230 Chapter 226: Noisy Rabbit
When we left the dungeon we appeared in a place that seemed to put restrictions on magical energy.
"We went out!" – Yue was happy to see the blue sky so she hugged me excitedly.
I stroked her head and looked around as my perception searched for any possible danger.
Comparing the appearance of this place with the records I read in the castle, this must be the Raisen Grand Canyon, one of the most dangerous places in this world and the possible location of another dungeon.
Looking around I saw several monsters looking at us like fresh meat.
Yue also noticed the monsters so she raised her small hand, but her magic couldn't materialize as this place seems to affect the stability of the magic.
Yue frowned and used more magic power to form a fireball to destroy the monsters.
As Yue was adjusting to the instability of her magic, I looked at my system.
[System Notification: A divination skill has been detected. The 'Paranoia' skill recommends not using 'Mythomania' and allowing the user's presence to be detected by the divination skill]
This may be a factor in the original plot...
It seems that strengthening my plot armor has already started to speed up the important events of Arifureta.
I let the divination skill find me and then I let Ortro out. She took the form of a huge black horse.
Although it would be more comfortable if she turned into a giant dog, the demons gained the ability to tame monsters so if I ride a giant dog with demon eyes, people might think I'm on the side of the demons.
Yue noticed Ortro and walked over curiously. - "You have a pet?"
"She's my friend" - I smiled slightly and patted Ortro's head.
"Oh" – Yue nodded and greeted Ortro. - "Nice to meet you"
Ortro just nodded as she was more focused on enjoying the caresses on her head.
"Let's go" – I held Yue and sat on Ortro's back, then I put Yue on my lap and gave Ortro an indication to move in the direction of the thread of destiny.
Yue leaned back against my body and began to rub her head against my chest like a spoiled kitten.
"And you keep saying you're not a brat" - I sighed wryly.
"Mmm" - Yue just let out a small sound of satisfaction, this brat enjoys too much physical contact which may be due to the 300 years she was alone.
Although she managed to forgive her uncle, she still resented that man so she wanted to be away from him for a while until she could forgive him so for now I am the only social link for this brat.
We proceeded through the canyon until I saw what looked like a two-headed tyrannosaurus which was chasing a bunny girl with big breasts.
"Onii-chan, that girl was among the promotional images and she was together with the protagonist" – Arisa talked about the rabbit girl.
[Name: Shea Haulia
Origin: Arifureta Shokugyou from Sekai Saikyou
Categories: Woman. Secondary heroine. Kemonomimi]
Kemono what?
This skill is getting stupid...
"I FINALLY FOUND THEM! SAVE ME PLEASE!" – The rabbit girl yelled as she cried, but I managed to understand her words even though her voice was strange from crying.
I sighed and with the black blood I formed two small steel spheres, then I threw them at the two heads of the dinosaur, killing it with ease.
We stopped in front of the girl named Shea and before I could speak, she grabbed onto my leg. – "THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SAVING ME! LET ME EXPLAIN…!"
The noisy girl was hit by a snowball causing her to fall to the ground while she was holding her head. – "It hurts it hurts it hurts!"
"Hmph" – Yue snorted jealously as she looked at Shea's big breasts.
I already told her that I have a harem and although she was jealous, her fear of separating from me was greater than her jealousy, so she agreed to be part of my harem, although she is dissatisfied that it is clear that I treat her like a brat and not as a woman.
I sighed and climbed down from Ortro's back with Yue.
From the energy trace, this girl must have used the divination skill to find me what was interesting.
Although most divination skills become useless when a Higher Entity interferes, they can still have their uses during combat when used to see just a couple of seconds into the future.
I walked over to the pitiful woman still rolling on the ground and sighed. - "What are you doing here? There are easier ways to commit suicide than getting eaten by monsters"
The girl looked at me for a moment and then jumped up to hug my leg. – "Uwaaa thanks for saving me! Shea was too scared! I've been looking for you all day! Uwaaaa I'm so happy to meet you! I knew you would help me!"
…God, too much noise…
Yue seemed to want to hit Shea again, but she stopped when she heard the rabbit girl's words. She seemed interested in the fact that Shea seemed to know we were coming.
"Luis…. Let's listen to her for a moment, but first…let him go" – Yue pointed an ice stake towards the rabbit girl.
"Uwa I'm sorry, but I'm not letting go! I need you to help me!" – Shea was stubborn in holding my leg.
I sighed, gestured for Yue to calm down, and then patted the noisy girl's head. – "Fine, she just stops crying, you are giving me a headache"
Shea seemed to enjoy patting on the head, but she still looked at me doubtfully. – "Will you listen to me without leaving?"
"Yeah, just talks fast" - I sighed.
Shea looked at me for several seconds until she nodded and stopped hugging my leg, but her hand was still holding the corner of my pants.
Shea told us about her situation.
In short, she comes from the Haulia Tribe, a rabbit people subspecies of the beastkin race of this world.
The Haulia is a pacifist group with no magic or combat talent so they lived peacefully as farmers.
Shea was born with a special genetic trait, she not only possesses magic but also possesses the skill to see the future and this skill is strongest when it comes to her own survival.
Rather than this being a good thing, other beastkin races saw Shea as a monster, similar to Yue, who possesses a special regeneration skill. At this point, Yue sympathized with Shea and even viewed her with some kindness.
Shea's tribe turned out to have strong family ties as they did not hand Shea over to be executed, instead, they decided to head to the mountain range, but on the way, they were found by Empire troops who captured more than half of the tribe to sell them as slaves since the members of the rabbit tribe are beautiful so they are requested as pets.
The rabbits that managed to escape headed to this valley where magic cannot be used, but the monsters started attacking them.
Shea had a vision where I would be the one to help her survive, though her vision was blurred so she doesn't know the methods I'll use or the price I'll ask.
"I beg you! Save my tribe please!" - Shea acted like a damsel in distress.
"Hey Listen! Have a rabbit barbecue with the men while you have an orgy with the big-breasted bunnies!" – Navi began to fly in front of my face.
"What's that?!" – Shea pointed to Navi.
I have already verified that the existence of Navi will not give me away as a system user since it is not strange if a fairy accompanies a hero, but it is still a headache that this idiot does what he wants.
We already reached an agreement, he can't go out when I'm Seiji, but I'll let him go out when I'm Luis on the condition that he stops doing stupid things with the system.
"Hey Listen! I am the protagonist of this stupid story! Now kneel before my greatness!" – Navi shouted stupid things like always.
I sighed and put my hand on Navi, then activated [Sadism].
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH YOU FUCKING INCESTUOUS AND TSUNDERE BITCH !" – Navi collapsed on the floor.
I sighed. – "Fine, I will help you, but it will not be free"
Shea looked at Navi and swallowed a little fearfully. – "Em, what was that thing referring to when he said having a rabbit barbecue and an orgy of bu-bunnies?"
Yue stared at me waiting for my answer.
I shrugged. – "In this life nothing is free, I can protect you as long as you are my lover, as for your tribe, they will have to pay for the help"
"Pervert" – Yue pouted.
Shea blushed at my words, then paled as she realized that that would mean making the women of the rabbit tribe my lovers, then blushed again as she understood what 'bunny orgy' meant, and finally paled as she realized that I am a degenerate.
"It's like seeing a broken traffic light" - Arisa smiled wryly at the change in color on Shea's face.
"Maybe she's a chameleon instead of a rabbit" – Coco looked confused.
"Well, her bunny ears are cute" – Tsubaki smiled slightly.
"Senpai is furry so senpai can't ignore a cute girl with fluffy ears" – BB sighed with mock disappointment.
"What the fuck is a furry?" - I sighed internally.
"They are humanized animals that incite the sexual desires of zoophiles" - BB shrugged.
"Furries are not zoophiles" - Coco sighed. – "A zoophile wants to have sex with a dog, a furry wants a dog girl, they are totally different things"
… My neurons are committing suicide…
"You're wrong" - Arisa denied with disappointment. – "A kemonomimi is a girl with animal features, a furry is an animal with human features, kemonolover is different from furry and therefore a furry is a repressed zoophile while a kemonolover is a moe lover"
"Kemono is the first step of a furry" - BB smiled contemptuously.
"You may like fluffy ears and maybe a cat or fox tail, but as long as the genitals are human then it's not furry" - Arisa glared at BB with hostility.
BB sneered. – "What about the harpies? Pap■ from Monst■■ Musu■■ is a bird and even lays eggs, but her genitals are human"
"It doesn't count, in that anime, the real furry is the trainer cat, as long as her fur doesn't cover more than 40% of the body then she's not a furry" - Arisa...
"So what's up with a mermaid? Her genitals are from a fish" – BB…
"Hmmm, let me think about it" – Arisa…
[System notification: The energy 'Anti-Rasen' has blocked the voices of the entities in the user's Core of Existence]
… Better…
"Let's help her" – Yue smiled with complicated feelings towards the bunny with a chameleon complex.
She's lucky she doesn't hear stupid conversations inside her mind...
I sighed. – "I will think about it, but my conditions are clear"
Yue sighed, she wanted me to agree to help Shea without asking for rabbit women as lovers.
Shea blushed but looked at me determinedly. - "I will do it…"
I smiled wryly and patted her head. – "First let's get out of here"
I motioned for Shea to climb onto Ortro's back behind me.
She was still a little blushed, but she climbed on Ortro's back anyway and hugged my back.
I rattled the horse's reins and we headed for the exit of the canyon.
As we traveled, Yue started talking to Shea to explain a bit about our strengths so that Shea would feel more at ease.
"Does that mean you guys can manipulate your magic power at will and use special magic?" – Shea sounded surprised and excited since people with special skills are usually branded as monsters.
From what I've researched, people with unique skills are considered descendants of gods, but the truth is that they're just genetic mutations.
Although these abilities are strong, the church has made the non-human races view these people as monsters, thus the unique abilities became an exclusive resource for humans while other races eliminate their own geniuses.
"Yue has a great affinity with magic and a regeneration skill" - I smiled slightly. – "As for me, well, I have great strength, reflexes, resistance and I am resistant to magical energy, basically Yue is a genius magician while I am an excellent warrior"
Shea pressed her face into my back and began to cry.
The stress of being branded as a monster severely affected her emotional stability and if it weren't for the fact that this girl has willpower far superior to most people, she would have already broken as she feels guilty about the problems facing her tribe.
"The rabbit is crying" - Yue looked at Shea while she kept hugging my body like a spoiled child.
"I'm sorry, I was very happy when I thought that I'm not alone anymore..." - Shea kept crying with happiness.
We had to pause at the poignant moment as there was a group of monsters in front of us.
Although those monsters were weak, they were chasing people with rabbit ears.
Using [Mythomania] I simulated throwing a stone bullet spell and fired several blood bullets that destroyed the monsters.
Shea was excited to see her tribesmen so she started waving her arms as she pressed her breasts to my head. – "Hey! I came with someone to help us~!"
The horse stopped so Shea climbed down to greet the rabbits.
I went down together with Yue and looked at the rabbits.
Whether they were male or female, their appearances were attractive which explains why they are regarded as high-class pets for nobles.
A rabbit man approached me with a respectful attitude after talking to Shea. – "Is it okay if I call you Luis-dono?"
Why the fuck are there Japanese honorifics in a world set in medieval Europe?
Whatever…
"Just tell me Luis" - I massaged my forehead tiredly.
The man nodded. – "Thank you very much for helping us, I am Shea's father and the chief of the Haulia tribe, my name is Kam… How can I thank you for saving our tribe?"
"Hey Listen! Give all the rabbit women! Single onee-sans, naive lolis, and married milfs! Everything belongs to the Harem King!" – Navi appeared at an inopportune moment.
"…"
"…"
I sighed tiredly. – "I have no interest in slavery, but if any woman from your tribe is willing to have a relationship with me it will be more than enough, besides, your entire tribe will become my subordinates"
Although the population of my two worlds has grown with the non-human races of the magical world, the problem is that most of my subjects are warriors and I am starting to need farmers since magical resources have a certain level of consciousness so using machines harms those crops so I will need more farmers who really love and respect nature.
Shea's father nodded without reluctance. – "We will do our best to help our savior"
"Hey Listen! Where's the bunny orgy?!"
I sighed and pulled out a burger. – "Shut up or I won't feed you"
"…" – Navi silently looked at the hamburger.
I gave him the food and headed down what looked like a stone path out of the canyon.
This road was built by the Hoelscher Empire, a human nation of this world with a meritocratic governance system based on strength, basically the biggest fist is right.
Although this has caused the people of the Empire to be idiots who only understand the language of violence, it has also made them a strong nation despite having only a short time since their founding.
Truth be told, this system of government would be one of my favorites if it weren't for the people of the Empire without racist idiots who see non-human races as inferior creatures who only serve as slaves.
Ortro returned to my Core of Existence. For now, she will be a magic horse to avoid the suspicion that my abilities are equal to Seiji's.
Shea seemed curious so I smiled slightly. – "She is a magical familiar"
"Oh" – Shea nodded. – "By the way, do you really agree with this?"
"With what thing?" – I pretended not to understand.
"Further ahead are the troops of the empire and at this rate, you will have to fight against other humans..." - Shea seemed to feel guilty since, in order to protect her tribe, I will have to fight against members of my own race.
I sighed. – "Do you know what the greatest enemy of a human is?"
Shea looked at me in confusion. - "A demon?"
"No, is another human" - I smiled bitterly. – "Humans are creatures that confront other races and ourselves for interests, racism or mere fun"
Shea seemed uncomfortable with my words as it is impossible for her to think of harming her own race.
I sighed. – "Shea, I am a selfish and violent human, since you agreed to be my lover it means that I will kill any idiot who wants to hurt you, be it a demon, human, beastkin, or deity, everything can go to hell"
Shea blushed, though she still seemed concerned by the aggressiveness in my words.
This tribe is based on beliefs of peace and love, basically hippies with bunny ears. Even though Shea has a kind heart, she didn't show any reluctance towards my attitude and actually showed determination.
"I understand... I... I'll try to be strong..." - Shea looked at me with determination, although she still seems nervous.
Behind us, Shea's father looked at me with a smile. The man already considers me his son-in-law.
I smiled, finding Shea's attitude a bit amused, and continued up the stone path.
"I also?" – Yue held my hand.
I sighed. – "You are a brat"
Yue pouted and tightened her grip.
I smiled bitterly. - "I'll think about it"
Yue was still unsatisfied with my answer, but she wasn't pushy.
We reached the exit of the road and I saw several soldiers who were surprised to see us, but they seemed to think that I am a slave trader and that is why Shea was by my side.
A man approached me with an arrogant expression to which I sighed before the idiot could speak. – "Let's talk like civilized people, you let me pass and you do not cause me problems, in return, I will not force you to eat your own heart… Do we have a deal?"
The man raised an eyebrow and drew his sword aiming at my neck as his gaze went to Yue. – "I see, you're just a damn brat who doesn't know his place… To begin I'm going to cut off your limbs! Then I'm going to rape that girl in front of your eyes!"
I sighed. – "Well, I tried and I am a man of my word"
My left hand grasped the sword and broke it easily, my right hand struck his chin to dislocate his jaw.
With my left, I went through the man's chest to take out his heart, and then I made him swallow his own heart.
The man fell to the ground causing the other soldiers to get to their feet and draw their swords.
My arm began to give off a scent of burning meat as my shirt sleeve burned off showing my arm with horrible burns.
A chain began to wrap around my arm as one of the Blades of Chaos appeared in my hand.
I threw the sword towards the soldiers and with a smooth movement, the sword made a horizontal cut splitting all the soldiers in half.
Because this weapon is now made of black blood, I can extend the chain almost infinitely as long as I have black blood on my body. Consider that the amount of black blood in my body could flood the planet Earth three times.
The sword returned to my hand and turned to ash leaving only burn marks on my arm.
Due to the summoning, Luis will be considered a hero just like Seiji so I plan to make Luis be seen as a violent hero while Seiji is a cunning hero.
Seiji will be known for elaborate tactics and the quest for coexistence between species, on the other hand, Luis will be an aggressive hero who confronts problems with violence and is always head-on.
The Blades of Chaos will be the hallmark of Luis so I will make them think that they are a cursed weapon that causes extreme pain to the user and that is why I will leave the burns on my arms.
Although some entities know that Luis and Seiji are the same person, I am sure that I can keep up the lie at least until I am able to use 100% Rasen and Anti-Rasen.
I sighed as my shirt sleeve regenerated, in this world self-repairing clothes are a valuable item, but not impossible to come by.
"Wouldn't it have been better to let him go?" – Shea asked me with a bit of fear and sadness.
I sighed and looked into her eyes. – "You are right, I should have left him to go back to the Empire and tell everyone that a powerful human is protecting a non-human tribe, so the Empire can mobilize several troops to persecute us causing our tragic deaths"
Shea looked down.
Shea's father was quick to apologize. –"Sorry, it's just that we are not used to these violent scenes…"
I sighed. – "I will make it clear since I hate useless dramas… I am not a kind person, if an idiot causes me problems I will kill him without hesitation and if you cannot accept this then you are free to leave, this is the last chance"
"I…I…" - Shea's eyes got teary. - "I am sorry! I won't complain again, but please don't leave me! You are our only hope! I will be strong and fight, but don't go!"
…
"Bad Luis" - Yue scolded me and began to comfort the rabbit girl who wouldn't stop crying.
I sighed, I'm not good at dealing with brats...
We took the knights' horses and carriage and headed towards the forest where the non-human races lived and the location of another dungeon, the Sea of Trees.
"Ne, senpai, we have come to a conclusion" – BB spoke to me as we headed to the forest. – "After much discussion, we finally agreed on a scale to determine if a girl is kemonomimi or furry"
....
"I don't want to listen" - I answered with apathy, I feel that my intellect is reduced with every word I hear.
"Here it is! *Image pops up epic*"
….
It had been a while since my last suicidal impulse….

Author's Note:
Lately, the chapters are getting longer because I extend myself in the stupidities and I can't stop...
By the way, I'll leave the image of the furry scale attached in case anyone is curious.
