The next day, Enigma, Jade, Hamura, Castitas, Alfredo, Zhou Mingye and Kris stood below a cave. This was a simple line-up for a dungeon, or rather, this was the first ti he saw one since they weren't there within the Middle Realm, nor the Capital City.
"Do we walk in and we will be sent sowhere new, papa?" Jade asked in perplexity. Alfredo wanted to gain points with her and willingly explained things to her.
"Dungeons are ford from the God's Divine Wills. Unlike a domain, it is ford after the birth of every new god, using the Realm Will's power to generate a unique pocket dinsion with that said god's Law. And this pocket dinsion connects itself to the material worlds."
"Each dungeon will be rated according to the strength of the strongest person, the limit being the strength of the God it was based on. And depending on the God's level, the dungeon will have a certain number of floors to be conquered."
"This one belongs to the god of earth and springs it seems, a peak High God. With the Lord's power, it should be easy for you to clear it in one go." Alfredo explained fluently without stuttering one bit, while flattering Enigma casually.
They still thought that Enigma was a Transcendental God. Enigma nodded in understanding, Jade also nodded, but her words ant the literal opposite of her actions.
"Papa, Jade doesn't understand." She said without a change of expression. Alfredo's complexion turned pale as he expected Enigma to reprimand him in order to sooth his daughter.
Gods were such temperantal beings. But Enigma just patted her head with a smile and nodded at Alfredo lightly, "Thanks, that helped quite a lot."
With that said, he entered the cave with Jade happily skipping after him. Alfredo, and Zhou Mingye, who were still skeptical about Enigma's attitude compared to other gods were once again surprised.
Kris was a man who, like Enigma, felt like showing overly different emotions, expressions and feelings was tiring. But unlike Enigma, he didn't normal solve everything with a smile, but an idle expression of boredom.
He and the simple Castitas obediently followed right after Enigma. Alfredo and Zhou Mingye also hurriedly followed after them, right after they got back to their senses.
But the mont they got in, they were transported towards a mountainous area, large mountains reaching through the skies, with beautiful and ethereal springs below, that seed heavenly.
"Papa, what now?" Jade asked. This ti around, Alfredo didn't say anything, Zhou Mingye also kept quiet. They all turned to Enigma to hear from him.
"Don't look at , I'm clueless about this place. Never entered a dungeon before." And Enigma responded as such, with a shrug of his shoulders and a helpless smile. What did these think I was, a Transcendental God? He thought to himself as a joke.
"...."
But Alfredo and Zhou Mingye took those words in another perspective. Nowadays, most vessel gods or gods have ascended through succeeding in clearing a dungeon, and having the God owning it take them in or introduce them to other gods.
But of course, those who were already gods before the era of dungeons, were the ones doing the job of accepting more gods. They were also so strong that, they probably never entered a dungeon before.
They believed Enigma to belong to that category of people. Kris also had such a thought, and now, his guess that Enigma was a more ancient Transcendental God that just woke up, was getting clearer and clearer in his mind.
"Allow to explain, Lord. Every minor realm of an Minor God increases a dungeon by 1 floor, a Major God by 2 floors, a High God by 5 floors and that of a Transcendental God increases them by 10 floors. And each floor is an independent world aligned with the God's law, connected to the pocket dinsion of the dungeon."
"The dungeons with a 72 floors belong to the strongest Transcendentals of our ti. And this one, must have at most 32 floors to it, hence 32 worlds to be explored." Zhou Mingye said after clearing his throat, then he continued,
"The dungeons are divided into levels per 10 floors. Floor 1 to 10 are considered level 1, from 11 to 20 are level 2, so on and so on. These applies to all Gods, of varying levels and statue."
"Each level has the sa geographical features, hence the sa worlds but parallel in nature,and ten waves of monster attacks. Then the final trial would be to defeat the level 1 guardian of floor ten, a monster born out of the complete Providence of all ten worlds, which is where the Realm Will will give us rewards." He said, and Enigma nodded to the new information he obtained.
"So, to verify, what levels are each world? Small worlds? Large worlds? Pri worlds? Or the more unbelievable, Great worlds?" He asked, and the one to reply was Alfredo.
"My Lord, I believe that each world rank depends on the League of the Gods. From those considered Origin Gods (Minor, Major and High), they all have Small worlds. And those considered Cosmic Gods (Transcendental, Elder and Cosmological) all have their worlds as Large worlds."
"This ans that, for a Transcendental God, even the first floor, will be elevated into a Large world. And as for the more illusory Supre Gods, I heard that, they're worlds are considered Pri worlds." He said, and Enigma nodded once more.
He easily understood the words given to him. But to understand how great of a deal it was, one had to know that Small worlds were worlds that could contain lower end systems within it.
For example, a planet connected to Hell, Heaven and the Spirit World. All three if those were Realms beyond Reality, yet to a Small world, they were nothing but re extensions. Destroying that world, ant destroying those Realms as well. Realms capable of housing countless Origin Gods within.
Let alone the Large worlds, or the Pri worlds. The were the sa as the Small worlds, but being able to hold more powerful Realms. Like the Divine Realm for the forr, and the Abyss for the latter. Realms capable of housing even Cosmic and Supre Gods.
'So, does conquering a dungeon qualify as destroying that world?' He thought to himself, the question directed to the system.
"Not necessarily so. At least, not at this current tiline, where everything is just... completely unstable and sealed up. These worlds are fake after all, just sub constructs made out of Reiki and a bit of Divinity"
'You an sealed by the Ancient Gods, right? They seed to have limited the progress of the Great Worlds... afraid of giving entry to their creations.' Enigma agreed, but had to drop that matter for now because of his exploration.
"Lord, look, the first wave is coming." Castitas exclaid as a group of rock monsters rushed over towards them. Each with the presence of various leveled Deities.
The strongest was even a demigod.
"Hm, I see." Enigma nodded to himself, then turned to Jade. "Jade dear, why don't you go there and show papa what you've learned so far, by yourself?"
"Hmm~ Yes, Jade will show papa how strong she is!!!" Jade excitedly agreed after a brief thought, then rushed over with Hamura in her bossom.
The four n were startled and look ahead in surprise. They were wondering if Enigma was crazy or insane. But he wasn't, he just wanted to learn more about the so called second generation of true gods.
"My lord, isn't this...!!!" Kris wanted to say sothing but held back the mont Jade summoned multiple bone spikes from her body, hurling them towards the rock monsters.
Those that were between Lesser Deity and High Deity were crushed by the bones and turned to dust. While those that were Deity Lord's had their bodies cracked up.
Deity Kings were pushed back quite a bit and the Demigod was unaffected. This show of power surprised the four n, even Castitas was flabbergasted and awed.
"Muu... papa, again!!!" Shouted the little silver-black haired princess, her golden eyes shining brightly with determination. She had to impress her father one way or another.
She lightly kicked the floor, imdiately vanishing out of sight of the four n, surprising them once again with her sheer speed. They could not see her at all, but Enigma could see her clearly though.
Little Jade appeared above the Deities, released more Spear bones to rain on the remaining Deities. She then moved once again, appearing behind them, repeating the process.
Bang!! Bang!! Bang!!
Bang!! Bang!! Bang!!
The Deity Lords were finally shattered and the Deity King's were now cracked up badly. They were not even given a chance to use their skills or might, before they were pressed down by her. Not even their Divine power was riled up!!
But even after destroying the Deity King's by imbueding Reiki onto the bones, the Demigod was only cracked up and not defeated. This got the little lady conflicted and stressed.
"Papa... papa..." She turned back with teary eyes, but Enigma avoided her wronged expression and muttured, "Don't act spoiled. You've been doing fine all by yourself, haven't you? Finish up what you started." He whispered to himself.
And she might not have heard him, but she got the ssage. She pouted and angrily looked at the Demigod rock monster, causing chills to run down its spine despite being an inanimate being.
The four n around him also heard him clearly and couldn't help but turn pale. She was only three years old, and she was acting spoiled by wanting help in defeating a demigod?
What was she? A full-fledged goddess? They all thought. The image of Enigma in their minds was getting even more unfathomable by the mont... and terrifying.
"...Hamura!!!" Jade cried out as she knew that it would take a long ti to kill the demigod, or possibly never if it fought back. Thus, she called out for back.
The teddy bear she hugged on her chest, with its head drooping down suddenly jerked awake. It felt its master's intent and struggled out of her embrace. Jade didn't hold it back any longer and let it go, dropping it down gently.
"Hey, Jade don't..." Enigma was about to stop her, but then did not finish his words. He was also curious what Hamura could do, even though he knew it was a terrifying Transcendental artifact right now.
Huge intensity of Reiki gathered around the doll, seeping out to the environnt as if tongues of flas trying to taste the air around it. The Reiki then warped to green and gathered around its hand.
Then the hand slowly turned ethereal white, then cyan. The hand was completely spiritual, as if completely made out of pure Reiki itself, even twisting space around it. But this wasn't just Reiki, but Tensei Reiki, a sub power of Reiki made specifically by Hamura.
"Hamura..?" Jade's eyes slowly widen as she felt the power the doll manifest to be unfathomable, just like her father's. She didn't have the system to appraise it, but she automatically knew it's Abilities as her master.
The next mont, she was excited and hurriedly commanded, afraid that such a form would waste Hamura's energy, "Hamura, Go Go Gooooo!!!"
Boom!!!
And Hamura obliged, as with a powerful kick off the ground, shattering the earth with the force exerted, it flew towards the demigod earth golem, instantly appearing before it.
The golem was not flustered and threw a direct punch to intercept the doll. But Hamura had power the likes Origins could not fathom, power expected of an artifact that causes Ruin with its re presence.
The cyan spiritual punch powerfully landed on the golem's chest before it could even react by throwing its punch. But Hamura's punch did not piece through it.
Instead, the golem and the mountains behind it were encompassed within a cyan-white light, that brought everything within into complete ruin, then to obliteration, and finally, to dust.
