Slave Dungeons"Aaaagghh!"The little dhampyr woke up, screaming with tears flowing from her eyes. The collar around her neck began to glow brightly with a weird marking on it, and it hurt the girl a lot. Her black hair was constantly shifting between silver and black and claws begun to show themselves as her skin kept switching from pale white to grey then back. Her body enlarged and her eyes became beady. Her mouth was a big as a head and filled with fangs, with a long tongue sticking out. She was now a monster going on a rampage, trying to break free from her binds."Stop it! You only hurt yourself."A voice said, but the monster didn't even pay it any attention. It simply worked viciously on freeing itself of its bind. The large dark figure that screamed was chained up in a different cellar. The figure's sharp golden eyes glowed dimly in the dark.She could only scream as the monster kept on clawing at the collar, slowly killing itself."Stop it, damn it! Please! Do not do it!"Th
"Uh-uh… So you killed one of these 'Sub-Circle' members and took over as one of them, basically infiltrating the enemy and finding out more information on them, then coming to find me?" I asked Kawaii as I took a bite of the crackers placed in front of me. I had managed to get her off of me and she ordered for some snacks. "Yeeewwwwssss!!! Kawaii sooo hawwwppy! Kawaii fooouund mawwstewwwr!" "Wait… how did you find me again? Also why are you speaking like that?" "Kawaii shwould stawwp?" "Yes please." "Okkie!" She said then cleared her new throat. "There is a certain screen in front of me that showed me where you were." Her speech was fluent. That [Assimilation] skill was really impressive, wasn't it? "So you can see the system as well?" "Hmhm." She nodded proudly 'Interesting… and Yokino and others still can't see the screen? Is there some form of qualification?' [Servant Yokino does not have the required amount of Loyalty Points to access the system] '[Loyalty Points]? W
Red fell on the floor after a gruesome training session in her training room. Her panting body kept going up and down as sweat danced about her muscle-toned body. She then looked at the man standing next to her. He wore a dark robe and had a black mask over his face."What do you want, Grimm?"Grimm sat next to her and let out a bored yawn."Oh nothing. I just came to tell you the plan.""For the monster?"The man stretched out his hand let a gentle chilling breeze fly over his friend. She closed her eyes and smiled contently at this action."Let em rip."He took out a [Projection Stone] and holographic figures formed. Maude opened her eyes to look at what was being shown. At first, she was confused, but then noticed how easily the adventurers had been beaten by two women. What shocked her most was the woman who used giant spider legs to fight. She scrolled through her memories quickly and was suddenly reminded of Arachnes. Although that race didn't look like that, the woman's legs lo
Later that day, in the cellars.The cellar doors creaked as they were slowly opened.A man in a white lab coat holding a handbag came through the door. With dirty blonde hair and coffee brown eyes, a face that made you just want to pity him and an air that made you want to hate him even more, he was known amongst the slaves as 'That Dumb Doctor who Works for Lady Violet.' Even if he was amongst the "Sub-Circle" he wasn't treated like an authority figure, due to his lack of achievements.He looked to the far end of the room, where he saw sharp golden eyes glaring at him. Then he looked at the being in front of him. A little girl with her fingers bleeding and her skin deathly pale. He sat her up then lightly slapped her cheeks to confirm whether she was alive.The girl's eyes opened slowly. She looked around her, silently grunting at the pain she now felt. The man looked at her teeth. White fangs were growing nicely and her cheek bones looked healthy. He looked at her eyes, and nothing
Day 30So, I assumed that I had managed to escape the guys claiming to be a hero party. However, I had to give it to them. They were a whole new breed of persistent, even managing to track us down to the mansion."Tori, how old are you?"Marcus decided that that would be his first question for me.BAM!He received a dangerous knock to the head from Mira. She even bowed her head to apologise for his foolishness like she were his caretaker."Sorry, once again excuse him. Stupid and all.""Hinotori-sama, these humans are weird."Nukeme whispered into my ear. I let out a tired sigh.'How did you guys find me?'I asked them."Answer my question first, then we answer yours!"'And that is?'"How old are you?"He asked again. Right now he was becoming quite insufferable, but since I had nothing other than time on my hands, I think I could go at least humour them for now.'How old do you think I am?'"I don't know… thirteen? Twelve? Ten?"'Interesting.'"So you are twelve?"'Do I really look s
We had to pay 1 gold coin each to even participate in the auction. Several soldiers of D and C rank were constantly patrolling the area or standing guard. The servants were moving about quickly and not being a bother to anyone. I even noticed that some statues and portraits had some weird sort of magic tool in them. According to the agent, it allowed the security to know if there was anything weird by sensing any change in mana, aura or heat of the participants. That was simply how high tier this thing was. I started to feel out of my depth here, but I calmed down. "That's strange… shouldn't there be a lot of people attending the auction?"I asked and Nukeme shrugged. "There have to be people who can actually buy the things going for the auction in the first place."Ignis said nonchalantly and walked over to the big man in a black suit wearing a mask. He handed over 4 gold coins and the man accepted the money with a gleeful expression, before giving Ignis two golden tickets.'W
Larm Forest, Wolf King's Cave"B-Boss… where are you going?"A wolf asked Shiroi as she took big heavy steps towards the portal in the center of the cave."What sort of question is that? The leader summons me. I must heed to her call."The black wolf looked at his sister from the corner of his eye. Before, those two were giants amongst the other wolves, but now, he couldn't even compare to her in terms of size. It was a surprising development he hadn't expected."If there wasn't a portal, were you going to run all the way to the city?""If it was necessary, I would have. And I am certain that if it is me, as I am now, it wouldn't take even half a day to do so. However…""Where does that lead to?""Wherever the leader is at the moment.""Si-"She glared at her younger brother, her violet eyes faintly glowing."Enough questions. I'm leaving."The wolf jumped through the portal and it closed up behind her. The black wolf sat up and looked at the spot where his sister once laid.'Maybe I'
Above Hellish Bite, Keimen City As I looked over the city, my mind was going through several things. Before I realized that since Yokino’s plan had come apart, there was no need for subtleties anymore. I would just go in there and take back Ulva. But to do that, I’d need to get help from the monsters in Larm, which they would need preparation for. [Hinotori: Gorm, Reiman, Ichi and the others. I need you to get the forces ready for an attack. I’ll teleport you guys here when you are done.] I sent this message to them and so it wouldn’t be long now till they saw and got off their butts. But before then, I would need to start something to minimize casualties on my side since I wasn’t really sure about this. "[Shadow Being Summoning]." A black substance dropped from my leg and formed a black ball beneath me. I found that to be odd since that wasn’t how the first time went. > ‘What?’ DING! [The Goddess of Endless Darkness
