"I hope she is alright."The sprite said in a worried tone."What are you worried for? You sensed her aura last night, right? She is holding back a lot. The only problem is we hope she doesn't accidentally anger the spider king like he did the wolf king.""Ah, yes. You are right.""Let us hurry up."Both of them moved quickly towards the bee hive, but something had been bothering ever since the beginning of the trip. Even now as the rat man looked at the dryad's running figure, it felt quite odd."Hey you.""Hmm?""I thought you said you don't need food to survive?""Huh? What could you possibl-"Both of them stopped running, and a gentle wind blew over."Oh please. I've never heard of a sprite that craves meat before. They just eat fruits if they get hungry, yet you lied that you absorb mana from Sol.""That is um-… is this really important now? If Hinotori isn't able to convince the spider king, we will be in a lot of trouble later on, you know?"She was looking for ways to escape h
Day 19Once we discussed matters with the Spider king, we decided to head back today, but Diane ordered us to stay here for a bit. She sent me a secret message that she was waiting for something to happen and I understood her perfectly and was impressed with her quick thinking.So today was spent testing out my skills. There was a very interesting development today, for my skill [White Viper Scales] became [King Viper Scales]. Now they weren't white anymore. They had a silvery allure to them and were way stronger than before. Coupled with my [Slime Body] I could now absorb a high amount of shock before taking any damage.The spider king came to bother my process. I wanted to sack her, but I couldn't be rude to someone helping me out. I decided to plant some spawns. I planted a lot. It was practically a garden and I was expecting about fifty of them to come out. Even the little guys would be helpful as cannon fodder. No more getting attached to twigs.It hurt a bit, but I would simply
Day 20I was in trouble. Why am I saying this out of the blue? For two reasons actually.Well, you see, we ended up spending two days over at the bee hive since the dryad said Diane asked us not to come back until she called for us. Something about the expected betrayal. She was probably talking about the old goat... erh satyr.So in the past two days have been spent with me eating fruits, because the spider king could not tolerate me eating her "children" or so I wanted. I mean, I just got an out of nowhere power-nerfing for no reason known to me.Apart from that, my day was going surprisingly well, if you took out the fact that I was supposed to be preparing for combat against a tyrant and I had been weakened. Emphasizing on the WEAKENED! I had decided to go exploring in the spider king's territory and familiarize myself with the place. At least know my burial grounds well. Maybe I would be able to haunt this place as a poltergeist.[System master ##### has implemented punishment: N
'Ulva?'She responded with a nod.'Ok, Ulva. I'm going to have to ask you some questions. Can you answer me?'Once again, she slowly nodded.'Ok, good. First of all, do you know where you are?'She shook her head'Ok, don't freak out, but you're in Larm right now.'The girl slowly looked around the cave, then she let out a sigh. It was like she was relieved. Honestly I expected her to be filled with a sense of dread or something close. Wait… Was she happy that she was in Larm? Didn't she realize that this was a no-human zone?'Wait, you're not scared?'She didn't respond.'You do realize that this is Larm, right? You know, the forest with dangerous monsters that could chop of your head in one bite or rip out your guts, poison you, shred you to pieces and- Ou!'"Not helping!"The spider king rammed into me and I fell. When I looked at the girl she was a bit shaken. Probably by what I said.'Hehe, my bad. Sorry about that.'"Moving on, why are you here, little girl?"The spider king ask
Day 18'We have an epic battle coming up with an enemy that could most likely squash us all like the insignificant bugs we are before its eyes, however, I don't think any of us here are planning on dying anytime soon. So I am going to have divide you all into groups just so we don't die. Leader of the rat men, you will be leading your race to set up ambushes and traps for the enemy forces. You also will be sharing information on what happens on the battlefield so we can keep track. Gorm, you and the goblins are going to have to engage in a frontal assault. Next, Sunalla, I believe you said you and your water nymphs are capable of performing water magic for healing? I'll need you guys to leave your comfort zones and move on land to support the goblin forces. I believe the Ogre Tyrant may bring a king or two with him, but we only have one king on our side and she will be coming with her forces, so the goblins will not be alone, however they will come on the actual day of warfare, so the
Day 20 I woke up this morning and like last time, Ulva had left me some horned rabbit. Day 3 of preparations, I once again headed over to the rat men tunnels. When I got there, I was surprised to see that some of the nymphs were there. Apparently, they were still digging the tunnels to the medic stations, however, the nymphs had already moved in with some herbs from their rivers. These herbs contained medicinal properties. Then I had a thought I hadn't had before. If I could get monsters abilities when I eat them, why not the same for plants? But I didn't have [Evolver] to test that out, so I guess that would have to wait for after. I quickly set out for the goblins. When I got there, the goblins and rat men were training as planned, however they were not alone this time. I spotted countless insects moving around with them. When I flew down, Gorm came up to me and said. "Hinotori-sama! You didn't tell me that the spider king's forces were going to be training with us. You are jus
The EastTroll King's CaveThe cave was filled with loud cheerful roaring. Trolls were stomping the ground and beating their chests in uniform. They had formed a circle around two trolls that were facing each other. One was a troll with red hot skin and the other had the average dull grey skin. At the moment they were performing a ritual that their race usually did the night before any conflict. It was to determine the ranks the trolls were given for the conflict. The stronger the troll, the higher their ranking. The leader of the trolls was not exempted from this rule.The grey skinned troll delivered a heavy punch to the red skinned troll's face. That punch would have been able to snap a tree in two, however it barely managed to faze that troll.The troll king cracked its right fist and grinned at his second-in-command. He raised his arm and flexed all his muscles. Veins snaked out, showing just how serious his punch was."As always…. Ya punch like a… GOBLIN!!!"He brought down his
The West, Village of OooThe Leaders of all the goblin villages in the West had gathered in front of the village. Their members were all outside with them talking and partying like fools at a party. One wouldn't be able to tell that they were going to face a serious battle the next day.Gorm took a gulp of his slime and looked up at the other leaders. A hob-goblin twice his size kept poking his cheek. This hob-goblin possessed blond-hair and wore a loin-cloth around his chest with a red tattoo over his left arm crossing to his chest. It was believed that those were the signs of a [Divinity] blessing him, but since he hadn't received a name, they couldn't confirm that."Oi, Gorm! Let's duel!""No.""Come on, come on! It'll be fun!""No.""Brother! We worked our butts off training these guys into what they are now! A little bit of fun wouldn't hurt now, would it? At least a duel for the last!""Don't say such pessimistic things.""P… pessimisk… wha-?""It means don't say bad things."Th
