Chapter 112: Ch 112: Evil (3)
Just telling Rein about how she was trapped by the dungeon was not the end of Sanakya's story. She had more things to tell him, especially about how this dungeon actually worked.
...
After she was teleported inside the dungeon, she found herself inside a dark place with nothing around. There the will of the dungeon itself started to talk with her. Sanakya realised that the will of the dungeon was not very mature. It was a little like a kid, a very evil kid.
The reason why it was trapping people who had held a position similar to that of a god was because at its birth, a theme was chosen for this dungeon by its unconscious self. And the theme it chose for itself was to a place where the challengers could fight against gods.
But the dungeon itself was unable to fully understand the concept of a god so in order to fulfill its objectives, the dungeon started to kidnap the type of people who had been in the position of being something like a god.
Even though the mentality of the dungeon was like that of a child, it's intelligence was not low. So it started to use various schemes to get its hands on people who were like gods. The special soul technique that Sanakya has found was one such technique. The god-like beings were like toys for it that this dungeon was trying to collect.
Sanakya was one of the few people whose soul was not completely under the control of this evil dungeon. Her tamed monsters were the reason behind that. As they had sacrificed their soul to protect Sanakya, the dungeon was able to only take over 70 percent of her soul.
But as time passed, Sanakya was losing ground against the dungeon. The process was extremely slow but she was able to feel that slowly but surely she was losing control over the remaining part of her soul. It might take a long time but one day even Sanakya would also become a puppet of the dungeon.
This was something that she was unwilling to accept. That was not only because she would lose her freedom but also because alongside her the monsters who had accompanied her would also become slaves to the dungeon for forever. Sanakya was unwilling to see such a future for her friends.
That was why Sanakya did her best to find a way to solve this problem. As she was basically a part of the dungeon itself, she was able to browse through some information when the attention of the will of the dungeon was not very alerted.
Just like that after millions of years Sanakya had managed to learn a decent bit about the dungeon and what she found out made her despair. There was almost no way for her to save herself and her friend from the clutches of this evil dungeon. The best outcome she could hope for was the complete destruction of her soul as even her dying would not free her soul from the influence of the dungeon.
But destroying a soul was not easy. Actually it was extremely hard and almost no one had the capability to do it. So after making up her mind to destroy her own soul to get out of this dungeon's influence, she spent the next few hundreds of years trying to find a way to harm the soul but in the end she was still unsuccessful.
Then finally one day, she was summoned by Rein's group. They had managed to fulfil the conditions that were needed for her summoning. After coming to the area of her summoning, Sanakya saw five of useful souls before her.
Even though Sanakya was not able to learn any method to inflict damage on her soul, her efforts were not all in vain. She had managed to gain a skill called soul sight that allowed her to view everyone's soul. This skill was the reason why she was able to see five extremely powerful souls before her.
Among the five souls, one of them was extremely powerful. That soul was very much capable of destroying this whole dungeon without a problem if her judgement was not wrong. Another one of the souls was a little bit different from all the other souls but Sanakya had no idea why as she had never seen something like that before. Or did she have ? Sanakya was not sure.
Very soon she was forced to take action and she was scared and hopeful at the same time that the super powerful soul would be able to kill her. She was scared because of that and the reason why she was hopeful because she had thought that such a powerful individual might know a way to destroy her soul, which she was hoping for.
According to the knowledge that she had managed to gain in her investigations, when one of the gods connected to the dungeon died, it would be able to turn the pure soul energy of that fallen god to generate more DP and from then on that fallen god would truly be the part of the dungeon from then on without any more chance of salvation.
And as fighting and killing a God was one of the main objectives of this will of the dungeon, this act would also boost its own sense of self.
So a god getting killed was good for the dungeon and at the same time if that god ended up killing the challenger it was even better. So the dungeon was gaining from any of these outcomes. The only way for it to lose something would be if the soul of the gods got destroyed by the challenger but that was something almost impossible to happen.
As Sanakya was thinking about this information, the powerful person did not attack her and instead one of the weaker people started to fight her. Even though she called this person weaker, that was only compared to the other people who were with this person. If compared to her, this person was still very strong and she managed to trap all of them within any trouble.
Just as she was wondering why this person did not kill her and instead just trapped her, the second strongest soul with a very gentle colour approached her. When it made contact with her she felt like her condition was seen through by it and at the same time she felt calm for the first time after a long amount of time.
So when she felt that this comfortable soul was going to get away from her she started to send him some kind of message to tell him about her current condition. She felt like if she told him about her current condition then, she would be able to do something to help her.
That was how she was able to make contact with Rein and now after telling him about everything she had managed to find out in her captivity, Sanakya's soul went into a slumber because she used up too much of her soul consciousness power to inform Rein about everything.
