Chapter 101 - 101. Finding a New Home

Nytri is on the 129th floor with Dialdelios(Maid) and golem set(Mostly King). Nytri placed a thought in the Nexusphere for everyone to vote on, "Should we find a new place to live or remain in the dungeon?" that's the question.

At the center of the 129th floor where the shrine used to be, King has built a throne there. King directs Nytri to sit down, "Here, my Liege."

"Okay." Nytri says, she sits on the throne looking at a screen before her showing the live results of the vote.

"My liege," King speaks, "That is not how you should sit."

"Huh?" Nytri looks at herself, "I'm just sitting normally."

King shakes his head, "No my liege, you must sit with dignity not as anyone else. Let your presence be felt in the room." Dialdelios is nodding by the side. King takes Nytri's leg and puts it on the other and moves her hand for her head to rest on it and her elbow on the arm of the throne. "Perfect, now gaze upon your subjects with the feeling of pride!"

Nytri raises a brow, then she looks at the entrance and thoughts. "I'm proud."

King shakes his head, "No my liege, you must make that the statement that you're better than everyone."

"I'm better than everyone?" Nytri says.

King shakes his head, "No my liege, you mustn't say it but exude it. Let everyone feel inferior."

"Okay," Nytri says, "Like this." Nytri's thoughts, "I'm better than everyone." At that moment, pressure exudes from her making her look like a giant before everything. King stares at her with awe and bows with Dialdelios. Nytri looks at them, "Is that it?"

King flinches and stands back up, "Sorry my liege, I couldn't resist. Yes, that is all. You must show your superiority to make everyone kneel before you, show them that you are my KING!"

"Uhh, okay." Nytri says, she crosses her legs beneath her and sits on the throne.

King has a sad look at his thoughts, "My liege, please don't throw my lessons away." Dialdelios comforts him.

The voting is complete, 3,541 to 1. Nytri sighs, "I guess I'm the only one who wants to stay here."

"Why would you want to stay in the dungeon, Nytri?" Dialdelios asks.

"Well," Nytri speaks curling herself on the throne a bit scared, "Bandits are outside."

King tries to comfort her, "You don't ha- pardon me, Bandit?" King is confused.

Nytri nods slowly, "Yes…they catch you and cover your head. Then they tie you up and do bad things to you, they're so scary." Nytri gets teary.

Dialdelios' jaw drops, "You're afraid of bandits?" Nytri nods hugging her knees, Dialdelios points at Nytri. "She's afraid of bandits."

.....Silence...…..

King smiles, "My liege, there's no need to be afraid of bandits." He puts his hand on her shoulder, "I just went through your memories of your childhood, there's nothing to worry. No bandit can hurt you."

Inside the Nexusphere, King pasted the face of the bandits who kidnapped Nytri in her childhood with a little tiny notice. "Search and destroy with extreme prejudice!" The Azurians and Azurites outside start to hunt.

King smiles, "My liege, there's no need to be afraid. You're not as weak as you were back then, you're strong, brave. There's nothing you can't overcome, and I'll help you overcome this one too." King hugs Nytri and Dialdelios also hugs her.

"Thanks." Nytri sniffles, "I think I can go out now, I'll just face them like always."

Dialdelios speaks to King through telepathy, "I didn't know childhood trauma can affect her."

King replies, "The past can't be changed, whatever damaged done is done and the impact is still the same after many years. I'm sure my Liege will overcome this, all she has to do is see how weak bandits are."

"What if we find those bandits for her?" Dialdelios speaks to King through telepathy.

"No no no no!" King replies, "Those guys have got to die. PAINFULLY!"

Strangely the bandits already died but some survived, the Azurian catch him and use runes in a Forbidden way resurrecting the dead bandits. Then, they killed them again after many many many hours of torture, might reach a year but that's for another time.

It has been decided that the Azurians and Azurites will move out of the dungeon to the world and live in peace. Nytri is drawing the blueprints of their new home, it's modern. Before Nytri is a 3D map of a land and she designs the buildings, "This'll be the central plaza where we gather for stuff. Here the guard posts, though we don't need it. The commerce district and research district, the accommodation district will have a lot of amenities or it'll be too quiet. Maybe a mechanic district, that should be close to the research district. Testing grounds, water source, we could dig a well. Food source...….Maybe I can take a part of this dungeon along. No one has even crossed the 20th floor, so 30th floor downwards will be moved to our new home."

She's absorbed into real estate in the meantime.

....

On the 6th floor of the dungeon, Sitri (Azurian with identical look to Nytri except Azurian size and light skin plus mature look. In a white shirt and pants with silver necklace and black slippers.) is walking towards the adventurers dungeon settlement. She intends on leaving the dungeon so she had to pass through here.

Sitri notices the settlement and walks over to it, she stands before the entrance reading the sign on the gate.

"Fancy seeing a woman like you here." An adventurer walks out to meet Sitri, "You're even bigger up close. Are you by chance a dungeon dweller?"

Sitri looks at the adventurer without answering, Azurian trait, they don't get along with other races. The adventurer gets annoyed, "Huh? You're not going to answer? Hmph, dungeon dweller." He walks away, he knows he'd get beaten up if he challenges her.

Sitri looks back at the settlement, then she walks around it to the other side towards the exit. People noticed her but she isn't the first big person to walk pass here, the other Azurians already came here.

Sitri walks out of the Abyssal Sanctum, this is her first time leaving the dungeon. She takes a deep breath, "The breeze is nice up here." Other adventurers daring into the dungeon notice her but pay her no heed. "So humans now see us as one of them. Fitting in will be a lot easier than I thought."

Sitri looks to her right, she takes a step releasing a pulse from her. The pulse spreads across the land creating a map for her.

"Si! Wait up!" Sitri hears a voice calling her, she turns around to see Rono (Azurite male).

"Rono," Sitri speaks, "What is it?"

"I'm coming with you." Rono grins, "Did you also accept the quest to find land for our home?"

"Yeah," Sitri speaks, "I'm heading this way. There seems to be an unexplored mine through that forest." Sitri shows the map to Rono through the Nexusphere, everyone else thinks their weird.

The 2 set out conversing. "That's the Dark Glades," Rono speaks, "It's uncharted territory for all races. Apparently, that place is too dangerous for them so they stopped exploring."

"It's a great place," Sitri speaks, "It's out of sight and we won't have to worry about people getting involved with us."

Rono chuckles, "Si, you do know we're literally going to make and fake a kingdom. Eventually we'll have to interact with other nations." Sitri humphs and Rono continues, "Come on, you guys have to learn to get along with the other races. Your intimidating sizes alone creates a barrier. Little Nytri was once like them, you know." Azurites call Nytri little because they're all older than her and the Azurians.

"But she's no longer like them." Sitri looks at the humans(Dwarves) on the road, "They're pathetic selfish greedy low lives who're better off dead." Her words are heard by the others.

A dwarf walks up to them, "What's this Missy? Ya think ye better cauz of yer size? I'm a gold rank adventurer, ya better apologize or I'll make ya regret this." He grunts looking at Sitri.

Sitri points down looking down on the dwarf, "This is my point. Pathetic." She moves swiftly and lifts the dwarf by the collar shocking him. "Gold rank huh. The bug's not even level 50." She drops the dwarf, she lowers herself bringing her face closer to him. "If you want to survive, know who to fight and who not to fight." She walks past the dwarf now scared of her.

Rono walks up to the dwarf and helps him up, "Sorry about that sir, they're not really good talkers." He walks faster and catches up to Sitri speaking to her, "Sheesh, you didn't have to go picking a fight like that!"

"Picking a fight?" Sitri looks at Rono confused.

Rono facepalms sighing, "We better pick up on culture soon or your monster lifestyles would make fitting in hard." Sitri chuckles, they walk along to find a new land.
