Nothing particular happened this time since I didn''t feel like looking through the treasures.
After all, with the weight of death looming over me, I''m feeling rather nauseous

--<The dungeon''s layout can be as however you want. Constructed into a labyrinth. Into an Endless Corridor. Into a Never Ending Staircase>--
I get it already, I can do whatever I want to my own dungeon and there are no limits.
I want to ask, is there a way to close off the Dungeon Core?
--<Negative. There must be a path to the outside from the dungeon core. Else you will suffocate>--
What about covering the core with something like the cloak of invisibility?
--<That is sufficient to hide the core. But not forever>--
What about hiding the path leading to the core through some other means?
--<As long as the path Is not closed off using Dungeon Augmentation then anything is applicable>--
That''s all I want to know for now. Is there any else I need to know Mr.Tutorial?
--<Status can be used to check your DP and the condition of your Dungeons. Monsters. Treasures. Traps And Cores. Settings will allow you to modify the menu>--
Alright, any advice?
--
--
Will I be able to ask you questions outside of the tutorial?
--<Affirmative>--
Cool, all that''s left is to practice.
--

Ok, thanks.
After that, I continued to practice with these controls.
Its a shame that I cant try out the SubCore Monster.
I used my remaining time to look through the treasures and found quite a few things that I believe should be in a new section called Daily Goods.
Although I know most of these are due to my Inherent Memories, It is rather appalling seeing just what kind of stuff can exist?Unauthorized content usage: if you discover this narrative on Amazon, report the violation.
I also try augmenting the dungeon in many different ways and try to find loopholes in hiding my dungeon core but most of it failed.
During quite a few of my failures, I experienced what it means to suffocate as a dungeon.
As a dungeon I breathe mana, if the dungeon is closed off then no mana can get to my dungeon core.
I tried finding a loophole like using something else as a source of mana but they could only sustain me for at least 1 second or 10 seconds at most.
I went into treasures to find any guidebooks to help me, and surprisingly there were a lot of helpful guidebooks
Too bad I can''t take them with me outside the tutorial.
I can purchase them again but the cost would be massive.
In here everything is illusionary or from what I heard from Mr.Tutorial.
It''s like Mr.Tutorial said this is like a sandbox dimension, but nothing here is truly real.
--<This is just a simple tutorial for teaching newborn Dungeons Spirits>--
Dungeon Spirit?, is that what I am right now?
--<Correct>--
I have already confirmed what kind of existence I am at the moment.
And this practice is getting rather tiring.
Mr.Tutorial, can you tell me the history of great dungeons?
--<Certainly. Which dungeon would you like to hear about? Demon Lords Castle?>--
--<Heaven Suppressing Sky Fortress? Dragons Nest? Hell''s Imperial Prison?>
What are with those names?, they don''t sound like dungeons at all but Boss Zones.
--<Dungeons don''t necessarily need ''Dungeon'' in their name, and their names can be changed as time goes on. These Dungeons got their name from their Keepers>--
--<Demon Lord''s Castle''s Keeper was the Demon Lord>--
--<Heaven Suppressing Sky Fortress''s Keeper was the Immortal>--
--<Dragons Nest''s Keeper was the Dragon>--
--<Hell''s Imperial Prison''s Keeper was the Devil>--
Forget boss zone, they are super boss zones!.
But they perished in the end Right?
--<Correct>--
How did they perish? From the name of the keeper, it should be difficult to defeat even the Keeper
--<Correct. The keepers were never defeated in their peak form>--
...huh?
--<However if the dungeon core they are guarding is destroyed then they will Weaken Naturally. They were all tricked and were stalled for time. Enough time for the populace to search and destroy the dungeon core resulting in all the monsters birthed to lose power. Including the keepers. As these former keepers gradually lost their powers. They were defeated in this ever-weakening state>--
So as long as the dungeon core survives the birthed monsters will flourish but losing the dungeon core
results in all birthed monsters to continue weakening until death.
--
--
If that''s the case then wouldn''t dungeon spirits live as far away from the populace as possible? Even that sky fortress can move around right?
--<Correct. However, If a dungeon grew too powerful then it may eclipse the planet. It won''t just affect the populace but other dungeon spirits will be affected as well>--
No Choice but to Attack before then huh.
--<The result is a dual effort on the Populace and Dungeon Spirits to destroy one dungeon before becoming too powerful>--
Meaning I can''t trust even other dungeon spirits huh.
Looks like I can only rely on myself.
Just want to ask but, have there been any friendship between Dungeon Spirits?
--<Many have appeared in the past but all of them results in betrayal due to fear of the other>--
...
Being told that dungeon spirits are like this makes me wonder, why are Dungeon Spirits even born?
--<Insufficient data to answer>--
So Mr.Tutorial doesn''t even know.
Just one last question. What happens to enslaved dungeon spirits?
--<They are destroyed before becoming too powerful, or commit suicide through Core Explosion>--
Suicide?, That''s possible?
--<Sorry. This option is not visible in the tutorial. You may view it and select it outside the tutorial>--
Darn.
