5 Preparing For The Dungeon Dimension (1/2)
The day after we got the Dire Wolf, Orai and I woke up from our slumber. Luckily, the dungeon control room had a King-Sized bed already installed, albeit uncomfortable. As Orai and I cracked each other's backs, we looked at each other with drowsy eyes. We silently agreed that we needed to get ourselves a new mattress. As we drowsily got up, we saw that the dungeon control screen was showing us our daily report:
------------------------
[Dungeon Master Jordan] X [Dungeon Core Orai]
DM: 1
DL: 10
300 DP/day
DP: 500
------------------------
I yawned, looking at the screen of information. ”Look, Orai. Our dungeon is lvl 10 now. How come our DM hasn't increased yet?”
Orai rubbed her eyes, with her gradient right eye turning purple. ”Oh yeah...DM is your rank. Every 100 levels that you increase the dungeon, your DM will increase by 1. The max rank you can have is DM 10. Also, DL is the average strength of the dungeon. If we didn't have the Dire Wolf, we would probably be DL 4”. Orai began to yawn as she walked to the screen. She was wearing dungeon themed pajamas, which featured a chibi illustration of her dungeon core with a crown.
”Interesting Pajamas but where did you get it from? Doesn't that core look a lot like you?”, I said.
As I smiled at the dungeon core's cute pajamas, Orai's face began to turn red with embarrassment.
”If you laugh, I will literally dropkick you right now”, Orai cutely pouted.
Orai began to type into the Control screen, her right eye turning redder in the process.
”I forgot to mention that this world works on the Letter Rank system. Any mobs, humans, friendlies, hostiles, etc. that you encounter will appear as a letter grade in your HUD. This is a skill that only dungeon masters and Gods can utilize, as the inhabitants of Orune don't follow the concept of levels. They just gauge each others' strengths and go from there. However, adventurers are easier to tell based on the guild's ranking system”, Orai said typing.
When Orai pressed enter, the following screen appeared:
------------------------
S | 3200 DP
A | 800 DP
