The second reason was actually simple but fu*cked up, he wanted them to suffer, feel pain, have a reason to change them into sort of demons.
Without pain, those girls would normally succumb to the warmth, and security of the family, and would never turn into executioners who executed his orders.
He knew that this was messed up as a reason but he didn't care. These girls only had the potential to be by his side, weren't by his side at the moment.
Furthermore, he was the only one who knew his thoughts, and this would be just one more of his secrets. After all, even if they found out there was nothing they could say, or do about it.
With those thoughts, Eric entered the tent where his 4 companions would be resting together with him, as he was a bit tired of the day.
In just one day he had been able to take down 3 small camps without problems. His count for the first day was 110 dead, and a few tenths injured.
His biggest gain though was the preliminary soldiers, as he had more than 250 ladies and more than 300 kids under his wing in just one day.
The night passed without many events, besides a battle round with each of them and sleeping. Since they were in a foreign land where everything could happen, they had to keep these things in moderation.
The ladies were a bit upset for not being able to enjoy more of that soul-stirring experience, but they understood the situation and didn't say anything extra.
The most surprising part for Eric was the fact that even the tyrannical bi*tch, the one that had bullied him for so long, seemed to lose herself in the pleasure now, and ask for more.
That old arrogant, and stupid bully seemed to have disappeared as she had turned into some kind of totally obedient kitty. If she continued like that Eric might as well change his opinion on her.
It was still too soon to start and make conclusions, she still had a long way ahead of her. But at least she was on the right way.
Early in the morning, Eric woke up with the 4 ladies by his side, and on top of him. The kitty seemed to have found a new pleasure for herself, as she had started to sleep on top of him.
He didn't mind that! What kind of man would mind it anyway. It was a special feeling to wake up in the morning with a woman's body on top of him, and with his monster poking her secret cave.
The poking seemed to have disturbed the sleeping kitty, as she opened her eyes, and looked at the body under her.
She was still a bit drowsy, as her eyes weren't fully open yet, but the monster under her was having quite the reaction.
It took her a little bit to finally gain clarity of the situation, as her face took a red hue. At first, she was a bit startled by the situation, she seemed to forget who she slept with, but soon reality downed on her.
The only thing she didn't understand was why she felt so safe, and secure in his arms. She liked the warmth of his body, his smell, his skin.
It was really weird, she shouldn't feel like that! She should hate him, and yet she didn't. This whole matter was really weird and complex to her.
With Eric's sharp senses he was able to quickly notice these small changes in her face, and attitude easily but he didn't say anything.
He would let her deal with her feelings and emotions on her own. But that didn't mean he was going to stop himself, so he immediately attacked her with a deep juicy kiss.
His monster was still poking at her entrance and he could feel that her love juices had started to drip as well, so without losing time he immediately raised his hips and entered her secret cave.
Very soon both of them were moaning and moving in rhythm enjoying their connection. It was impossible for their movements to not wake up the other ladies by his side.
Waking up with such a scene beside them it was impossible for them to not join the fun. As in fact, they seemed like they had been outsmarted at that moment.
It took them around an hour to finally have a turn each and finally get up and dress. As they followed Eric outside for their morning training.
Starting from today Eric would train them 4 personally on their martial arts, cultivation, and body training.
These four ladies would be his unofficial first four disciples, and he had no intention of showing mercy or a soft touch to them, even though he just had them on his bed a while ago.
His training sessions were really hard, they had to do stretching, push-ups, squats, running, and then one vs one mock battle.
It was a good thing that was still early in the morning and the heat hadn't touched the peak yet, otherwise, they might even die of dehydration before finishing their training session.
Eric was a demon instructor through and through. He wouldn't allow them to rest even a second more than needed.
While they tried to keep the noise as low as possible, they still managed to wake up the biggest part of the camp, as the kids even tried to join the training session.
Since these kids would one day become his soldiers Eric didn't mind teaching them a thing or two in the meantime, as he allowed them to join the ranks.
Certainly, their training was easier than the one that the four ladies were having. The kids weren't the only ones who wanted to join though, as many ladies stepped forward as well.
These troubled times, and difficulties they had gone through up to now, had taught them their standing, position, and treatment depended on their worth.
They would be treated well as long as they had enough value, so they saw this as an opportunity to raise their value in front of Eric.
Since most probably their life would be tied up to Eric, and they would be under his wing, they had to do whatever they could to earn his attention and favor.
Even if it meant to give their bodies to him, they would do it. After all, their husbands, fathers were dead, and they had to do everything they could to stay alive.
Hafza and Rubia were among the first girls to approach the training and ask for an opportunity to train as well.
These girls were a truly good combo, one of them had the smarts, and intelligence, while the other had the necessary determination.
The more he saw them act the more did Eric like these two girls and started thinking about their future growth and position.
It was around 9 o'clock in the morning when finally, his contact with his mercenary network arrived with another man in tow.
That guy was apparently from the National Army, which had the majority of control over the place, and his face would be needed to take these ladies and kids out of here.
The guy was a true scumbag, the moment he arrived in there, his eyes were glued to the ladies, looking at their curves, and bodies.
He looked like an extreme pervert, the kind which can't take his eyes off from a woman, and Eric didn't like him in the least.
The moment he laid his eyes on the man, he knew that this guy wasn't one to trust. But since he was wearing a mask no one knew what he was thinking about.
The moment he arrived, he started looking towards Eric and the camp behind him, while talking to the mercenary by his side.
The mercenary seemed to be in a tight spot, as he was trying to negotiate. But his heartbeat rate was unflurried.
His acting skills were quite good, as no one would have ever thought that this was just a show of a negotiation and not a negotiation.
Since Eric didn't understand the language, he had Hafza translate everything to him with a cold and angry look on her face.
Soon he even learned the reason behind that look, apparently, that army guy officer was negotiating with his contact on the number of ladies, and the ladies he would like to have service him.
And his greed didn't seem to have bounds, he wanted more than 20 women, and 10 young girls to be handed over to him if his contact and his boss wanted to have these people pass the border.
Man dies of greed as birds die of food. This saying truly had meaning at this moment, but the army guy didn't seem to be the only one who was too greedy for his own good, his contact was the same.
These guys seemed to have gotten together, and plan a way to get richer, and happier together, and that on Eric's back.
They were truly taking him lightly, weren't they? But as he thought about it, he was reminded of another fact, what about the others he had already handed over?
Since these three camps were close to each other, he had handed them over to the same contact, even though the first two times the army officer was different.
Thinking like that he became a bit frustrated with himself for not having been more careful the previous times.
He had trusted this guy because he was selected from Kirigaya Kaito, but this son of a bi*tch was certainly a rotten apple through and through.
Angry at himself…
