A Journey Of A Delusional Witch
Chapter 16: The More The Merrier

"Finally up...!"

How far is this, 10-12km?

They're exhausted, their base man so far.

Anyway, why did they run all the way to the forest?

Forget it, more importantly... Goa well, classic.

The bandits I caught were very kind. They voluntarily notified the position of their headquarters after one experiment.

If it was just money and so on, I wouldn't bother coming here. But they said they had prisoners.

By the time I got inside, sure enough. There were a total of five people chained in the deepest part of the cave.

There were 2 adult women over 25 years old.

2 teenage girls who seem to be my age.

And a little girl who is less than 10 years old.

Their condition is very attentive. Their bodies were covered in wounds and they only wore worn cloth as clothing.

What I did next was very clear.

"Who?"

"Calm down, those bandits are gone"

After releasing the chains that bound them, I then called out the two pieces (Stone Golem) that I stored inside (Shadow Storage). Well, if it's an inanimate object I can put anything inside (Shadow Storage).

After making sure the Golems took them safely, I casually took all the treasures in this cave and put them in .

All right, time to go home!

Ah, I have to walk again... Fakk!

...

"Excuse me, why did we go into the woods?"

"Hm? Of course, because my house is here"

"Why don't you take us to town?"

That's obvious... (Bind Root)!

"A... What's this!"

"Aren't you going to set us free?!"

"Huaa... Mamaaay!"

Haha... They are so stupid.

I'm a Witch not an Adventurer!

How could I possibly waste an experimental subject this good!

All right, I've reached home.

Now it's... Time for the experiment to begin!

My first target was the oldest woman. From the information provided by the bandits, the two oldest women had been made into toys by them.

While the other three did not touch them because they intended to sell them at a high price.

So even though this woman died once. I won't lose anything because from the beginning he was a secondhand.

"Ughs... What do you want?!"

"Just calm down, I just want to try a little experiment"

The experiment I wanted to do was related to [Summoning Magic].

It was common knowledge that [Summoning Magic] could not be applied to living beings with high intelligence like Humans. I even proved it myself.

Therefore, I tried to tinker with the magic (Contract) of the [Summoning Magic] so that I could make living beings like Humans become my subordinates.

The upshot...

"Yeahhhhh....!!!"

Hm... Fail. But I think I live a little more.

"Kajahakaogaja...!!!"

Another bit... Another bit...

Ah, succeeded!

•[Slave Magic] skill has been fulfilled, successfully opened•

[Slave Magic]

A forbidden magic that allows its users to enslave other living beings and rule them wholeheartedly.

Requirements for getting : Unknown.

"Haha... Hahahaha.... Haha..."

I am a genius!

This skill, the skill that is required to obtain it is unknown I managed to get!

The price is just 4SP... Take 'em!

All right, let's try... Oh, is he dead?

"Ugh.." - UH...."

Still breathing.

This one can't be used, okay, there's more.

"No! Stay away!"

"Haha... Where can you run?"

Now it's... (Submit)!

At my command, a purplish light appeared and formed a thorny chain that surrounded the woman's neck.

"Gh.... Ohhhhh...!!!"

Ohhh... So it hurts dad. It turned out that this was indeed different from [Summoning Magic] whose way of working was to make a contract with the agreement of both parties. While [Slave Magic] made a target to obey forcibly.

It's finished!

On the surface of the skin of the neck of the woman is now engraved a tattoo with a chain pattern that surrounds her neck like a collar in the middle of which there is a familiar symbol.

A pupil with three horns.

Now I can see the status of the woman. But since it doesn't matter, I won't show it to you.

Clearly, this experiment worked.

"Well, who's next?"

...

Hm♪ Hm♪ Hm♪ Hm♪

Ah... A quiet life is the best.

Now my (slave) servants are getting more and more.

Thanks to that I had to make a small cottage not far from my house for their bed.

For the division of duties, two of the oldest women worked in the garden. Oh yes, who almost died when I was the subject of my experiment I healed. Although the condition of his body became weakened, as long as he did not die there was no problem.

For the teenagers, they were both tasked with cleaning the house and feeding the experimental subjects that were in the basement in place of the Lif.

While the youngest...

"Massage is stronger!"

"Guard-ready Master"

Yes there you have it, since he is young and not very much useful, I only ordered him to do trivial work.

"Master, may I ask you a question?"

"Say"

"Why doesn't Master give them clothes?"

"Their clothes are bad so I burn them. I don't have a change of clothes for them so I'll let it go"

"But, at least..."

"Lif, whatever happens don't give them clothes and don't question my decision. Understand!"

"Ready!"

Yup, that's how it should be.

Now, there's something important I need to do.

Thanks to those bandits now I know that my defense is quite weak. The (Stone Golem) was weak enough to be defeated by ordinary bandits.

Therefore, I must strengthen my defense at least three times what it is now.

I've thought of some way to do that. One of them is to set a trap.

Thanks to the wandering Mobs, ordinary traps were not very useful.

So, I'll set a life trap!

The ingredients are quite simple. I just need the tree trunk cut down by the Golems and (Magic Core).

First of all I will use (Plant Control) on the trunks of the tree. I made it look like a fantasy creature called Ents (Please find out for yourself).

Then enter (Magic Core) into their bodies. Not just one, but I put three in!

Now it's... (Golem Creation)!

Name : -

Race: Tree Golems, Genderless (1)

Occupation: Slave (Lavender)

Skill :

(Wood Magic 5) (Stealth 5)

All right, the performance wasn't too bad.

For appearance, like Ents in general. You know that, right? The one in the movie is the magic ring!

•[Wood Magic] has reached level 20. Get 1 1•

•[Natural Wall) from [Wood Magic]•

•[Stone Magic] has reached level 10. Get 1 1•

•[Stone Wall) from [Stone Magic]•

•[Appraisal] has reached level 15. Get 1 1•

•[Mana Enchant] has reached level 15. Get 1 1•

•[Mana Recovery] has reached level 15. Get 1 1•

For new magic need not be discussed.

Thanks to my hard work, I managed to create more than a hundred (Wood Golems) that I scattered in the North, East, and West of the forest.

Their sizes vary from 3m to 7m. If they want, they can disguise themselves as a tree in general (yes they are a tree).

But, most of them I let roam freely in order to add a mystical impression to this forest as well as scare those who intend to enter into my territory.

I still can't touch the Southern forest. But it won't be long.

"Lif... Alcohol!"

"I'll get ready soon"

Huh... Thankfully, Lif bought alcohol in the city.

Even though it's just beer, alcohol is alcohol. I want to drink wine. I don't know why nobody is selling. Ways to not know either.

Hm... Look at the internet later.

Huh... Fatty, rest first.

...

Well, I'm fresh, Mana has recovered, time to get back to work!

Next I will create a special Golem to fight. What golem will I create this time?

Of course it is another masterpiece!

The process is more or less the same as when I created Lif, only this time I will put an additional (Magic Core) on the chest, on both the back of the hand, and on the eel.

I used the (Magic Core) I got from (Forest Bear) to guarantee his strength.

Not just one, I made two at once!

All right, it's done, to the next one.

This time I will use the (Magical Clay) I took from the river.

Oh, easier to use (Soil Control) than (Plant Control).

Two more are done, it's time to put them on the altar!

Hm... If it did everything at once, it would definitely burden me. I guess I'll just split it into two groups.

First one...

"With his wooden body, they serve"

"With his sacred soul, they serve"

"With his brave soul, they protect"

"With all his soul and body, they obey all my commandments"

"O wood puppet, arise, and serve your master until the end"

Okay, go to bed first...

...

..

.

All right, it's time to see what my new waiter is capable of.

The first one is Percy.

His appearance was similar to that of Lif only slightly shorter and his expression seemed somewhat stiff. The clothes she was wearing also appeared to be made of foliage but instead of a dress, she was wearing clothes similar to sports clothes that facilitated her movement.

The science of the sword is also good. It's just that right now I only have the used sword I got from the bandits.

Looking at the quality, it is rather good. It's just that Percy still needs a shield and if necessary better armor.

The second is Zweite.

He was taller than Lif and also looked more mature.

Since I don't have an arrow, I don't know how accurate his aiming ability is.

The clothes she wears are similar to what Percy wears. It's just more open.

The third is Trita.

I don't know if because he is a (Clay Golem) or what, different from Lif and the others who have exotic skin. Trita has smooth white skin and feels cold to the touch.

Trita is much shorter than Percy and myself. This makes her look like a 16 year old girl.

Also...

"You don't have any clothes..."

"Master, this may not be polite. Please look in the mirror"

"Lif, I don't have a mirror to know"

After the ritual, I went straight to sleep. Where do I put my clothes?

The last one, Vier.

His face and body were very similar to Trita as if they were twins.

Just like her sister, she also had no clothes.

"Lif, immediately prepare a temporary outfit for Trita and Vier. Then invite the four of them to buy Armors and weapons in the city"

"The servant will do it"

Okey... Now what should I do?

"Mah-master... Your clothes"

Ah, so it's in the little guy.
