Ding!

[Congratulations! Your Soul has met the minimum requirements by surpassing 10.000.000 Soul Ether Stats!]

[Your Soul can now undergo Cosmic Soul Awakening and has become capable of forging a Cosmic Psyche, allowing you to assimilate a part of the cosmos into your Soul.]

[To proceed with your Cosmic Psyche forging, you must first bring the necessary materials.]

[You must bring three Cosmic Treasures that will become the pillars of your Cosmic Psyche and give it form and Elemental Powers.]

[You must choose three Skills, preferably powerful enough, that will also become part of your Cosmic Psyche and the pillar of their abilities.]

[And lastly, you must choose three Divine Authorities and three Daos that will become the Divine and Cosmic Essence of your Cosmic Psyche.]

I watched the system messages as I took out the key for the Cosmic Undead Dungeon again, which I had opened some time ago to explore alone. I only did the first floor though, and that already gave me a lot of EXP and some rewards.

But today we were completing it with my family, mostly the kids, especially the harpy chicks, and then use the other dungeon keys and explore just every single dungeon anyways.

"Psyche… What should I choose? My strongest Daos and Divine Authorities? The best Skills? Or… Ah, this is more important than I thought it would be!"

As I was having a dilemma with myself, my children were not going to wait for their mother to stop thinking about dumb things.

"Mommy! Are we going in or not?" wondered Scarlet.

"We want to go level up!" said Nirah.

"R-Right! I almost forgot, yeah, let's go then! Now, let's see…"

I looked at all the children, the seven harpy chicks were with us, Nirah, and Scarlet too. Fafnir, Emerald, Alucard, and Electra as well. Right, and my two shark kids, Aarae and Valentia as well.

As for my wives, there were a couple, Charlotte didn't come as she said she would be busy assessing the construction of the cosmic artifact, but mostly everyone else came.

Alice, Agatheina, Nephiana, Gaby, Altani, Lilith, Hodhyl, Faylen, and even Sakura! Yes, I brought the elusive Sakura here, I want her to grow stronger. She only wants to dedicate her duties to help the castle and the city, but I want her to do something more important than that.

"Is it okay for me to come?" wondered Sakura. "I would rather not let others waste the experience points in me…"

"Come on dear, you're my wife, why wouldn't I want to bring you here?" I said. "As my wife you are deserving of something more than just being a maid. Although I assigned you that job originally, things are different now."

"Hmmm…" she was still a bit doubtful and hesitant.

"Don't worry auntie, it's okay," Alucard petted her spider legs. "Don't be shy."

"Oh, little Alucard… Fufu, you're so little and already so reliable!" giggled Sakura, relaxing a bit after the child cheered her up. "You've raised him very well, Alice!"

"Thank you, and of course, my Alucard is a brave and gentle hearted boy, he will grow up to become a perfect vampire," Alice smiled, slightly smugly.

"Well, my child should be born soon…" said Agatheina. "Little Alucard might have a sibling to compete with…"

"Another sibling? I already have so many…!" Alucard said innocently.

"Well, I doubt it'll be possible for-"

"That's enough Alice, I know you have some rivalries but don't make the children do them for you," I said. "Little Alucard is also my son, and I won't have him having rivalries or hating his siblings for dumb reasons, okay?"

"A-Ah, yes… okay… Sorry, I didn't intend to do that! I was just… saying," Alice felt slightly surprised I stopped her rails before she went too far.

"Well said!" Nephiana said. "Alice stop being so competitive with Agatheina."

"E-Eh? But…" Alice sighed. "It is just within my nature; I can't help it."

"You can't?" Altani wondered, rising an eyebrow.

"How does that work?" Lilith wondered. "Just be nicer, sis."

"I know…" Alice said. "But still… There's a vampiric pride that I cannot let go of."

"She's not wrong," Agatheina suddenly said. "All Vampires usually have rivalries between one another. My Vampires in specific, are of a different family than Alice, which belongs to the new family Kireina created with her vampiric powers born from one of her evolutions, independently from me."

"Ah, so when families of different vampires met, there's rivalry…" I wondered. "Well, you guys still cooperate together anyways, and it's not as worse as… The Abyss Vampires."

"Of course not, our love for you surpasses any instinct of hatred," said Alice. "But let's say we do enjoy being competitive… from time to time."

"Fufu, it is fine, let her be, Kireina," said Agatheina. "We will never go too far anyways, rest assured, dear. Now, shall we go? Let's go explore a dungeon together! I don't know if I have ever joined you in such little adventures. I've heard your early family did accompany you many times, right?"

"Oh yeah, they had…" I nodded. "While we buy time for the artifact to get done so we can ascend to star eater realm, let's enjoy some dungeon crawling. After we're done with all of this, we'll have to go help everyone else outside… So I doubt we'll find much time."

I quickly used the key in my hand, piercing the empty air and opening a black and phantasmal portal.

FLUOSH!

[You have used the [Random Otherworldly Dungeon Key (SS Grade)] x1!]

[A Random Dungeon Gate has been opened!]

[The Dungeon chosen has become: {Abandoned Temple of the Lich King}: Recommended Rank: World Realm: Tier 5+]

[Until you defeat the Final Boss, you can enter and come out of the Dungeon through opening a gate using the key as you please.]

[New Monsters won't spawn, the Dungeon already has a limited, yet very large amount of foes.]

[This Dungeon has a Hidden Boss! Do you think you can find it?]

[Once you defeat the Boss and the Hidden Boss, you'll receive special Dungeon Rewards.]

"Let's go!"

I led my entire family inside, as we decided to delve into the lugubrious dungeon's interior.
