Epic of Vampire Dragon: Reborn as a Vampire Dragon with a System

Ding!

[You have become the Dungeon Master of this Dungeon!]

[You've created a Soul Connection with the [Dungeon Core]!]

[You learned the [Dungeon Master] and [Dungeon Plunder] Skills!]

Chaos felt like he began to slowly overflow the entire dungeon with his Mana, as the entire Dungeon started to change, it grew in size and became even bigger, monsters started to appear in large quantities, and the Dungeon Core itself doubled its size!

"It seems that you ranked up after receiving my mana. Do you feel better now?" asked Chaos.

The Dungeon Core floated in midair as it glanced at Chaos…

Flash!

"Eh?"

Suddenly, the Dungeon Core's entire body was coated in miasma and darkness, as it extended around, slowly taking… a humanoid form!

"It is taking a form?!" asked Belphegor, as he and the rest had already come down here through stairs that formed naturally when the dungeon ranked up…

"Uwah… it's small…" said Abyss.

"What's this?" wondered Dura.

"Amazing…" said Natalia.

FLASH!

The darkness and miasma materialized and took the form of a little boy, perhaps half the size of Chaos humanoid form.

The darkness dissipated as it… emerged. It resembled a tiny version of Chaos, in fact! Although it had some differences.

It had pale-white skin, an adorable and expressionless face, sharp crimson-red eyes, short silvery-white hair, and small dragon-like wings coated in black scales. It had two very small black horns growing from its forehead, and a tiny, scaled tail coming out of its back. It also had sharp black claws and his hands were coated in black scales…

Everyone skipped a beat as they saw this… mini-Chaos!

"Uwaaaah! So cute!"

Abyss was the first one to explode, seeing a tiny version of her master almost made her fall unconscious out of cuteness attack.

"T-This… My lord… This Dungeon Core has taken a human form…! This is something that is very rare! Even more… it took a form similar to yours… does it recognize you as his father because it was made from your miasma?" wondered Belphegor.

"I-I don't know but it is very cute…!" said Natalia.

"M-My lord… Is this your first son? So cute! C-Can it marry my daughter?" asked Dura.

"…It's not my son. It's a Dungeon Core. And no, it won't marry your daughter," sighed Chaos.

Every single girl began to hug and caress the little Dungeon Core, its skin and hair felt like the real thing, but he ignored them all as he glanced at Chaos.

It suddenly extended its arms and hugged Chaos's belly.

"Papa…" it said.

"P-Papa?"

Chaos felt a bit weirded out, he didn't know what to do.

Should he kick the dungeon core? No… he just hugged it, so he shouldn't be this rude against it now that he showed it affection before.

Perhaps because of this affection, it grew attached to him.

"See? My lord, it is your son! A little lord!" said Belphegor.

"A little lord…" said Chaos, petting the Dungeon Core.

"Little… Lord…" said the Dungeon Core, it seemed to be slowly learning words.

Chaos sighed as he considered simply let it be.

However…

"It requires a name though! Master, which name would you give it?" asked Lilith.

"Name… Chaos?" wondered Chaos.

"How can you give it your own name…?" sighed Ifrit.

"Well, you say it is like a little version of me," said Chaos.

"S-Something else?" wondered Abyss.

Chaos rubbed his chin as he began to think.

The little dungeon core started to flap its wings around, as he flew over the floor and reached Chaos's face.

"Papa!" it said again, as it hugged his face and kissed his forehead.

Chaos felt a comfortable warmth, the same one he felt when Abyss and the others showed affection towards him.

He smiled a bit, as he decided on a name while holding the boy within his arms.

"Erebus." He said.

"Erebus? Like… darkness?" asked Belphegor.

"Indeed, he exudes a strong amount of dark energy, so it is fitting, Erebus it is," said Chaos, petting the little boy.

"Ere… bus…" said Erebus, learning a new word.

After naming the Dungeon Core, everyone chatted for some time, while also playing around with Erebus.

After some time, Chaos decided to leave the dungeon, but Erebus didn't want to leave him, sticking to him.

"Wouldn't it be dangerous if it leaves the dungeon?" wondered Chaos.

"That's the case, my lord. But it seems to not want to let you go," said Belphegor.

"Sorry, Erebus, but you must remain in your dungeon," said Chaos.

"Papa… I…. Want… to go…" it said.

"I am sorry but that's how it is, I will come soon to bring you food," said Chaos, as he walked away with everyone.

"Papa…"

Suddenly, Erebus began to walk away from its own dungeon, but a sudden force stopped him, something…

The little boy glanced at Chaos and everyone else walks away as his eyes became teary…

However, he gritted his teeth as he suddenly began to take out the Dungeon Core from its materialized body.

The Dungeon Core emerged out of the body… didn't dissipate…

The Dungeon Core glanced at its own body, as the body glanced at its own dungeon core.

The two glanced at each other, it was as if the dungeon itself had split in two.

And suddenly, the dungeon core broke in half. One of them flew towards Erebus, while the other slowly began to regenerate the part is lost.

"Thanks…" said Erebus, petting the Dungeon Core.

The body began to move away from the Dungeon Core, as the Dungeon Core flew back to the dungeon…

Erebus began to walk outside of the dungeon, chasing his papa…

Something strange had happened, something that had never happened in the entirety of the galaxy…

What had just happened?

Chaos suddenly felt a strange sensation, it was like a little "crack" sound.

When he glanced behind him, he found Erebus flying towards him hurriedly.

"Papa!"

It jumped over him once more…

"Eh? Did it exit the dungeon? How?!" asked Belphegor.

"It… never left it. It divided itself," said Chaos, realizing everything.
