Episode 114: Eating Pixies And Levelling Up (7)

Astonishing Event

ㅡHwaahahak.

Just when she thought an erotic pattern was being carved into the Dryad’s lower abdomen, a physical change occurred. Horns sprouted from its head, much like those of a demon.

“What on earth is this?”

She couldn’t understand what was happening.

The ability to carve erotic patterns was rare but not non-existent. Succubi and incubi, for example. Some species living in the demon world can convert sexual pleasure into magical power, and the ability to enchant others by carving erotic patterns is also possible.

It was extremely encouraging that Kyuse had manifested such abilities. Remarkably impressive. They would be very useful against the human females of the Middle World.

In fact, Kyuse had already captured a human nun. It wouldn’t be long before she was under his command.

However, unless Kyuse infiltrated the core of the Middle World’s power holders and corrupted powerful women into slaves, this ability wouldn’t be as effective as it could be.

Above all, it was unlikely that Kyuse, who had just acquired a small dungeon, would infiltrate the core of human society. Besides, there were clear limitations to the erotic pattern.

But then.

“Demonization.”

Transforming monsters of the Middle World.

Evolving them like demons.

It was unheard of.

Evolving a monster into a demon? Duchess Keraxis, who had lived in the demon world for a long time, dominating the realm and acquiring vast knowledge, had never heard of transforming other species of the Middle World into demons. It was unprecedented.

ㅡThump.

Realizing this, her heart raced.

“…No.”

She immediately calmed her mind.

Nothing was certain yet. One shouldn’t be disturbed by uncertainties. The information contained in the crystal ball was limited. It couldn’t capture everything from the scene.

The appearance of horns was surprising. Moreover, other demonic traits also emerged in the Dryad’s body.

Could the Dryad really have become a demon? She couldn’t be certain, so she couldn’t judge. If it were just a minor physical transformation, such abilities also existed in the demon world. The Duchess reminded herself of this fact.

“However.”

If Kyuse’s ability really was…

The ability to turn someone into a demon?

“…”

ㅡThump.

ㅡThump.

ㅡThump.

Her heart raced uncontrollably.

If Kyuse’s ability was real…

“It might be possible.”

This situation might be resolvable.

The angels of the High Heavens, united under a fanatical ideology, were extending their claws to engulf the Middle World. They would not tolerate any internal division to achieve their absolute goal.

But the demon world was different. Since the Great Demon King’s death, it had never been united. If this continued, they would fall behind. In fact, they were already lagging.

Duchess Keraxis had devised many strategies and was executing them to resolve the situation, but her power alone couldn’t compare to the momentum and strength of the High Heavens.

“But if Kyuse’s ability is real…”

It might be possible.

It was an optimistic prediction, but the Duchess’s intuition was strongly drawn to Kyuse at that moment. Suddenly, Keraxis remembered the legend of the Great Demon King… Was it a coincidence? The Advent ceremony was conducted amidst such chaos. And Kyuse, who had awakened an ability unknown even to her.

ㅡSwoosh.

The Duchess, who had been lying in the bathtub, stood up.

The matter concerning Kyuse…

She set its importance to the highest level.

Kyuse was a link to the Middle World—a most special link. Therefore, an immediate reassignment of tasks was necessary.

She felt a surge of excitement. Though her body rarely wavered, she began to feel agitated. That’s how intriguing this was.

“…”

But then.

“… There’s still more.”

The recording wasn’t over yet.

It wasn’t too late to make a plan after checking everything.

ㅡZiiing.

Duchess Keraxis opened the gate leading to her bedroom.

“From now on, I must receive daily reports.”

It was only natural to pay close attention to important matters.

“…Ah.”

She should also receive all the unedited footage.

“From this moment, we start Imsoong’s promotion ceremony! Everyone, cheer and clap!”

At my shout,

“Kerrrerk!”

“Kruk!”

“Gyusatsat!”

“Kyaahahak!”

ㅡClap Clap Clap!

Everyone screamed and clapped – goblins, imps, kobolds, and the pixies who had recently joined.

After returning yesterday, I organized everything and started the promotion ceremony early in the morning. Contrary to my worries, the pixies were a bit unruly but followed my commands very well.

Very satisfying.

Anyway,

“Krruk! Kkomapta! Everyone! Happy!”

Imsoong, who had become a bit more dignified, scratched his head and was pleased. Seeing him like that, I, too, smiled and then said,

“Then, Imsoong! Come to the front of the stage!”

“Kruk!”

I called him to stand before me.

ㅡThud thud thud.

His walk was now somewhat more disciplined. The imps cheered again upon seeing this.

“Krrurrurk!”

“Kruprup!”

Really, it was as if their breath was taken away.

“Imsoong! You’ve worked hard! I acknowledge your efforts! Therefore, from today, you are promoted from Imp Squad Leader to Imp Platoon Leader!”

“Krrurrurk!”

“From Platoon Leader, you can lead a unit outside the dungeon and conduct independent outdoor operations!”

“Kruk! Got it! I’ll do my best!”

“Good!”

Then, I created a sphere of magical power at the tip of my fingers.

ㅡPoke.

And infused it into Imsoong’s forehead.

“Krrurrurk…!”

“From now on, you are the Platoon Leader! Everyone, applause!”

With that, the simple promotion ceremony was over.

ㅡClap Clap Clap Clap!

ㅡClap Clap Clap Clap!

ㅡClap Clap Clap Clap!

With the celebrations bursting forth, Imsoong, shedding tears, returned to his place. Indeed, the position makes the man. Seeing him so grown-up made me really happy.

“Then, commanders, return to the interior squad as ordered! Execute!”

“Kerk!”

“Kruk!”

“Sharan, Lumica, Serinu, and also Reika, come to me!”

Following my orders, my subordinates returned inside the dungeon.

“Sigh.”

With the promotion ceremony over, it was time to make a new schedule from today. It was going to be insanely busy. There was a mountain of work to do.

Like planning the kids’ future operations.

And expanding the dungeon.

And my personal training, too. Ah, but about 70% of my personal training time would now be switched to sex time.

“Shaa. Master. What should we do now?”

“Wait a moment. I’ll tell you right away.”

At my words, all the women, except the sulky Reika, lined up in a row. I immediately told them their tasks for today.

“Sharan. There are still places on the dungeon walls and ceiling not covered with tree roots, right? Could you reinforce those areas?”

“Yes, Master.”

“And Lumica.”

“Should I continue working on the underground waterway? It’s almost complete.”

“Oh! Then please do that!”

Lumica was always so quick and efficient.

“And Serinu.”

“Yeah.”

“How have you found it since you came yesterday?”

“It’s really fascinating and fun. But we need a few more rooms to accommodate all of us. Places for us to sleep and put our stuff? It’s necessary.”

I had already been planning to do that.

Pixies were more skilled with their hands than I had thought. I was planning to build a workshop for them. They were a species good at crafting things.

“Right. I’m planning to start the expansion from today. I’ll decide the location.”

“Got it! But what should we do?”

“Well, scouting or production tasks. And from tomorrow, we’ll start basic military training.”

“Military training?”

“Training for combat. Let’s have a brief session. And today, you can help the kobolds with their construction.”

“Okay!”

With that, I had assigned tasks to all my women.

“Then let’s start working today!”

“Shaa!”

Immediately, the three women entered the dungeon, and at the same moment, Muturi emerged with his working tools.

“Good, Muturi. Continue with the leather crafting.”

“Grak.”

Muturi replied succinctly and made his way to his work area. I needed to assign a few more apprentices to him… Now, the only one left was Sister Reika.

ㅡSwoosh.

I turned to look at her.

“What are you looking at, idiot?”

As usual, she hurled insults.

She seemed in a bad mood today as well.

“Oh, do you have a fierce look in your eyes? Planning to threaten me with sex again? Should I go lie down in the prison?”

“Surprisingly proactive today, aren’t you?”

“Bullshit… Ah♥ Ahh♥ Damn♥”

I approached her, kissed her neck, and caressed her through her clothes near her private area; soon, moans escaped her lips. She was no longer able to resist me.

“Get away from me, you bastard!”

“Going to use harsh words?”

“Wouldn’t you then? Huh♥”

“Sister. Could you give me a kiss?”

“Who would kiss you bast…!”

Despite her angry shout,

“Huep♥”

Reika kissed me as I had commanded. Even through her clothes, the erotic pattern was already activated. She couldn’t refuse my orders.

ㅡChup, slurp.

After a few minutes of kissing, I pulled away.

“…”

Reika’s eyes were dazed, and the ferocity that had marked her expression was now replaced with docility.

So today… Yes.

I decided it was time to train Reika a little.

“Sister Reika. Please wait in the master bedroom. I’ll be there soon.”

“…Bastard.”

With those words, Reika turned and made her way into the dungeon.

“Good.”

I resolved to quickly complete all my pending tasks.

ㅡTap tap tap.

I headed straight for the goblin interior squad.

“Buril!”

“Keruk? My lord?”

“Today, start by taking your subordinates to the training ground and work with the kids. They’ve just woken up, so they need to get their movements in sync.”

“Kerk! Understood!”

The goblins instantly commenced their training preparations.

Next was Imsoong.

“Imsoong!”

“Kruk!”

“Now you’re a platoon leader, too! We need to enhance your command skills, right?!”

“Krrurrurk! Yes, my lord!”

His way of speaking?

“Take your subordinates to the training ground and observe Buril’s training methods!”

“Buril!”

“You have less experience than Buril! Learn from him to surpass him!”

“Krrurrurk! I’ll work hard!”

“Good!”

The imps began their training preparations. Finally, I went to the kobold interior squad and addressed Gyuil.

“Gyuil, come with me for a moment!”

“Gyusat!”

“Here. We’re going to create a new interior squad. We need a place for the pixies to live. You understand? The pixies will arrive soon to help!”

“Gyusatsat!”

“Work hard! I’ll give you all a magic infusion at dinner!”

With that, I finished giving out orders.

“Good.”

Tomorrow, I will issue an order to Buril for a subordinate gathering operation. Whether it was goblins, imps, or kobolds, he should just kidnap whoever he saw. Buril would manage it well.

Imsoong will receive an order for a hunting operation. He just needs to take the imps for gathering and hunting.

Gyuil would do the same.

I should also assign a pixie to both Buril and Imsoong as an adjutant. Their operational capabilities would greatly increase with a pixie who could fly and knew the geography.

I was already looking forward to it.

“Then.”

I headed straight for the master bedroom.

ㅡDrrrk.

As I opened the door and entered,

“…”

There was Reika, kneeling and praying.

“Sister Reika? Were you praying?”

“… Can’t you see?”

“Don’t speak so coldly. Aren’t we going to live together from now on?”

“Nonsense.”

“Nonsense? From now on, you’ll pray only to me.”

“Really spouting nonsense as if it’s a talent!”

“Anyway, Sister Reika.”

“What.”

“Please take off your clothes.”

“Sigh. Damn it. How did I end up as a sex slave to this bastard…”

ㅡSwish.

Reika undressed without further complaint.

Now, I would start the horn-growing training. Once the horns had grown, I could trust her and assign tasks to her. Reika, originally a human nun, had potential as an officer.
