Chapter 182: Chapter 182: The Irony of Weakness!

===Adriana had her arms crossed, thoughtfully listening to what Ajacky had just said.

To explain why she was here, Adriana used an old and very effective lie in this kind of world: I was exploring an ancient ruin, some idiot bumped into a trap and I was in a strange magic circle, the next moment I found myself in that forest and I want to know how far I am.

But Ajacky didn't know much about the world, Adriana said she came from Braast, she always uses it in all her lies like that, but Ajacky obviously didn't.

So Adriana asked to visit a nearby village or town, so she could find out, as such, Ajacky said he would take her, but she needed to take care of something first.

Adriana nodded, leaving Ajacky to handle the log while she looked at the creature's corpse, feeling something of it, which made her frown with a certain familiarity.

'System, is this what I think it is?' - Asked Adriana mentally.

[In this world there are 3 categories of creatures, the Common Animals, Magical Beasts and Demonic Beasts!]

[The Demonic Beasts, like the Volatile Bear in front of you, are creatures corrupted by the Demonic Energy that is quite common in this world, the reason for this will not be said!]

'I see... I believe there is some kind of nucleus, correct?' - Asked Adriana, but the System didn't answer, but for Adriana it's pretty obvious.

Soon she took a military knife she had bought, then went to where she was feeling the greatest concentration of energy, opening the creature's chest, sticking her arm in and taking out a crystallized black ball.

[Demonic Core (Low Level): A crystallized Core that is the gathering of all the remaining energy and vitality of a dying Demonic Creature, which can be refined and used as food for magic arrays or even training for Knights and Sorceresses!]

'Since it's a Tier 3 World, then it means this creature is Tier 1, which should equate to Low Level, but I don't think it's like that for Medium and High Level, it should have something like Superior Level and Diabolical Level. ' - Adriana thought calmly.

"We can go!" - Said a much more excited Ajacky.

Adriana looked over and saw that she was only taking the lightest ones and ordered the remaining logs to take another hour.

She decided to help, not because she was kind, but because she wants some dots with Ajacky, those breasts and ass, holy shit, they're amazing!

"Aaahh! No need, I can take care of it myself!" - Said Ajacky screaming.

"Don't worry and there's that thing's corpse, it will attract wild creatures, so it's not good for you to come here again." - Adriana said calmly, making Ajacky shut up.

In less than half an hour, soon Adriana sweating a little, while carrying several logs of wood on her shoulders, soon saw a vast pasture, as well as a huge and very happy village.

"There is my home!" - Said Ajacky pointing to a house built in a Viking style, looking like one of those ballrooms, where there are many women there.

For a moment, Adriana forgot what this world is about, so she stopped thinking and followed Ajacky until she was allowed to chop down the logs.

With that, she deactivated her Astral Energy, where she was secretly forming some support to lighten the weight of the logs, she is still only at Tier 1, with 20 Points in Strength, 24, since she went up a few levels, but even so, carrying hundreds of kilos in trunk is not easy.

But Ajacky didn't notice anything, for her, Adriana just sweated, but she doesn't seem to be having any trouble, she probably thinks it must be the energy expenditure of fighting the Volatile Bear.

And tearing down the trunks, many little girls of various characteristics, some with green skin, others as white as porcelain, others black and brunette, with varying ages from 3 to 12 years old.

There must be about 1 dozen little girls here who all called Ajacky "Big Sis Aja".

'They are all your sisters wait' - Adriana opened her Map, noticing the faraway houses, but all having many points and she understood that in each house, there must be a different family

"Aja, who is this?" -A woman with long ears and dark skin approached, Adriana recognized her as a Half-Elf, she is not descended from the Dark Elves, otherwise she would have some details or a darker energy.

Dark Elves usually have sun-sensitive skin, even their half-breeds, but this one isn't bothered, it means one of their mothers was black and that's about it.

"Mom, this is Adriana, she saved me!" - Ajacky said seriously, which made the severe woman show concern and of course, curiosity!

"By Aphrodite, what happened?!" - She asked seriously.

Ajacky then told about the Volatile Bear and how Adriana killed it with ease, saving her life and even helping her bring the logs home.

His words made the surrounding children scream in amazement, soon seizing Adriana.

"Are you a Knight?"

"Can you destroy our home with one attack?"

"What does a Volatile Bear look like? Was it difficult to kill?"

The children asked several questions, bombarding Adriana, who didn't even have time to react.

But then she thought of something, pulling out her axe, which worried the Elf, but then a blue glow erupted and the sword was manifested, prompting gasps from the amazed children.

Smiling slightly, Adriana undid it, before gathering hers and opening it, showing a bluish ball, which she threw on the ground, all moving out of the way, the ball touched the ground and soon broke up in a beautiful way.

This made the kids laugh and ask to do it again.

Adriana looked at her Mana reserves and said. - "Sorry kids, but I'm tired, fighting a scary creature does that, let auntie here rest and maybe I'll show you some cool stuff later!"

Many of them were saddened and others showed understanding and patience.

Adriana was soon taken inside the house, which has a relatively large space, a large dining table and a fire pit.

And there, Adriana was given a place to sit, while she was received by all of Ajacky's mothers, in all there are 4 mothers who are ordinary women and 1 Hermaphrodite.

But she found it anticlimactic looking at Hermaphrodite, she's a pretty ordinary woman, standing around 160 cm tall, except for a fun and laid-back aura, she's nothing special.

As for his 4 women, excluding the dark-skinned Elf we've already seen, we have a tall woman with green skin and beautiful muscles, probably having Orc blood, then a short one, with a pert nose and having some similarities with Ajacky.

The last one is a human female, equal to the Matriarch of the family.

"I hear you saved my daughter, thank you traveler!" -Said the Matriarch smiling serenely, with a child that must have been born a few months ago in her arms.

"It was nothing, I just happened to be in the right place." - Adriana said calmly.

"But it doesn't change the fact that you saved my daughter, thank you so much!" - Said Ajacky's midwife mother, lowering her head.

Adriana smiled a little awkwardly, she doesn't particularly like people bowing to her, unless they're doing something special.

But it's not like she could refuse.

"I see, a very unfortunate situation indeed, but Braast I don't think I've heard the name of such a nation before, have you heard my dears?" - Asked the Matriarch to their wives, who nodded.

"Well, we are in the Kingdom of Valeeior, you know?" - Asked the Matriarch.

"Hmmm I have an idea where it is wow, I think I ended up too far from home, I'll have to travel for months to get there well, I think I'll settle in right here then, I was already wanting to leave that small country anyway!" - Adriana said, shrugging.

"Oh, but what about your family? Of course, if it's a sensitive matter, you don't have to say it!" - Said the Matriarch noticing her slip.

"Don't worry, I was born into a family of hunters and adventurers, my mothers and sisters are good at everything they do and of course I'm no exception, but my family has little ambition, maybe because of our family history, we served a lot royalty.

I think I must have been given up for death, it will help me a lot, I can return home if I miss you." - Adriana said carefree.

"Oh, I see, so you come from a very difficult family as you saved my daughter, stay as long as you like, we won't be stingy, my wives and daughters will cook you a great meal!" - Said the Matriarch smiling.

...

In a short time a delicious corneio was baked and served. Adriana, who was bombarded with questions, tried to answer what she knew, saying little about where she lived.

But the children were very curious, among them, the most curious was Ajacky, who had bright eyes and full of curiosity listening as Adriana informed about certain creatures that she had already faced.

The food was delicious and even though Adriana didn't have time to breathe, it was a pleasant atmosphere and attentively she noticed that the older girls, aged 12 and over, took a special interest in her.

It was hard not to notice, with a few hot looks here and there, winks and the like, not to mention a few wanting to touch her muscles, Adriana didn't see the point in refusing.

The Matriarch and their wives just looked on happily, naturally the Matriarch noticed that Adriana is a Hermaphrodite, hard not to notice.

Even though Adriana wears baggy pants and underwear to hold her monster, anyone who's smart will know that the reason the pants are so baggy is because she has something big to hide.

And among her 18 daughters, only 3 of them are hermaphrodites, but all are younger and have little interest in it yet.

But some of her eldest daughters, seeing how smart they are, made her quite happy, because attaching themselves to a strong and capable woman will make their lives better.

And as the village they live in has been growing in population and expanding its lands, in a few decades, it will probably have 1,000 inhabitants and finally they can set up a bigger manor.

Not to mention that Adriana is strong, if the current Chief of the Village finds out about her, she is likely to try to recruit her or marry her to one of her beautiful daughters, so that she can serve as the village hunter, as it is something that is missing.

Even though they have some warrior families, with those with Orc blood being the most prominent, there isn't someone who alone could kill a Volatile Bear with as much ease as your daughter described.

After a delicious meal, Adriana went back to her tricks, now that she had her energy back.

The Matriarch and her wives were shocked, the Half-Elf didn't know much about Magic, so even though she was surprised, she thought it must be common.

But the Matriarch and her pure human blood wife, they were shocked to know that this is not ordinary magic! Sёarᴄh the NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

His understanding of Magic extends to the use of staffs, for launching Fireballs, Magic Missiles and etc., simple and objective things.

But what Adriana is doing is very strange and illogical!

She manipulates what to them is Mana, turning it into something solid and putting on wonderful shows.

"Is this illusion magic?" - Asked the curious Matriarch, but she doesn't think that's the case, since she saw her daughters touching her.

"No, it's a family thing, I've heard that there have been entire civil wars in my nation to steal my family's secrets, but everyone who tried was annihilated!" - Adriana said smiling.

The Matriarch frowned, finding the terms used by Adriana a little strange, but she believed that was where she came from, as in the end she understood the meaning of the phrase perfectly.

(Note: Adriana is naturally using more masculine terms when speaking in general, not least because she is more used to it and it will be difficult for her, and for me as an author, to change that.)

"I see, it really is something impressive!" - Said the Matriarch nodding.

"It's not that much, my family's Matriarch can form a Tiger of about 10 meters using this magic, which could easily pass through hundreds of soldiers." -Adriana said smiling, naturally exaggerating, but she has her reasons for that.

While Adriana played with the children!

The Matriarch, Jairi, was looking at her daughter, Ajacky, their wives and other older daughters.

"My dear, you've brought home someone impressive, but know that now there will be competition as she has what it takes to be a great Matriarch!" - Said Jairi smiling with a twinkle in his eyes.

"I mean..." - Ajacky gaped, not having noticed.

"Big sister, sometimes you are so silly, but yes, she is just like mommy." - Said one of her sisters smiling with a warm glow in her eyes.

Ajacky fell silent, blushing a little at the thoughts that started to run through her mind.

"Then you know what to do, go and bring Adriana to our family, a capable woman like that, she can have 100 wives and nobody will complain!" - Said Jairi laughing, even having a tone of envy, which earned him an elbow.

"Big sister Aja, know that you may have the upper hand, but I won't lose, finally someone decent to be my wife has arrived, I won't let it slip out of my hands!" - Said a young girl of 14~15 years old, with green skin and a confident smile.

Ajacky clenched her fists and said. - "That's what we'll see!"

"Dividing is good my daughters, so don't sabotage yourselves." - Said Jairi and then everyone went to do their thing.

Adriana found herself very tired, more than fighting a Volatile Bear, dealing with children is always tiring, especially since these children are very smart and excited, some having touched her body, which bothered her, but there was nothing to worry about.

to do, it's not like she can scream in anger, because she believes she's seen as strange.

Not to mention they're kids, they're just curious, but she greatly underestimated how mature these kids are, even some 8-year-olds have understood how valuable Adriana is as a wife, so they want her.

But Adriana, of course, didn't show any interest, hardly a woman who doesn't meet certain requirements will enter her mind, one of them being over 15 years old, which is adulthood in these worlds.

(Note: Compared to the Modern Era, women in medieval times were naturally more mature, in many cases, 12 years old was already an adult, but as you may know, in all the stories, it is said that 15 years old is the adult age, that it is due to the fact that the authors of works of this style themselves have increased the adult age to avoid complications and it is the same case here.

And Adriana is no saint, even if she never touches a child, as long as she considers it adult enough, then she'll think about whether or not to get involved.)

Adriana didn't think much of it, just being more careful where her hands were coming from, thus avoiding them touching any danger areas.

And because of how kind and fun she was, the more innocent children became very attached to her, wanting to hear more of her stories, Adriana wanted to take the time to ask more about the region, until finally she was saved.

As night fell, their mothers came to get them out and put them to sleep, some of them secretly scolding.

Finally able to breathe, Adriana found herself being led by Ajacky, who was more shy than usual.

"Something happened?" - Asked Adriana curious.

"Ah, it's nothing..." - Said Ajacky blushing a little nervous.

Adriana smiled, saying nothing and went to the guest room, which is very clean and low-cut, with a seemingly soft bed.

"So, I wanted to ask a few things, could you answer me?" - Asked Adriana calmly.

"Oh, sure, I'll do my best!" - Said Ajacky smiling happily.

Then Adriana started asking about the village and how it works.

Ajacky then said about the village having around 420 inhabitants, where almost 2/3 are children, almost 290 children!

Adriana was amazed by this large number of children, but it turned out that it was due to the fact that it was a village created for that very purpose, which receives support from the Lord, since in recent years, the Lord has been expanding its borders to unknown areas.

from the jungle, for that you need a lot of population and troops!

So it is common that every 5 years, some women come to recruit pioneers and women with good physiques to fight.

If the inhabitants reach 1000, the village can become a small town, where they can elect their Mayor, who will receive the title of Baroness and more support from the Lord.

"Lord" is a special title of nobility, given to those who govern vast territories on behalf of a nation, exploring unexplored lands or taking territories from enemy nations, many call them Warlords or Valkyries.

They can nominate commoners with titles of nobility if they meet certain requirements first.

There are currently 3 powerful Families in the village, which have at least 30 women, are the most influential and take care of managing the village.

Jairi has more daughters, only 18 are at home at the moment, but he has another 4, who were already married to other families, or went to participate in the recruitment.

So far they are all alive, so Jairi is very happy and proud, since if his daughters were successful in achieving some renown, his family could be presented with a surname, as such being able to be elected to the post of Baroness in the future.

And she's not the only one wanting this, many other families want to have the right to receive a Surname and be elected to become a true Noble!

Ajacky talked a lot, showing that even though she looks so cute and even a little dumb in appearance, she knows a lot.

Adriana found the politics of the world interesting, of course, so far she only knows about this nation, but she doesn't think that other nations will be very different.

But what really interested him was this unexplored lands thing, where the System was the one who answered, because it must be common knowledge of the world and it would be strange to ask.

[In Aphrodite, it occurred during her creation, that the world has grown more than expected, as there is enough land surface for civilization to live on. Currently on Aphrodite, there is 4.3 times more land territory than on Earth!]

[Aphrodite's population, even though it is large, is not strong enough to explore gigantic wilderness areas, as well as the technology is not very good, not to mention that Magic is also very backward, if her people worked more on developing their Magic, likely that the world would be Tier 4, but it is estimated that in 874 years, at the current speed of development, the world standard will reach Tier 4!]

Adriana didn't say anything, as Ajacky is still present, but knowing this made her wonder how much is already exploited.

[Explored Lands: 58%]

[Territory Conquered: 23.4%]

Adriana didn't think about anything else, she was just grateful to know that this gigantic world still has many lands without owners, which could be an opportunity for herself.

When Ajacky left, Adriana closed the door and lay down on the bed, thinking about what to do next.

Ajacky obviously doesn't know anything about Mercenaries, how to become a Lord and such, Adriana needs money and to know where good hunting zones are for her to visit and level up.

"System, in this world, are there Dungeon Towers?" - Asked Adriana curious.

[Not!]

Adriana's eyes sparkled, she could tell that she is a Sorceress and Alchemist, who discovered deep secrets of the world and is able to create unique structures full of monsters, which will give a lot of treasures.

But the problem is in her strength, Adriana is still Tier 1, there must be several Tier 2 and 3 Knights in the Palaces, she would be captured and enslaved for sure.

What kind of Queen would allow such a capable person to create such magical structures in enemy nations?

Adriana also noted that if she did this, it would likely drive the growth of the world, where the strongest nations would be those with the most Dungeons.

This made Adriana have many thoughts and ideas, she felt so frustrated at being weak!

It's ironic, the psychopath tramp traveling from continent to continent, beating up everything new and strong, capturing and enslaving them to the System, then invading the Negative Dimension, home to wondrous creatures, who shuddered in terror at her presence, making everything to hide from her.

Smiling bitterly, Adriana closed her eyes to sleep.
