Chapter 9
As I wake up I look around and I see the barricade I set up last night I find a naked girl with silver gray hair clinging on to me
She has fur going down her back and a tail right above her butt; on the top of her head she has two wolf ears. She wakes up and looks at me with her red eyes.
"Ghost?" jack
"Yes master" ghost
"Can you put cloths on?" jack
"Why? Don’t you like it?" ghost
"Of course I like it, I just want to keep this view all to myself" jack
I gesture over to Joe, who is still sleeping. As ghost stands up I can see that she is definitely....well endowed. After she gets dressed I look around for Johanna, who should have evolved last night as well. I see her lying down over by the smoldering fire. She looks like she did when we were about 7-8 years old, small and petite with her shoulder length brown hair. Although there are some definite differences, her ears are pointy like elves, and her skin is fairer. Compared to that ugly little green monster she was before this is an amazing improvement. When she opens her eyes I see that her eyes are different, they have turned from brown to a kind of light yellow, with no whites in her eyes. Not the sickly kind of yellow, but a yellow color that is full of life and energy.
"Hey jack" Johanna
"So you’re the fastest thing alive huh" jack
"That only includes mortals, but yeah I can even outrun most bullets" Johanna
"Impressive" jack
"Hey sis" ghost
"So you evolved as well" Johanna
Johanna started glaring at ghost, first at her chest, then her ears, then her tail.

"Damn, I really have fallen behind" Johanna
As she was saying that Joe stood up behind us and walked over to us, it was obvious that he cried himself to sleep.
"Who are these two girls?" Joe
"Johanna and ghost" jack
Joe looked a little shocked but quickly recovered.
"Should ‘a known, so you’re saying I have no chance whatsoever with them" Joe
"Nope" Johanna
"None" ghost
"Ouch, that hurt my pride a little. But can't help it, their your pets after all" Joe
I cook some orc and we start eating. After a while the orc that I cooked is all gone and the girls are still asking for more, so I cook some more for them.
After that we go hunting for more orc but we can't find as many as we use too, I think someone has killed their leader. I wonder what will happen when all the leaders are dead. So I ask.
"Maybe we get out?" Johanna
"The next stage of this dungeon" Joe
"I don't care as long as I’m with master" ghost
After a while I start grinding my skills, several of which ran up to superior or master. For the rest of the day we don't do much except grind our skills, hunt orcs, and cook.
I managed to make a wooden practice dummy to practice with, although I had to repair it constantly.
congratulation! You have completed stage 1 of 3! All the species leaders are dead! The next stage will start tomorrow. If you want to survive follow your nose
Skill obtained: keen senses>
Your pet/slave ghost has obtained the skill keen senses
Ghost’s skills beast instincts and keen senses merged to make beast senses
Your pet/slave Johanna has obtained the skill keen senses
Johanna’s skills monster instincts and keen senses merged to make monster senses
I use the new skill we obtained to sniff the air, but the only thing I could smell was the orc we cooked earlier.
"Looks like we're going to have company" jack
End chapter 9
authors note: in case you haven't realized it yet ghost is an albino.
