Ding!

[You have Created [Phantom Enchantress Demonic Witch Hat Of Nightmares: Morpheus (S Grade)] x1!]

[You gained 40.000 Skill Proficiency.]

[You gained 15.000.000 EXP.]

[You cannot Level Up after hitting Max Level. Earned EXP has been accumulated.]

And right at the mont we were talking about the true aim of the Warlocks, a subgroup of the Evil Vampire Family that has been pestering this continent for way too long, I received a rather peculiar ssage.

My hat was finally done! And it was so divinely beautiful! It was a true witch hat, with all its pointy charm, it was well rounded, black with a hint of dark blue hue, it even had a strong, phantasmal aura to it.

And it was a nad Item too!

"The Dark Pest… We've only heard a bit about him, but there's too little information." Said Eraldine. "Mostly based on the tales the people of the Oasis have told for generations…"

"Nia, do you know anything more?" Asked Partner. "I know you only know the little tales around town but… Anything more from the Dark pest?"

"Well… It was said he was a being of unfathomable evil, and very cunning…" Sighed Nia. "It was said he purposely fought the Oasis Divine Spirit in the middle of the city, making her unable to go all out as she would be risking killing the citizens… But he was ultimately defeated. It is baffling these Vampires, people that isn't even of our lands, have co here worshiping him like a god, when he's only an evil monster…"

"I apologize on behalf of the Majin…" Lucifer sighed. "The Vampires left behind after the Demon King War long ago were only the most ruthless and the ones with the greatest intentions of revenge, they grew corrupt, only aiming for power to destroy all humans. I am sure the Demon King wouldn't have wanted this to happen."

"Oh, you don't have to apologize… They're bad people, you shouldn't think of them as the sa as the guys we unfroze back ho." I explained. "I doubt any of the sick bastards we fought would ever be redeed."

"That's… true." Lucifer sighed. "We've been eting mostly evil vampires, and the ones that were good only showed that facet after being defeated by us and turned into Undead. I wish there could be soone out there that was trying to change things in this regard. It feels like their entire Family has now been catalogued as irrediable evils."

"It is… Well, yeah…" Catarina sighed. "Don't believe everything, although the Warlocks are surely crazy. Most of us… Were mostly forrly non-vampires, turned to serve them. We didn't know anything else in our lives either. So the only option we had to survive was to obey them and fight. Still, it's no excuse I suppose…"

"You were an evil Vampire, big sis?" Silva asked Catarina with a worried expression.

"I was… I tried to kill Maria and her friends." She sighed. "They defeated , and I beca an Undead. Over ti, I learned about freedom, and that what I did was wrong. I've gone through a lot of things, and now I am even so sort of Phantasmal Ghost being, life's really full of weird things, but over ti, these weird things have taught valuable lessons."

"She's terrible at words, I'm so sorry Silva." I apologized in her behalf.

"W-What?! Oi, you damn…!" Catarina contained herself from swearing in front of his little disciple.

That little interaction lightened the mood, as most people laughed loudly.

We continued our feast while occasionally talking about the many things we've experienced, and after we were almost done with our als, we decided to explore that chamber I saw.

There were no lifeforms inside, so we weren't really looking forward to any battle.

"Is this a huge door? Where does this even lead to?" Eraldine wondered. "It looks like the entrance to so ruins."

"It looks quite ancient, yes." I nodded. "By rely sensing it with my senses, I can tell these are so old ruins."

I touched the door, as it absorbed my mana and quickly opened, revealing a huge, abandoned laboratory inside.

There was many broken alchemy equipnt scattered all over the place, and many precious jewels and other things I had never seen before.

"Although the place looked like ancient ruins, this was used not so long ago." Jonathan analyzed it. "And- What's that?!"

He quickly panicked, pointing his sword at sothing floating in the middle of the dark room, it resembled a giant silver colored sphere, infected with darkness and possessing crimson eyes around its entire spherical body.

It constantly generated small waves of Miasma and Chaos energies, which filled with earth and slowly contaminated the entire caves.

"T-This must be the artifact they left to contaminate this place!" Eraldine said, rather saddened. "By rely staring at it, I feel weakened… Just what is this thing?"

"Let's see…"

[The System has Analyzed the target.]

[Analysis successful.]

-----

[Corrupted Chaotic Dungeon Core (SS Grade)]

A Dungeon Core that has been modified using Miasma and other corrupted energies, and transford into a special A Dungeon Core that has been modified using Miasma and other corrupted energies, and transford into a special artifact that can contaminate areas with miasma over ti.

Contaminated areas will spawn monsters faster, and it will infect all living lifeforms into stronger and more aggressive forms. The more it slowly infects things, the more strong monsters will be created.

High chances for A Rank or even S Rank Monsters to appear after enough ti.

"Well, well, well, isn't this the best thing I could have asked for?" I laughed, as I showed everyone the item description by making the system window visible to them.

"It was indeed this that made them so strong then!" Lucifer said. "So sort of corrupted dungeon core, I had no idea a dungeon core could be repurposed this way… How hideous."

"They probably sohow took it from an already existing dungeon that was destroyed…" I sighed. "Well, I'll be taking it for myself now."

I quickly grabbed the core, which spun aggressively and tried to infect with its miasma, but that only made feel stronger.

"I'll leave you inside my Soul for a bit…"
