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

Chapter 773 News, Argyle, and Peace (The End)
The end of July should have been unbearably hot, but the upgraded forest seemed to have a certain ability to regulate the temperature.

There is always a refreshing coolness when you are near or in it, so it doesn't make you feel stuffy.

Perhaps it's because this place isn't far from the Munster Sea area of ​​Coral Bay.

all in all.

It's much better than the sweltering region of my previous life, where the temperature was consistently above 30 degrees Celsius and the humidity was always above 60% or 70%.

Moreover.

The magical rituals performed by Calliste included some form of sunshade.

The girls digging below felt even less heat.

"So, you're just going to sit here with your legs crossed and watch the girls work?"

Calliste looked over coldly.

Then she saw the dog lying on the grass, his head resting on Vivian's lap, listening to Yuna read the newspaper to him.

Then he would occasionally glance at the girls shoveling soil with a smile on his face.

Judging from their gaze, it was clear that it extended to their hips, waists, and chests that swayed with their movements.

It's too obvious.

"You were the ones who said not to use too much energy and power when excavating the mud tablets. As an invincible ninth-order cultivator, I'm obviously using too much power and stimulation."

"Humph."

Rod shifted his position and rolled over, pressing his cheek against Vivian's smooth, slightly cool thigh.

A faint scent of grass and trees wafted into my nose, both fragrant and soft.

In the peripheral vision.

Bond, Thirteen, Tyrion, Naga Eve, and Amy the Orc—these pure spiritual warriors wielded their shovels with incredible speed.

The surrounding area was piled up layer upon layer with soil and grass clippings.

of course.

There are also those like Terry and Chris, the banshee, who slack off and take it easy.

The former dug a shallow shovelful and then struck various poses toward Rhodes.

The latter simply leaned on the shovel handle and started chatting with people, glancing at Rod every now and then, seemingly talking behind his back.

Penny didn't slack off.

However, the ghoul mage's physical strength is a major weakness.

Soon he was drenched in sweat, and it seemed that he had secretly taken off his undergarments, tearing the collar all the way to his shoulders and arms.

So much so that every time he bent over, a large part of his figure-eight shape would be exposed, swaying towards Rhodes.

It has a unique flavor.

After digging for a while, the girls started to sweat.

Sweat glistened on her skin, soaking through her thin clothes, creating another beautiful sight.

Especially Eve and Cecilia.

The former, residing in the Mirror Desert, naturally favored exposing his navel, especially in front of Rhodes.

Now she's stripped down to just a black camisole, revealing large expanses of snow-white skin.

Eve was, after all, a princess of her clan, and was originally unwilling to do such a thing, but when she heard that it involved digging up the seal of the gods, she immediately became interested.

The latter was more conservative, wearing a short-sleeved shirt.

But Tifflin was sweating a lot, his clothes soaked through, clinging to his shallow abs and his youthful, cute bra, exuding a youthful vibe.

Her smile is so bright and sunny that it's hard to look away.

As for Number Thirteen and Bond.

With their parents, Calliste and Xiao Ke, by their side, these two had already changed clothes twice; how could they allow a certain lecherous forest ranger to peek at them?

of course.

The surrounding magical ritual had a concealment function, so only Rhodes and the girls could see it.

"Ah, that feels so good~~"

Rhodes sighed and took Vivian's hand, placing it on his face.

It's cool and soft.

"The next item is the headline of the Snowhill Evening News."

Beside her, the clear, melodious voice of the spider-like spirit Yuna could be heard reading aloud.

Titles like "The Knight of Light Returns! The Era of Religious Interference Ends, His Majesty the King Issues a 'Decree of Faith Purification'!"

"The Night of the Bloodstained Sanctuary: Unveiling the Ego Cult's Money-Making Network and Brain Sacrifice Case This Year"

The true identity of the Knights of Light has been revealed! Scholars have discovered that their emblems closely match those of the ancient Aetheron Dynasty's Royal Guard!

The Perils of Blind Faith? People Recall How the Ego Cult's "Indulgences" Drained the Last Pennies from the Poor!

A Masterpiece of Decapitation Strategy: Analyzing the Surprise Attack Tactics and Strength Levels of the Light Knight 'Gorgon'

It seems this matter is taken too seriously.

The newspaper didn't publish anything as frivolous as Rod's previous major news stories.

With the destruction of the Ego cult, the negative news that had been suppressed began to emerge one after another.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that their numbers are too numerous to mention.

While thinking.

The ritual shield was activated, opening an entrance, and the witch Demia walked in.

She spotted Rod at a glance and gave a wry smile: "You."

Rod beckoned to her: "Come here and fan me!"

Dimia ignored him and straightened her face: "Daphne and the Isabella Argyle family are here, just outside the ceremony."

"."

The Argyll family is controlled by the Ego Cult. Because their bloodline transforms curses into amplified combat power, they have been at the center of the battlefield for the past six months, acting as a meat grinder.

He killed countless people.

This is why Rhodes has not received a response since he sent the letter.

Rhodes sighed.

Get up from Vivian's lap.

Follow Dimia out of the ceremony.

Then they saw about thirty people kneeling on the grass, with Daphne's sister Isabella leading the way.

Her armor was tattered, and one of her arms had been replaced with a brass prosthetic.

It's not just her.

Most of the area behind them bore various signs of broken swords and magical damage, but their fierce aura only increased.

You can tell at a glance that they are an incredibly strong team.

A year and a half later.

Rhodes also saw that lovely girl, Daphne, again.

His appearance has hardly changed.

But he sat lifelessly on the carefully laid-out cushions, his eyes vacant, his skin pale, like a doll.

"Please, Lord Luo."

"No need to say more."

Rhodes's [Sword of No Thought] slid down out of thin air, its white light scattering brilliantly like flowers.

Like rain, it affected all the members of the Argyll family.

Everyone shuddered, immediately realizing that their spiritual creation had shattered.

Some people were so moved that they covered their faces and wept.

Rhodes looked at Daphne, but still didn't react at all.

Isabella looked up, staring blankly at the sky filled with white sword light, remaining motionless for a long time.

"Is this actually swordsmanship that a human can use?"

"Stop sighing, what's wrong with your sister?"

"Daphne was the first recipient of a spiritual artifact. At that time, the spiritual artifact creation technology of the Ego Church was not yet perfect, which resulted in the spiritual artifact fusing a part of Daphne's soul."

"Therefore, the Heart of God is required?"

"Yes, at first we believed the prophecy of the Half-Deer Elder and thought it was a plant. That's why we went in the wrong direction."

Speaking of which, the Argyll family has had a pretty tough time.

Despite their best efforts to save Daphne, they failed and were instead tricked by the Ego Cult into planting their spiritual creations.

Rod didn't waste any words.

He took out the metal brick, "Heart of the Gods," and gently patted Daphne's head.

"Get well soon, little one. I hope you'll be just as adorable as before when we meet again."

And this time.

Daphne slowly raised her head to look at him, letting out a low, whimpering sound.

Isabella's expression changed instantly, and she pounced on him with wild joy.

"Daphne? Daphne is responding?! For almost half a year, Daphne hasn't shown any reaction to the outside world." She suddenly looked up at Rhodes.

Rhodes was also taken aback: "Perhaps it's because of the [Heart of God]?"

"No, no. Dwarven items don't work unless activated. Mr. Rhodes! I'd like to take Daphne to the Windwall Forest for rest and treatment! Just the two of us, is that possible?"

"Why not use Quartz Town?"

It's not that I'm unwilling.

Now that the Igor Clan has been destroyed and the sealing clay tablets are gone, he can finally relax and is planning to fire cannons in the forest day and night.

Suddenly there were two unrelated girls.
"Please, Mr. Rhodes, for Daphne's sake!"

Seeing that Isabella had gone to such lengths.

Rhodes had nothing to say and could only agree.

We chatted briefly for a bit.

Calliste stepped out of the ceremony and nodded to him.

The meaning is quite simple: the clay tablets have been unearthed.

Let Dimia take them to town to settle in for the night.

Rhodes then followed Calliste back into the ceremony.

"If I'm not mistaken, two more girls have joined the forest?"

"That's what the elf lady said coldly."

"They're recuperating."

"Heh, I really don't understand why so many women are attracted to a stinky man like you."

"You are too. Speaking of which, it seems I won't be able to stay with you for much longer. Human lifespan is limited. How about you let me enslave you once?"

"wishful thinking."

The elf paused for a moment, then continued speaking coldly.

We arrived at the edge of the deep pit.

Rod smiled as he looked at the clay tablet covered in unknown writing in the deep pit.

Fabio, hanging from the tree, screamed, "There's still a chance to turn back! Rhodes! Bury him back in!"

"is it?"

Rod grabbed it with one hand.

[Wriggling, rotten placenta] · [Boiling Bone and Blood] +56!

Bone and Blood Boiling was originally a demonic skill that consumed spiritual energy and blood to increase resistance.

However, with the blessing of the artifact [Wriggling Rotten Periphery], it directly transforms into a god-level skill.

It's not just limited to resistance.

It has not only affected the authority over the domain!
A massive vortex of spiritual energy surged into the sky.

[Bone and Blood Boiling +56] · [Plunder Domain: 337%]!
Furthermore, there is the [Dark Plunder], which possesses the ability to amplify the plundering domain and has previously assisted Rhodes in plundering!
The air jolted suddenly.

The powerful suction force pulled the mud slab in place!

At this moment, the clay tablets began to shake violently, and the overflowing dust transformed into faces of fear and panic.

"Do not!!!"

"That...that man?!"

"The plan has been leaked!! Why?!?!"

"Rose?! Is that you, Rose?! I can smell your scent!! Did you leak it?!"

The crystallized rose tree battle spirit appeared behind Rhodes.

The Rose Goddess, curled up like a puppy, trembled in terror and couldn't utter a single word.

Fabio's eyes widened: "Why...why? Even high-ranking gods are no match for him? What is the point of my protection then?"

Not long after.

The looting is over.

More than fifty sparkling orange flames, imbued with divine light, floated in Rhodes's hand.

The mud slab shattered completely with a snap.

Rhodes let out a long breath.

I felt as if the gloom that had been hanging over my head for so long had finally dissipated.

Yigo religion.
Igor tribe.
Hero candidate.
Bahadur
Even from the Fourth Age back to the First Age, and all the way to the present-day high-ranking evil gods.
It's all finally resolved.
At this time.

Calliste suddenly turned around, leaped into Rhodes' arms, and kissed him deeply.

A pair of lips moved stickily and smacked, then reluctantly parted.

Calliste's ears turned bright red as she looked down at the ground: "As an elf, I made a promise to die with you, and I will not break my word. At most, I just don't want to be an elf who dies young, not because I'm attached to you!"

Rod was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening.

It turns out that the fairy lady's response was to enslavement.

He gave a wry smile: "Then I'll go?"

"Whatever you want, but don't expect me to like you that much."

A vibrant pink glow.

[Subject of Enslavement 20: Calliste]

[Obedience: 124]

【.】

Rhodes couldn't help but smile.

124?

You really like me, don't you?
"Ah!!! You two were secretly kissing again!!"

Terry's strange scream rang out, "I want a kiss too! I want a kiss too! But since the stinky elf has already taken the top spot, I'll reluctantly kiss the bottom instead~~~ Hehehehehe—"

Panting, Penny quickly added, "Then I want to kiss Master's right hand! Master's right hand smells the best!"

Cyril blushed and said, "Then I'll kiss Terry together. Anyway, Terry's mouth is too small to kiss everyone."

"You little lecher, where do you get so many tricks up your sleeve! Those are mine!"

Bond pulled Tracy over and they both hugged Rhodes's legs, laughing loudly, "First come, first served! It's for Tracy and me!"

Trish was stunned for a moment: "I...I didn't mean to kiss you!"

Xiao Ke said, embarrassed and angry, "Bond! A girl shouldn't say that!"

Eve planted the shovel in the ground, her eyes shining.

"Stop fooling around! Rhodes, save your best and strongest divine sparks for me! After reaching the ninth rank, I'm going to become the Naga God!"

Meanwhile, Chris, the banshee who had disappeared without anyone knowing, suddenly spoke up in the Chain of Distant Words.

[Chris: Master! I've discovered a new way to make money! Invest two million in me! I'll definitely double it within a year!]

at the same time.

The other girls, who weren't present, seemed to have made a pact to speak at the same time in the Chain of Distant Words.

[Selena: We don't need to hide things now. I plan to build a magic ring factory in Coral Bay.]

[Witch Cat: Um... Master, Mimi and I had a dream about you a few days ago. Can you come and see us?]

[Naulin: Rhodes! I've found the materials for the next dragon body. Could you please help me again? Oh dear, I just want to fulfill your wish as soon as possible, why are you interfering with mine?!]

[Sharon: Demia's looking after Daphne tonight, wanna come over? She's in Demia's room.]

Vanessa: Come to think of it, didn't you say last time that I could drink your blood?

[Demia: Rod, I also want to take care of Miss Daphne. Could we live together in the forest?]

[Lily: Rhodes! I've found a burial site for smuggled gods! Let's go on an adventure together!]

Hera: I want to get pregnant when it rains, what do you say? Remember to bring me food and water when you come to see me; it will probably last about ten days and ten nights.

[Lillian: Little Rod, when will you come to Mirror Desert again? Auntie misses you a little.]

Hailey: I've come to play with you~~

Rosalia: Are you kidding me? A high-ranking official in Atheron actually wants to build a statue of you.

[Ona: I asked around, and it seems that maintaining physical purity does indeed mean remaining chaste.]

[Mistra: The threat from the other dimension is still there. You need to come up and replenish my 'Creation Dew' regularly, Father!]

Terry shoved Calliste aside with a thud, and the latter, too lazy to argue with her, stood aside with her arms crossed and a cold expression.

The succubus's actions can be seen as initiating a struggle for ownership of the Ranger's embrace.

Almost all the girls rushed forward.

Rhodes was pushed to the ground and replied to the message from the Chain of Grievances.

While listening to the girls' noisy chatter, I felt the fragrance and softness of the girls in my arms.

The sun is shining brightly.

The lights illuminated the playful scenes during the ceremony.

Rod smiled, feeling the warm and peaceful atmosphere.

It is foreseeable
This situation will continue for a very long time.
