It was a sunny day and the loud footsteps of a monster could be heard casually meandering through the forest - the soft crunching of the foliage beneath being overshadowed by the sound of the stone plates of the creature sliding across one another.
A Pangolem was a creature known not only for it’s large defense but it’s dangerous claws which it uses to dig both dirt and internals of other creatures. A large armoured body that hunches over almost as if to guard it’s more squishy insides. Two large menacing claws present on either one of it’s grubby little hands…
Though calling it little may be a mistake as the creature stood at about 3 foot….
Or at least this one did as most instead stood at 2.5 - but when facing a giant they all appear harder. Harder to tell if a smaller creature is larger than it’s meant to be rather than a bigger one being bigger.
It was just minding its own business as it walked around - already all the creatures in the area knew how to fear this king of the kingdom.
Although it didn’t have any dragon's blood in it, it wasn’t to be looked down on. Although they are slow this one makes up for that with it’s evolution into a Ravager which gave it the ability to pounce - which it quickly began to master.
With a mixture of it’s fearsome claws, armoured body and it’s new skill that came for free he became a beast in his own right!
As it was walking however, something unexpected happened!
It found a set of intestines; they smelled like those domesticated black and white creatures that it enjoyed so much it risked attacking that human village; yet here it was for free right in front of it!
At first, it was careful, slowly walking around while keeping its large beady black eyes looking all around. Soon it got to the point where it began to circle around the organs. However hunger overcame it’s care soon enough and it began to slurp down the intestines that were just out in the open on the floor. It was refreshing and cool - nice and full of juice - and soon the Pangolem finished up it’s delicious meal.
Now it began to wander again.
Time went on and it didn’t notice much happening but then suddenly it caught a figure in front of itself. A little girl with long violet hair and a lot of meat on her body - another free meal!
Although she had a spear he didn’t care too much and was about to pounce on her when suddenly she vanished from his sight and he felt the overbearing presence crashing down on him! The only thing he can compare would be the feeling when he was chased around by the {Giant Green Lizard} but even that couldn’t compare to this!
Before he could even return to his senses a sharp pain made it’s way through his stomach as it would automatically swipe it’s left claw under itself - feeling itself connect slightly but with it’s massive claw that was enough to send the attack flying.
Soon crashing into a tree with a *Bang* and explosion on splinters
“Urgh! Certainly a nasty little critter but I doubt you can pounce like that can you~?” <Eel>
Eel slowly moved her spear; that she held in her left hand; to prop herself up from the tree wreckage. Suddenly a golden light mixed with a bit of pinkish purple consumed her right arm which hung limply to her side - a large set of twin gash present up to her bone from the twin claws of the pangolem.
“We only weakened his armour Beth, you should be more careful… I don’t like seeing you get hurt, I’d rather if you hur-” <Emily>
“Don’t worry Mil, a little scratch like this won’t even take half an hour to heal!” <Eel>
Eel deciding to swiftly cut Emily off before she could continue on, she could only blame Leaf for this.
But, it wasn’t like she was lying either as her wound was quickly closing up and it didn’t seem like she was affected at all by the blood loss - the way most dragons actually were hunted was apparently through blood loss not some epic ‘cutting the head of the dragon’ or ‘charging through the dragon's heart’.
Although, the precious dragon's blood that held the powerful bloodline of the dragon was lost, it was the only way to really tire out most dragons unless you were looking for losses in the thousands for hunting one… Maybe even more losses.
<Well, not like it matters for me. If I kill a dragon it’ll be in an epic melee!>
Forgetting the fact she, herself, was a dragon.
Slowly walking towards the already wounded Pangolem, Eel just grinned as the Pangolem cradled it’s bleeding stomach. The beast almost seemed to be glaring at her with it’s teeth bared - seemingly coming back to itself when it realized such a little creature used some trick to get a free hit on itself.
However, as it held it’s other claw up as if to intercept any action she may make, a shadow came from the ground to bind it’s feet for a second allowing for Eel to duck towards it’s left side - slamming her spear straight through the side of it’s little skull - piercing through the should be tough stone like mud - before jumping back from the last and feeble attempt to clip her again with its claw. The momentum of it’s last attack dragging it down with a loud *THUD*.
“And another one down, that water enhancement poison really did a number on the guys armour~!” <Eel>
“Wouldn’t have worked so well if you didn’t manage to suppress it though…” <Emily>
“It’s just a little trick. You on the other hand used your big brain to help me out~” <Eel>
Eel said while walking up to Emily who hid behind a tree off to one side, getting a head pat from Eel was a reward. Eel careful not to get too intimate with her ears or horns in case she gets sexually assaulted by the cow again or the cow passes out from over stimulation - both quite regular occurrences.
Of course, the bloodline suppression wasn’t a trick but rather an effect of her strong bloodline forming into the intimidation skill.
There are other ways to get a similar affect such as bloodlust, killing intent, etc. but blood suppression was likely one of the rarer ones on this continent at least. Although, apparently a lot of clans existed that had similar abilities under the ocean and in the east where apparently a lot of bloodthirsty people lived and killed each other. Mother apparently spent most her time back handing them back to where they came from since the only connections to that side of the world were the sea, the plague lands and the passage of dragons.
The first may seem easier except for one small detail, Mother.
The second was literally a place where all the plagues know to man existed, only the most poisonous plants could exists and most importantly (and scarily) Pandora the Ancient Evil Dragon of Plagues lived along with the last Horseman of the Apocalypse - Death the Pale Rider. It is a stated fact that in terms of dragons, Pandora is the only evil-dragon to have ever evolved into the ancient prefix which is a step away from godhood due to a small little detail… She can’t die due to her being the bearer of all curses and plagues known and unknown to man.
The Pale Rider on the other hand use to be a set of four gents that would ride around causing chaos a few centuries ago but apparently Mr Plague himself got up from his slumber and all of the other riders suffered from Pandora's Plague - dying. It’s unknown who did it, but it’s rumoured either Pandora used her box to contain them afterwards or the Pale Rider took his brother's power for himself.
In other words; you have a demi-god of plagues with the little ability to not fucking die as well as the emboyment of death just chilling around… To point out how outrageous this is, the area known as the plague lands takes up more land than Orrid, Goberz and the outlet of the Indigo Stratos easily.
Nobody but Munzumira or Mother probably knows it’s full size and all that was caused by Pandora simply choosing to settle down there.
There has been attempts to kill her but in the adventurers guild that mission has now became a legendary quest that has killed many heroes and S-Ranks to the point where it’s the oldest quest in known existence. It’s even been lost when it was placed, who placed it and how many people have been claimed… The scariest thing is some believe they never even saw a single scale of Pandora…
As for Death… Well he’s fucking death! The 4 horsemen were originally part of a danger category called ‘Topplers’ which is to say they could feasibly harm the Pillars - similar to other big bads like the Demon Gods. Of course, even though Pandora hasn’t even become a god (though they’d likely become a Demon God) they have also managed to get named as a Toppler due to how tricky they are to deal with.
Even if they aren’t as physically strong as other dragons, just their presence (lazing around) could wipe out a continent in a couple weeks if trade is active and close enough to allow a quick spread… Nobody has really seen Pandora fight though so it’s hard to say how strong they are.
<I believe that Death probably didn’t get the powers of his fellows but rather seeks to steal that box from Pandora hence why he hangs around the Plague Lands instead of anywhere less plaguey.>
Of course, one doesn’t need to explain why it would be a bad idea to go through a valley of dragons… But also on the other side of the valley is the largest Empire in the world who have a special army for hunting down anyone who may think themselves ‘godlike’ or even those who are.
There are even some requests that go out from the adventurers guild to kill some of the people from the east for special materials they grow in their bodies that are similar to a monster's core or a ‘dragons heart/core’ except in a human. It forms when they collect a bunch of special energy and then condense it or something. Oh, it also evolves similar to how a dragon does except not as cool and usually with less scales.
Of course, the ancient clans often have similar abilities to dragons but not as cool as well.
Basically, the likelihood of someone coming over from the east was virtually none. It’s not like they can just travel around the other side to arrive back to the west instead! That would actually be silly.

“Schlumm~tluchlm~glom~♥” <Fuka>
“Damn bitch, I was messing but’cha really do got a big mouth dontcha!” <Fat Man>
“Urgh- I’m about to unload in this bitch!” <Sturdy Man>
From a little distance from the the little lovers Fuka was fulfilling the promise made by her team leader in her preferred fashion - multiple at the same time.
Her plump lips wrapped around two two meaty shafts as the men pumped their hips with her hands guiding them by the balls, fondling them with her gauntlets on while her head piece of her armour was lifted up enough for them to invade her mouth but not see much else from her. She was currently squatted with her knees facing apart with the fabric under her armour appearing quite wet.
As the cocks were competing for the same cockpipe it was quite aggressive and her eyes were quite moist from the abuse of her throat - but she didn’t mind. In fact, the only thing she didn’t like was that she wore armour today so they couldn’t follow this up with a triple shot in her ass after she got them lubed with her throat.
Everyone had their kinks and hers were being railed by multiple cocks - preferably in the same hole - maybe because that’s how goblin men preferred to breed and how she probably arrived in this world. With an unspecified amount of cocks unloading.
<My mother may have been a fan even if she acted like she wasn’t considering she took my brother to Goberz to take care of him instead of me… Oh, his cock’s about to burst!>
Her wandering thoughts of visiting her family cut off by the throbbing cut cock being pulled out her throat and too her lips while the other kept plunging in freely. Her hand moving away from the fat mans balls towards the guy who was unfortunately left off to the side to wank off to her on the side. Quickly giving him a few tugs with her gauntlet before he already spurted out a few strands into her hand and onto the side of her helm.
He was embarrassed but she didn’t care.
<Quick shooters are always the ones who hit true in the other brothels and they have a certai->
Her inner monologue cut off once more as the sturdy man unloaded, cum hitting the back of her throat before settling in her mouth only to be churned up by the thrusting of the fat man not letting her consider not getting a big ol’ taste of his nut butter.
In fact, as her mouth was filling up she felt the fatman’s cock throb as he didn’t even consider giving her the courtesy of pulling back as he unloaded while he continued to thrust, holding the end of her head while pounding her face harder. If she didn’t have the helmet she’d instead have a broken nose!
Her own legs trembled as she couldn’t help but climax from the rough usage of her mouth as she couldn’t even see the sun from the belly resting over her visor as he railed her mouth from up close.
Soon she even felt a faint burning in her nose which she was very well acquainted with as creamy offwhite fluid trickled down from her nostrils as the two men finally pulled back to look at their work.
Seeing her with puffed up cheeks they were confused before she opened her mouth proudly, like a dog showing off what it did, as her mouth was filled with the steamy load the pair gave her.
“Damn bitch, ya sure you didn’t have some chipmunk in your blood!?” <Fat Man>
Shaking her head and pretending she didn’t see them quickly hardening up and looking at her with lust.
<Anymore and ya’ll need ta pay, a girl can’t live on cum alone~♥>
As she closed her mouth and swallowed she suddenly heard the thud in the distance.
<Ah, the girls must be done.>

@Basically_God did this story ever get off the ground? I see you have two others on this site, but neither appear to be the one above?
Thanks for writing!
Kaiser Mantis is unfortunately still in the planning stages since I've been taking it more seriously than the others and has kind'a been stalled.
@Basically_God No problems! Looking forward to it when you finally get the chance to share! I like the darker works. Eel is good as an MC/story but a little to bright/happy/arrogant for my taste.
The concept is cool, however, you take an ambitious and militant woman and you turn her into a gloomy, recluse, introverted, and weak willed parasite?
I have a problem with the character transition. Yes, dying that way with that knowledge is traumatic, but if that was all it took to break her character, well...she shouldn't have been where she was. I just think a little more thought should be placed into who she transitions into and consistency in her habits and instincts
Example Fuka dies choking on Lyada's d*ck after a night of intense f*cking and falling asleep doing a cleanup deep throat blowjob. She reincarnates but is meek and only wants one lover. It's just not right!
Anyway, consistency is important and even if they do change, a progression into the new character and not just a complete wipe and into the new traits is more story and character preferred...? No not the right word... compatible?...no...GRAAAA
It just makes a better story and character the readers can understand!!! It's not like I'm trying to help you or anything, BAKA!
It's more before she was awoken she also had the constant abuse and abandonment from her new family. I wouldn't call her weak willed though. When pushed she will fight back - just sick of peoples sh*t and unwilling to deal with them - reclusive yes though.
Love the Fuka example though lol
But yea, not saying too much, but the way I plan to have her isn't exactly militant... More 'expressive' but that form of expression is to cause conflict.
In her own words she's an artist and conflicting colours make the most beautiful art - more explosive the better. She is the father to Chaos after all but it just so happens one canvas is the battlefield. Just like how Chaos isn't all about 'destroying everything and corrupting order' like a stereotypical 'chaos character' neither is she obsessed with only one facet of 'war'.
At the start of the story though she finds herself in a completely different situation from her past one with no real way to expand her influence so in turn her 'child self' focus' on expanding into other 'artistic' pursuits. Her artisan/blacksmith work just being convenient and time consuming.
Even in her past life she hadn't really even figured out who 'she' was but who is better to gain insight on yourself from than...
What I'm trying to say is don't think Kaiser's first life was her 'perfect self' because she wasn't. Just like the start of her next life wasn't her 'perfect self' but yea. May have just been a crazy and confusing rant as I vomited out words but I think you'll get a better idea of her when you actually see her in action.
women in the Prussian military? that's a tough sell, considering the misogyny back then. though there's been cases of women hiding their gender.
It's our modern day but alternate world not straight after WW1
@Basically_God even then. Germany went through a lot of modernization because of the lost wars, a victorious Germany would be way more conservative and traditionalist than the modern counterpart.
then again, there's a century of space for other things to happen, so don't mind my comment too much xD
@Mortuos no, it's a huge boon in fact. It is still in the planning phase so things like this that I didn't put much thought into actually have the chance to be rounded out a lot. Of course, the simple answer is that WW2 did happen but it was Winston Churchill who did it due to a post great depression world where Germany wasn't affected due to not occurring debts and having a large amount of fertile lands that is also known as 'France'.
This leading to the good old war on two fronts with America having a more passive merchant approach that led to them recovering faster but at the cost of UK and Russia tiring themselves out on a far less affected and defensive Germany - after all if they can just wait till their enemies tire themselves out why wouldn't they?
This still did have some impacts and the role of women were increased due to amazing and heroic women who showed up to do their part in the war - whether the farm front or the front lines.
Especially in Russia who had far more lax security measures against germany with a land border - women making the perfect tool of espionage for a war torn, hungry and quickly diminishing population.
You have my interest, I would like some clarification on the relationship between the mc and the hive\harem. is mc taking wives as war trophies or with consent? Does the hive see her as a military commander or the hives Queen?
It'll be a mixture of all of that to an extent spoilers here for both stories as I'm going to explain the people she is guided by at the real start (when she actually starts becoming strong);
the Chokin-Bako I mentioned is only a nickname to a 'boogie man' like story that is actually the story of a little girl who was born from a farmer who managed to rape a warrior. The warrior of course abandoned her and the father had no care so she mostly spent her time with the animals of the farm while eating to overcome her sadness. The story goes through explaining how everyones actions towards her project one of the seven sins upon her leading to her signing a deal with a spider to become their matriarch in return for revenge on all those who wronged her (spoilers, she murders the entire town) with the final sin of all being the 8th, ignorance, as some demon hunters kill her.
She didn't die however and instead returned to the demon world as demons work very similarly to spirits as they both come from Munzumira who claimed immortality for herself as a runt among the proud lions (not getting into it but she was basically only alive due to sheer willpower). In the demon world she became the bearer for the sins of children, the idea behind it being 'children can't bear their own sins nor those of their ancestors'.
Due to this she often bless' children; know those edgy protags that seek revenge for themselves or family; she'd be the reason they're able to get so strong. When trying to do this perusal however she usually buys information for souls from Eye of Insight (the underground info dealer run by the fear monger-er herself) which came with extra levels of information. Being a childish person she obvs goes with the most expensive level which shares her past life as well as her prospects so Chokin-Bako then proceeds to pay a f*ckING UNREAL amount of souls to purchase a trainer for Kaiser who ends up being Munzumira herself. Munzumira, spoilers, is also the mother of The Dreamer who if you remember is the progenitor of succubus so she also calls her in to make use of the fact Kaiser spent a long time just getting kinky with [Insert Species, May actually make some form of pig man but not as big as orc since Chokin-Bako literally means pig lover due to her past as a farm girl] to develop her possible cultivation more efficiently.
With all these connections she gets first the insect nature of Chokin-Bako which, as a brood mother, means a lot of benefits to trickling down power towards the top as well as quick growth of numbers.
From her trainer she gains benefits in how to formulate her own techniques and the basics for some simple stuff. This trainer also provides information on how to splice other races since, if you learn anything about her, you should know she craves power due to an overwhelming fear. She comes from the idea that only those who fear everything can be feared by everything which is one of the reasons she picks up this new hatchling.
Lastly, from the succubus she gains more of a connection to her femininity. Something she honestly lacked due to her previous life where she'd only ever dated two people (and low-key cheated on her fiance with but was kind'a justified since her family kind'a heavily forced the second person/fiance on her and due to her lack of care she never really refused) and even then she just 'went with the flow' never really pushing in either relationship.
Instead she was strongly disciplined and heavily focused on her military career to the point that her hobby was making and then keeping weapons and military 'stuff'.
Because of all of this (I know it may seem I went off an a large tangent which I kind'a did but I want to give you full picture of why this is this way), she'll probably make them call her Supreme Commander with her taking harem members that she finds interest in or provides her benefit. I wouldn't say she's the best spouse but she also doesn't care if they do anything outside of their relationship as long as it's for their 'cultivation' or betterment of the hive (smaller spoilers, the hive does use other species to 'improve' themselves so technically they are more chimeric than mantis but mantis provides a strong base for them) while also letting herself be a bit more 'undisciplined' when it comes to her wives... She also likes pole dancing for a heads up though.
Not going to lie, she will get rapey with some of the more unwilling women even though she'd never directly force herself on them (from my planning). Rather, she'd prefer to 'train' them with various methods which I can see being less upsetting but obviously absolutely disgusting if done in real life. But, as I've said, she isn't exactly a good person. She won't be the bubbily, animalistic Elizabeth Jr. who can easily keep things simple and straight forward with 'as long as all parties involved consent and no third party is directly harmed but those who harmed others wave the right of consent' mantra.
She's a person who was forged through suffering other people stepping on her and thus has gained a pleasure for seeking to put others in their place. A person who believes in military domination which has thus been transferred over to her 'hive' as their 'queen' (feels weird calling her a queen due to her being a pancake top XD and me seeing a queen as having a more 'maternal' figure as opposed to her 'all packed in the back' figure). She is also a person who has learned s*x and BDSM from the literal creator god of succubus'.
*********************************************************************************************
I hope all that was helpful and if not the answer is;
-Yes to both but also everyone else in the hive is to some extent in her harem due to their nature being a cross between Spider Demons and s*x Demons as well as whatever the hell her master/teacher can be classified as. It will involve a lot of kingdom building elements most likely - so even though she's militaristic she see's the advantage of trade and slow burn takeovers. She is also surprisingly benevolent to those she considers allies and the easiest way to breach an alliance is...
-For the hive the two concepts will be one and the same. For them, there is near no difference between their entity as a people and the entity known as their military. Although not everyone is a combatant neither is that true in a modern military so she will often be called Supreme Commander but idk - still in planning state. Also taking planning much more seriously in this novel than in 'May Misunderstand'.
@Basically_God Thank you for the clarifications, I look forward to reading the story in full.
Not too much a fan of intense beatings.
Understandable tbh, if I do write it I'll probably have to include a huge disclaimer to not be or support any ideology like that of the mc in that story... Still ain't came up with a name for it yet as I obvs won't go full Isekai and borrow the boring naming convention...
Though, I'll probably take the story as a whole more seriously than I do this one and even just the eastern area in that world is darker. Though, what can you expect from what could basically be considered a set of continents abandoned by the 'gods' in a world where gods symbolize meaning.
@Basically_God Oh, and while I don't plan to do anything too 'bloody' (other than dark scenes where it's meant to not be hot like the scene I did in this series with dragon bastard and dwarf bastard as MC will actually show love for her wifes... She won't have any husbands though as they won't make it past the honeymoon period - her surname is a clue)
