Reaching the edge, it looked down upon the colossal Wyrm that stretched on further than its sight could see. The Core felt afraid of this creature which lay far below its Dungeon. It wanted to expand downwards towards where the Grobs lived, but fear that the Wyrm would sense its presence kept it from doing so.

  So, instead of risking awakening the Wyrm, it decided to throw boulders over the ledge and onto the Grobs below. Hopefully, that would make them angry enough that they storm up, find the tunnel leading to it, and become fodder to help its monsters evolve.

  It started carving blocks out of the wall near the hole and threw them over the edge as it cut them out. After throwing about twelve over the edge, it looked down to find that the Grobs had all hidden in their dwellings. They waited a while before slowly leaving their dwellings, but instead of charging up they seemed to ignore the rocks which had rained from the sky.

  The Core didn't understand why the Grobs didn't get angry because it had succeeded in killing several with the boulders. It began thinking they didn't really care if a few of their number died, after all, they'll just be more later, so why bother figuring out what threw the boulders?

  Slightly crestfallen at the failure it decided to move onto the next thing it had been meaning to try, creating Dungeon-Kin.

  Moving back into what's now the Mana Spring room, since the Titan cores' hidden away behind the wall next to its own Core room. It chose to use Tiny Lesser Mana Leechlings as its first Dungeon-Kin, mostly because they're the best monsters it has, other than the Vitriolic Leeching Abomination and Storm Hide Bear, but it didn't feel the Bear had high evolution potential, so it didn't use it. As for the Vitriolic Leeching Abominations? They were already 'humanoid,' so it didn't see any reason to make them Dungeon-Kin, and started creating its first Dungeon-Kin.

  It scrutinized closely as a tiny twelve-centimeter black figure materialized. It didn't have any eyes or mouth, and it didn't have fingers on its two hands; instead, it had mouth like suckers with six large blades within, all angled towards each other in a circular pattern, and when the suckers grip something all six blades can snap shut, locking together and slicing through anything in their path. It can drain blood from the suckers on its hands and Mana from any part of its body. It didn't have any other features on its body, making it simply a black humanoid figure. It looked so bare that one wouldn't even think it was alive, and would only realize it was indeed alive if it attacked. As the monster finished materializing, black boxes assaulted the Cores' mind.

  The Core felt overwhelmed with all the black boxes it received at once and speedily began looking over them. Overall it was greatly pleased with the sudden gains and evolutions, which it already decided to make them all Mana Homogenized Leechlings. However, the Achievements and Titles brought it a tiny bit of dread at using the Floor Creation, knowing there was a chance for it to be bombarded with Floor Theme information, but it knew there was no way around it and opening it now would lessen the overload for the future.

  It was quite surprised at acquiring Themes which benefited monsters so different than all the other Themes it'd unlocked so far. It was also surprised to see no new Leech Themes had been unlocked, considering it had just gotten the Leech-Kindred Unique Title, but it was okay with that because the one it had already benefited Leeches Greatly. The Core wasn't overly interested in these Themes and only considered the Grove of Forgotten Beasts because of it's ridiculous automatically created monsters maximum rating.

  Bringing its attention back onto the Leech-Kin, it decided to appraise it, curious to learn more about this new species it had created.

  Reading the information about the Leech-Kin left it with enjoyment at its creation. However, as it was enjoying this, the feeling of its Mana being completely replenished came into its mind, shocking it, but it recalled the end of the Mana Homogenized Leechling's description and realized its Mana regeneration rate must've gone up significantly.

  All these new things left the Core strangely exhausted as it told the Leech-Kin to guard the Lyn Shade Swamp against any invaders and drifted off to sleep for the second time in its short life.
