<<Well, improving my golems and reading books are two ways of improving myself and the dungeon.>>

<<But before that, I need to do something about that large amount of miasma I've had obtained after destroying the beast dungeon.>>

<<And I've also had a large amount of miasma from manifesting my army of monsters.>>

<<Pretty much, I have a lot of miasma just sitting around and it would be a good idea to use it all up.>>

<<Specifically to boost my dungeon and rank up my dungeon core.>>

<<By the way, how exactly ranking up dungeon cores works?>>

<<Well, there is only one way really.>>

<<Miasma.>>

<<Miasma can be used for many things, expanding dungeon, creating monsters, conducing dungeon experiments, produce items and such.>>

<<And it also the only way of making the dungeon stronger.>>

<<Feeding dungeon core miasma nonstop will cause it to undergone a evolution, causing it to gain a rank.>>

<<However, the process is not instant transformation, it takes time and there is a limit of how much dungeon can process miasma at once for itself.>>

<<But from what I observed, I should keep using as much miasma as possible, keeping up the flow of miasma to the upper limit, since more miasma is given to the dungeon, the faster it will rank up.>>

<<Ranking up the core causes it to mutate, evolve and increase all of its basic abilities, such as range of how much it can effect and expand, the monster spawning rate, the miasma production rate from the dungeon core and then finally, my own active range.>>

<<Currently my dungeons has rank 7.>>

<<Whenever the dungeon grows a rank, it will end up requiring more miasma to rank up, but the effects will be slightly better.>>

<<However, Ariava told me that the bigger dungeon is, it does not mean that the danger rank they could be given would reflect their own dungeon rank. For example she said that the a small dungeon could be filled with just extremely powerful monsters.>>

<<She told me to not rush ranking up the dungeon recklessly and I could already tell from my own experience that sometimes I don't have resources to do it.>>

<<Still, right now I can do it and I will rank up my dungeon as much as possible.>>

<<Anyway, I've focus on expanding my dungeon by digging and taking control underground.>>

<<Ariava said that I can possible obtain some materials or find some special resources underground.>>

<<Iron, gems or some special plants. I could obtain different things while expanding…. And those things I could possibly research and have the dungeon recreate.>>

<<And not only the underground, but also outside world, the world outside the cave.>>

<<But "outside" dungeon has a problem, I cannot exactly create monsters there. I'm only able to create monsters in enclosed spaces, like area surrounded completely by my dungeon territory, authority and stuff, I need to have a 100% control over the territory.>>

<<Not only that, but the monster creation range is also influenced by my core power, meaning that I cannot just create a long single path and then just spawn monsters on the other side of it.>>

<<There is also the fact that the monster creation can be easily disrupted by the other beings presence, meaning that I cannot create monsters right on top of the invaders, I need to make monsters away from the invaders or the creation process will be disrobed.>>

<<So, why I took control of the outside?>>

<<The answer is simple.>>

<<Vision.>>

<<I could see!>>

<<I could see the outside world!>>

<<Forest! Animals! Plants!>>

<<This was the first time ever I saw the outside world!>>

<<Honestly…. I couldn't….. I couldn't believe it.>>

<<This was….. Wow….>>

<<I mean, Ariava did brough me sometimes some random stuff from outside world, like flowers and everything…. But seeing the nature? It is…. Interesting>>

<<….>>

<<Em… Besides being interesting, this also have a obvious means of me gaining access to the outside world, specifically I can see things what is going on. And by going on I mean I can now tell if somebody is going to attack me or enter the dungeon.>>

<<Ariava said that often adventurers or merchants set up some sort of bases right outside the dungeons or something called "checkpoints".>>

<<She said that a means of seeing outside world will be crucial and I cannot ignore this, so I should try expanding my vision of the outside world more and more.>>

<<Anyway, while the dungeon is currently undergoing the evolution, I've also needed to do something about my golems, specifically the materials.>>

<<Wood golems are useful and I can just give them blades made out of iron to make them deadly.>>

<<But obviously there are a lot of problems with my current golems, especially the core for the standard golems, they are too weak for their bulky bodies.>>

<<I needed to change a lot of things and I've also needed to change a lot of different parts of the golems, especially the crossbow golem which I could probably end up doing a complete redesign.>>

<<There are also some beasts monsters I can make and experiment on.>>

<<And I also have a lot of books to read.>>

<<Even though I'm not attacked or anything right now, I'm pretty much busy each day…. But honestly? I enjoy it.>>

<<Making new golems, improving them, making different parts and seeing how it goes, observing the beasts monsters, reading books, remodeling the dungeon, improving my workshop, crafting new weapons and all other things.>>

<<I've enjoyed everything.>>

<<I was having fun and wasn't getting bored anytime soon since there was a lot of things to do.>>

<<And so the days passed.>>

<<Sometimes some days were more successful, with me making some new discoveries and learning something new…. While some others days were…. Well, way less successful, with one day just being a nonstop failure for the entire 24 hours.>>

<<But overall I was doing the same thing.>>

<<Experiments, readings books, expanding dungeons, improving my golems design and so on.>>

<<But I was really not doing exactly same thing each day.>>

<<Different book, different experiment, different discovery, different changes to the golems.>>

<<I was doing the same thing, but at the same time not.>>

<<Not only that, but with each passing day, there were changes in dungeon, some smaller while some much more noticeable.>>

<<Hell! My own body, the one that I'm using? It was meant for the work alone, but I still upgraded it over and over, making my time crafting much more easier.>>

<<I've also thought about maybe adding the third pair of arms, but probably I will add it when I will have to do the whole remodeling of my body, instead of just upgrading and changing parts.>>

<<In short, every day was a progress and there was way too much to explain every single detail, since it could had taken days.>>

<<There was just that much going on…. And like that, two months had passed.>>

<<After two whole months, my whole dungeon was completely different.>>

<<The size, inside, layout and even monsters were completely different.>>

<<My currently.>>

<<I've also started 1 month ago focus bit more on magic, trying to improve it and using the knowledge from my magic practice to improve the golems.>>

<<Honestly? Things were going perfect!>>

<<Maybe I was worrying too much after Ariava left?>>

<<….>>

<<Although…. I still miss her...>>

<<…>

<<Still…. I'm alive and I'm much stronger compare to before.>>

<<Not only that, it seems that the situation outside is still chaotic and the war has not ended!>>

<<That means I still have time to expand and grow my dungeon.>>

<<…>>

<<That is what I thought.>>

<<One day, when I was doing my experiments…. I've noticed something.>>

<<Somebody near my dungeon.>>

<<Humans.>>
