Monster Emperor
Chapter 30 | Homunculus and Heroes

...Chaptre 30. Homunculus and Heroes...

On the 48th day of my journey in search of the Goblin's nest, Altair and I arrived at a village in an abandoned forest covered in mist.

"Sir, like this place there's not a single life."

"Then let's check!"

Then, I called the Slime and ordered them to spread out to find information in the abandoned village.

And, it doesn't take long. One of the Slime's been reporting something to me.

"Master, we found a strange door!"

"really. The iron door is round."

"Okay, we'll be there" I replied.

Then, Altair and I went to the location indicated by Slime.

Upon arrival, we saw a round iron door with a round lever as well.

"It's Master. The door!" slime.

"What a strange door!"

Looking at his form, I guessed something.

"It's like a bunker?"

"Bunkers? What'sthat?" ask Altair.

"A special room and his usual stored important objects in his."

"What means inside her?!" ask him Altair.

"Yes. There's something precious inside of him."

After that, I also turned the lever but, could not because of my lacking strength. Altair who saw that, he suddenly helped and he easily turned the lever. Then, the door opened which contained a vertical ladder.

Seeing that, I was a little surprised because of the existence of modern objects in strange places like this. Then, I ignored him and entered into the one where Altair and the slimes also followed.

Upon arriving at the base, we were overpowered by an iron wall and vaguely, I saw a socket.

"That thing?"

I suspected that, I approached him and it was seen that it was indeed a socket. Then, I raised it to the top which made Altair surprised.

"What-What's that?! What is this light?"

"Not to worry. It's a lamp or some kind of lighting magic."

"Oh, so."

Then, we proceeded to the end of the room where there was a large circular room with thousands of round tubes in the middle of the room.

The tube contained a floating girl holding her knees with black hair, white and not wearing a single piece of clothing.

"What'sthis? Why are so many young girls here?"

"Seeing from his body, they were Homunculus created randomly and en masse" Altair replied.

"What is the homunculus?" ask my mind to the Great Sage.

[Artificial man made by magic of his other magical objects.]

"Oh, so. Then, can I build them?"

[You only need to hold one of the tubes then the Homunculus inside will come out of the tube.]

Understanding that, I approached one of the tubes and touched it.

A moment also suddenly the tube touched by me shook and gave rise to a rumbling sound. Then, not long after the tube exploded and hit me and Altair and the girl inside fell to the floor.

"Hey, are you okay?" I said with a small snuggle facing her. Although, the girl was not wearing any clothes.I also ignored her.

A moment later, the girl opened her eyes and looked at me.

"Master, good morning! Unit no.0001 successfully activated. What's your order?" the Homunculus girl.

Hearing that, I helped her stand up.

"Thank God. You're fine."

I saw the girl not wearing a single dress, I gave her first order. "His order! Put some clothes on and get back here!"

"Okay, sir." replied Girl 0001.

Then, Girl 0001 rushed to the box beside the room and put on her clothes. After that, it came back to face me.

"Already, Sir. What's your next order?"

"Explain to me! Whoareyou? And, the purpose of this place?"

"Good, Sir. We are the Homunculus of the Proud maiden which is used for offerings in the summoning of the Evil Goddess."

"What's? The offering? Who did that to you?"

"Our previous Master, Mr. Mystogan, wanted to raise up the God of War."

Hearing that, I could only let out a long breath. "What pity you! But just calm down! I'll keep you alive to be worthy here!"

Hearing that, the 0001 girl kneeled one leg. "Thank you, Mister. We will serve you to the death!"

"Thank you. Please guide him too!"

"Good."

After that, I woke up all the Homunculus in the Dungeon which numbered 1,000 Homunculus girls and ordered them to live in the abandoned village.

Apart from that, I have given them the name Girl-one to Girl-one thousand.

...****************...

Five hundred years ago in Phantasia's world there was a great war between the human army and the Devil's army.

In that war, the two camps did not want to lose and excel at each other and the war seemed balanced however, he said, the turned state in which the demon army issued a Legendary Sun-shaped Rune or called Rune Of Sun that was able to eject thousands that rained down on the entire army of both humans and Devils.

Even so, the human heroes of that era managed to dispel it.

Disaster did not arrive, Rune Of Sun hatched and gave rise to a very large dragon that destroyed the entire human army until only the remaining heroes were able to survive the dragon attack.

The Human Army at that moment fell into despair especially when it saw the heroes being approached by the Dragon.

The heroes did not give up, they tried with all their might to fight back but, their efforts were in vain. The dragon was not hurt at all.

On the other hand, the Dragon counterattacked and cornered the heroes. Then, at that time also came a Great Sage, Mystogan. Which Mystogan used his supreme rune to seal the Dragon and he succeeded.

Then, the Devil army decided to retreat and the war was won by the hero along with the human army.

After the war ended, Mystogan decided to seclude himself and refused all honors.

In exile, Mystogan spent his entire life in a residential house with his family until one day he decided to develop his magic and wander.

That's the story of Mystogan's diary where he is the owner and creator of this bunker and the hero who sealed Altair.

Then, I closed the book and concluded that my meeting with Altair and the Homunculus was arranged by the Evil Goddesses.

And, I don't know what their plans are so I'm not allowed to go back and have to travel around the Northern continent where this continent is known as the Demon territory and there is also where the Demon King's palace is located.

Ignoring that, I decided to go to the eastern continent with a definite direction to the east where there was a village called the Highlands village.
