[Day 174]

Last night was fairly enjoyable, after making the Yokai King, Ashura, my pawn, he organized a nice feast for all of us. Afterward, I took his royal room for myself and the rest of my wives, where we had fun for several hours through the night.

​​

The Yokai King had to go to another room somewhere while being consoled by his countless concubines. I think I destroyed his pride a lot yesterday, but that is also what makes a good pawn as well.

Unless they are my loyal servants, like Truhan or Celica, pride shouldn't be too dominant in them if I'm aiming for them to be loyal to me. I could have brainwashed him with my Slime Clones parasites, but I choose not to, as I was originally going to eat him, and afterward, I felt like making him constantly fearful about me instead of being a fanatic was a nice punishment for trying to touch me.

This morning I was woken up by seven beautiful Yokai women dressed in Japanese attires that seemed to be a combination between a maid and a kimono dress. They greeted us and brought yet another feast to our bed. The Yokai King was at the back, obediently greeting me.

"Good morning, Master Kireina. I have brought you delicious food to start the day"

"Well done, Ashura. You're showing your worth as a pawn, eh? Fufu"

Over my mischievous smile and playful chuckle, Ashura seemed to be both fearful and charmed by my morning beauty. My shoulders were visible as the Kimono I was wearing was moved to the sides, and my large breast was also almost nude due to this, only barely hiding the nipples.

"Oh? What are you looking at, Ashura? Do you see something you like? Do you feel daring enough to try and touch me again? Fufu"

"Agh! N-No, not at all, Empress Kireina! I apologize…"

It seems that although his eyes are perverted, he knows very well what will happen to him if he tries anything funny. I was thinking on a variety of punishments, from transferring his soul to a Yuki-Onna and be impregnated for the whole week to Synthesizing his body with the countless beast and transform him into a mutant Chimera. But he was behaving well, so I allowed him to keep his concubines.

After the plentiful feast, where my children joined in as well, from their private rooms where they were sleeping, I looted a little bit of the poor treasury of this Village, there wasn't anything noteworthy outside of dropped items from Dungeon Monsters, still, I took it all greedily.

I released around a hundred very small Slime Clones and Scarlet Phantom Fox Clones through the entire Village to spy over the whole village and every movement from the King, I will let him here for now as he needs to be protecting the village. Without his strength and magic, the village would be ravaged by the monsters and destroyed in a few days. I also left various Familiars and vegetables as provisions, enough to feed a whole nation for a year. The concubines in charge of cooking were dazed by the new ingredients.

Before proceeding through the dungeon, I called my servants back in the Kingdom to see how things were going. My Summon Clones have been steadily producing food and Undead Soldiers, to the point that they had to move the Undead Soldiers and Familiars to the forest, and the forest suddenly became filled with deadly monsters.

Although the Undead is rather passive and obedient, the Familiars have gone through a rampage around the forest, and Guubo and the two Chimera Guardians had to get involved, beating the thousands of Familiars and eating them. It wasn't really a problem as it was resolved very quickly, but the forest is filling itself with crazed Familiar beast once again.

Due to this, the Rin Sisters saw the value on this and began to create Hunting and Extermination missions through the Grand Forest, rewarding Knights, Adventurers, and other people brave enough to go hunt these powerful monsters. Thanks to this, the people in the Kingdom have a nice way to train with their life in danger instead of the automatized training that soldiers usually have, and the Bloody Sacrifice Dungeon was getting boring for some people too.

The Kingdom profit from this as the Familiars are killed and butchered, ready to be given to the people as food, while the people as well benefit from this as they gain money from the extermination missions. Interestingly enough, the summoned Familiars are diversifying themselves in the wild areas of the Grand Forest due to the high amount of natural Mana in the environment, multiplying incredibly fast, maintaining this new cycle that I never predicted.

As my Summoning Clones summon more and more without stopping or feeling tired, this cycle never ends and it becomes an endless profit from both sides. Some Undead monsters like Skeleton Soldiers that escaped to the wild forest are also evolving by themselves and then coming back already stronger than before when called by the Summoning Clones.

Although my Lesser Slime Clones in charge of fusing the skeletons are working hard, they are limited still and cannot multiply by themselves, and because the monsters keep being summoned constantly, things like these were bound to happen. My strongest servants keep most of the Kingdom safe, and the monsters don't really dare to enter any occupied area as they are being guarded by special Undead, Slimes, and Giant Skeleton Guardians, alongside newly constructed Bone Towers packed with deadly Magic Cannons.

This "Wild Area" inside of the Kingdom is actually rather beneficial, and although I could make some of my Summoning Clones stop working so things would get calmer, the amount of work that everyone is having due to this is great for the Kingdom, which was being too relaxed lately as everything is handled to everyone, most of the population was lazing around, while only the royal soldiers and some adventurers were working hard every day. Now there is an influx of new adventurers and voluntary soldiers have appeared, seeking the rewards in the missions.

Most of the Grand Forest animals and monsters were already getting extinct due to overhunting from my Kingdom, and because Familiar meat was so easily available in shops and given for free to most of the population, everyone ended up becoming sedentary…

Thoughts like "If we get a nice house and some food every day, what's the point on working so hard?" were common, but after the Familiars and Undead rampaging around the Wild Area and the guild releasing thousands of new missions with juicy rewards, everyone was now eager to gain themselves some easy money or even become rich on my Kingdom standards. Others were being obsessed with becoming stronger as well.

There was also the overpopulation problem because I wanted so many people for the upcoming wars, the Kingdom also suffered from overpopulation, and thanks to the expeditions to kill dangerous monsters like Familiars, especially beasts like Giant Hydras, Thunderstorm Phoenixes and so on, some adventurers dying was becoming a common thing, slowly normalizing my population.

Also, thanks to the Undead and Familiars, the small communities of intelligent beings in the forest ended up joining in the Kingdom forcefully, like the Dryads. Even the Dryad Empress ended up leaving her precious sacred forest in a hurry while being chased by a pack of Draconic Lions.

Now, aside from the classic Dungeon quest, there are hunting quests, butchering quests, etc. The kingdom was blossoming with work to do, and everyone was looking forward to getting stronger, even if they were partially risking their lives. Well, there were still some sedentary families that even after knowing that they could get rich and grow stronger quickly decided to just live on their houses with the daily Familiar meat and vegetables.

However, the Rin Sisters are making countless propagandas to incentive the people to work hard, and it's working rather well, this is probably knowledge from Earth that they are using in this situation, as the Rin Sisters are my split minds at the end of the day. They have been also helping with the creation of new magic technology based on earth, managing to create something similar to radios, automatic electric fans for the heat of summer, and so on.

The crafters and alchemists have been working together, combining magic technology with golem technology and alongside the support of my useful Slime Clones, they have managed to create several items of great value, even a freezer was recently created to maintain the food inside and stop it from deteriorating quickly. Although magic could be used for this, without several high-level mages, it was highly impractical, there may be strong mages on my kingdom, but 99% of them were completely battle oriented. Other things that could be used are Item Box, but Item Boxes are actually rare.

Them being common between my family may seem because of my blessing from the System Master, some of my closest servants who have reached high realms of evolution also possess large Item Box, however, the common citizen and even strong soldiers, knight or adventurers barely have Item Boxes of 5 to 10 slots, barely able to fit some things inside, without the ability to stack items and neither store massive quantities of things.

Although the Item Box of my family and mine could be used as a storage to the entire Kingdom, I cant just transport the items to them as I don't possess Space Magic, so it's better for them to store things in storages underground and the creation of freezers is indeed an easier way to maintain food without having to call mages that can control temperatures to help out all the time.

Another thing to note is that any of my Clones made with my flesh don't have Item Box neither they can use my own, each time I make them go look for loot in the dungeon, they have to carry them to me personally. Perhaps if those Monkey Prodigies born some months ago that had Time magic talent and other interesting magic talents helped out, we could do leaps in technological advancements.

However, they are still learning, and it seems that Dream, Time and Space Magic are incredibly hard to learn and understand, even talented mages born with their affinities take months and years to figure out functional spells that aren't purely offensive.

I think that we aren't that far from making actual TV and even Computers. This technological advancement is slowly spreading through the Kingdom, and the Rin Sisters are planning on creating a big "technological boom" by inserting all of these valuable items to the market while also renovating the city and streets, to more modern looking ones in earth. However, these projects are going to take a lot of time, and we are barely scratching the surface for now.

Magic is truly wonderful, as it can replace a lot of things that would be too complicated to make with the rustic technology from the earth, and by applying this knowledge, the Rin Sisters are making incredible leaps towards a brighter future for the Dark Moon Kingdom. The Rin Sisters are my split minds, so they are technically me, because of this, I feel proud of my work, even though the present me that is talking right now hasn't done anything of that. It's a strange feeling.

Moving to more important matters, my seven little chicks are still inside of their eggs, and refuse to come out, although Nephiana was worried at first, she understood that the chicks were fine inside and that in fact, they were getting stronger while preparing to hatch. Due to this, she has been patient for now, awaiting the eggs to hatch while she gives them her warmness and enhances their essences with her Wind Aura. Smilkas, Ocypete, and Roneth visit her daily, bringing her delicious new snacks and gifts.

Nephiana had already made good friends with Roneth as both of them came from the same slave group, had similar Attributes and personalities, Roneth wanted to have her vengeance against the Hero of Raging Winds, but was too weak to participate in the war, so she was thankful of Nephiana for killing the bastard. Ocypete and Smilkas are her most recent friends, Ocypete had frown more confident and less shy and was introduced to the Wind Valkyries and Harpy group by Nephiana and Viento after all. Smilkas is always with Ocypete, so she became friends with Nephiana very quickly due to her cheerful and friendly personality.

Oh, and about the groups, I sent to the other Dungeons, they're doing pretty fine, growing stronger and having their own adventures. They better get stronger fast, as they are my strongest soldiers and servants, and their strength increasing is crucial for the Kingdom.

As I finished assessing the things on my mind, Ailine and Vudia were hugging my hips while rubbing their adorable little faces on my dress.

"Mommy, you smell so good, like flowers!" (Ailine)

"I love mommy's scent! It's very sweet, unlike mother (Brontes) who has a salty scent, but both are nice!" (Vudia)

"H-Hm?! Two little princesses are smelling their mother, what is this?"

My fairy body is constantly releasing a sweet and alluring perfume that its hard to mask, my children and wives in specific are very sensitive with it and feel naturally attracted with it, smelling it for longer periods of time can make them feel relaxed, releasing tensions and clearing the mind.

Vudia and Ailine, because they are always stuck with me, had developed a small addiction to this scent, and are now shamelessly rubbing their noses on my dress, to get all of this sweet fragrance.

"Hm, should I make perfume and sell it? It could be a nice product in the Kingdom, we could even export it to other places as well, like the Azuma Empire…"

"That would be nice! So, I can always smell like mommy!" (Ailine)

"Ooh! I want one too, so mother (Brontes) can smell sweet too!" (Brontes)

"Vudia, don't be so rude with your mother Brontes, her salty smell is due to her sweating and the mineral properties of her skin and muscles. I particularly like it a lot, it's one of her charming features"

"Ooh! I see! It's just that I like sweets more than salty food" (Vudia)

"Ohh? That is not a fair excuse! Time to punish you with a thousand tickles!"

I quickly caught my precious little Vudia with my arms as I began to tickle her small belly, neck, and arms, she immediately burst in playful and innocent laughter, Ailine was also not spared.

After everything was done and ready, we said our goodbyes to the grateful Yokai, who had high spirits due to the new Familiar meat and vegetables.

Reaching floor 93, we found new types of wild Yokai and some evolved forms of the past monsters. Alongside this, small skirmishes and wars between different species of Ghost and Yokai were very common as well.
