Devil Slave (Satan system)

<Side Quest: Save Buckle’s Daughter>

The moment Lenny shook old man Buckle’s hand, he heard the alert from the system.

Lenny was gald he got the information he just did from the old man.

There were somethings that he had always been curious of knowing but without who to ask, there were left to just float in his head.

For example, the body he had now called his own was already seven years gone in age and he looked almost eighteen.

As things stood, he was no where a significant height in strength.

Also, it was common knowledge that even those of the the higher classes were not necessarily as strong as the lowest of demons.

After seeing that demon on the day he came that granted him an extra ration, he could tell that even demons had a structure when it came to strength.

This meant that his fight with the demons was definitely going to be a long one.

In other words, would he die of old age before he got that far?

What so ever experiment that the old man was conducting to help his grand children live longer could potentially help him.

Although Lenny was not sure if the system had a way about this.

However, a bird in hand was always more than two in the bush.

Giving this a try would not be a bad idea.

This was the true reason he had agreed to the request made by the old man.

The reward of being shown a way out of the ant colony was just the bonus.

Besides, Lenny doubted he was at all interested, but who knew what could happen?

After all, having a means of escape in case of trouble was not a bad idea.

Afterwards, Lenny ate the plate of food that the boy had brought to him.

And then it was time for action.

Lenny prepared any item with what the cave could provide that was needed.

His mission was not a hard one. Get in, grab Buckle’s Daughter and come out.

However, by the time he was Ready to leave, Bugger stood in front of the door waiting on him.

“father said I should show you the gladiator camp.”

Lenny nodded at this and the two fellows were immediately on their way.

It was not an exaggeration to say that bugger knew this place like the back of his hand.

All obstacles were either averted or prepared against to cross.

It was a smooth trip. Through the caves, they moved silently.

Throughout the entire process, Lenny did not talk to the big guy.

In his own opinion, there was no need to.

And neither did Bigger. There was a kind of respectable silence between both men.

However, that soon broke when Lenny was about to a make a turn and abigger pulled him back.

“What is it?” Lenny asked.

Bugger took a knee to the ground and observed the tracks for a while

He even took some of the Earth and brought it to his mouth to taste.

“Hide!” Bugger immediately ordered. Before Lenny even moved, Bugger had taken to his own instruction.

He immediately dived under a large rock.

Lenny was sharp and followed along with him.

After a while of waiting, Lenny frowned at Bugger.

“you are kidding me, right?”

However Bugger shushed him with a hand on his lips.

And then Lenny felt with his perception as the earth vibrated.

And then came the rattling. It was like a million rattle snakes were approaching. Or even worse, it sounded like a thousand soldiers in loose armor.

After a while more, Lenny saw them as they passed.

Unlike their usual behavior, they were not in their stealth invisible mode.

Rather, they were visible.

More than a hundred of them passed by.

At least that was what Lenny thought with all the rumbling noises.

After while, they all passed. But Lenny remained as long as Bugger didn’t move, and then both of them came out.

“that many? Where are they going to.”

“It’s that time of the year again.”

“What time of the year?” Lenny asked

“Father said it’s the queen. Making those humanoid insects takes a lot from her and since there is not enough food to quench her hunger, from time to time, she summons the other insects to feed on them.”

Lenny raised a brow at this. This was the first time he was hearing about a ant colony where the queen eats her young.

This was one very twisted colony.

Also, it begged the question. How important was it for the queen to create those failed human insects that she would even go as far as to eat the other insects?

This line of thought brought another conjecture to Lenny’s head.

However, he did not want to even remotely think it. But the possibility in on itself was very big.

Was the Queen an Intelligent life form?

The both of them continued on their way until they reached the ideal location. 𝙚𝙙𝙤𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝒎

From up high up on a rock, Bugger pointed to the location that the Gladiators called their territory.

The instruction was for Lenny to do the saving and not him.

He was absolutely not interested in disobeying his father’s orders.

From here on forth, Lenny would have to do it on his own.

Lenny nodded at him and went his way.

Bugger looked at Lenny like he was looking at a clown.

As far as he was concerned, there was no way Lenny was going to be able to steal a person from the Gladiators hands.

Apart from the fact that he could easily tell that Lenny was weaker than him, Lenny had only Left with a cotton bag.

Bugger Sneered as he sat

A distance out of Bugger’s sight, Lenny willed and the cotton bag he was holding disappeared.

It had gone into the storage in the satan system.

This was the new gift that Lenny had gotten from Lucifer.

The system allowed him to store his luggage in a private space from this world.

Back at the village, Lenny had already st stocked up what he needed that was available.

The cotton bag was just an illusion.

In his storage unit was at least 20 stone spears and piecers from Preying mantis insects.

Slowly, he crept towards the place where the gladiators camped.

Lenny looked around, but all he saw was a camp fire with some Gladiators sitting and gisting about it.

On the campfire was a clay pot and a woman seemed to be cooking. Lenny recognized this woman. She was one of the women that were gifted to the gladiators.

From the looks of it, all the other gladiators were waiting for the food to be ready.

The entire perimeter was covered with glowing mushrooms for security purposes against the insects.

Lenny looked well. He could see the boxes of food that were gifted to the Gladiators on one side, but that was all.

There was no Crusher and no daughter of Buckle.

However, he soon heard moaning sounds coming from a different direction.

Using his Assassin stealthily techniques, he moved in the direction of the moans.

If they were moans, it means that someone or rather some people were having sensual pleasure.

Such a people was considered by Assassins as a very easy targets.

After all, during sex, once senses where blocked off the environment and only saturated with the attention of pleasure.

A person in this state was a very easy target to kill.

Lenny sneaked up behind the adulterers.

It was a gladiator. He was doing one of the women that old man Buckle had gifted him from behind.

From the way he pulled at her hair till her back formed a ‘C’ and the look of ecstasy on his face, this gladiator was too far gone the rails of pleasure to notice his environment.

There was also another woman by the side that was tied up in a corner and watched as her mate was being rammed.

These were the two other women that were brought here.

Lenny gently appeared behind the Gladiator enjoying the pleasures of the flesh.

The woman on the other side saw his approach. However, Lenny motioned for her to not say a thing. she was smart enough to do as he requested.

The moment he came behind the Gladiator, He waved his hand and a piecer appeared.

With a quick move that ensured the Gladiator could not shout, Lenny stabbed the piecer through the man’s neck.

The man let go the woman’s hair and he flared his arms about as he made his last attempt at life.

He fell on the ground and went limp.

<Life Essence absorbed>

<+5 points Exp>

<+3 points strength>

<+3 points stamina>

Lenny nodded. Truly the growth was different when he killed humans.

He got more points. However, the points he got was not as much as he had gotten after killing the other woman.

Even though this one was also a D class Gladiator.

Lenny suspected that it was because of how far he had grown in strength.

In other words, continually killing D class depending on their level was going to reduce in the points he acquired from them.

Which means that if he wanted to get stronger, then he needed to kill those of a higher class.

“Where is your grand mother being kept?” Lenny asked.

“In Crusher’s cave the women responded.”

Lenny nodded at them and then he instructed that they close their eyes.
