Volume Two [Updates 3x Weekly]
Life has been complicated for Violet ever since she reincarnated into a world of monsters and magic. First she ends up in charge of her own dungeon only to end up forced to accept a handicap she unwittingly inflicted u...
Violet took calming breaths, trying her best to calm herself down. Having a panic attack was hardly going to help her right now and she hardly wanted the dungeon core to corrupt again. What would Theodore think of her? Letting herself get worked up over every little thing. It wasn't like David had broken the contract or else he would have immediately suffered the consequences.
Pacing anxiously, back and forth, Violet pulled up the details of the contract she had made with David. She read it over, again and again, but there wasn't actually that much text to go over. This was hardly a lawyer's contract. No, this was kept sweet and simple with very clear points and relying on the fact that Theodore could always take further action of his own accord.
The contract prevented her from putting [Traps] anywhere but in the hallway directly in front of her dungeon core room on the first floor. Now that it was on the second floor, that meant she could no longer put [Traps] on the first floor at all. There had been a contingency for if she had [Traps] when she unlocked the next floor where the [Traps] would automatically be moved to the next floor. That hadn't been necessary, but Violet knew that was just because she had made a rather strange choice to not use any [Traps] on the floor in the first place.
There was also a bit about how Violet couldn't intentionally incite a [Monster] stampede to attack David's daughter or otherwise intentionally harm her with physical violence until she became her species's equivalent of an adult. Since she was a human, that would mean the girl would be safe until she was eighteen, but Violet hoped it would never be necessary to harm the girl. It was interesting to note, though, that Violet had accidentally incited her [Monsters] to attack David yesterday, which hadn't come with any consequences. Whether that was because it was accidental or because it was directed at David, though, she wasn't sure. It certainly wasn't something she wanted to test, though.
All of that was detailed in only a few short sentences whereas the portions relating to David took up a larger portion of the text. If David killed her again, his system was meant to alert Theodore immediately as well as implement consequences right away. There was some jargon with code Violet didn't understand relating to what those consequences were listed in the contract. Then there were details about how extreme the training could be. David was supposed to keep the training to reasonable levels of violence that weren't allowed to exceed the difficult training the royal knights of the Deepvein Kingdom go through. Any intentional injuries worse than what could be healed by the weakest healing potion were off-limits.
There were also requirements for David to show up every day to conduct training. Violet was allowed to dismiss him at any point in time and was not required to come to him. He would have to seek her out, if necessary. Then there was a bit about how David had to bring Violet tribute every day and specific tribute, up to the value that could be obtained from her dungeon from one day's worth of gathering, upon request. The contract finished off with it being noted that Theodore could take further action and require David to sign a new contract should it become necessary with the current contract being valid for one year.
Violet still felt uneasy about things, but she needed time to think things over. She didn't want to hide away in the dungeon core room all night, though. So, instead, she decided to try and distract herself. In particular, she decided tonight would be as good a time as any to spoil her pixies. Striding into the mystery falls room, she announced
"I'm going to gather the others for a tea party. We'll have it in here tonight, so please prepare yourselves!"
Aster and Hawthorn could easily hear her voice, even over the roar of the waterfall that stood between their home and the other side of the river where Violet was. So, they immediately began to get ready. Meanwhile, Violet continued to travel through her rooms one at a time. She gathered all of the others from their rooms and led them back to the mystery falls room. Then she summoned up a huge feast of sweets and tea, making it far grander than she usually would.
The pixies immediately began to feast, excitedly chattering amongst themselves as they did so. Violet smiled, happy to be surrounded by such overwhelming positivity. She still didn't feel quite right, but this would have to do, for now. It took a while for her mana to fill up all the way, but she spent several hours with her pixies summoning new homes for them one by one. Once she had five of them, she announced
"Good news! Everyone is getting a home tonight! I've got one for Jasmine, Daisy, Iris, Orchid, and then one for Cedar and Lily to share. I know you two are twins and like to spend your time together Iris and Orchid, but I don't want you to feel like you can't have your privacy. Maybe one day there will be cute boy pixies who join the dungeon that you like. Even if you can't start families of your own the traditional way, you should still feel free to get married or whatever else you want. Forever is a long time and we should all try our best to make it worthwhile."
The two newest additions felt quite touched as they excitedly looked over the new homes. They were all identical, the dungeon system ensuring that there weren't even minor details that would differ, but it was still exciting nonetheless. Iris and Orchid definitely did enjoy each other's company, but the thought of being able to continue to live their lives without being held back by their contract with the dungeon was incredible! Neither was sure they'd ever get lucky enough to meet the perfect husband in a dungeon, but it was still nice to have the option.
Really, Miss Violet was already quite strange for a Dungeon Master. Despite the fact that none of them could do much of use, she had seen to it that they could serve just as they were. They were given puzzles and challenges to overlook and told they could help in the spring by going out to forage. There were also far more of them who had been summoned to the dungeon than they could have ever hoped. Yet, here their master was saying she would continue to bring more of them into the dungeon. If that was true, soon they'd practically have enough of them spread out across the dungeon to amount to an entire village of them.
Violet listened as the pixies talked amongst themselves. The fact that they felt free to speak their minds, even in front of her, was heartwarming. It was nice to know that they trusted her and felt at home here. She hoped that would always continue. Their relationship still didn't quite feel like they were equals, but it was still something she was fond of and she never wanted that to change.
