“Mama!” Leah cried out in alarm when she saw Lux enter the room carrying her unconscious Mama in a blanket.

“What happened?!” Alexa immediately checked her mother’s condition as soon as Lux laid her down on the bed.

“Ronan knocked her unconscious and tried to rape her,” Lux replied. There was no time for him to sugarcoat things, so he bluntly told the truth.

“Impossible!” Emily immediately rejected Lux’s words. “Uncle Ronan would never do such a thing!”

The pretty girl was about to follow up on her declaration, but when she saw Barca enter the room, a scream uncontrollably escaped her lips.

This was the first time she saw a scary-looking Monster, and it made her faint.

“Eiko, swallow her,” Lux ordered.

“Pa!” Eiko obeyed her Papa’s orders and swallowed the unconscious girl, which made Leah’s and Alexa’s eyes widen in shock.

“Don’t worry, your sister is safe,” Lux explained. “Eiko just stored her inside her body, and didn’t eat her.”

Leah, who treated Eiko as her new friend, picked up the Baby Slime and lightly shook her body.

This act made Eiko giggle as her body jiggled due to Leah’s shaking.

“Take this, Lux,” Barca said as he took a purple potion bottle from his storage ring. “This will wake that woman.”

Lux didn’t hesitate and, with Alexa’s help, he gently poured the contents of the bottle inside Sarah’s lips.

Half a minute later, the beautiful woman’s eyes fluttered open as she regained consciousness.

“Mother! Are you fine?” Alexa asked worriedly.

“A-Alexa?” Sarah winced due to the sudden yet fleeting pain that she felt inside her head. Her mind felt groggy and she still couldn’t think properly. However, when the memories of what happened earlier came back to her, she almost bolted out of the bed to summon her weapon.

Fortunately, instead of seeing Ronan, the first man he saw was Lux, which made her regain her composure.

“Where is that bastard Ronan?” Sarah asked. “And who is he?”

Sarah also noticed Barca at the corner of the room, which made her frown. But after sensing no hostility from the Half-Orc, she lowered her guard as she tried to assess their current situation.

Even so, she could hear loud explosions going off in the surroundings as if they were currently in the middle of a battlefield.

“Ronan has been dealt with temporarily, but he will most likely be back,” Lux explained as calmly as he could. “We need to get out of here now before his reinforcements arrive. Your daughter, Emily, has already been swallowed by Eiko. She’s safe now. If we want to escape from here, all of you must cooperate with me and allow Eiko to swallow all of you.”

Sarah took a deep breath before looking at her eldest daughter with a solemn gaze.

“Leah, Alexa, we need to leave our home to see your father,” Sarah explained. “Right now, our family is facing difficult times, and I am afraid that without your father here, none of us will be safe.”

“I understand, Mother,” Alexa nodded. “I will cooperate.”

“I will cooperate as well!” Leah said while still holding Eiko in her hand.

Lux looked at Sarah’s two daughters and smiled. “Good. Don’t resist and allow Eiko to swallow the two of you. We need to leave at once.”

Half a minute later, Alexa and Leah were stored inside Eiko’s body. The Baby Slime was about to swallow Sarah next, but unexpectedly, the Maid of the House, Marie, as well as the Ousborne Family’s other retainers, rushed into the room with anxious looks on their faces.

“My Lady, Monsters have started to appear in the residence!” Marie reported as she tried to cover her torn dress with a towel.

“Marie, what happened to you?” Sarah asked as her face distorted into rage.

“Nothing happened, My Lady,” Marie replied. “Monsters suddenly appeared out of nowhere and attacked the people that tried to… that tried to.”

Marie couldn’t bear to continue what she was going to say and simply burst into tears. The other Maids cried as well, while the injured soldiers looked down on the floor as if they were ashamed for not being able to protect their Master’s Residence from those who tried to defile it.

More explosions reverberated in the surroundings, and this time, shouts of fear, anger, and surprise could be heard from outside of the residence.

“Can we take them with us?” Sarah asked. “They’ve been loyal to our family for years. I can’t bear to leave them behind like this.”

Lux sighed before nodding his head. “Eiko, summon your clones.”

“Pa!”

Sarah explained to their retainers to not resist as they got swallowed by the clones of the Baby Slime that would take them to safety.

“You too, Lady Sarah,” Lux stated. “Allow Eiko to swallow you as well.”

“Thank you, Lux,” Sarah replied. “Good luck with your escape.”

Lux gave Sarah a reassuring smile, despite the fact that he was feeling very anxious about their current situation.

Once Great General Garret’s wife was stored safely inside Eiko’s body, Lux finally glanced at Barca and nodded his head.

The Half-Elf jumped outside of the window and gazed at the smoke that was rising up from the Noble’s District due to the battle that was raging between the Four Orc Warlords, and the High-Rankers that accompanied Ronan to the Ousborne Residence.

“Arise!” Lux raised his hand and summoned his Undead Legion to his side. He also summoned his Clones, further increasing the number of fighters that would do his bidding.

Eiko copied her Papa’s Skills, further increasing the number of Undead Warriors, Steel Golems, and Plague Wing Gargoyles.

“Hahaha! What a sight!” Asmodeus chuckled as he, too, summoned his clones and unleashed his own Undead Legion. “To think I would live to see this day. Um, I mean… to think I would die to see this day!”

Currently, Lux’s army numbered over a whopping 25,000 strong. Most of the Undead Army was summoned by the 50 Liches, who could revive 50 zombies each.

Since Lux’s, Eiko’s, and Asmodeus’ clones could summon these Liches as well, the number of Undead in Lux’s Arsenal swelled to such a degree that he could destroy a town if he wanted.

“If possible, avoid killing people,” Lux ordered. “Our goal is to ruin Ronan’s reputation. I’ll leave this matter to you, Asmodeus.”

“Understood, Master,” Asmodeus patted his chest with confidence. “Leave this to me. Please, escape the city as fast as you can.”

Lux gave the city one last glance before asking Eiko to swallow him.

“Mistress, be careful,” Asmodeus said softly. “Draven, protect them.”

“With my life,” Draven replied as he merged with Eiko’s shadow.

The three Baby Slimes, with Eiko as the lead, burrowed into the ground. There was a barrier protecting the city, but it didn’t cover the earth below. Because of this, Eiko managed to sneak past it, helping Lux to infiltrate the city.

She was going to use the same method in order to escape it, and bring her Papa and the people inside her body to safety.

Asmodeus, who had been given full control of Lux’s Undead Legion, used the skill Skeleton Make and created a Megaphone that would allow his voice to be heard through the entirety of the city.

“Listen, Citizens of the Haca Dynasty!” Asmodeus shouted. “Today, our Great Commander, Ronan Asinus, declares a coup against the Royal Family! Those who have long wished to replace the Tyrant King should rise up and join our cause! All forces attack the castle!”

The Undead Legion then rushed towards the Royal Palace, making those who were in the way scream and run to safety.

The Unholy Army didn’t even give these people a second glance as they executed their mission.

A mission that would go down in the history books, and would be retold countless times by historians in the years to come.
