Chapter 630 - [Fated Encounters: Nyzzets Labyrinth Conquest] 92/?: Labyrinth Empress! (1/2)

As I was about to butcher the two corpses and help my family and servants to cook them, yet another system notification showed up.
Ding!
[Congratulations! You have cleared the Dungeon!]
[The title [Labyrinth Queen] has awakened into [Labyrinth Empress]!]
[Kireina] acquired the Skill [Mystical Thunder Dragonoid Transformation: Level 1]!] (Assimilated by Superior Skill!)
[Kireina] received the commemorative prize [Divine Dungeon Treasure (Lesser Heavenly)] x1!]
”Oh? So, there were a few prizes left for me… And this Divine Dungeon Treasure… it is higher than Phantasmal! Lesser Heavenly?! Isn't this the rank that gods often wield as artifacts?! …What kind of treasure could there be inside?” I wondered, as my family asked me what I was babbling about.
”Mommy, what is it?” asked Amiphossia.
”Don't tell me that you got even more rewards…” muttered Ryo.
”It seems that it is the case…” said Aarae.
”It seems that by conquering the dungeon, I get a few other rewards… I remember that this happened in the Forsaken Labyrinth, but not in Kaggoth's Dungeon… Perhaps I did something wrong there? Ah, right, I skipped all the bosses until the last one… perhaps to properly conquer a dungeon, I need to beat every boss?” I wondered.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #%5Bfated-encounters-nyzzet's-labyrinth-conquest%5D-92-labyrinth-empress!_51977112600505820 for visiting.
”That must be the case, honey… but because you already fought the last boss, I don't think you can go back there and fight the other bosses expecting any more rewards from the system aside from the natural dropped items… Which I doubt are of your interest” said Zehe.
”What a bummer… well, next time I won't try to rush it as much… Well, I can rush it and fight all bosses… So I guess I just have to not skip the bosses” I said.
”Yeah, guuu! Which dungeon are we exploring next? This one was filled with surprises!” said Rimuru.
”Rimuru-chan, I think that we should take a small break first…” said Nesiphae.
”Huh? Is that so? But Nesiphae-san, we have to grow strong and strong!” said Rimuru.
”I can't argue with that… but our pace is already quite fast, so at least a week for free or two should be enough before dungeoning again,” I said.
”Okay! What will be the next dungeon though?” asked Rimuru.
”I remember that Maeralya and Marnet own you their dungeons as well, right, my wife?” asked Adelle.
”That's right, we'll try to speed run these two, so it doesn't eat as many days as Nyzzet's dungeon did,” I said.
”Yay! Speed run! Let us beat bosses and gather loot!” said Rimuru… she was seemingly getting addicted to the gratification of exploring dungeons, beating strong monsters, eating their delicious meat, and getting showered in rewards… but what can I say against that? I am as well rather addicted to it, after all, a game-like world has always been my fantasy in my previous life.
Although this world is actually real, and if we were to die, I do not think we would respawn like in a game, so such gratification must be taken in slowly before we were to get too much into it to the point of losing a hold on reality.
There is also the Dark Steppes issue, although the sealed god there is still slowly unsealing itself, I remember that the Gods told me that they bought information about Hephaestus showing up around there… I cannot drag this too much, there is some work to do there, and I cannot lose the opportunity to grow stronger by eating these pesky gods…
If the System Gods were trying to tell me to grow as fast as possible, it should mean that something greater than what I can imagine or expect is slowly creeping on my back… I cannot take too big of a break in this world. It's constantly moving at a great pace, everything is changing, and as I keep moving, the world around me changes even more…
There are not any more options than to keep going until I am capable of reaching a strength where there won't be any more problems anymore… and even with my fast growth, that is still extremely far away from my grasp.
I think that even after reaching the strength of a Supreme Goddess, there will be all the other Supremes with an equal strength trying to f.u.c.k me over… I would need to be as strong or even stronger than the World's Will… Damn, there is a big road ahead.
Anyways, for now, I will take a small break with my family, I have to be more like Rimuru and take life a bit more carefreely, I suppose. I have to enjoy the present while preparing for the future.

As Kireina accompanied her family and servants to butcher and cook the two final bosses of Nyzzet's Dungeon, the god himself, Nyzzet, the Dragon God of Thunder, was left in awe after having seen Kireina defeat the two bosses with her mere… eyes.
He was not alone this time, as there were the other gods with him. He was still in Agatheina's Divine Realm and had decided to glance at Kireina's feats through a crystal ball that connected to his Dungeon.
Although a few of the gods were a bit surprised, only Nyzzet was terrified… mostly because he was a coward that was always scared of everything.
”This is… Terrifying! Kireina-sama just beat my strongest Boss Monsters with a glance of her eyes?! I remember that she took some time fighting the Thunder Monsters controlled by Begudhur in some cases… But how she didn't take a minute at all with my two strongest warriors?!” asked Nyzzet in disbelief.
”You fool, Kireina-sama can devour Gods' whole, do you think that two strong mortal beings would even stand a chance against her? They did possess your blessing, but it is not like you shared your power with them, right?” asked Merveim with a grumpy expression, he was getting tired of Nyzzet being such an odd god. But he was his brother, so he had to have some patience with Nyzzet's foolishness.
