When morning arrive, the incubus woke up, surrounded by unconscious women, as usual. Leaving them for his clones to handle, Alros took a bath before heading towards the Adventure Guild, hoping to complete one of his goal in coming here.

"Unfortunately, your ranks are too low to hunt Lizardmen," the receptionist said. He sighed, expecting for him to not be allowed to hunt something because of his low ranks.
Though, he did not expect for it be because of Lizardmen.
"Lizardmen are considered similar to orcs, not to goblins. That is why D-rankers are not allowed to hunt them," he explained.
"In term of size, they are as big as an orc, though their built is more slender. They have relatively same look among the same class, as different species usually have different coloring and some differences in looks.
They are bipedal creatures, with sharp claws, sharp teeth, and very strong tail, making them even more dangerous that orcs. They also can create and used simple tools, which added to the fact they are also covered in hard scales, it is hard to beat them.
Only middle C-rankers are allowed to take missions related to Lizardmen unless there are some unforeseen circumstances that require more people to take a group down.
Overall, Lizardmen are powerful monsters that you cannot take on as you are now. How about some other missions?" changing the subject rapidly, the receptionist asked.
"Sure, no problem," the receptionist let out sigh of relief, happy he was seeing reason.

"This will make things harder, but not impossible," Alros exclaimed, completely ignoring the man's warning. Then again, he only consider the receptionist warning as guidance. After all, while his disguise merely possessed the might of D-rankers, he is still a demon with strength and abilities equivalent to high B-rankers.
The only reason he asked about Lizardmen is that he hope to find a tribe and subdued them, adding them to his forces. Unfortunately, he did not get it, and could only try to find it by himself.

When morning comes, he quickly entered the Marsh, hoping that they return. To his relief, they did return, though looking like they don't sleep at all.
"Give me good reason for the delay," he asked the late clones, intending on punishing them if the reason is not good enough.
"Found Lizardmen," his eyes widened in surprise.
"Yeah, that is a good reason," and it get even better, as each clone find different Lizardmen tribe, which meant he now have five spots to hunt and claim the monsters.
-x-
Unfortunately, it turns out they did not find the entire tribe, merely finding a small gathering and hunting groups instead. Though, it is still good news, as he now knew where to find them.
Thankfully, his clones also possess good memories, and smart enough to mark the spot they find the monsters, both on map as well as on the nearby trees, the mark in question being at the top so it would be harder to remove.
"Good job, but this does mean that it would be hard to find them," he muttered. The reason for his clone to find them is because of sheer luck, one that will be unlikely to happen.
As the groups are merely hunting groups, it would meant that they might not return to the spot. But it is the only trail they have so far, and they have to take it.
"You 5, you get to spend today and tomorrow off. Have fun with the women," the clones nodded eagerly, their lust showing. Then again, the more lustful they are, the more LP he will get.
"As for the rest of you, you will split up in group of 5," the clones did as he told, the incubus looked at the group and nodded.
"The job for each group is to stay at the marked location and watch the area. And yes, even during the night. Each group will stay for 2 days each, before being replaced. So, everyone will get a turn spending their night inside the Marsh,"
The clones groaned but obeyed regardless of their thought of it.
