Episode 86: The Naughty Nun Reika (1)

Let’s get started then.

“Lumica, please take care of the house.”

“Are you leaving already? You’ve just recovered. Everyone else is…”

“It’s necessary for our safety. Right now, I can only trust you, Lumica. Please watch over the house.”

I said this while holding Lumica’s shoulder.

“Ah!”

Lumica, her face turning bright red, bowed her head.

“Okay, I understand.”

“Hehe, thanks.”

“I’m not doing it because I want to… Go and come back.”

Good.

“Alright, Imsoong, Gyuil! Get your tools ready! Let’s go to work!”

“Kkeurk!”

“Gyusat!”

Imsoong and Gyuil energetically responded and began directing their subordinates quickly. The imps and kobolds swiftly got armed and lined up in front of me.

“Good.”

They were all holding spears.

Of course, these guys’ training level was significantly lower compared to the goblins. But that was okay. With this amount of force, it shouldn’t be a problem.

I had already gained several real battle experiences. I had a rough idea of how to fight better. With my command, there should be no problem.

“We’re going to recover the spoils and bodies. Got it?”

“Kkeurk!”

“Gyusat!”

Five human corpses in total.

This meant there were spoils from five people. Not only weapons but also the clothes they wore and even the backpacks they brought. All of these were now mine.

Each one was an overtechnology item. Starting from clothes to various tools, they would be very useful. Surely, the dungeon’s tech level will increase.

“Move out!”

With that, we set out to collect the bodies and spoils.

“Wow!”

The bodies were well hidden.

There were no bugs around them, all thanks to Sharan’s plant magic. Didn’t she say the flowers here repelled bugs?

“Good. We’ve checked here. Let’s go collect the farthest ones first.”

“Kkeurk!”

Under my command, the imps and kobolds marched in an orderly fashion. It felt like a picnic, though we were actually going to search for human corpses.

How my senses and common sense had changed.

I was reincarnated as a demon but used to be a human. A regular Korean living on Earth. And now, here I was, committing indiscriminate serial killings without any remorse.

Race really was something.

“…”

We found the farthest body and started the recovery operation.

“Gyuil, get ready to move the body. Imsoong, pick up anything unusual around the area.”

“Gyusat gyusat.”

The belongings dropped by the adventurers need to be thoroughly collected. If such belongings were left behind, they became evidence of murder. I didn’t want other adventurers to find them and start imagining ominous things.

We needed to erase traces of the homicide.

If no belongings were left behind, it was just a simple disappearance. I might not have knowledge about crimes, but I knew the difference between a disappearance with and without belongings left behind.

I searched the area with the imps, and upon finding a backpack dropped by an adventurer, I opened it.

“Wow!”

As soon as I opened it, I couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement!

“Good heavens! What is all this!”

Inside the small pot, there were various items: strings, belts, pouches, barrels, water bottles, books? Even a dagger, an hourglass, and a compass? The backpack was packed with various tools, just like military gear.

There was even food and currency. Was this the currency of these humans? It felt like foreign coins. Fascinating. I should keep these for now.

“Damn men’s underwear.”

But there were underwear and socks too.

The socks could be washed and used, but the underwear was a bit too much. I should just store them in the warehouse.

“Absolutely incredible.”

Of course, these weren’t the only items I acquired. The clothes and the items in the pockets of the corpses, and even the iron weapons. It was all perfect. I had become rich in an instant just by killing a few humans.

“Gyusam!”

“Glug!”

Soon, Gyuil and Imsoong reported the completion of their mission.

“Let’s take all the bodies and items and head back!”

Thus, we returned the way we came, collecting all the corpses and spoils, and returned home before sunset.

“Master!”

Upon returning, Sharan greeted me.

“Ah, yes. Sharan. Did you sleep well?”

“Sharan slept well. Is Master okay?”

“I’m fine. How about Sharan’s body?”

“It hurts less than yesterday.”

“That’s good.”

It seemed she had recovered a bit from sleeping. If I supplied her with my semen today, she’d definitely get better by tomorrow.

“Imsoong, Gyuil, organize the stuff we brought.”

I immediately spread out a human cloak I took out from the backpack. Simultaneously, Imsoong and Gyuil began stripping the corpses and laying out the collected items on the cloak as if displaying them in a parade.

“Wow, demon king. You’ve collected a lot? Human stuff.”

“Yes. They’ll all be useful. Good, right?”

“Looks good. Typical human stuff.”

But really, there were so many items.

“Are these guys moving company workers?”

They had a lot of tools.

From my modern perspective, it seemed like a collection of miscellaneous items from a hardware store clearance sale, but from my perspective, living naturally in a cave, it was just a treasure trove, a treasure trove.

Hammers, hand axes, and so much more.

Why were these guys carrying all their household goods with them? Could it be that they were homeless? Ah, that might be the case. They might be carrying all their belongings because they didn’t have a home.

“Master, what about the corpses?”

“Wait. I’ll check.”

The corpses of the adventurers, who met a miserable end, were lying side by side.

There was only one thing to do.

“Magic Extraction.”

I already knew that extraction worked on humans. Without hesitation, I manipulated magic and reached into the chest of a corpse.

-Pop!

The moment I pulled out the heart with my surreal power, the adventurer’s body dissolved into blackness, and the heart in my hand transformed into a magic stone.

“Magic stone.”

I planned to collect these human magic stones.

They were not just any stones but magic stones extracted from human corpses. They might serve as black magical materials… I wanted to extract from all the corpses, but I had a lot to do with magic today. I’d store the remaining bodies for now.

After that, I entered the goblin interior room.

“Buril.”

“Keruk-keruk.”

Buril was busy taking care of the goblins who had fallen into a comatose state, giving them water and such.

Of course, he was feeling very down.

How could he not be when all his subordinates ended up like this? Six of them were in this state. It seemed like the three without major injuries would wake up soon, but the other three who were stabbed were a real concern.

“Buril, hang in there. I’ll definitely save these guys.”

“Kerurung.”

When I patted his head, Buril purred contentedly.

“Rest for today. I won’t ask you to do anything. Come and eat later.”

“Keruk.”

“You did really well fighting against the humans.”

“Kerung!”

He was truly my right hand.

After holding each of the comatose goblins’ hands, I stepped outside the office.

“Master.”

“Ah, Sharan. Rest. I’m going to interrogate that nun. Eat with the kids when it’s mealtime.”

“Sharan wants to work too.”

“No, you’re injured today. Let’s rest.”

“Sha…”

I carried Sharan in a princess hold to the bedroom. Lumica was also resting there, apparently tired.

“Master. That female must be taught a lesson. Our goblins got hurt.”

“Right. It’s unforgivable that they got so hurt.”

Lumica sympathized with Sharan’s words.

“Should we just eat her up?”

Lumica went beyond sympathizing to actually mimicking eating. That was a bit eerie. After all, she was a Rusalka who sucked human blood. But I didn’t feel any discomfort about that.

“Hehe, that’s a good idea. But not now. I have a lot of questions for the nun, especially about the human world.”

“That’s true.”

We couldn’t just eat her.

“But Master. That female is strong.”

“She is strong.”

Indeed, she was very powerful.

She was a woman who alone withstood my and Sharan’s attack, as well as the coordinated assault of a Goblin squad.

Dangerous.

“If she’s strong, it would be good to subjugate her and make her your subordinate.”

“Make her a subordinate? After she did this to our goblins?”

“That’s why, make her serve you, Master. Since she hurt the goblins, she should work that much.”

“Hmm.”

Making her serve as punishment for injuring the goblins.

That was a good idea.

“But subjugation…”

That was an ideal situation. Subduing a strong nun and making her my subordinate? Then, there would be nothing to fear.

But the problem was.

“Will that nun really submit?”

A nun who believed in God.

And she was in a state of immense hostility towards me. Even ready to die, she was hurling insults at me. It seemed very difficult to subdue such a woman and make her my subordinate.

“Master, you subdued that big-breasted female. You can do anything.”

“Hehe, that’s true.”

“There’s nothing Master can’t do.”

ㅡCherak.

As Sharan said this, she raised her fist and laughed. Such warm encouragement.

“Thank you.”

Indeed.

“Devil Domination Technique.”

I was not sure if it would work on humans.

But it was worth a try. No, I should subdue the nun. As it stood, even if I interrogated her, she was likely to keep silent or leak false information.

If I subjugated her and made her my subordinate, she’d fully cooperate with me.

I was not exactly a professional torturer. I was a bit perplexed about how to extract information from humans. What if I accidentally killed the nun while trying to torture her? That would be a complete failure.

“Alright.”

First, the interrogation.

“Then, since it’s late, everyone, take care of your meals and rest. I’ll interrogate the nun and then sleep.”

“Yes, Master.”

“Demon king, don’t overdo it.”

“I won’t.”

Saying that, I left the bedroom.

“Torture.”

I entered the room where the nun was imprisoned.

“… You’re back again?”
