Kapitel 70: Ghostly Curves

[Day 45]

At around 7 AM, we finally finished the construction. Even I was already feeling tired, because using Kinesis related skills tires my mental energy. Considering that I was just right beside the dungeon, I went inside to inspect it and I was surprised by something quite disturbing.

The whole dungeon was filled with Blood Monsters, even to the ceilings! The poor monsters couldn't even move as they looked at me with puppy eyes. It seems that the Dungeon System doesn't allow them to leave, so they usually just cannibalize, but even so, they still reproduced far too quickly, making it impossible for them to even move on how filled everything was.

Sigh… We need to start working here.

Hmm, the Demi-Humans are rather perfect for the job. They are strong enough to kill them but weak enough to still get substantial EXP from the monsters. They can also accumulate money to go back home if they desire.

Of course, I will give better privileges to my servants, there is still a lot of promising rookies that can easily gain tons of levels here. Mostly the evolved Goblins, Trolls and Monkeys, and the battle capable slaves.

I just remembered that I had several enslaved creatures from the dungeon sleeping inside my Item Box, so I left them all here to kill some Blood Monsters and save the Magic Cores for me, of course, I ordered all the Blood Monsters to quietly stay still and awaits their deaths.

The Monsters that I released were a Corrosive Cube Slime, Jumping Alchemy Slime, Triple Elemental Sage Slime, and Crying Specter Emperor. I was kind of disappointed about their strength when suddenly, I had a weird idea.

What if I combine them all into one thing?

Well, I've already fused more than a hundred slimes, but they never were fused with a ghost.

I quickly called them back to me and used [Slime Combination] to fuse the slimes and then I used [Synthesis] to stick the ghost inside. I also added a [Giant Undead Core] with [Synthesis] again for the final touch.

Flash!

When the Synthesis finished, a new being was born. It was different than anything I've ever seen before. It was like a humanoid figure of a ghost but made of a semi-corporeal slime that I've never seen before. The figure sometimes would resemble a woman while floating around… Wait, why is that?

Ding!

[You successfully created a [Chimera] Monster: [Ghostly Slime Specter Empress]

"Huh? Why an Empress? Wait, is its humanoid form because of certain Slime Demi-Goddess that never leaves my Slimes alone?"

I quickly inspected my Chimera monster with Appraisal.

"Its Blooia! Why does she make every Slime a beautiful woman?! Well, it's not like I don't like it… At least Guubo hasn't been her target yet"

As I inspected the Ghostly Slime, I saw that she had a nice curvy figure, her eyes were completely black except that her pupils glowed on a pale blue flame, she also had an expressionless face. As I inspected her entire body, the ghost began to feel uncomfortable and began to suddenly blush.

"C-Can you, please… Stop looking at my body like that, Master?"

"Y-You have intelligence?!"

The girl nodded.

"Indeed… Its thanks to the Soul Core that you gave me, after receiving Blooia's blessing, my soul evolved on its own, and my personality was generated alongside my mind and common sense"

"S-So that's how it works…"

I decided to name this Ghost Slime Girl; Yurei, which simply mean Ghost in Japanese.

Yurei floated around with happiness on her face, she seemed to like her name.

Afterward, I ordered her to slay Blood Monsters until she evolved, I also told her that some of my other servants will come here so she doesn't think that they're enemies.

"Alright Master, I will work very hard to make you happy!"

As Yurei vaporized Blood Monsters with her Triple Elemental Beam, I slowly went back to the Kingdom with the rest of the Undead.

When I reached the Kingdom, several people were admiring the new road, some even wondered what was this for. I quickly explained that it was a road that went towards a dungeon of my domain. Some people became excited over exploring a dungeon on their own, and I realized that this could generate the birth of adventurers between my Kingdom, people that don't serve the Kingdom has Knights but wants to explore and get stronger on their own…

Although this Kingdom is too small for this to happen yet, I can see it coming. I will have to regulate these people and perhaps create even more rules for Adventurers. Sigh… I just want to sleep.

I quickly flew to my room and found my wives still sleeping on the bed, most of them were hugging the pillows were I usually rest my head, it was only one night but they really missed me.

I silently went to bed without waking them up.

I think my sleeping schedule is messed up because I woke up around 5 PM again… Well, it's not like it matters.

When I woke up, Rimuru and Brontes were in the room playing with a board game, it seems that they awaited till I woke up. When they noticed me, they hugged me tightly and I had a nice bath with them.

It seems that Nesiphae and Gaby were fighting and practicing on the Training Grounds with the rest of my servants, demi-humans, and Humans. While Zehe was with Herbell researching magic on Meiji's Library. They seem to have discovered that the young Monkey Mage had quite a nice collection of Magic Books that belonged to the Monkey Emperor in the past.

I'm glad that everyone had grown independent and has their own activities and things to look up to, its not good to remain too dependent on me to do everything, everyone has their own lives after all.

Well, Rimuru and Brontes were way more loyal to me. Rimuru is almost like a puppy sometimes, on the meaning of royalty…

And Brontes depends on me a lot, she has grown too attached to me. Well, it's not like I'm complaining about having two of my beautiful wives at my side, they make my life more fun.

While I was working yesterday, the Wagyu Team, which was originally Kizuato team, alongside the Alligator, Spider and Squirrels team came back. It was very lively in the dining room and I was able to meet with everyone, I missed the fluffy Wagyu a lot so I hugged him and rubbed his belly. He became way stronger on the dungeon; I could sense that he was very close to evolution.

As previously stated, Kizuato and Wagyu team went to the Wind Shrine Dungeon, a place filled with strange beings made of Wind and different kinds of Birds. The tenth-floor boss was a powerful bird named [Calamity Storm Swan], a powerful swan with emerald-like wings that were capable to summon storms by just flapping its wings. Wagyu told me that it was quite the hard battle but after countless hardships, they managed to pull through.

He gave me some of the dungeon monster corpses and materials that they dropped, alongside a big chunk of meat from the boss. He didn't need to do this, but I appreciate his kindness and loyalty.

Everyone on his team was rewarded with three [Unique+++] Reward Gifts after completing the dungeon. No Celestial Gift this time, perhaps the Gods didn't see this bird as much of a menace? Well, who knows what those bastards think?

Anyways, Wagyu and the rest obtained tons of useful items and materials. According to Wagyu, he obtained a [Shiny Resplendent Storm Armor], beautiful armor decorated with the emerald wings of the [Calamity Storm Swan]. Because the Armor wasn't an [Legendary] item, Wagyu managed to eat it after dissolving it for almost an entire day and obtained the whole armor has a Skill, I was happy that my blessing restriction wasn't as hard with things like this, or any non-humanoid would never be able to wear armor or weapons.

Because the armor became a skill, when Wagyu summoned it, the whole equipment was able to adapt to his body. Wagyu looked incredibly good with his new shiny armor, and he waved his three tails as I praised his new strength. The armor even came with beautiful emerald wings that would flap whenever Wagyu ordered them as if they were part of his body.

The armor isn't just decoration, it came with several useful skills like [Self Evolution], [Storm Summoning] and [Storm Enhancement]. Which boosted Wagyu's speed and power, and let him summon powerful Wind Storms without the necessity to spend his MP.

And about the other team, the Team made by the first slaves finally came back from the [Thunder Shrine Dungeon], a dungeon that was filled with Thunder related monsters, according to the team, most of the monsters were Thunder Lizards, Magnet Golems, and Thunder Ghosts. With the last boss being the [Thunderous Adamantine Lizard Emperor], which was a powerful giant lizard of around 40 meters tall, it possessed more than 12 limbs and each of its steps generated thunderous sounds all around. They managed to defeat it after using cooperative combat styles. They got three [Unique+++] Reward Gifts too.

Due to this long journey, everyone on the team ended evolving without exception.

First of all, the Hairy Spider Warriors evolved into powerful Arachne Variants, most of them became [Hairy Tarantula Arachne Warrior] while some became different variants oriented in magic like [Spiritual Jumping Spider Arachne].

However, Jorogumo, the strongest Hairy Spider Queen had already evolved in the past into a strong Spider Variant related to Strength and Fire. After evolving again, she became a [Fiery Oni Arachne], a powerful mixed-race Arachne, which has red Oni skin alongside demon horns on her forehead. Her humanoid body became covered on shiny and slim muscles, making her belly look quite beautiful, her face was very pretty and refined, having a long and white hair and golden human eyes, with six tiny eyes on her forehead.

Her spider part became robust and strong, covered on a hard almost adamantine-like red fur with striped black markings. Her strength skyrocketed and she became proficient wielding heavy weapons like Clubs, Axes or Maces. She obtained a powerful red-colored Mace named [Lucifer Punishment] from one of the Reward Gifts that she was currently using. After evolution, her personality became more self-confident, and she even flirted with me.

Secondly, the Dark Squirrel group surprisingly evolved into demi-humans too, becoming Squirrel Beast men, who looked almost human except from the fur on some parts of their arms and legs, the two cute squirrel ears on top of their heads, and their big squirrel tails.

The strongest Dark Squirrels were two male and one female, the first male was named Kuraen, he was talented on physical and magical attacks, so he evolved into [Fierce Flaming Squirrel Beast man] with the class [Magic Paladin]. He had a rather muscular figure and was pretty tall, his fur was bright red and his eyes were black colored. He had a cheerful and gentlemanly personality.

The second male was named Yamiyo and he was talented in powerful magic and had a certain affinity with Shadow Magic, after evolving, he became a small Squirrel Beast man variant called [Shadow Apprentice Squirrel Beast man], he now possessed a small Crystal Ball named [Shadow Caller Crystal Ball] that he used to conjure powerful cursing spells that he got from his class [Illusion and Curses Shaman]. Yamiyo was rather shy and more silent, he was very tiny compared to the rest of the demi-humans, and had dark fur and red eyes with pale white skin.

And third, was Kaguya, the promising Dark Squirrel Queen, she was always working very hard to become stronger despite the weakness of the Dark Squirrel race, which seemed to be one of the weakest in the forest. But after evolving into a demi-human, this changed. Due to her hard efforts and training, she became an advanced variant named [Sacred Flame Squirrel Empress], this race was a super rare variant, even the system didn't have much information on this. She looked quite different than the rest of her comrades, being of a medium stature, she obtained a white pale skin alongside different golden markings on her belly, red eyes, and instead of one tail, she had three, and her entire fur was blonde with a red luster.

Although she seemed like a fragile noble princess, her powerful magical aura was nothing to laugh about, she had incredible magical aptitude and obtained a [Three Tailed Sacred Squirrel Orb of Wisdom] on her forehead, with this, she was able to call on the Sacred Fire Spirits to aid her. In this form, her destructive power wasn't so far from Rimuru. Due to these powers, she also gained a beautiful organic dress that resembled a Japanese kimono decorated with flames. She was incredibly beautiful.

Lastly, there was the Foggy Swamp Alligator team, which race real name is Rock Skinned Alligator. Almost everyone on the small group (small because I massacred almost everyone) evolved into [Rock Skinned Alligator Lizardman] variants, obtaining a humanoid body and getting powerful classes, there were two girls on the team as I noticed something interesting. It seems that the male Lizardman will remain his alligator head and animal appearance, while the woman will look almost human except some scales on her body and their strong rocky claws. Now that there are River Lizardman, I hope that they can get along with the Alligator Lizardman because the last ones are very few and two women cannot keep the race alive.

The Leader of the team was Ganjo, who used to be a horrible King that only cared about himself, but after enslaving him, he slowly became more understanding of the situation he was and became a better person than cared about his few people. He once swore to become my shield, and trained every day to achieve this goal.

After training very hard, and triumphing against the dungeon boss, he evolved into the powerful and massive [Adamantine Skinned Giant Alligator Lizardman], a giant variant of the Alligator Lizardman with a massive and muscular body, from this evolution alone he almost increased his size six times!

He had a superior defense and was able to control the Earth around himself masterfully, being able to create massive Fissures and Earthquakes or even summoning powerful floating rock walls. There was very little that he couldn't do now.

After inspecting everyone, I wanted to do a small sparring with everyone and test their strengths before dinner.
