Seeing how I had already obtained the Dungeon for myself, I decided to glance at its status before merging it with my own.
"System, show me this dungeon status…"

"Indeed, it is a very mediocre dungeon, aside from the Life Attribute Affinity, which is very rare, and the Artificial Biome Creation Skill at a high level, which is also very useful… even though it is a weak dungeon, its abilities are very unique compared to other dungeons incapable of creating biomes inside"
"Honey will our Dungeon back in the Empire obtain the ability to produce Biomes inside with that Skill?" asked Zehe.
"Indeed, though I can't imagine a Chaos Attribute Biome…" I muttered.
"What are you waiting for, mommy? Fuse it, fuse it!" shouted Ailine.
"Combine the Dungeons!" Said Vudia, both girls were hyped about seeing the merge by themselves.
"Guu!" shouted Rimuru.
Ding!
[Wicked Bloody Labyrinth of the Devilish Demoness (Merged Dungeon)]'s Unique Skill [Dungeon Devour; Level 6] has been activated, however, it needs the Master approbation]
[Approve of this?]
[>YES NO]
"Yes!"
Ding!
[The [Dungeon Devour] Skill from the [Wicked Bloody Labyrinth of the Devilish Demoness (Merged Dungeon)] has been activated]
[Both Dungeons are being merged, please wait, and sit tight]
"There it is!" I said as I expanded my body into red slime-like tentacles, grabbing on everyone tightly.
Crumble!
The Dungeon began to tremble tremendously as if we're about to fall over us and crush us to death… through my Slime Clones stationed in each of the Centaurs cities and villages, I ordered the people to grab on something solid and patiently wait for the tremors to finish.
And by using the Phantom Slime Bats scouting the outside, I glanced at the dungeon, which seemed to be buried in the snow of the Cilane Kingdom's outskirts. It emerged from the underground and showed the bright golden bricks to the outside.
Meanwhile, in my Empire, the large Dungeon extended a large underground corridor through the entire landscape, crushing through rocks, dirt, and even gems that stored in the underground, a few human villages or bandit hideouts were destroyed by the tremors caused… well I don't care, they never joined my Empire.
The large room extended through several kilometers, reaching the outskirts of Cilane and then merging itself with the revealed entrance to Morpheus's dungeon.
Clash!
An even larger tremor happened… and then, it completely stopped as if nothing had happened.
Ding!
[The [Wicked Bloody Labyrinth of the Devilish Demoness (Merged Dungeon)] has devoured the [Morpheus's Little Life Haven Dungeon] and both dungeons have been successfully merged!]
[The Energy of both dungeons is being shared, a dungeon expansion through the [Territory] of [Grand Forest] and the [Cilane Kingdom] is going to take place]
[Expanding…]
[Complete]
"Uwah! Those earthquakes were so fun, mommy!" said Vudia, completely unaware that most of the citizens of this dungeon were cowering in fear.
"Indeed, it made my heart race for a moment…" said Zehe.
"Is everything okay with the rest, gu?" asked Rimuru.
"Yeah, no one up there freaked out… well, the Centaur Sisters screamed a little bit, but everyone is fine, and they are currently grilling meat"
"We should hurry up or they will eat everything!" protested Ailine, she was not willing to let others eat the entire Boss.
"Alright, let me see the Dungeon Stats and then we'll go with the rest, Ailine… System, show me this Dungeon's Status"
Ding!

"Ahh… it received a lot of upgrades despite fusing itself with a mediocre dungeon… Well, it was made by a Demigod"
Aside from the upgrades, it seems that to fuse, the Dungeon back home had to expand itself through the underground for several kilometers… meaning that if I continue merging faraway dungeons like this, wouldn't the entire continent be filled with underground dungeons then…?
Although we should test if we can even enter them through the underground if they don't have any entrance… it should be fine for the most part, I assume… but this could also mean that in the future, I could shape the entire Realm as a gigantic Dungeon.
As we had everything finished in here, we went up the stairs and had a nice dinner with my family. The grilled meat of this Boss was delectable and delicious, it was quite though, but it was filled with greasy and salty juices, its blood was sweet and went well with the meat.
Some of the meat that ended up being minced by Lilith was converted into hamburgers and meatballs, which were just as juicy, but had an incredible tenderness unique to hamburgers, with a large slice of Giant Ice Rabbit Milk Cheese and a soft and white bun coupled with vegetables like those that resembled lettuce and tomatoes and several sauces… it was a heavenly experience.
This was coupled with the delicious and aromatic tea of the Light Sphinxes, the sweet nectar of the Cactus Fruits, and Walking Cactus Wine, which was spicy and sweet, going perfectly with the meat.
I used this opportunity to drink the EXP Potions that I obtained just recently, differently than the previous one that granted five billion, this one, which granted fifteen billion, had a stronger sour flavor, accompanied by a spicy hint akin to liquor. It went very well with the meat... am I repeating this line too much?
Not a single part of the boss was spared, as Valentia, Amiphossia, and Nesiphae devoured the hard bones as if they were cookies and so did I.
[Kireina] gained 15.000.000.000 EXP!]

In the Divine Realm of Morpheus, the Demigod of Horses and Centaurs, three gods were admiring the figure of Kireina through a crystal sphere.
Morpheus, the owner of the Divine Realm felt the connection he had with his dungeon become dimmer… however, his connection was not completely severed as he thought it would be, considering what had happened to Omgramid, the God of Sand and Earth, he had expected a similar outcome, which was completely losing the dungeon and a big chunk of his soul and Divine Energy, but such thing did not happen to him.
"Hmm? I didn't feel any pain either, it was as if I was embraced by something, and now that 'something' had made my connection dimmer to my dungeon while establishing another connection with me…" Morpheus muttered.
"Grr! I can't believe you have established a connection with Kireina-sama before me! This is outrageous! You don't know how lucky you are, Morpheus!" shouted Agatheina, frustrated over something that she misunderstood.
Levana stopped her grandmother before she strangled Morpheus with her powerful superhuman strength of the Ancestor of all Vampires.
"Calm down, grandmother! I'm sure that Morpheus didn't intend to do that! And I think you're misunderstanding things!"
"L-Let me go! I'm going to show him a few things!" Agatheina shouted.
Morpheus laughed with his usual calm demeanor, though cold sweat dripped through his neck.
"Haha, Agatheina-san, please calm down… It's not a romantic connection of the sorts… it feels as if I was enslaved by Kireina… partially"
"E-Enslaved?!" shouted Agatheina and Levana at the same time.
"But how can a mortal enslave a Demigod?!" roared Levana, bewildered.
"H-How dare you to say that being enslaved by Kireina-sama is not something good?! I would pay my four limbs to be enslaved by her!" shouted Agatheina, baring her fangs.
"H-Huh?! I think I made things worst!" said Morpheus, as he stood up and moved to a safe distance from the enraged Goddess of Blood.
After things calmed down, Morpheus and Agatheina were able to discuss things more peacefully… Levana was in the middle of the two, ready to stop her grandmother whenever she went insane again.
"Ahem… Now that things are more peaceful… let's discuss what had just happened…" muttered Levana, while looking at Morpheus's emerald eyes.
"Well, I already told you… Kireina did something different compared to last time with Omgramid, she didn't completely infuse her Soul into the Dungeon Core, but only partially… this ended up in not changing the whole nature of it, so my connection with it remained, but I am unable to do anything with it without her permission, it seems" Morpheus said.
"Can you still get Divine Energy from it, brother?" asked Levana, as she glared at Agatheina's silent eyes.
"Yes, more or less… but the quantity of it has diminished… I also felt a little bit 'restraint', although I am sure that Kireina cannot order me to do anything yet… I think that there is some kind of connection between us as if she 'owned me' as if I were the Dungeon… it seems like a very passive form of Slavery through the System… perhaps whenever she reaches true godhood, she will be able to order me things more easily…"
"Uwah… and you don't mind?" asked Levana.
"Haha… I've already given up everything to save my children, I do not mind… as long as I can keep them safe and made them prosper, I will gladly become Kireina's slave," Morpheus said, with an honest smile, that of a man who had great benevolence and put his life after his loved ones. If by giving his life, he could save his children, he would.
"I-I see…" muttered Levana.
"Well, at the very least, you understand Kireina-sama greatness, Morpheus!" shouted Agatheina.
"Hahaha…" laughed Morpheus, still feeling the pressure exuded from within Agatheina's Blood Attribute Soul, which exuded a natural bloodthirst.
As the three gods slowly cleared things up, a telepathy call reached Morpheus's mind, through the bloodline of his siblings, they are capable of talking through telepathy messages.
It was Maeralya and Marnet, the demigods of Felines and Canines Beastmen, they were eager to meet with him.
Morpheus quickly opened a portal in the space of his Divine Realm, as two figures emerged from them, these were the two siblings.
"Is she done yet?" asked Maeralya.
"Y-Yes, she's done, but please, sister, give her a little time to rest, she has a great family…" said Morpheus.
"Well… I suppose it's fine… Huh?! Is that… Agatheina?!" shouted Marnet, pointing at Agatheina with his finger, which ended in a large black nail.
"Hello, little kitty and little puppy," said Agatheina, with a bewitching smile, her charm already hitting on Marnet's frail heart.
"D-Don't look at us like that!" he shouted.
"Marnet, why do you always forget things? She had already joined us, she is supporting Kireina, her whole family of children are in her care after all" said Maeralya.
"Come on, you're a dog, but your memory is that of a bird…!" said Agatheina, laughing maliciously.
"H-Hey!" shouted Marnet, as he was embarrassed for forgetting something that had just happened a few days ago, although he was now completely flustered over Agatheina's coquettish personality.
"Come on, brother, have some tea with us, let's discuss our plans… I also have to tell you something regarding giving away your Dungeons to Kireina…" said Morpheus, as he invited his siblings to the small 'tea party'.
