After having defeated the Boss of the Labyrinth, Ervas and Veronica found a large pile of treasures within Grakgna's nest, where he had accumulated all the riches that the Dungeon would sometimes generate, alongside anything that the adventurers he once fought against carried.

Amongst the treasures, there were piles of gold and precious jewels and metals, pieces of armor of all kinds, high-quality weapons from many adventurers that once tried to defeat him, alongside even potions, and other items.

Veronica in specific glanced at everything with a bit of voracity, as many pieces of armor and weapons could be absorbed, many of them were infused with some kind of special ability, like the ability to release slashes of flames amongst many others, which she quickly decided to save up inside of her body through Space Expansion for later.

Amongst the many treasure chests containing interesting treasures that were distributed evenly around everyone, there was also a new, and a very shiny treasure chest that had just popped out of thin air.

"This one… Did it appear when we killed Grakgna?

" asked Ervas.

"It seems so… I wonder what's inside, another armor set?!

" asked Veronica as she licked her phantasmal lips.

"How interesting… Although it is rather sad that items are not bound into the System, or they could be even more amazing…

" said Kireina.

Ervas slowly opened the chest, as what was inside was finally revealed…

"A Crystal ball?

" asked Ervas.

"A Crystal ball…

" said Veronica.

"A Crystal ball…

" said Kireina, as she grabbed it and inspected it with her crimson eyes.

It was just a crystal ball, of a pale brown color.

"So this is the prize, a Crystal ball… Can you Appraise it?

" asked Kireina.

"Yes… Eh?

" asked Ervas.

"What?

" asked Kireina.

"What is this? It says… 'Sealed Dragon God'…

" said Veronica.

"Yes… It says just that…

" said Ervas.

"Eh? No way, there is an actual Dragon God inside?

" asked Kireina.

"Does Grakgna know something?

" asked Veronica.

Grakgna who was near the three seemed puzzled.

"N-No… I had no idea that an actual Dragon God was being sealed in this Dungeon…

" said Grakgna.

"Then this could be a good opportunity for you two to get stronger! Eat it!

" said Kireina.

"…No, I believe that it would be better to wake him up and recruit him as an ally!

" said Ervas.

"Bah, but that's boring…

" said Kireina.

"It's not boring to have new friends, Kireina…

" said Veronica with a bitter smile, Kireina was a rather villainous woman, so the first thing she thought was to actually eat the dragon before even wake him up or something.

"Fine, it's your item so do whatever you want with it… Hm, want me to wake it up?

" asked Kireina.

"You can do that?

" asked Ervas.

"But of course I can!

" said Kireina proudly, puffing her chest.

"Very well then, give it a shot,

" said Veronica, giving the crystal ball back to Kireina, as she glanced at it quite voraciously…

"D-Don't eat it though…

" said Ervas.

"Don't worry~ I am containing myself, my main body is already doing a lot of God-eating for me, fufu,

" laughed Kireina, as she used her hands to release a pink essence that enveloped the crystal ball.

"What are you doing?

" asked Ervas.

"Yeah, what's that?

" asked Veronica.

Kireina kept infusing pink essence until she began to infuse a darker essence.

"I used the Dream Attribute Spell, Infuse Nightmare to scare him out, and then, I employed the Chaos Attribute Spell, Order Reversal, to reverse the order of the item and force the scared guy out,

" said Kireina.

"Did you need to scare him though?

" asked Ervas.

"Y-Yeah…

" said Veronica.

"Of course! It was completely necessary for the sake of research! After all, he was deep in his slumber, he needed to get woken up fast, right? So I scared him out! Simple as that…

" said Kireina, as the crystal ball began to tremble, dropping into the floor!

Clash!

The crystal ball did not broke or anything, but a Divine Essence began to leak out of it like gas, Ervas, Veronica, and Kireina leaped back as they glanced at the being form itself, slowly escaping its prison.

"Oooh, he's quite the big guy…!

" said Kireina excitedly.

"He doesn't look that different from Grakgna…

" said Ervas.

"Indeed, maybe he used to be an Earth Dragon?

" asked Veronica.

The Dragon God finally showed up, roaring furiously.

His body was similar to all the previous Earth or Rock Dragons, resembling an enormous turtle covered in hard rock and metallic scales, large black claws, and an enormous jaw filled with razor-sharp teeth, alongside twelve golden eyes and a crown of golden horns, which differentiated him from Grakgna enough.

"W-What was that!? I had the worst dream ever! Man… What the heck is up with that- Eh?

"

The dragon noticed that he was not inside his crystal ball anymore, glancing at his surroundings.

His appearance seemed completely physical, but he was also ethereal at the same time, floating in midair and defying physics.

"Hi?

" said Ervas.

"Well, hello there, mister Dragon God!

" said Veronica.

"What's your name?

" asked Kireina.

"…Eeeeeh?! I am out?! What?! But I was… just there a second ago! And who are you three?! That kid looks so creepy! And that… is that a Living Armor?! And is that a fairy?! Why does she have the air of a terrible monster?!

" asked the dragon, floating a few meters away.

"Hi…

" said Grakgna, appearing right beside the dragon god.

"GYAAAA! A GHOST!

" cried the dragon god, flying away from Grakgna.

"…Eh? Is he really a God?!

" asked Grakgna in complete disbelief.

"Could you calm down? We got you outside of your cage, you should be actually quite grateful,

" said Kireina.

"Grateful?! Why would I be?! I was perfectly happy in there! I sealed myself on purpose!

" said the dragon god.

"…Eh?

" asked Ervas.

"You… sealed yourself on purpose…?

" asked Veronica.

"Yeah!

" said the dragon god.

"…Why?

" asked Ervas, Veronica, and Kireina at the same time.

The Dragon God glanced at the three with a bit of strangeness, until he realized that what he said sounded pretty weird already…

"A-Ah, don't get me wrong! I am not some weirdo… I was only tired of this world of war! Two factions of Gods were fighting and shacking everything! Do you know how dangerous it was? And to make it worse, there was this weird Demon God King beating everyone to death! Do you know how scary all of that was?! I then decided to create this Dungeon and sealed myself inside a crystal ball… Whenever I wake up, the war would be over and- Wait, is it over already?!

" asked the dragon god.

"Yes…

" said Ervas.

"It has been over for a few hundred years already…!

" said Veronica.

"O-Oh, **…

" said the dragon god.

"Yeah, it seems that you overslept a lot there, well, bad luck for you because you're working for us now, you want it or not,

" said Kireina.

"T-That's…! Well, fine, I guess this is my destiny, huh?

" asked the Dragon God.

"Could you finally tell us your name?

" asked Ervas.

"Yeah, spit it out, we cannot address you properly without a name,

" said Veronica.

"Say your name,

" said Kireina.

"My name! Okay… you three are pretty dense there… calm down, I am not going anywhere… My name is Araba! I am the Dragon God of the Underground!

" said the Dragon God, Araba.

"Underground? That's your Divinity? So lame…

" said Kireina.

"It's not lame! I can actually do a lot of amazing things! I built up this whole labyrinth myself!

" said Araba.

"Hm, that might prove to be useful…

" said Ervas.

"Oh yeah… Interesting…

" said Veronica, as Araba began to sweat intensively by the glares of the two split souls, it was as if they were directly glancing at his soul!
