[Day 104]

Today in the morning while everyone was sleeping, I checked on my precious shark twins.

They have grown some centimeters already, but nothing much, I can tell that they might take more time to grow into young adult state than Amiphossia and Ryo.

While the two little sea angels were soundly asleep, I checked on their bodies. Valentia orb which is on her left arm has grown in size, now resembling more of a spherical ball.

Using my [Enhanced Appraisal] I was able to tell that the Orb's name was [Conqueror Orb of the Domination Empress].

Her "monster" hand had its own name too and was a byproduct of the blessing from the Demi-God of Shadow Beasts, the hand name was [Beastly Hand of Chimeric Massacre].

Hmm, I can tell that she was born for war…

I realized that unlike my previous two children, the twins only have one orb each, I quickly assumed that Valentia was probably destined to eat her little brother and obtain his orb… That's is a horrible destiny.

Hm, I think that they will be able to obtain more orbs as they evolve anyways.

Aarae's orb is on his forehead and is of a red and blue color, it hasn't changed much but its magical power has increased quite a lot. Far surpassing what Amiphossia had on her second day of life. After inspecting his orb, I discovered that its name was [Aquatic Beast Orb of the Shark Familiar].

According to its description, this orb contains an innate Familiar in the form of a shark that will protect and grow alongside Aarae, although it hasn't shown itself yet.

Leaving the two resting peacefully, I checked on Amiphossia. Her two orbs have also increased in power. And it seems that the one on her belly has been shining brightly as it exudes powerful phantasmal magic.

Ryo's orb on his forehead has grown bigger, adapting to his new and stronger body, it can now make the energy flow easily through his muscles. Also, each orb on his arms has changed to a different color, resembling the elements they represent.

Meanwhile, on Rimuru's belly, I checked on my little Slime baby. Its been quite some time since its formation but it took his own time. It has only grown twice since I last checked it, having the size of three apples. The rainbow-colored pearl that will probably be its core has grown bigger too, way bigger, now reaching the size of an apple. I don't really know when will it be ready, but I could assume than around twenty days.

On Brontes side, our child has grown three times its size, now having a decent size, of around three apples…

I am comparing everything to an apple? It's just easy to understand, everyone has eaten an apple on their goddamn lives, right?

Anyways, Bronte's child has begun to glow very brightly for some reason, perhaps it means its happy? I caressed Brontes's belly while trying to make contact with the baby, and it worked… The baby began to glow even brighter from time to time as if trying to say "hello". It surprised me how intelligent it was while still being in the womb of her mother.

Mady and Adelle have already developed a fetus. Adelle has only one, while Mady has triplets… Well, that's going to be something… I left several flesh and slime minions with them so they can tell me the babies state and health.

I decided to make breakfast for my family as I found Charlotte, Lilith and Evan already awake, so they ended up helping me. The two girls had a clear talent and skill in cooking, while Evan was clumsy and quite messy. 

Also, Wagyu and Kekensha returned from their hunt and were sleeping at the side of a big pile of different monsters that they hunted last night.

Aaah, it would be comfy to sleep between the two fluffy boys.

When everyone was awake there was a big breakfast, the twins joined in and interacted a lot with everyone. Although they still didn't know how to talk. Amiphossia loved both of them and held them on her arms. Valentia liked to be lifted the most while Aarae was more fearful.

Suddenly, when Aarae began to cry, the orb on his forehead shined on a bright blue and red light, and a small shark appeared outside of it. The shark appearance was majestic and resembled a young hammerhead shark. Its body seemed to be corporeal, and it was covered on countless red and blue gems. The red light resembled Blade Energy, while the blue light was Water Magic.

The shark quickly approached the crying Aarae and its presence alone seemed to calm him. Such a strange power. However, I won't let a familiar take my job as a parent, so I quickly moved the inoffensive shark away and held the small Aarae on my arms, I began to chant a relaxing lullaby as he quickly calmed down.

"There, there…"

"There's no need to get so sad, Aarae, no one is going to hurt you"

Aarae looked at me with his beautiful aquamarine eyes while on silence, he seems to have calmed down.

When I tried to put him down, he began to look at me with puppy eyes. When someone else than me or Gaby tried to hold him, he would begin to cry again.

And like this, I spent half of the day playing around with Valentia and Aarae. Amiphossia and Ryo also loved their little brothers so they all played around.

The other half was spent on the last part of the fifth layer that I haven't explored, it was a big piece of "natural" forest. In this place, I remember hunting lots of Armored Bears and Two-Headed Crystal Horses.

However, there were more species around too. The hunt started with a big group of Armored Dark Apes, a species of monkeys with towering bodies of 5 meters, with a powerful, almost unbreakable dark-colored armor. They were also able to create weapons out of nowhere, attacking with giant maces, axes, and claymores. However, magic was very effective on them, so they still died quite easily.

[You gained 1423000 EXP] [The rest of your family/servants gained tons of EXP]

[LEVEL 009/250   EXP 1786465/6500000]

The High Kaiser of the group was the strongest, having the ability to summon a giant dark-colored claymore alongside a sturdy dark shield decorated with several red gemstones.

I wanted to kill it myself so I went all out while using my new abilities. I began to get more used to my new moldable aura which I can materialize. I can use it to attack creating giant punches or claws, and even mold it to protect me like a formless cape.

Even the Ape's powerful armor wasn't able to withstand the powerful Pressuring Punches that my aura was able to create, quickly deforming the beast beyond recognition. While doing this barrage of punches, I didn't even need to move. I had to hold the urges to yell "Ora, Ora, Ora!!!" as much as I could.

The last giant punch dropped over the Ape Kaiser, completely flattening it into a massive pool of blood.

SPLAT!

[LEVEL 009/250   EXP 2926465/6500000]

I quickly began to devour several apes as I was curious about their flavor, they had a rich beef flavor with a salty end. They didn't have much grease but the flavor of their blood was rather nice.

Aside from the Kaiser soul, the rest was only able to nourish my wives and my children souls.

[Armored Ape Shadow Obsidian Organic Shell Generation]

[Armored Ape Shadow Obsidian Organic Weapon Creation]

Next on the menu were what resembled to be Giant Armored Mantises. It seems that everything is wearing an armor on the last zone of the fifth layer… These Mantises came in all shapes and colors, some ferocious-looking ones were bright green colored, while others were of a beautiful pink luster and had somewhat humanoid figures, which is quite alluring.

However, I still killed them all easily with my Intimidation Aura Punches, which were able to smash them into unrecognizable debris of shattered limbs and armor.

More than twenty mantises of different species were killed and then happily devoured.

As it was already getting quite late, we ended the hunt while exploring a little bit of the Vast Plains, and just as we went outside we were greeted by a big group of monsters that resembled the Earth's Mammoth, however, these had three trunks and several spikes on their backs, alongside a deep black fur and giant sizes of more than 30 meters.

Each Mammoth was worth enough food to feed a family for four months. They were very strong and resilient, each one being of High Kaiser, and some even slightly stronger, but still not being able to jump to Overlord.

The hunt took several hours and we ended around 9 PM, however, the EXP gained and the endless supply of meat was worth it.

[You gained one level!] [LEVEL 010/250   EXP 0516965/8000000]

Their meat was rich in flavor and their blood was also of top quality, their souls were nothing special but sufficed for my family.

Having finished our hunt, we quickly flew at max speed towards the floating carriage. There, my twins were awaiting us with a giant dinner. Aside from meat, vegetables, and alcohol, there was also recently bakes bread, cakes, cheese, and milk. All of them of very high quality.

Everyone ate whatever they wanted and as much as they wanted. Valentia and Aarae liked meat the most and ate plentifully of the Mammoth meat, which I previously sliced in small sizes and grilled with a small amount of salt. More spices could cause problems to their young bellies.

At night, when everyone was sleeping, I slipped outside of the carriage and went to hunt on my own across the Vast Plains.

Without having to hold back my power, I mercilessly massacred several hordes of new monsters that I've never seen before.

The first on the menu were Giant Blazing Birds, a type of giant birds that resemble chicken, however, they have flaming crests and can spitfire. Their entire bodies go over the ten meters, and they walk in big groups of around thirty.

The leader was a very fatty female, which was protecting its eggs.

After killing around twenty, eating them and tasting their eggs, I decided to spare the rest and enslave them so they can create giant eggs for the Kingdom. Their meat was tender and had a spicy hint to it. The eggs were refreshing and sweet, with an orange yolk.

Second, on the menu was a giant flying bird that resembled the Thunderstorm Phoenix, but was of Dark element, simply named Dark Shadow Lesser Phoenix. It seems to be a recognized threat on the Vast Plains and its mostly avoided by adventurers due to its incredible strength and destructive magic. Sometimes seen as a "mini-boss" in here.

I thought that it was going to be a nice fight but it quickly ended, as I demolished the bird insides with three Intimidation Aura Punches on its stomach. The gigantic body clashed on the ground creating a small earthquake.

BOOM!

[You gained 908200 EXP]

[LEVEL 010/250   EXP 2766165/8000000]

Its meat was of a pure dark color and tasted quite bitter, however, when I grilled it and purified its bitter taste, it tasted quite great, almost comparable to the Thunderstorm Phoenix meat.

[Giant Black Shadow Feathered Wings]

And last, on the menu, there were humans. While traveling through the Vast Plains looking for prey, my mental map quickly noticed a big group of humans. However, these weren't normal adventurers or knights, neither merchants or nobles, but Nomads.

There is a certain ethnic group of humans named Vast Plains Wind People, who lives solely on this place. They travel through the plains while setting their camps from time to time to rest when there is good weather, and travel when it getting colder, going towards another better locations.

These humans are usually brown-skinned, with black or brown hair, sometimes blonde or white. Their eyes are most of the time bright blue and green. However, there are rare cases of yellow eyes.

They usually use clothes made of the pelts of monsters, decorated in various colors, mostly being brown, green and red. Females usually have several decorations on their hair alongside feathers. While males take pride in their musculature and strength and are usually bare-chested.

They are mostly skilled at using Spears, Lances, and Longbows. But certain groups are skilled at swordsmanship.

These nomads are considered stronger than the average adventurer and the leaders can rival Seasoned Knights or Veteran Adventurers. Sometimes, every few years, a big leader would appear and it would unify the several groups using its own strength. These individuals are often considered on a Hero or Champion level of power, and sometimes even become their [Legendary Party] members.

However, what I encountered tonight wasn't nothing much special, it was a scouting and hunting group of around twenty nomads, led by a beautiful Nomad Hunter woman, who was in her twenties. She had a slim and tall complexion, with beautiful legs and a strong charisma. Her hair was white and her skin was light brown, with green eyes.

The rest wasn't much remarkable outside of their skills, as some even had taming skills, which is a downgraded version of slaving for monsters. Although I wouldn't mind having it.

I quickly began my hunt first by trapping them inside a soundproof solidified magic dome, where they couldn't escape.

Afterward, I began killing automatically using the effect of my Intimidation, which can instantly kill weaker beings. The ones who survived my aura were paralyzed and even entered on coma due to the sheer fear, which I instantly killed using my magic threads coated on deadly poison.

The only one who remained conscious was the leader, who fought bravely. Due to her beauty and strength, I forgave her life and made her my slave.

[LEVEL 010/250   EXP 4233165/8000000]

[You successfully enslaved 1 Vast Plain Wind Nomad Seasoned Hunter, Yisu Chakha] [194/9999]

As I set the beauty to an induced sleep, I began gathering the human and horse corpses on a big pile, and while shapeshifting as a slime, I quickly devoured all of them without leaving any trace of blood left.

I believe there were more skills than this, but I suppose this is all you can get from such a little amount. I will have to devour more if I want every single skill.

Well, they don't belong to any Kingdom, so I could even absorb every tribe into my own while eating half of it… That doesn't sound like a bad idea. Good food and good soldiers.

Admiring my incredibly easy plan, I watched the sleeping nomad beauty.

"Now what do I do with you?"
