My Dungeon Life: Rise of the Slave Harem-Chapter 1674
“You did it… you released that horrible spell. You’ve killed… millions.” Calypso glared hatefully. “Humans were the only ones who died. Just as many fey perished in the aftermath. More will die when the winter comes.”
It was another scene. It was hard to tell where they were, but Calypso was once again facing the fey king.
“Hahaha… when you didn’t come back, you forced my hand.”
“You can’t possibly be saying this is my fault,” Calypso responded.
“The fey had no choice. The ability of humans to resurrect is too great. Our only option was to destroy them in such a way that they wouldn’t be able to resurrect their way out of it. Even if they had connections to every person who died, they wouldn’t be able to resurrect a quarter of them before the time limit is passed. Resurrection is truly a hateful ability.”
“Your children can be resurrected,” Calypso responded defiantly.
“Yes, the noble line is safe, but you don’t plan to become the mother of all fey, do you?”
“…”
It seemed that the king had never figured out Calypso’s deception. She was a human, so the nobles should be half-fey. It seemed like it’d be a pretty easy thing to discover. Maybe, in some of the memories, she wasn’t showing me, there was an explanation for that as well. I seemed to recall her using some kind of magic to prevent the king from having any more children.
This was likely done in retaliation. It fit Calypso’s character perfectly that she would prevent him from ever having any more kids to punish him for forcing himself on her. This was why the yellow-haired fey eventually became synonymous with the noble line. It wouldn’t be so hard to believe similar magic prevented the king from realizing these children were impure.

“We will never stop this war. We will never back down. Until the humans give up the ability to resurrect, there can never be peace between us.”
“Why have you contacted me?”
“I wish to propose a way to end the war.”
“You…”
“It’s true! I had hoped that the destruction of that dungeon would have ended the human resurrection cycle, but it appears that the lore was being protected by its master.”
“Lore?” She looked a bit interested.
“The lore that brought humans to this world, the original human dungeon, it contained a spark of humanity’s origin in it. If we can get the core from its master, we can finally remove resurrection from the equation.”
“Master… what Master?”
“You already know who it is…”
“N-no!”
“Perhaps I should let you know a secret.”
“Wh-what?”
He leaned closed to her. “The &*^(&^ ^&**&^% %^%&^% (*&((&*.”
“No!”
“If you don’t help me do this, then you’ve given me no choice!”
Calypso’s mouth opened and closed a few times. It was clear that she was facing indecision. However, I had already seen enough of the dungeon to know how this part went.
Flicker.
“My love, the human core isn’t safe. I’ve discovered that the fey knows its whereabouts. We have to fetch it and move it before they go after it. Please, we have to go.”
“Humanities already on the run. They destroyed our country, and kill 90% of our people. When will the fey cease this carnage?”
“I… don’t know.” Calypso looked away, hiding the guilt on her face. “Hopefully, soon.”
