[I know that this might be too confusing, but Dungeons are part of the Realm when you conquer one, you actually conquered a part of the Realm"s [Land], after conquering dozens of dungeons all across the Lower Realm, you"ve managed to successfully conquer all of this [Land] and also fuse with it! Making it all your territory]


[Now that you"ve conquered all of this territory, the requirements for a hidden system function that has never been implemented emerged, it seemed that the System Master had created it for himself, and this is why it was so saved up, but now that you unlocked it due to having copy-pasted the System into your soul, you are free to utilize it!]


"What is the name of this function?"


[The name is the [Realm Conquest] Function! By creating a [Realm Core] here, you will be able to manipulate and have supreme authority over this entire part of the Realm, as if it were a dungeon!]


A new function has emerged in front of me, one I didn"t expect at all! And a function that surprised me greatly…


"Well, seeing how there are many functions saved up in that System, it is not hard to believe that something like this would show up," I said.


[Indeed… However, as you are not using this function through the system but through your system, you are the one using all of your power and greatness to attain such an ability, it is not something being gifted to you, it is merely a form of your own power! Through extending the influence of your existence and dominion over the entire Lower Realm through the dungeons, you"ve managed to do it!]


"So you"re telling me that this is an extension of my own power, Andromeda-chan?" I asked.


[That"s right! It is a mere extension and conversion of your power, the program including this Function has simply been used to make things swifter and more rewarding. As you can see, you"ve fused with the real itself each time you conquered a dungeon and fused with it, the more you fused with, the greater your connection with the entire realm became…]


"I see… Is this something similar to the Empire System? It does feel quite similar," I said.


[Why yes, it is something similar, more like a fusion of it alongside the dungeon system! Through this, you will be able to manage an entire piece of the Realm, and also give it special functions similar to those of a dungeon, such as the ability to generate monsters spontaneously, the power to generate rewards, and the ability to extract energy naturally. And because it will be almost half of the dungeon if not a bit more, there will be an enormous amount of energy being a.s.similated constantly!]


"So both the Empire and the Dungeon System might merge into this?" I asked.


[More or less! Though I will be able to manage most things through the Realm Core. Sadly, it will only cover your authority over all of this area, the surface will still be below your jurisdiction, but you can slowly expand your authority by conquering more dungeons, you"ve already stolen the other Kingdoms anyways…]


"So technically, through this, I can pretty much make an entire Realm into a giant Dungeon?! Then the Realm will truly become like a game…" I said.


Usually, in most RPG and MMO games you walk around and find monsters that drop materials and equipment out of thin air, even if it doesn"t make much sense…


In this world, that only happens inside Dungeons themselves, the outside world such as the rest of the entire Realm there are no such things, and defeated enemies or monsters don"t drop anything, the only thing there is are their corpses and items.


Bu this changes everything, it technically makes it so the entire Realm gains dungeon-like rules and status, and I can earn energy through it from defeated monsters, or even people there.


Although I have cleaned the surface, or at least all of the border continent of most of the people already, as they are valuable mortals for wors.h.i.+p.


But still, just filling it with monsters and make them kill each other would work, making something like an endless cycle!


Although this place is already wild and monsters are killing each other everywhere, with many being super strong, so maybe it won"t change as much in that regard! However, as I said earlier, giving everything some more game-like features might end up making all of this even more chaotic!


Especially because it might even bring some management features as well… As I will be able to manage all of this s.p.a.ce, maybe I will be able to shape the land with even more ease or add new types of structures, monsters, and more.


It"s all quite mysterious and interesting, to be honest…


"What will the Realm Core be for? To add all these functions? Where will it be located?" I asked.


[The Realm Core will be formed through the crystallization of the world"s source energy within the Realm! After all, the Realm of Vida used to be part of the original planet of Genesis, right? So it is quite right in this energy… It could be said to be like a small lesser version of an Origin Core, even things such as Laws could be enhanced and manipulated at longer distances within the territory of your Realm Core… It also might contain more capabilities, although we won"t be able to see them in detail unless we actually make it!]


I see… so it is like a small World Origin Core…


Wait, that"s kind of crazy! Am I already creating a little one of these?!


d.a.m.n… Perhaps if I connect myself with it, I will get way more than I imagine, perhaps I could even get some law-breaking powerups.


But I am worried about where will this be located, and if it will be easy to detect and destroy by an enemy, that"s a really big question, right?


[Oh, and don"t worry, the Realm Core can be located within any area of the territory you govern, Master. You could put it underground or even hide it within the spatial layers]


"Oh, that"s more rea.s.suring… Alright then, let"s do it. Will, it cost me anything?" I asked.


[Indeed, the price might be a bit too much, but please bear with me and don"t get surprised… It will cost 15 million Divine Points (Rank 3)!]


What?!


That much?!


"But my precious points! I"ve saved them all this time…" I sighed.


[Please, Master, relax. After you spend these points and a new million divine energy, the Realm Core will be created. Through the constant cycle of energies added into our daily infusion and conversion of power into divine points and cultivation essence, you will be able to quickly gain back what you spent, and enhance your daily revenue as well!]


"I see. So this is like investing?" I asked.


[Oh… Exactly, Master! It will be like investing in something that will grant you a greater benefit than what you spent in the long run. Also, I am quite sure that you will be able to regain more of those Divine Points after you eat the G.o.ds defeated by your allies and family, Master]


Oh yeah, she"s right, I will be able to get a bunch of Divine Points after eating those guys…


"You"re right! Alright then, you convinced me… Let"s make it," I said.


[Excellent, everything is ready, so simply press "yes" for the creation of the Realm Core to begin, Master! I am excited, you"ve achieved, once more, something that will shake the world!]


"I am also quite excited… Let"s do it," I said.


Ding!


[Do you wish to begin the creation of the [Realm Core]?]



I quickly press yes, as the moment afterward, I feel my precious divine points going away from me…


Ding!


[You exchanged 15.000.000 Divine Points (Rank 3)!]


[You spent 50.000.000 Divine Energy!]


Gueh…


The moment I accept, I felt like I was drained of most of my energy in a mere instant, left like a dry raisin…


However, I slowly begin to regenerate my Divine Energy, it might take some time for most G.o.ds, but because the recovery of Divine Energy happens inside the Divine Realm, the more time happens inside, the more it recovers, so in the outside world, it looks as if I was recovering it super quickly!


The more time dilation I make, the faster my Divine Energy will recover too, I guess this is the "cheat" that Time G.o.ds might use… Wait, does this means that the Supreme G.o.d of Time has endless divine energy?! No, maybe not… If he were to be so overpowered he might have already acted doing something, right?


[Master, it"s starting!]


Andromeda quickly notifies me that the creation of the Realm Core has begun, as the energy and divine points I wholeheartedly spent there began to condense and materialize in front of me, while also absorbing the world source energies within the entire Realm, which are produced naturally!


FLAs.h.!.+


The entire Lower Realm begins to tremble, as dozens, almost countless amounts of rivers of world source energy begin to fly towards the front of my body, where all of these energies begin to condense and trans.m.u.te into a crystal.


FLAs.h.!.+


Another bright flash of light emerges, coming out of this mysterious and mystical crystal of power, shaping, and growing larger and larger, glowing with the colors of the rainbow.


Hmm… Let"s give it a bit more incentive, how about a piece of my soul?


Quickly cut a large chunk of my soul and throw it at the crystal, which was slowing down on its creation, perhaps needing more fuel.


FLAs.h.!.+


The moment it absorbs my piece of soul, it explodes into bright light, even brighter than before as the creation of the crystal resumes once more at an incredible speed!


[Master! What did you do? T-That wasn"t within the plan…]


"Well, I saw that it needed a bit of an incentive, and it worked, see?"


[Oh… right… S-Sorry for doubting you! I was a bit worried when it almost exploded, but it seems that Master"s soul is very nutritious! I see why your family and allies eat it every day so eagerly]


"Indeed, now let"s add some of my flesh too," I said, as I expanded my near-endless flesh and threw gigantic chunks of it at it.


[Eeeh?! W-Wait, Master, isn"t this a bit… too much?!]


"It is never too much! Look, it is happily devouring it! Here, take more of my soul and flesh, take it all! I want you to be as strong as possible, little core!" I said while laughing like a maniac (and well, I kind of am a maniac), as I continuously threw more of my flesh and soul into it.


Thanks to the special properties of my soul and body, it kept regenerating and reforming like nothing, even when I threw away a large piece of my soul containing many divinities mixed in there, it regrew back like nothing while the power I lost quickly came back.


I guess this is the "weird" thing about my soul and body, it can simply regenerate endlessly thanks to my self-renewal, but there are also ways to weaken it through outside damage, or when a true body clone dies while being connected to my soul, where I end up losing stats permanently. I don"t even know the logic behind it, but perhaps it has to do with these abilities I had made part of my soul and even Origin Core, and perhaps something even more, such as my Origin being that of the child of Chaos, so perhaps my very existence is unique, possessing special things that no other has that I must develop more for them to "open up" to me.


It is all quite complex, but it is what it is! I might find the answers one day, although I had already had my guesses.


FLAs.h.!.+


With this last flash of bright light, the crystallization of all this power, the Realm Core, is about to be created!
