Lewd Dungeon Master: This Orc Is Too Damn OP!

Unlike the dungeon’s surface 1st floor, 2nd floor was a very tall spire. Though spiral stairs stuck tight to the wall existed, it was so high you couldn’t even sense how many floors of stairs there were.

"Different from what I heard from Shax."

"Seems a bit higher."

I’d definitely heard it wasn’t that high, thinking it was about a 10-story building level. But now it seemed height matching Halphas dungeon’s rank in stacked floors.

"Did these bastards expand the dungeon more for defense after failing the first day’s attack?"

"Either because of us...or they were wary of that Phenex dungeon master."

Possible. Whether the seal’s power or the dungeon’s characteristics, they must’ve done something for the ceiling to be invisible at this height.

"Ugh, damn. We’d have to walk at least ten thousand steps to go up the stairs."

Might this staircase be Halphas’s driving force for surviving until now? You’d collapse exhausted while climbing, and having barely climbed, if you had to fight Halphas, I couldn’t sense how hard it’d be.

’Draining enemy stamina isn’t just injuring but draining endurance too. Learned something.’

Though the enemy, excellent. They could just fly up through the sky, so those with feet on the ground had no choice but to use stairs.

’Moreover, all ground forces are undead. Smart. Not for nothing a rank 30s dungeon master.’

Seemed much smarter than Forneus. Of course, not as smart as me conquering that dungeon.

"Frontal assault is the last choice. Lime! Begin!"

I ordered Lime and the Slime Dragons to gnaw the wall. The slimes immediately began eating the wall.

"How is it? Is there an outer wall? Is this inside the tower?"

Gurgle.

"Lime says no. Only dirt keeps coming out."

"As expected."

Halphas dungeon’s tower was a tall cave. A hole in the middle, stairs made to create a spire shape, and a giant prison making holes in the stair walls here and there for monsters to live.

"With everything all black like this, who can tell?" 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"I can’t see well either. Can’t distinguish."

"Most forces have black coloring. Even the forces guarding this 2nd floor."

I’d expected it from the moment Andras species heads were black, but Halphas had dyed the entire legion black.

As if black equaled himself, seeming to show off forces as if he existed wherever black touched.

"This is all mental illness. Maybe he made even the seal black?"

"Why does it sound lewd when you say it, though it’s just words?"

"Gremory, what Master’s saying is what you’re thinking."

"What did I think?"

"Um...wondering if the seal’s woman gets violated by Halphas daily so her nipples and pussy turned black?"

Caught. As expected, Lune’s intuition was very excellent befitting 4-star.

"...Ahem. Well, it’s possible, right? Shaitan’s attractive too, so no way Halphas didn’t touch Pride’s seal?"

"Who knows. Halphas only touches birds, so I don’t know. Unless Pride’s seal is birdman lineage."

"Tch."

I prayed to the sky. Please let Halphas or Halphas’s previous master not have touched the seal. So it’d come to me unopened.

Tension relaxed this much. To not make Unit 3’s sacrifice in vain, our legion had to definitely kill Halphas.

"Anyway, whether seal or Halphas, to reach the rooftop we have to keep climbing these shitty black stairs, right?"

"Right. Won’t climb easily though."

Caw- Caw-

A giant bird flock was flying around the tower’s center. Three main types.

Hundreds of all-black gargoyles.

Dozens of giant crows seeming like Andras species’ original type.

And one black hawk with a body made of bone and thin membrane instead of feathers.

’Is that the Corpse Hawk?’

Maybe because its eyes were sunken with holes, but it looked like it’d plant landmines well. Maybe landmines were installed throughout the stairs.

’It’s a dungeon of winged guys to begin with, so stairs existing is the trap itself.’

Like traps that collapse when stepped on, or traps made to look like stairs but fall below.

Above all, if we obediently climbed stairs, we’d have to face that massive avian monster group on the stairs. With overhead exposed, we were at a disadvantage.

’Then just change the battlefield.’

This battlefield’s MVP was Shax. Because Shax decided to become our legion’s member and opened all the information she knew, we discovered this easy method to conquer the tower.

"Best to reach the destination without fighting. Lime, combine!!"

Gurgle.

Lime lay down as if prostrating atop the Slime Dragon. Then two Slime Dragons clung left and right on top of Lime.

"Operation name Lime Driller!"

Gurgle!

"Dig up!!"

The Slime Dragons began rotating clockwise. And Lime operated between the Slime Dragons like driving, digging into the wall and beginning to eat the side part beside where stairs were attached.

Rumble rumble.

Speed wasn’t very fast with Unit 3 dead. Since it was ’shaving the wall’ to create a new slope path beside the stairs, the distance to climb was also long.

’But this is safe.’

Caw, caw!!

Gargoyles and giant crows urgently began flying down. But our surface team surface 2nd floor conquest unit’s personnel were just me, Lune, Gremory, and slimes.

Gurrgle!!

Big Slimes began digging into the ground beside the cylindrical path the Slime Dragons dug into. I entered a hole below the wall holding Lune and Gremory.

Clang---!!

A giant crow tried pecking us with a steel-like beak. Some tried pecking Slime Dragons making a slope beside the stairs, some tried pecking us hiding in holes expanding into that slope.

But the beak didn’t reach us. Didn’t reach our legion.

Thud---!

The beak targeting Lime stuck in the dirt wall. Lime ghost-like dug toward the hole’s outside—namely into the wall—and turned direction.

Clang--!!

Attacks targeting us didn’t work either. I stood in front, grabbed the giant crow’s beak up and down, and shut it.

"Where do you have those eyeballs attached?"

Crack!!

I put strength into the hand grabbing the beak and crumpled it. The giant crow flapped wings in agony.

"Hey you guys. If you make stairs this high."

I grabbed its beak with one hand and extended my other hand back, clenching a fist.

"You should think of making a handicap-accessible path, you bird-brains----!!"

Thwack.

My fist embedded in the giant crow’s crown. The first giant crow collapsed to the floor without any resistance.

"A dungeon that’ll become mine anyway!"

I shouted toward the ceiling.

"I’ll remodel it for my convenience--!!"

I’d take the construction fee in magic stones, the seal, and Halphas’s life.

***

[At that time, Halphas Legion Basement 1st Floor.]

Splash, splash.

Cockatrices were paddling on the shallow lake, moving wings.

Mostly cockatrices who’d entered Andras’s dungeon in the attack force with Shax then died, Halphas had revived cockatrices during the three days of stopped attacks and deployed them underground.

Their given mission was rear disruption.

Wait underground, then the moment orders drop, immediately rush to the surface, cross the portal, infiltrate enemy territory, and forcibly steal the seal—that special order was given.

Gurgle.

Though the cockatrices lost Shax who could be called their leader, fortunately one more executive-class monster remained to lead them.

"Boss!"

A large seagull that rushed from the portal connected to the surface crossed the lake with flapping. On the lake’s center island, a blue-feathered monster bird crouched.

"Boss! Big trouble! Enemy’s first wave climbed up!"

"...Don’t talk if possible."

"Why?!"

"Talk after evolving. After your vocal cords completely evolve."

The blue-feathered monster bird slowly spread its wings.

Bearing the alias [Thunder Lord], it resembled cockatrices but was quite different. Body size three times bigger than cockatrices, and feathers all over its body had sharp tips as if electricity would burst out.

"Contact from the seal...indeed. That Andras bastard, joined hands with humans? Utterly disgusting."

"They’re using divine power too!"

"Don’t talk."

Thunder Lord shot a feather into the seagull monster bird’s mouth. The crackling feather embedded in the seagull monster bird’s mouth.

"Keeee!"

"Tch. Why did Shax get captured as hostage making such a thing vice-commander? You cockatrices! Isn’t it because you’re incompetent that Shax got captured!"

Thunder Lord shouted at the cockatrices floating on the lake. Strictly speaking, Shax’s carelessness was the biggest cause of defeat, but the disgrace of all cockatrices being killed by the enemy and revived doesn’t disappear.

"Damn bastards! Rise! We break through the fortress at full sprint!"

"Boss! Enemy!"

"I said don’t talk...hm?"

Step, step.

The entrance to the portal going from basement 1st floor to surface 1st floor. A black-robed woman stood blocking the entrance. The hood the woman wore on her head had a yellow beak.

"You...Shax...?"

"Yes, long time no see. Uncle Blue."

Shax removed her hood. At the ’human appearance’ not shown before the cockatrices, the cockatrices fell into confusion.

"Princess is in human form!"

"No way! Lord Halphas laid an egg with a human?!"

"Fake! It’s fake!"

The cockatrices fell into confusion. They were forces that despised humanoids and insisted on ’bird’ form. But Shax, who was clearly in bird form, was actually in human form? A humanoid demon?

"Captain!!"

"...Gugh."

Thunder Lord’s head got complicated. Too many complex problems stacked up to explain Shax’s birth background to the chicken-brains filling the surroundings. Not something to discuss in front of others to begin with.

Shax’s existence was Halphas’s mistake and disgrace. Thunder Lord had to quickly evade the situation.

"...This bitch killed Shax and stole Shax’s name!!"

"Wow."

Shax opened her mouth wide with a dumbfounded face. The cockatrices alternating between Thunder Lord and Shax squawked while flapping wings.

"Right! That appearance wasn’t it to begin with! Lady Shax has a jar-like appearance!"

"But the voice is the same?"

"Idiot, she must’ve done something!"

"That’s right! That’s someone deceiving Shax! Let’s eliminate that one who stole the name first!!"

Crackle!

Thunder Lord began emitting electricity from its body. The cockatrices also spread wings and began swimming the lake.

"...I knew it’d be like this."

"See. I told you they’re not ones to resolve through dialogue."

From behind Shax, Orc Paladin Galahad drew his sword and stood in front.

"What were you trying to do persuading these guys?"

"...If all these guys became my side, my position in the legion would strengthen. Look at Kimaris—vice-captain with all the dullahans."

"Indeed. You need your own unit. Then they’re the worst. They have no elements to draw the Legion Commander’s interest."

Splash, splash!

The cockatrices began charging, lifting legs. Galahad threw off his robe left and right and pulled down his pants.

"Kyoooot?!?!"

The cockatrices stopped in their tracks at the shocking scene. The holy sword attached to the orc’s lower body was sparkling silver.

"I’ll do as planned. I’ll kill them all."

"...I’ll participate."

Shax placed her hand on Galahad’s back. Then mana flowing from Shax’s body began gathering toward Galahad’s lower body.

"This is?"

"...I applied what I saw the Legion Commander, Lady Luna, and Lady Lune do. Low-grade sexual magic learned by side-glancing, but...there won’t be a water shortage."

"You seem to know what I’ll do."

"...If you’re in this legion, you learn roughly even if you don’t want to."

"Hehe. Quick on the uptake."

Galahad slightly spread his legs left and right and grabbed his holy sword.

"The Legion Commander’s holy sword has the property of melting mana. Same for me, but I differ from the Legion Commander. I...."

A subtle light began bursting from Galahad’s hand.

"Mine has divine power."

Tap tap tap tap.

Whoooosh-----

Silver mist gradually began rising from the lake.
