As everyone was waking up inside the portable manor, as usual, I stretched a bit outside of it while beating a few monsters by extending my purple hair as if they were sharp threads, slicing the monsters into pieces.
They were nothing much, but small fry attracted by my presence, I had left a barrier around the manor but because I walked out of it, the monsters instinctively moved towards me. Monsters in dungeons are usually incapable of feeling much fear, and if I do not unleash my entire aura, they will attack me despite our clear difference in strength.
Even after seeing how I easily sliced dozens of them, the giant Thunder Spiders and Flying Thunder Swordfishes still kept trying to get a hit on me.
I manipulated my Aura into tentacles with the tips of jaws, and devoured these pesky flies in a split of a second, walking towards the Boss Room while doing so.
I carefreely opened the door with my extended nails and walked in, glancing at the boss that appeared this time, which was the Five-Headed Thunder Eagle.
Extending its six wings over several meters, it glanced at me with scorn, it seemed to remember how it died last time by the younglings and kind of wanted some revenge.
Releasing an aura of lightning, it roared as it charged towards me like a bullet of thunder through the air.
"CRRYAAAA!"
I opened my crimson eyes wide holding a smile on my face due to the slight excitement of having a big monster coming to kill me, as I activated every Eye skill at my disposition.
Flash!
"CRYAAAAAAAAA!"
Rays of crimson, purple, pink, and dark light came out of my eyes as they were fired towards the Eagle. Its body was pierced completely by these two rays that came out of my eyes as it fell over the ground, motionless.
Boom!
"Oh? That was too fast…" I muttered.
Perhaps against gods, activating the effects of my eyes does not have much effect, but in mortal monsters, it is still quite lethal, especially when I charge every single effect and make the converge into a laser.
However, the power of this laser is not as strong as unleashing Chaos Attribute Spells such as Chaos Cannon, or convergence of hundreds of techniques while being transformed, so I mostly do not use it as commonly.
I glanced at the Eagle as I realized that it was still somehow breathing… it barely had some Health Points left, so I decided to shoot more lasers into its wings, talons and slowly kill it to get some proficiency in the skills, which seemed to work.
Ding!
[The Levels of the 'Eye-Related' Skills have increased!]
Now there might be two more levels before an evolution triggers, most likely through a dream as always. Now that I am slowly taking over the Dream Attribute of the Realm of Vida, my dreams are often very lucid, to an extent that I can manipulate them.
I usually visit my Dream World when I am dreaming, and take care of Bilili who is still developing his powers, teaching, and instructing him.
Talking about the dream world, the colonization of various planets has been slowly progressing, and I've managed to plant various types of plant species into some terraformed planets. The plants seem to be growing at a fast pace, and other materials could also be implanted in them to try out.
I have also infested various planets that only had small and unintelligent life with my Mana and Aura until they began to mutate and change their atmospheres, I did this as an experiment to see how could mana affect planets that were not used to it or that developed without it.
The results were rather surprising, the alien life forms that lived in there mutated and became monsters capable of breathing fire or manipulating water between other things, others surged with superhuman strength and became more voracious.
The natural plants also became either monsters or mutated plants containing different attributes. And the minerals, metals, and other types of materials in these planets became impregnated with mana, mutating into new types of materials.
Although I wanted to bring some of these monsters or materials outside of it, it seemed rather impossible as they would quickly dissipate into pink dust, it was still impossible to bring anything created in the Dream World to the 'real world'… yet.
I glanced at the corpse of the large five-headed eagle as I extended my aura over it and devoured it in an instant.
Satisfied with my skills leveling up, I walked back to my family where we had a large family breakfast, where many sweets were included, some of them were made with the Thunder Slimes, so there was a lot of candies and gelatin, which went excellently with whipped cream.
"I love this Thunder Slime Pudding! The whipped cream atop of it just goes so well with the citric taste of the pudding!��� said Vudia as she digs in with a little spoon made with her gold into a giant, twenty centimeters tall pudding mountain that Rimuru served to anyone that wanted sweets for breakfast.
"Vudia, you have become quite good at describing food, I see," said Brontes while eating Starlight Fruit Pie and black tea.
"I-I did, mama? Maybe mommy (Kireina) has taught me well about it! She always describes food very well; I want to be like her in that regard!" said Vudia.
"I see, Kireina does indeed describes food quite exaggeratedly now that I think about it," said Brontes while nodding.
"Well, we all have a passion for describing what we love! I love to describe the taste of blood, especially that of Kireina-sama… her blood is so rich, sweet, and thick! It has a fragrant and intoxicating smell that brings you to a paradise of flavor and pleasure…" said Alice while drinking a cup of my blood… she also eats other things, but always starts the day with my blood.
"That was a very wonderful description of the scrumptious taste of Kireina-sama's blood, Alice-sama," said Jonette at Alice's side while wearing a dignified expression, she was currently wearing butler clothes that were very tight on her whole figure. It seems that Jonette also drinks my blood for breakfast, although she was currently not eating anything.
"I agree, mommy's blood is pretty good," said Vudia while nodding.
"Yeah! I helped us a lot when we were growing up" said Amiphossia, who was still drinking her daily cup of my blood on the morning of every day.
"It is very nutritional, and it also makes our skin very smooth," said Aarae.
"Wait… Aarae-chan you're a Vampire?!" asked Ervin at Aarae's side, who had joined this trip and had been with Aarae since we began to explore the dungeon, similarly to Evan, he wouldn't participate much in conversations on the table, mostly due to being shy. However, it seems that Aarae's identity as a Vampire shocked him a bit.
"Well, yes… Ervin-san, my mother is a Vampire… couldn't you guess?" asked Aarae.
"I had no idea. Honestly, Aarae-chan, you do not have any characteristic of a Vampire at all, so it was a bit surprising… Well, perhaps your charming beauty might be related to that of your Vampire lineage then…" said Ervin, praising Aarae's beauty while apologizing for not realizing that he was a Vampire.
"Fufu… Oh my, don't say those things when we are having breakfast with my family…" said Aarae while blushing.
"I had stopped drinking mother's blood long ago, all of you should as well, you've already grown up…" said Ryo while crossing his arms.
"But drinking blood is essential! You drink monster and dragon blood, but mothers are still the superior choice" said Amiphossia.
"Yeah, Ryo. You're just a stubborn kid" laughed Valentia.
"Stubborn?! Kid?! I am not a stubborn nor a kid, you're younger than me, sister!" said Ryo glancing at Valentia.
"Younger than you? But you're so little… fufu" laughed Valentia while petting the angered Ryo.
"Don't worry Ryo Onii-chan, I will always be your little sister" said Yiksukesh with a sweet smile at Ryo's left side.
"Yiksukesh-chan you're older than me though…" muttered Ryo, remembering that Yiksukesh was thousands of years old.
"I-I am not old! In my species, being a few thousand years old is a mere youngling! I am a young maiden, your little sister!" said Yiksukesh as she used her sake tail popping from above her butt to entangle Ryo.
"Uaagghh! Okay, I get it! Stop! You are young! You are my little sister! So stop!" cried Ryo.
Yiksukesh nodded with a smile as she freed Ryo from her 'love'.
"Good," she said.
Hmm… it could be a bit worrying that Yiksukesh is doing this, but Ryo is so stubborn sometimes that I think it is fine for him to get something like this to happen to him sometimes.
After breakfast we quickly packed things up as we moved towards the staircase leading down below, reaching Floor 71. There are around thirty more floors to go before we finally reach the final boss, meaning three more bosses to go.
Reaching floor 71, we found that the environment was still quite similar to the previous ten floors, such as large jungles of Thunder Palms, a lot of Thunder Attribute monsters roaming everywhere, and dense areas packed with deadly vegetation.
However, alongside this, the environment had gained a slight 'boost', as there were now forests made with trees that contained leaves covered in red flames, ponds of boiling lava, Fire Attribute monsters roaming everywhere, and more.
The atmosphere had become hotter as well, and everyone was sweating a bit more than before, but aside from that, we did not feel much threat from this new and 'dangerous' place.
These floors were a complete mystery in the guidebook, and from this and onwards, there was not any more information. Aside from Wagyu and his party, no one else had completed this dungeon, it seemed.
The scorching blaze of this new environment came alongside many new monsters or variants of monsters previously seen.
There were giant spiders covered in orange and yellow fur that was as big as three meters tall, they breathed fire and could also unleash shocks of electricity, they were Giant Blazing Electric Demon Spiders, and seemed superior to the species of the previous floors, in exchange for becoming loners that didn't work in groups anymore.
There were also reptile-like monsters, giant beings that roamed around the dense jungles or slept below the boiling lava. They resembled dragons but had no wings, walking on four legs, their scale colors would vary from gold, orange, red and purple, and their heads were decorated with many horns and jewels that were also spread across their bodies, these draconic monsters unleashed intense blazing or zapping breaths, or both, had sharp claws that could tear apart most armors and fangs that could eat anything, they were named Thunder Firestorm Drakes and seemed to be one of the dominant monster species within these floors.
There were also variants of these Drakes, some of them had long, snake-like bodies and lacked any limbs, but still possessed the large head and deadly jaws and fangs of a dragon, these beings usually inhabited the large ponds of lava and waited for prey to pass by to predate on. They were named Thunder Firestorm Wyrms. Their large bodies could be used to entangle prey while using their jaws to devour prey slowly by taking chunks of them.
They usually predated over Thunder Firestorm Drakes, and vice versa, as the Thunder Firestorm Drakes would predate on the Thunder Firestorm Wyrms when they had the opportunity.
Lastly, there were many smaller subspecies of dragon-type monsters, such as smaller, lion-sized Thunder Firestorm Drakes or Wyrms, flying draconic birds with feathered wings and beaks, but scales across their bodies and the ability to breathe fire, and even Thunder Wyverns that flew around with their large wings and released shocks of electricity on their prey.
Dragon-type monsters were perhaps one of the strongest families of monsters, and it was clear as water that most adventurers would not stand a chance against them in such massive groups.
As we moved towards the boss room, the younglings worked incredibly well together as they took down these giant behemoths one by one. Meanwhile, their older siblings would take on them by themselves alone but sometimes would assist them when it was needed.
On my side, I released lasers from my eyes to snipe on flying monsters, grilling them alive and then snacking on them while walking around. The meat of all these monsters was delicious and rich in flavor, to be expected of Dragon-type monsters, honestly.
