The next day, Shizu held him while he was in his chibi form. She rubbed her cheek against his cheek as he had this emotionless expression on his face. Yet, it didn't reduce her excitement as she kept rubbing his cheek and also his tummy.
"...can you stop now?"
Even if he didn't mind being petted like this, this was too much!
"Not yet. I am not satisfied enough."
While his enormous form was amazing, his chibi form was so cute!
Like any other female, she was weak against cute, furry beings, especially when this was also her man, so her emotion couldn't be controlled anymore. Frankly, she wanted to put her face against his belly and take a deep breath in this furry heaven, but was it okay? Well, it should be okay, right?
And she really did that.
"...." Tamazuki.
"Enough! Enough!"
Tamazuki quickly ran away from Shizu while making up his mind to have his revenge tonight.
"Wait, Tamazuki!"
Shizu chased him with a smile.
"...."
Rimuru was jealous. He was also cute, right? Yet why did no woman do that to him? Was it because Tamazuki had fur? It was fur, right?
"Master, you are also cute." Ranga, felt the change in his master's emotions, quickly said.
"Ranga..." Rimuru was moved to tears.
"Rimura-sama."
Rimuru turned and felt surprised. "Benimaru?"
The young master ogre had evolved. His body had become smaller, but his appearance had become human-like. Still, the greatest change would probably come from the massive leap in magical energy.
"Yes, it's me." Benimaru showed a happy smile.
Similarly, the rest also changed.
Rimuru saw Souei, the blue-haired ogre, also evolved, and Souei's change was quite similar to Benimaru's. Meanwhile, Kurobee was the one that eased him the most since this guy was just like an ordinary middle age man.
"Kurobee?"
"Yes, Rimuru-sama?"
"Let's get along well, Kurobee!"
"Yes, Rimuru-sama!"
Rimuru was happy with Kurobee, but then he was dumbfounded by the change in Shion and Shuna.
Shuna aside, since the basis of this princess ogre was rather good, or rather, she was quite beautiful even before she evolved, Shion's transformation shocked him so much!
Shion wasn't much different from a monster before. Her skin was dark, and her expression was fierce. If there was something that made her better than others, it was, without a doubt, the size of her bosom. They were huge. No, they were enormous!
However, this time, Shion had become a beauty!
Sexy beauty!
Rimuru was shocked to the core!
By now, the beauty in this village wasn't only Shizu but Shion and Shuna.
"Rimuru-sama!"
Shion, Shuna, and Hakurou greeted Rimuru respectfully. Even if Rimuru didn't name them, Rimuru was Tamazuki's uncle, and Rimuru was also one of the leaders of this village. They respected him, but at the same time, they also wanted to know where Tamazuki was.
Still, Rimuru was also quite surprised by Hakurou's transformation since this old man had become a dandy old man.
The only problem now was their clothes.
Rimuru could tell that their clothes didn't fit them, and he wanted to tell them to change their clothes, but...
"Ah, are you Shion and Shuna?"
Shizu, who had been playing with Tamazuki, returned with Tamazuki in his arms.
Tamazuki was still in his chibi form, letting himself be hugged by this woman with a bitter expression.
Yet, a cute one had always been a cutie.
Even if they saw his form and he had this bitter expression on his face, their hearts almost exploded since this was the ultimate cuteness that they had never seen. Moreover, after being named after him and watching his strength, they had become more reverence for him, especially since they had become even stronger because of him.
"Tamazuki-sama!" 6x
The six of them also showed their respect toward him, but Shion and Shuna showed jealousy toward Shizu, yet they also knew the identity of this woman. On their feast before, everyone had explained Shizu's identity.
Shizu might be a human, but she was also Tamazuki's woman.
While it surprised them, it didn't change their respect for him.
"It's good that you have recovered well."
Saying those words, Tamazuki returned to his hybrid form as he observed all of them.
"Your words are too kind for us," Benimaru answered.
Still, similar to Rimuru, Tamazuki was also surprised by the change in Shuna and Shion. Yet, he also didn't feel surprised, especially when he received a notice from the system in the middle of the night.
<Good job. The two of them have become such a beauty, and you also name them. In other words, you are their master, and they are your slaves. You can do whatever you want with them, even the perverted request>
<Hehehe>
"..." Tamazuki.
<Congratulations, you have received "Magic Talent">
<Congratulations, you have received "Strenght Manipulation">
While the system was as abominable as ever, the reward was still as amazing as ever.
"I know that this might be sudden, but we should be prepared since we might encounter a battle anytime."
"Yes." 6x
"Hakurou, you seem quite good with a sword."
"My skill is nothing in front of you, Tamazuki-sama." Hakurou wasn't humble, but he knew well that Tamazuki's skill was just above all of them. Tamazuki's skill was beyond the sky; it was impossible to see as they were only ants in front of him.
"You shouldn't be humble." Tamazuki shook his head before he thought of something. "By the way, can you train the rest of the hobgoblins for the battle?"
"Please leave that to me."
In the tribe before, Hakurou was also in charge of training the younger generations, or rather, he was the strongest warrior there.
"But before that, let's change your clothes first."
Tamazuki had to say their transformation was amazing, but their clothes were horrible. Nevertheless, he also wanted to check his new power since those two rewards definitely would make him even stronger.
Yet, on Lake Shisu, which was the center of the Great Jura Forest, something big was happening.
In this wetland, it was controlled by the Lizardmen, a race of Demi-Humans descended from the progeny between dragons and humans. At this moment, they faced a crisis that they had never thought of.
Orcs.
Yes, an orc.
At this moment, they were about to be attacked by the orc, yet because of this, they were rather calm, but the soldiers who made the report couldn't show that calm.
"The numbers. What's the number of the orcs?"
"..." The soldiers.
"Hey, why didn't you answer me?"
The soldiers gulped before he told the truth. "200,000."
"?!"
"200,000?!"
"Impossible!"
"How can there be so much of an orc?!"
No one could believe such a report. They thought that it was a joke, but the soldiers, who had found the orcs had moved to the south side of Lake Shisu, weren't joking and even used "Magic Perception" to check the numbers of the orcs.
Even so, hearing that, they still had a hard time believing, yet the king of the lizard man made a conclusion.
"—Orc Lord."
"...Orc Lord?"
Hearing that, no one could say calmly since they knew the only reason why 200,000 orcs could be organized to rampage through this forest was because of the existence of the Orc Lord.
A very rare and powerful member of the Orc race with high intelligence who appears roughly every few centuries.
When it appeared, it would bring disaster everywhere.
Once again, it appeared and brought terror to everyone who was living in this forest.
The lizardmen knew that they had to do something, or else their fate would be similar to those ogres which were extinct.
Meanwhile, Tamazuki watched the spar between the ogres. No, it should be Oni as they had evolved, and to his surprise, they seemed to inherit some of his abilities.
