…
Chaos stats had skyrocketed! His Vitality, Mana, Strength, Agility, Stamina, and Magic had increased quite a good amount.
His Vitality had reached a nice amount at 255k… It has been approximately a week since his birth, and he had more than tripled his Vitality…
His Mana had almost doubled as well. At over 242 million… He had evolved Erebus from a measly Dungeon Core to the Chaotic Dungeon Core it had become, and he still felt strong and not weakened, so this amount of mana meant that his soul had also become stronger.
His strength had also become formidable, he could easily crush a dragon with his claws and pure strength.
His agility reached a nice amount, he was now fast enough to resemble almost a bullet when he ran.
His Stamina was high enough to receive more hits with ease! And with that Magic, all of his magic-based spells or skills would deal greater amounts of damage, while also being good at defending from it.
After Chaos walked back to the castle, he quickly made another feast as he sent some troops to hunt the monsters of the newly upgraded Dungeon, while Erebus tailed him anywhere he went…
After the night fell, everyone had a large dinner, and Erebus was presented to the rest of the people and servants, his origins were very mysterious, it was supposedly the half of a dungeon that had taken an appearance similar to a dragon in the form of a human…
And it also resembled Chaos a bit… enough to really look like his little son.
Everyone immediately began to praise Erebus as the little prince of chaos within the castle… Chaos didn't know what to think about this, but as he thought deeper, he really began to consider that this dungeon might be like his son.
He also decided to compact his miasma so he wouldn't accidentally "give birth" to more children… one was enough for now.
And even then, now that Erebus dungeon was there, it was absorbing most of the miasma, so the possibility of a new dungeon emerging was rare. Dungeons wouldn't naturally emerge next to one another, they would usually be kilometers apart from one another.
The food of today, as Chaos had eaten most of what was hunted yesterday, was endemic monsters from the new dungeon, such as High Black Hobgoblins, Greater Chaos Wyrms, and more, their taste had increased now that they had become of "higher quality" and also stronger.
However, Chaos didn't get any new Skills out of them, mostly because he had already gotten what he could from them.
"Nom… Nom… Nom…"
The little Erebus continued to eat food as if he had a bottomless stomach.
"Fufu, he is just like his father…" said Abyss with a lovely gaze, she felt like Erebus was like her adoptive son at this point.
"How is it, Erebus? Is it yummy?" asked Dura with a gentle smile.
"Yummy… It is!" said Erebus.
Chaos had Erebus sitting on his lap, he felt a bit uncomfortable, but because it was his son, he decided to let him do this privilege.
As Chaos ate, he began to wonder what had truly happened with the Dungeon Core.
As he glanced at his status, he saw that his Dungeon Core was regenerating… would it g back to being whole after some time? Then… did it meant that it could split into pieces to make new dungeons? Was this even reported before in the annals of dungeon investigation and research?
Chaos couldn't tell… It seems that Erebus was a unique existence, and he had already separated from the main dungeon, while still being part of it.
Chaos decided to see if Erebus had a status… and he had one.

<Description>
Chaos Dungeon Dragon Source is a new race of beings created through contaminating a dungeon core with miasma and the essence of the soul of a chaos dragon, while also having separated itself from its true dungeon core. The Dungeon Core had become an independent being that can move anywhere it desires and usually takes the appearance resembling the soul it shares a connection with.
It can develop abilities that Dungeon has, such as the power to create monsters, traps, and riches by using essence. Its true body is the dungeon core within it, and the rest of the body is a materialized form of the shadows and miasma within it.
…
"I see… Appraisal is very useful," thought Chaos, as he gained a greater insight of what Erebus truly was…
It seems that his first son was an incredibly unique being by itself… It could one day even create monsters, riches, and even dungeon traps… It was really like a living dungeon.
