Arpious of the Planes

Chapter 131 Checking The Corps

[Day 53]

"Ava, you're such a good girl," I say, petting Ava on my stone throne.

I was currently inspecting the water corps training once again. They've been improving by leaps and bounds while I haven't done much at all. I've just been slowly increasing the density of the water and occasionally putting them through the training I had written down.

I was going to fully commit to the regime once the Water corps had adapted to 2x the amount of density in the water… but it looks like that isn't happening anytime soon.

I threw an elf back into the water which she continues to struggle with. Her breathing was calm and controlled, but her movements used up a lot of extra energy that she could be conserving.

Ava was currently on my lap and I was using her to pass the time. She was much more relaxed around me and her personality was almost like Yin. She liked when I pet her and she liked when I praised her. She was like a puppy or just a dog.

"How is the air corps coming around?" I ask Ava who currently had a blissful face.

"Mmmmm… They're doing good. We have already started Master's training regime and the results are amazing. My flying speed and their flying speed had increased immensely," Ava said.

"That's good,"

[Day 54]

Today I woke up with Zehar standing over me. His purple eyes slightly glowed in the dark but I could tell he didn't have any ill intent. I slowly crept my way out of my bed, making sure I didn't wake up my wives.

"What is it?"

"May I go hunting to level up? I'll stay within the [Forest of Poison]," Zehar asks.

I see… his stats are really low so his skills won't be as effective. I've already placed a blood minion on him so it should be fine.

"I permit you. If you see or find anything suspicious, you must report back and don't engage. Even if it's something you can easily take care of,"

"As you wish," Zehar says, bowing and then walking out of the room.

My wife had also woke up so we took a bath together. It was relaxing and Aika kept teasing me but I kept pushing her away, telling her that I wasn't in the mood for it... But it seemed my wives were in the mood for it so I was forced to satisfy their lustful desires.

The rest of the day went pretty slow. In the morning, I finished breakfast and ordered the water corps to keep practicing while I went to go check on the other corps. Of course, they were able to use [Water Magic] now, so if they were about to drown, I permitted them to use it.

It didn't take long for me to find where the normal assassin corps were training. All I had to do was connect to Yin's collar and make my way over there.

They were currently training on an open field, relatively close to the Academy of Twilight. It was also right next to my kingdom's wall, so there were some shadows that they could practice with.

In the distance, I could also see a few farms that the dryads had created. It was lush with different vegetables, fruit trees, and even a few monsters that were bred as a meat source.

"Master!"

Yin saw me and tried to hug me but I patted my wolf's back signaling for him to dodge. Yin's glomp misses me and she falls on the grass below me.

"Keep practicing. I just came to see what you were doing,"

"D-do I get a reward?"

"Why would you get a reward for something you're supposed to be doing?"

"B-but Ava got a reward. Why can't I?" Yin stutters with a gloomy expression.

"I was bored and picked the first one that came to mind. Now go. Go train. I want to see what you've been doing,"

I shooed Yin away which she complied with but was now extremely sad. Just this one thing had ruined her entire day. No, maybe even her week.

"*sigh*... Yin, if you do good then I'll reward you,"

"YAY!"

Yin's mood brightens once again and runs towards the assassin corps in the distance. It seems they were watching our interaction since the newbies had started to fear me. Their cold and merciless leader had just been turned into an obedient pet.

Yin talked with the corps for a bit before starting their training once again. 6 of the members had been blindfolded and their ankles were tied together with vines. Yin on the other hand sat down and her eyes were cold.

All 6 members then split up into 2 groups of 3. Yin counted down from 5 and the 2 groups gripped their daggers tightly. A breeze swept across the field and it fell dead silent. You could only hear the slight sound of wind brushing across the grass.

"Start," Yins says.

In just a split second, the 2 groups had collided with one another. The scratching of their blades made me want to rip my ears out.

Their battle lasted for only a few minutes with the left side winning. They had enough control over their body for them to stop right before they kill somebody. But sometimes, they aren't able to stop since they are suppressing their bloodlust so much. If they suppress it for so long, it might start to affect their mentality, causing them to lose themself a bit.

Once this did happen, Yin would disarm and push away both contestants before they could severely injure each other.

"Great job. It seems you're doing fine so I'll check on my kids now," I say, un-summoning my wolf, causing me to drop to the ground.

"W-what about my reward?"

"You'll get it later. I was going to check on the Air Corps, but I forgot they're taking a break today… How about you guys take a break as well,"

"Can we?"

"Go ahead,"

[Evolution Switch]

I thought of my tiny bird form, which was right after my feather form. My body started to compress itself and my wings sprouted from my back. The feathers then started to wrap around me and my vision was slowly narrowing.

"Cheep,"

I was back in my cursed wing form.

…

Damn, I'm so weak now.

"M-master? What happened to Master?"

I activate [Grand Mind Magic] and say,

'I'm right here. I'm the bird. It's a skill of mine that lets me revert to one of my previous evolutions,'

"Master, you're so cute! C-can I pick you up?"

'No, go away. Go away! AHH! Go away!'

Yin picked me up and squeezed me tightly. I tried to slap her with my wings but that did absolutely nothing as she rubbed my feathers against her cheek.

"Master is so soft,"

You've forced me to do this.

I pecked Yin's forehead causing her to lose her grip. I then quickly escaped into the grass. She tried to run after me but I quickly restrained her with the collar, causing her to fall to the ground. She clawed at the collar while I escaped and once I felt I was far enough, I released Yin.

It took quite a lot of running to get to the school in the distance. My little legs walked on the grass and sometimes I would trip because it got too long. The dryads were doing their best to keep all of the vegetation within my kingdom in check, but they still missed some parts that seemed unnecessary to take care of.

After about 30 minutes I had arrived at the school's doorsteps. Climbing up the massive steps was a pain but I finally made it up.

Let's see how my kids are doing.
