"..."

"Okay.... So.... That was.... Mine question.... Wow... Things really took a fucking chaotic turn, didn’t it?" – said Ariva to herself as the group made a long break before resuming the talk.

"Em.... You good Porai?"

"I.... I really don’t have any fucking clue what to say." - said the vampire as she sat down on the chair of blood.

"This.... Big revelation."

"..."

(Thauma.... Fuck .) – thought Porai.

(A being that is a golem yet at the sa it is not.)

(This thing is truly monstrosity.... And I an it many different categories.)

(One thing would be if Ariva was directly involved... But she was not! Like one bit!)

(....)

(I want to know.)

(This creature....Thauma!)

(I need to know everything about it!)

(All its secrets! THE WHOLE STORY!)

(I WANT TO KNOW!) – thought extrely excited vampire who needed to hide her smile behind her hands.

"..."

(But....) – thought the vampire as she quickly cald herself down.

"Now it my question.... Isn’t it?" – asked Porai.

"Yeah. Go on." – said Ariva.

"..."

"My question is to you this ti." – said Porai.

"Ariava."

"What is your goal here?"

"..."

"What could you be possible talking about?" – replied Ariava with a smile.

"You knew what the hell were you doing!" – said Porai.

"You slaughtered the people that were with ."

"Kidnapped ."

"And even brough here, straight up revealing the existence of your child to !"

"You told that you will explain everything to when we got here, so keep your fucking word and explain it!"

"What the fuck are you doing!?"

"..."

"Okay." – said Ariva.

"Well, this will be bit longer explanation."

"So... Yeah.... Quick question to you Thauma."

"Do you want to know what I was doing when I left you? Question cost."

"..."

["Fine."]

"Good." – said Ariva.

"Well then, I guess I’m going to explain it."

"As character I’m.... Well, simple put, I’m free."

"I’m not really bound by anything like factions."

"Nations."

"Clans."

"Families."

"Or anything."

"I’m just all on my own."

"Doing anything I want."

"I’m free."

"However, at the sa ti, I really have nothing to do.... So I kind of need sothing to not get bored."

"So I just try and do anything that can make things... Interesting."

"Sotis I takes sides, playing my own gas."

"Sotis I do my research, trying to find sothing interesting."

"Sotis I watch over so stories happening."

"I took on the role of a spectator."

"Or sotis I just deal with annoyance that cos my way."

"I just what I want."

"When I left your dungeon back then, I didn’t left the continent or more specifically, this part of this continent."

"I’ve been doing my own.... Well, let’s just say I found sothing interesting that was scattered around here."

"So, curiosity got better of and I’ve started my own research."

"And honestly speaking? That whole running around caused to even heard about your dungeon in the first place."

"Anyway, after I’ve left the dungeon, I continued my research, exploring different kingdoms and what not."

"Simple put, having my own adventurer."

"..."

"However, the whole ss regarding the Garmfon kingdom and the neighboring kingdoms was.... Quiet loud."

"Not only that, I’ve also started noticing so figures moving in the shadows."

"Vampires."

"At first, I thought the vampires were scheming sothing, like they were behind all of those wars.... But nope."

"I’ve found out that they were really innocent."

"It was really just pure greed of people that caused these all wars to happened."

"And vampires decided to use this whole chaos as their perfect opportunity for their own plans."

"But still, the vampire movent was... Interesting to say the least."

"So I spied a little bit on them."

"And I’ve found what Porai said."

"The vampires are aiming to create their own nation."

"But not so random ass weak nation."

"No."

"They want full foundation."

"They want this empire to be both for them and the people that serv king called Gustav Warmin."

"They don’t want to hide."

"Or more exactly, they want to build this nation side by side with people, gain their trust and show that they are not a monsters."

"As for why they are hiding.... Well, it is less about protecting themselves, and more about protecting the people of the empire."

"As said before, many people see vampires as monsters."

"So what would happened if vampires would reveal themselves from the get go?"

"..."

"From the way you speak it seems you know about the whole thing than ." – said Poriv.

"Yeb. I do." – replied Ariva.

"However, there is still lot of unknowns that I cannot understand."

"Simply put, I still lack information in several key areas."

"In the key areas the only the tops, knows the answers."

"Is the nation for both their people truly the case?"

"Maybe vampires revealing themselves is just a cover up?"

"Or maybe it has a different aning?"

"Maybe the king is just using vampires and plans to betray them?"

"Maybe the vampires wants to conquer this part of continent?"

"Maybe the king that they had struck the deal with was manipulated by the vampires? Not knowing that the other nations weren’t moving out own their greed, but instead were possible manipulated by vampires, making the king panic and struck the deal with the vampires that he had t?"

"Who knows?"

"I can make speculation over and over like this.... But again, I lack information."

"I can just make my own theories over and over again, but who know which one would hit the target?"

"..."

"But still, this is maybe quiet big."

"Vampires are gathering in large numbers."

"Not only that, several noble vampires are also appearing here and there."

"And maybe possible so other interesting figures maybe making their own moves."

"This empire may end up becoming truly interesting.... And who knows?"

"Maybe it will truly beco the solid third empire in this continent."

"?"

["Third?"]

"There are currently 2 empires on this continent that had been active for extrely long ti." – said Porai.

"They are on the completely opposite of our current location, but still, their presence can be felt."

"The empire that was born in the desert."

"The Sha’ku’t empire."

"The empire ruled by the race called kmsha."

"A extrely powerful race that cannot be looked down upon lightly."

"And the second empire, which is interesting enough located right next to them."

"The Oiwarn empire."

"A empire that is made out of several races."

"Both of these empires... Well, they are extrely powerful, I got to give it to them."

"All enemies they had fought were easily exterminated."

"Honestly speaking, if it wasn’t for the fact that these two empires are right next to each other, their territories may had expanded exponentially."

"Simple put? They are holding each other." – said Ariva.

"However, here? There is no such nation as this new empire."

"No enemy powerful enough to oppose them."

"And if the empire is truly born, like for real – real, then it may end up truly becoming one of the most powerful figures in this part of the continent."

"..."

"That is, if the empire survives."

"I’m going to be honest."

"I’ve visited the nations around, and I can tell you this."

"They are greedy."

"The probability of them forming alliance in order to exterminate the whole empire and then share their territories.... Well, it is sowhat extrely big."

"They are cowardly, sure."

"But they do have at least bit of brains in their heads to sowhat think for a mont."

"And even if the empire may have support of vampires and army of golems, that doesn’t automatically ans they were overpowered."

"This empire can be destroyed."

"And right now, it is beyond burnable."

"This is a truth you can just see by looking at this newly reborn nation."

"So yeah.... Thauma?"

"Sorry to say that, but your dungeon is truly is most shitess location possible."

"Since you may really end up sowhat in the middle of the war once again."

"..."

["Is this normal or am I just really unlucky?"]

"Oh, fuck no! You are really unlucky! I an, at first, I thought your location was sowhat perfect, since the territory you are in isn’t worth much at all."

"But then.... Well... War, after war.... You know... Right?"

"..."

"Anyway, back to my own story."

"I saw the vampires and I knew what they were doing."

"Well, partially."

"And I saw you, Thauma."

"I’ve heard what you did."

"Chaos."

"Destruction."

"Survival."

"I’ve decided to check things out, since I wanted to find out what was going on."

"Well... You survived all this ti."

(Well, technically I’ve visited the forest before without saying hi when I was going by, but oh well.) – thought Ariva.

"You my good friend, you had survived, all on your own, without having receiving any support from or from anybody."

"All yours."

"You obtained the victory with your own two hands."

"And honestly speaking?"

"I’m proud of you."

"..."

"But then I found out sothing that.... Well, let’s just say that pissed off."

"The vampires wanted to enslave my deer child."

"Honestly, when these Crow Watchers attacked your forest, I was nearby, watching the whole thing from the shadows."

"?!"

["You were here?!"]

"Yes. I was."

"And no. I won’t apologize."

"Since you had proved yourself more than enough to handle yourself."

"In other words, I didn’t needed to intervene."

"You can handle yourself and you straight up dealt with problems that went your way."

"You had proven your independents."

"But then.... I’ve made a little.... Investigation on my own end."

"And I’ve found out sothing."

"That they decided to fuck it and sent the big guns." – said Ariva as Porai got visible nervous.

"They sent her alongside several of their top people, to go and enslave your dungeon."

"Yes. She was enemy, don’t write and just listen." – said Ariva, stopping Thauma from writing.

"I’m going to say this straight."

"They really wanted to get you."

"Since they sent one of their strongest people to get you."

"And if I’m being honest Thauma?"

"There is a good chance that she may had done the job."

"She isn’t so random nobody, as you already had realized."

"She is a core of the empire."

"And she is strong like hell on top of being the being the person behind the golemancy in the empire."

"I know she looks scared of .... But that doesn’t an that she isn’t strong."

"..."

(She fucking said that, but she was straight up fucking playing with us from the start when we fought back then!) – thought Porai.

(And the mont she shown her getting little bit fucking seniors, just fucking snap, and fucking bodies dropped!)

(It was the mont I’ve understood.)

(She was just playing with us like a dolls.)

(I’m strong... Yeah.... But she is a monster that I’m too scared to ss with.)

"So.... Let’s just say... I may had gotten little pissed off with what they were trying to do, by sowhat.... ’Cheating’, per say?" – said Ariva.

"Don’t look down on this woman, she may truly had been able to enslave you."

"..."

"So... If I understand that correctly." – said Poriv.

"You wanted your ’child’ to be independent, to grow and do what it wants, while not trying to lift even a single finger to help him, yes?"

"Correct." – replied Ariva.

"However, because the empire dispatched , one of their strongest people, you decided to call it ’cheating’ and straight up left the role of the observer to just fuck the empire over big ti by exterminating my team and kidnapping ."

"Is that correct as well?"

"Yes." – replied Ariva.

"Okay.... Okay, okay, OKAY!" – said Porai.

"Here is a question."

"THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING NOW?!" – shouted Porai.

"You do realize what you had just done, right!?"

"RIGHT!?"

"I took this job because of my own interested."

"I was interested in the dungeon and wanted to research it for my own gain."

"I may had been being used at the tool at the sa ti, but I was fine!"

"I was using them, and they were using !"

"A deal!"

"But then, you ca and straight up set everything on fire."

"You gotten rid of the corpse. You even completely repaired every damage that was caused by our battle, aning that the people will think that we had just gotten missing or sothing like that."

"BUT I’M NOT SO NOBODY!"

"I MAY HAD BEEN A PERFECT PERSON FOR THE JOB!"

"GOLEMS AND STUFF IS MY SPECIALITY!"

"I WAS STRAIGHT UP THE BEST POSSIBLE OPTION THEY HAD!"

"BUT AT SA TI, I’M BEYOND IMPORTNANT!"

"They fucking know I’m strong like hell! Everybody who knows are aware that I’m not just so fucking slut who locks herself in her workshop and only knows how to craft!"

"I’m used to gathering so high tier materials for myself. Be it so stuff you can find in nature."

"Or so powerful monsters."

"They knew I was strong and not so random assassins could even dare to freaking wound ! Like they wouldn’t have any physical ability since they would just DIE!"

"I’m fucking strong like hell."

"Hell! When Garmofn kingdom fell, I’ve exterminated all of its remains!"

"The elite soldiers of that kingdom!"

"And their general!"

"He may had been poisoned by elves, but still! There was a lot of soldiers and many of them were strong."

"And yet I effortlessly massacred them all with ease!"

"They don’t need to worry about because they knew I was a fucking extrely strong bastard! That is a truth!"

"Not only that, as you said before, I’m the whole reason behind the empire even having ability to be born as well as giving the empire a potentiation to grow their military power in order to solidify their existence and possible allow them to give themselves the true ’birth."

"..."

"So."

"With that said."

"Do you really think there won’t be any possible reaction from going suddenly missing?"

"One of their most powerful fighters, in the whole freaking empire."

"Who was also the most important figures in the formation of the empire AND it is still playing extrely active role in the growth of the empire."

"I was both of these things."

"Most powerful and one of most important beings in the empire."

"Do you truly think that there won’t be.... I don’t know...."

"Any massive side effects after what you did?"

"Oh, I’m fully aware what I’m doing." – said Ariava.

"And I know fully well what would happened after I’ve had kidnapped you."
