Today as I was taking a bath, I began to think about my inner realms, and glanced back at my Fragmented Divine Realm…

Chaos after chaos, too many colors to remember, it was just, as usual, I fear that if I invite gods inside, they might end up having a hard time accommodating themselves.

Remembering Maeralya's Divine Realm, it was very calm and beautiful… hopefully, when I reach max level and become a Living Deity, a better Divine Realm shows up, or the Fragmented one 'repairs' itself to an extent… though it is very unlikely considering some things.

I had finished exploring the Dream Attribute Dungeon inside of my Inner Realm: Soul World a few days ago already, but it seems that I never acquired the 'prizes' and other things that are usually delivered after defeating a boss… but it seems that those other than me that defeat bosses do acquire reward boxes and such, of course of lower quality than anything I have.

I wondered why was that when I can easily acquire these when I go to other dungeons… could it be that after the dungeon becomes mine, I cannot get the rewards? So dungeons that I create on my own will never give me such rewards by killing the monsters inside… interesting.

I didn't want to ask for my wives or children to give me their prizes, as they deserved them, and I was content with what I had, so I decided to ask the gods about such miscellaneous things after I took the bath.

This time, Agatheina answered my call more eagerly than on other days.

"Ah! Kireina-sama! Is there anything you need?" asked Agatheina with a pleasant voice.

I decided to ask Agatheina about the whole dungeon thing. She seemed to be also with Maeralya, Marnet, Morpheus, and other gods, seemingly drinking tea.

"Oh? About dungeons… The dungeon that you created, the Dream Attribute Dungeon in your Soul World, it does not net prizes?" asked Agatheina.

"It does net prizes for anyone other than me. Is it because I originally made it?" I asked.

"Indeed, Kireina-sama. Dungeons usually don't give any reward to us, the owners… not like any of such rewards would be of much use to us gods, most of the mortal's valuable things become insignificant to us… but Kireina-sama can still make use of such things! Of course, that must be the case of why you cannot get any more rewards through the system, though you can still acquire the dropped items by monsters, right?" asked Agatheina.

"Indeed, I suppose those are universal, but even beating the last boss has low chances of giving good loot, I haven't acquired anything of Legendary Rank, so most of the other things were just distributed through my family or my citizens," I said.

"I see… well, you also acquired the rewards from the previously conquered dungeons that you took over from some of the gods, right? But it seems that it was only when the dungeon was not yours yet… I do not know if you could get or not system rewards after taking over the dungeon, but is unlikely that such a case will ever happen because you need to conquer the dungeon to take over it, which also needs you to defeat the boss and then… acquire the system rewards, I suppose" said Agatheina… she is very knowledgeable about all of this.

"I see… I will probably go and get some dungeons, Nyzzet's Dungeon, Maeralya, and Marnet's… I hope that Maeralya and Marnet do not have some secret tribes living inside your dungeons" I said.

"Is Kireina-sama referring to me?" asked Morpheus.

"Secret tribes? Yeah there are a few of my children living in there, that preferred to not be involved with the outside world," asked Maeralya.

"Oh, like Morpheus! Well, we cannot stop our children from wandering in the dungeons, some tribes found peace inside of them, so if you met with them, please bring them with you" said Marnet.

"Err… my dungeon is a large labyrinth-type dungeon, lacking any kind of large-scale biome unlike Maeralya-sama, Morpheus-sama, or Marnet-sama, so there are not any of my children living in there as of now. But there are some intelligent monsters such as Lizardmen or Dragons that had created small tribes or even civilizations… I cannot inspect them in detail, so I'll leave it to Kireina-sama's judgment to kill them or bring them with you" said Nyzzet.

"I see… so which one should I go first? I kind of want to explore some for now before going to the Dark Steppes, if possible, all of them" I said.

The gods discussed all around but none of them could decide who to be first, at the end I decided to go to Nyzzet's dungeon… I had explored this dungeon before and it had a unique mechanism that changed floors constantly, sending the party to different biomes all the time.

However, Nyzzet was willing to change this mechanic so I can have a more linear exploration, and even open up more stairs to go directly to the last boss or the secret boss if I desired.

I thought that there was not much point in exploring a dungeon that was not made up of biomes if it was filled with mostly weak monsters, aside from the lowest floors that had wild Thunder Dragons as a common monster.

It was still quite early in the day, so I decided to pack things up and invite my family to a quick trip there, we have not come back to the Vast Plains in some time, and the Evergreen Town that surrounded the dungeon.

"Mommy, are we are going on an adventure again? About time!" said Vudia.

"It will be a short one, my dear. But let us enjoy it nonetheless" I said.

"A new dungeon!" said Ailine.

"Well, it is not really new, we explored it before, didn't we?" asked Ryo.

Nesiphae nodded.

"Indeed, we explored it before when we went to the Vast Plains and had that big feast of humans," said Nesiphae nonchalantly.

"Oh, that time! We were still newborns, I think" said Aarae.

"Right~ we explored it a bit though," said Valentia.

"Now that all the big tribes were moved to the Empire, I wonder if new ones had formed? Well, it hasn't even been a year, so I don't think they would move so fast…" said Altani, thinking about her older days as a nomad's tribe leader.

As we had installed teleportation gates towards Evergreen Town, as it was now a part of my Empire, we traveled there quite fast, reaching the entrance of the town, we came across a large and paved street, with various new buildings that weren't here when we came for the first time.

The sky was clear blue, without any cloud at all, clear as water. There was the sun shining brightly atop the sky, and a small and cold breeze caressed our skin from time to time.

The town had gone through many changes and it now resembled a small city, there were mostly Chaos Humans, which were the original humans that inhabited this place that converted into Chaos Humans after my blessings and influence spreading towards here… alongside the apostles of my religion.

Today was a peaceful day and adventurer parties gathering all around, exchanging monster materials for money, dining in the countless restaurants, or having a relaxing day with their friends or family.

The moment we appeared through the gate, we were rained with stares, surprised stares, mostly of people that could not believe who we were.

"I-Is that…?!"

"Kireina-sama! Our Goddess!"

"Goddess-sama has blessed us today with her presence?"

"Ah… and her entire family is here too!"

"Are they… going to explore the dungeon?"

"Perhaps goddess-sama and her family will conquer it once and for all"

Many people approached us, offering us their prayers, gifts, and many other things, I could not simply ignore them… so I decided to act a bit and reward them for their strong faith.

"My children, thanks for your prayers, you are all blessed. Blessings for all you," I said, releasing pink smoke and white light from my hands, making it cover the people, these were small buffs that could last for over a week.

The people that went towards us received my 'blessings' and immediately felt stronger and vigorous, some people that had wounds or scars had them instantly healed, and everyone seemed even strongly fascinated by us… but as my presence was 'too strong', they always kept their distance.

Various children also approached us as I patted their heads and granted them small gifts such as accessories or even money or food if they wanted candy.

All of my citizens were all well-fed so, food wasn't a necessity, and as long as they worked in the dungeon, there wouldn't be problems with money either, most people only approached me to met me in person and receive either my blessings or just a bit of my motherly love.

"Oh? This place has gone through some improvements, it seems… is it because Honey used her Construction System to improve over this small town and made it into a proper city?" asked Zehe.

"Indeed, I set some Slime Clones into it, alongside various tireless Undead soldiers' hat could construct the buildings in a few hours," I said.

"Mama, many people here!" said Nirah as she glanced around the surroundings, there was an abnormal amount of people following us around.

"Hm… this is a bit annoying… Let us try this then…" I said, as I gathered my family and released semi-transparent illusion smoke that slowly made the people lose perception of us, something similar to a stealth skill.

The people slowly forgot about us as they continued where they left their daily life activities.

"Oh, they went away… Mommy has many incredible powers…" said Belle, noticing what I did.

"My dear Belle, you're probably even more incredible than your mother… Through this dungeon it will be time for you to develop your abilities better by fighting slightly stronger monsters… though you could also visit the dungeon at home, this one is more fun to explore in my opinion," I said.

"Seems like fun, mommy! But wouldn't it be a bit troublesome on how the dungeon works?" asked Belle.

"Ah, don't worry my baby, there is no problem in that regard, you'll see, we won't even need Nyzzet's help," I said, as we finally reached the dungeon entrance and we entered through it, going down the purple-brick stairs.

This dungeon was a 'labyrinth-type' dungeon, which does not have large-scale biomes and it is mostly a sole structure, similar to the Forsaken Labyrinth.

As we reached the first floor and my children had some fun beating to death a few monsters that were as weak as flies, Nyzzet appeared to greet us on his ethereal projection form.

"Welcome back to my Dungeon, Kireina-sama… well, would you and your family want me to create a direct route down below?" asked Nyzzet with a humble tone of voice.

"Ah, it is not necessary, I can manipulate this Labyrinth like this," I said, as I waved my hands and used the 'Labyrinth Sovereign Magic' spells 'Dungeon Area Assimilation and Manipulation' and the 'Labyrinth Maintenance', which gave me the ability to mold the dungeon's walls, ceilings, and rooms as if they were mud.

"W-What?!"

Nyzzet seemed surprised by my power, he did not seem to know that I was capable of controlling the dungeons that I stepped in. Although it was not an all-powerful manipulation, it did let me open holes leading to the next floor while skipping mostly everything.

"Yeah, so don't worry about us," I said, sending Nyzzet away.

"V-Very well, Kireina-sama…" muttered Nyzzet as his ethereal projection disappeared.

"It seems that the big dragon didn't know about Mommy's awesomeness!" said Ailine, chuckling.

Nyzzet expression when he became in disbelief was quite funny, and many of my children were laughing at the poor dragon god.

As we continued through the floor, we reached the area that would lead us to another random floor, but I decided to take over this entire area and its structure and mold it as a large staircase that led down to the last floor.

As we went through the stair, we also entered the small floors in between, filled with small biomes that only affected the inside but did not create large areas such as Morpheus's dungeon.

There were floors filled with saltwater ponds, coral forests, and flying aquatic monsters, floors filled with snow and ice-filled with fluffy monsters or ice elementals, and floors filled with dirt and jungle trees growing everywhere, with giant monkeys and rodents making their home in there.

After half an hour of a carefree trip, while slaying weak monsters, we reached the tenth floor where the first boss was waiting for us.

Usually, we would be lead randomly through all these floors and fight a random boss, but like this, we could select to fight it or not.

My children wanted to give it a go, so I let them jump out of the stairs as the rest of us followed them from behind.
