Like that Tiki had left Evelyn alone to continue her practice. The boss had assigned her the task of finding a way using her mind magic to control the goblins that they share this forest with and it was proving difficult. 

“At moments like this it almost makes me wish I was created as a regular monster instead.” Evelyn Grumbled as she mainpluted the daze rock bear. “ Your name is Stone, little one come when called.” she said after she was done before walking a few meters away and calling out “Stone”.

The bear briefly looked at her direction before turning around and began to walk off on his own. “Stone!” She called again and once again he stopped, looked at the succubus and before continuing on his way. 

“ So he recognizes the name but doesn’t know the instructions.” Evelyn sighed to herself as she stopped the creature with a charm. “I’ll have to implant it more deeply this time,” she said to herself as she began her work yet again.

It was annoying work but it had to happen. The boss had ordered her to secure the goblins as a renewable resource and though it was tedious she agreed with her assessment that it was for the best as the resource would enable them to build up the castle until it was a much more fun and enjoyable place to be. Of course that hints at the more selfish aspect of her contribution that by helping to enslave the goblins she was not only paving the way back into the boss’s good graces but also setting herself up for more pleasure at a later date.

With these thoughts in her head Evelyn continued to toil away at perfecting her mind magic dreaming of the fun she will have when she is provide subordinates and resource to engage in greater acts of hedonism then simply teasing Tiki and raping a few goblins.

~Meanwhile~ 

“Argh” Terry recoiled as the stone bear clawed at his large breast. Putting more distance Terry returned a kick at the bear just as it had appeared to try and run away. Barely even fazed at the blow it was about to barrel past him when the Tiki immobilized it in a water bubble. 

“ Here Master drinks this and takes a break.” Tiki said as she gave him a healing potion. It had been over thirty minutes since had brought back this young bear cub and Terry had found it the perfect spearing partner.

 It was tough and resilient enough it basically wasn’t damaged by any of his blows with the club but weak and young enough to not be able to kill him in one blow.

“ So what did you think about it at that time? I did better right.” Terry asked Tiki, referring to his sparring session with the stone bear. “ It was a very good master, but may I suggest not taking it head on. It’s not good to be too eager, you know.” Tiki said respectfully.

Not for the first time that day did Terry regret the punishment he laid down on those too since it affected how they treated him. As for the criticism itself, that was the third time she had given it to him and he didn’t know how he was supposed to adjust.

“ What would your suggestion be?” He asked the dragon next to him. “ Well first you need to adjust your stance to protect your vital point, Second you need to actually aim your attacks at critical areas instead of just aiming at the head and failing wildly, Third you need to keep track of your position with the enemy so that  you know when you can attack and when you have to defend, speaking of defending, Fourth since you have no armor instead of blocking with your arms try dodging attacks and sixth…” 

“Okay I get it, I have a long way to go. Okay first we're going to start training dodging starting tomorrow since defense is so important, but for right now I am going to get a few more sparring sessions in before it gets dark. After that Evelyn should be back with the other cub and then we can decide what to do with them.” 

“ What to do with them,” Tiki asked. “ Aren't we just going to kill them?” . “ No, I have other plans for these two. There is a feature of this dungeon I've been meaning to try.”
