Monster Girl Development Master

"Let go of my master!!!"

[Fear Cry]

The young guardian knight charged into the enemy ranks like a whirlwind, leaving frost everywhere he went and causing all the enemies to fall—then, he crashed into an invisible wall.

"Hehehe."

A burst of mocking laughter rang out, and the Headless Horseman King picked up the released Zhuang Sen, put his arm around him, and sat back on the throne. Then the illusion shattered.

Only Johnson and Lydia remained, staring at each other blankly.

Chapter 111: Temptation

"Ledya, aren't you afraid of really being stripped of your bloodline?"

"Young Master, didn't you say that we should stay inside as long as possible?"

Zhuang Sen and Lydia stared at each other, then burst out laughing, leaving the onlookers completely bewildered. What had happened in the inheritance? Ange was especially curious, as this concerned the accuracy of the patterns she had summarized.

So Zhuang Sen briefly described what had happened in the inheritance, making Ange smug. Her theory seemed to be correct, after all, in order to "intimidate" Lydia, those headless knights had given up on exploiting Zhuang Sen. However, the others were more concerned that Lydia had actually managed to withstand what she feared most and even broke through to the current limit of the inheritance's progress, making her even more superhuman than Nia.

"So, what reward did you get?"

Nia asked curiously, and Lydia answered honestly, "There's no physical object, but my bloodline has improved a lot, and I'm not far from the second awakening. I've also gained two new abilities."

As she spoke, Lydia stood up, and a layer of solid ice appeared on her armor.

"This is the Frost Spirit Armor, which lasts for an hour. During this time, I am immune to frost damage and it's like wearing an extra layer of weightless armor. However, its actual defensive capabilities need further testing. The other one is called Vampiric Strike, which is said to allow you to absorb the enemy's life force to replenish yourself when you hit them."

The others were fine, just congratulating Lydia. Only Mira, who knew the bloodline best, was once again shocked – adding new skills to the bloodline besides awakening? What's the difference between this and giving a human an extra set of equipment?

Zhuang Sen noticed the shocked scholar, leaned over and pulled her into his arms: "What's wrong? Are you still upset because you didn't solve the problem? Or are you starting to feel useless again?"

Mira lowered her head dejectedly and snuggled into Zhuang Sen's arms: "Your bloodline is so strange! I feel like all my years of studying are completely useless!"

Furthermore, her bloodline limited her time outside the home and the amount she could demand from Zhuang Sen. It always felt like among Zhuang Sen's women, she ate the most and did the least. According to An Jie's theory, this was probably why she faced the "problem-solving" test—she worried that she had lost her strongest abilities in learning and research, which would lead to losing Zhuang Sen.

"Then let's start researching now." Zhuang Sen stroked Mira's cool face. "I thought scholars would get excited when they see the unknown. Or do you think I would give up on you?"

Zhuang Sen looked up at the crowd who had stopped their discussion and were looking over, and ruffled Hana's green hair with his other hand: "You too, once you're in my hands, you won't be able to escape even if you die."

"Can't you say something a little sweeter now?" Nia jumped up and kissed Zhuang Sen. "You used to say that all the time when we first met."

"Are you shy?"

"Young Master is so cute."

"Brother has this side to him too..."

"How about I make you some honey bread tonight to help you recover?"

Although he was joking, Zhuang Sen could clearly see the blush on their faces, so he forgave their teasing. He wasn't really feeling shy at all—it seems he still needs to work on his thick skin.

Zhuang Sen turned to Lady Liya, who was sitting alone opposite him, and began to change the subject: "Mother, do you think you can brew this potion?"

Lady Lia smiled and nodded, saying, "No problem, it's not particularly difficult. The materials are all available at the materials guild. I'll have someone deliver them in a bit. But why isn't the main material listed?"

Apart from Lydia and Johnson, the others pursed their lips, suppressing their laughter to avoid angering someone.

Zhuang Sen could only give him a vague answer: "I'll give it to you when I start making the medicine. Just follow the steps on it. We won't disturb your rest any longer. Goodbye."

Watching Zhuang Sen flee as if his life depended on it, Lady Lia's eyes flashed with doubt, and her heart sank even further. Dantalian and the others clearly knew, so why couldn't they tell her? It seems he's forgotten his mother once he has a wife, especially since she's not his biological mother…

Ok?

The melancholy Lady Lydia belatedly realized that there was a third person in the room besides herself and Lydia who hadn't left with Johnson: "Priestess Dantalian, is there something you need?"

Dantalian slowly sat down in the spot where Zhuang Sen had just been sitting. Her large, round buttocks greedily absorbed Zhuang Sen's warmth, making her smile even more serene and her demeanor even more graceful: "Lady Leah, I just wanted to talk to you a little about Zhuang Sen—you like him, don't you?"

Lady Leah's heart skipped a beat, but she forced herself to remain calm and said, "Of course I love my son."

Dantalian smiled and suddenly changed the subject: "Did you know that Mira's bloodline is very sensitive to blood? It can even distinguish the closeness of two people's bloodlines."

? !

Lady Lia was deeply shaken, but on the surface she remained even calmer: "What an amazing ability! Bloodline users are indeed powerful."

Looking at Lady Leah, who hadn't revealed a single detail, Dantalian's smile grew even gentler and deeper: "Lady Leah, some things can't be hidden. No matter how much you try to deceive yourself, it's useless. Just like the main ingredients of those potions, even if Johnson doesn't tell you now, you'll recognize them at a glance once you get them. Do you think that's necessary?"

Lady Leah frowned: "What exactly is that? What are you trying to say?"

Dantalian narrowed her increasingly alluring phoenix eyes and casually said, "The main ingredient is Zhuang Sen's essence, just like the potion we used for our second awakening, where the main ingredient was Zhuang Sen's blood."

"What--"

Even the usually composed Lady Lia broke down, a blush rising on her beautiful, fair face. She opened her mouth as if to spit, but didn't know what to say.

Seeing Lady Lydia's reaction, Dantalian felt even more confident and smiled, "As for why I said this, firstly, it's to prevent you from doing anything you'll regret tomorrow after you find out; secondly, do you think Zhuang Sen likes you?"

!!!

Lady Lydia unconsciously sat up straight, but her full, red lips remained pursed for a long time, most of the lipstick smeared away, revealing the flesh beneath. She just couldn't bring herself to say it. Because, because Lydia was here. Yes, although Lydia was trustworthy, she had promised Johnson she wouldn't reveal his identity.

Dantalian's eyes gleamed, she was already absolutely certain, and her words became even more measured: "Lady Leah, do you think love is more noble in this world, or is family affection more precious?"

Lady Liya remained silent for more than ten minutes before slowly saying, "No matter which is more noble, they should not be confused; that would be disrespectful to both sides."

Dantalian's smile widened. They hadn't guessed wrong; Lady Leah was indeed troubled by this, so the problem wasn't too serious. Otherwise, if Lady Leah truly only saw Zhuang Sen as a son, they would have had to find a way to persuade him.

"You're right, that's why I asked you, isn't it?"

Lady Lia paused for a moment, then said, "Priestess Dantalian, which do you think is more important, faith or love?"

Dantalian shook her head slightly, her tone gentle yet resolute: "Whether it's faith or love, people are the most important! If you worship the wrong god, even if you're as devout as a saint, you're still just an evil person. It's meaningless except for death. The same goes for love. What matters isn't whether you love someone or not, but whether they are the right person—whether they are my dear Zhuang Sen."

"The doctrine of the Church of Vengeance forbids married nuns from holding clergy, right?"

“Rules can be changed. If anyone disagrees, I’m also somewhat skilled in martial arts,” Dantalian chuckled. “Besides, I didn’t have a wedding with Zhuang Sen.”

After saying that, Dantalian stood up before Lady Lydia could say anything more: "I should go back now, otherwise I might not get any tonight. Lydia, remember to come quickly too, lest Mira 'accidentally' 'slips her tongue' and eat too much again."

Her voluptuous, full-figured body swayed away in the fragrant breeze, and the room fell silent. After a long while, a voice finally rang out: "Madam..."

Lady Leah glanced sideways at her chosen daughter-in-law, and waved her hand with a hint of resentment: "Go."

Chapter 112: The Angel of the Secretary

When Dantalian returned to Johnson's room, she was surprised to find that everyone was still wearing their clothes, and even Mira was sitting obediently. When she entered, Nia, Mira, and Angela also turned to look at her. The four of them exchanged glances and smiled at each other.

The conversation between Dantalian and Lady Lia just now wasn't just Dantalian's idea; it was the result of the four of them getting together—or more accurately, instigated by Nia. After all, they hadn't thought anything of it since they had assumed that Johnson and Lady Lia were mother and son. But after Mira accidentally pulled up Johnson's underwear, they slowly started to realize something was wrong.

Lady Liya was indecisive, and Zhuang Sen was obsessed with women, but the remaining women were not blind. In fact, they were all intelligent and naturally saw the complex feelings between the two, which were both subtle and obvious.

As for why they would want to add "competitors" to themselves, one reason is that they already have enough competitors, so one more won't make a difference. Besides, she is just an ordinary person now, and the fact that she can come to see Zhuang Sen twice already shows that her willpower is extraordinary. She can't take much more than that.

Secondly, without excluding their opponents, Dantalian and the others were happy to be good people. Just like that silly Hannah, if they hadn't pushed her from behind, she probably would have spent her whole life farming and then going back to her room to dig for food herself.

Finally, it was because of Zhuang Sen's identity. They had heard stories of unrequited love turning into hatred, and they didn't want it to happen to them, so this incident came about.

If it weren't for so many reasons, the monster girls wouldn't do such a thing. It's said that only Dantalian and Lamia have a strong possessive desire, but in reality, which monster girl doesn't want to have Zhuang Sen all to herself? Even if Nia is so "open," the premise is that Zhuang Sen is "her husband," and she "shares" him with her clan members "out of kindness." You see, if you break off her engagement, even if you don't interfere with her continuing to be with Zhuang Sen, do you see how anxious she would be!

……

Dantalian and the others exchanged glances quickly, then the priestess, who had played a crucial role, came up behind Zhuang Sen and "domineeringly" embraced him. Her heavy breasts pressed down on Zhuang Sen's head, and even some of her melons that had slipped down blocked his view.

It's getting dark.JPG

"Honey, are you going to rest tonight? I was just telling Lydia to come over soon."

Zhuang Sen rubbed against the plump, beautiful flesh on his back and laughed, "No, I'm just practicing my evolved bloodline—I evolved my bloodline while you were passing on the inheritance."

"It shouldn't take this long, right? Are we waiting for the medicine to take effect?" Dantalian said, glancing at Nia and Angel, especially the latter. She always claimed to have prepared medicine for Zhuang Sen, but eighty percent of it ended up in her own mouth, while the remaining twenty percent went to Nia. There was nothing she could do; Harpy was never known for her stamina.

"When did I take any medicine?"

Zhuang Sen slapped Dantalian's thigh with his backhand. The simple nun's dress could not hide the undulating flesh of her plump thighs, and drops of honey water seeped through the lace-trimmed triangle and fell onto the shiny black stockings inside the nun's dress.

"Then what are you doing?"

"This is a surprise I prepared for you, especially since I was waiting for you to come back."

As Zhuang Sen spoke, he took a small step forward, breaking free from Dantalian's embrace, switching his bloodline from the Unranked Angel to the Secretary Angel, and appearing in his original form.

In an instant, his height suddenly decreased, becoming almost the same as Nia's. A few streaks of fiery red were dyed in his black hair bangs, and a pair of wings that were quite large for his size extended from behind him. However, compared to the pure white wings of the angel without a title, the tips of these wings were also dyed fiery red.

His already fair skin became even softer and more delicate, almost like a baby's, with a rosy glow. His handsome face also became much younger, with baby fat appearing on his face. At first glance, he looked like a soft and adorable little boy. Especially with the change in his body shape, his original clothes naturally didn't fit anymore, hanging loosely and barely, revealing most of his left shoulder. His pants even fell directly to the ground, exposing his delicate and tender legs, which looked extremely tempting, especially compared to the still-grown Zhuang Sen!

"Sigh, I didn't expect the [Secretary Angel] to be even smaller than the Unranked Angel. But, that suits your taste just the way you want, doesn't it?" Zhuang Sen held the [Complete Book of Angels] in one arm and spun around in place. He originally wanted to show off, but he forgot that he wasn't wearing pants. When he spun around, his pert butt and big Zhuang Sen were completely exposed.

Rapid breathing filled the room, especially Dantalian's, which was the most intense. Her innate attraction to Zhuang Sen made her almost drool over him, wishing she could pounce on him immediately, pull him into her arms, drown him in her broad bosom, or even stuff him entirely inside her...

However, Dantalian did not indulge herself; she simply transformed back into her Lamia form, saving herself the trouble of taking off her clothes later.

"You're quite perceptive, Dantalian. I was just about to tease you a bit." Zhuang Sen patted the [Encyclopedia of Angels] in his hand. He had prepared one of the [Secretary Angel's] abilities, [Biological Shorthand], to punish the "reckless" Dantalian a little.

This ability can temporarily imprison any creature that attacks the [Secretary Angel] within a [Book Space]. Based on the [Secretary Angel's] understanding of the creature, it can launch a weakness attack within the Book Space. For example, if Dantalian had truly pounced on and ravaged poor little Zhuang Sen, Zhuang Sen could have imprisoned her there, letting her watch others toy with him while he couldn't even scratch her.

Unfortunately, I was not fooled.

"Dantrian, you're not allowed to act recklessly again." Zhuang Sen tried to put on a stern face, looking up at Dantalian, attempting to teach her a lesson. But seeing the charm and grievance on her holy and beautiful face, his heart quickly softened. But don't worry, the others hardened.

"But you didn't stop me, did you..." Dantalian softened her body. Lamia's body was extremely flexible, and she could easily assume a posture that surpassed that of humans. Just like now, Dantalian's lower body was still in place, but her upper body was directly wrapped around Zhuang Sen. Her two full, soft, snowy peaks pressed heavily on Zhuang Sen's back, directly crushing Zhuang Sen's idea of ​​continuing to interrogate him.

To resort to such despicable means, you wretched monster girl! It seems I have no choice but to take action. It's definitely not because Dantalian was right about something!

"Shut up, keep it in your mouth."

Zhuang Sen seemingly roughly grabbed the chin of the giant snake woman and pressed it down, while Dantalian obediently let the not-so-heavy force, in this awkward position, swallowed the giant Zhuang Sen, and the snake tail also folded and closed, completely wrapping Zhuang Sen in the snake tail. The smooth scales brushed against Zhuang Sen's tender skin, causing a warm current to surge in Dantalian's lower abdomen.

This willful attitude makes him even more like a child, which "Mom" really likes~

As for Zhuang Sen discovering her "little tricks"? She never intended to hide them from him; it would be strange if she hadn't been discovered. Ultimately, if Zhuang Sen truly had no feelings for Lady Liya, she wouldn't have done anything reckless. She simply wanted to help Zhuang Sen, not control him. Everything was based on Zhuang Sen's wishes; she and the others were merely helping to expedite things.

Well, now's not the time to think about that. My mind needs to be focused on absorbing Zhuang Sen's scent and affection~

The author says:

Author's Note: There was a small problem with the order of the plot. Originally, the evolution of Zhuang Sen's bloodline should have been written before the inheritance, but now the evolution step has to be skipped. Otherwise, the protagonist would have wasted the bloodline development potential of four people. Fortunately, it's not a big problem.

Chapter 113: The Alchemy Process (Bonus Chapter for Please Call Me Early Meow)

The next day, in the alchemy room of Glorious Manor.

The prepared ingredients were neatly arranged on the shelf, and two large pots were placed side by side on the stove. Everything was clean and tidy. Lady Lia was dressed casually, with black stockings faintly visible under her white long dress with cinched sleeves. She looked much more refreshed and lively, without the sadness and indecisiveness she had always shown.

When Zhuang Sen walked in, everyone felt a sense of relief.

Then he heard Mrs. Leah ask with a hearty laugh, "Johnson, have you prepared the main ingredients?"

As she spoke, Lady Leah glanced at the two small glass bottles in Zhuang Sen's hands. Each bottle contained a thin layer of white liquid, which looked rather simple and pitiful. However, Lady Leah, who already knew what it was from Dantalian's words, thought that Zhuang Sen was indeed a young man, able to leave so much after satisfying so many people in one night.

These two bottles together must contain about 200 milliliters...

Zhuang Sen felt inexplicably embarrassed, but since he was already there, he had no choice but to step forward and hand a bottle of Zhuang Sen's Essence to Madam Liya: "This is the main ingredient; just follow the steps for the rest."

Lady Leah took the bottle, opened it naturally, and smelled it, just like she was checking the quality of materials. However, even though she was mentally prepared, the strong smell emanating from the bottle still made Lady Leah's heart pound: "This smells a bit strange. Is it okay?"

"Uh, this is how it is, don't worry, I squeezed it fresh this morning... and picked it myself."

Zhuang Sen felt increasingly embarrassed. He knew that Dantalian had been communicating with Lady Leah without his consent, but he didn't know exactly what Dantalian had said. He still thought that Lady Leah was just concerned about the materials. But how he would behave with his own wife was one thing, but with outsiders, especially someone like his stepmother, he was too embarrassed to say anything.

Fortunately, Lady Leah did not give chase. Instead, she turned and went to the large cauldron she was using: "Alright, then I'll take care of little Nia's potion. By the way, why didn't little Nia and the others come along?"

“They’re not really capable of doing anything here, so they might as well go do their own thing…” Zhuang Sen sighed and started selecting the materials he needed. “Dantrian went back to the Temple of Aranta to see Bishop Rosa. Let’s see if we can persuade her to help. Nia said she’s almost finished with her rune research and wants to help us upgrade our armor and weapons. Mira doesn’t want to move in the middle of the day. Ange is dealing with the Merchant Guild and the Alliance. Hana… I originally wanted Hana to come and learn medicine, but she said she can’t leave the fields for the time being.”

Speaking of his wife, Zhuang Sen was wide awake. Listening to Zhuang Sen's eloquent and logical analysis, Madam Liya no longer concealed her jealousy and abruptly interrupted, "Zhuang Sen, bring me the materials too..."

Johnson hadn't really noticed Lady Lydia's change yet, because Lydia was also there, and Lady Lydia's tone and attitude were no different from usual, pure maternal love—so apart from these two, anyone else who frequently came into contact with them could see the problem.

Furthermore, Johnson felt that even if Dantalian was eloquent, she couldn't possibly persuade Lady Lydia in one go, could she?

Let's focus on brewing the medicine first, and then consider other things after we've killed that cheap old man.

After all, Lady Liya was a countess, so it was reasonable for him to be with the countess after he became a count, right? Thinking this, Zhuang Sen didn't notice the double standard in his thinking at all—he had changed his mind all at once, so why couldn't Lady Liya do the same?

Zhuang Sen carried a large amount of materials to the two large cauldrons. Lady Liya had already lit the fire and placed the alchemical liquid as the base. She looked at Zhuang Sen with an elegant smile and reached out to take the materials he brought: "Thank you, Zhuang Sen."

Her fair, soft fingers brushed across the back of Zhuang Sen's hand. The warm touch felt like lightning, making Zhuang Sen's heart skip a beat. A number of wicked thoughts suddenly popped into Xiao Deng's head, but when he saw Lady Liya seriously starting to process the materials, he wondered if he was overthinking things.

Little did he know, his gaze was completely noticed by Lady Lydia, bringing her a feeling no less intense than his own earlier... Lydia, who was guarding the corner, watched this scene from afar and sighed inwardly, "Poor young master, being manipulated by the lady."

It would be even better if the corners of her mouth weren't turned up so high.
