Starting with the defeated female knight

Starting with the defeated female knight

Author: Multifunctional Repeater

Introduction:

"So you're saying that you're going to attack me just because I'm ugly?"

"Attacking me, the one who has always provided shelter and helped you through this age of ignorance?"

"Is there no justice left? Is there no law left?!"

The knight lady who came to subdue the excitedly waving tentacles looked disgusted.

Please don't spit on my clothes; it's a hassle to clean them afterwards.

"Also, please don't play dumb. Why do carefully selected female knights and mages come to attack you at this time every year... Don't you have any idea?"

"Tell me, are you going to follow the proper procedures or just accept defeat?"

"I'm in a hurry."

......

Years later, when facing the female knights, Grimm, sitting on his throne, would always recall that night when he first took in the defeated female knights.

"All I wanted was to find someone to teach me to read, what were you idiots thinking?"

"Also, next time please send a bigger one."

"I like big ones."

A serious farming story set in a magical world.

Really.

Related to the work: Character profiles (up to chapter 68):

I saw some readers in the comments section saying that it's easy to confuse the characters, and after thinking about it, I realized that's true. So I made a simple one-sentence profile, which interested friends can take a look at and add to.

Character Profile:

Edith Stewart:

A human, formerly a candidate for the Church's Holy Son, and now the manager of the Dawn Cathedral, responsible for managing and operating tentacle technology research and development. She has sensitive skin and is Elise's younger sister. She has been cultivated into a super tentacle fetishist by the tentacles and has developed her own exclusive personal tentacle outfit by feeding the tentacles with her own body.

Cecilia:

Human race, former chief knight of the church, ultimate straight woman of the Kongtong, beautiful in stats, evolved again after passing the triple tentacle test, and after obtaining the Qiangbo Armor, she can kill the ancient god alone. She has a very serious personality, but privately she is troubled by her weight. She yearns for a peaceful and beautiful pastoral life, and is essentially a country girl.

Tanya:

One of the original humans in the camp, a professional female warrior, strong but not excessive in combat. After being baptized by tentacles, she became a loyal tentacle believer. Currently, she assists Edith in managing the cathedral and acts as a physical education teacher. Her hobby is soaking in her private tentacle pool.

Ella:

Tanya found the child while searching for refugees. He is a half-orc with wolf ears, a wolf tail, and claws on his limbs. Otherwise, he is no different from a human. His mind and habits are closer to a wolf than a human. He has the ability to assimilate with shadows, hates taking baths, and likes having his stomach endoscope done by tentacles.

Morphia:

A survivor of the demonic tide, a fox-like half-orc with human hands and feet, except for the rest of his body, Fury. He has a serious personality, but is somewhat insecure about his half-orc identity. He is the ultimate barefoot doctor, a human encyclopedia with a little bit of everything, and doesn't mind being teased by tentacles at all.

Yves:

A survivor of the demonic tide, a human orphan, adopted and raised by tentacles, she later entered the Dawn Cathedral through her studies and is currently the chief tentacle technology researcher, catching up with Morphia in progress. Her hobbies are beautiful clothes and tentacles, especially special tentacle wedding dresses.

Vanessa:

Cecilia's adoptive mother, a humanoid ancient goddess, controls the healing industry within the entire church. She is actually quite wealthy, and has certain large parts. She dislikes stubborn people and enjoys taking revenge on humans... probably.

Elise Stewart:

The eldest daughter of the Stewart family, a human noblewoman, Edith's older sister, with the highest-ranking blood of honor flowing through her veins, a staunch advocate of classic bloodline theory, possessing considerable combat strength and outstanding management skills, she likes things to be well-organized, hates sticky tentacles, and finds them disgusting (according to her own words).

Sheila Valencia:

Valencia's 'scrap', a human, young and underdeveloped, covered in scars, with many of his internal organs decaying. He survived by being parasitized by a tentacle, but his condition is still not optimistic. His hobbies are his younger sister Grace and the tentacle inside him.

Grace Valencia:

Valencia's 'waste', a human, is the product of inbreeding. He is born photophobic, has crippled legs, and is albinistic, but has an optimistic and cheerful personality. His hobbies are his older sister and the tentacle master residing in his sister's body. He hopes that one day he can also be 'blessed' by the tentacle master.

Eyelight:

A survivor of the demonic tide who arrived with Morphia, Xiao Mingdeng is an eight-year-old bird-like beastman, 1.8 meters tall (nearly 1.9 meters tall in the last measurement). She is timid and shy. Because she was taken care of by Eve in the orphanage, she regards Eve as her older sister. Due to her vocal cords, she can only make 'coo coo' sounds. She enjoys collecting pretty little stones.

In the capital, she is an eternally pure silver moon, but when nestled in the arms of tentacles, she transforms into a whimpering little pig. She can seamlessly switch between these two forms and enjoys joking with tentacles—but it might not be a joke.

Uli:

A human, former vice president of the Mage Guild, now a magic teacher at Dawn City Cathedral, an older single woman who is a homebody.

A member of the orc race, she was originally the eldest sister of the Firestone tribe. Later, she moved to Dawn City with the Firestone tribe and met Lamp through some means, becoming Lamp's friend (and son).

Book 1: Chapter 1: Green

Man is a thinking reed.

Green couldn't remember where he had seen that quote, but he thought it was true.

Because he transmigrated into a thinking tentacle.

Reeds are judged by their roots, and tentacles are judged by their roots as well. If a person is a thinking reed, then, rounding up, the thinking tentacles certainly still belong to the human category.

Although he had never been a tentacle before, he had read quite a few related academic papers, so it didn't take him long to adapt to life as a tentacle.

Compared to animals, I seem more like a plant. Although I don't have a mouth for eating, I can survive and grow as long as I stay in a humid environment.

My regenerative ability is very strong. As long as I have enough nutrition, I can regenerate quickly after being injured. Even if I am bitten in two, I can recover into two completely new and complete 'individuals', and the consciousness will still be the same.

I initially thought controlling two bodies simultaneously would feel strange, but after actually doing it, I found it strangely familiar, like... my left and right hands?

The attempt at proactive self-division was successful; I can now proactively increase my own value.

[After increasing the quantity, I felt my thinking speed improved significantly, and I seemed to have more flexibility in controlling my body.]

Perhaps I can try more techniques now?

[Excellent, the tentacle mutation experiment was a success. Tentacles grown under different environments and conditions will possess different characteristics.]

[The fibers cultivated in humid environments are soft yet resilient; those grown in lake water have strong absorption capabilities; and some have absorbed the flesh and blood of wild beasts, resulting in significantly increased strength, resilience, and agility far surpassing others...]

[Success! I've used my tentacles to simulate vibrations, and it can make a 'sound'!]

Although I'm still some distance from being able to 'speak', it at least shows that I possess the ability to 'speak' and the potential to communicate with people!

However, when it comes to communicating with people...

Do humans really exist in this world?

Inside the dark and damp cave, tentacles with flowing eyeballs gazed at the stone tablet before them. Beside them were two dark tentacles, their tips covered with sharp teeth like the blades of a mantis, which, like the left and right hands, inscribed His thoughts on the stone tablet.

Or to put it more simply, it's like writing a diary.

It's not just because I have nothing better to do, but also because I use this method to continuously deepen and strengthen my 'memory'.

So that in the long period of solitude, one doesn't forget the fact that one was once human and turn into a tentacle incapable of even thinking.

If that doesn't work, I might have to go out for a walk on my own.

Although I don't know what this world is like or what dangers lie outside, I think that with the experience I've accumulated over the years, even if I encounter danger outside, I shouldn't be completely helpless.

As long as I can survive, even if I only have one tentacle left, I can easily make a comeback...

【Um? 】

The engraved tentacles stopped.

The tentacles, with eyeballs dripping from them, paused for a moment, then raised their heads and looked in the direction where the signal had been received.

According to the information transmitted back by the surveillance tentacles, something outside has invaded his territory.

And look at that outline...

[It looks like...a human?]

His gaze flowed silently.

Undercurrents were brewing.

......

"Lady Cecilia, I feel something is wrong."

"It's so quiet here."

The blonde girl held the ceremonial staff in her hands, and the robe she wore, which symbolized a church priest, was now not only filthy but also torn in many places.

Behind her were knights and soldiers, disheveled and exhausted, as well as civilians with their families, carrying various supplies and luggage, their expressions either terrified or numb.

The demonic tide came too fast and too fiercely.

In order to buy more time for the rear, the knights, led by Cecilia and who were supposed to be in charge of investigating the situation, had to face the demonic tide head-on.

Although he managed to survive by sheer luck and even saved a group of villagers who couldn't evacuate in time, his escape route had already been cut off by the demonic tide.

Left with no other choice, they had to change direction and enter this mountain range that the church had marked as 'forbidden,' but which the demonic tide would also not be able to enter.

"It's very quiet."

Cecilia nodded, her once beautiful face now filled with weariness, her golden pupils bloodshot and devoid of their former luster.

Even so, her hand remained on the hilt of her sword at her waist, keeping watch on her surroundings while maintaining a posture ready to engage in battle at any moment.

"Moreover, someone, or something, has been 'watching' us from the moment we came in."

"There's something..."

The blonde girl hugged the holy book tightly and subconsciously looked around.
