Behind the eager crowd of lamias and beastn, Felix noticed a significant pile of treasures—trent corpses, bundles of dried weeds, and strange purple mushrooms.
At the front of the treasure heap, a box of large gemstones glittered, reflecting the morning light. Felix raised an eyebrow as he scanned the collection, his gaze settling on Clover, who stood proudly in front of the offering.
"Well, it's not much," Clover began, her voice carrying a hint of humility, "but this is all we managed to gather over the past week. I hope it's enough to share the dragon at with us again."
Felix's eyes flicked over the crowd. Everyone was practically salivating, their anticipation of receiving more of the coveted dragon at evident. Yet, it wasn't their drooling faces that caught Felix's attention—it was how they had changed.
The lamias were different now. So had transford into demi-humans, standing on two legs, their sleek, muscular forms partially covered in snake scales. Their faces were more humanoid, and their figures had developed so much that their beauty rivaled even Jiji's, though their deanor still lacked her grace.
Felix could sense the mana they radiated with each breath, indicating they had reached the fourth or even fifth mana circle.
The beastn had also undergone a stark transformation. Their bodies were more muscular, their skin radiating with aura. Huchu, who once appeared as a regular warrior, now carried the presence of a six-star aura knight. Even the other beastn radiated power, equivalent to five-star aura knights.
As for Clover, her aura was the most intimidating of them all. Felix could tell that her mana density was approaching the level of Garudeer.
Felix smirked to himself, fully aware of what had caused their rapid advancents.

…
The at had no direct benefit for Felix, thanks to his unique physiology, but it was a magical food source for nearly everyone else. He hadn't let Jiji partake yet as he had been waiting to see how these "guinea pigs" reacted to it first.
Now, after observing their physical and internal improvents, Felix felt confident that it was safe. He resolved to finally cook so for Jiji and the hydra familiar.
Returning his attention to the pile of offerings, Felix evaluated their worth. The trent corpses could be useful for crafting or mana conversion, and the gemstones seed interesting. The purple mushrooms intrigued him, possibly having alchemical uses.
And the dried weeds?
Felix wasn't so sure about those, but they might have so value. All in all, it wasn't a bad haul, considering the rewards he'd already gained from their work.
"Well," Felix said with a smirk, "I suppose you've earned another share of dragon at." His gaze flicked toward the pile of treasure. "But next ti, try to bring sothing more... exotic. We've got big ambitions here, after all."
Clover's smile widened, and the crowd of lamias and beastn erupted in cheers, their eyes gleaming with anticipation. They were clearly eager for their next al and the continued benefits of their evolving life under Felix's rule.
Felix continued, "How much do you need? Or rather, how much can you even carry back?"
Clover rubbed her hands together, and her vine tendrils writhed with excitent. "How about… 100 carts of red dragon at? Also, the blood and so fertilizer for the crops…"
Felix narrowed his eyes, considering the request. Fortunately, he had already saved so raw spirit potatoes for Clover's farming project. To test her capabilities, he ejected 100 spirit potatoes from his inventory, letting them fall at her feet. Then, with a wave of his hand, he summoned 100 gallons of dragon blood and a large container brimming with unknown intestines.
"Fine. Consider this your advance paynt for the spirit potato project," Felix said. "As for the at..."
With a snap of his fingers, 10 massive cuts of rain dragon at—each the size of his house—appeared before the group. Felix gave one of the slabs a light smack. "Yours. Keep up the good work."
Clover, Huchu, and the rest of the lamias prostrated themselves before him, their grins wide as they eagerly began cutting down the enormous chunks of dragon at, preparing to haul it back to their village. The crowd buzzed with excitent, their makeshift tools clanging against the at as they worked.
However, Clover wasn't finished. Rising to her feet, she hesitated before speaking again, her voice more asured this ti.
"Sir… I an, master. There's one more issue. About the weapons and ammunition you gave us... I'm afraid we've encountered so problems."
Clover gestured to a lamia, who brought over a cart stacked with KAR 98k rifles. She pointed at the rifles with a concerned expression.
"The weapons are effective against the monsters in the forest, but they break easily. So of them misfired, and many of the barrels got clogged. We're struggling to keep them in working condition. Could you help us repair them?"
Felix picked up one of the rifles and inspected it closely. His brows furrowed as he ran his hand along the barrel. It was filled with dirt, as if soone had tried to use it as a shovel. Shaking his head, he glanced at Jiji.
"Have you taught them how to maintain these guns?"
Jiji, ever expressionless, replied without a hint of sha, "No, master."
Felix sighed and smacked his forehead. "Of course… That explains it."
Turning back to Clover, Felix explained the problem. "It's not the weapons that are faulty—it's the lack of maintenance. Leave about 20 of your smartest subordinates here. I'll personally teach them how to repair, clean, and replace parts. Also... do you need more ammunition?"
Clover perked up. "Yes, please. We're running low."
Without hesitation, Felix nonchalantly summoned 10,000 boxes of regular ammunition, each box filled to the brim with fresh rounds. Then, with another wave of his hand, he created 100 brand-new rifles to replace the damaged ones.
Clover's face lit up with joy, and she bowed deeply. "Thank you, master. We are grateful."
She quickly retrieved the weapons and ammunition, storing them in her subspace with ease. As she stood there, her confidence was renewed.
Felix felt satisfied that he had secured both loyalty and progress from his followers. With each interaction, his floating island was moving closer to becoming a fortified, thriving realm under his careful managent.
But Clover's next word shattered the impressions.
"Master, would you like to… repay you?"
Once again, Clover peeled her flower bikinis, revealing a lot of skin. The large flower that served as her bosom also moved, revealing her partially humanoid lower body parts and her reproductive area. It was wide enough for a man to slip his legs inside and unite with her.
Jiji imdiately hissed and pulled Felix away. Clover giggled and retreated, giving up on tempting her master for now.
…
After the crowd had dispersed, Felix and Jiji returned to the house. Jiji imdiately took out a kilogram of dragon at, slicing it into neat steaks as she prepared a al. Felix, preoccupied with the task at hand, knew it was ti to upgrade both her and his loyal hydra heads, Eins and Zwei. He turned on the gas stove, placing butter into the pan, the aroma already filling the room.
But before he could even finish prepping, Jiji, still frustrated from the earlier events, made an unexpected move. Without warning, she yanked down Felix's pants and reached for his nether region.
"Er..." Felix froze, still holding the pan. His eyes darted to his snake wife, completely taken aback by her sudden thirst for intimacy. "What are you doing?"
"Master," Jiji said in a sultry voice, her eyes dark with passion, "You don't need other subordinates for this duty. Please, leave EVERYTHING to ."
Felix rolled his eyes, exasperated but amused. "I know I've been a bit... thirsty lately too, but I'm in the middle of cooking—Gah! Not the fangs!" he yelped as Jiji playfully nipped at him with her sharp teeth.
That day, amidst the sizzling of dragon steaks, Felix found himself nursing a small, but slightly painful bite wound. The food, though expertly prepared, wasn't the only thing sizzling in that kitchen.
