Chapter 308: The Devilish Empress is Pampered by her Family

Epic of Caterpillar

[Day 189]

This morning, the little life inside of my womb began to ask for food, as my own belly growled furiously. Although I eat a lot every day, my belly has never growled like this before, and the food that I ate the day before would be enough to never make me starve like this…

But this child… It's draining me.

Surprisingly, Nesiphae and Nixephine were growing attentive to me, and the moment they heard my stomach growling, they got up from the bed and called the maids to serve breakfast, while they went hunting for more Dungeon Bosses.

"Leave it to us, Master~"

"A child that eats a lot means that its very healthy, right? Let's go, we'll bring you tons of Dragon meat!"

And so, they parted away, while the rest of my wives attended me as if I were some kind of delicate princess, while the others brought the food with the Arachne Maids help.

I can't deny the fact that I like this treatment… But still, isn't it too much? I can move just fine…

Brontes grabbed me with her strong and muscular arms and carried me like a princess to the bathroom, where she carefully washed me with the help of Rimuru, Zehe, Gaby, Adelle, and Mady. Each girl was washing a part of my body… Although I've been the Empress of this whole Kingdom for quite some months, it was the first time that I felt like a truly spoiled royalty.

"How does it feel, Mastaa?" Said Rimuru while washing my feet with her hands, and an aromatic soap made out of countless flowers, it was rather itchy, but I contained myself.

"It feels very good… Thanks, Rimuru… But, don't you think that this treatment is too much…?"

"Nonsense! I've always wanted to wash Mastaa! Masta is Masta after all, guu!" She said, her argument was… well, convincing?

Brontes was washing my back with a serene and relaxed face, she was enjoying herself, it seems.

"Brush, brush~," She said, while using a sponge made out of special fruit, gently washing my back with the foam of soap.

Zehe on the other side was washing my chest and neck.

"Such beautiful features~ Honey is more like a doll… Yiksu chan, help me out~" She said, calling on Yiksukesh, who was also in the bathroom relaxing inside a bathtub with hot water, she seems to be coldblooded, so entering in the hot water makes her go into a state of relaxation, almost like meditation, or just sleeping.

She opened one of her crimson eyes and glanced at me, she then stood up and did some stretches, and slowly moved towards Zehe's side, grabbing another sponge and gently washing me without saying a word.

Has she become more obedient?

"Yiksukesh, are you okay?"

"No, I hate this…" She said, with a plain voice.

Then why is she even doing it?!

Gaby and Adelle were gently washing my belly, although Gaby was concentrated on her task, Adelle couldn't stop to look at my nude breasts as they bounced around while Zehe washed my chest, with an almost voracious expression in her face.

"Zehe, let me change positions with you!" She said.

"Huh? No! I will wash the master's chest! I claimed it first!" Answered Zehe, with a firm tone, she didn't want to give in.

"B-But I want to change places! My wife, what do you say?" Asked Adelle, glancing at me… well, at my breasts.

"Adelle, please don't start a pointless discussion again… also, why are you girls still washing my body as if I couldn't even move?! Enough…!" I said, as I moved by myself and submerged into a bathtub.

"Eeeeh? But Mastaa! I was washing your beautiful legs!" Said Rimuru, disappointed.

The rest of my wives also complained. It seems that I ruined their fun… But I'm not letting them treat me like a toy or a doll…!

Before leaving the bathroom, I washed my wives instead and made them feel the embarrassment I felt, although only Adelle and Yiksukesh seemed to be embarrassed, with the rest just enjoying it.

After the relaxing bath, I had some more food to stock up so the baby wouldn't begin to get hungry in the middle of the day while I could be doing something else.

Just as I said yesterday, the girls that are part of the training group needed to grind levels in the dungeon now, as Undead wasn't enough for them anymore. However, I made them do harsh exercises continuously first, s they can get closer to their [Superhuman Strength] Skill, and make the others level it, even if a little.

In the middle of the training, Oga, the Fire Oni Chief Daughter came to visit, she seems to have been quite busy with her tribe and her father, assessing the people and distributing supplies and houses. Now that she was finally free, she came for me.

"Master, I'm finally free~ Let's go on a date! I heard from the other girls that that's what a couple does, right?" She said, without a hint of embarrassment in what she said.

The rest of the girls that were exercising almost fell to the ground as they heard her words.

"A DATE?!" they said, at the same time, perfectly synchronized.

"Sure…" I said, the moment my words dropped, Oga's crimson eyes released small flames of excitement, ever her breasts became a little bit pointy out of nowhere.

"Alright, let's get going~! The girls also talked about love hotels, so we can visit one afterward, right?" She said, excited about what waited for her in the next couple of hours.

"No, Oga, let's do another type of date today… How about you show me your physical strength in these simple exercises that the girls are doing?"

"Huh? I… sure, why not?" She said, as she did some stretches and immediately began to exercise, doing, doing sit-ups, push-ups and squats as if they were absolutely nothing. Oga's immense physical capabilities were lower than Brontes or Nesiphae, but they were certainly outstanding, she is, after all, the strongest member of a race that is born with [Superhuman Strength] from the start and that it's also blessed with incredible musculature and stamina.

The other girls saw Oga as a rival and immediately began to exercise with all of their might, they didn't want to lose to their new contender.

I began to increase their exercise routines constantly, but Oga remained unstained, she never grew tired and even seemed to get even faster and more pumped out as she exercised more.

The other girls began to feel tired, and Ismena and Nanako were about to fall unconscious, while Acelina, using her royal lady voice of always, challenged Oga to a duel of exercise.

"I, Acelina Athetosea, shall not lose to the likes of you! Now, Oga, accept my challenge! The one who falls first will have a date with Master's!"

Huh? Hey! I didn't approve of this.

"Sure! Let's do it! Oooooooohh!" Shouted Oga, increasing her speed while doing sit-ups, Acelina did the same sit-ups, while still wearing her armor.

"Hmmph! Oooh~!" She screamed, releasing steam from her beautiful body, afterward, the energy in her body exploded in a stream of wind, throwing away her armor, leaving her with the tight gym clothes bellow

"Huh? You suddenly got better?!" Screamed Oga.

"Heh! This is my true power, Oga! I was always using that armor to put on more burdens on my body! But now that I've liberated myself from that, I've increased my power and stamina by a tenfold!" She said, as a powerful stream of yellow wind reinforced her muscles and speed, her legs and butt became stronger and bigger as she sit-ups.

Isn't she just using magic to increase her strength? Well, Oga is doing the same.

Oga released a maniac smile as she laughed, showing her sharp and white teeth.

"Hehe! I like your attitude, but you're done for!" She said, as her body released tons of steam everywhere, her body then was engulfed in flames, increasing the speed of her sit-ups to something inhumane.

"Uoooooooohhh!"

"Oooooooh!"

As the two standing girls battled for their priced personal date with me, the other girls gave up on the challenge and did the exercises at their own phase.

The Centaur Twins, who didn't participate due to their different morphology, were at my sides.

"They are putting on a lot of effort, aren't they?" Said Sofelaia.

"Yeah… It's admirable. That's the might of women, Sofelaia" Said Sofarpia.

"The might… of women! You mean… muscles?!" Asked Sofelaia, admiring the beautiful blazing muscles of Oga, and the slim yet dazzling muscles of Acelina.

"Indeed! Muscles!!!" Shouted Sofarpia, while posing with her strong and slim arms and belly, while showing off her lower horse side, which was also incredibly muscular and sturdy.

"Oooh! Big sis, you got such beautiful muscles! Look at those biceps, Master!"

"Indeed, they are beautiful…"

In the end, the winner was Oga, but it was only because Acelina's shorts tore apart due to her intense sit-ups, her beautiful white butt was revealed to anyone watching, making her incredibly embarrassed and flustered, she forfeited and went to change her clothes with Ismena's help.

Honestly, this whole thing was over the top, Oga influence was too big for some reason. Her competitive nature awakens the rivalry between my wives.

After having a big lunch consisting of a ton of grilled dragon meat, rice, and a salad of all types of vegetables, we gathered the group and went to an expedition towards the former Forsaken Labyrinth dungeon, which new name was too long for me to remember all the time.

In the end, I decided to bring my two daughters who were currently free, Vudia, and Ailine, their mothers were busy in their respective fields. Nefertiti, Nixephine, and Nesiphae also joined in, as they were about to go hunt again, well, Nefertiti was forced to come by me.

Mao and the mounts joined in as well, and Amiphossia sent some of her ghosts to gain Experience Points passively in the party, the Shirohebi woman was included.

I noticed that Mao precited her flight a lot, leveling the skill, it seems that she wants to be a useful as a mount, and decided to level up her flight skill so she could be faster than me, and become "useful". However, as she was, she was already a very useful warrior that could protect the grand forest and my empire with the rest of the Chimera.

Thanks to the [Dungeon Maintenance] and [Dungeon Assimilation] Skills, I was able to easily teleport with my entire group whenever we wanted inside the dungeon, so the grind that took us so long before was now resumed in some hours, killing each boss while sweeping the last floors, leaving them almost clean. Even when we killed every single monster, they immediately began to respawn after some minutes, showing the amazing effects of the dungeon merge.

[Calculating EXP gained…]

[Kireina] gained 17.122.593.020 EXP!]

[Kireina] level has increased!]

[LEVEL 059/250 EXP 5.758.734.863/17.600.000.000]

When the farming was done, various of the weak ghost that was sent by Amiphossia quickly evolved into stronger variants, like Winter Ghosts, Hell Ghosts or Toxic Ghosts. The Shirohebi lady had reached the max level and would evolve this night, the same happened with Oga.

Nesiphae spent most of the trip over her Giant Golden Beetle Mount while killing and eating anything that came it's way, most of the mounts reached the max level as well and evolved. They all became prettier and stronger. Nesiphae's mount in specifically became a Golden Venomous Beetle, and it was now capable of releasing a powerful toxin from its jaw and throw it like projectiles.

Mao had already gone through a forced evolution yesterday, so she required way more Experience Points to evolve again, but she leveled her skills a lot, and showed some weaker versions of my own skills and spells. This is because I used a few of my Lesser Slime Clones on the fusion of yesterday. Her flight speed became way faster, but it was still far from my [Illogical Propulsion Speed] Skill.

Vudia and Ailine were special cases, as they had already evolved in their mother's bellies, so they needed absurd amounts of Experience Points to evolve. However, each level they gained increased their stats exponentially, and their Skills were also being leveled steadily.

Vudia had become a master of Golems with her Gold Creation and Manipulation alongside her Electric Conductivity Skills. Ailine had increased the level of her Nine Colors Princess Magic, giving a boost to the strength of her multi-elemental spells.

Nanako was approaching her evolution, and in some more days of training inside the dungeon would be enough. Nanako, unlike Lilith, is a special case of Mixed Blooded Demi-Humans who have the benefits of both of their blood, the Human Blood and the Demi-Human blood, meaning that she can evolve and also have access to the humans natural talent, fast leveling and stat boost alongside their special and stronger Class Trees. Kaguya was far from evolving yet, as she had evolved a month ago, after the Athetosea war.

After the training session was done, a hunger assaulted my entire body, so I quickly saved all of the monster corpses in my Item Box and teleported with the rest of the group to the first floor.

Reaching the castle, the Royal Cooking Team had a lot of work, but Chokumotsu, Kean, and Rimuru were happy to serve. Rimuru was said to be especially useful in the cooking team thanks to her shapeshifting as a slime, being able to shapeshift her body, creating multiple arms to cook, and multitask faster.

After half an hour, we had a hearty dinner, where the Centaur Twins, Oga, and the mounts were invited. Vudia and Ailine were acting spoiled today and sat down on my legs, their warm little bodies were very comfortable. The two little princesses ate tons of dragon meat as well, and even feed me with their forks and spoons.

"Mommy, say "Aaah" …!" Said Vudia, while raising her arms and offering me a slice of grilled Calamity Dragon meat, deliciously seasoned with different spices.

I happily received my daughter offering as I gently bit on the meat and ate it whole, this seemed rather comical for her as she released a chuckle.

Ailine then did the same, offering me a piece of sliced Thunderstorm Phoenix chicken breast; "My turn~! Mommy, say "ah", say "ahhhh" …!"

"Aaah~ Chomp… Hmm, delicioush!"

"Hehe~"

And like this, I spent the rest of the dinner with my family.

[Kireina] learned the following Skills]

[Grand Illusion Screen]

[One Hundred Illusive Eyes of the Chaos Worm]

[The Levels of the [Tyrannical Empress Glorious Command; Level 1], [Dungeon Area Assimilation; Level 7] and [Dungeon Maintenance; Level 3] Skills have increased!]
