"AAAA"
An ogre engulfed in flames struggled to extinguish the fire spreading across his body. He roared and scratched himself, collapsing to the ground dead, his body consumed by the fire. Anlow, seeing this, spoke in disappointment, "Tsk, I shouldn't have agreed... I was an idiot."
Anlow swung his arm, destroying the wall beside him. Looking to the side, he saw a group of goblins and, with a smile, said, "Take me to your master... now!"
The goblins, trembling and looking at Anlow without saying a word, began walking towards where Katie would be, their loyalty to her forgotten due to the fear that finally dominated them.
Anlow started following the goblins he had spared, thinking, ' If Luke saw this, they would end up dead... wait, why am I thinking about them? '
"Yawn," Trins yawned, rubbing her eyes.
Five black swords cut through the wave of goblins that ran towards Trins in seconds, making the goblins who were unlucky enough not to be hit run in despair.
"Ahhhh, she's a monster!"
"We need to warn Lady Katie, or she'll be in danger!"
Trins, seeing the goblins stumbling and bumping into each other to flee from her, yawned and said, "Yawn, they finally left me alone..."
Trins created a large black pillow and jumped on it. The pillow was now floating, and Trins hugged it softly, beginning to yawn as her eyes slowly closed. Sleepily, she said, "Wake me up when you find me."
A few seconds later, she began to fall asleep, surrounded by a black sphere that would protect her while she slept.
"As I said, I respect you, so I don't want to kill you... so could you take me to where my master is?" Luke said, adjusting the sleeve of his suit.
"You bastard, just kill me. Kill me already," said the goblin, trembling uncontrollably.
The goblins in the area began speaking while trying to stay on their feet, their bodies already devoid of strength.
"We would never let a monster like you anywhere near our Lady Katie."
"You don't deserve to see her... kill me now."
"Argh... Rawww!!!!... Die!!!!" screamed the goblins, running towards Luke, stumbling while brandishing small, worn-out swords.
"If that's the case, I'll grant your previous wish." Luke clenched his left hand, and all five goblins were cut into seven pieces by the blood threads that had wrapped around their bodies.
"May you have a good rest." Luke controlled the spilled blood, making it bubble and run across the floor, flowing back into his body, climbing up his legs, forming a sphere in his palm, and then disappearing like gas.
"Well, now how can I find my master?" Luke said, checking if there was any dirt on his clothes.
"Squeak... squeak." A strange voice came from a small hole in the wall.
"A rabbit? What are you doing here?" Luke said, seeing a rabbit come out of the small hole in the wall, twitching its whiskers and surprising Luke as it began to speak.
"Hey, I know where your master is... so if you get me out of this place, I'll take you to him," the rabbit said, smiling and winking.
"Is that all you want? Well, don't worry. Climb onto my shoulder, and we'll get out of this place quickly." Luke said, placing his right hand on the ground. The rabbit climbed up his arm to sit on his shoulder, rubbing its paws against its nose.
"Thank you... I'll finally be able to leave this place," said the rabbit.
In an unknown area of the lair were Dmitry and Lady Katie.
She tapped her kiseru and blew a smoke ring that wrapped around her face, disappearing as she spoke, "The key Altair and make him the ruler."
"Are you trying to hypnotize me into seeing you naked? So, I think you're not just an idiot but an incompetent succubus as well," Dmitry said with a poker face, pointing at her.
"You don't like what you see then? That makes me sad. I was thinking of using you to replenish my energy... since goblins and ogres aren't my type," Katie said, walking towards Dmitry.
"So you're not just an incompetent succubus, but you're starving?" Dmitry said, giving a mocking smile as he looked at Katie from head to toe. Remembering Anlow and Luke, Dmitry walked towards her, getting very close to the succubus.
"How about we make a trade? Because I have a dragon and a vampire so that you'll never go hungry again," Dmitry said, seeing Katie smile excitedly.
"A vampire and a draconic sound excellent to me, but..." Katie ran her fingers across Dmitry's chest, creating a strange sensation that made him relax and feel incredible.
'Once again, this game is proving even more interesting. This ability to cause this type of sensation...' Dmitry thought, making a slight smile.
Katie, seeing this, stopped and opened her hand, placing it on his chest. "Wow... so you like this kind of thing. Good to know..."
Removing Katie's hand from his chest, Dmitry realized that as time passed, the sensation would fade, bringing him back to normal.
"I never said I didn't like what I saw, just that you need to have better tactics because some of your future targets might freeze or run away after seeing that sight. And about that feeling, never do it again," Dmitry said, back to normal.
"I can't promise that since you'll feel something much better when you feed me," Katie said, placing her kiseru in her mouth and giving a mischievous smile, turning her back to Dmitry.
"I'll be looking forward to my reward, Master Dmitry Schariac," Katie said, walking away with an intentional sway in her hips.
"How do you know my name? You cheeky little succubus," Luke said, surprised, as he clenched his fist.
"Well, you should know that succubi have special eyes, so if we don't know your names, it's better not to let them float above your head," Katie laughed, and blowing smoke, she enveloped herself and disappeared.
'This damn option, I need to disable it as soon as I get out of this place... It was a mistake to put my name as the machine's user,' Dmitry thought.
[Congratulations, the succubus Katie has just become your fourth arm. She will answer your call and come to your future meeting, Governor Tedium.]

"Once again, I didn't gain experience. I hope the reward isn't just weapons because this is taking too long, and I could already be at level 50," Dmitry said, running his hand through his hair and letting out a disappointed sigh.
"Where is Katie? Her servants are useless, and my blood is boiling." A wall collapsed, and Anlow appeared with his scales a reddish color, hot enough to melt the ground, expelling a large amount of hot air around him.
"Don't worry, Katie is on our side. It's just that she has some business to take care of, but don't worry, she also wants to fight you very much. In the meantime, call Luke for training. He'll love it," Dmitry said, waving his hand.
Hearing this, Anlow stopped and started to speak, "Training... hmmm... vampire, this could be interesting. Maybe joining you wasn't such a bad decision after all."
'This guy... I need to be careful. He's too easy to manipulate. This could be a problem,' Dmitry thought, looking directly at Anlow.
"Master, so you were here? I see you've already managed to conquer Katie, as expected of you," Luke said, entering the main room where Dmitry was, carrying an energetic rabbit on his shoulder, looking around.
'Luke should be the most normal... should be,' Dmitry thought, looking at Luke, who was petting the rabbit, and something about that rabbit didn't seem right.
"Well... we have six more arms to find, and it looks like the next one will be a bit problematic," Dmitry said, looking at the mission update.
"Hey Luke, let's train later... the creatures in this place made my blood boil, but they're too weak," Anlow said, standing next to Luke.
"What did I do to deserve this?" Luke asked.
"Okay, I'll meet you outside," Anlow said, running out and destroying walls in his path.
