Book 8: Chapter 34
So its decided that Im going to fight against a powerful looking ogre, but
When I summoned Hakoku from the Spirit World, that same ogre promptly acknowledged that he lost.
ording to him, There is absolutely no way I will win against you, the wielder of that sword.
But you wouldnt know unless you try it, right?
Oh, was it because of <em>that?</em>
<em>Those who are truly powerful also excel in the ability to discern their opponents strength</em>, something like that.
He probably predicted that he would lose against me, and even if its just barely, he still gantly epted his loss.
Well, if he wanted to be myrade without having to fight against me, then that would be for the best.
He was willing to be Tamed, so I activated the magical circle and Tamed him.
By the way, you can use Tame, an envement magic, even at Level 1.
However, the sess rate of envement magic that a Level 1 practitioner could do was extremely low. Even slimes could possibly resist it.
Thats why I did what I always do I turned the structure of the envement magic into fragmented parts, then with thebination of lowest level magic and the magical circle made from the characters that were created from mana, I made a reproduction of the Tame magical spell.
The genuine Tame spell included the magical form to strengthen the subordinate.
Of course, I also replicated that.
I touched the ogres head as he bowed before me and activated the envement magic. At the same time, I also strengthened him because he had be my subordinate.
If Im not mistaken, ogres are A-ss monsters, right?
Not only that, this guy seems to be super strong.
In that case, he can probably bear it if I poured 1 million mana points in him, right?
And so, I poured a lot of mana in the strengthening form nonstop.
Unexpectedly, he received a lot.
I ended up giving him around 5 million mana points.
Afterward
His once powerful body shriveled up.
Eh!?
D-Dont tell meDid the strengthening phase failed?
This was the first time it happened to me.
In order to station monsters in the dungeon floors, I went to various ces taming monsters and strengthening them. Most of them had undergone changes that made them stronger than before they were Tamed.
And yet, this ogre was the only guy who had gone from the muscr physique characteristic of an ogre to a shapely, human-like figure.
At first nce, the only thing different was the two horns growing out of his temples other than that, he could totally pass as a human.
T-This is
The ogre stood up.
His height was a bit taller than Ryuushin?
His face had totally transformed into a human one.And hes quite the dashing guy now.
Eh, perhaps he evolved?
I read in a book that ogre monsters could evolve into the Kijin Race of Oni.
Oni are a tribe considered to be second only to the nine-tailed foxes.
Aruji-dono!
The former ogre stood, checked himself, then genuflected before me.
Apparently, he officially acknowledged me as his master.
Did you evolve?
Yes. Thanks to Aruji-donos tremendous power pouring in me, I have be one of the Kijin Race. I will offer all this newly obtained power to Aruji-dono from here on.
Congrats, er oh, right, you dont have a name yet. Is it alright if I give you one?
If Aruji-dono bestows it, then with utmost pleasure.
Hmm, then, how about Orga?
Thank you very much. This Orga pledges my loyalty to Aruji-dono to myst breath!
Yup, thanks.
I like his former appearance though, it fits the image of a dungeon boss more
Ah, but if the dungeon floor boss is an Oni, then wouldnt that be more prestigious?
And so, I appointed him to be the 18th floor boss of the Dungeon Ruins as nned.
Alright, next will be
!?
I stepped towards the woman sitting meekly on the ground.
Her jaw dropped as she watched me Tame Orga, and she looked utterly bbergasted.
She looked extremely terrified when I turned to look at her.
Dont worry, be at ease.
I wont hurt you.
I finally found the person whom I can entrust with the position of my dungeons Final Boss.
Theres no way Im letting you go.
Original-san, that girls strong.
Yup yup. I think shes a majin of the warlock ss*.Wont Taming her be impossible, then?
My clones were worried about me.
But its alright.
I still have that <em>trump card </em>that I recently mastered.
Well, just watch.
I used mana and formed the Divine Script characters used by the deities with my right hand
Previously, I could only use Divine Script to teleport to the Divine Realm.
I could read ancient runes, but I couldnt, for the life of me, read the Divine Script.
The reason why I could use Divine Script for teleportation to Divine Realm was because I watched Creator God-sama and replicated his spell.
If I cant read the characters, then I cant use it for magic.
I may be like this, but fortunately, I have a reassuring ally.
Its no other than Luna, one of my wives.
Luna is also a transmigrated soul from the same world as mine, and she has a cheat skill that enables her to read anything.
Luna and I studied and researched Divine Script.
Thats how I acquired this ability.
Tame!
This time around, I poured a colossal amount of mana iparable to when I tamed Orga into the envement magic.
The magical circle contained hundreds of characters, all written in Divine Script.
With this, it no longer mattered whether shes a fiend; I could definitely Tame her.
Uughh!!
The woman seemed to be in pain.
Thats weird.
I could sense a power resisting Tame.
It was not the womans own power, but something elses.
I turned my consciousness to peer into the power that was sleeping in the depths of her body.
Since she was a fiend, it was only natural that exuded a hint of the Evil Gods aura, but I discovered that she possessed a lump of the Evil Gods mana within her.
Thats the thing that was interfering with my magic.
Its in the way, so
Holy Lance!!
I annihted that mass of power.
The power resisting the Tame spell weakened, and I was finally able to Tame this majin woman.
Because the mass of power from the Evil God disappeared, her strength became weaker.
And so, I used the strengthening form on her just like how I did with Orga.
Surprisingly, she swallowed almost 10 times the mana I gave to Orga.
As expected of a majin.
No, Im sure I had strengthened her a lot, so perhaps shes already as powerful as a demon.
She knelt before me.
I am Sitri. I pledged my loyalty to Danna-sama.
-
T/N: (Missed Chapter 2/15)Aruji-dono, still Master, but distinguishing it from Youkos Master (Onushi-dono, funny enough they have the same kanji but different readings) and Sitris Danna-sama. Oni are basically also ogre in English, so I just retained it.
And now I have a dilemma!! Warlock is male, right? Granted that Sitri is a demon mistaken for a warlock, what should I do with this address now?? And why didnt I think that majin could also be female, huh!? Uwuwuwand so, for the meantime, I just used Majin, the original reading, since Im using Oni anyway As in Majinboo~ Ugh Sorry guys for this ipetent trantorrrrr, this being my first ever project (>.Update: Uhhh, I totally forgot about this note. I already decided to stick to Majin in the end XD Thanks!
