After hours of the dungeon run its time to head out good news is the first 20 or so floors after you reach them the dungeon unlocks stairs up to the top and back down to the floor you reached for quick travel. so I make it outside pretty fast it"s getting close to evening so I head on home. I"m not really interested in selling things to the guild when I use it myself. I make it to the gate and see hestia standing there smiling at me "Welcome home." she said with her beautiful smile.
"I"m home." I smile back. She helps me take off my armor and weapons and wipes off any goop and gunk on them at the table. While I head in to take a shower. Pummeling monsters to death can be pretty messy work.
I use my signature old spice shampoo conditioner and body wash 3 in 1 for efficiency. letting the warm water wash away the hard work of the day.
After my shower I"m pretty much given a full body inspection by hestia for injuries. Aside from minor bruises that are healing from an unlucky tail swipe I"m good. I explain what I did and she was shocked by all the kills I had most people get like 10 or so when starting out and only goblins. I had like 140 kills most being lizardmen. I show her all my crystals and she wondered why I didn"t sell them I told her I have a use for them. She didn"t ask questions.
A notification went off.
My shadow had found the person I was looking for it was a tiny little girl living in an ally by some trash she was weak and malnourished and covered in rags. This my sirs was Liliruca Arde. A pallum, pallum are small people often with dog ears and tails. The story of this girl is quite tragic. from what I remember when she was born her parents had sold her off to pay debts for some weird G.o.dly drink that acted like a drug. she was basically used as a pack mule and had to pay her parents debts and try to buy her freedom. however most of the people she worked for robbed her or betrayed her leaving her often broke and never really able to make it anywhere until finally she had enough one day and left who she was supposed to be guiding to a monster attack and that person died leading her to a pretty dark path and negative personality. That hasn"t happened yet so I plan to save her now and if anyone has any opinion on the matter they can see what my personal h.e.l.l is like.
I pat hestias head and tell her I"ll be back soon. I teleport into my infirmary to look at the poor girl whose nothing but skin and bones. She"s looking around in panic, such a tiny person. she"s under 5 foot tall like way under closer to 4 feet. I give her a friendly smile and pull out a nice hot bowl of stew and a spoon and give it too her. it"s made with some of my special water to help with internal wounds and be easy on the stomach. She looks wary at first but that all goes away at the thought of food. I let her eat in peace before I start talking. "h.e.l.lo little one my name is Ryan and currently your no longer in orario. Your in my personal kingdom known as dragonreach." I pull up a few screens showing her the castle and the city and even the farm. She looked shocked then excited then sad. I know why this is its because of the G.o.d she is under and the marking on her back for that personal Familia and needing to buy freedom. I simple pat her head and smile. "Would you like me to free you from your current family?" she looks happy but wary at the same time. "For what?" I just give her a bowl of more stew and say "For nothing at all." I have the system get rid of her G.o.ds brand. she notices right away. "it"s gone! it"s finally gone I"m free now." her happy face is good for the soul. she jumps at me and gives me a hug with more strength than her body should have. "Thank you I"ll do anything to repay you!" I just pat her head "well you can start by getting better this is Lily she will be giving you medicine to fix your body." I point over to lily who has a smile but a sad look in her eyes we"ve seen a lot of bad children lately. You never get used to it. "then you can live here and be a part of my family and we will take care of you. You don"t have to work or do anything I don"t need any repayment." there was a lot of babbling and tears and weird promises I didn"t hear and finally the poor girl was tuckered out and fell asleep. I filled Lily in on most of the girls history and make sure she"s taken care of before I head off to the main castle to see the girls.
Pin drop silence is what I"m met with. Then loud squeals and calls of cute before I"m swarmed by woman to be hugged and pa.s.sed around and cheeks pinched and made to sit in laps. I sit upon my throne with red swollen cheek and a pout. With some of the girls having those motherly looking eyes and some having even more strange looks and Sirius just laughing so hard he"s crying. little a.s.shat I"ll remember this. Have Fred and George swap out his body wash for shrinking potion yes that will do.
"My lord you look much more like me now." says tyrion I had stolen him for my kingdom he was quite eager to see my monsters and library and even help around the kingdom not to mention I had apparently stolen all the pleasure slaves in the continent and a lot of them wanted to still work at brothels cause its what they do sadly. he was one happy dwarf.
"From now on tyrion you must call me big brother." I"ll simply kill off any of his reputation. I explain about lili to the girls and they promise to take care of her. then explained my day and had them read about the world later. after I checked the kingdom was going well and the vampire body was implementing things I went back home.
I explained to hestia I"ll tell her about that secret later in exchange I"ll show her a different secret.
I call out 15 of my shadows and separate them in groups of 5. I had 1 more in hestias shadow that I showed her and told her it was for her protection she was happy to know i was watching out for her. then I had 3 more watching the illegal slave trade in the city buying out slaves I had already checked the town for the person I was looking for she wasn"t here so she would be within the next year I"d buy her when she came and let her into my kingdom.
tTheses one though. It"s f.u.c.king time boys. the moment we have all been waiting for. The actual use of shadow hack. I set up 3 groups 1 mage 1 cleric 1 archer 1 a.s.sa.s.sin and 1 main attacker.
The mage are all black mages with a regular setup cla.s.sic staff I had bought materia from final fantasy 7 based world for 10m a pop. I got ice, lightning, fire, bio and earth. the reason I bought these is that they grow. they are little b.a.l.l.s you basically suck into your skin and let you cast that specific spell. From what I know these have 4 levels level 1 is Fire single target fire based spell, level 2 is Fira stronger single target fire based spell, level 3 is Firaga medium fire based mult.i.target spell, and level 4 is firaja strong mult.i.target fire based spell. all the elemental ones work like that. earth has 2 one is quake and the other is a earth spike spell. Bio is just low level poison medium level poison then High level poison.
Next up the cleric has basic white magic cure, heal, protect, sh.e.l.l, works the same as black magic cure heals wounds, heal works on poisons and negative status effects protect is for melee defense and sh.e.l.l is magical defense. basic robe style and staff gear.
next the a.s.sa.s.sin basic dual daggers leather gear and throwing knives. the archer has a dagger a bow and arrows using leather aswell. and the main attacker all all different 1 is a spear wielder in medium armor like mine the next a set up like mine basic armor with the sword and gloves and the last one is a great axe with medium armor. I set them all up in matching gear hoods up with facemasks the black mages have hats like vivi from final fantasy so it"s okay and I let them all head to the dungeon and get me loot and levels for more shadows.
hestia is shocked when I tell her what they can do I could basically sit around and do nothing and get stronger however I don"t know if they effect my excellia I don"t think they do. so I"ll still have to go back in and do that myself. I get mostly skills upgrades and experience for new shadows or my other system if I choose that but really I want more shadows.
