Chapter 841: A Battle Between Dungeon Masters
-----
Arachne's presence when she glanced at me generated some sort of invisible pressure that I was able to detect. But once she was gone, this pressure instantly disappeared. Most likely, she was glancing somewhere else within the dungeon, concentrating on dealing with my parents while trying to secure Luck. I bet she wants him to absorb both his and Lara's powers together.
"She's gone now, Sylphy!" Alice said.
"Good, then let's begin! [Dungeon Gate Summon]!"
Furoh quickly stopped midway through and glanced back at the monsters, as my blue bracelet started shining brightly with spatial and dungeon energy.
FLUOOOSH! FLUOOOSH!
Ding!
[The [Dungeon Master: Lv2] Skill [Dungeon Gate (2)] Ability has been activated!]
[Two Gates leading inside your Dungeon have been opened!]
[You have summoned your Monsters to battle!]
"SHAAAAH!"
"GROOOARR!"
"GUUUUU!"
A huge Giant Black Spider Queen, the Rainbow Slime King, and the Forest King emerged, and alongside them, hundreds of monsters, from Tier 3 to Tier 5!]
"GRRRHHH?!"
The Swarm was swiftly confused, always fighting by large groups, they've never been confronted by an equally enormous group themselves! In fact, I think Arachne only sent about a hundred insects at most, she was really cutting resources on me.
You'll pay really badly for looking down on me, Arachne!
"Of course, Tier 7 Monsters still will crush my weaker monsters. How about we even out the situation?" I laughed. "[Spiritual Blessing]! [Yggdragon's Aura]!"
FLAAAAASH!
A wave of golden spiritual light covered the hundreds of monsters I summoned, alongside my own Yggdragon Aura, as Ignatius and Naturia merged their powers into my aura to allow me to conjure it at full power!
The Yggdragon's Auras of Wrath, blazing with red color covered most of the monsters with spiritual and phantasmal armors made of spirit flames, resembling draconic armor. The Spider Queen, Slime King, and the Forest King looked specially awesome.
Ding!
[You have activated the effects of [Spirit Blessing]!]
[Dungeon Monsters that you control as their [Dungeon Master] are counted as [Familiars] within the Skill's Effects!]
[All [Familiars] Stats have increased by +300%, HP and MP Regeneration Speed has increased by +300% and earned EXP has increased by +300%!]
[You have activated the [Divine Yggdragon's Double Aura: Lv6] Skill!]
[The Power of the [Yggdragon's Wrathful Tyrant Aura] has been activated! All nearby Allies Damage Dealt has increased greatly, and they can now ignore a large part of foe's defenses!]
[The Power of the [Yggdragon's Guardian Spirit Aura] has been activated! All nearby Allies HP, MP, and Stamina is being regenerated at an even faster speed! Damage Taken will be greatly reduced!]
FLUOOOOOSH!
With the almighty power of buffs, my slightly weaker army became much stronger! Even though nobody could one shot a Tier 7 insect, they weren't dying any time soon against their blows.
"Now! Gang on them! Giant Black Spiders, restrain their legs using spiderwebs! Slimes, melt their bodies and weaken them with your poison and acid! Beasts! Attack with your sharp fangs and claws!"
The spiders worked together wonderfully by obeying me and their queen, quickly beginning to wrap the legs of many insects, while the slimes defended the majority from damage using their slimy bodies that could take almost any hit easily because of how gelatinous they were.
And thanks to the many buffs, they became mighty defensive allies! With the heavy hitters on front and my Spirits and Familiars attacking alongside them, attacks and explosions quickly began to spread out.
CLASH! BOOM! CRASH! CLAAASH! BOOOM!
Several Tier 6 and 7 Insectoids started falling to their deaths one after another, once one was finally killed, the rest started falling like a domino effect.
"A-Amazing, those damn monsters are taking care of the situation surprisingly efficiently." Ignatius was amazed. "Well, if it wasn't for my aura, it would be much different!"
"It is thanks to our aura." Said Naturia. "Foofooo!"
"Beelzebub, Curse, make sure to poison and weaken the monsters!" I commanded. "Ignatius, Naturia, keep conjuring the auras because they disappear after a few minutes!"
"A-Ah, yes!" Ignatius nodded.
"Sure!" Naturia agreed.
"Hahaha! Take this you shitheads! You're not real demons, just monsters created by that good for nothing evil goddess!" Beelzebub laughed, unleashing a wave of poison and paralyzing wing scales that paralyzed dozens of monsters, and poisoned them.
"I shall restrain your movements, beasts!" Curse utilized his curses to weaken and debuff their stats, while he conjured chains and tentacles made of darkness to restrain a few dozen more.
"Glutton, I guess you can go loose if you want to!" I laughed.
"BAARRF! BAARFFF!"
Glutton, the living dimensional bag mimic became extremely happy, as he started rushing into the battlefield. His stats were no joke, as his small size suddenly became tens of times larger, and by using his sharp fangs and the buffs provided to him, he started shredding apart the insectoids one at a time and swallowing them.
CRAASH! CRAASH! CRAAASH!
"Violet, you… Nah, you stay here." I had considered letting her fight, but she wasn't made for fighting at all, all her skills were about alchemy mostly.
"Guu!" She nodded, staying at my side.
Brownie was also summoned, his body quickly grew larger, becoming a gigantic, monstrous mole, and using his earth magic and sharp claws, he started massacring dozens of insectoids as well.
"Alice! Is the barrier done?" I asked.
"Almost! T-There!" Alice suddenly channeled all of my endless Mana, as a wave of Mana Disrupting energy conjured from my Mana Disruption Skill emerged.
FLAAAAAASH!
The invisible and colorless barrier covered our surroundings and reached the ceiling. Covering the entire area. This is to disrupt the mana and create an illusion that nothing is happening by blocking the mana fluctuations.
I know how Arachne can notice when something weird is happening because we Dungeon Masters "sense" it the moment we are inside our dungeons. But with this, she won't be able to sense it, and I'll be able to not be as disrupted by her attacks.
"Charge!" I roared, as Furoh rapidly galloped into the battle. I swung my sword and blocked attacks with my shield, battling as many monsters as possible while moving forwards with my army of dungeon monsters.
This has already become a battle between Dungeon Masters!
Also, I'm worried about our weaker members such as Mist and Celica, I'll make sure to find them quickly!
