Ding!
[The Dungeon Facility [Coral Golems Castle (C Grade)] has been placed successfully above an Island. The Castle's surroundings have transformed into a [Magic Coral Forest], where valuable magical coral will grow and can be mined for materials. The interior of the Castle has shaped itself completely and has now begun to slowly form its Golem Guardians! The Coral Golem Guardian King is also slowly being formed out of the castle's own materials.]
As I received that message, I finished eating my mango as I threw out whatever was left into the island's floor, entering the castle by opening its huge coral-made doors, the first thing I saw was a beautiful, crystal-like interior, reflecting the light of the sun outside.
It looked like I had entered into a beautiful world of rainbows, it was almost mystical and majestic. This place would surely be loved by many, I could even make it my home.
"Oh, these must be the golems!" Alice said, quickly pointing at the other side of the corridor. "Come! It's in here!"
"Huh?" I quickly followed her while leaving a bit of water on each of my footsteps because I was still quite wet from taking a dip underwater.
And then, we reached a long corridor, where we could see strange, humanoid-like golems slowly being formed out of the walls. They looked like huge sets of colorful coral-made armor, unlike the Coral Golems of the Fishman King Dungeon.
"So here they are…" I said. "How long until they are created? They seem much more complex than the other monsters."
[The [Dungeon System] explains that because these Golems are very powerful, and this castle produces them constantly to protect it, they're part of the castle itself. After a few weeks, they might be born. Not only they need plenty of Mana, which you can supply easily, but the formation of tough coral takes time.]
"I-I see…" I nodded, suddenly taking out Sapphire. "Summon Golem."
I summoned the [Ice Golem Guardian] from Sapphire, who was formerly a Coral Golem that could summon a single huge coral golem.
"GRUOOH!"
The Ice Golem emerged instantly, exuding the power of a strong Tier 6 Monster. It was not bad at all, and now that the Skill Level was fairly High, I could summon two more!
"Comparing this guy with those, its clear this castle's golems are much larger though." I nodded, examining, and comparing golems. "Though, your kids are pretty strong too, Sapphire. I wonder if they could evolve again as you do?"
"I am surprised they didn't become something like Dark Golems or other things after you helped me evolve through all of that darkness I ended absorbing in a forced upgrade." Sapphire wondered. "Well, once I evolve for real with your help, maybe they'll get a new upgrade. Though a few of my skills have already evolved. Also, is it necessary to call them my kids, Master? They're just golems you'll dispose of eventually!"
"Hahaha, well, but it's kind of like you give birth to them, no?" I laughed. "But yeah, you're right, my bad~"
"That only makes it weirder!" Sapphire complained.
"What's so wrong with what she said, you grumpy shield?!" Scarlet started barking back at Sapphire. "Was getting all the spotlight you got in that huge fight made you get cocky or something? Don't get ahead of yourself!"
"Shut up Scarlet, you don't have the right to complain, also I'm sure you're just jealous." Sapphire laughed.
"What did you said?! I am not jealous, you stupid shield! You kept breaking so much that Master had to use all her upgrade stones on your useless ass!" Scarlet barked.
Sword and shield started floating in midair, clashing against one another while insulting each other. Their rivalry was quite something!
"Hey, please stop it already…" I facepalmed. "Both of you are getting swallowed by Glutton as punishment! Reflect about this inside his belly!"
"GRAAAWR! BAARF!"
Glutton happily munched both living weapons as he swallowed them whole, and then he went back into my Soul Scape.
"That'll teach them a good lesson about fighting between allies." I nodded, crossing my arms. "Anyways! I need a bath now, a warm one, today we could take a break and relax by checking on the Fishman King's Dungeon and get a bunch of new stuff for this dungeon floor! Oh, we could also check the Emerald Forest and introduce the trees over there on the first floor too!"
"That sounds like an excellent idea!" Alice nodded. "Let's go on a relaxing adventure to unwind a bit!"
Like that, I stepped outside of my Dungeon while looking at its Stats.

Oh, this is nicer than I thought! Thanks to the facilities, I got a lot of additional EXP! And also my Dungeon Energy is regenerating even quicker. Aside from purchasing things, this Dungeon Energy can be used to upgrade Facilities into higher Ranks, expand a Dungeon Floor's size, and add new types of monsters and plants.
"Looks good, let's wake up Aquarina now…" I stealthily jumped over her while she was sleeping in bed.
"Uwaaaah?! Sylphy?"
"Good morning sunshine! Let's go take a bath! It's a brand-new day outside!"
