The dungeon shook harder now
not from collapse,
but from something awakening.
Aurelion slid across the stone floor, slime body glowing with blue-white aurora light from Froznir's power.
"Mind Core Oracle, what's coming?"
Scanning…
Threat Detected: Dungeon Lord
Classification: S Rank Apex Monster
Danger: None Host has complete immunity
Aurelion pulsed, the closest thing to a grin a slime could make.
"Perfect."
A wave of killing intent crashed through the corridor.
Then
BOOOOOM
A massive stone gate exploded outward.
Steps shook the entire dungeon as something approached.
A figure emerged:
A giant creature made of obsidian and molten cracks, wearing a bone crown
The Molten Abyss Tyrant.
Twenty meters tall.
Four burning arms.
Eyes of liquid magma.
It roared, the air turning red-hot.
Froznir whispered in Aurelion's mind:
"Abyss Tyrant… a predator that devours dragons. It killed thousands in ancient wars."
Aurelion felt no fear.
"I'm immune to fire… heat… physical… spiritual… curse… magic…"
He was simply unstoppable.
The Tyrant slammed a burning fist down
BOOM
A dust cloud exploded
And cleared just as fast.
Aurelion didn't move.
The hit did nothing.
Not a scratch. Not even a wobble.
Aurelion spoke calmly.
"My turn."
Draconic Channeling: Froznir
Aurelion's slime body erupted in icy light, forming a towering silhouette of frost.
A giant spectral dragon head formed behind him.
Froznir's voice thundered:
"Freeze the beast!"
Aurelion inhaled
FROST GOD BREATH
A beam of divine ice shot forward.
The Tyrant tried to raise its arms
Too late.
The breath washed over it, freezing molten rock, cracking obsidian bones, sealing all four arms in crystal-blue ice.
The ground froze for miles.
The dungeon ceiling formed hanging icicles the size of swords.
The Tyrant screamed
a sound that shook the air
then shattered one arm free, molten blood dripping.
It tried to retaliate.
It couldn't.
Everything it did…
everything it was…
meant nothing.
Aurelion walked forward.
"You threaten dragons."
He fired a second beam.
"You threaten me."
An explosion of ice swallowed the Tyrant.
When the mist cleared
Its entire lower body was frozen to the floor.
Its upper body crumbled like ash.

Froznir spoke proudly:
"You grow stronger faster than any creature I've ever seen."
Aurelion pulsed with confidence.
"This world is full of things I can devour."
At the center of the Tyrant's chamber, glowing like a beating heart
A Dungeon Core.
Blue. Ancient. Alive.
The Mind Core Oracle activated:
Dungeon Core detected
Absorbing it will make you the new Dungeon Sovereign
Benefits: unlimited mana, control of all monsters, immortality within domain
Aurelion slid forward.
"Mine."
He touched the core.
Absorb.
The entire dungeon shook violently then bowed to him.
Glowing lines of mana spread through every wall, ceiling, and floor as the dungeon recognized its new master.
TITLE ACQUIRED: DUNGEON SOVEREIGN
SKILL ACQUIRED: WORLD CORE FORGE
HOST HAS GAINED COMPLETE CONTROL
Aurelion felt it.
Every monster.
Every corridor.
Every trap.
Every hidden chamber.
All of it belonged to him.
The rocks beneath him split and reformed, creating a floating icy throne made by the dungeon itself.
Froznir appeared beside him within the inner domain, wings stretching proudly.
"Aurelion," he said, "in this world… you may become something greater than a dragon."
Aurelion's slime body pulsed with a cold, calm, absolute presence.
"Good," he said.
"I plan to devour everything that stands in my way."
The dungeon trembled in approval.
The world had gained a monster who wasn't meant to exist
a devourer with infinite growth, total immunity, and a dragon's power.
And this was only the beginning.
