Elf and Pride

It is peace time again for us at this Sanctuary.

The beast village is nearly done.

There were only 20 people so there weren't many problems.

Besides, the Skull Face Angels that Von summoned helped out with their magic too.

So it's a success in building a small tribe for the Beast people.

I've started to caught glimpses of promising beauties among the beast children.

NO.

I'm not a lolicon, I repeat, I am not a lolicon...probably...maybe...

Aw come on...can you resist the cuteness of children with animal ears?

Even though my current body is 25 years old, I have the mind of a 35 year old man.

I have my instinct as a father, alright?

Oh yeah, I also announced the villagers about my new appearance.

I was lazy to explain all about homunculus to them so I just told them that I secretly materialized.

Then after all the necessary work is done.........no, not yet.

I completely forgot about Rex-kun, my pet dinosaur.

About him, I just let him loose around the Sanctuary and feed him meat.

Nope, I didn't feed to his mouth.

I summoned a few wild animals and let them loose so he can hunt.

Of course I accessed their behaviors so they won't attack the villagers.

If you look down to us from the sky, or use the mapping app on your smartphones, you'll see a clump of houses in the middle of a wide circular area.

The rest of the land was the playground for a T-Rex...

What a weird place I own...

So now that everything is really done, what do I do next?

Become bored and take another nap, yep.

Oh yeah, about napping.

Yesterday when I pulled that joke to tease Leila, her reactions made me regret.

I woke up seeing a Leila with teary eyes and bright crimson face.

She was mumbling something like "If it was Ralph-sama...t-t-t-then it's....o-o-o-okay...."

I didn't quite get it, she should have screamed and kicked me out of the bed right?

Turns out there were circumstances behind that reaction.

Here's how it goes...

Remember the [Semi-Resurrection] spell I used on her the first day I found her?

Yep, that thing lived up to its name, it literally resurrected her partly.

And what do I mean by that?

Aside from healing physical wounds, it actually revised the broken mentality of Leila to a certain extent.

That explains why she recovered so fast, only 6 days needed.

Those were the information I got from reading the description of the spell again.

And here's the piece of information I got from Leila.

The spell also revised that.

You know, that!

The symbol of a virgin.

She got that back from the spell.

I won't even ask how she found out, but that's quite a revelation...

Hence, the current situation.

She woke up seeing me napping next to her with a devious smile on my face.

And of course, she thought I took it...

I was about to dogeza to apologize but was stopped.

Disgrace of a divine being bowing his head?

Wrong! Dead wrong!

A divine being playing with the heart of women can't even be compared to trash.

Especially ones with the soul of a game-fanatic who loves beastwomen...

My pride as a programmer who works with games everyday won't allow that!

Speaking of pride, there was an interesting event today.

Around noon, I was so bored I bought a few books from the Menu for 5P each.

I shared it with Leila and we called it a study session.

Of course I offered it to all vilagers, but they weren't just interested in reading.

Though there were a few youth and children who asked for books about Magic.

I picked the ones written in Beast language and gave it to them.

Just their existence alone gave me tons of points everyday.

So stingy about these little stuffs are utterly bad.

Back on topic, while I was reading about history, a Skull Face Angel contacted me through telepathy.

「Ralph-sama. It seems like there are 5 individuals asking for an audience with you」

Strange.

This is a free place, they could just enter and go straight into the temple.

Even though I'm in Leila's hut right now, I'll hear their prayers loud and clear.

「Can't they just go straight into the temple and pray?」

「They're asking for a personal talk with the God, they aren't planning to pray」

Oh? Interesting.

A personal talk with a God.

You're full of yourselves out there, friends.

「Lead them into the Temple」

「Roger」

Within my land I can warp to anywhere I want instantly, so I jumped to the Temple and sat down at the round table I usually ate breakfast with Leila.

Yeah, with this new body I can now taste things.

Turns out the instant noodles were better than the ones I had in my previous life.

No wonder Leila liked it...

After a few minutes, the door opened, a man 180cm tall stepped in.

Through my surveillance monitor, I saw 4 more women standing guard outside.

All five of them were elves.

[High Elf] Spirit Mage LV.60

Tuha Tujei, 100 years old.

Quite a young individual to be escorted by 4 beauties.

Probably some kind of chief or prince...

I stood up and we did our basic greetings with handshake and all that.

He was quite surprised seeing me in human form.

We sat down and started our discussion.

「Then,  what do you need from a Nature Spirit like me?」

「I want to sign a contract」

「Contract?」

Elves use contracts with the spirits to perform their magic.

That I knew, but environmental spirits and divine nature spirits like me aren't the same things.

A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

「That's right. Protect us from the human raids, there are rewards」

「Hoh? What kind of rewards」

This jerk.

At the word 'rewards' he smirked at me.

Let us play along for awhile and see what the hell does this idiot want...

「To a low rank stray spirit like you, we'll be generous, 5 gold coins of offerings and 3 elven women」

Do you think I'm some kind of sex crazed monkey?

Agree that not all Gods are nice, but I think I am a decent person.

Offering me sex slaves equals digging your own grave, you know?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that I'm so clean myself that I would turn down women.

But this kind of shitty personality pisses me off

「Nice, sounds cool. Then tell me about the contract itself...」

I made an interested face and spoke with a slightly interested voice.

The guy instantly smiled deviously and nodded with pride.

I quietly guided him into a frenzy of himself talking all big about generous rewards and shit like that.

The story goes like this...

God of Sorcery Bagdur is only interested in researching.

He left all the managing of the Sanctuary to his disciples and apostles.

Thus, they linked with the nobles at Twilight city to perform raids on Elf villages.

The ultimate goal is of course, sex slaves.

Apparently it seems like all men in this world is openly perverted...

The High Elf sitting in front me said his people detected a full raid party of humans not far away from their village.

They alone cannot repel that force of more than 250 humans.

So they sent an envoy, this brat, to me and negotiate.

「OOOOOOOHHH. I see I see I seeee...」

「Hahaha! Good deal indeed, no?」

「Yes yes yes, good deal. I refuse」

「Hahah—HAH?」

Pfffff...!!

His face...oh my god, no, my self!!!

His face twisted between a frown and a laugh!!!

HAHAHAHAHA!!!

It's the face you'd make when you were laughing along with your friends then suddenly realized you're the one being trolled...hahaha...

「You probably didn't catch that. I REFUSE」

Here's my reasoning...

Who the fuck do you think you are?

Through games and light novels I knew that High Elves are very prideful.

But you're mortal, you're not divine...

The reason Gods are called divine is because they're beyond you.

Like, right now I can just pull out a spell and roast you then feed you to Rex-kun.

And I'm confident that I can do the same to your whole village...

So with that said, when you ask for protection from a God, be sincere.

Had he prayed and had faith, his people would have all ended up in prosperity like the beastmen...

But this bitch he said NO.

Let's treat a God like his fucking underling.

Low-ranking God?

Generous in rewards?

How about I take your life now and view that as a reward for your "kind words"?

「B-Bullshit!!! You Gods are supposed to protect the mortal world aren't you!!!」

「Interesting. Who taught you that?」

「Don't play dumb!! Aren't all the mortal religions believe that?!?」

「Hoh? And who are these "religions" that you're talking about?」

「Of course the Church!!! You bastards have one job to protect us, so follow the rules and accept it!!!」

「Tell me, do you see any Church in this Sanctuary?」

「.......................no」

「What fucking religion worships me and taught that I'll protect the mortal world?」

「................................」

「Who the hell exactly was the one who implied a rule about Gods protecting mortal worlds as their mission?」

「.................................」

「Goodbye」

I used [Transposition] to kick all 5 of them out of my lands and ordered the Skull Face Angels to be on guard.

But they seemed to left after a few minutes.

***

...or not.

After only two hours, the guy came back with a force of 20 elves.

10 men 10 women.

All armed to the teeth with magic ready.

「Burn down this place! Let that lowly trash know he's not anything close to a God!」

Sigh.

I welcomed them by opening the gate from my Menu and stood in front of my temple to see how it plays out.

The idiots actually took the gate and came in gloriously.

Pfffff...!!!

Hahahaha...

I'm dying to see them put up a comedy stage.

「Let me show you the power that a lowly spirit like you don't ha—」

「Nether Strike(200P)」

The bitch evaporated after a purple explosion took place right where he stood.

The whole place was wrapped in complete silence.

The Elves widened their eyes in terrors.

The female elves' legs trembled like no tomorrow.

This is what you get when you try to pull a dirty trick on a God.

He was trying to attack me, so...reap what you sowed bitch!

Even if this infuriates the Elf village and they pull an all out attack, I'll destroy them.

Of course, female prisoners of war, that's the priority.

It's High Elves we're talking about you know?

My hot blood came up a little seeing the elf girls in this group right now...

That said, Leila isn't inferior in any aspect either.

「So...your leader's dead. Prisoners of war or follow him to see Hades, choose one!」

Apparently, 15 of them, 10 men and 5 women pulled out their weapons and attacked.

Ended up as a massacre by the two male Shadow Wolves and Skull Face Angles.

The other 5 elf girls just surrendered unconditionally.

Good girls.

I'll make sure to treat you well.

Um...about how you interpreted that, I have a bad feeling...

Author's P.s: Stop what you're thinking. I'm so not going in the direction of Re:Monster.
