned among them.

It was the Dragons.

They were both the king of flying animals as well as the king of wild animals. They possessed a particularly strong body among the beings of the demon world, and they were born with powerful mana befitting their strong bodies.

Often called ancient dragons, who lived long enough, they could be said to be a disaster in themselves.

They were like a god and the representation of a strong man, who reached the ultimate level in both physical strength and mana.

And there was one who stood at the top among those dragons.

Although he didn't have the Seven Deadly Sins, he rose to the position of “king”.

In the history of the demon world, he was the only one who rose to the position of “king” without possessing the Seven Deadly Sins.

People called him the King of Violence.

Great Dragon Lord.

The King of Violence was like a mountain. Interestingly, this expression satisfied both its substance and metaphor.

The giant body of the King of Violence was several hundred meters long. Even though it curled up, roiling its tail, it could not hide its giant body.

The King of Violence never acted recklessly. Like the name “violence,” he was an extremely powerful being, but he did not use his power anytime anywhere.

He was like a volcano. Normally, he remained silent, but once he showed his anger, the whole world was shaken.

The King of Violence awakened from a deep sleep. However, he did not open his eyes or move his body. It was only his mind that awoke.

The King of Violence thought about his unsurpassed magic power, which could be called part of his body. He connected his soul with one of the seven fragments of that Demon King.

Godly Energy and the Seven Deadly Sins shared their history.

Since ancient times, when the Demon King disappeared, Godly Energy changed many hands, which never forgot them.

The traces of some of their unsurpassed magic power were left behind, though they were small.

And there was one that left the biggest traces in the annals of Godly Energy.

‘The King of Greed.'

In magic, its owner's soul and memory were supposed to exist.

The King of Greed's magic power was great enough to be recorded as unsurpassed abilities. Although fragmentary, there were some great moments of his magic power recorded.

Then, why did the King of Greed suddenly disappear?

Who was it that took his life?

The King of Violence tried to sleep quietly.

He peeked into the memories of Godly Energy.

Thanks to Salami flying almost half a day, though he took a break on and off, Yong-ho could reach the dungeon of the House of Mammon before dark.

The Himere Cats, which mainly monitored the ground, were flustered at Yong-ho's sudden appearance. So, he told them to watch over the airspace as well and stroked their heads one by one. Watching him, Catalina touched her own head slightly.

It was Treant, one of the veteran spirits of the House of Mammon, that greeted Yong-ho after the Himere Cats.

Now fully established himself as the main gatekeeper of the House of Mammon, Treant bowed to Yong-ho, along with the other two Treants that he had bought recently.

Repeating evolutionary changes, they had a much more flexible and tougher body than the typical Treant. However, they were essentially ‘trees', so they could easily perform motions that ordinary Treants could not.

After the Himere Cats and Treant, Eligos came out to greet Yong-ho along with Baduk and Yuria.

“Congratulations on your victory, Master.”

Eligos spoke with glaring eyes. Eligos had been serving as the butler since the time when the House of Mammon was on the verge of collapse. It was natural that Eligos felt so proud of Yong-ho because he made the House of Mammon stand tall again and took over another dungeon.

Baduk, who was next to Eligos, expressed happiness more honestly, while Yuria slightly lifted her sleeves to show due respect to Yong-ho, saying lispingly, “Well… Congratulations!”

Yong-ho laughed loudly like Skull and stroked Yuria's hair. Then he headed for the Demon King's room with Catalina, who was touching her hair again this time, and Eligos, who started to wipe his tears with a handkerchief.

[Master, take a good rest.]

[It must have been difficult for Salami to fly all day long, but you know our Master also had a hard time hanging on Salami for the whole day, right?]

Lucia spoke in a quiet way.

Feeling like he sat on the throne for a long time, Yong-ho nodded at her. As Lucia said, he was exhausted, so he was thinking of taking a break today, but he had some more work to do.

Yong-ho grinned at Eligos after looking at him with the power of evolution.

“It's what I have expected.”

The fact that Ophelia's evolution EXP maxed out meant that Eligos did the same thing, for the two always practiced together.

“Can I still evolve?”

When Yong-ho's green eyes glared, Eligos asked him with an expectant voice.

It was natural that Eligos showed such a reaction.

Eligos came from the demon world. Moreover, he was a member of the Red Daemon called the “battle race”. He had no reason to refuse to become stronger through evolution.

Instead of answering right away, Yong-ho rested his chin on his right hand.

Then he looked at Eligos with his eyes slightly open.

He did so for a few seconds when Eligos felt nervous then said, “Ophelia asked me to evolve the magic power of ‘Brother Eli.'”

Eligos cleared his throat when Yong-ho emphasized ‘Brother Eli.'

Obviously, he was embarrassed.

Feeling pleasant but angry at the same time, Yong-ho asked, “Do you have any nickname for her?”

“Uh, no. I just call her Ophelia. Her name itself is pretty… Ooops!”

At that moment, Yong-ho laughed wickedly like the Demon King, and Eligos was flustered, muttering something like he was brainwashed. Originally, Eligos was a Red Demon whose skin was red, but today, it looked much redder.

Fortunately for Eligos, Yong-ho knew when to refrain himself. In fact, if he dug more about Eligo's relationship with Ophelia, Yong-ho felt he would be hurt, so he stopped. Anyway, he stopped playing games with Eligos and stood up.

“Let me evolve you with a specialization of magic power. So, close your eyes.”

Since Yong-ho changed the topic, Eligos closed his eyes, feeling relieved.

Yong-ho activated the power of evolution. He brought out Eligos's possibilities, which changed the latter in no time. Eligos's magic power became strong.

Besides, it was accompanied by his physical change this time. A third horn came out from his forehead.

Pricking her ears and hearing their conversation with her eyes open, Catalina once again opened her eyes wider.

The difference between having two horns and three horns was like night and day.

‘Moreover…'

A new box of light appeared above Eligos's head.

[Red Demon-Tyrant]

Like Ophelia, the box was one, not two. But the name itself was really strong.

‘Tyrant?'

Following the beast first, it was a tyrant this time. Yong-ho instinctively touched the box of light and looked at Eligos, who just went through an evolution.

He was the same as Ophelia. In addition to his usual form, he had a separate ‘combat form'.

Eligos seemed to understand why he was named ‘tyrant.' Even now, he had a well-developed upper body with an inverted triangle, but his combat shape was more than that. In particular, his shoulders and arms were developed, and his two fists full of hair looked like a wicked blunt weapon by itself.

Perhaps, the combination of a bear and a gorilla would look like Eligos.

In any case, it was clear that Eligos gave out the aura of a wild beast. The black patterns among the hair growing all over his body also stood out.

‘He looks like a super beast,' Yong-ho thought.

He withdrew his hands and deactivated the power of evolution.

‘By the way…'

Suddenly, something strange came to Yong-ho's mind.

Red Demon Tyrant.

Obviously, the name befitted Eligos, who went through an evolution.

But Eligos felt uncomfortable about it

‘Why?'

Not only Eligos but also Catalina and Ophelia felt the same way.

A new name after advancement.

They understood the new names of Goblin Rangers and Skull after evolution.

Hob Goblin was the superior species of a goblin. In the case of Skull, he was an artificially born undead, so it was natural that there were higher species such as Skeleton Soldier and Warrior.

But what about Red Demon or Dark Elf? Well, Catalina had the mixed blood of Dark Elf and Succubus. But it was not an exaggeration to say that she was walking on her own path now.

Although her physical abilities were strong enough to be confused as a human being, she was a “human” after all. On the contrary, the owner of the body, which was extremely weakened, was also a “human”.

It was strange that there were detailed sub-items such as Red Demon Beast and Strider.

It wasn't just because of Eligos but also because their sense of incompatibility was close to exploding beyond the critical point.

‘Well, let me ask.'

Yong-ho cleared his complicated thoughts by lightly shaking his head.

After stopping Lucia's attempt to nag in the bud, Yong-ho took a good break.

“Red Demon Tyrant? What the heck is that?”
