Taming my Monster Girl Harem from Scratch

Chapter 418 How to Nurture a God

Chapter 418 How to Nurture a God

??I spent a full hour wracking my head, trying to think of a way to get a god-level monster, but I quickly realized that it wouldn't be so easy.

"Even if I wanted to borrow a god-level monster from Zeshion or the others, my own mental capacity wouldn't be able to handle it..."

I thought of using the Faux Contract, but it probably won't be able to unlock the functions. Since, as the name implies, it's not a real contract.

Right. Currently, I need to become stronger before I can even begin to think of getting a god-level monster!

*GURURURRR!*

"..."

Using my head made me hungry. Well, it's perfect, though, since I want to have a talk with the girls right now anyway.

After sending a message to all of them, asking them to join dinner for an important discussion, I quickly teleported back to the Debauchery Hall. There, as soon as I got out, a random succubus tamer, one of my personal army members, was cleaning the room.

"L-Lord Will!"

As soon as she saw me approach, she quickly straightened her body before bowing down at a perfect 45-degree angle. There's no need to act so formally before me, though.

"Good work. Can I ask you to prepare dinner for me and my girls? Right, if you want, you can also join."

I was just offering out of goodwill, but her face quickly brightened, her eyes sparkling like stars.

"R-Really?! Then, I'll go and ask the chef to make the best food for Lord Will and your tamed monsters!"

Before I could tell her not to, she had already run away. A lot of places were bouncing around as she ran, making me forget to speak as I watched her figure fade beyond the stairs.

"..."

D*mn succubus bloodline, making me feel like this right before dinner.

I sat down for a while, trying to calm down, while waiting for the girls to appear. The first ones to come were the two who were on standby in the Debauchery Hall, Judy and Yorm. As they entered, they went straight to the furthest end of the table, as far away from me as possible.

These two, I wonder, just when will they open up to me?

After them, Fatima, who was nearby, came and was followed by Fang and Igni, Ember, and Fina. The last ones to arrive were Minerva and Hekate, who just woke up after their long rest.

Even with all of us now gathered, the table wasn't even half-full. Anyway, with our roster complete, I began to hint about our topic for later.

"After dinner, we'll need to discuss how to become god-level."

I said it as flatly as possible, but the girls still got surprised.

"Master... isn't it a little too fast for that? Igni, the strongest among us right now, is just at the 8th stage!"

"Right, Leader! If we rush to the 9th stage, something bad might happen!"

"My Lord, I am prepared to challenge the 9th stage, but trying for the God level is..."

"From my experience, we need a month at least if you want to rush it safely."

"Will... What's the rush?"

Before I could explain, the door to the office opened, and trolleys of food started to pour in. Along with the food, five of the succubus tamers came closer, each wearing expensive-looking dresses that emphasized their assets to the limit.

"Lord Will, the food has arrived."

The one I spoke to before performed another perfect bow.

The food was then lined up across the table, each one looking as scrumptious as a three-star restaurant's meals. This—isn't this a lot more extravagant than usual?

"Right. Thanks. Also, my offer still holds. The ladies beside you too, if you want, please join us. The table is spacious, and we have a lot of food, after all."

Hearing my words, she quietly cheered along with the four behind her. I guess she brought them with her, thinking that I would offer them to share the table with us, and her guess was on point.

I mean, offering it only to her might sound unfair to the four, so...

After that, everyone sat around the table and began to eat. The difficult talks could wait for later.

I thought that the atmosphere would turn awkward from adding five succubus tamers to our table, but on the contrary, the girls even began chatting with them joyfully. From what I could hear, they apparently dine with the girls often, even more often than I do.

"..."

I should probably try to have breakfast and dinner with everyone. It's not that I'm jealous or anything, but the fact that strangers are spending more time with my girls than me just doesn't sit well with me.

The dinner ended without much fuss, and the five gave their thanks to me before leaving to resume their duties. As they walked away, I couldn't help but stare at the ten bouncy cakes slowly moving away. Why did they change attire in the first place? That's a mystery...

"Ahem!"

"...?"

Apparently, I was starting too much when Ember began to look at me with a judging gaze. Well, I can't help it. Men are just that sort of creature; it's like it's coded into our genes!

"Anyway, now that dinner is over, we'll resume the earlier discussion."

After that, I explained how God Zeshion told me that to "repair the barrier between the two worlds," I would need to first regain the lost functions of the system. And to do that, I would need to unlock them myself.

"... which means I would need to gain at least one god-level monster ASAP."

"That's... going to be difficult."

Fatima muttered, a deep frown adorning her pretty face.

"Rather than nurturing one, I think it would be faster to just tame one that's already at the god level."

Right, I came to the same conclusion myself. And, to be able to tame a god-level monster, I would first need to gain a few 9th stages, so in the end, I would still need to nurture the girls and let at least five of them reach the 9th stage soon.

"So in the end, we'd still need to go on a strengthening spree..."

As I was pondering, I suddenly recalled what I had in my [Spatial Storage].

"Wait, with this, can't I take a shortcut...?"

A dangerous idea crossed my mind. My lips curled upward, causing the girls to be taken aback.

"Will, you look like a villain planning to conquer the world right now."

When I heard Fina's exasperated words, I quickly straightened my expression and took out something to show the girls.

"Everyone! I want you to use this!"

Everyone stared at the thing I took out and gasped.
