Rebirth of the Strongest Dungeon Master

Isaac watched the battle between humans and monsters come to an end.

"Adelia did her job well. Now we know what kind of person our new puppet is."

The dungeon master smiled with satisfaction. He then realized that, since the attack had begun, Byakko had made no sound at all. This made Isaac think of testing his observation skills.

"Byakko, what do you think about this attack?"

The spiritual beast incarnate turned her attention to her master. She seemed to pause for a moment, thinking of an answer.

"Hmm... in my opinion, this attack has been orchestrated from the start."

That short answer did not quite satisfy the dungeon master. "Of course. That's for sure. Adelia is helping the humans. Can you give a more specific answer."

Byakko took a deep breath. She began to explain her observations in more detail.

This was to test Zhang Gang. Unlike other humans, that man had no Seed of Mind in his head. So Isaac could not have full control of him.

In a stressful situation, a person would bring out his true nature. Hence, he needed to see what decision that man would choose in a precarious situation. Would he be able to improvise a sudden plan? Did he abandon his troops? Did he keep fighting? Did he remain loyal?

Isaac needed to see it for himself. Indeed, her actions were very risky, but she was not doing this without reason. At some point, he would need more human power. While the slots of the Seed of Mind were very limited. He needed the experience of controlling an unpredictable creature; a creature that could not be fully controlled.

Zhang Gang was the first to be selected.

"So, that's my explanation, my lord," Byakko said.

Isaac nodded. "You're right."

The white tiger incarnate woman smiled as she puffed out her chest. She was a spiritual beast who had lived for thousands of years. Of course this was nothing.

However, the smile on her face quickly disappeared.

"But, some things you missed."

Byakko frowned.

"There is another purpose for this attack."

The first objective was Fedorov's debut.

After the press conference and the collapse of the first dungeon in Tianjin, the world already knew that there was a master figure of the dungeon. Fedorov led this attack by disguising himself as Isaac to proclaim as the dungeon master.

In other words, Fedorov took his place.

The second objective was to foster hatred for the dungeon master.

"But, some things you missed."

Byakko frowned visibly.

"There is another purpose for this attack."

The first objective was Fedorov's debut.

After the press conference and the collapse of the first dungeon in Tianjin, the world already knew that there was a ruler of the dungeon. Fedorov led this attack by disguising himself as Isaac to proclaim as the dungeon master.

In other words, Fedorov took his place.

The second objective was to foster hatred for the dungeon master.

The hunters who were in the bloody wedding will forever remember this tragedy. There were thousands of humans killed. This will fuel their hatred for the dungeon master. They would seek to avenge the deaths of their comrades. They no longer climb for money, but for revenge.

Besides, after listening to the false testimony spoken by Adelia, they were convinced that elves and humans had a common enemy. They would think they had an ally in the dungeon climb.

This sounds a little crazy, but it's effective in motivating the hunter to climb to higher floors. Thus, zenny would flow into Isaac's pockets.

"Oo..."

Byakko gaped at Isaac's scheme. Although she hadn't thought this far ahead.

Isaac made a fatal risky move, but at the same time delegated it to someone else.

"My lord, I may have lived for thousands of years. But never thought that far ahead. It is my good fortune to be under your shelter."

Byakko looked down. Although his words sounded flattering, he actually couldn't wait to see what interesting thing Isaac created next.

"Commander!"

Then, a Russian accented voice rang out in the middle of their conversation. A man with a demonic mask and hair like black flames appeared.

"Fedorov!"

Isaac called the man's name excitedly. Meanwhile, Fedorov knelt down with his eyes on the floor.

"You did your job well. You were able to refrain from getting them killed."

A smile appeared on the dungeon master's face. He helped the man to his feet, Fedorov still keeping his head down.

Byakko watched that man with a compassionate gaze.

Isaac removed the mask from his face. The dashing face of the former elite soldier looked stern.

Isaac patted him on the shoulder.

"From now onwards, your task will be quite tough. You must be able to hold out for as long as possible."

Fedorov struck a salute pose. "Yes, commander."

Isaac widened his smile with a sigh.

His attention returned to the Elven Village, watching the elves and humans helping each other. His plan to control mainland China is getting closer.

After the bloody tragedy that killed thousands of hunters, light shone again in the Radiant Forest. The Elven Village appeared to be in disarray.

The elves rebuilt the village. They leveled the sticking ground. They rebuilt the destroyed tree houses. They removed trees that had fallen due to lightning strikes. They didn't work alone, humans helped them.

The hunters have made a good relationship with the elves. Some are like brothers and stay at the tree house. Some brought food from earth into the dungeon. Some even invited them out, although they refused. Since the events of the past three days, their relationship has grown stronger.

At least that's what the humans thought.

The humans already consider the elves as part of them, even though the elves think otherwise.

Isaac observed the view of the village from the balcony of one of the tree houses. He was wearing a long black coat with a hood covering his face.

He felt the presence of someone behind him.

"My Lord, Zhang Gang is here," said Adelia.

Isaac sighed, then he entered the treehouse.

In a small room with various leaf ornaments in it, there was a table and a pair of chairs opposite each other.

Isaac sat in one of the chairs. Adelia stood next to him.

Not long after, a gray-haired man appeared in the room. Displeasure was visible on his face.

Isaac invited the man to sit down.

"You did not wear your mask last night, my lord."

The sarcastic tone was clearly heard from Zhang Gang. Adelia quickly frowned. Behind her waist, the woman clenched a fist.

Meanwhile, Isaac was not bothered at all. ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛ｏ𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂

"I know you have a lot to complain about the other day. The sudden plan. No notice. Maybe this surprises you."

"And the slaughter of humans," Zhang Gang added. His face looked sour when he said it.

"Watch your mouth, Mr. Zhang Gang."

Adelia took on a threatening tone.

Zhang Gang would not be surprised by the temperament of the beautiful woman. He already knew her true nature.

Isaac raised his hand, signaling not to interfere.

The high elf fell silent while bowing his head.

"I know you have a lot of disappointments that you harbor. But last night's events were necessary to unite elves and humans. They need to take the existence of the dungeon master seriously as soon as possible. In addition, last night's events had a very positive effect on the Blood Oath Guild. Isn't it?"

Hissing, Zhang Gang had a wry look when he heard the explanation from Isaac. He could not deny it. Thanks to the bloody wedding feast tragedy, over the past few days, his guild had become the talk of the town. Blood Oath became the number one trending topic in the Hunter Society forum.

Nevertheless, the man did not agree with Isaac's words.

"I'm sure there are still other options than sacrificing hundreds of drunken hunters."

Isaac sighed. "Sorry, I thought you were used to sacrificing humans. Like when you recruited dozens of hunters in Elven Village to work on our level IX mission."

Zhang Gang gasped. The man squeezed his hands while grinding his teeth. He did not expect that there would be people who knew his secret.

In the end, he had to admit his hypocrisy. His emotions calmed down as he sighed.

"So, what business does the dungeon master have calling here?" asked Zhang Gang matter-of-factly.

Isaac smiled.

"I have already evaluated last night. You are worthy of being our ally. As promised, I will supply the Blood Oath Guild with quality weapons made by our dwarves. Therefore, it is time for us to carry out the contents of the agreement."

Zhang Gang shrugged his shoulders.

Isaac snapped his fingers. Adelia then handed several sheets of paper to Zhang Gang. The middle-aged man seemed to raise one of his eyebrows.

The dungeon master observed Zhang Gang reading the contents of the document. Shortly afterwards he placed it on the table while stroking his forehead.

The Blood Oath Guild leader seemed to be silent for a long time.

"This is crazy. This is tantamount to suicide. Of all the dungeons, you want me to enter this most dangerous one?"

Hearing the frustrated tone from Zhang Gang, Isaac smiled widely.

"Right."
