Today in the Dark Moon Empire, the group of Chimeras led by Catterpillar, alongside other monsters such as Wall, Mao, Vajrara, and Gubo gathered in a dining hall, at the rooftop of the castle. 

Everyone was enjoying a special item that Kireina had recently became able to produce. 

The food was some fruit, it resembled a simple and large apple. However, each one received an apple of a different color.

The one creating them so easily was a red-colored slime with the shape of a beautiful and voluptuous woman. It was one of Kireina's Slime Clones, one specifically made to produce Ambrosia fruits.

The fruits sparkled in a shiny light, each one containing a large amount of magic, life, and spirit energy inside.

The Chimeras and a few others were the first ones to taste it. Kireina was doing a 'taste test' after having obtained this skill, arranging it with her Slime Clones.

These Slime Clones were capable of bearing delicious fruits for consumption, which also served as precious materials, they were currently teaching the Dryads captured by Kireina in how to bear consumable fruit.

Naturally, the Dryads were also present, the Empresses of each subspecies and the Dryad Queen (the one of the Grand Forest, not Morpheus's Dungeon).

It seems that anyone that wanted to try them out would receive one, most of the time the color of the fruit was related to the attribute affinity of the consumer.

Caterpillar munched the purple and black-colored apple with great enthusiasm, its cat fangs voraciously devouring the fruit's juicy pulp. Sweet flavors only akin to the most delicious delicacies filled its tongue and went through its throat, while it flew around.

"Nyaaaarr! T-This is ridiculously sweet! So good! I am going to die of pleasure! This is the best, I tell you!" it shouted.

Aside from Catterpillar, each of the Chimera degusted an apple as well, some were pink, others crimson red, and others dark like the night. Only Shiny, the Golden Wyvern Chimera was devouring a bright yellow one.

Mao was eating one that had both yellow and dark colors, while Vajrara was eating a completely purple one.

Wall was eating a red and purple one, degusting it and dancing in the pleasure of the flavor.

"So good! This is so good! Uwah… Eating things with friends is the best!" she said.

Mao waved her scorpion tail around while munching the fruit, in a few bites it was completely gone.

"Haah… Huh?! It disappeared?!"

"Mao, you ate it too fast! You're a gluttonous girl!" said one of Kireina's Slime Clones.

"S-Sorry, Master… It was just… delicious! Can I have another one?" she asked.

"Hmm… alright," said Kireina's Slime Clone, creating a new fruit as if it grew from her red, semi-transparent arms.

"I wonder what would happen if you try out one without your attribute affinities… try to eat this Wind and Thunder Attribute Ambrosia," said the Clone, handing the delicious green and yellow colored fruit to the voracious Mao, her mouth already leaking saliva.

"Thanks, my beloved Master! Nom, nom! Ooh! This one is quite electrifying! Uwah… And sour! But it's good! It is so good! Nom, nom…! Haah…! Huh?! It was gone!"

"You ate it too fast again. You're too gluttonous, try to eat slowly next time… but it seems that you haven't been affected negatively by eating it"

"Why would I? I am strong, my beloved Master!" said Mao, with a happy smile.

"Yes, you are a good girl, Mao. Here, try this one as well. Let us see if there is any limit on the consumption of this. If you feel any weird symptoms tell me right away, okay?" said Kireina's Slime Clone, as she handed Mao yet another fruit, this time it was Red and Purple-colored.

"Thanks, my beloved Master! Nom, nom!" shouted Mao, trying to eat the fruit slowly but ultimately failing.

"Master! I want fruit!" said a large and armored caterpillar, with the size of a cow, Chunky, one of the ten Chimera siblings.

"Ah, Chunky, did you already finish the one you ate?"

"Yes, Master! I want more fruit! Give!" it said, with an adorable voice.

"Alright, here you go… let's see if you can eat a lot…" said Kireina's Slime Clone, generating a pile of different-colored Ambrosia fruits.

"Thanks, Master! Nom, nom! Nom, nom!" shouted Chunky, devouring the fruits.

The rest of the Chimeras saw chunky getting a whole pile for himself and also asked for more, making the Slime Clones decide in creating piles of fruit this time. Already seeing that nothing dangerous could happen if they ate more than one.

The Slime Clones detected that anyone that ate the fruits would receive a considerable boost in strength. All of their stats would increase a bit, and several magic skills would level up.

Some who were compatible enough to a certain attribute they had never had, would often obtain that attribute magic skill.

"Ah! My beloved Master, I have obtained Wind and Thunder Attribute Magic! And… Ah! And I acquired Nature and Earth Attribute magic as well! I feel like I am unlocking all of my latent powers! Gaaooo…!" roared Mao, her large and voluptuous body raised its hands to the sky, celebrating her power-up.

"So you got four new attributes of magic?! Incredible… but have you gotten any other attribute?" asked the Slime Clone.

Mao waved her head.

"No… I have already eaten over fifty and I have not received any more powers… but they are so delicious! And recovers all my HP, MP and Stamina!" said Mao.

It seems that the fruits have a limit on how much new power can they grant. Kireina's Slime Clones analyzed this information and began to inspect everyone that ate a bunch of fruits.

"Nyaaarrrr! Nyahahaha! I am so strong now! I will destroy everything with my might!" shouted Caterpillar, while releasing flames from her body.

"Did you get new magic, Catterpillar?" asked a young fairy, with the size of a girl in her teens, she had a third eye and scythes as hands, Faire.

"Nyaarrr! Indeed, I got it! And my magic skills all leveled up! Nyahaha! Admire my hellish blazes, powerful ocean's waves and windstorms!" shouted Catterpillar, as she flapped her butterfly wings, small amounts of fire were produced, alongside spiraling rivers of water and mild breezes.

"She is really pumped up… I got Earth Magic and Thunder Magic, though they are of low level" said a large, fluffy and dark-colored goat with the tail of a dragon, filled with spikes, at closer, inspecting its hair would resemble tentacle, Eldritch Goat.

"Grawl! Grawwwl!" roared Shiny, the Golden Wyvern Chimera, as he flapped his wings and held Catterpillar over his lap.

"Nyahaha! Let's conquer the world, Shiny! You and I shall be invincible in the heavens and earth!" roared Caterpillar.

"She seems to have received a large boost in power, she had become very proactive. It's quite unlikely of her because she's always a lazy slug" said Snailbat, a large, black-colored snail with a dark shell and giant bat-like wings.

"Aren't you lazy as well? Snailbat…?" asked Kuma, a large crimson bear with red-colored wyvern wings and long tentacles on its back.

"K-Kuma, don't say that!" shouted Snailbat.

"Ah, I shouldn't have to? Sorry, sister" apologized Kuma.

"It was quite ironic to call Catterpillar a slug because you are a snail… yeah it's quite obvious. Ah, am I being redundant here? Sorry, I don't know how to begin conversations properly," said Orbia, a giant mass of red tentacles and eyes.

"Orbia, we should work on your social skills a bit, you are a good fighter, but that's it," said a giant butterfly with several wings, each time it flapped strong winds were released, Charcoal.

"Hey, why are you so rude sometimes, Charcoal?!" shouted Eldritch Goat.

"Don't mind him, it must be because he got all pumped up as well… Fruit was good though. Hm, I think I got Water, Nature and Thunder Magic…" said Chunky, the giant caterpillar.

"Ah, I wonder why the attributes of magic that we obtain are together into a single skill though? Like Fire and Poison, Attribute Magic is a single skill instead of being separated… It is strange. Could this mean something else?" asked Kuma. 

"It most likely means that we are awesome," said Faire.

"Well, I don't want to doubt that. We are truly quite the incredible creatures, compared to everything else… but still" analyzed Kuma.

"Yeah, it must be the fruits, they were always of two colors, so it means that we would learn those two attributes merged," said Dragon Bunny, finally speaking after devouring a dozen fruits, "I cannot get any more skill level ups or magic… it seems that two new skills are the limit, no matter if they are double attribute or a single attribute."

"I see! So that is how it is… This was a considerable boost, but I also want our beloved Master to evolve us if possible" said Faire, her beautiful and smooth body dancing around the air with her butterfly wings.

"Faire, you want to get a more mature body to lure Master with your womanly charm?" asked Dragon Bunny.

"Geh! How did you know?" Faire said.

"Well, aren't you an open book sometimes… it was your face. You were holding that lewd face that you do sometimes. I suspect that you may be part succubus as well" said Snailbat.

"Okay, I may accept Dragon Bunny recalling my attitude, but Snailbat, aren't you just as interested?! After Levana-sama told you that your next evolution could be humanoid, you suddenly became very hopeful on getting Master to like you, sexually!" said Faire.

Snailbat became too flustered and hid in her shell.

"Fweeh! You are so rude sometimes! You're a big bully!" she shouted.

"You girls… can you stop this pointless drama…? Hm, did I say it well? I am still trying to get used to the 'big brother' thing" said Eldritch Goat.

��Yeah, I think so. But you should have a firmer tone of voice… like this. Ahem! GIRLS! STOP FIGHTING!!!" shouted Kuma.

"Nyaarr! You're so loud, Kuma!" shouted Catterpillar.

"Ah, sorry, sister" apologized Kuma. He was a humble guy.

"Kuma, that was just yelling. You won't make the girls listen to you like that, they will end up hating you" said Dragon Bunny.

"Ooh… I do not want that. Perhaps I should learn how to be a big brother from Eldritch Goat instead?" asked Kuma.

"You're so awkward." Said Orbia.

"Orbia, I think you're the most awkward of all of us, you're a mass of tentacles with eyes," said Dragon Bunny.

"Yes! And I am the most beautiful at that! All of the Scylla worship me as their new emperor" said Orbia, proudly. He waved his tentacles around.

"Hmm… it must be nice to have your own fan club! Isn't it?!" said Chunky, if he had arms, he would be crossing them right now.

"Chunky, don't get so angry," said Dragon Bunny.

"I'm not hungry!" shouted Chunky.

"I am angry… A-n-g-r-y" added Dragon Bunny.

"Ah! Well, I am not angry! What makes you think that?! Also, Orbia, weren't you socially awkward? Why do you have a fan club of Scylla then?! This doesn't make sense to me!" shouted Chunky.

"Well… the thing is… I have not talked to any of those girls. They just like my tentacles… T-They are creepy, to be honest. Sometimes, they are following me around through the streets…" muttered Orbia.

"Hm, perhaps I don't want to have a fan club anymore," said Chunky.

"Me neither, I am fine with my beloved siblings," said Eldritch Goat.

"Oh! That sounded very 'big brother'-like!" shouted Kuma.

"Really? Phew. It's hard to be the responsible figure within ten siblings," added Eldritch Goat.

"And since when you are the big brother? Who gave you that role?" asked Dragon Bunny.

"None, I just decided to be one. I saw Ryo the other day, and he's a very cool guy, being the big brother of so many cute sisters," answered Eldritch Goat.

"So just because he's a cool guy?!" shouted Dragon Bunny.

"Ah, I want to be like Amiphossia-sama and be a big sister! Can I be?" asked Faire.

"Well… there are slots free, so I guess so" said Kuma.

"Kuma! Stop talking nonsense! No, you won't be our big sister!" shouted Snailbat, coming out of her shell.

Kireina's Slime Clones had been hearing this conversation all the time.

"They are so lively, as always," said one.

"I suppose so" added another.

"I didn't know that Faire and Snailbat wanted to have something with the main body" muttered a third.

"It will be very hard for them. The main body is currently being offered the bodies of several goddesses," added a fourth.

"She's having it rough, huh? Meanwhile, we are just making fruits," said the first one.

"It's not like this is not the carefree life that we once desired in our first lives, so it's nice," said the second one.

"Yeah, stop complaining," said the third.

"I'm not complaining. I also find it nice; I wonder if we could have our own wives and child… would the main body allow it?" said the first one.

"I don't see why not. As long as we fulfill our tasks, I think we can do whatever we please. Having a few cute wives shouldn't affect our work" said the fourth one.

"Hm… I want a cute catgirl" said the second one.

"I would like a dragon girl or a reptile of some kind… could there be an available Alligator Lizardman girl? Since they evolved, they are cute" said the first one.

"We are just as lustful as the main body. I will send you all to the horny jail if you keep talking such things in the middle of work" said a fifth Slime Clone, reprimanding the rest.

"Okay, okay…" they muttered, going back to their work in producing fruits.

Wall, Mao, and Gubo were glancing at each other in confusion.

"That was a very weird conversation… Is Master the Slime Clones, or are they separated? She is not like me?" said Wall.

She was different than Kireina regarding minds. Kireina was capable of dividing her mind into 'wills' to make each of her Slime Clones intelligent and independent, while also maintaining a mind connection when there was the need to communicate something. Meanwhile, Wall was just the same mind in two bodies. 

"My beloved Master… maybe I could have an opportunity with her Slime Clones? They are like her in a way, gao!" said Mao, she was enthusiastic.

"Gubo… I want to make a baby… Gaby-chan said that Kireina-sama is best for that." Added Gubo, the thunder slime girl that belonged to Gaby.

"Have you girls not tried to look for a different male?! Why does it have to be Kireina? Ah well, it's not like I care about things such as having a mate" said the arrogant Dryad Queen, whose name was Elysia.

She was currently the only Dryad capable of speaking, alongside her children and sisters. The other subspecies were more savage and could not speak words.

The Cactus Empress grimaced what Elysia said. She waved her head, the other Dryad Empresses glanced at Elysia with angry expressions.

"What? Do I get something in my face…? S-Stop looking at me like that!" roared Elysia, running away while blushing.

"She's so bad at lying, she's charmed by Master Kireina as well," said Vajrara, who was with the Tentacle Dryad Empress… they were good friends for reasons unknown.

"Fufufu" laughed the Tentacle Dryad Empress, with lusty eyes.

"Vajrara, I'm starting to doubt your current friendship choices…" muttered Yiksukesh, who usually hang out with the Chimeras and Vajrara.

"Yiksukesh! D-Don't say that…"

"Hmm…"

Yiksukesh was skeptical about what could Vajrara and the Tentacle Dryad Empress do when they were alone… but she did not ponder in the thought for too long, as she guessed that finding the truth would be not worth it.
