Chapter 145 [Bonus ] 145: Ghoul...
It didn't take too long for them to return, now with a huge amount of supplies and materials for the village to arm itself, still with more than 4 weeks at worst and 5 weeks at best before they would be tested to the limit.
"Zilna, can you send a group of knights out to get some mercenaries if I give you the money? Slaves are fine, make sure they are females, or if needs be, some males are okay too; I will make them something capable of fighting."
She looked at him before thinking and looking back at the small squad she spent the past seven days fighting with, then looked back at Alexander.
"Can you lend me those dark elves, Anna, and the other's here today?"
"I can; then, you want me to take more girls and train them while you are gone?"
"Mmmm, the round trip to the city of Kelvatch is only a few days; how many do you want?"
"How much is the average slave/mercenary cost?"
"At least 5 gold for a female slave, at least 20 gold for a male."
"That's about how much it costs, depending on the type of slave you want. If you are willing to have them trained by me and get them to an acceptable level, I can get you a large group of slave women that will be ready to fight for you in less than a month, as well as some men as well, although not as many as the females."
"Well, do that then, and buy some foodstuffs, raw materials, and things like that from Kelvatch."
She nodded and smiled at him before asking him one more question.
"Do you want mercenaries too?"
"No, if you can get me a large number of slaves this time, we will give them favourable conditions, and I will make them like you, Venri and Katrin so they can never betray the princess but also serve as a strong troop to protect you all."
"What about the men?" She was curious as it was known men were weak, but seeing Alexander and his power, she was convinced he might be able to do something but worried he might do those things they did at night with other males.
"I will make them into strong males, and they will take a wife of the villagers to remain rooted in this village and kingdom, always faithful to the princess and me."
She nodded to him again and thanked him before running off to find Venri and Katrin and told them to follow her and bring the rest of the group, as they would do a small team.
At the same time, while Alexander would go to the princess, Zilna understood Qilana best, and when they entered the city gates, she saw the anxious look of longing on her face.
"I have been thinking; what if we went to the city of Gedre, located near Kelvatch?"
"You mean it's easier to travel there from here?" Katrin asked.
"Yes, I have heard it is safe enough, and plenty of people living in Gedre are willing to sell us slaves and mercenaries. With your magic and the ones I am bringing, it won't be hard to get the local rulers to agree to allow us to enter their lands, and as soon as we leave, we can come back here without any problems."
"Just as long as the princess doesn't mind us leaving, as it is close to Kelvatch."
Alexander heard their discussion and began to formulate plans of his own, there was another high-level place near the village, but it was a full-day journey to get there and back, so he would probably spend several days away.
'That little princess, she would probably cry if I didn't return soon.' He thought to himself, even though he knew it would be for her good.
He briskly walked to the manor, not wanting to take too long and make the cute princess worry.
Thankfully, he asked Anna and the dark elves to take the materials and help boost the Sarian acceptance of the dark elves by giving spare food and materials to the poorer houses, the blacksmith tailor, and other places.
He also hoped to increase prestige with the people who came to the city and gathered each day slowly as the village now neared a town's number.
When Alexander finally entered the room of Qilana, sitting at her desk, pretending to fill out documents, her quivering hand and puffy eyes betrayed her as she looked up at him with a delighted look; both seemed relieved to see each other.
"I missed you."
[I missed you so much, why do you look so tired, your face is dirty!]
'Such a pretty little princess waiting for my return; I am blessed.'
"I wanted to see you quickly... forgive me for not washing my face or getting prepared."
"No... no, it's okay...!"
He held her hands in his own, feeling the warmth of her skin and her soft touch as he brushed his fingers through her blonde hair, making her giggle as he gently kissed her forehead and cheeks.
"I am glad you're back; I..."
He sat beside her and pulled her into his arms, kissing her cheek and neck before pulling back and looking into her eyes, taking a moment to think about what he should say.
"I have arranged for Zilna and my squad to visit the nearby city to hire some slaves and mercenaries."
[Eh!? You were so worried about me?]
[But with what money... Oh my~ don't use your money... I cannot repay you with anything... But I am so happy... relieved...]
"Mmmm, you can afford it. I don't want to put pressure on you..."
"Ah, I have a lot of the currency but didn't know until now you could use it here...."
[So silly... why did we never check!?]
'Ah, look at her cute cheeks...'
"Anyway, I hope you don't mind?"
"Of course not! I'm just surprised; I thought you had already hired others," she giggled again.
"Well, I have been busy lately; I hope you don't mind?"
Qilana was silent, trying to process what he said and whether she should object, but in the end, she decided it would be better to let him go. Her hands gripped his shirt as if wanting to stop him from moving.
"Don't worry; I am training the knights and dark elves here. We've collected over 40 of them now; if they are brought to the next stage, I think they will be worth more than their weight in gold."
[AH!? I'm jealous.]
[I thought he would leave with Zilna... she's so big... her ass and tits are amazing now...]
'I want to taste my cute princess soon... But we must wait because of Sapphira's laws on a royal marriage... shame.'
"Ah..." Qilana heard his voice and became sad before she felt his hands stroking her cheeks, gently kissing her lips with a loud smack, while the pair looked into each other's eyes.
'Well, such a cute princess is worth waiting an eternity for.'
[!!!!]
Alexander spent quite some time with her in this room, their lips kissing gently but never getting too passionate, as his hands teased and massaged her before a loud knock sounded, ending their time together.
[Stupid Zilna! I am hot and horny; she is coming now! Alexander too! I'm sticky and wet, but you don't get frisky like in the bath!]
He almost laughed at her thoughts but did his best to keep the laugh sealed, hugging her rightly and pushing his lower body against her ass, letting her feel his erection.
'I want to throw this cute girl down and ravage her, Zilna. Thank you for stopping me; the purity of a queen is important... I don't want Qilana to be insulted. She's my precious princess!'
"Umu..."
[Alex is killing me with his gentle love! I am so horny and lewd, yet he deeply cares about me! I can wait too... Let's endure! Swing my sword and spear till it's gone!]
Not too long after Zilna entered, Alexander left to check things that changed with his choices.
When he pushed open his door, he noticed the scent of women, probably the dark elves who had become addicted to his foreplay and torture and now slept in his room daily.
'Nobody is here... Let's take some time to see what my changes are...'

"It seems my Ghoul Leader occupation became Ghoul Master... I am not sure what that changed, but my attributes for combat went through the roof; last time, it was more my mental attributes; even the average had been updated..."
Alexander felt strange that his bronze at stage one was horrible before he evolved, but now he was in the top 10% of the entire Silver grade ranking list.
Not to mention his Local Ranking was far higher than he imagined, expecting there to be hundreds or thousands, but there were barely 40.
"Those command skills were more useful than the ones that Ghoul Lord offered... If I didn't get a chance to see the starting skill list, I might have gone, lord..."
The Ghoul Lord offered skills to boost one unit into a champion-like existence, while the Warlord created large units of strong warriors.
'We will be fighting 1vsMany soon, a champion might kill 100, but a group of 100 strong warriors will easily kill 1,000 or more.'
Despite wanting to try his new spells, he decided to wait until visiting the forest to the southeast because he was tired; the constant fighting and always overusing his regeneration began to take its toll on him.
'Thankfully, the girls won't want sex tonight... I already asked them to leave me be for a night.'
Alexander rolled over, his face looking out the window, a wry smile on his lips as the burden on his shoulders seemed heavier than before, but he felt great.
Since becoming a Ghoul Warchief, or maybe just Stage 3, his feelings and mind became more solid and didn't feel as weak as before.
"Let's build an army that can protect her and grow until the third impact..."
"My cute little Vesta... Daddy is working so hard for you all... comfort me..." Alex whispered as he fell asleep, the door gently opening as the dark elves and Venri snuck inside, all of them with pots filled with cream the helped to soothe a tired and sore body.
While he slept, the girls spent hours seeing that every inch of his body was smothered and massaged, enjoying his happy grunts through the night.
Alexander would wake up tomorrow in a sea of beauties, all of which were completely loyal due to his actions each day.
