Chapter 469 Cap 467: Conversation With Vanessa(Chapter Preview)
The next morning everyone leaves the inn and heads back to the carriage leaving this town, after we leave town I step out of Nix’s shadow.
So I open a Dungeon gate where Nix and I entered going straight to the city floor, then we go straight to the mansion.
Once there I check the status of all the slaves, including the children, while everyone is sleeping.
After that I let Nix ask the questions we chose, I also let Lilith have a look at them, unfortunately, it looks like there were some criminals among them.
From the horrible titles they had and the strong Aura of vengeance directed at them by innocent people according to what Lilith said, they didn’t even need to go through Nix’s interrogation.
These people were killed regardless of their age or gender, that’s why I couldn’t release criminals in the world, I wouldn’t allow them to stay inside the Dungeon either, so I just had to kill them.
After Nix finished the interrogation, I discovered those who were prejudiced against other races, so I set them aside to be thrown out once we reached the port city.
Those who didn’t have particularly horrible titles, who had almost no revenge directed at them, and who had no prejudice against other races, those would be given the option to stay in the Dungeon if they so choose.
It seems that of the people who have the chance to stay in the Dungeon, only half wanted to stay, less than I thought.
For these people, I left it to Vanessa and Lilian to educate them about things and see if these people will adapt to this place before telling them where they really are.
Those who want to go out and be free will be freed in the port city and will be on their own after being free if they are adults, children will be taken to the doors of the first orphanage they find.
Those who decided to stay in the Dungeon were 18 people, among them there are people of several different races, they will all be included in the Dungeon if their adaptation goes well, I’ll hear what Vanessa and Lilian have to say after a week.
It will still take us several days to get to the port city Yrima, in the meantime, I will let the others deal with the people who wish to stay in the Dungeon, in the meantime, I will retrain my Aura so that I can gain better control over it.
———-
As the days went by, people who wanted to be free were getting annoyed and suspicious because we weren’t freeing them, some even tried to run away, they don’t know they are inside a Dungeon, but Those who were adventurers in the past or who have some study were able to assume that they are in an isolated space separated from normal reality because of the only sun in the sky.
They have no escape from this place, they are not registered on any of the floors of the Dungeon, so they will have to go through every floor if they want to get out of here, not to mention they will have to escape the people of the Dungeon where the weak hands have Grade strength -A.
Everyone at Dungeon learned that only by being strong can they defend what they love, this is something that was born in the mountain range and is still being carried along with everyone who lives here, so even those who won’t participate in combat in their professions yet participate in daily training every day.
If one day I have to defend this place, I know that every person here is prepared to fight, that’s something they’re proud to say, that kind of mentality is garlic I approve of because it will keep this city a strong place no matter how long pass.
After a week I went to talk to Vanessa to find out how the possible new residents are doing, I found her inside the Temple where the Gods are going to be worshipped, there was still a lack of statues for the Gods, but Vanessa keeps saying that we don’t need to worry about that for that when the time is right the statues of the Gods will be here.
In a room inside the temple where the decoration was simple but beautiful in its simplicity, I was facing Lilian sitting on very comfortable sofas.
“I haven’t seen you much lately, how have you been, Lilian?” (I)
“I’ve been very busy, especially since the holy son brought in these new people.” (Lilian)
“I have been trying to teach about the Blood Goddess and the various neutral Gods to the Dungeoneers by order of Priestess Vanessa.” (Lilian)
“Speaking of her, where is she now? She’s the one who asked me to meet her here.” (I)
“Sorry I’m late, Dad.” (Vanessa)
“I overslept today.” (Vanessa)
“Welcome, Priestess.” (Lilian)
“Alright, apart from my daily training I have nothing else to do.” (I)
When I was starting to talk to Lilian, my daughter arrives with dark circles on her face, I didn’t even know Vampires could have dark circles.
“Father, before I say anything else, I have to demand that you find more Priests for this Temple, I just can’t keep dealing with all this work.” (Vanessa)
“How do you want me to do this? I don’t even know where to find these Priests.” (I)
“I’ll help with that, but I need at least one leading Priest for each God and five servants for each of those Priests.” (Vanessa)
“I will need your help with this, after many prayers I finally got my answer from Goddess Selene.” (Vanessa) 𝚋𝚎dno𝚟𝚎l.n𝚎𝚝
“Fine I’ll help, but are you going to tell me more about this?” (I)
“Once we’re in the ocean I talk about it, things should calm down by then.” (Vanessa)
“But let’s get down to business now to get this over with and get back to sleep.” (Vanessa)
“We can always do that later if you’re tired.” (I)
“I don’t have the luxury of letting things pile up, so I want to do it soon as it’s a fast target.” (Vanessa)
“Then I won’t take up too much of your time, I just want to know how the new residents are doing.” (I)
“They’re doing great, I’m teaching about the various cultures of the other races in the Dungeon, meanwhile I’ve left Lilian in charge of teaching about the Gods.” (Vanessa)
“Everyone was open-minded and very accepting of everything, I even introduced some people of other races to them.” (Vanessa)
“The most difficult issue was the communication barrier, so we are teaching the common language to everyone.” (Vanessa)
“Are they ready to live in the city?” (I)
“Not yet, but they will be, plus they’ve been training to become stronger after we’ve taught them a little about the customs of the city.” (Vanessa)
“Let them, they will need to know how to defend themselves, especially the men, if they want to survive the women of the Dungeon.” (I)
“That’s been another problem, new people aren’t that open sexually.” (Vanessa)
“That’s their problem, not mine, that’s also part of training people here, it helps both sides, so it’s still maintained.” (I)
“If they are not able to adapt, then release them along with the others.” (I)
“Alright, the kids will be the easiest as they won’t be targets, plus they’ll have time to get used to our customs.” (Vanessa)
“If I may say so, I think the customs here are a bit strange, even the custom of morning training for the entire population is something I’ve never heard of.” (Lilian)
“I didn’t create these customs, I just learned to accept things as they are instead of trying to fight against everything I find strange, after all, there are only strange people here.” (I)
“Actually, it was vice who created these morning training, you train every morning which encouraged the others in the mansion to do the same, so the people of the mountain range also started following your example as they flocked against Farus.” (Vanessa)
“Over time it became a custom, but it started with you, plus the custom of men trying to conquer women started because of Nolan and the custom of women kidnapping men is something old that has centuries of history in the mountain range. ” (Vanessa)
“It seems that you have studied the many cultures of the various races well.” (I)
“This is my duty as a Priestess, I must meet those who worship the Goddess while spreading her teachings.” (Vanessa)
