When the sun rose up during dawn, the Underworld was shrouded in darkness. The hardworking Eggface had walked out from his nest.
As a Black Dragon, he had a strict biological clock.
The time was 7:30 am. He played the rolling Undead game for the entire night, but that didnât affect his rest. Even if he had dark rings around his eyes, that wasnât a problem as he was a Black Dragon.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
When Eggface saw the Airship coming back, he immediately shut down the computer and left the Dungeon Lord Main Hall.
After Eggface had awakened, he went to wash up. Then he started his work as a secretary.
A few Gnomes had set up a huge cauldron of boiling water to let Eggface have a comfortable bath.
Then a few Gnomes and Houndhead Men gave Eggface a full body massage. A few Goblins begged and pleaded with Eggface to give them a chance for a Houndhead Man reincarnation.
The unfeeling Eggface rejected all requests as the Goblins were unwilling to kneel down and call him Master. They didnât deserve to be reincarnated.
After a comfortable bath, Eggface took his briefcase and checked his notebook. There was no entry for today, so Eggface was relieved.
He received various worships from Goblins, Gnomes, and Houndhead Men while he walked along.
âFather Eggface! Give me a hidden mission!â
âJust a Houndhead Man reincarnation chance! Please! Lord Eggface!â
âAh! The King of Darkness! I need your power...â
What kind of a Dragon was Eggface? He was the King of Dark Flames, the Master of Darkness. The highest breed of Dragon. How could they expect to be Eggfaceâs closest servants with their naivety?
It wasnât possible. With their capabilities, they were only suitable to be laborers!
Eggface had arrived at the Dungeon Lord Main Hall. He opened the door and saw Sherlock typing furiously on the keyboard. He must be browsing the discussion forum.
Eggface wasnât interested in the discussion forum. He put the briefcase on the table and brewed a cup of bloody chrysanthemum tea that he finished in a gulp. Then he started his work as a secretary.
Eggface paced around the room and found a suitable corner, sitting down with his two front paws supporting the ground. Then, he slowly sprawled on the ground.
It was time to work.
...
Sherlock heard Eggface snore, and his typing crawled to a halt.
âWhat time did Eggface play until last night?â
âLet me check...â Bru became silent before he said, âThirty minutes before you came.â
âTsk.â
âLord Sherlock, that Fallen Angel last night...â Bru was puzzled, but he was interrupted by Sherlock.
âIt was after my compulsory education. She was my 70 years classmate from higher education,â Sherlock said without lifting his head.
âMy initial capital for the Dungeon was sponsored by her. Sheâs considered my investor.â
âInvestor? Sponsored?â Bru raised the tone of his voice.
âI agreed to her conditions if she gave me a sum of money. Then, I have to give her some benefits according to the conditions,â Sherlock said without emotion.
âFrom what I understand, itâs a loan.â
âNo, no, no. Thereâs interest to be paid per month for a loan, but I donât have to pay interest. If I meet her conditions, I wonât need to pay interest,â Sherlock corrected Bru.
âThatâs obtaining a loan by providing a nude picture of yourself,â Bru said confidently.
âI can understand from the Fallen Angelâs attitude of âI cannot do without youâ how the process of getting back her loan could be rather intense.â
âItâs not appropriate to describe that as intense.â Sherlock frowned and said, âWe had a happy negotiation, and I told her of the use of the loan. Thatâs all.â
âI see.â Bru said thoughtfully, âI was bought using the money from the Fallen Angel, a loan from your classmate. She tried to find you to get back her loan. Are the three Hamsters her debt collectors? Tsk, tsk, I thought they looked cute. I didnât expect them to have such a horrifying background. Can I believe what you have said?â
âSince when have I lied to you?â Sherlock nodded and said confidently.
âHow are you going to settle it? The creditor has found you. I donât think you can send her packing with a few words.â Bru asked again, âShe has her name figured out. It seems like sheâs going to stay here for a long time. Whatâs your plan? Are you going to sell me to repay the loan?â
âOf course not. I said it before, she gave me money to invest. Though Iâm not prepared, I can bring her to see the result of her investment. Moreover, sheâs the largest investor for Eternal Kingdom.â
Sherlock had completed his update content. Bru said, âLord Sherlock, what did she ask you to invest in? I donât think she asked you to invest in the Dungeon.â
âIâm just honoring what I said to her before... a story.â Sherlock looked as though he recalled something interesting. âStepping on the supremacy and divine rights of all nations. Yes, thatâs it.â
âWah, your expression with the dialog was just slightly inferior to âcool, cooler, coolest!â. I thought you were just humoring me, but after speaking to you, Iâm feeling happy. It seems like the Lilo Fallen Angel is the victim... I mean, sheâs one of your better golden geese.â
Bru said excitedly, âIâm in awe of Lord Sherlockâs ambition. I initially thought that you intended to conquer the entire Underworld. Actually, youâre going for the supremacy and divine rights of all nations. Iâm excited by the thought. Except for Satan, who fell from the Heavens with a third of the stars, nobody ever did that. No, no, not even Satan, he was badly beaten up. The closest superior Devil was that Michelangelo, but itâs a pity that great person also failed in conquering the Heavenly Kingdom.â
âIâm excited to follow such an ambitious superior Devil like you. Are we going to attack the Heavenly Kingdom? Shall we start from conquering Winterfell?â
Bru was muttering about his chaotic plans for conquest, but Sherlock ignored his blabbering. Sherlock was checking the contents of his update announcement carefully. After confirming there were no mistakes, he published it.
