Since all the spirits in the House of Mammon gathered, the large dormitory seemed small.
The spirits either had beer or a cup of alcohol that was available in the dungeon world. Since the salamander didnât have hands, a bowl filled with beer was placed next to their head and the Treant poured the beer on the roots using their vine.
Eligor brought out a large amount of goods.
There was so much that if the goods that Yong-Ho ordered didnât arrive tomorrow, then they would have to starve for the next couple of days.
There was meat that they obtained from the hunt and pancakes were made with the milk, egg and flour that was purchased from the dungeon shop and a variety of vegetable stir fry.
The dishes werenât that amazing, but there was a large amount.
The only downside was that compared to the food, there wasnât enough beer. Itâs because there wasnât a reason to drink it. But Eligor did purchase a case of it for Yong-Ho just in case and if it wasnât for that, everyone would be drinking water.
The Orcs were a more exciting race than Yong-Ho had originally thought.
No, there might a difference in thought, but the Orcs who were new to the House of Mammon clearly displayed their likes and dislikes.
Foras was the one that attacked the House of Mammon first.
And Foras and his spirits were trying to kill Yong-Ho and his spirits.
Rikum and the other Orcs put their lives on the line to kill their opponent and that thought didnât change.
Dungeon fight â For owners that only had one dungeon, they had no choice but to be aggressive about it.
It wasnât an exaggeration to say that they were putting everything on the line.
In that fight, Foras lost and Yong-Ho won.
That was enough. There wasnât a need to add the words revenge or grudge to a fight that was already over.
Even though he only drank one cup, the alcohol helped create the atmosphere.
The Orcs were able to realize that they survived.
The Goblins were dancing amongst themselves and Kobold was barking while wagging their tail.
The Princess Ant just sat there and watched everyone. He wasnât sure if it was because the food was good or because she enjoyed the atmosphere, but a small smile appeared on her face.
At any rate, out of the spirits in the House of Mammon, the ones that âdiedâ were the egoless Clay Golem and Rock Golem.
If there was a different spirit that died, then it wouldâve been difficult for him to accept the Orcs so easily.
Yong-Ho happily drank the beer. Itâs a given that heâs never tried beer in the demon world, but he never tried foreign beers either. To him, alcohol was alcohol. The beer in the demon world mustâve been stronger because he could feel himself getting a bit tipsy.
âThatâs surprising.â
âSir?â
When Yong-Ho spoke, Catalina, who was sitting next to him and eating a piece of meat, tilted her head. Instead of answering her, he thought about it in his head.
âI thought she wouldnât be able to drink, but she can hold her alcohol.â
Even though she drank a large cup, she was fine. He thought she would show her clumsy side again because of the alcohol.
Yong-Ho felt a bit disappointed and covered his face by raising his glass. Catalina tilted her head several times, but gave up and went back to eating her food.
And another person was close to Yong-Ho.
âSkullllll.â
Since they were a skeleton, they couldnât drink the beer. Instead of rolling on the ground, they poured the beer on Treantâs root. They mustâve drank twice as much as others because they moved their body happily.
Two hours later.
When the party was over, Yong-Ho let the Goblin Rangers and the Orcs clean up and dragged the key figures of the dungeon to the throne room.
Eligor, the butler.
Catalina, the guard.
Skull, House of Mammonâs ace.
Rikum, the leader of the Orcs that recently joined.
Even though he didnât drink a lot, he really enjoyed the atmosphere so his body felt relaxed.
But before the day ended, there were topics he had to discuss.
Even though he took care of many things throughout the day, there were still many things that he had to take care of as soon as possible.
âA delivery man from the dungeon shop will come by tomorrow morning. Thatâs why I would like to talk about the dungeonâs rearrangement before they come.â
Catalina heard the explanation with Yong-Ho and even though they asked Skull to come, they wouldnât be able to express their thoughts.
Since Eligor and Rikum were key figures within the dungeon, they already knew what the rearrangement was.
Through the recent dungeon defense, Yong-Ho realized just how important the layout of the dungeon was when it came to defending.
The dungeon itself was the stage for the dungeon combat.
The one defending the dungeon had to create a âbattlefieldâ that was beneficial to them.
The layout of the land played a big role during combat and since he could rearrange it however he wanted, he couldnât express just how important it was.
If he didnât think about the space and just placed one room after another, they could use Wall Break.
But if they created a straight pathway, it would weaken the dungeonâs defense.
And if he focused just on the rooms and rearranged it that way, then it would be uncomfortable for everyone to live in.
Yong-Ho created a large window of light. After excluding the entrance room, he created a dungeon map that had nothing in it.
Yong-Ho and the spirits agreed that the throne room and the Heart of the Dungeon needed to be located more towards the back.
The distance of the armory and the gold mine was greater than the distance between the throne room and the entrance room. By controlling the distance alone, it can increase the defense a lot.
He decided to fill in most of it with the inactivated rooms thatâve been checked. It was nice to be able to use the empty spaces when needed, but there was a high chance that the enemy may use Wall Break on the walls of the empty space.
âOut of the inactivated rooms thatâre within my control that Iâve âchecked,â there arenât any rooms that contains the inheritance of the previous owners.â
The House of Mammon still had a lot of secrets.
The area that was under the Spirit of the Dungeonâs control was maybe 20% to 30% of the entire first floor.
For the rooms that were outside of that area, it was impossible for them to detect whether it was an inactive room, a dead end or a room that contained the previous ownersâ inheritance.
During the rearrangement, the gold mine became the reference point because it couldnât be moved.
Yong-Ho moved the throne room and the Heart of the Dungeon to the innermost part, which was close to the gold mine.
The passageway from the throne room to the entrance room was somewhat windy. After obtaining the space to place the dormitory, the warehouse and other facilities the road around the throne became pretty simple.
âThis should cover the basicsâŚAre the new dungeon facilities next?â
Below are the list of facilities that are currently in the dungeon.
Gold mine, armory, dormitory, warehouse, prison and torture chamber.
By waving his finger, he listed the facilities that he could add more of on the window of light.
A source of water supply and a waterway, dungeon prison, dungeon spirit dormitory, basic dungeon training ground and basic dungeon workshop.
He really wanted to add all of them at once, but he was limited on mana and material, so he had to choose.
The facility that the spirits voted on, well, other than Skull since they only said their name, was the water supply and the waterway.
The waterway was connected to the dungeon layout, so installing the waterway before the other facilities was the right thing to do.
âThereâs a limit to where the water supply can be placed.â
âIt can become the center of the dungeon life, so I recommend it placing it in the inner part of the dungeon.â
There were only three areas within their control where they could place the water source. Yong-Ho picked the area that was closest to the throne room.
After marking the water source on the dungeon map and connecting a waterway, an image of water flowing was added.
Even though it wasnât actually installed and he was just seeing it on the map, it made him feel proud for some reason.
Yong-Ho slightly glanced over at Eligor. Itâs because Eligor had to go outside of the dungeon to get the water, so Yong-Ho was sure that with this installation, he would feel very pleased.
But it was different from what he expected.
Eligor couldnât stay still as he looked at the map. It seemed like he was internally conflicted.
âThe pr-prisonâŚbut the waterwayâŚâ
He was mumbling to himself, but since everyone was quiet, he heard him loud and clear.
Yong-Ho chuckled and placed the next facility that the spirits recommended.
Dungeon spirit dormitory.
The number of spirits were increasing and in order to develop the dungeon, he was going to need a lot more spirits.
Since he had to provide a separate living space based on their role and race, there wasnât enough space in the current dormitory.
After adding the waterway and the dormitory, he barely had any mana and material left.
Eligor started calculating to see if they could install a prison and Catalina and Rikum recommended on saving it. And like always, Skull excitedly said their name.
But Yong-Ho didnât follow their suggestions. There was something he already had in mind.
âBasicâŚdungeon workshop?â
Catalina blinked after seeing a new facility being installed. Eligor and Rikum also had a surprised expression.
Yong-Ho enjoyed their expressions and spoke.
âI purchased a spirit that has the ability to create things. They might not be able to create something amazing, but theyâll be able to make items that we need in our daily lives.â
Catalinaâs mouth opened when Yong-Ho spoke and Rikum quietly nodded his head because Forasâs dungeon already had those types of spirits.
And like always, Eligor had tears in his eyes.
âOhâŚa waterway, a workshop and a master craftsmanâŚit seems like the groundwork for the House of Mammonâs dungeon is nearly complete.â
Catalina mustâve felt the same way as Eligor because she looked like she was touched. Rikum asked Yong-Ho.
âWhat kind of spirit did you purchase? The price of a master craftsman varies depending on their skillâŚI heard that there are instances where free spirits ask for a lot more than what they deserve.â
âAmong the Rank Three spirits, I chose the Dwarf. Like I mentioned before, we canât expect something great, but Iâm sure they can make items we can use daily.â
And Yong-Ho had the Power of Evolution. The skill of a master craftsman didnât have any relation to physical development, but if he focused on their talent and attribute stats, he was sure there would be results.
âIn Forasâs dungeon, there is one Dwarf craftsman. Even though they were crude, they were talented. There is a bit of a difference between the Dwarves, but I think you made a great choice.â
After adding in the dungeon workshop, the dungeon map looked a lot better.
âIâm pretty proud of it.â
When he first came here, the only facility the dungeon had was the throne room, making it a very bleak dungeon.
Eligor managed to return to his normal self and asked Yong-Ho as he turned around.
âA massive amount of mana and time is required when rearranging the dungeon. After the dungeon shopâs delivery man arrives tomorrow, Iâll make sure to make preparations for the rearrangement.â
It was a task to completely change the dungeon and even though it was a small housekeeping task, there was a need to do it.
But Yong-Ho shook his head.
âNo, thereâs something else that needs to be done before that.â
Before rearranging the dungeon.
Before the passageway that Yong-Ho saw changes.
Catalina and Eligor both looked at Yong-Ho with a confused expression. Rikum wondered if it was regarding the pub that he mentioned before. Skull was rolling on the ground as always and was saying their name. It was more fitting because their body was now made out of stone.
Yong-Ho looked at the silver ring that was on his left hand.
A wolf that was swallowing a moon.
