**********

Yuki enjoyed a good night sleep and only woke the next day at noon because of all the commotion happening inside the settlement as Rimuru seemed to be naming monsters again left and right and they were cheering him…

These monsters included orcs and lizardmen that wanted to join the settlement as well as various migrating goblin villages…

Yuki looked out of the window with an annoyed look on his face and he couldn't help but want to punch Rimuru once more, but he left him be for now as he was approached by Shizue smiling brightly at him "Good morning Yuki-kun, have you recovered from your fatigue?"

Right after, Sacha popped out of nowhere and said "Yuki-sama you are already awake, I will prepare something for you to eat"

Yuki's mood brightened up slightly after hearing this, but then Kayle approached him with a stern look on his face and he knew that he was going to ruin his mood again "Yuki-sama, the dryad said that she hopes you don't use your aura of corruption in the forest carelessly… It's very harmful"

"Tell her she can go fuck herself next time you meet her" Replied Yuki with a warm smile and Kayle didn't flinch at all as he calmly responded "I shall deliver your message"

'Hmm? He accepted it so easily? This guy definitely wants to cause me trouble… Wait and see if I don't teach you a lesson!' Thought Yuki before he turned his attention to Shizue and asked "When do you plan to go back to the free guild to bring the kids over here?"

Shizue stared into the distance and responded "I will be leaving tomorrow"

"Good, don't take too much time, you still have training to go through" Said Yuki and Shizue giggled slightly before she said "Don't worry coach, I won't take too long"

"Good" Replied Yuki with a smile as the wheels inside of his mind turned rapidly at a terrifying speed and time almost seemed to stop… This was the power of his lucid mind that increased his thinking speed by a factor of 10!

'Now then, excluding the system, I basically gained nothing that directly benefits me from all of this which is a big no no after all the trouble that I had to go through… How do I change that?' thought Yuki before he noticed that the three orc generals from yesterday weren't sitting with the group that was waiting to be named by Rimuru and he couldn't help but go out and ask the stupid slime what was going on "Yo, snot-kun, what's up with those orc generals?"

"I'm a slime, not a not" Replied Rimuru before he turned to the orc generals that began approaching them after Yuki made his appearance and said "They are actually waiting for you…"

"Me?" Asked Yuki in surprise while pointing at himself but suddenly one of the orc generals that was wearing a cape opened his mouth and said "Yuki-sama, please accept us as your humble servants, we will do anything to work for you and repay the favor of freeing us"

Then the three of them knelt down in front of him… Yuki was surprised by the sudden gesture but he didn't mind getting a few subordinates that would do his bidding, especially since this would ensure the loyalty of the other orcs to him

"Sure" He replied easily and one of the orcs that was wearing a heavy armor couldn't help but ask "Really? You would accept us after all you had to go through?"

'I killed thousands of your kind buddy… You are the one that should be angry at me... but I like this attitude' thought Yuki before he said "You guys were under the control of the orc lord, I can't blame you for your actions, plus the war is already over, and if those Kijin over there can find it in there hearts to forgive you even after their village got destroyed… How can I not to?"

The three orc generals had their eyes watering slightly and they couldn't help but stare at Yuki in gratitude as they knelt even lower and said "Thank you so much, our master"

Yuki was taken by surprise at how easily they were moved and he felt that this was a feature that most sentient monsters he met so far had when they met someone stronger than them or when they felt gratitude… "I will have to name you then to commemorate this day"

"Name us…" Muttered an orc general that was wearing a leather armor and holding a double-handed axe by his side

"Of course, since you are my followers, I can't have you stay this weak… plus I need a way to refer to you so naming you guys is a must" Said Yuki which brought tears to the three orc generals as they kept thanking Yuki

'Well, I guess I already changed this world, beyond recognition, first saving Shizue and now two more orc generals survived this incident and they are all going to follow me in the future… Not bad' thought Yuki while completely ignoring the fact that he antagonized multiple powers to spread his reputation and decided to ponder on what to name them instead

'Naming monsters grants them a certain ability or skill from the master, although nothing of unique skill rank or higher can be granted' thought Yuki as he remembered how Ranga got Rimuru's black lightning or how Benimaru got his black fire and whatnot

'I wonder what they will get from me? Dariun was lucky enough to get Quick step, I wonder what these orcs will get' thought Yuki before he said "I decided on your names, armored fella, I shall name you Gerald, Axe fella, your name is Gerdal, and you unarmed fella, I shall name you after the orc disaster in hope you surpass him in the future so your name shall be Gerd!"

A huge amount of magicules gushed from Yuki's body and into the bodies of the three orcs showing just how strong they were as monsters even before this naming process, but now they turned into even more terrifying monsters…

"Thank you so much master for this gift, we shall never forget this favor" Said Gerd with an emotional face and Yuki simply smiled at them and said "Stand up and go organize your people for now"

Gerd nodded at him before he turned to the armored Gerald and said "Gerdal and I shall do as you asked my master, but please let Gerald near you to protect you or attend to any of your needs"

Yuki nodded at this reluctantly "I don't need a bodyguard but sure, oh and stop calling me master, just call me Yuki"

The three orc generals smiled faintly and Gerd replied "Yes, Yuki-sama" Before they left to organize their people that were being named by Rimuru who couldn't help but yell at Yuki

"Yuki!!! help me name them pleaseee, I can't name all +100000 of them on my own"

However, Yuki simply ignored him and went back to the comfort of his house 'You already got a demon lord seed, just shut up already, you should be thankful I don't ask you to spit out all the treasures inside your body for it' Thought Yuki in his head although he too was feeling something forming inside of him…

….

Meanwhile, somewhere in the holy empire of Ruberious, Hinata had just received a letter from Yuki and she couldn't help but crush it with all her strength after she recalled its content inside her mind as if Yuuki was saying it directly to her

'Hinata-san, As you heard before, Shizue-san is confirmed to be dead, and the perpetrators are none other than the monsters building a new settlement in the great Jura forest under the leadership of a unique monster and the otherworlder Yuki Chibana, and I'm sorry to say that they dared to defile her body and turn it into a puppet for their own use… Please return our teacher's body and let us at least give her a proper burial – Sincerely Yuuki Kagurazaka'

"How dare that bastard do this to teacher after I trusted him, I will kill him with my own hands along with those monsters" Thought Hinata as she picked up her sword and started gathering an army from the church to crusade toward the great Jura forest…

…

In the sorcerer's nation of Sarion, they had just received a report that Yuki seemed to have lost his power as well as gained proof that he had the ability to steal their treasures and Elmesia couldn't help but laugh loudly as she ordered "Prepare our forces and inform our allies, we will marsh to the great Jura forest as soon as possible!"

…

In the puppet nation jistav, Clayman smashed a cup of wine on the floor in anger after hearing about the failure of their plan and he couldn't help but want to kill those pests that interfered with him. However, it was Laplace, the vice president of the harlequin moderate alliance that kept trying to reason with him as he said "Clayman, don't be impulsive, that guy Yuki is far from what he's showing, don't underestimate him"

"A guy that could barely kill some useless pigs, don't make me laugh Laplace, I can kill the likes of him easily" replied Clayman arrogantly which brought a frown to Laplace's face as he said "I'm telling you this for your own good, don't worry, someone will soon go to take care of him and we won't even need to make a move"

"What someone are you talking about?" Asked Clayman and Laplace smirked widely and said "Hinata Sakaguchi"

"HAHAHAHA, it seems like he's dead indeed, good" Replied Clayman which put Laplace's heart at ease as he exchanged some more words with Clayman and left… Although just as he left, Clayman's expression turned twisted once more before he communicated with one of his calamity level subordinates, a Majin named Mjurran!

"Mjurran, I want you to go to the great Jura forest and infiltrate the settlement of monsters there, you better not fail me or you will know the consequences" said Clayman coldly and Mjurran shivered slightly before she replied "Yes, I won't fail you"

"Good" replied Clayman before he cut his communication with her and started pondering how he can kill these monsters in other ways and an idea soon popped in his head as he contacted Laplace and told him that he wanted to unleash Charybdis into the great Jura forest! This was a disaster-level monster…

…

As all of these undercurrents were happening throughout the world, Yuki's attention was attracted by a dangerous threat that was approaching them in the form of a small girl 'Oh it's Milim, I guess she already heard about what happened yesterday and the forming of the great Jura alliance huh… Guy's spy network is indeed terrifying, I wonder what I missed when I had my abilities locked' Thought Yuki while watching Milim crash into the ground not far from the entrance of the settlement as Rimuru and the Kijin rushed to see what was the source of the terrifying amount of magicules they were sensing…

"Hmmm? Why do I feel a familiar presence here?" muttered Milim while watching as a few monsters came out to face her warily and she couldn't help but lock into Rimuru as she felt like he had a pure draconic aura to him…
