Zen looked deeply into the eye of Krista Dragoon and knew she was serious about her words.

Zen gave a soft sigh before pecking her in the cheek slightly and said, "Even if you don't tell me to keep your sister safe, I would have done it either way. Also, I won't just protect Leila alone but you're included as well."

Zen was solemn and determined when he spoke those words, shocking Krista Dragoon for a moment.

However, she simply gave a nod later as she said, "Thank you, we'll be in your care then."

Zen chuckled and tried to lean in for another kiss, this time in the lips but Krista Dragoon swiftly avoided his kiss and slipped out.

Getting up, Krista Dragoon smirked and said, "You already pecked me in the cheeks so you can give up trying to kiss me a second time." 

Afterward, she went away to meet up with Leila Dragoon and the rest of the worker's slimes to inform them that they were done with their conversation.

Zen looked at Krista Dragoon running away with a small smile on his face as he wondered if he always gets manipulated or controlled by the women around him instead of the opposite.

'No, I'm just a guy who loves to spoil my women.' 

Zen shook off his stupid thinking and tried to connect with Cecilia once again to communicate with her.

Alas, it was futile as he was completely disconnected from Cecilia ever since arriving here. It was the first time that this has ever happened to him so Zen was sure of one thing.

The Demon Lord does not belong in this tiny world but someone from above. One who is far stronger than the dogs he had met and could possibly be at a similar level or even above Cecilia in terms of cultivation.

Whenever Zen concluded this dreadful outcome, he became frightful for once when his trump card, Cecilia, was useless against his enemies.

"Zen, what are you thinking of? Still mauling over the loss and now contemplating your arrogance and confidence?" Krista Dragoon teased softly as her arm was being held by Leila Dragoon.

The rest of the worker slimes were happily bouncing forward behind them as they were excited to leave this floor.

They were ordered to stay here and not allowed to proceed to the next floor but with them being bound in a contract to Zen, that order was nullified already.

Meanwhile, Zen smiles briefly as he keeps a secret about being unable to communicate with someone that is practically living inside his body.

"Nothing much, I was just thinking when can I ever kiss and grope your breast. They are so big and bouncy that I can't wait to get my hands on them." Zen smiled wickedly as he showed a lewd expression at the princesses.

Krista Dragoon was disgusted but inwardly, she was solemn and depressed slightly. 'Seems like we still haven't earned your trust yet to open up to us.'

She wasn't an idiot to believe Zen lewd words to be the truth and instead, she knew he was hiding a deep secret from them. One that meant more than his life but she couldn't nitpick on what it is.

Meanwhile, Leila Dragoon simply stayed silent as she had her mystic eye to tell that Zen was only telling half the truth with some lies mixed in it.

Although she can't confirm it 100 percent, with her experience in reading people, she can pretty much guess around 70-90 percent of the time.

Zen didn't want to linger on this topic any further as he turned around. "It's time to go to the 2nd floor and see what we have to deal with. Hopefully, I can get some more pets, or else it'll be a shame."

Afterward, Zen slowly walked up the stairs followed by Krista Dragoon and Leila Dragoon. While the worker slimes happily ascend the stairs without feeling any restriction or barrier blocking them from walking up.

Some time passed as Zen finally finished climbing all the stairs while cursing inwardly. 'Damn it, I hate walking up the stairs. Always remind me of stupid school with a ton of stairs as we rushed to class.'

Stairs always brought Zen bad memories with the most recent with Cecilia's torture but now, this labyrinth could be counted in it as well.

He couldn't imagine walking up the stairs whenever he conquers the floor as it'll be too ridiculous and inefficient.

"Why can't the stupid creator create a teleporting platform or array for us challengers. We are here playing the Demon Lord petty game yet get treated so unfairly." Zen complained outwardly, dumbfounding the two princesses.

They all held one thing in their mind. 'Did Zen go crazy as of this moment now?'

Zen can feel the gaze of the two princesses but decides to ignore them as he starts commanding the worker slimes.

"As usual, we will have one group for scouting and one group for defending us while the other group will be for attacking. Now go and scatter to do your work."

The worker slimes quickly decide their group as they proceed with their action while Zen continues to investigate the 2nd floor. 

Although the wall texture and ground look the same, Zen can feel a different profound aura looming around this 2nd floor.

Trying to figure it out in her mind, Krista Dragoon suddenly intervenes and said, "The purity and concentration of mana on this floor are significantly higher than the 1st floor."

Zen raised his eyebrow slightly in surprise as he couldn't sense this minimal change of mana on this floor. 'How come I can't feel a sudden increase of mana in my core?'

He turned to look at Krista Dragoon and asked again to confirm that she didn't make a mistake. Krista Dragoon became slightly irritated by the amount of trust in her but still, she closed her eyes and started absorbing the mana on this floor.

Zen could feel her mana being increased more rapidly than on the 1st floor and it was true that the purity and concentration of mana were inherently different here.
