Waking up I stretch my arms. But noticing I'm not moving I open my eyes in surprise.
Before me is a small crevice inside a cliff. Being somewhat close to the ground I can see a forest surrounding me semi circularly.
'Why the fuck am I inside a crevice?!'
Willing my body to rise I'm once again shocked to not be able to.
Observing the crevice interior I'm dumbfounded. The crevice is at most half a meter deep and 20 centimetres wide in the opening but what makes me dumbfounded is that I can see myself(?) I'm not sure how or why I know it's me but when I look at the small silvery gem not bigger than a square centimeter emitting a faint light I just know.
'Dafuq.. This is awkward I'm quite sure I'm human not a freaking gem!'
Trying to remember what happened yesterday everything feels kind of hazy. And when I try to force it I feel a horrible mental pain piercing throughout my being.
'Speaking of which what am I? I know I'm a gem but aren't they usually non-living?'
Focusing my thoughts I mentally say 'status'. Status is one of many commands in the global system bestowed upon us by the gods, it displays a digital information window about my current self and progress in different areas such as strength and intelligence.
Status window-General InformationName:???Race:Dungeon HeartTitel(s):
'OH shit that explains a bit, but why is my name "???" my name is clearly... ehh.. what was it again?'
Memorising the status window I sigh. So I'm reincarnated huh? And based on my racial information I'm even a dungeon heart. I remember dungeons a bit from my previous life, mazes full of traps, monsters and treasures.
'But I'm a freaking crevice... how is that a dungeon?'
While brooding over what to do now I feel something entering me (and not in a creepy way...).
Focusing my attention on this being I'm surprised to see a Mosquito. Yet when focusing on it its like I can zoom in seeing every detail of its body.
After only a second of identifying it a small transparent window pops up above it.
Tiger MosquitoGender:FemaleType:InsectA flying insect with the lifespan of approximately 10 days. Mainly lives off of nectar but this species females also need the nutrients from blood to produce eggs.
The saliva of this particular species not only serves as a anticoagulant but also has a minor paralizing effect.
Mosquitoes are usually crepuscular feeders as they only feed at dusk and dawn, though some species has showned otherwise.
'Dafuq how did I get all that information from just looking at it?! Though it is kind of useful, I think?'
Pondering over why I know what anticoagulant means I fail to notice the mosquito dying.
*Diiiing!*

Noticing the new window I mentally smile.
'Yepp I have decided what to do. I'm gonna conquer this world! MOHAHAAHAHAHAH'

Attempting to spawn my minions of doom I'm met with a minor problem.
The system told me that to be able to spawn a
First I didn't really understand what it ment but when I remembered my status I kind of understand.
Miasma is a type of energy or should I call it a type of valuta? Which is acquired from absorbing living organisms.
And before you ask, I got 0,5 miasma from the dead Tiger Mosquito...
But why am I not disturbed by this? Well you see the great me decided to just wait until another Mosquito enters me... (in a non sexual way..)

( 5 FREAKING HOURS LATER. )
'Mohahahahhahahahahahaha!'
While laughing like an evil... dungeon heart? I inspect my newly spawned minion.
Evil-Tiger MosquitoGender:FemaleType:Infected InsectLevel:1A flying insect spawned by an unknown dungeon. Due to a malicious intent while being created it's acquired an incredibly sadistic personality.
The insect is modified so it can live off of miasma contaminated air due to this it doesn't need blood to produce eggs anymore. The average lifespan has though been reduced to 2 days.
The minor paralysing venom in its saliva has improved to a paralysing venom capable of paralysing even medium sized animals.
System has bestowed it the title of:
If you don't include the description and abilities two things have changed. Its name and level.
Due to it being an insect it didn't even have a level before yet now it does. If my memories are correct a bunny is level 1. Its like my mosquitoes are at the danger level of a bunny. (For those who doesn't know, bunnies can bite really fucking hard)
And that's the reason for my malicious laughter. Though the sadistic personality surprised me it actually just helps me in my cause.
With my first minion of doom in my arsenal I start the hunt...

~ 24 hours later ~
In my quest to conquer the world I've taken a mayor step forward. Just look for your self.

You probably wonder 'how come he 78 organisms now when it took 5 hours to get 1'.
Well it's actually quite easy, I started breeding them.
When I acquired my first male tiger mosquito I could spawn males aswell. Apparently I need to absorb both of the genders to be able to spawn both, though that isn't so weird as the inner structure is different I guess.
With my constant supply of
I have one problem though, I'm to small. And as an evolving type dungeon I should be able to expand right?
Why yes! Yet when I tried to will myself to grow larger I was met with yet another problem.
Not enough miasma to expand dungeon. The minimum amount of space to expand in one go is one meter in cubic.
100 miasma / cubic meter.
You see I need more miasma. And though I've seen some bunnies and birds travel outside my crevice I'm to small for them to enter. And my geometrical structure doesn't support bigger organisms than insects...
So I did what any sensible dungeon would do, start a free for all death game.
As each mosquito dies I get a half miasma. Therefore I thought it was a good idea to kill off som... I mean train them a bit!
And though I forced it upon them as their creator their personality just expanded the idea.
That's why I'm currently watching my mosquitoes biting and killing each other. The male mosquitoes are a bit stronger but they don't have any needles so its quite the fight.
I always left the 'nest' untouched as I didn't want to eradicate all my minions.
A few hours passed and I was met with a surprising notification.
Due to constant battles and mayor influx of miasma your

This notification made yet another evil laugh echo through my mind... god I wish I could talk.
No but for real, why did they evolve? I mean I know the air in my dungeon is contaminated with miasma but it couldn't been enough to evolve a specie in a few hours?
Hmmm could it be they absorbed the miasma of the creatures they kill aswell? No, I still get the miasma from their corpses so why?
Putting down the topic for now I start thinking of my next step towards world domination.
And with that I decide to check my status again.
Status window-General InformationName:???Race:Dungeon HeartTitel(s):
The total amount of organisms havd decreased but my danger level has increased. And on a side note, I freaking love the sound my bringers of death make when they fly... I would probably had pissed my pants if I had seen them in my previous life.
I also noticed that when a
Well anyways, with my over 100 miasma I decide to expand my crevice.
First I do is lengthening my crevice so it touches the ground when its about 1 and a half meters tall I stop. Then I widen the crevice to about 40 centimeters. Not so big a bear or something can get inside and not to small to limit small animals from getting inside, with some sharp edges I make it look safe and nice looking.
With the remaining cubic meter of expanding left I open up the interior a bit. Close to the roof I also make a lot of pockets to hide my minions in.
Finished with the expanding I feel a kind of pride. As if seeing your child scoring a goal in a football match, that kind of pride.
And with that I wait, with my roof full of sadistic insects for the next animal to walk by...
