Nefertiti looked at me with scorn, she was clearly angered, most likely because we killed half of her people. Well, they attacked us first, right?

The beautiful dog-eared woman glanced at me with her golden eyes, her face showed mixed feelings between confusion, anger, and slight fear.

”From where have you come, dragon?! Are you a product of this Dungeon? Answer me!”

”How about you present yourself first? Iʼm quite intrigued about you”

Nefertiti gnashed her teeth as my words dropped because I was releasing my pressuring Aura while saying them, she was naturally intimidated.

”I-Intrigued…?! So, youʼre not born from this Dungeon… And my name? I am Nefertiti, the Master of this small city… Iʼm a Light Spirit. My origins, I shall not reveal them to you without knowing more about your origins as well… However, what you and your underlings have done have greatly enraged me!”

”Nefertiti… I figured that was your name, your citizens always yell that name when they die”

Nefertiti gnashed her teeth once again, almost shattering them if she wasnʼt a Spirit. Her light aura expanded wildly, showing her discomfort and anger.

”Why have you killed my people? If you arenʼt from the Dungeon, then whatʼs your purpose?! You donʼt know how long has it taken me to raise these beings! Just for you to kill half of them in seconds! Give me a good reason why I shouldnʼt just kill you!”

”A good reason? Well, because I can just kill you first…”

I expanded my Aura once again while releasing the hundreds of coiled dragons made of the phantom, their intimidating glares penetrated Nefertitiʼs soul as she quickly understood that she wasnʼt the one in charge here, although powerful, the Light Spirit woman wasnʼt remotely at my level.

”Tsk…! W-Who are you?! Answer me truly, and I may consider a negotiation…”

Oh, she is clearly not stupid, good girl, she knows her place at the very least. It would have been a pain to kill such a beauty, maybe forcefully enslaving her, but Iʼve never tried that on Spirits before and it may end up killing her instead.

”Negotiation… Good, you know your place well, Nefertiti. You may call me Kireina, I am the Realm Menace of Lust. I have come to conquer this Dungeon, which we call the [Forsaken Labyrinth] with my family, those ”underlings” that you see down there, they are my family, so be more respectful of them…! If not…”

Nefertitiʼs golden eyes opened wide as she began to sweat intensively, her heart started to beat with great force as her aura became smaller now, concentrating on her chest.

”I-I see… My apologies, Kireina… I wasnʼt… aware of that information… Now that you have given me your name and purpose, I think itʼs a good idea to move to negotiations instead of pointless slaughter… We could reach something that could benefit us both!”

Nefertiti shamelessly showed a sudden friendly behavior and was even giving me a very fake smile. Her face was expressive, this woman does not know how to mask her emotions at all.

Seeing how her Aura had suddenly shrunk and her personality became more submissive, I decided to accept her offer. However, a metallic Dragon cannot easily negotiate with someone inside of a palace, so I had to deactivate my Armor and Transformation.

My armor suddenly became smaller and was slowly absorbed by my flesh, when the armor suddenly disappeared, my flesh body was revealed, while wearing my set of equipment, surprising Nefertiti.

”Ah… Dragonoid?”

I suddenly realized by Nefertitiʼs words that just like last time, I had turned into a Thunder Dragonoid, I was around five meters tall as well, my arms, legs, and back were covered in purple, golden and red scales, I had a thick long tail over my butt and my two goat-like horns turned into a spiky crown of thorns that pierced the air.

”Oh, this is just an after effect of my transformation, watch closely…”

I quickly transformed into a Red Slime, shocking Nefertiti even more, I molded my body and slowly went back to my Fairy form, an unparalleled beauty met another, Nefertitiʼs eyes shined brightly, admiring my appearance.

”A shapeshifter…? Fellow Kireina is that your original form…?”

”Indeed, now letʼs go to a nicer place”

Nefertiti admired every inch of my body with an amazing look, but was suddenly awoken by my words, then she flew through the air while showing me the direction towards her golden palace, which was in the middle of the Oasis.
