"Alright. I have officially beco the Master of this Dungeon, everybody. I will be the administrator of this place from now on."
"Congratulations, Raphael, Louise."
Upon my declaration, I went for a cozy embrace with everyone as they expressed their pleasure in our achievents. But we could not attain them all without the guidance of our wonderful parents.
"So, what are you going to do next, Raphael?"
Once we finished warming each other's bodies and souls, Mother asked that question.
"Hmm... We haven't checked the functions of this dungeon, haven't we? We cannot fully manage a thing if we did not study the thing itself." Saying that, I turned my back to them for to face the panel. "So let check what we got here."
Before anything else, I first summoned seats from my Inventory for us to sit on. However, only I took a seat. The others just stayed behind as they placed their hands on my shoulders.
Well, anyway, the screens before us apparently looked like computer monitors. The screen at the center, which was the biggest of all with dinsions of four by three feet, displayed sothing oddly similar to a computer desktop.
In the panel, there were icons that were neatly arranged on the left side. There was even solitaire. The wallpaper was just a plain light blue background, which was kind of boring to . Better change it later, if possible.
However, there were no keyboards or mice on the counter, so I began to think that this thing worked with touch-screen technology. Since it looked the sa as the computer I knew a long ti ago, I thrust my index finger and clicked the icon with the word [Dungeon] below it.
"Wow... Thankfully, it is a touch-screen panel, and it is pretty solid though."
I initially thought that the panel was sothing like everyone's status board, but it was not. It was actually a solid, translucent glass. My fingers even spread out when I applied more pressure.
Almost imdiately after pressing the icon, an application was fully flashed on the screen. The sudden change in screen brightness due to the appearance of the application even flinched the ladies on my back.
"What is that, Raphael?" Mother asked with cutesy, pressing her cheeks with mine.
"This is the program to access the dungeon, Mother. You know, to monitor the dungeon, to see its information, as well as the ability to modify it."
The program displayed on the panel was the application all about the dungeon. Within it were the features for managing the dungeon. Listed there were:
[Ho], which listed the dungeon's status and information. [Inbox(11)] for sending and receiving ssages between other conquered dungeons.
(There were already eleven ssages imdiately after opening the control panel...)
I thought newly conquered dungeons were being reported to other dungeons. But the na, or the size of the dungeon, was actually hidden from the others, so no one would know this was a 100-floored dungeon. Besides, it was still naless.
Now that I thought about it, there were even ssages flowing in the [Inbox] of the 20-floored dungeon we conquered several months ago. Many of them were welco ssages, but so contained malicious intent, such as submission to them. But we just ignored them since that dungeon was supposed to be our secret base.
Next on the list was the [Modify] feature. It was the ability to make alterations to the dungeon, such as the na and the mobs. The last one was [Perks], the privileges given to a dungeon depending on its size; the bigger the dungeon, the better the privileges.
"Alright, let's check this first."
Without any hesitation, I clicked [Perks] since I was pretty excited about this one. A 20-floored dungeon did not spark this level of excitent, in contrast to what this 100-floored one provided .
Upon clicking [Perks], a new interface appeared on the screen. From there, we could see the privileges that this dungeon had. Perks were the features that every dungeon had. They were the special features for managing the dungeon.
The 20-floored dungeon only had two perks: the Resurrection feature, a perk that every conquered dungeon had, and the Transfer Gates. It was a feature that was located on every Safe Areas that acted as a passageway to the next and previous Safe Areas.
If a 20-floored dungeon had two perks, that ant that there was a perk on every 10th floor of a dungeon. So hypothetically speaking, this dungeon is supposed to have ten perks, which was the exact thing that was flashed on the screen right now.
"So, this dungeon really has ten perks, huh? As expected."
Actually, I could just ask Akashvani about these since she knew almost everything. But it would definitely spoil , which could eventually ruin the mood, so I never asked, and that was why.
"What do you an "as expected," Raphael?"
Suddenly, Mom's seductive voice brushed my ear. She must have heard my words just now, so she was questioning about it. But there was no way I could just reveal the existence of our secret base.
"Well, every dungeon, no matter what the size, has the Resurrection feature, right? And only 20-floored dungeons or bigger have the Transfer Gates. So in theory, there should be a feature per 10th floor, which makes this 100-floored dungeon have ten of them, I think."
As I explained my made-up yet reasonable explanation, all eyes and ears were on . If I cannot tell the truth, just create a white lie.
"Hmm. Now that I think about it, that actually makes sense." Mom nodded, believing in my explanation. "That's a fair observation, Raphael."
"Did that clear up your mind, Mom?"
"I'm okay now, dear. Let mommy praise her boy~."
After saying those sweet words, Mom gently kissed my head. Upon satisfying Mom's curiosity, I turned to the screen to study the perks with gleaming enthusiasm.
It turned out that the perks were actually all cool, conveniently benefiting the managent of the dungeon. My excitent about this dungeon spiked, and now I wanted to test them firsthand. But before that, I had sothing to do first.
"Now then,"
Saying that, I exited the [Perks] before proceeding to the [Modify]. I then clicked [Set Dungeon Na] for obvious reasons.
Upon selecting the [Set Dungeon Na], the counter shone, and a small rectangular pale blue translucent panel surfaced from it. The panel had letters on it and was purposefully arranged in a particular order. But no matter how I looked at it, the panel was definitely a keyboard.
"What is that?" Mother looked close to the keyboard.
"It seems to be the device to write words."
"Is that so? But it feels weird. Why are the letters not even in the correct order?"
"...I have no idea about that, Mother."
The layout of the letters on the keyboard was in QWERTY, but in this world's language. However, I could not tell them the arrangent was based on the usage frequency of the letters, so I chose to remain silent.
"Well, whatever." Brushing aside the issue, I placed my hands on the keyboard. "Should "Raevender" suffice to be the na of this dungeon?"
