BA DUM!

The sound of a heart beating rapidly echoed within the Miasmic Nest, the interior of the crystal caves trembling due to the loud reverberations. A large cocoon made of red and purple crystal was constantly glowing with a powerful Miasmic Aura.

This Aura slowly started to change, to mutate into something else, a dark red color, whose power corroded everything within its surroundings, both matter and even space itself.

Whatever was inside of the cocoon was developing rapidly, growing larger and stronger, evolving. From the cocoon, countless crystalline roots surged, spreading around the entire nest, and draining all of its crystalized power.

The being inside the cocoon could still hear the war happening outside, its strongest children braving it out against the invaders, beings from outside of this world, from outside of the world where it had been born.

And one of them included her, the goddess, creator of this dungeon. It had absorbed their essence, their power, the more they battled against their children, the more it was capable of imitating their strength and techniques.

It created foes which they wouldn't be able to easily defeat, so they could buy more time to complete their metamorphosis, into a higher being, one that could free itself from the shackles of this world.

Slowly, as it grew stronger and larger, something within it awakened, cracks, waves through space started to waver, to slowly begin to open up...

Crack...!

It started as a tiny crack, minuscule in size, so tiny most people wouldn't even notice it.

But it was a crack that he would gladly use to grant its children the strength to fight back and escape.

And to show the one that stole his powers that they can't just keep getting away with it without consequences.

From within the tiny crack, his presence emerged, a small, minuscule river of red essence entered the cocoon, accelerating its growth exponentially.

What would take hours to get done, suddenly was hastened to a few, couple minutes.

"Only a few more minutes, as long as you can buy that much..."

The crack started to grow slightly larger every second...

Crack, crack...!

And his influence began to spread further.

"To think she would nurture such a beautiful dungeon..." he laughed. "Unfortunately, your free membership has ended, girl. And I'll be taking what's mine."

Crack...

CRACK!

The crimson essence coming from the cracks mixed with an azure and purple energy coming from the miasma, taking the form of a demonic hand with sharp claws, gently petting the crystalline cocoon.

"Isn't that right, my child?"

(Sylphy's POV)

Ding!

[Congratulations! You and your party have defeated [Miasmic Creature (Tier 7-8)] x147!] [You earned 14.700.000 EXP!]

It was finally done, all the Miasmic Monsters were finally dead, the only thing left was the Nest, and its eerie aura couldn't make me feel any more uncomfortable. I noticed everyone had been leveling up steadily too, which is nice. I'll assess how much they leveled up later, but I think Celeste and Celica are close to max level.

"Well that was quite something, I never thought those monsters would have a Mimicry ability!" said Felicia. "This is fascinating, Sylphy, your miasmic monsters are sure talented!" "Talented?!" I asked. "I don't think they're talented, I think they're terrifying! And they're not mine either... They just appeared out of nowhere."

"It was a bit creepy how there were so many that looked like me!" said Celeste. "Even the spear techniques and magic, everything was the same... Yet they weren't too hard to beat! Am I that weak?!"

"It's not that, they simply imitate a fragment of our power," I said. "Also Celica's clones were very annoying."

"Yeah! They could copy all my golems, so weird!" Celica said. "But they weren't as cool as the real deal!"

"I quite agree with the terrifying part, seeing so many clones of myself was unnerving..." dad sighed, drinking an Energy Elixir to regain some of his stamina. "Anyways, shall we get going? The faster we end this, the quicker we get back home and rest."

"Yeah, let's go. Is everyone feeling alright?" I asked my friends.

"We're good," Ivy nodded, after eating some fruits I gave to her. "This new form is quite something though."

"I feel like I am overflowing with new draconic power!" Bark said.

I had given to them my Draconic Fruits, which allowed anybody to undergo some sort of pseudo Draconification, giving them higher stats and stronger skills.

"Are you sure nobody else want these fruits?" I wondered. "Celica, Celeste?"

"I kind of want to fight using my own strength..." said Celeste. "Relying even more on you than already... I think it would hurt my pride as a magician and warrior even more, sorry. I'll pass for now."

"I also agree with Celeste..." Celica said.

"It's fine! I mean, if you don't want, I can't force you," I smiled. "But at least keep these in your pockets. If things get too hard and painful, eat them to recover and also transform, got

it?"

"Sure!" Celeste nodded.

"Thank you Sylphy! You're always so thoughtful!" said Celica, smiling cutely.

Honestly Celica was a very stunningly beautiful girl, and very cute! I can see why my brother is head over heels for her.

"It's nothing, we're friends after all," I nodded with a smile. "Now, let's go, dad, master!"

"Yeah, let's do this!" said my father. "I can feel the monster's presence growing stronger by the second... You said these fruits can heal us if we ever get too wounded or tired?" "Yeah, they can also instantly recover your mana," I said. "So make sure to save it if things

get too hard."

"I did hear you used a similar item with your mother, was it a special type of leaf, back then?" Felicia wondered.

"Yeah, they're leaves made by Naturia, she also produces fruits too," I said. "I have also distributed them..."

The reason why these could directly heal things magic couldn't, was because they worked below the rules of the system, which were often absolute.

A fixed amount of health regenerated will always be a fixed amount of health regenerated, no matter if magic would work on it or not.

As we ran inside of the crystalline caves, more creatures suddenly started to appear, trying to

slow us down even more.

They were clones, but made of the cave's compositions, crystals.
