Chapter 673: A Completely Unexpected Turn of Events!
Epic of Caterpillar
[Day 272]
[Kireina] gained +6050 Skill Points and Subclass Skill Points due to the prayers of your believers!] (Added!)
[Kireina] gained +36.000 Dungeon Points due to the combined energy gathered by your Dungeons!] (Added!)
After having explored many dungeons yesterday, we had just finished battling the last boss as I was blessed by the Skill Points and Dungeon Points of the day… however, as I was about to glance at my gained EXP, something weird happened.
[Calculating EXP Gained…]
[System Error!]
[Experience Points amount has surpassed the limit value!]
[Recalibrating…]
Wait… What?!
[Fixing Errors…]
[Fixing Bugs…]
[System Error!]
[Not Enough Space Limit for Experience Points number]
[Recalibrating…]
Eh…?! Are you shitting me?
How can it be…?
Wait… did I just earn more than fifteen zeroes?
Agh, to be honest, this whole thing is very confusing, I was just letting it be at this point, but it seems that the number is getting bigger and bigger.
Perhaps the System was never prepared for someone to acquire such amount of Experience Points?
I mean, the amount I get is made not simply by slaying monsters, as it also comes into play my large multipliers and all…
But what will happen now? Would I not be able to level up anymore or something?
[Fixing Errors]
[Recalibrating…]
Ding!
Ah, there it is!
[A New Experience Gain System has been produced]
[Numbers for the required amount of Experience Points will not be shown anymore, but whenever there is a level up, it will be shown]
Eh?
Is that it?
…
I guess they could not find another way to fix it without making it broken again, so they just choose to not show me my Experience Points gained anymore… well, as long as I see it leveling up, I will know that the number of experience points was nice, anyways.
Ding!
[Kireina] gained an exorbitant amount of EXP due to the prayers of your believers and previously slain monsters!]
[Kireina] has gathered the sufficient amount of required Experience Points!]
[Kireina] has leveled from Level: 126 to Level: 128!]
[Current Level: 128/250]
Ding!
[Kireina] acquired the [System Breaker] Title!]
Huh…?
Okay, what?!
Show me that Title info, right now!
[System Breaker]
A title bestowed upon those that had broken the System more than once.
This Skill increases the total growth of the wielder, including Experience Points, Skill Points, and even Dungeon Points.
This Title opens the path towards the Manipulation of the Primordial Law of the System.
I see… so they gave me this as compensation…
Wait… What is that last line?!
'This Title opens the path towards the Manipulation of the Primordial Law of the System'?! Really?!
…But I do not feel any different, nor I feel like I can manipulate the System or anything… but I guess it 'opens the path', it does not mean that it gives me the power to do so. I still have to figure it out by myself.
Sigh…
Anyways, moving this issue aside, I spent the whole day yesterday up to today in the morning completing all the dungeons, and the EXP gathered was quite a lot.
Also, the rewards were just as good, getting rewards from eighteen different Dungeons is really amazing, the rewards are as follows:
[Ancient Reward Loot Box (A)] x20
[Ancient Reward Loot Box (S)] x6
[Ancient Reward Loot Box (SS)] x2
[Lesser Legendary Relic of the Abyssal Piranha Hunter of the Swap] x1
[Lesser Legendary Relic of the Necrotic Poisonous Toad Emperor] x1
[Lesser Legendary Relic of the Monstrous Blood Sucking Leech] x1

[Lesser Legendary Relic of the Shadow Mane Draconic Lion Emperor] x1
[Lesser Legendary Relic of the Phantasmagoric Wailing Banshee Empress] x1
[Lesser Legendary Relic of the Infernal Volcanic Turtle Emperor] x1
[Lesser Legendary Relic of the Thunderstorm Eel Dragon Emperor] x1
[Lesser Legendary Relic of the Great Multi-form Aberration Empress] x1
[Lesser Legendary Relic of the Furious Blood Beast Empress] x1
[Lesser Legendary Relic of the Aberrant Flesh Chimera Monstrosity] x1
[Lesser Legendary Relic of the Spatial Aberrant Worm Emperor] x1
[Lesser Legendary Relic of the Spectral Skeleton Octopus Empress] x1
[Lesser Legendary Relic of the Parasitic Undead Slime Emperor] x1
[Lesser Legendary Relic of the Vampiric Undead Winter Bat Empress] x1
[Legendary Relic of the Royal Vampiric Mosquito Empress] x1
[Legendary Relic of the Disease Carrying Aberrant Fly Emperor] x1
[Legendary Relic of the One Hundred Eyed Vicious Squid Empress] x1
[Phantasmal Relic of the Abyssal Giant of Darkness] x1
[Divine Dungeon Treasure (Phantasmal)] x2
Yup, it was a lot, at the end, even if they were weak Bosses, those were eighteen Dungeons, with the last one having three Bosses, which the last one gave a Phantasmal Relic to boot.
Ah, the last Boss was a strange Giant-type monster with the size of a mountain whose skin was charcoal black, and it was completely covered in a dark shadow. Its arms were also chained, and it possessed quite the physical strength… but it was quickly defeated by the combination attack from my wives, the Slime Family girls fought against this thing by themselves though, which makes me wonder just how strong they became now…
Aside from the great loot, we also gathered a ton of meat from all the bosses we defeated, if I eat this many, I am sure that I might get some Skills at the very least.
However, before that, I glanced at a small sphere in front of me.
This was the last dungeon Mana Core.
I touched it with my hand as I infused my Divine Aura into it and then used 'Labyrinth Plunder'.
Flash!
The Mana Core quickly turned completely black, with red, purple, and pink colors spiraling around the endless darkness within the sphere.
[Kireina] has successfully snatched the Dungeon!]
[Kireina] obtained the [Abyssal Giant of Darkness Labyrinth] Dungeon!]
[The [Abyssal Darkness Dungeon Core] has mutated into the [Heavenly Chaos Abyssal Darkness Dungeon Core!]
[The Levels of the [Divine Dungeon Body Entity: Level 3] and [Divine Dungeon Body Transformation: Level 3] Skills have increased by one!]
[Dungeon Menu Upgraded!]
And now…
Ding!
[Wicked Bloody Labyrinth of the Devilish Demoness (Merged Dungeon)]'s Unique Skill [Dungeon Devour; Level 9] has been activated, however, it needs the Master approbation]
[Approve of this?]
[>YES NO]
"Yes"
Ding!
[The [Dungeon Devour] Skill from the [Wicked Bloody Labyrinth of the Devilish Demoness (Merged Dungeon)] has been activated]
[Both Dungeons are being merged, please wait, and sit tight]
Boom!
Several thunderous sounds resonated within the dungeon and the surfaces, as both dungeons began to connect.
Ding!
[The [Wicked Bloody Labyrinth of the Devilish Demoness (Merged Dungeon)] has devoured the [Abyssal Giant of Darkness Labyrinth] dungeon, and both dungeons have been successfully merged!]
[The Energy of both dungeons is being shared, a dungeon expansion through the [Territory] of [Grand Forest] and the [Ollathir Wasteland] is going to take place]
[Expanding…]
BOOM!
Another thunderous sound roared, as the expansion of the dungeon quickly happened and came to an end… Does it always have to be so loud?
Anyways, although I had already merged seventeen dungeons into my main dungeon because they were very small, it was as if the increase in power was barely that of a half-decent dungeon such as the Forsaken Labyrinth after I snatched this one and let it fuse with my main dungeon.
Now, I decided to check on my Dungeon Stats to see its improvements, I didn't expect anything big, but it should be something quite noticeable at the very least.
From having fused all of these small Dungeons, I got a lot of Dungeon Points though, it seems that although they were small and crappy, they had accumulated a lot of Dungeon Points over time that were never used by their anonymous gods or whoever settled them there, so it was a plentiful harvest.
Also, my Dungeon Power Stat skyrocketed, easily getting five thousand extra points from all of this.

Ah, it has gotten even bigger now… And more Skills had awakened within it, also, its level increased as well to over eighty.
Making it 'devour' smaller Dungeons really does help at the end, huh…
There are a few more of these 'small' dungeons within the Vast Plains that I could go to snatch with ease to get another little boost.
But I wonder who made these Dungeons? They are so small…
Anyways, after having finished this thing, I quickly flew back to my Empire, where everyone was waiting for me.
After having merged back with all of the True Body Clones I left here, my family quickly went back to the Empire through my Inner Realms, but I had to go there by my own accord as I cannot use this method on myself.
But with my speed and new capabilities, I reached that place within seconds.
By using the 'Void Walk' combined with other Spatial Attribute Magic Spells, I managed to travel through the Spatial Layers at an incredible speed, reaching my Empire at the time record of thirty seconds.
Opening a rift in space, I entered my castle as I was greeted by my family enjoying a feast, all of the Boss Monsters were brought here and were being currently cooked in many different ways, the delicious smell of many preparations filled my nostrils.
My Slime Clones and a few of my True Body Clones were cooking alongside Chokumotsu and Kaen, the dishes that were being made could only be described as godly…
"Mommy's back!" said Vudia.
"Mommy, quick! Come eat with us!" said Ailine.
"The meat of the Giant is surprisingly good, guu," said Rimuru.
"Indeed, it looked so ugly but the meat is amazing, I might go hunt it more often," said Brontes.
"Brontes, don't you feel bad for it? I mean… it's a giant like you, right?" asked Oga.
"Ah? No? Why would I feel bad?" said Brontes.
"Ah, well, nothing, I guess I am overthinking things," said Oga.
"Who cares about that! Enjoy the meals!" said Gaby, as she laughed and drank a whole barrel of beer.
"Indeed, this beer goes incredibly well with the giant's meat! Especially if you drink it in very cold barrels!" said Nesiphae as she drank a barrel of beer as well.
"I-I don't think that is the way to drink alcohol…" muttered Kaguya.
"Enjoy! Enjoy!" said Gaby, offering Kaguya beer as she shyly drank.
I sat down on my throne as I cheered for yet another plentiful harvest, a tiny trip around conquering dungeons that brought a lot of small fortunes and some fun in our lives.
Haahh… Although I cannot get out of my head the EXP thing, how would the System Gods have reacted about it?
It concerns me a bit, perhaps I am becoming too much of a nuisance?
I hope not.
