I smile, and admire the mass of birds that have settled on my pile of corpses. For some reason the corpses in my Lair don't decompose, which keeps most of it pretty fresh for the animals that would want to eat it. The pile is a popular place to visit for crows leaving me with quite a few crow souls, twenty to be exact. As well as some wonderful mana, juicy crow bodies, and most importantly, feathers, something I haven't acquired before. Meaning I can make arrows! Hurray! Not that it really matters because I don't have any creatures that can hold a bow.

I turn my attention back to the floating blueprint of the mega opossum, which I have been slowly but surely filling out with meat, muscles, bones, and tendons. It is mostly done, I just need a little more dark mana. Which I now have, and am going to use. I quickly pour dark mana into it like pouring water into a glass, I keep pumping it full of mana, until it is just about to explode.

I jump. Oh ya. My enemy dungeon is on the attack. I smile, and finish manifesting my mega opossum, which I need to think of a name for, because I can't keep calling it mega opossum. My opossum finished forming, and it's nearly 3 feet long, and absolutely huge with very thick, fur, and skin.

I jump, oh they are moving fast. Its ten raccoons, led by an over-sized fox. Which wouldn't be able to fit in my tunnel. If I hadn't ordered my miner to expand the tunnels… I facepalm. They are almost here. I order my newborn opossum to lead the squad of five copper raccoons, to defend against the invaders. They are supplemented by Heracles, and… Where is Julia? I look around, and find Julia in Heracles, and her burrow, sitting around a clump of 3 large eggs. Oh… well I'm not gonna make her leave, and to be honest, I'm not worried, so… I'll just leave her be. I turn my attention back to my forces, I specifically leave out the +sized mice, because I don't think they are strong enough yet.

When they arrive I'm ready. The fox burst through the entrance to the tunnel, and is met by the jagged teeth of my mega opossum.

Who I have come up with a name for in fact. Megs. Because she is a mega opossum. I smile.

The fox is quickly wounded by the powerful force that is Megs. Quickly following behind the fox 3 more raccoons burst forward, and are quickly torn to shreds by my just slightly overpower Cancuns.

I shudder, and moan, as their mana flows into my core. Megs charges forward, and in an instant tears out the throat of the opposing fox, and leads the charge deeper into the tunnels, which she barely fits into, and the slaughter begins, they rush forward tearing, and shredding through flesh. Megs single handedly murders a squad of ten raccoons, and in doing so displays intelligence, an ability to go invisible when standing still in darkness, cruelty, as well as speed.

Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.

I smile. My Magnum Opus.

I smile. We will finish off the enemy.

Advance, destroy the opposing core.

Megs squirms, in joy before scurrying forward, followed by my squad of Cancuns. They quickly tear down the tunnel, and as they go I use my mana, and push on the barrier to the opponents Domain. My power collides with theirs, and unlike last time I am pushing back against my opponent, I slowly but surely make progress before, eventually breaking through and getting the first glimpse of their actual cave. This one is more stony, and square. I kind of like it, I think I will take notes.

Megs quickly arrives, and bursts into the cave, her natural mana assisting me allowing me to push back the enemy at a steady pace. My forces push wiping out group of animals after group of animals, before they eventually leave my domain, but leave my enemy weakened, and i'm growing faster, because my enemy is growing weaker. I smile. So basically my units can be used like little influence spreaders, making it easier to maintain, and spread my domain. I quickly follow my units, who have landed at a stalemate, in a battle with a large group of Raccoons once again.

“WAIT! PLEASE!”

I jump, in surprise, “What the?”

“Oh Thank God you are conscious, please don't kill me! I'm sorry!”

I shudder. “You tried to kill me!”

“I'm sorry I didn't know I made a mistake!” he pleads his voice cracking with fear. I shudder in pleasure as his fear turns to mana in the air.

“NO! I'm going to destroy you, and feed on your corpse!” I cackle, and groan evilly as he screams, and begs, and cries for mercy.

*CRACK* I shudder in pleasure, as Megs reaches the crystal, and takes a bite out of it, just a gentle nibble.

“NO! PLEASE NO! IT HURTS!! I'M SORRY!” he sniffles, and cries as my pets torture and devour him. I smile, and laugh in ecstasy as his mana is released into my domain empowering me. I moan, as I grow in strength in an instant nearly doubling in mana capacity, and how much mana is in me.

*CRACK* I flutter my imaginary eyes as his core shatters into multiple pieces, the last of his internal energy blasting outward in a cyclone of delicious mana. His death throes give me more satisfaction than his death itself.

Delicious…
