I struggled to open my eyes, which felt unbearably heavy.

When they finally did, the first thing I saw was an incredibly beautiful face—one that could make any man lose his mind at a glance.

Shizuku…

My gaze lowered to her body—sexy and flawless.

Suddenly, I felt both relieved and disappointed at the same time.

“Master, you’re awake?”

Shizuku looked at me with the gentle eyes of an older sister, her charm as a mature woman surpassing even that of that man’s favorite concubine.

“Master? Is there something wrong with my face?”

“You’re calling me Master?”

Shizuku nodded with a motherly smile that could melt any man’s heart.

“Why?”

“Because Master is Master. After Master subdued me, Master became my Master.”

Ah, my head hurt from hearing that word repeated over and over.

“Is Master alright?” Shizuku asked, worried.

“Um, I’m just a little dizzy, and my body feels a bit strange.”

“Master noticed it immediately? As expected of Master.”

Shizuku said something confusing, but I decided to ignore it.

“Weren’t you naked earlier?”

“That’s right. But since Master isn’t used to seeing a naked woman, I created clothes with magic so as not to trouble Master.”

“I appreciate that, thanks.”

“No, this is my duty as your servant. In fact, I should be apologizing for showing something indecent in front of Master.”

Shizuku lowered her head sadly, realizing her mistake and feeling guilty.

I smiled and reflexively reached out to pat her beautiful red hair.

Shizuku froze, then looked at me with an extraordinary expression.

I quickly pulled my hand back.

“Sorry, I got carried away. It must be uncomfortable being touched by a man you just met.”

I thought Shizuku would nod, but she didn’t.

Shizuku shook her head with a gentle smile on her lovely face.

“I’m very happy if Master is the one touching me.”

Her gaze turned filled with sincere affection.

I was confused. I was sure this was our first meeting, so why were her feelings toward me so strong?

Perhaps sensing my confusion, Shizuku explained a fact that made my eyes go wide.

The Chaos Master ability—always considered a useless skill—could actually enhance the goodwill of powerful beings like Shizuku.

Shizuku also understood that the strong feelings in her heart weren’t truly hers, but she didn’t care as long as she could serve me.

“So that’s why you wanted me to subdue you so badly.”

Shizuku nodded, her beautiful smile blooming.

Seriously, she was so stunning that it was hard not to admire her.

“Master doesn’t need to worry. This is my decision—to serve Master.”

“Even so, having an Ancient Red Dragon King as a servant is a bit much.”

“Is that so? The previous Chaos Master even tamed hundreds of ancient dragons, gods, demons, and other powerful beings, yet still wasn’t satisfied.”

“…”

I was speechless for a while after hearing that.

Now I was curious about the previous Chaos Master. I wanted to know why he tamed so many powerful beings.

It couldn’t have been to destroy the world—if that were the goal, the world would have ended long ago.

Grrrrk!

While thinking, my stomach suddenly growled.

Come to think of it, I hadn’t eaten anything since arriving here.

“Master is hungry? Please wait a moment, I’ll bring food for Master!”

With energetic enthusiasm, Shizuku left the cave.

“…I actually wanted to come along,” I muttered weakly. “Well, it can’t be helped. Let’s trust Shizuku and wait here.”

While waiting, I opened my status to confirm something.

The strange feeling in my body was right—massive changes had occurred in my status.

New abilities were added, and my four main attributes had skyrocketed.

Previously, the average of my four attributes was E. E-rank was above the average human but still not strong.

But after subduing Shizuku, all my attributes except magic had become SSS. I didn’t even know what that meant—A was the highest rank I knew.

Even the legendary hero who defeated the Demon King only had average A-rank stats. If SSS was higher than A, I couldn’t imagine how strong it was.

Magic was now the only attribute at EX rank—again, something I had never seen.

Still, I felt an endless flow of magic power surrounding my body. I didn’t have this feeling before, but now it was unmistakably present.

“It says here I can use elemental and non-elemental magic. Does that mean I can really use magic?”

With a bit of hesitation, I raised my hand and imagined a flame appearing on my palm.

Whoosh!

“Whoa! It actually appeared when I imagined it! Amazing! I can use magic now!”

Nothing was more satisfying than the first successful use of magic.

Caught up in my excitement, I unknowingly poured more mana into it, making the flame in my hand grow huge.

“Even the royal court mages can’t create fire this big. Now, let’s test its destructive power.”

I looked around and found a one-meter-tall boulder.

“Target acquired. Time for a test.”

Whoosh!

I threw the flame like a professional baseball pitcher.

It shot forward and passed through the stone like a ghost through a wall.

“It didn’t work? No… this is—”

BOOOOM!

The flame evaporated the boulder instantly before exploding upon hitting the cave wall.

The entire cave shook violently, though it didn’t collapse.

Panicking, I followed my human instincts and bolted out of the cave.

…..

The peaceful scenery of the Thousand Monster Forest was shattered by the massive explosion of fire, piercing through the clouds and reaching the stars.

Hundreds of millions of monsters shuddered in terror at the overwhelming pressure.

Many fled from the blast’s center, causing a monster tsunami near the forest.

Several kingdoms bordering the forest immediately declared a state of emergency along their borders.

A massive evacuation began to prevent casualties from the monster tsunami.

Thousands of powerful adventurers were summoned, along with hundreds of thousands of soldiers and knights.

All because of one small experiment, the kingdoms around the Thousand Monster Forest plunged into chaos.

What would have happened if Krai had used his full power in that experiment? The world might have ended.

Shizuku, who was searching for a dragon to prepare food for Krai, was startled when she saw the explosion reaching the sky.

“It seems Master is testing his new power. Judging from that explosion, Master wasn’t serious. Thank goodness he can hold back. If he didn’t, I would’ve needed to restore an entire continent.”

With a sweet smile on her beautiful face, Shizuku headed back while dragging the corpse of an earth dragon.

For reference, an earth dragon was an S-rank monster, requiring hundreds of A-rank adventurers to defeat.

But the earth dragon Shizuku dragged looked like it had died from a single blow to the head.

Even though its head was its hardest part, she still shattered it easily.

    "My beloved feels uncomfortable, so stop pestering her."Krai stepped forward, his silhouette shielding Evelyn from the unwanted attention. Sum Ho’s expression soured instantly, his gaze sweeping over Krai with icy indifference."What did you just say? 'Beloved'?" Sum Ho’s voice was laced with a thick, mocking sneer.Beside them, Agnes’s frame trembled with suppressed rage. She was itching to give Sum Ho a piece of her mind, but Krai’s silent gesture held her back. She immediately pouted, though her sharp, predatory gaze remained locked onto Sum Ho like a hawk watching its prey."As I said, my lover is uneasy. Move aside before you do something you’ll regret," Krai stated. His tone was flat—cold, distant, and utterly devoid of warmth.Sum Ho burst into a derisive laugh."How bold! Do you even realize who you’re talking to!?"With a dismissive flick of Sum Ho’s wrist, seven elite knights appeared out of thin air, encircling Krai.Krai let out a weary sigh, muttering under his breath, "
