“Once it received an order like this, it became an entity on its own…” Billy said. “It is really like an AI… Once it has a goal, it will do everything to reach that goal. Anyway, I am not expecting much from the tyrants that will spawn around this dungeon.”

Billy sighed when he saw that. His wives and friends were looking forward to the dungeon so he couldn’t disappoint them. He began to feed the core with all his mana. The others hesitated a bit on using more than they already did. Still, they realized that they would need that dungeon to make everyone stronger, anyway. So, they began to help Billy, but it looked like a lot more would be needed for that.
When they finished that, the core began to spawn Tyrants that were at level fifty… it still was a long way to go, but it was better than nothing. It only made them confirm several theories regarding the dungeons. The fact that they stayed sealed for many years was true. They waited until the cores were strong enough and the world could offer them more mana.
“Let’s return,” Billy said. “While reviving the dungeons is a problem, it can also be something that we can use to strengthen ourselves all of a sudden in the future. The more our reserves of mana are larger, the better.”
“About that, we probably can’t absorb other dungeon cores,” Meryl said. “It took a lot from us to get the ones we have, and they improved some of our skills a bit. Adding more of their nature to our cores might create more problems than help.”
“Hmm… so it would happen a conflict between the energies, I guess that makes sense,” Billy said.
Although Billy could use his innate skills to more or less cheat the system and produce mana with Emotional Control, Exp Conversion, and Rage, he still had other things to talk about with the others, so leveling up the dungeon cores was a task for later.
“I noticed that your golems still are working underground with the tunnels,” Meryl said. “It would be nice if we could use some of them to develop the continent. This area is too large and wild, and most people are still trying to leave their own lives without organization. But we should manage to convince them to join us if we improve the lifestyle in our camps.”
“I can make some tools that will let you summon your own golems,” Billy said. “Those guys underground need to keep working on that for the future’s sake. Uvish is the main problem, and while he probably can see things with Clairvoyance, other enemies probably won’t be able to do the same. We need more of that to surprise them and to help with logistics.”
“I suppose that will be enough, thanks,” Meryl said.
“You are being too nice as of lately, Billy,” Icarus said.
“There is no need to make this weird. I am just working on considering the future with the options that I have in hand,” Billy said. “If you have a fetish for being verbally abused, you should look for someone else. I can’t help you with that.”
“Now that is more like you…” Icarus said.
After that, they talked a little about their future plans. Clearing dungeons wasn’t much of a challenge when they had dungeon cores now. Unless they revived the fire dragon dungeon, which was something that they needed since it was the only place they could put themselves to the limits despite their powers.
Eventually, Billy reunited with his wives, kids, and friends, and then he had to look after the kids since the others wanted to check the dungeon. Unfortunately, the challenge that they had been waiting for wasn’t there yet…
“All right, everyone, today you are going to learn how to control your mana better,” Billy said to keep the kids busy. “Let’s surprise the mamas when they return.”
While the kids were already seven, and Larah was eight years old, Billy decided that keeping working on their foundations would be better than teaching offensive magic or technique. That would help them learn Fierce Aura faster as well. Helen was just three years old, so she couldn’t do much aside from meditating and working on the basics, so it was fine.
Billy thought that the others would get tired soon. Still, much to his surprise, they managed to entertain themselves while fighting the tyrants without using weapons. Speaking of the tyrants, Billy wanted to learn the infamous draconic skills. Still, since they were passive, he didn’t know how to copy them, even when he had Absolute Mimicry…
“So many things to do… so little time,” Billy thought while he watched the kids training. “I was planning to teach them magic only to know how to protect themselves, but at this rate… they will be ended up helping me instead of protecting themselves.”
Hector was already good enough with magic to create a one hundred meters tall tower, even if it was a pretty thin one. Christina was about to start training the basics three skills of his tribe… time sure flies.
