Reject Humanity, Return to Monke

Chapter 181 - Monke And The Elves Plus Dragonewt



Exiting the Master's Path, I found myself walking through the new walkways built in the Human Town. Marveling at the newer construction, I smiled to myself at how my Dungeon had grown over the month. No longer was it a cave with only one floor and two rooms.

Now, it is a bigger cave, with more floors and more rooms. It's not really exciting when said like that, but factor in the labyrinth, wastelands, hazardous biomes, and a functioning town on the first floor, and a person could see how far my Dungeon has come in just a month.

Entering the wall-less town, I saw a bunch of humans and demi-humans going about their day, greeting me as I passed by.

Over the course of the week these humans and demi-humans have been here, they've been surprisingly chill with their sudden transfer, as well as happy.

Well, when you go from medieval standards to modern standards, I could take a guess as to why they would like it here more than their previous accommodations.

Passing through the crowd of people that numbered a few dozen, I reached my destination. Knocking on the door, I waited for a few seconds before I heard shuffling coming from behind the door. Moments later, the door opened, and Mariona opened the door while wearing…

"What the fuck are you wearing?" Mariona looked down at her attire, then blushed.

"Sorry!" She slammed the door on my face as the elf quickly retreated into the house to probably get into a better state of dress.

"… Didn't think she would do the naked apron thing…" I cupped my chin and stored the memory in my memory banks for future purposes. I passed the time waiting by scrolling down the Dungeon Market tab to see if there was anything I could get for Domino when I returned.

A few minutes passed and the door opened once more, my eyes being drawn to the sound created. Mariona stood in the walkway, more modestly dressed than before.

"Sorry you had to see me like that, Jionni." Mariona scratched her cheek as her foot tapped on the floor, a slight blush dusting her pale cheeks. "Anyway, why did you come here?"

"I'm here to talk about your services to me." I closed the Dungeon Menu and approached the elf, who was still standing in the doorway. "Both of you were the first demi-humans to take up residence here in my Dungeon, and you are also the most loyal, even if there are times when both of you could be more… Tact, with your relationship."

Mariona chuckled sheepishly as the blush on her face intensified, her right foot tapping the floor faster now.

"Anyway, I'm not here to talk about your relationship with your sister. I'm here because it's time I gave you both a reward." Mariona's eyes widened as she stared at me with a gaping mouth, her tapping foot now quietly still as silence began to descend around us.

"Are you sure, Jionni? Me and my sister haven't done that much to help out yet." Mariona moved out of the doorway, giving me passage into the house.

"Nonsense," I walked through the path, entering the house while ducking under the doorway that was shorter than me, "You were the first demi-humans to live here, and you also helped with the new humans and demi-humans to familiarize themselves with the area. You may not have helped with defending my Dungeon as of now, but that doesn't mean your tiny deeds went unnoticed by me and my primates."

Mariona stared at me, mind-boggled at the fact that I acknowledged their helping the new faces to adjust, like any normal boss should.

'This world needs an overhaul in how they treat their employees.'

"Wow… I… This… Thank you… Jionni." Still surprised at my heartfelt comments, Mariona stuttered out a weak thanks as I chuckled at her response.

"Now, where's your sister?" I looked around the living room; the area was clean and tidy without that much dust.

"Merethyl? She's at the hospital tending to the still asleep dragonewt." Her surprise gone, Mariona grabbed a bag that hung next to the door. "I was about to leave and visit her to bring her lunch, but since you're looking for her as well, why not tag along?"

"Sure." I nodded and the both of us exited the house, Mariona making sure that the door was locked before smiling and pocketing the key.

Once again, on the streets, both Mariona and I talked about various topics as we traveled, from inane topics like what I used to keep my fur glossy to intimate topics like where she could get a dildo.

Yep, she asked me where she could get a dildo for her and her sister's sexy times. If I didn't have a relationship with Catalina, I would've been crying tears of blood at that point.

"… I'll just give you a bunch of them. Take them as some sort of extra gifts." That was my response and Mariona gave me a hug, my arm being smushed between her breasts.

Not gonna lie, Mariona's and Catalina's breast differ so much from each other, I could tell the slight differences apart.

Once she was done from hugging my arm, we both continued our trek through the streets, greeting humans and demi-humans we passed by.

Fast forward a few minutes later, and we were now in front of the hospital, which had been renovated from looking like a run-down clinic into a giant, modern hospital with a self-automated cleaning system.

I will fucking splurge my DP when it comes to the health, safety, and happiness of my residents. Less frustration equals a lower chance of rebellion, and higher loyalty.

"Well, she's in here, and we've been getting some help from the arachnes for the various wounds the residents get during their work." I nodded at her words. After all, spider silk is generally good for wounds.

Heading inside the hospital, we were greeted by Lara, who was manning the counter, a bored look plastered on her face as she yawned while flipping through the pages of some manga I had circulated around the Dungeon.

Once she noticed our presence, she quickly perked up and replaced her bored look with a surprised one, mostly due to me.

"Is Merethyl in?" Wiping her surprised look away, Lara nodded and searched the computer (I had them installed for less workload and conveniency) for the room Merethyl was in currently.

"Room 101, East Wing." Mariona nodded and walked through the corridors, I following behind her.

"… Did you really need to ask where your sister was? Didn't you say she was tending to the dragonewt who was still in a coma?" Mariona nodded at my question.

"Yes, it's just our obligation to do so. Keep respect in the workplace, as they say." I hummed in agreement at that quote.

Once again descending into silence, we walked through the hallway leading to the East Wing. Now in front of the door labeled E-101, Mariona knocked on the door and without hesitation, opened the sliding door, showing Merethyl wearing her usual outfit, but with a doctor's coat as an addition.

"Mari? Jionni?" Merethyl noticed the two of us and placed the piece of paper she was writing on top of the desk she was currently sitting behind. "What brings the both of you here?"

"Your lunch." Mariona curtly responded with a smile and raised the bag she had brought with her. "And Jionni says he has something to say to the both of us."

Merethyl looked at me, and I gave her a reassuring smile.

"Take your lunch first. We'll talk later." Merethyl relaxed and took the bag of lunch from her twin sister's hand. While she was busy eating with her sister, I approached the comatose dragonewt to check if she was faring well.

So far, she didn't look any different from when I first found her, except she was a little bit skinnier than before, but otherwise, cleaner.

Examining her closer, I grabbed the scouter from my inventory and checked her stats.

Name: Inziz

Gender: Hermaphrodite

STR: 1769 (-1500) => 269

AGI: 1869 (-1500) => 369

INT: 1669 (-1500) => 169

I grew speechless at the information given to me by the scouter in my hand.

"Wait, what the fuck!?" I was so surprised that my thoughts gave way into my mouth, shocking the two elves who were busy eating at the desk.

"Jionni!? What happened!?" Mariona, who was the most reactive of the two, quickly got into a stance ready to fight, while Merethyl stumbled, reaching for her staff that was leaning on the wall nearby.

"… No… Nothing happened. I was just surprised." I looked at the two elves and gave them a look at my current expression. "I didn't think she had both the male and female genitalia…"

The two elves fell silent for a moment, then burst out in yells.

"WHAT!?"

While the two had their outburst, I noticed the dragonewt's eyelids twitching, before the two of them opened, giving way to two crimson eyes with yellow slits.
