My Dungeon Life: Rise of the Slave Harem - Chapter 1360

“How so?” I asked cautiously.

“Master, you have a power inside you that you don’t even realize. Those blessings that are attached to your body, they don’t have to remain that way.”

“I’m sorry?”

“Your soul is that of a soul world! Does a world so like a place that has only one story?”

“I guess not.”

“Exactly! Master, you can absorb your blessings into your soul world, making them part of you. Lore can be combined and merged. It can be united and built upon. Every subsequent piece of lore only makes something more complex, more powerful, and more compelling! Right now, you only use your blessings. It’s like opening a book and reading a passage. It’s better than the base part, but do you know what is even better? Unity!

“You can merge with the lore, make it part of yourself. You can become one with the world, and when that happens…”

“When that happens…”

“You become a god.” She revealed.

“Shao… that’s a little…”

A bell began to bang loudly. The fifth bell had rung. My expression dropped.

“Master, is something wrong?” Shao asked.

“I have to go.” I responded.”

Shao smiled awkwardly. “You’ll be back though, right?”

I opened my mouth and then closed it. I didn’t know why I needed to go. I didn’t know where I was going.

“Just… summon the gift, and everything can keep going as before.” Shao smiled.

“I see… Twilight.”

As soon as I spoke those words, the world changed around me.

I was no longer standing in the cottage next to Shao but instead, I was standing in a small library with a desk. Shao and my daughter were gone. This wasn’t like summoning either. I didn’t feel like I was pulled out and moved. Rather, it felt like the world around me changed in an instant. As I looked around in confusion, I found Twilight standing nearby watching me.

“You called?” She casually walked over and took a seat. “Come, relax…”

I narrowed my eyes suspiciously, feeling like something was off. “Who are you?”

“Are you happy here?” Twilight asked instead.

“Of course, I’m happy,” I responded. “Why wouldn’t I be happy? I have my family. I have my daughters. I spent years building to this point.”

“Have you?” She raised an eyebrow.

“Ye-” I was just about to say yes, but then I thought back and frowned. “This is what you wanted me to see. Why?”

I was trying to remember the years that lead up to this point. I was trying to remember all the difficulties. There were countless enemies, and countless allies, and many trials and tribulations. However, everything turned out well in the end. Yet, if I tried to remember a single detail of what had happened, I couldn’t. This caused me to realize that this must be some kind of illusion. This wasn’t real.

“Terra and Garnet are missing,” I muttered.

“Yes…” She responded. “I couldn’t manufacture their lore from your memory. It came too close to your original mission. It would have woken you up too soon. As for the warnings, that’s merely your subconscious trying to breakthrough.”

I wasn’t sure I believed her. All of this felt so surreal.

“Woken me up…” I frowned. “Where am I?”

“You’re with me.” She smiled. “You’re with us.”

“Th-the darkness…” I started to recall such a name.

“I dislike that name!” Her expression darkened, and for a moment even the room seemed darker, but it was over as quickly as it began. “I’m much fonder of shadows. You can call me Twilight.”V/IssịT n0(v)eL/b(i)(n).𝘤𝑜/𝓂 for the b/est novel reading experi/en/ce

I shook my head, still trying to recall things. It was like my mind didn’t want to remember. It was like I didn’t want to wake up.

“I hope you understand a bit about me now. I hope you can understand what I can give you. I would have shown you more, but we’ve run out of time.”

“Give me what?” I asked. “What are you?”

“The great union.” She smiled. “I am preservation. I am peace. I am love. I am the world!”
