Amy’s appearance seemed quite erotic, so I stared blankly at her without even realizing it. No, I couldn’t move my gaze elsewhere. It was no different from simply having a picture drawn on the lower abdomen, but it felt so erotic.

In particular, I don’t know if it was because Amy had 11-figure abs, but the combination of her abs and her stigma made her feel even more erotic. So much so that I want to keep watching.

But I couldn’t just admire it forever, so I admired it a little more and patted Amy’s lower stomach.

“It’s done.”

“… … Is this the end?”

“Did you think there would be something strange? It’s a pity, but it’s really the end. Wake up.”

At the sound of the end, Amy stood up from the workbench, looking confused. Then, he lowered his head and looked at the pattern engraved on his lower abdomen.

Unlike the skin on my arms and legs that seemed to have a slightly healthy tan, my abdomen, which was covered with clothes under any circumstances, was pure white. And, the symbol on the spot was black with just a hint of red.

Since nothing stands out more than black on white, the stigma also made its presence felt very strongly.

“Um… … . It’s a little weird, but it’s not something I can’t stop watching.”

Amy looked at the pattern engraved on her lower abdomen for a moment, then pulled up her pants again, as if she liked it.

Anyway, I felt like I was accepting everything because I knew that stigma was necessary to achieve what I wanted, and I knew that I couldn’t undo what had already been engraved.

Amy calmly pulled up her pants and immediately walked over to the sofa she was sitting on. And, I gave a high five to Jiena, who was also standing up at the same time, as if we were changing players.

Giena, who had changed players, made a noise and came towards me.

“Did you see what Amy did? There is no pain or anything, so lie down comfortably.”

Jienna nodded at what I said and climbed onto the workbench and lay down comfortably. I don’t know if it was because I was watching the work process, but I even lifted my clothes and exposed my lower abdomen.

I don’t know if it was because she was an elf, but her abdomen, a little whiter than Amy’s, was clearly visible.

“Boss… … . Yes, please be nice.”

Jiena’s cheeks and ears turned red after she had ripped open her stomach, and she closed her eyes tightly. I smiled at the sight that somehow seemed cute, and branded Jienna just like I did with Amy.

I drew a magic circle with a brush and activated the magic circle with black magic, causing a pattern identical to Amy’s to be placed on my lower abdomen.

The process of branding the two people was completed in an instant. In fact, carving a brand was not difficult, to the extent that it took longer to prepare the materials than carving the brand.

Like Amy, Jienna patted the spot where the pattern was placed and then came out of the studio with the two women who had gathered up their clothes.

“Boss.”

“Do you have a lot of questions? I’ll tell you while we eat.”

And, looking at Gienna and Amy who couldn’t hide their curious expressions, they headed straight to the restaurant.

A simple meal was already prepared in the restaurant. It was prepared by skeletons, and it was more delicious and well-prepared than expected. This is because Jienna and Amy, as well as their mother, passed down the recipes they knew to Skeleton Mage, who served as their butler.

Thanks to Skeleton Mage, who was able to recreate the taste of her mother’s cooking, Zienna and Amy, every meal was plentiful and delicious.

Anyway, we sat down at the table and started talking while eating briefly. Since there seemed to be a lot of questions, I thought I would first explain the function of stigma.

“You know the main effect you can see when you engrave the stigma because I told you about it, right? One that can control the undead, and one that can protect souls.”

“Yes! But since when can I control the undead? I already had a lot of work to do at the store, so I wondered if I should hire separate workers.”

“That will take about two days. Anyway, besides those two effects, there are several other functions.”

As Alchemy Silver was used to make the brand more powerful, there were several additional features added.

The first was to insert black magic that could directly connect consciousness. It was literally connecting consciousness, and I was able to connect consciousness to Gienna and Amy. Of course, words were a conscious connection, but in reality, it was only possible to exchange light conversation. Even that was impossible when we were too far away.

“Still, if you’re in the city, you can have a conversation like you do now. You can call me when something urgent happens, and I can give you instructions if you need them.”

“… … Aren’t you the only one who likes that? It seems like they’re just going to spoil us even when we’re out.”

“You and Jiena can do it if you just learn the tricks. Well, until I learn the trick, like you said, it’s only good for me.”

It was just the right level for running some errands, but it was also something that could actually be very useful in an urgent situation.

And, unlike the first, I could confidently say that the second was a fairly useful function in any situation.

That is, it was a function that allowed the use of black magic. Even without any basic knowledge, it was possible to use some black magic that I had decided on in advance.

“Black magic? Can we really use black magic?”

“Really? If I snap my fingers, do you start lighting fires and throwing curses?”

Of course, the two women jumped up from their seats after hearing about such a function. They were two people who had lived lives far from magic, so they were very excited to hear that they could use magic.

Magic is not something that anyone can use just because they want to. Like black magic, magic was also a field where talent was quite influential. Those without talent were unable to use magic even if they knew how to manipulate mana.

Using magical artifacts was the only way for those without magic skills to use magic. In fact, the brand was made into a kind of artifact, so it was possible for the two people to use black magic.

“Basically, it allows you to use some useful black magic and curses. Like Amy said, there are black magic that can be used in daily life, such as creating flames, and things like paralyzing curses.”

I wanted to let him use something powerful, but I couldn’t let him use that. This was the limit for carving a stigma the size of a palm. Either I had to spend more pension money, or I had to engrave enough stigma to fill the back plate.

But Ziena and Amy responded as if that was enough. Depending on the type of use, black magic that creates fire or the paralysis curse could be very useful.

However, Amy, who was nodding as if she was very satisfied, looked at me with a bright smile.

“Andrew, aren’t there other functions?”

“Uh… … . There is, right? Since it’s connected to me, it has functions such as being able to figure out where I am and storing dark magic.”

“Ah, that’s not everything. Because you know everything? After you squeezed me, you made a face saying you wanted revenge. The stigma must have some other function. No?”

I couldn’t help but be shocked to see Amy talking as if she knew everything. As Amy said, there were functions that had not yet been revealed.

Seeing that Jiena had joined in and seemed to be telling me to talk quickly, I ended up raising a white flag and shouting surrender.

“It contains the curse of sensory amplification. I can activate it if I want.”

As a man, it was a curse he put into his mind with the sole thought that he could not be defeated in bed. And that too with special improvements.

Unlike before, the improved curse did not simply amplify the sensations of the entire body. It was an improved version that amplified the sensation only in the area I wanted, or amplified the sensation only when it came into contact with my body. It was said to be a curse of improved sensory amplification, possible because it was connected to me through a stigma.

“Really, do you want to win that much?”

“That’s a man’s pride.”

There was nothing I could do as there were not one but two women. It wasn’t difficult to satisfy the surprisingly weak Jienna, but Amy, who had tremendous stamina, was a different story. By doing this, I was able to maintain my physical strength while still being fully satisfied.

Fortunately, neither Ziena nor Amy had any problems with the fact that they contained the curse of sensory amplification. The purpose was not to harm you, but to give you a more intense feeling in bed. Still, I couldn’t help but notice that the way he looked at me changed to look a little like he was looking at a pervert.

Since I didn’t want to continue receiving that kind of attention, I decided to immediately change the topic.

“For your information, all the functions and effects mentioned so far require dark magic to be activated.”

“Dark magic? Do we have to eat that blood essence you make?”

And, as the topic of the story changed as I intended, the two women’s perspectives changed. Although he was filled with curiosity again, his gaze seemed a little worried. This seemed to be because, unlike mana, dark magic was not easily obtained through ordinary means.

“There is no need for that. Because I will personally deliver the dark magic. Didn’t I just say that a moment ago? It is said that dark magic can be stored. I will maintain the function of the brand with the dark magic power I have stored up. If you look at the pattern on your ship, it’s a hollow heart pattern, right? That displays the remaining amount of stored dark magic. It’s empty right now because there’s nothing saved, and when it’s full, the heart pattern will be filled as well.”

At my words, the two women simultaneously lowered their pants and looked at the stigma engraved on them.

“Once the stigma is properly established, I will replenish your dark magic power, so you will not be able to use many functions properly right now. Also, if you fill it up, you can keep it for about a month as long as you don’t use black magic and curses a lot, so keep that in mind.”

When I said that I would fill it up soon, the two women pulled up their pants again and nodded.

However, Jiena, who was adjusting her clothes, suddenly started to look at me. With one hand in my waist to organize my clothes.

“Ah, boss. So what happens if you use up all the dark magic you have stored up? Wizards feel very painful when they use up all their mana… … .”

“You don’t have to worry about that. It’s different from the way a wizard or warlock uses magic. It’s just that the brand doesn’t perform as well as it should.”

After hearing that there would be no problem even if all the stored dark magic was used, Jienna looked relieved and finished arranging her clothes again.

And, as if they had answered their questions about stigma, the two women stopped asking questions, and we ended the meal by talking about various things as usual.
