< Gerlingdor Requests becoming the Dungeon Master. >

 

Refuse that shit! what the fuck is the Goblin thinking!

 

Receiving the refusal was a deep blow to the Goblin's pride. He started fuming with anger as he strode towards me. I started panicking a little, but why the hell was I to be scared of a fucking little goblin? I didn't care whether he was a named monster, I was still the dungeon-core, I had control over him.

 

Order goblin to stop.

 

< Task Failed, Subject no longer under dungeon control >

 

What the heck? Gloria, what's going on?

 

<< When monsters rebel against the dungeon they become essentially outsiders, so you should avoid offending any of them if don't have the might  to contain them afterwards. >>

 

And now you tell me that? What the fuck, are you stupid? You should've told me that earlier.

 

<< Directive Updated, potential threats will be notified whenever seemed fit >>

 

Why the heck was that not a default directive? WTF. Also, what should I do?

 

<< Directive Defaults are based on satisfaction with the system from its users, it’s reported that too much information hinders their progress.>>

<< About the other question you can either defeat mutinous monster yourself by either killing or incapacitating it or you can use EP to spawn another monster to fight it, keep in mind if the monster in question is intelligent and realizes your position is lower and has affinity towards the mutineer it may join it on the mutiny. >>

 

Why the fuck did I sign up for this... Oh, yeah, I didn't, fuck me.

Give me the Goblin A's Status Page.

He's much weaker than I thought, should I fight him?

 

<< There is no report of a Dungeon Core fighting personally throughout history. >>

 

Yeah, yeah, I guessed that, shut up for now ok? I'll talk to you when I need ya.

 

<< System going on Stand-by mode. >>

 

Now, where was I, right, trying not to die. How the fuck am I gonna kill this guy. I could punch me, or maybe...

Open Dungeon Inventory.

 

<   Dungeon Inventory    >

< There is no warehouse  >

< In this dungeon. Build >

< one before attempting  >

< to use Inventory.      >

 

Oh, crap. Gotta do it barehanded then...

As I walked forward the goblin seemed even more confused, I think he had thought I would just concede instantly.

When he reached me, my first move was to punch him in the face. God that felt awful. His body was covered in some sort of slimy goo... Fucking disgusting. Despite having fallen to the ground the goblin hadn't given up, he raised from the ground plunging forward, and managed  to hit me, piercing my flank with its dagger.

 

Oh, shit, what do I do now?  I'm bleeding!

Wait... I'm not... What? Oh, right, this ain't my body.

 

The goblin was completely dumbstruck when I ignored the dagger piercing me from the side and delivered a heavy blow to its face with my elbow. It screeched in pain as it stumbled backwards, holding its broken nose. Its next attack though was filled with hate, I barely could even react to it. The dagger slid right through my throat, returning my vision back to the floaty one... I still had quite a lot of mana left, since I hadn't used my body at all it barely consumed any of it before.

 

< Gerlingdor Requests becoming the Dungeon Master. >

 

Refuse it again, I'm killing this bastard right now!

 

The goblin became even more confused, I think he thought I was the Dungeon Master, and having "killed" me would clear his path to take control over the dungeon. Little did he know, he didn't even hurt me... That didn't mean I didn't feel the pain though. Oof, that was awful, but still felt artificial, like I knew that despite feeling the pain it wasn't hurting me at all. I materialized my body again, this time behind him, but I thought of something.

 

Open Dungeon Monster Inventory: Goblin A.

 

<   Monster Inventory    >

<                        >

< . Tattered rags        >

< . Crude Dagger         >

 

Aha! Perfect, I still have access to his inventory.

Retrieve Crude Dagger.

 

As his dagger materialized in my hand, the goblin started to despair, how had his dagger just vanished from his hand?

He looked straight at the core in the middle of the room and I feared for my own safety for the first time, He had realized the core was alive.

Thankfully though it had not yet noticed me just a few steps behind him.

 

I quickly jumped ahead, spiking the dagger through his skull as soon as he turned around to look at where the noise had come from.

As he stared straight at me, dagger handle deep into his temple. After less than a second his body limped and fell to the ground in front of me. As that happened my head was filled with announcements from the system.

 

< You landed a Critical Hit >

< You defeated an Enemy >

< You defeated a Mutinous Monster >

< LEVEL UP! >

< You learned a Skill. Dagger Technique I >

< LEVEL UP! >

< The Skill Body Manifestation has evolved into the Unique Skill Materialization. >

 

 NICE! Wait, why is everything doubled...

Oh, I got EP, how though?

 

<<EP Earnings Report: 10EP from killing mutinous Named Goblin, 3EP from overcoming a 1 Monster Mutiny, 1 EP For having an Enemy in the dungeon for 1 Hour. >>

 

Oh, the guy I killed... Wait What? What Enemy?

 

<< Alarm sounded minutes ago. Check Dungeon Map for more information >>

 

Oh, that alarm... CRAP! If he gets here, I'm screwed... let’s try once more!

Select Dungeon Master.

Err... What the fuck? Why have I become an option?

 

<< Unique Skill Materialization allows for an Ethereal entity to manifest its body as a Living Entity. Effectively making you become two people. >>

 

Oh, Nice. That solves a lot of things, but how the fuck did that happen?"

 

<< Unique Skills have a 1/10^10 chance of evolving from maxed out normal skills during a Level-Up. God's blessings increase chance of compatible Unique skills appearing. Materialization belongs to the Conception subcategory, ruled by the gods of Chastity, Sex, Pregnancy and other related fields.>>

 

Hm... I really need to thank Virgie later... She saved my ass, it seems.

 

Where's the enemy? Open Map

 

A map appeared in front of me. It looked like a 3D radar, but the dungeon was incredibly simple, Just one room and a long, natural, cave as an entrance. The intruder seemed to be still, right after a turn in the very beginning of the dungeon. She didn't seem to have noticed she was in a dungeon yet.
