Taming The Villainesses

Episode 237.2

(EP-237.2) Summer Vacation #2

237 – Each Summer Vacation #2

“Yes! My tail glows!”

Paseuseuk-. 

Marmar enthusiastically threw off the stifling summer blanket. Perhaps because of this, her tail gradually lost its glow. What a pity.

“I can also do this!”

Marmar pulled on her tail. I was worried for a moment, thinking she might try to pluck it off again. 

Though imps could regrow their tails, it was a very painstaking process. 

But contrary to my fears, Marmar’s tail stretched out like a rubber band.

“Your tail stretches?”

“That’s right! It’s a glowing, stretchy tail! This is proof that I’ve become an arch imp!”

Marmar spoke proudly, puffing out her chest.

An arch imp?

I didn’t know what that meant, but seeing Marmar as happy as someone who had won the lottery, it was clearly something good.

“That’s amazing.”

“Yes! An arch imp is a high rank officer in the Demon King’s army— overseeing other imps, doing various errands or acting as a messenger!”

An officer in the Demon King’s army? A high rank position?

Some parts were hard to grasp, but I got the gist.

==================================

Checking Marmar’s information with Farsight, I saw many changes since I last looked.

Her level had skyrocketed, making me wonder what had happened during that time.

The most surprising part was that her Little Demon level had reached 10. As far as I knew, level 10 was the end, or the threshold at which one could change to another job.

Perhaps Marmar’s new talents, 《Luminous Tail》 and 《Extending Tail》, were the perks gained from reaching level 10 in Little Demon.

Curious, I clicked on each of them. 

「Talent: 《Luminous Tail》: Tail can emit up to 125 mar of light. It has a mysterious power to draw everyone’s attention.」

「Talent: 《Extending Tail》: Tail can stretch up to 210 mar. It can be used to attack like a whip.」

… What kind of unit of measurement was ‘mar’?

There was a lot I didn’t understand, but Marmar seemed to realize my puzzlement and explained.

“Arch imps can convert nymphs and similar fairies! We make them our comrades!”

“Converting fairies, you mean…”

“Turning nymphs into imps!”

“Oh.”

Like lightning, it struck me… I realized a new relationship between nymphs and imps. You could create more imps…. 

Come to think of it, I had heard that the number of imps in Ark had increased recently. I thought it was just a rumor, but it turned out that these were nymphs converted by Marmar.

“How do you do it?”

“Mufufu, that’s a secret!”

‘I see.’

Although I was very curious, I didn’t feel like pressing Marmar further, so I decided to leave it at that. Sometimes, not knowing might be better. 

“Anyway, lately there are so many nymphs wanting to convert that we’re incredibly busy! If this keeps up and the number of imps increases, we might become an imp army!”

‘An imp army.’

What a thrilling prospect!

“But only imps chosen by the Demon King can become arch imps. I don’t know how I became one without the Demon King.”

“Really?”

Marmar seemed puzzled, but I had a thought. I remembered giving Marmar my blood before. Perhaps that had something to do with it.

「You have calmly judged the situation!

You have gained experience points through the talent 《Calm Thinking》.

All job experience +5」 

‘I understand now. ‘

I forgot about it because it didn’t work right away, but seeing this now, it seemed that the seed needed some time to germinate.

However, I couldn’t just reveal the truth, so I decided to compliment Marmar. 

“Marmar, you’re reaping the rewards of your hard work. If you keep striving and doing your best, it’s all going to pay off.”

“Really? You think so?”

“Absolutely. Marmar, you fully deserve to be an arch imp.”

“I see!”

Finally, Marmar raised her arms in delight.

“I deserve it!”

Now that I looked at it, this oddly good mood might be because it was summer season. 

“Anyway, it seems like you’re doing well, Marmar. Now that it’s vacation, do you have any plans? Are you going to stay in Ark?”

“En! Are you leaving Ark, Comrade? I heard there’s going to be some violent event called martial festival.”

So, Marmar had heard about the martial festival too.

“Well, I might go to the martial festival….”

Just as I was about to reply, I heard a commotion from the nymphs running around in the garden. They suddenly started shouting and making a fuss.

━Ack! It’s the strict elves… the kkanps are here…!”

━This is, nymphs, no, this is now the imps’ territory…! If you don’t want to taste the honey fist of Punchinoi, you’d better back off…!

Turning my head, I saw slender and tall elves surrounded by nymphs, who were puzzled by the scene.

━Why are there so many nymphs here? And you should know that kknap was designated as a hate term by the Church this year. You shouldn’t be using it.

━Kkanp! 

━Level the ground until the kknaps leave…! Let’s do it…!”

What on earth was going on?

I poked my head out the door, wondering what the hell was going on, and locked eyes with an elf with golden eyes shining behind thin frames.

She had a neat office suit and ash-gray bobbed hair. I had seen her face somewhere before. Who was she again?

“Sir Theo, do you remember me?”

“Ah, is it Miss Deneb from Elvendine Merchants Guild?”

“Yes. Sir Theo, I’ve been looking for you. Please come with us as per agreement.”
