Arpious of the Planes

Chapter 47 Bandits (2)



I activate [Forbidden Magic: Zeus's Nimbus] and a tiny lightning cloud appears in the center of my palm. You can hear the crackling of lighting coming from inside of it.

Tossing it above the crowd of bandits, it slowly grows covering the roof. Everybody looks up in horror as they see lightning crash into them, frying them from the inside out. Everybody ran around in a panic as I got tons of notifications from all the kills.

Soon I withdrew [Forbidden Magic: Zeus's Nimbus] since it used up a lot of my mana. There were scorch marks everywhere with some bandits surviving by hiding under the tables. Most of the bandits that survived were the sluts that sucked up to the bandits.

Jumping down from my perch, I activated [Phoenixes Dominating Presence] which was enough to knock the wind out of most bandits. Using [Shadow Magic] I sliced up all of the tables the bandits were hiding under, exposing their shivering bodies.

"Why didn't you invite me to the party?" I say sarcastically while a sadistic grin crept onto my face.

My grin made the bandits shiver, even more, some tried to commit suicide which I blocked, and then killed them myself so I don't lose XP.

A couple of the women muttered amongst themselves before walking up to me and taking off their clothes.

"M-my queen, I know that you like women, i-if you let us live you can use me as much as you want," One of the female fire harpies said while all of them started to press their bodies against me trying to seduce me.

"Fucking sluts," I mutter before killing them with [Forbidden Magic: Medusa].

I activate [Boost] and [Fire of Deaths Sword: Raiu]. One big swing in a circular motion was enough to split the rest of the bandits in half.

haaaaa

"Seems like I didn't have to use the tattoos,"

[Calculating the excessive amount of XP]

[63010 XP gained in total]

[You leveled up (x9)]

[Gained the following title]

[Incomplete Monster (Humanoid and Intelligent Monsters Killed (42/50)]

Gathering all the corpses, intact or in pieces I pile them in the center of the room. I take a piece from every corpse and devour half of them before getting extremely full. Taking a breather I continued to shove food down my throat even though I felt like I could explode any second.

[Gained the following skills]

[Gluttons Stomach]

[Pickpocket]

[Body Enhancement]

[Seduction]

[Strong Libido]

[Contortion]

[Wind Control]

...

[Gluttons Stomach]

​ [Allows you to eat up to 3x your stomach capacity.]

I'm getting way too many skills…

As soon as I got the skill the nauseous feeling, I had instantly disappeared and I even started to feel hungry again.

I soon devoured the rest of the body parts in front of me before noticing how heartless I have become.

Even though they were screaming and blood was shedding I didn't even flinch a second. Hesitation… 0. Looks like that title was pretty accurate considering I just massacred everybody here even when they were pleading for their lives… doesn't matter though… they were scum.

Distracting myself from what I've become I soon thought of what I would do if I encountered another human… reminiscing of a quote I heard in my past life.

"When a monster refuses to no longer be a monster… are they still a monster? They can act human, laugh, smile, cheer but is what they've done wiped from existence…? No… in the end they are still a monster…" I mutter to myself.

...

I was woken up from my deep thought as the sun shone through the open windows of the wooden house. Activating [Amaterasu] I burned all four of the houses down including the dead bandits.

tsk

"I can't call myself human now... I didn't realize how much I've changed from when I was back on earth. Even back then I would've hesitated at ending somebodies life, but now I can do it in a split second and even eat them,"

Shaking away the distracting thoughts, I walked away still slightly shaken from the hard truth. Snapping my fingers, the black flames suddenly dispersed into thin air. It was so fast that nobody could have seen it unless they were right next to me.

As I looked in the direction of the sun, I could see it poking out the horizon encompassing my kingdom in a golden glow. Flying above to get a better view I admire my kingdom and see some citizens leaving for work.

Flying back to my castle I had a few questions I wanted to ask. The first would be the location of the phoenix corpse and the second, would be where the blood crawler corpses are.

"Oh, Sophia! I have some questions," I called out since she was the first maid I saw.

Geez… she must have been fighting monsters non-stop.

"I-I'll gladly answer anything," she stutters, not expecting me to be up this early.

"So first of all… where is the phoenix corpse, or do you know anything about a phoenix corpse?"

"Ah, I am aware of the phoenix corpse that master killed. We stored it in an empty room since we noticed it didn't rot at all. Would you like me to take you there?" Sophia replies.

"That would be nice," I say while following Sophia down the hallway.

The room where it was stored was on the other side of the castle so it took us about 10 minutes to find the room. Opening the door I see the phoenix corpse still intact and curled up on its side.

I wanted to make clothing out of it so I should bring some of its feathers to Aimi. It should be a nice challenge for her since she's a master with every type of basic material.

I activated [Boost] and used all my strength once again to pluck around 20 feathers. Giving them to Sophia I ordered her to bring them to Aimi once I asked her one more question.

"Where are the blood crawler corpses?"

"Sadly we burned them all. Their stench was terrible and no matter how Aito prepared it, it still tasted horrible," Sophia responds.

"Ok… you're dismissed," I say waving my hand, gesturing for her to leave.

I walked back to my bedroom to see if my wives were awake but they weren't so I decided to check on Aiko who was working on my castle.

Walking to the very top floor I saw a massive room made completely out of obsidian. There were about 5000 coins of every rank stacked towards the back of the room.

"Yo, how are you doing,"

"My queen, welcome. Is there anything you need," Akio replies?

"No, just checking up on the progress of my castle. Is it almost done?"

"Yes, this should be the last room. Also, we are trying to produce the number of coins you asked for, as fast as we can it's just we also have to circulate money throughout your kingdom," Akio says.

"It's alright, you can just take your time since I probably won't use the coins anytime soon. Oh yeah, can I bring the phoenix corpse here?" I reply.

"Of course, we will make something to keep it in. You don't have to bother bringing it up, allow us to do it," Akio says, then continues to order around the construction workers.

Before leaving, I decided to nab some obsidian coins and stuff them in one of the pockets on the underside of my dress.

Finally leaving the room I checked on my wives once more and saw that they still weren't awake, so I decided to wake them up myself. Shaking them one by one, they slowly woke up.

"Good morning…" Kumo says, rubbing her eyes.

Homura and Aika didn't say anything but just kissed me on the cheek.

We took a bath together even though I already took one. They all checked out my new tattoos and wings.

I also asked Homura what the [Ring of Wisps: 1] does which she replied with,

"Oh, I'll just show you,"

Activating the body modification a halo made of blue fire flickered on her back. It was half the size of her body and it even started to boil the water around it, forcing Homura to turn off the body modification.

"I feel pretty useless…" Aika says out of nowhere.

"Why would you say that?" I ask.

"Well… you three are the strongest in the kingdom and as Arpious's wife I should be strong as well… but I'm not," Aika says looking down and cupping the water with her hands.

"You don't have to be strong… how about we go on a date, just you and me. Also, don't worry I'll go on one with you guys as well, but let Aika go first okay," I say turning to Kumo and Homura.

"Sure I don't mind," Kumo says.

"As long as I get to be with you," Homura says.
