I remember that the first time that we came to this dungeon, the first boss we fought was a giant toad, and I didn't expect to fight it again so soon, it seems that our first boss was indeed the first boss of this dungeon.

Nyzzet's dungeon has a lineal amount of floors, monsters and bosses, and a boss every ten floors. The Dungeon was actually rather shorter than I imagined, but it seemed long and tiring because the party that would enter would be constantly sent around into random floors, which need to be completed to advance towards the next set of floors

It seems that, if it were not because of this feature, the first boss that a party would have to fight against was a Giant Thunder Toad. I remember that the first time we came here, we killed this boss multiple times, so I will not get any system rewards from it this time…

I remember killing it several times as it respawned quite fast, harvesting a good amount of Experience Points… but well, the experience points that it gives me now is insignificant.

My youngest children wanted to give it a go, like Marduk, Nammu, and Nanshe jumped towards it while baring the fangs in all of their heads.

Marduk began to launch fire breath, burning the toad alive, while Nammu voraciously bit into the flesh, tearing it apart and slashing it with the long claws of her hands, and then Nanshe used her snakes to seep deadly poison into the toad…

After five minutes, it died just like that.

The Scylla triplets celebrated their victory as they began to devour the giant toad in a rush.

"You did it!" said Mady, hugging the three as they tried to keep eating the delicious and tender meat of the giant toad.

"Ma! Ma!" said Marduk proudly.

"Awoo!" said Nammu while licking Mady with her puppy heads.

"Shaa…" muttered Nanshe mildly annoyed, as she was still eating and was interrupted.

After a few minutes, a new toad appeared, this one was slaughtered by Nirah and Belle, just as easier.

"Mama! How did we do?" asked Nirah and Belle.

"You did very well, my dears! I think you killed it so fast it is a new record!" I said.

"Now, our turn!" said Nyphenne, my green-feathered harpy daughter, as she led her six other siblings.

After another few minutes, a third toad was slaughtered by the seven harpy siblings as we finally continued our travels. 

I had forgotten just how good this toad meat was, it was tender, juicy, and tasteful, if cut into pieces, put into a stick, and then grilled, they would make perfect skewers after being covered in some kind of sweet sauce similar to teriyaki sauce.

We explored the next ten floors, where we encountered floors filled with arid biomes, where piles of sand harbored giant scorpions, Great Dark Scorpion Tyrants, and large snakes covered in dark and red scales, Scarlet Eclipse Serpent Emperors, alongside giant wild desert cats, Savage Desert Stalkers.

Such floors had large forest made out of giant species of cactus-filled to the bring with hard spikes, and where many of such forest were also alive and stronger predators, the giant cactus trees would extend giant jaws made up of large and sharp spikes that could easily tear a cow in half.

There was also a giant serpent at the end of floor twenty, which was the boss, this boss I didn't remember killing, so it seemed that it would net me a system reward prize… so I decided to take the lead and quickly dispose of it.

The giant serpent named 'Golden Scaled Dawn Serpent Tyrant Empress' was fifteen meters when standing up, it had gold and brown scales and it possessed a large turtle-like carapace which was used to protect its five heads inside, which it would take out only when it decided to attack with them.

Each head was of a different color, going from Scarlet, Azure, Emerald, White, and Dark, each one had a strong poison on its sharp fangs, but their greatest weapon was the ability to release an energy breath that possessed a certain attribute imbued into it.

It seemed intimidating and it was an overall 'strong' boss for its level, but I was far above its power.

"GRIISHAAAA!"

I decided to kill it fast to get the most achievements out of it, so I flew towards it, used my aura to coat my body, and extended my nails like swords, releasing countless Blade Arts with them, the monster resisted ten seconds before ending sliced into large chunks of meat.

"Grisha-"

Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash!

The chunks of meat were caught by my Aura, which then sent them towards a large pan right at my side, which I just created using the materials of the dungeon.

Rimuru but butter on it and the large chunks of meat fell over it, frying tenderly as they were then seasoned and degusted by everyone.

Ding!

[Calculating EXP gained…] (This includes previously gained EXP from smaller monsters and the three times that the Thunder Toad was slaughtered!)

[Kireina] gained 28.500.500.500 EXP!]

[LEVEL 098/250] [EXP 23.911.359.275.122/27.350.000.000.000] (Added!)

Haah… even with all of my EXP bonuses that I get from titles and skills, that is too low…

As I inspected the loot I acquired through the system, I degusted the meat of the red-colored head, which was tender and rather smoky-flavored, Rimuru added a few spices that combined pretty well with it.

Ding!

[Kireina] defeated the boss [Golden Scaled Dawn Serpent Tyrant Empress]!]

[Kireina] completed several conditions]

[Great Overkill], [Great Overwhelm], [No Item Used], [Detect Weak Point], [Merciful Kill], [No Time to Retaliate], [Complete Annihilation], [Eaten Alive], [Effortless Victory]

[Therefore, [Kireina] have been granted with corresponding prizes]

[Kireina] obtained the item(s) [Ancient Reward Loot Box (A)] x2

[Kireina] obtained the item(s) [Generous EXP Elixir (500.000.000.000) (Mythical)] x1 (BONUS!) 

[Kireina] obtained the item(s) [Lesser Legendary Relic of the Golden Scaled Dawn Serpent Tyrant Empress] x1 (SECRET BONUS!)

[Kireina] acquired the [Blessing of the Golden Scaled Dawn Serpent Tyrant Empress] Skill!]

"Oh? It gave a Blessing and… A Lesser Legendary Relic? Not bad, I suppose… but it is a 'Secret Bonus' reward… so it means that it probably can only be acquired in the way I killed it, which was incredibly fast, in less than a minute and without giving it anyway to retaliate, it surely seems quite impossible to get for a party of a similar level to this Boss,"

"It seems that the faster and more efficiently than a Boss is killed, the greater the reward can be, such as this Secret Bonus, mommy… Nom, nom," said Belle at my side, which was an exceedingly intelligent girl already. 

"Indeed, Belle, let's wait a bit so you guys can kill it on your own, okay?" I said.

"Okay! I will do my best! …Nom, nom" said Belle, while eating a large chunk of fried snake meat.

After waiting an hour, the boss appeared again and at that very moment, Belle, Nirah, the Scylla triples, and the seven harpy siblings ganged on it from all sides.

Belle created bright light and dark shadows, converging them into cannons and penetrating the Boss' scales, Nirah used her favorite whip to damage the boss' carapace, cracking it with ease and then seeping her poisonous divine aura into it, weakening it, even more, the Scylla triples used their tentacle heads to munch and burn the heads and then the seven harpy siblings used their combined magic to deal the last hit on the beast's neck, the part that connected all five heads, making it explode into pieces.

"Congrats!" I said, hugging the little princesses and princes drenched in blood, I quickly cleaned them with my tentacles and then prepared their prize again so they could enjoy seconds.

"That was a flashy show of too many colors…" muttered Amiphossia.

After another small feast, we continued through the floors at a great pace. Although we had just entered the dungeon today, we were able to explore at a great pace due to the weakness of the monster's presence.

[Kireina] acquired the following Skills]

[Great Crown of the Golden-Scaled Snake of Dawn; Level 1] (Assimilated by Superior Skill!)

[Hardened Golden Scales of Shadow Reflection; Level 1] (Assimilated by Superior Skill!)

I got skills by eating it twice, it seems… well, a Boss will always have a distinct quality than a normal monster. Though I wonder why I did not get skills from eating the Kraken on Kaggoth's dungeon… maybe I should have eaten more. 

Ah, the skills were quickly assimilated, I suppose they are strengthening some other better skill, I think that the Crown was perhaps assimilated by either the Calamity Abyss Demon Head or the Horns, and the Scales by the Skin.

The next ten floors were mixed in between icy zones and saltwater ponds with coral forests, every time the floor themes would switch around.

In the icy zones filled with snow-covered floors, frozen walls and ceilings, and a chilling cold temperature there were large crystal-scaled lizards that unleashed icy winds through their mouths, Icy Crystal Scaled Lizards, bugs that seemed to be made completely out of crystalline ice that usually had the shape of dragonflies, but were a few hundred times bigger, Giant Crystal Dragonflies, and also large white-furred monkeys who wore armors made out of bones, Large Winter Ape Skull Warriors.

And in the saltwater pond and coral forest floors, that were filled with algae and a damp and cold temperature, most probably the ice leaking from the floors above and below it, there were flying fishes of all types and sizes, such as Flying Silver Sword Barracudas, Bone Crushing Piranhas, and Giant Flying Roaming Megalodons.

The Giant Flying Roaming Megalodons were on the rarer side, but were gigantic, reaching almost twenty meters, and brought a lot of meat when killed, they were also quite tasty and filled with grease. For a moment I even considered making shark oil.

Reaching the twentieth floor we were greeted by the third boss, the Great Tundra Crystal Crab Tyrant Emperor, a giant crab whose exoskeleton seemed to be made entirely out of icy crystal, having four claws and over twenty legs, it breathed an icy wind and it possessed a small intimidating aura of ice. The floor where it resided was also filled with its eggs, which began to hatch the moment it noticed our presence, using its children as its pawns to fight us back.

As it was a new boss that we didn't fight on our first visit, I decided to kill it first mostly on my own, although my family also helped with various projectiles from afar while they had some fun blowing away the smaller crabs.

Because the boss was mostly of the Ice Attribute, I decided to try out my 'Helios' skill, the awakened skill from 'Overpowering Sun'.

Of course, because this area was rather small, I decided to mind the damage I could cause to others and decided to create watermelon-sized suns made out of a fire 'similar' to the sun.

Their power was intense, and they even seemed to have a slight center of gravity that I could use to create some unique strategies, but because this monster was nothing at all against me, I killed it as swifter as possible to have the best rewards.

Flash! Flash! Flash!

The 'Lesser Overpowering Suns', which I called just now, penetrated the Crab' body as if they were a warm knife through butter, the crab barely swung its claw towards me before it exploded into pieces with a 'Boom!'.

Its exoskeleton was instantly melted and only a pond of bloody water and boiled, tender white meat remained, the steam released by the explosion instantly cooked all of the smaller crabs, and just as it died, we had yet another feast.

[Calculating EXP gained…] (This includes previously gained EXP from smaller monsters)

[Kireina] gained 44.640.000.000 EXP!]

[LEVEL 098/250] [EXP 23.955.999.275.122/27.350.000.000.000] (Added!)

[Kireina] defeated the boss [Great Tundra Crystal Crab Tyrant Emperor]!]

[Kireina] completed several conditions]

[Great Overkill], [Great Overwhelm], [No Item Used], [Detect Weak Point], [Merciful Kill], [No Time to Retaliate], [Complete Annihilation], [Cooked Alive], [Effortless Victory]

[Therefore, [Kireina] have been granted with corresponding prizes]

[Kireina] obtained the item(s) [Ancient Reward Loot Box (A)] x2

[Kireina] obtained the item(s) [High Generous EXP Elixir (700.000.000.000) (Mythical+)] x1 (BONUS!) 

[Kireina] obtained the item(s) [Lesser Legendary Relic of the Great Tundra Crystal Crab Tyrant Emperor] x1 (SECRET BONUS!)

[Kireina] acquired the [Blessing of the Great Tundra Crystal Crab Tyrant Emperor] Skill!]

Another Secret Bonus, this time I got the 'Cooked Alive' condition/achievement…

We quickly had yet another feast, the meat of the crab was instantly boiled, it was soft, white, and creamy, delicious.

Although not comparable at all with Kaggoth's claws, they were rather good, and even better when served with boiled forest grains (rice) and other side dishes. Rimuru made croquet of them as well, they were crunchy outside and creamy inside.

I couldn't taste the carapace before as it was completely melted, but when it respawned, I managed to eat it, it tasted like a bitter and cold crystal, nothing special at all… oh, I got a few skills.

[Kireina] learned the following Skills]

[Tundra Crystal Crab Claws of Freezing Execution; Level 1] (Assimilated by Superior Skills!)

[Tundra Crystal Crab Great Exoskeleton; Level 1] (Assimilated by Superior Skills!)

It was already night outside of the dungeon, and some of the younglings were getting sleepy, so we decided to take a rest for now, inside a portable mansion that I brought. We could have perfectly gone back to the Empire, but I would have needed to stay in here if they wanted to easily teleport towards here, so my family decided to stay with me.
