It was true that his main focus was the Coins and challengers. However, that didn't mean he wanted to ignore the value of the dungeons for the challengers and himself. He also wanted to experience a fun interaction with his guests.
But that's not enough for him to stop reading. There was still something in his notification.
[You have reached your fame requirement! It's time to expand your dungeon to another dimension!]
A new dimension!
Cain's eyes widened in a pleasant surprise as he read that. A new dimension. Another dimension for him to open his dungeon.
By expanding the dungeon, he could open another dungeon door to other dimensions, and could bring the fun to other worlds and universes. That way, he could get more Coins from other sources too.
"Alright, system! Tell me more! How many options do I have? What are the requirements? Do I need to pay for that?"
[You have 3 options for a new dimension. Please select your options for free.]
1. Earth
2. Naruto
3. Fate/Grand Order
All three choices were familiar for Cain, a die hard anime lover and otaku. The first one being only Earth meant it was his original world where his original home was, while the other was the anime series that was famous, Naruto and Fate/Grand Order.
Each choice had positive and negative sides, of course. His first choice would be safe because the original world was peaceful and no one would think of a supernatural phenomenon. However, that's exactly the problem. People in that world would only see the dungeon as a myth, a legend, and only curious and brave people would dare to enter it.
His second and third choice, meanwhile, were captivating. He could disguise the dungeon as some kind of cave in Naruto world or a Singularity in Fate/Grand Order.
Accumulating Coins in both worlds would be easier, because the people would accept a supernatural phenomenon easier. However, that didn't mean he was safe. Fate/Grand Order had a lot of powerful people who could mess with dimensions. They probably could reach where he was right now.
"I want to open a dungeon in Fate/Grand Order, but it's too risky right now." He muttered, leaning against his throne, "System, will I be able to choose the option again in the future?"
The answer came in immediately. It was a yes. He was able to select another world after some time, and could open dungeons in that dimension in the future. All he had to do was to increase his Fame and Authority.
Seeing the answer, Cain grinned, and immediately selected the next dimension.
"Let's choose Naruto."
[Naruto dimension selected!]
[Fun Fun Dungeon! and Elemental Tower are connected to Naruto dimension. Please choose the entrance's location.]
"System, can you connect the Fun Fun Dungeon! to a cave in a forest in Konohagakure? Make it easy to find for Ninja. And Elemental Tower to somewhere in Sunagakure, the hidden village of Wind."
[Location selected. System is connecting Fun Fun Dungeon! and Elemental Tower.]
A system interface appeared in front of him, showing the newly connected dungeon. Cain took his time to learn more about the connection through the system and found out something.
The dungeon in the Highschool DxD world and the one in the Naruto world were connected. The limit he set for entering the dungeon also worked in Naruto.
Only a total of 6 people, from both worlds, were able to enter the Fun Fun Dungeon! at once, and 8 people for Elemental Tower. They would be able to meet the challengers in other worlds, and the dungeons in other worlds were exactly the same.
The monsters and traps, as well as layout was the same, except for the sign in the entrance.
Furthermore, the cooldown that Cain set after a party beat the dungeon, to allow the dungeon monsters to regenerate, was also shared. Which meant, only one dungeon existed, but now there were two entrances that led to the dungeon.
That was good for Cain. He had more sources of entertainment and Coins from another world.
At the same time, though, it would also limit his Coins earning. Because only one party would enter his dungeon at the same time, and he couldn't increase the number.
"I need to create another dungeon, a large-scale one where multiple parties could enter. Maybe a huge castle, a big maze, or an abandoned city. Yeah, I need to make a raid dungeon. But do I have another slot? System, show me my current status."
He asked, and the system answered like usual.
Status:
Name: Cain Volper
Title: Dungeon King (2), The King (2).
Fame: 2
Coins: 20,350
Authority: 3
Ability:
─ King's Privilege
─ Monster Modification
─ Item Creation
─ Monster Control
─ Voice Projection
Dungeon available:
─ Fun Fun Dungeon! (G)
─ Elemental Tower (E)
─ Empty Slot (?)
Dimension: [Highschool DxD], [Naruto]
Seeing the empty slot in the dungeon menu section, a grin appeared on Cain's face, showing an exciting and joyful smile. Just as he had thought. When his fame grew, he would be able to create a new dungeon. It was just a matter of time to create a large-scale dungeon.
And that time was now.
"I have a lot of Coins to spend. Let's add a few hidden rewards in my Elemental Tower, to give hope and entice my challengers." He grinned widely.
He didn't think that his second dungeon would be ranked E. He created it with a beginner friendly thought in mind. He didn't even have anything interesting for hidden rewards in his Elemental Tower. But that wouldn't do. Not anymore.
He was no longer the same Cain who just started building a dungeon. He had learned a lot by now.
After expanding to the Naruto world, he had to think how to make his challengers enter his dungeon again and not just doing one time run.
"Hidden rewards. Hidden rewards..." He murmured, thinking of ideas while scrolling down his dungeon system menu. "Hmm?"
While doing that, he found something interesting in the menu. Whether he missed it all this time or it came along with his new Authority and the change in his title, he didn't know. However, this additional menu was a game changer.
"I can see the monster's status?!" He exclaimed with his eyes shining brightly.
Without wasting any time, he decided to check all monsters he already put in Fun Fun Dungeon!, which included a normal slime, goblin, orc, and Minotaur. Their statuses displayed on the screen, similar to an RPG game.
---
Race: Slime
STR: G-
VIT: G-
AGI: G+
MP: G
HP: 15/15
---
Race: Goblin
STR: F-
VIT: G+
AGI: F
MP: G
HP: 50/50
---
Race: Orc
STR: E+
VIT: E
AGI: E-
MP: G-
HP: 120/120
Special Skills:
─ Orc Rage
---
Race: Minotaur
STR: D+
VIT: C-
AGI: E+
MP: F+
HP: 250/250
Special Skills:
─ Rage of the Bull
The system was like an RPG, so he understood it pretty fast. For example, the Yeti had a status like this:
---
Race: Snow Yeti
STR: C+
VIT: C
AGI: E
MP: F
HP: 550/550
Special Skills:
─ Snow Yeti's Rage
─ Ice Blast
Trait modified:
─ Cold Enhancement: STR and VIT increase exponentially in cold weather
The Yeti's special skills were a close ranged melee attack with its large hand that dealt high damage and an AoE attack that dealt less damage than melee, but it also had a chance to freeze the target.
This was the strength of 800 Coins monster with a simple trait modification that Cain could use from his authority, raising the monster status from D+ rank to C+ rank.
"Now this is interesting." Cain smiled widely and looked at the status of his monsters again, "I can create a more detailed plan with this. The new dungeon planning will be a lot easier."
With this new knowledge, he opened the monster creation menu. His mind was full of ideas for new monsters, dungeons, and even the hidden rewards in the Elemental Tower and Fun Fun Dungeon!.
"Let's get to work."
