Dungeons were widespread in all parts of the world. Some were separated by land with difficult terrain, and some were separated by a vast ocean. So it was impossible to attack Dungeons other than those near them.

p Therefore, to make it easier for demons to invade, this game provided two options.

The first was by direct combat. Demons could take troops out and invade another demon’s Dungeon.

The advantage of this method was that demons could attack at any time and were not bound by system rules—requiring them to attack dungeons that had the same number of floors. It was just that the demons had to travel the terrain outside the Dungeon. This method was not effective if the two Dungeons had a great distance apart.

The second way was by submitting a PvP request. The challenger made a request to attack the Dungeon by offering zenny. Of course, the party accepting the challenge might refuse.

If the challenge was accepted, the challenger, along with all the troops that had been prepared, would be transferred to the Dungeon of the requested demon. Challengers would be given seven days. And every time they break through one floor, they would get an additional seven days.

If the challenger ran out of time before destroying the Crystal Core, he was declared defeated and lost the zenny he was offered.

However, if the opposite happened, the challenger managed to penetrate to the top of the Dungeon and destroyed the Crystal Core, the demon who got the request would be eliminated from the game. The demon’s life was determined by the winner.

“In their eyes my Dungeon must look weak. So many people send me PvP requests.”

Suddenly, another notification appeared.

Ding!

[Request to speak from Baron Gustav]

One of Isaac’s eyebrows arched up when he saw a noble contacting him. Dreadful memories and resentment rose in his chest. The demon who had destroyed his dungeon in the past spoke to him first.

For a moment, Isaac thought about rejecting it. Not because of fear or trauma, but because he knew this conversation would only be a waste of time. However, in the end, Isaac changed his mind.

“I have to face the past,” he muttered.

The light from the Crystal Core was getting brighter and brighter. Then a demon with skin like the flame of a Power Crystal and had pointed ears appeared in the form of a light project. His facial expression was arrogant. From the look in his eyes, a look of contempt was clear.

“Hello, Lord Isaac! I thought you were hiding under the bed, hahaha!”

Isaac just kept silent, hearing the insults thrown at him. There was no change at all in his facial muscles. He looked as flat as a statue.

Although he looked calm from the outside, his emotions were raging inside. He had to kept his cool. If trivial mockery affected him, then he would never be able to take revenge on Duke Gavin.

“Remember, your target is a big fish. Not anchovies,” Isaac muttered to himself.

Isaac suppressed what he was feeling right now. Anger, grudge, hatred; all that he was hiding.

“I heard you turned down all PvP challenges. Don’t you have any confidence against them?” said Baron Gustav. There was a hint of contempt in every sentence he uttered.

“Perhaps,” Isaac replied curtly.

“Hah? It’s true that you are a coward! HA HA HA!”

Baron Gustave laughed loudly until his eyes filled with tears. Then, he started throwing various condescending sentences at Isaac.

“Oh, so this is as far as you can go. As a Demon Lord, you are a disappointment.”

“Where is your honour? The Constantines must be ashamed to have a descendant like you.”

“Your existence is a failure. The Absolute One must have created you by accident!”

Meanwhile, Isaac remained silent and his eyes glued to the demon’s projection of light.

If Isaac had been the old man, he might have burned with anger and got into Baron Gustav’s trap.

Isaac knew what the real motive of this conversation was. Every word that came out of Baron Gustav’s mouth was aimed at provoking Isaac. When emotions were ignited, Baron Gustav would continue to give coals that would turn his emotions into flames of anger.

When Isaac was angry, Baron Gustav would apply for PvP. Then, Isaac, who couldn’t think straight because he was burning with anger, would accept the challenge.

A simple strategy from Baron Gustav.

Isaac built this Dungeon overnight and the monsters he bought were weak. From the very beginning, he made this Dungeon non-lethal. Because the first objective was not fighting, but farming.

Even though his individual strength was enough to kill Baron Gustav, he still needed to be humble. If he managed to win with a weak Dungeon defence, of course, this would attract a lot of attention from the Nobles.

“Tch, you loser. You let other people trample on your pride. You don’t deserve to be born.”

This was the umpteenth insult hurled by Baron Gustav. While Isaac only gave the same answer. “It’s possible.”

After a while, even Baron Gustav himself was annoyed.

“You-!”

Baron Gustav stopped his words. No matter how much he insulted Isaac, he was only given the same answer. He began to feel that he was being toyed with.

Baron Gustav’s face started to turn red.

“My Lord!”

Suddenly, a little girl’s voice called out in the middle of their conversation.

Pippi appeared with a worried face. “My Lord! We’re in trouble.”

“Eh?”

Pippi’s facial expression looked awkward when she saw the projection of a demon. She came to her senses, having just interrupted the conversation of the two Demon Lords.

Instantly, laughter filled the room. From the projection light, Baron Gustav could be seen laughing while holding his stomach.

“No wonder this dungeon was almost destroyed. Master and servant, both losers.”

“WHAT!”

Pippi could not accept when her master was being insulted. She then got angry and told Baron Gustav to take back his word. However, he laughed even harder.

While Isaac sighed.

“It’s useless talking to you guys. Wasting my time. I hope you don’t die in human hands. Ha ha ha ha-!”

Baron Gustav’s projection was lost. He ended the communication. Pippi still looked angry.

“Watch out, ugly demon! My master will beat you!” cried Pippi, pointing at the Crystal Core.

Hearing Pippi’s words made Isaac smile faintly. Because what the little girl said was true.

Isaac would destroy Baron Gustav.

“Wait for me, Baron Gustav. Don’t lose before I destroy you,” Isaac muttered.

He had already prepared a plan to defeat his first enemy.
