The Dragon Lord System
DLS - 172

Inside the dungeon house now named "Labyrinth of Valhalla," by calliga.

Calliga pondered attentively towards the name of the dungeon he had just given.

This new name for his dungeon is taken from Norse mythology that he has always admired. Before he turned into a dragon, Calliga was a human who was very interested in the mythological stories.

In the previous devotional, Calliga chose the name "Valhalla" meaningfully. Valhalla, in ancient mythology, was a paradise of valiant warriors who perished in battle. And that was the philosophy he wanted to instill in his dungeon.

The Valhalla Labyrinth is not just a name. It is a call to all its inhabitants, the warriors who serve it.

The NPCs created by Calliga are loyal guards who carry out their duties diligently, which of course protects their master, calliga.

Proud and fond of Norse mythology, Calliga felt that the name "Valhalla" was the perfect symbol for his residence.

Calliga is now on its 15th floor.

In the magnificent throne room, Calliga, the ruler of the Dungeon whom he named 'Maze of Valhalla', he sat on his throne with a solemn feigned gaze.

Before him stood dozens of his subordinate NPCs, who came from various floors that were part of his dungeon.

Some of them were Floor Guardians, floor guards who represented and guarded their respective parts within this labyrinth.

An unspoken tension hung in the air, and Calliga felt his heart thump.

Even though he was the creator and ruler, encounters like this always made him feel awkward. The gazes of the dozens of eyes focused on him felt so intimidating.

"Truly.. awkwardly, once in a while," muttered Calliga in his heart, but he tried to hide his nervousness.he tried to show an impression of seriousness in this encounter, even though in fact his heart was beating fast.

However, it was fortunate that Calliga's face was a resolute dragonoid face, with hard scales that complemented its shape.

The look on his natural dragonoid face always looked creepy and full of authority. Despite the nervousness in her heart, Calliga always looked very serious on various occasions.

This made many of the NPCs, Guardians, and Area Guardians gathered before him feel like they were being inspected in detail by the sharp gaze, their Sovereign.

On Calliga's right hand side stood his first son, Sebas, who acted as the Creator's right hand.

To his left stood their daughter, Karina. Sebas and Karina also faced, accompanying the father in the ceremony.

They watched with pride and devotion to the Creator who was also their father.

In the Calliga dungeon called Valhalla, the Guardian or Floor Guardians of the dungeon were divided into two types: Area Guardian and Floor Guardian.

Standing in front of Calliga was the Floor Guardian. They were in charge of one or several floors within the dungeon, and their job was to guard and manage a certain area within this dungeon.

There are many Guardian Areas that ensure that every corner of the Valhalla dungeon floor is well protected, which is certainly to protect their master creators.

However, the most important thing was the Guardian Floor, which was watching the floors within this dungeon.

But one time opened a pair of giant doors in the throne, Klak.. Clack..

As the giant door of the throne room opened, a little girl of about 12 years old came inside.

This little girl was wearing a very adorable pink dress with a short skirt and black sleeves. Her hair was pink, and her eyes were blood red.

This girl ran frantically hastily and towards the gathered guardians. Beside him, there was a large lion-like creature with the head of a bird, known as the Griffin, who followed him.

Luna walked quickly towards them, looking hurried. "Yes... I'm sorry I'm late, sir!" he said quickly as he gathered with the guardians.

Calliga who sat on the throne simply nodded in a friendly manner, indicating that Luna's delay was not a problem.

This little girl, Luna, seemed to be afraid of being scolded by her father when it came too late, it was fortunate that her father did not scold her which made her calm again.

Luna was Calliga's daughter, but in the presence of the assembled guardians like this, she chose to call her father a more formal "Master.

On the other hand, Hades who stood near Luna was the sixth brother in this family. Now, in the presence of Gameciel who became the youngest brother, Hades is no longer known as the youngest brother.

Luna of course could no longer make fun of him as a little brother anymore.

Hades continued his nosy behavior by sticking his tongue out at the late Luna, disturbing the little girl.

"Curtain! I'll pay it back one day!" luna muttered furiously, but of course, she had to hold back her emotions now. There was no way he could make trouble in front of their father.

Meanwhile, Karina, who was standing on Calliga's left side, could only sigh at her sister's actions.

He knew that if it wasn't for the sibling relationship, he would definitely be angry at the late Luna. But because she was close to her sister, Karina felt she had to keep her composure.

Prok.. Prok..

(claps.. Claps.).

Within the majestic throne room, the atmosphere became silent as Sebas clapped his hands firmly.

The clapping sound echoed, signalling that all present were focused and calm in front of Mr. Calliga, the creator and absolute ruler of the Valhalla dungeon.

Even on the ceiling of the room that was circular like a ball stadium, many golems witnessed the presence of their masters sitting on the throne.

Calliga, with his stern dragonoid face, exuded the authority and power that came from his existence alone.

...***Calliga***Dragonoid Form Illustration***...

"All right! It seems that everyone is here" said Sebas, asserting that all the guardians and subordinates have gathered.

With a serious and dignified look, Sebas took over the order in the throne room.

His voice echoed throughout the space, commanding decisively, "everything! Give your respects to the supreme leader!"

All the guardians obeyed Sebas' command. They bowed respectfully to Calliga without a word.

Then, with impressive discipline, they formed a lineup.

The floor guardians, who guarded the floors from 1 to 15, stood in the front row. Behind them, all the other guardians also lined up neatly.

However, what distinguishes is the special position given to the sons of Calliga: Gameciel, Hades, Aleister, and Luna.

They stood at the front, like exclusive guests, showing that their hierarchy was higher compared to other guardians.

This is because the four children are direct descendants of the master, Calliga, the lord of the Valhalla dungeon. The hierarchy within this dungeon was extremely strict and respected by all guardians.

Zara, who stood closest to Calliga, advanced with steady steps.

"The Guardian Floors from the first and second floors, Zara, came to face," he said in a stern voice.

In a deep gesture of reverence, he knelt down, one hand on his chest, showing his deep reverence.

After Zara finished her ceremony, another NPC guardian took a turn.

"Guardian Floor from the third floor, Augusto, comes facing."

This Guardian was different from the others, with a bird-like head and a human body. The yellow fur that adorned his body was like a natural helmet.

He wore a dark green armor that protected most of his body, and a pair of large wings loomed on his back. His main weapon was a spear.

Slowly, Augusto knelt before Calliga, displaying a deep reverence for the dungeon lord, as had been taught by the strict hierarchical arrangement in the Valhalla Labyrinth.

"The Guardian Floor from the fourth floor, Miranda, came facing," said an area guardian respectfully to Calliga.

Miranda is a humanoid creature like Medusa with a body like half a large snake and a human.

Her hair, or what is usually human hair, was replaced by long snakes like a medusa.

His eyes were sharp golden pupils, similar to snake eyes. His entire hair, which was also snake-shaped, ducked down as if he was paying deep respect to the master who sat on his magnificent throne.

With the same attitude as Zara, Miranda also knelt respectfully in front of Calliga, creating an atmosphere of impressive solenality within the throne room.
