-Silas POV-
The Bedroom was in a castle the bed itself was double king size. With all this room Karl was hugging me from behind. In the morning I reset the wagon to leave. Karl took a liking to Entai & Nieves and they like her too. With her ability she can communicate with the horses. Karl was in the coach lead of the horses as we exit.
"Silas-sama, What are we going to do?" (Karl)
"Like I told mom we will be going to Tarrion kingdom in the west. In the castle city there an auction house and the B-class labyrinth" (Silas)
"That's sound like fun" (Karl)
"We will stay about a month. What we need is some money. There are tons of valuables in the vault but nothing of current currency. So the auction house will help us, & I am a villain so we will stop at the dark auction. I will have to organize everything to a point. There are somethings that will destroy kingdoms if misuse so keep them out of their hands." (Silas)
"Understood Silas-sama" (Karl)
We continue on this road without any problems for the day. This road go throught the plains with nothing anywhere. I dusk we set up a tent to hide the vault door. Karl was caring for the horses while I look throught the eons of collection. From fallen kingdoms from any world. These places became stories of myths and legends.
After my kingdom vanish from history without any ruins call it vengeance. I want a chance to harm Shin cause he torn down my remake of the castle I grow up in. I don't have a ego but my scorn last forever. My elder borther is in a cell somewhere in here body and soul.
What is needed at this time is a list that can tell me whats here. Acting to my will a book appear in front of me. Within this book there are over a thousand castles and kingdoms of many styles in here. The one we sleep in is the biggest and closes to my lost castle. I need to make room the map in back of the book show the size bigger then the void.
The book had an index that will flip pages and highlight things I need. So the first search is for something with storage that fit of infinite size. It give me a cabinet that was 153x153y60 cm with 64 drawers of 18x18 cm that a drawer can hold 1000 items. Each cabinet full can hold 64,000 items. There was 100 thousand of the this cabinets.
I found a place in the basement of my castle to keep these cabinets. I place the cabinets in lanes of 22 cabinets with 10 back two back then one at the ends. First end cabinet will be my treasury with the first row was for current currency. Sense I had none I will just mark them for the type of coins that will go in. Next row for past currency then the third row valuable minerals and so on. After the new treasury I move on to my manga & none soul figurines it took the cabnet on the other end.
The Armory took 3 cabnets, Navigation cabnet was full of maps of old, The four Lots cabnets was full of vehicles for land, sea, sky, and void, The five Gallery cabnets was full of that had Artwook of old, A cabnet was use to store seeds of all the plants in the Garden. Three cabnet for raw materials from bellua & mediocris, and last three of this lane was for knick knacks like toys, games and other forms of entertainment.
The Library took one lane and the buildings took two other lanes. Then all others were fulled with the extras. I made 1000 lanes of cabnets and the ones that weren't use was put into a cabnet. With the space not need the vault size shrink to what was needed.
As I was putting things into the cabnets it time to fix this place how I like it. First was to redesign the inside of this castle. Using the paintings, statues, pottery, mannequins wearing uniform armor of many kingdom's armies, and drapes for each hallway, I don't know what to day with the rooms for others I kept them bare.
In the throne room was a chair on top of some steps under a canopy. Mannequins wearing armor from my old kingdom on the sides. Two statues one of me in my first life and the other made of my Demon Lord self on the side of the throne. There some pillers, some crystal chandeliers, red silk carpet, & my elder brother's cage hanging from the ceiling. The bars of the cage stop any noise from escaping.
There a reading room I fulled with books and maps. A kitchen to feed a army I fulled with cooking gear. A workroom with all my tools for any crafting needed. The outside was eight kilometer in each direction to the wall. The Castle itself was two kilometer. I place a garden with five floors with climate control for plants that grow only in the tundra or desert. I plant everything inside and speed up time to skip some months and lifecycles.
I place was a bath house with many style of baths of each world. The main tub was a heating pool with a natural tropical feel environment and waterfall. So this was a place to wash & relax. Last I place an royal stall in the yard for the horse. Karl and the horses where upset of the sudden change.
All the stuff I use were part of the extra pile. With that and what I put into a bag for the auction remove only 1% of the plie. Another percent of the more illegal stuff was put into a bag for the dark market. One thing I make sure of everything inside was from earth made by human.
I finsh with the sorting and fix things how I like so time for a bath. Karl join in right now it look like a child and his mother taken a bath. The sound of the waterfall was relaxing. Then we head to the bedroom to sleep for the next day of traveling. Before the sun was up the tent and the vault door was put away.
Later that day we enter a smaller farming village call Irhorn. We found a inn with stalls to stay at. Karl is getting a little spoil cause this room was better then the one at the orphanage. Yet she hated it and want to go back to the castle. I told her to stay at the inn. I left to check out the village it look like there was a town meeting.
"My child was taken" "My field was ruin" "Our house was torn down" "We have to do something" "YEAH" (Random Villagers)
"People please I put a request to the Adventure Guild. I even heard two travelers arrive earlier" (Village Leader)
"I think you are talking about me. I'm an adventurer but I didn't come for the request" (Silas)
"Thats okay sir. I will contact the Guild later so come with me." (Village Leader)
The crowd of villagers were cheering as I follow the Village Leader. The Village Leader's house was bigger then the homes. We were sitting in a meeting room. With a table in front of us as we sit on a couches cross from eachother. The Leader's wife give me some tea.
"Thank you. so what been going on here" (Silas)
"It started in winter of last year animals in the woods just vanish. Then foods in storage was then. The livestook and pets went in spring. The destruction of the fields start in fall. Just a week ago a baby was taken from its crib. And last that woman child was taken today. All this was done without anyone seeing what did it." (Village Leader)
"Thanks to that I know what we are dealing with. My partner and I will leave soon. See ya sir" (Silas)
If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
"Thank you so much Kid." (Village Leader)
I return to the room at the inn. Karl was being a good girl sitting on the bed.
"Welcome back Silas-sama" (Karl)
"Karl get on your fighting gear. There is a bellua preying on this people." (Silas)
"Yes, Silas-sama" (Karl)
Later we were deep in the woods. This clearing would give Karl room to swing her sword. I took out a Honey Bait it took sometime but they show up. Things that look like drops of clear water came out of the trees and ground. Their were many of different sizes. There are a good hundred and the biggest was the strongest of them.
The big one had a human body inside being dissolve like food in a stomach. The hands, feets, and head were eaten to the bone. Tips of the fingers and toes bone were breaking apart. From there the layers of the body could be seen, Where the only place there still have skin was the core. This poor person was the missing child that was female.

So this Slime had reach fifth rank. Slimes were seen as weakest even with other bellua. The reason why is the defense of a slime is nonexistence. Thats one way to see it another way to see it. All of them are spawn with the
This one gain the
"Karl this is the first time using any weapons. Your
"Understood, Silas-sama" (Karl)
The slimes fell from the trees on top of us. I throw bombs into air after lighting them off of my armor. Taking down all of them like I say nonexistence defense. Karl use her great sword with one hand mowing down the slimes. This was less of a battle and more of a massacre. Karl hit a fe...many trees leaving the area in carnage of slime parts and splinters.
The last one was the fifth rank Slime. There maybe none defense but its movements where faster then the others. A fifth rank Slime is given a new move call Tentacle. Karl was blocking the new arms of the slime with her Blade Shield. As the HP went down we keep attacking. Then I use the blank card to capture this slime with
The battle was over leaving this part of the woods deforest and bellua's material everywhere. I use another Honey Bait to draw in any hide ones but there was none. We gather the materials then it came down to what to with the body. We could take it back back to the mother as is. This will be somewhat heart breaking.
"Karl use your
"WHAT Silas-sama do I have to that just sick in many ways" (Karl)
"The kiss is like how a mother help their childern feel better when they get hurt. If you want to curse someone give it to the gods. That remind me to warn you weird things can happen with ability so don't kiss anything. Unless your going to give it a miracle" (Silas)
"Silas-sama that means we can never kiss eachother right. This life had just became a curse." (Karl)
"No if its out of love or lust your
With the look of disgust she kiss the forhead of corpse. The body was regenerating what was last lost from the time spent inside the slime. Now what lay there was a seven year old girl. She need some clothes so I got them out of what I was going sell. Cause this clothes were still to big I gave her the amulet with
The clothes were a cute white sundress with blue pants underneath and a red long sleeve vest over the sundress. This will work I had Karl carry this girl back to the village. As we were walking the girl was wiggling.
"Let go, let me go, let me go" (Child)
"Karl drop her. She want to walk on her own." (Silas)
"Who are you people? Where am I? I was attack by a bellua is this the afterlife?" (Child)
"Child, my master was sent to defeat that bellua. Your second life is thankful to him." (Karl)
"Eh! sorry thank you lady's master" (Child)
"Don't thank me. I just didn't want to carry your corpse back to your mother." (Silas)
"Wow your powerful too give life like its nothing" (Child)
"It wasn't me and ability doesn't equal strength. Let go your mother is waiting" (Silas)
"Ah" (Child)
The three of us went on to the village. The mother was crying over the girl while thanking us. We enter the village leader's house. I put the jelly of the slime on to the table. That is useful for making potions or rubber. You can't eat this jellly or it will eat you from the inside out.
"Thank you adventurer. You gave us a happy ending at the end. I can't believe it was a slime that cause all these problems" (Village Leader)
"Even the weak mouse can kill a powerful god if fates allow it. That slime was an abnormal those types are the hardest to deal with." (Silas)
"Yes they are sir. Inside this bag is the money for taking the job." (Village Leader)
I put up the bag and the both of us start to head out. I turn back to look at him.
"In the end a job is a job. happy ending nor not" (Silas)
Later we return to the room at the inn til it got dark. I had Karl to stay in the inn as I leave for intercept the one that stay in the village. The fifth rank was big but not big enough for one that been around for two years. I saw it on the map this one was smart enough to hide and not be baited.
