Caleb watched as the baby demon rats attacked the unconscious demon rat with glee. The sight was so frightening that he found himself relieved that they saw him as their king. Despite their appearance, anyone would be traumatized by the sight of demon rats climbing all over them and tearing into their flesh. Fortunately, his sight was soon blocked by a familiar screen.[Quest][Defeat the Demon Rat][You have successfully defeated the demon rat.][Quest Rewards][You have gained a level and received 1 gold.]Just as he was starting to feel relieved that the quest was completed, he realized he had made a grave mistake. Caleb hadn't picked a new skill wh

The cave was actually quite comfy, in Caleb's opinion, if he ignored how he had flashbacks to what happened the last time he was in the cave. It was only thanks to the presence of the baby demon rats and [Steadfast Mind] that he didn't have a panic attack. He ended up cuddling up against his followers, using them as a bed to sleep on instead of the cold, hard ground.However, once morning came, Caleb knew he had to deal with the sudden changes. His old plan had to be scrapped. That was obvious. What wasn't obvious was what the new plan should be. He had to be careful so there wouldn't be a reenactment of what happened to his army last time. He decided to shelve the matter and focus on the baby demon rats.Caleb corrected himself. They weren't baby demon rats anymore. He watched as they scurried around like they normally did. Of course, it wasn't as cute or discrete compared to when they

The question was how was Caleb supposed to plan world domination. It wasn't like he had any references to it outside of TV and video games. Of course, he couldn't follow what he had seen either since it was always the villains plotting world domination, and all their plans obviously ended in failure. If he tried to copy what they did, he would be just setting himself up for failure.Besides, not all the situations could be used, even if he wanted to. He wasn't a millionaire who could use his wealth to dominate whatever industry he forced his way into. This wasn't an urban setting. Caleb was clearly in a fantasy setting with things stacked against him, even if he did have a system trying to help him every step of the way.Immediately turning to the only one who could help, he asked, "System, do you have any ideas on world domination?"[The user needs to be more specific.]"I mean, can you give me ideas or plans to start?" Caleb asked.Unfortunately, the system is unable to help in this

Caleb stared in disbelief at what he heard. He must have been mistaken. There was no way that they had just suggested they make a scene so they could draw attention to themselves. What was more unbelievable was that he was really considering the idea. It was crazy, but he had hit a wall in trying to recruit more members. If this was the only way, then he might have to go along with it.Staring at the eager looks on their faces, he sighed and said, "I approve of your idea."Immediately, they all perked up, ready to move. Caleb was already beginning to regret it, but he didn't take his words back. It wasn't like they had no clear idea of how to do it. In fact, they had actually presented a clear and well thought out plan. It was actually quite terrifying, and he had to double check to make sure their Intelligence stats were still lower than his.He was still suspicious that the system might not have been so truthful about the stats, but there wasn't anything he could do about that. All

Even though Caleb was still very much creeped out by the skill, he didn't hesitate to abuse it. Since the demon rats wouldn't be missed, he put them to work and had them reveal anything they knew. Unfortunately, it didn't yield any results. Since they were disposable, they didn't really know much and couldn't properly convey it to him because of their speech problems.However, he was able to confirm that they would lead him to the next if he really wanted them to. While he wanted to jump on the idea, he knew better than to go through with it. He didn't know how long the brainwashing would last. What if it suddenly wore off while they were leading them to where the nest was or right as they were in the middle of the nest? Things could get ugly.No, he needed to wait for the brainwashing to wear off before brainwashing them again. Caleb monitored them for a week, but the brainwashing showed no signs of wearing off. In that time, other demons came to investigate, like he had expected. The
