I'm a forest ranger, why would I enslave a succubus?

Chapter 505: Thanks and Recruitment

There is no point in working in isolation.

After Rhodes inactivated the plague in the medical station, he called the spider elf Yuna to clean up.

I went out for a walk with a cane.

After a night's rest, he was actually almost recovered, except that his skin still looked red and swollen.

As for the crutch, he just used it for show on a whim.

Went around a lot.

Rod came to Henry Farm and watched the workers feeding the animals, chewing them.

Although it was boring, he watched for a long time and was reluctant to leave.

"Rod! Why did you go out?!"

A familiar exclamation.

Rhode turned his head and saw the witch Demia leading the six dog-men group from yesterday towards them.

The witch lady came running over in a hurry.

I guess because they saw him using a crutch, they thought he had some serious injury or complication.

Today, the witch lady was wearing a velvet robe with a high-necked white shirt on the outside. The buttons on her chest jumped as she ran, and were extremely tight, as if they might burst at any time due to the weight.

"Ah, Demea."

Rhodes raised his eyebrows.

Just as he was about to explain, he saw a shadow flash across the ground, deliberately trying to trip him.

It is impossible to stumble.

But Rhodes still stepped on it deliberately.

Then his foot slipped, and his crutches lost their support. He was about to fall, and then he bumped right into Demia's arms.

"Oh!"

Demia cried out in pain and held his head tightly against her chest to prevent him from falling.

The body fragrance enters the nose, and it is as soft as a water ball.

Rhodes snapped his fingers and found an interesting idea from the countless thoughts in his mind.

——Since the fusion of the Plague Realm and [Judian's Ice Blade Realm] is conflicting and wrong, do I have the catalyst to force the situation to go wrong?

The answer is yes.

The [Wrong Spirituality] produced for the first time by [Soul-Shaking Blade]!
"Ms. Terry! What are you doing!?"

Demia complained.

She was not blind. When she saw the shadow on the ground, she naturally knew that it was the succubus's naughty trick.

But then I felt the hot breath on my chest, passing through the soft cracks and crevices, and my heart couldn't help but feel soft.

The baby's chubby face also turned pink.

Rod raised his head from her chest.

He quickly wiped away his refreshed look and pretended to be embarrassed.

"Sorry, that guy acted up last night and I punished him. I think he's having a little tantrum now."

He glanced down.

I saw Terry's little face showing in the shadows, with a knowing and flattering giggle on her face.

snort.
This guy probably wanted to help speed up the progress between Rhodes and the girl in order to gain forgiveness.

Rhodes didn't bother to care about her.

"You too, why did you come out when you couldn't even stand still? Where are Callisto and Yuna?"

".Let's not talk about that for now, what happened to them?"

He nodded at the dog-men team behind him.

The gray-haired dogman Nick and the dogwoman with a rotten face who were exhausted yesterday have recovered a little, but their faces are still pale.

They tied up Mickey, who was affected by the Black Dragon Dagger, and brought him here.

These people did not dare to step forward when they saw Rhodes looking at them.

They all knelt down and kowtowed, on the one hand to express their gratitude, and on the other hand to apologize.

These people were abducted since childhood and don't understand the ways of the world. They only know this method.

"They insisted on coming with me to apologize, and I had no choice but to let them come."

Demia said helplessly.

"Mr. Rhodes, please don't blame Miss Demia. We were the ones who insisted on doing this. And this is the agreed-upon apology. Please keep it. This is all we can muster right now, and we'll make up for it later. We're very sorry!"

talking.

Nick, the gray-haired dogman, stood up tremblingly and handed over a heavy small bag.

Rhodes took it and weighed it.

It is estimated that there are only about two hundred gold Aarons in total.

For a small team with only two seventh-level people, it can be said that they are completely poor.

They couldn't even afford their magic bags, and the weapons they were wearing were even the broken swords that Rhodes had broken yesterday.

"."

Rhodes hesitated for a moment.

He said to them, "I'm short of men to fight the dragon in Coral Bay. Would you like to come?"

"Come!"

Nick's face showed hatred and anger.

He had already learned from Demia that Mickey's condition was caused by the influence of the Black Dragon Dagger.

How could he not hate it!
Rhodes threw the small bag in his hand back to him.

"This is a deposit. The money for apology will be deducted from your salary later."

Nick was stunned for a moment: "But."

"Why are you being so fussy? I'm telling you, our deal is a one-time one. After we resolve Coral Bay, we'll have nothing to do with each other anymore."

The dog man had no idea that the ranger in front of him was deliberately helping him.

I was immediately moved, my nose felt sore, and I almost cried.

He knelt again.

Rhode ignored him and walked into the forest with his cane. He had to try [Wrong Spirituality].

Demia and the dog-men behind them said a few words of farewell and comfort, then trotted over.

Whisper.

"Rosalia sent a secret letter, Rod."

"Oh?"

The Tooth Fairy Rosalia was forcibly recalled to Wind City a month ago. She gets along well with Demia here, and it is said that they have been keeping in touch through letters.

"She said they received news from Windwind City that the front lines at Eselon are short of manpower. The Igo Cult has formed an oversight team and may send knights to various locations to recruit combat forces."

"No, does Eseron have the spare power to forcibly recruit soldiers?"

"Don't underestimate Esserlon. Although he's a sick tiger now, he's still a tiger after all. The various knight orders within him vary greatly. Some are good at monitoring officials, investigating crimes, and suppressing rebellions, but are not suitable for fighting on the front lines."

understood.

Like the secret service agencies like the East and West Factories.
"You mean we might be drafted?"

"I personally think it's possible, especially if we can successfully deal with Coral Bay. The bards will definitely sing about it, you know, under the fame."

Rhodes smiled:
"What do you think? After all, you are a much higher official than me, and I am just a small forest ranger."

Demia turned serious. "I don't care about Eselon. I only care about Miss Daphne. If she hadn't taken me in, I would have been a dead body on the roadside. Before she left, Miss Daphne asked me to protect Quartz Town, and I will never go back on my word."

Rhode also sighed: "It's a pity that the so-called [Heart of the God] has never been found."

The noble lady had a kind and gentle personality.

From a friend's perspective, Rhodes also had a good impression of her.

He would ask about the [Heart of God] wherever he went, but no one had ever heard of it!

"After all, it's something even the Argyle family can't find. Perhaps it's all just a random prediction from the Half-Deer Elder. Perhaps, because they couldn't find a way to save Miss Daphne, the Argyle family seemed to have reached some kind of agreement with the Ego Cult, leading them to head to the front lines without hesitation."

"Is this so"

As soon as I heard about Yigo religion.

Rhodes began to feel sick, even though these guys hadn't appeared in Dusk Hills for a long time.

evening.

Ranger's Hut.

After receiving the elf Callister's injury assessment, Rhodes was finally able to return to his own cabin.

of course.

A certain succubus in a punished state is still not allowed to enter.

at this time.

Rod lay on the animal hide sofa that had become discolored from excessive cleaning, without turning on any lights.

After all, right in front of him was a [Furnace of All Things] that shone with orange flames, which was enough to illuminate the not-so-big forest ranger's hut.

Not a moment longer.

Rhodes' eyes lit up.

The message refreshed on the panel:
[Smelting successful]

【Name: Ice Maggot Mother】

[Details: A natural spirit with simple intelligence, but its state is by no means a naturally occurring spiritual creature. It is an erroneous creature that should not have been born into this world.

After absorption, it strengthens "Judian's Ice Blade Domain" and gains the following effects:
Fertile Ice Blade: Each time cold damage is dealt, the "Necrotic Fester" status is added, and the target's next healing effect is reduced by 25%.

Incubator of Plague: Creatures killed by the ice blade will explode with 1 to 4 ice maggots, which will automatically attack the nearest warm creatures. The possessed creatures can trigger an "ice maggot outbreak".

Plague Siphon: Every creature within the Ice Blade Domain will be absorbed, restoring vitality, spirituality, and magicka to the caster. The absorption speed depends on the class gap between the two parties.

Howling Ice Tree: A "Howling Ice Tree" grows every five minutes within the Ice Blade Domain. Each tree increases the Ice Blade's strength by 5%, and consumes 50% of the caster's spiritual energy for forced growth.

【Evaluation: 62 points】

"."

Is this a bit too close to the plague?
And maggots and stuff.

Doesn't that seem to be in keeping with my status as a respectable person?

Ugh.
If it's not decent, then it's not decent.

After all, it was obtained by spending the only remaining 50 points of error spirituality, and there will be no more.

Rhodes pinched the half-palm-sized ice maggot mother body, not caring about it rubbing against his palm to express intimacy.

Crush it suddenly.

Its skin is a thin, tough ice. Once force is applied, a large mass of frost and yellow-green viscera-like substance will burst out.

Rod suppressed his nausea and absorbed it into his spirituality.

Not a moment longer.

He felt that attached to the heart in his chest was an ice maggot mother body that looked identical to his heart, but was made up of spirits.

Look at the panel again.

[Judian's Ice Blade Domain] becomes +4.

“That’s quite a lot.”

He shook off the ice chips on his hands.

Rhodes stood up and stretched, and was just thinking about whose house to spend the night at when someone knocked on the door.

After a moment's reflection, I realized it was Terry.

"come in."

"hey-hey."

Ty Lee smirked as she pushed the door open and walked in.

She is a young girl today, wearing a pure dress, with no fancy details on her chest, just an ordinary bulge.

"Master, Terry is very obedient. She hasn't bothered me for food all day."

"Well, come here and do it yourself. I won't bother you." Rhodes sat down again.

"Oh"

The succubus knew that her master was angry and did not dare to act coquettishly.

He came to me obediently and sat on the carpet in front of me.
