Prologue: New Arc

Mc's POV

"Is everyone ready?"

I asked the girls who came downstairs as soon as I finished my training.

"I'm always ready kid, are we going now?" (Justice)

"Yep, but first I need to divide us in groups to protect the others and to increase our efficiency in grinding exp"

I said before taking out a list from my pockets as they all started to intently listen to me.

The grouping them was quite simple, I paired them up based on their strength, focusing on protecting those who are on the weaker side to those who are the strongest since they could protect them if anything happens. Asia is a special case since her skills are meant for combat but support and control.

The resulting pairs are:

[Asia, Ophis and Lily]

[Tobiichi and Miku]

[Justice and Ingvild]

[Lucifer and Azazel]

[Cerberus and Kuroka]

[Yoshinon and the Yamai sisters]

[Kotori and Natsumi]

[Flandre, Kurumi, and Tohka]

[Mukuro and Valerie]

[Beelzebub and Nia]

[Judgement and Iris]

[Yami and Tiamat]

[Elmenhilde and Modeus]

[And finally me and Yuu]

(A/N: That's a lot of characters :0 +21 others that Lucias haven't met yet)

"That's about it"

I said before throwing the list inside my inventory before taking out Murasame, who now have the [growth] feature, from my inventory as I raised my hand up in the air to activate my skill.

"[Instant Dungeon Create]"

My mana spread around the entire area but outside of my expectations, the system interfered causing me to panic as several gates appeared in the room before pulling the girls separately in each gate.

"Everyone!"

I screamed as I reached out my hand but was unable to move when a vine wrapped around my and Yuu's body as we were both pulled towards the gate behind us.

[Due to the player's slow progress in creating a faction, the 'creator' has decided to interfere]

[New Quest!]

[Quest: Make at least 50 residents of the dimensional dungeon submit to you.

Reward: The gate back to your past dimension.

Limit: 5 years (inside the dimension)

Failure: Trapped for eternity inside the void

All members of the faction must fulfill the task of gathering 50 members before the limit ends]

[Good Luck to the new Faction]
