Prologue: The Depths of the Netherland
"People are afraid of the dark, they are afraid of the unknown, they are afraid of death. As a ruler of darkness, the lord of the temple of ten thousand demons, the demon king must make everyone know how to fear him and respect him, and he is tempted by violent coercion and sweet words. Finding the perfect balance between confusion is like when you force the human in front of you to nibble on a piece of bread and then tell him with a smile that he has half a cockroach inside.
The 333rd Demon King Cypolis"
The faint light of the flickering candle flame illuminates the dimly lit study in front of him, and with the help of this faint light, a young man can be seen curled up in a chair in front of his desk, flipping through a heavy book by candlelight.
He looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old, and his handsome face was pale and emaciated from the long absence of sunlight, and his dark mage robes were dragged to the floor. From the outside, he seems to be no different from ordinary people, but the sharp horns that faintly emerge from the sides of his forehead and those bright red eyes represent his true identity.
It was a demon.
"Hoo ..............."
After a few moments, Jenn closed the book in front of him, took off his glasses, and rubbed his sour eyes. Unlike writing a magic book, the level of the demon's historical record is really hard to look at, and the whole is a dry journal, almost like something that the bear child made up when he was a child to cope with his holiday homework.
In a certain way, the online novels Jenn read in the past were 10,000 times more interesting than this.
"Maybe when I become a demon king, the first thing I have to do is find a reliable clerk."
As he spoke to himself, Jenn stood up and stretched.
The small study looks clean and a little dilapidated, but it's no wonder what a good environment you can expect in an underground cave of less than 20 square meters? There is nothing but dark, damp caves, monsters that haunt the darkness, and death.
For Jenn, though, it's his only home.
"Then again, time flies so fast..............."
While sighing, Jenn couldn't help but recall the scene when he first came to this world.
He used to be quite famous as a hacker in the online world on Earth, and no matter how powerful the firewall was, as long as there was no completely physical isolation network, it could not stop Jenn's black hand.
But even Jenn didn't expect that he would have a horse stumble one day.
It's just that in order to save trouble, I wrote a script program for an online game that I often play, and I was actually officially banned. Unwilling, Jenn naturally hacked into the official server and tried to clear his name. As a result, while Jenn was happily making changes in the server, he didn't pay attention to the thunderstorm warning on his side......... Outcome......... Well, the facts tell us that there is a certain reason for prohibiting the use of household appliances during thunderstorms.
So not only did Jenn's computer be completely reimbursed, but even he himself did not escape. By the time Jenn regained consciousness, he had become a demon who had just crawled out of an eggshell -- and one of the heirs of the Demon King.
After staying in that ghost place where demons dance for more than ten years, after Jenn finally got familiar with the life of the demon world, he was summoned by his cheap father, and then in the name of the demon king's succession ceremony, he threw himself into this living ghost place where birds don't lay eggs.
But it's no wonder, who called himself the only one who has the least ability among his five siblings? The eldest brother Klein is the most powerful candidate for the Demon King, and the second sister Lilicia's daimyo is enough to scare children from crying in the Demon Realm. Even if it's his two younger sisters, it's a terrifying existence in the demon world.
Only Jenn, the junior...... Ahem, third brother...... Ahem...... The third brother has a rare reputation in the demon world, except for reading books in the library all day, I haven't seen him do anything serious. Not only is his own strength as weak as the demon patrols, but compared to those brothers and sisters who have heavy troops, Jenn's power is also pitiful.
Plus he's only two people.
It's no wonder that he was thrown into this kind of ghost place, otherwise, I'm afraid that before Jenn cleaned up his dungeon, he would have become nourishment in the dark depths under the earth, and another enduring laughing stock among the demons.
The so-called Demon King Inheritance Ceremony is actually very simple. To put it bluntly, it is to let the five children who are the heirs of the demon king each choose a region, and then build their own "dark castle" there to expand their power, and in the end, whoever can stand out from the five siblings will be the next demon king.
Simple and direct, there is no red tape in the human world, and there is no need for elections, co-optation and black-box operations, and there is no need to go on TV to explain their political opinions, the biggest fist is the boss, the demon world can be said to have waved this sentence to the extreme, and even rose to the level of truth.
"But............ I'm finally liberated. ”
Looking at the void in front of him, Jenn pushed down his glasses, and a fine light flashed in his bright red eyes. Because at this moment, in front of him, lines of numbers are emerging.

"Finally got through............
Looking at the floating panel in front of him, Jenn sighed with emotion.
That's right, after the crossing, Jenn inexplicably obtained this system. In fact, this system Jenn is not unfamiliar, because this is the setting in the online game he played before, but for some reason, this thing merged into his soul and crossed with him.
But unfortunately, although there is such a system, it was useless for Jenn before. Because he was helpless, before the entire dungeon unfolded, his system was completely sealed. Therefore, no matter how much knowledge he learns, he cannot transform it into his own power. Even if the spell of magic is accurate to the limit, there is still no way to cast a powerful spell.
Not only that, but while his siblings were advancing forward day by day, and the whole person was constantly escalating as if it was stuffed with golden fingers, Jenn could only hold his unexpandable first-level dungeon system forever to play time in the library. This is also the reason why Jenn's strength is always so weak that even the demons can't stand it.
It's very simple, a character who has been LV1 since birth, and has never increased whether it is hp or mp, is to give you a hundred legendary spells, and if you can't use it, isn't it a blind toss?
But now, after all the hard work and being thrown into this place where birds don't, Jenn has finally started to open his dungeon and gain the power he deserves.
I have to admit that this newly opened dungeon is very weak. Aside from Jenn, the unworthy master of the dungeon, there were only the lieutenants who had been following him, and the five goblins that had been summoned after arriving here. With such a dungeon, I'm afraid that a random adventure team can easily wipe it out.
Luckily, this is a barren area of Sanshi, and Jenn's dungeon is still a few hundred meters underground. There won't be a well-fed group of adventurers coming over for three trips a day. But for Jenn, it's not without its dangers.
"Boom!!"
At this moment, suddenly there was a dull sound in the distance, and then the earth began to tremble, and countless dust fell from the ceiling. Almost at the same time, there was a knock at the door.
"Sorry to bother you, master."
At this moment, I saw the door of the study slowly open, and then, a petite, slender figure walked into the room like a ghost. It was a girl of about fourteen or fifteen years of age, with soft blonde hair, and delicate and small features, always with an elegant smile as soft as a breeze. She was dressed in a pitch-black, gorgeous dress, and looked like a young lady of some aristocracy. But those equally bright red eyes, triangular ears, and pale skin showed that her identity was not ordinary.
"What's wrong again?"
Looking at his adjutant, Jenn reluctantly closed the book in his hand and asked.
"That's right, the southern passage was dug up by those goblins again, and this time the damage to the dungeon is about one-third, how should I solve it?"
“………………………”
It seems that a qualified architect is indeed the most important component of a dungeon.
