The chirping of birds accompanied us as we explored the Forest of a Thousand Monsters.
“Strange, why are there no monsters in the Forest of a Thousand Monsters?” “Is Master confused because of that?” Shizuku looked at me with an odd expression. “Huh? What is it?” I asked hesitantly. “Isn’t it obvious why there are no monsters on the path we’re taking?” “…Ah, I see. They’re afraid to come near because you’re here.” Shizuku nodded gently. “Not just because of me, but because of Master as well. You could say the main reason they don’t appear is because they’re afraid of Master,” Shizuku explained. “What do you mean?” I asked, tilting my head. Shizuku pointed directly at my face. “Master’s aura is overflowing like a bucket submerged in the ocean. Think of the bucket as the container for Master’s aura, while the entire ocean is Master’s true aura.” “I see. Then what about you? I’m sure you have an aura similar to mine.” Shizuku smiled proudly. “My aura was previously restrained by the prison created by that god, but after becoming Master’s servant, I gained the ability to suppress my aura by up to 99.99%.” I widened my eyes, staring at Shizuku with an astonished expression. “This is the first time I’ve heard of that.” Shizuku gave a mischievous smile and stuck out her small pink tongue. “Master never asked.” “…Forget it. So what should I do now? There’s no way I can travel like this.” Shizuku pondered for a moment, then looked at me seriously. “I have an idea.” “Tell me.” “Master gains 100% of the abilities of any creature you tame. In that case, the fastest way to obtain the ability to suppress aura is to tame a creature that already possesses that ability.” “That makes sense, but where can we find a creature with such an ability?” Shizuku smiled mysteriously. “I know someone. Master won’t be disappointed after conquering her—she’s extremely beautiful.” Shizuku grinned charmingly. Her beautiful eyes shone like the finest gemstones in the world. “Who are you talking about?” Shizuku stepped closer, touched my neck, and whispered softly into my ear. “Her name is Agnes. Master may have heard of her as the progenitor of the seductive demon women—the Queen of Succubi.” ….. The Queen of Succubi—a myth that has existed since ancient times. According to legend, the Queen of Succubi was the most beautiful woman of all eras. It was said that her beauty surpassed even the Goddess of Beauty, causing the gods themselves to fight over her heart. Yet until the end of the tale, the Queen of Succubi was said to have never formed a relationship with any man, including gods. Some rumors claimed that the Queen of Succubi had already died, while others insisted that she was still alive to this day. “So the Queen of Succubi is still alive?” Shizuku nodded confidently. “If that’s true, why has the Queen of Succubi never appeared?” Shizuku shrugged. “I don’t know. Maybe she’s still frustrated because her love was once rejected by the previous generation’s Master of Chaos.” “Really? How do you know that?” “I was close friends with the Queen of Succubi before I was sealed by that god.” “I see.” Shizuku gazed at me with her beautiful eyes. “So what do you think? Does Master want to try conquering her?” Honestly, I wanted to try, but my intuition warned me that doing so would lead to serious trouble. “What do you think?” Shizuku thought for a moment, then looked at me with a gentle smile on her beautiful face. “I think it would be better to tame her.” “Why?” “Master needs more power to bear the title of Master of Chaos.” “I’m not sure. I already feel satisfied with my current strength.” Shizuku stepped forward again and gently embraced me with warmth and affection. “I think Master should know this. The Masters of Chaos in ancient times always fought against a mysterious and incredibly powerful entity. I learned this from the god who sealed me—he said it is the destiny of a Master of Chaos to confront that mysterious entity.” My heart tightened as I heard Shizuku’s words. “Shizuku, are you serious?” “Master can tell that I’m not joking.” “…” “I don’t know much about that mysterious entity either, but if it’s the Queen of Succubi, she would definitely know something.” “Alright, let’s tame the Queen of Succubi!” Shizuku nodded with a joyful smile on her beautiful face. “Mm!” ….. According to Shizuku, the Queen of Succubi is currently on the eastern continent, which is quite far from here. “It would take months to reach the eastern continent. We need to prepare many things for the journey.” As I pondered this issue, Shizuku was busy tinkering with a magic circle that looked unfamiliar to me. “Shizuku, what are you doing?” Shizuku turned around with a gentle smile on her face. “Master, I’m developing teleportation magic.” “Huh? What did you just say?” “Teleportation magic. Is there something wrong with that?” I fell silent and felt a headache coming on as I looked into Shizuku’s innocent eyes. Shizuku is a dragon king from ancient times, so it’s only natural that her common sense doesn’t align with this era. “Shizuku, do you know that teleportation magic is considered mythical magic whose existence is doubted by all modern mages?” Shizuku nodded at my statement. “That seems to be the case. But teleportation magic is actually easier than people imagine. If it were Master, you could probably create it in no time.” “…Then why don’t you already have it?” Shizuku suddenly blushed. “I used to think teleportation magic was useless to me because I could move extremely fast in my dragon form. But after becoming human, it’s difficult for me to return to my dragon form, so I want to create teleportation magic as the fastest and most efficient means of transportation.” Shizuku’s explanation made sense and sounded reasonable—though, in reality, it was completely unreasonable by modern standards. “I understand. How long will it take to create teleportation magic?” “Considering my proficiency in magic, at most one hour.” Wow. I wasn’t even surprised anymore—my mental energy had already been exhausted just from talking with Shizuku. “Alright, do whatever you want. I’m going to take a walk.” Shizuku nodded happily, looking full of motivation. I left Shizuku behind and excitedly wandered through the Forest of a Thousand Monsters. The Forest of a Thousand Monsters is an extremely dangerous place, but also incredibly beautiful, as nature here has never been touched by human hands. While near the border of the forest, I heard the hysterical screams of several humans, as if they were terrified of something. ‘Should I check it out?’ Doubt arose and took hold of my heart. ‘Why do I feel hesitant? In the past, I would have rushed there without a second thought. Is this because of that man? How ridiculous—has my view of humans really changed just because of that man’s mistake?’ “Help! Someone, please help us!” The desperate scream of a woman became the final spark that burned away all hesitation in my heart. My body shot forward at superhuman speed and appeared at the edge of the Forest of a Thousand Monsters. The first sight before my eyes made them widen in shock. Before me was a massacre—monsters slaughtering helpless villagers. “You damn monsters! Go to hell!” Boom! My body unleashed overwhelming power, distorting space and time around me. In an instant, hundreds of high-level monsters died suddenly, unable to withstand the pressure of my power. … .. . To be continued…Latest Chapter
43 Rescue
“Master, is something the matter?” Agnes asked, her voice tinged with curiosity as she observed Krai’s grim, furrowed expression.“...How many slaves are there in this kingdom?” Krai asked, sidestepping her question.“Eh? If I recall correctly, there are about a thousand—and that’s including those of elven descent.”“A thousand, you say...” A thin smirk played on Krai’s lips, the kind that suggested a scheme was already beginning to take shape.“Master?”“Agnes. Rescue every single one of them and bring them back to the Stromveil Kingdom.”“...Are you certain, Master?” Agnes hesitated, glancing at Krai with a look of uncertainty.“Is there a problem?” Krai asked, meeting her gaze.Agnes nodded slowly.“And what would that be?”Agnes took a deep breath, carefully explaining that some of these slaves weren't just victims of circumstance—many possessed dark, criminal backgrounds.“It doesn’t matter,” Krai countered dismissively. “Everyone makes mistakes. As long as they are willing to ch
42 Divine Light Kingdom
In the Divine Light Kingdom, Krai and Rirui moved through the heart of the city, their eyes scanning the surroundings with sharp vigilance. Both were draped in heavy traveling cloaks, their hoods pulled low to mask their features. Beneath those shadows, no one could guess that a warrior of the elves—a woman of peerless beauty—was walking right among them.Every time they passed the grim displays of humans practicing slavery against the demi-human races, Rirui bit her lower lip so hard it bled."If only their powers weren't sealed," Rirui hissed, her voice dripping with pure vitriol. "The humans who enslave them would already be dead."Suddenly remembering she was in Krai’s presence, she quickly clamped her mouth shut. She looked away, fearful that her outburst might have provoked him."You’re right," Krai said quietly. "It is a hideous sight. They claim to uphold equality through their faith, yet they have long since abandoned their consciences."Rirui fell silent, surprised by his wo
41 Rirui's Changes
"I see. I think I have the gist of it," Shizuku murmured, her eyes tracing Rirui’s every movement with a look of intense curiosity.'How did I even end up in this situation? And who is this stunning woman? Her presence... it’s every bit as overwhelming as Lady Agnes.'"Ahem! This is Shizuku. She’s my personal maid." As if reading the frantic thoughts swirling in Rirui’s head, Krai offered a casual introduction.Rirui froze for a moment, her gaze lingering on Shizuku in a mix of awe and bewilderment.A faint, thin smile played on Shizuku’s lips, yet she was draped in an aura that was both mysterious and impeccably elegant."It is a pleasure to meet you, Rirui.""Likewise... Lady Shizuku."Shizuku’s smile widened with satisfaction. Almost instantly, she picked up on the peculiar thread of connection stretching between Rirui and Krai.'Does this elf have feelings for Master? It seems we’ve found a fitting representative for the elven race here.'Shizuku’s expression shifted into a mischi
40 Haku Village Answer
Rirui returned to face her father, alone."Where are Lord Krai and Lady Agnes?" Huda asked, looking up as his daughter approached."They... they cannot be disturbed right now.""Ah, I see. Then let them be. We must be careful not to incur their anger."Rirui nodded softly, her gaze slightly averted."Father, I’m going to take a bath now. I’ll see you later.""Why so suddenly? You usually bathe in the evening," Huda remarked, staring at Rirui with a look of pure bewilderment.Rirui hurried away without offering an answer. Had anyone been observant enough, they would have noticed the deep, burning crimson staining her cheeks. Unfortunately, Huda saw none of it, leaving him unable to even guess what had just transpired with his daughter.Huda stood up and paced a few meters before pausing. He stared down at a peculiar dampness on the floor, his brow furrowing in hesitation."What is this liquid? I don't recall anyone spilling a drink..."He hesitated for a moment, then absentmindedly wip
39 Rirui's Changes
"Rirui, as the strongest warrior of Haku Village... you understand just how utterly powerless we are against them, don't you?"Rirui stood frozen. Her gaze flickered nervously, stealing a glance toward Krai and Agnes before she looked away."I know, Father," she whispered, her voice barely audible.Huda took a long, heavy breath."If they truly wished for it, they could wipe our village off the map in the blink of an eye. So tell me... why would they go through the trouble of negotiating with us?""That is...""The Master has no taste for coercion. That is the only reason we've chosen the path of dialogue," Agnes interjected, her tone cold and indifferent."He... dislikes forcing others?"Rirui looked up at Krai. In response, Krai offered her a bright, gentle smile—the kind of smile that seemed to radiate pure warmth.Fushuuu—!Rirui’s face turned a violent shade of crimson. She looked down instantly, her heart hammering against her ribs as she succumbed to an overwhelming wave of shy
38 Haku Village
"How dare you fire your arrows at my Master! Such insolence is unforgivable." Agnes’s voice was frigid—flat, detached, and utterly devoid of mercy.Magic surged from Agnes in a violent tide, warping the space around her until it fractured like a jagged spiderweb. The once-fierce elves instantly lost their color. Their bravado evaporated as they collapsed to the ground, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.Four out of the five elves had lost control of their bladders right then and there. The only one spared that humiliation was the female elf standing in the center, though she fared little better."Agnes? Compose yourself.""But Master, they dared to attack you!"Krai offered a relaxed smile, lightly patting Agnes on the shoulder. "Their little stunt didn't even singe a single hair on my head. There’s no need to be so worked up.""...Very well."Agnes withdrew her overwhelming aura, casting a terrifyingly sweet smile at the five elves huddled on the ground."We wish to speak with yo
