Dungeon of Pride, Laplace

Simon had a feeling that something went wrong the moment he pressed that option. He tried calling the dungeon menu but there was no response even after a few seconds passed. Cold sweat trickled down his body. If it was any other time, a blue window would have popped up in front of him immediately.

However, there was still no response even after he called it out a few more times. Simon was at a loss for a moment, he did know what changes occurred after he pressed the [Merge] option but he was now unable to use the dungeon menu.

It would disastrous if he was unable to use the dungeon menu. The access to the dungeon menu was what made one a dungeon master. If he can't access the dungeon menu anymore then he wouldn't be able to perform his duty as a dungeon master much less modify the floors.

Heck, he would be unable to even leave the main floor if he didn't have the dungeon menu with him.

He was starting to panic and his heartbeat was beating like a drum as all the negative thoughts started bombarding his mind.

"What if the dungeon menu was permanently gone?"

"What if i am unable to leave the main floor for eternity?"

Maybe because he was no longer a human or maybe it was because of his stats, but he hurriedly collected himself as he controlled his breathing and his wildly beating heart. The change was so fast that even Simon himself was shocked by it.

Simon calmly pondered for a long while before calling the menu once again. The menu he called out wasn't the dungeon menu but instead, the [Main Menu]. Since the dungeon menu stopped working after he pressed that [Merge] option from the [Main Menu], he wanted to see if he could reverse it.

However, when the [Main Menu] popped up in front of him, Simon was stunned once again. The menu that appeared in front of him wasn't the dungeon menu nor did it look like the [Main Menu] he was familiar with.

The menu that popped up appeared to be a merger of the two. The [Main Menu] looked quite different than before and had some of the functions that were supposed to be on the dungeon menu.

Nonetheless, the [Main Menu] was not entirely different. It still gave off a golden-black aura and a dragon coiled around the edges of the screen. The screen now displayed the dungeon name and rank, as well as all the options that should have only been on the dungeon menu, have now appeared on the [Main Menu].

There was no doubt, it was as if the dungeon menu had merged with the skill [Main Menu]. When his thoughts reached till here, it finally dawned on him what that [Merge] option did.

"Ah, so that's how it is. The [Merge] function in the setting combined the two menus into one. Ahahaha and here I was panicking about the disappearance of the dungeon menu" Simon sighed in relief after he realised that the dungeon menu wasn't gone but had actually merged with his [Main Menu].

Although his race and stats calmed his mind, he was still panicking deep inside. But it seemed that there was no need to in the first place, the dungeon menu had not gone anywhere.

His respite only lasted for a few seconds before he was shocked by another discovery. "Eh? Ehhh??? What going on… what happened to [Gacha], [Summon] and the [Hero's Altar] function".

Simon was stunned to find that the two options were gone and instead, there was these two unknown options [Ga?????] and [???????] on the [Main Menu]. Simon who had created the [Main Menu] himself, never had seen these two options before. And most of all, these two options appeared in question mark all over, making it hard to know what the option actually did.

After the two menus got merged, it was as if they were bugged. He was now regretting his decision for using the [Merge] option.

However, there was still a silver lining and he hurriedly opened the [Settings]. But his hopes were quickly shattered as he couldn't find the option he was looking for. Simon thought that since there was an option for merging the two menus then there should also be an option to split them.

There was no other option other than the [Merge] which was now inaccessible inside the settings function. Now he had no choice but to stick with this new menu that appeared after the merger of the previous two. Simon couldn't help but curse himself for pressing the option without knowing what it did.

These three options were the pillar through which he was going to build himself and the dungeon. But now they were gone and instead some unknown option that clearly looked quite shady appeared.

Staring at the [Main Menu] for long while, Simon sighed once again but this time it wasn't a sigh of relief but a sigh of lament.

"Hahhh, did the system get bugged after the merge?. [Main Menu] was something that I designed in my previous world and it was something that became my skill after I reincarnated into this world. Whereas the dungeon menu was something that came after I created the dungeon"

Simon pondered for a while. Why was it only these options that disappeared? And suddenly it struck him. Since the dungeon menu and the skill [Main Menu] became one, didn't that mean that his skill which had transmigrated along with him and which wasn't originally a part of this world, got integrated with it?

"I see. If something that wasn't a part of this world before became a part of it after the merger, then is that why it is unable to display [Gacha] and [Hero's Altar] which wasn't supposed to be a part of the dungeon menu? but what about the [summon] option wasn't it part of this world?".

There were a lot of questions, and the more he thought, the more puzzled he got but at the same time, he felt as if the fog of mystery that clouded the world was getting cleared little by little.
