Monster Girl Ranching in Another World - Chapter 389 How Mad Would You Be?
“Alright, Delores, I have a question,” I said as I opened my eyes.
“Oh? You have a question for me? I suppose I can hear it out before my daughter drains you of all your blood!” The ugly face snapped.
“How do you feel about your daughter?” I asked, and the face blinked at me.
“What does she have to do with anything?!” Delores asked, and I nodded, liking the reaction so far.
“Well, If I killed her, how mad would you be? Like, oh darn, or I will chase you to the ends of this world kind of mad?” I asked, and The large eyes narrowed on me.
“If you lay a hand on my daughter, I will make sure that I kill you one thousand times before I let you die!” Delores screamed, and I nodded, putting a hand up to stop her.
“Good, good. I was just curious. Don’t worry, I am not going to kill her,” I said, and Eelyasha piped up.
“Don’t talk like you are in control!” Eelyasha snapped, her eels going wild around her body.
“Sssh! The big people are talking right now. I will get to you in a moment, now-” I started to say, but Eelyasha dove at me.
I punched her with a rock fist the moment her head popped into my bubble. The Eel Goddess was sent tumbling into the wall and smacked into it, but it did no damage to her.
“Wait! I need to know what he is saying!” Delores screamed as her image started to waver.
When Eelyasha got herself righted, the image became clear again. That told me she was linked to Eelyasha, and I could use her as a telephone in the future.
“What are you going to do with my daughter, you pig?” Delores asked in a condescending voice.
“Take her home and fuck her, just like mom. Even better, I won’t force her or blackmail her like you tried to do to me! This is really karmic retribution for what you did to Lidy, and I am going to enjoy every minute of training your daughter to be mine!” I laughed, but Eelyasha was the one to scream.
“I would sooner die than give my body to you! Dank! Kill him!” Eelyasha screamed, but the shadow figure didn’t move.
“I refuse to fight him. I will take whatever punishment after this if you survive, but I don’t think that is the case,” Dank declared and then looked at me. “You are a Sage, right? You don’t happen to know Fireden, Wataluga, Windorf, and Grogvel, do you?”
“It is a small world, Dank,” Fireden said, pressing his face out of my shoulder since there was no water around me.
“Wait! Mother, how can he do that?! I told him to attack!” Eelyasha screamed, but Delores had a worried look on her face.
“I don’t think that you are going to be able to fight your way out of this one, my precious. I recommend you give up unless you think you can win. If he does anything to you, I will kill everyone that he loves,” Delores said, glaring at me, and I nodded.
“You know me better than that, Delores. I won’t do anything to your daughter that she doesn’t want, but you have to stay away from me. If you don’t, it will be your daughter that pays for your mistakes. Now, before I go, I want to know what you have done with the mothers of the seven girls that were taken,” I demanded, but Delores gave me a funny look.
“Girls? I only keep men to feed off, so I would have no use for women. Though, I am sure that I have a few fathers. Why are you so curious about this?” Delores asked.
“Trying to find someone. An Old God that forced a merman to have a bunch of kids. The mothers all disappeared, and now the daughters have an uncanny ability to avoid danger. Does that ring any bells?” I asked.
“I might know something about that, but I am not involved in that one scheming. I am a small fish in the pond compared to that one, and crossing them would not be wise. Fine, I admit defeat for now, but I expect you to talk to me and let me see her when I want!” Delores snapped at me.
“Excuse me?! I am not going with him! I am stronger than him, and I will not become some toys for him to use! I am a GOD!” Eelyasha screamed.
Eelyasha dove at me and tried to bite the side of my neck as she grabbed onto me, but she only got a mouth full of rock. I grabbed her and pumped out heat, making the eel woman scream as I started to cook her alive.
“Stop it! You’re killing her!” Delores’ barely visible face screamed at me as she faded away, but I didn’t stop.
The healing was starting to slow, but she was still regenerating pretty fast. I wanted to exhaust her, but the screams were starting to hurt my ears.
I stopped, and the smoking corpse flopped forward on my shoulder, all her eels burned off and not regrowing. Eelyasha was still alive but in very bad condition; I might have gone a bit too far, but Harold could fix her up.
I held Eelyasha with one arm against me as she cried in pain and stabbed my arm out to the side.
“Libra, my Astral Goddess of Balance, open the Gateway to your domain!” I called out.
A tear in reality ripped open with Harold on the other side with the group of people I had tossed in.
“Well, that turned out different than I assumed that it would,” Harold said as I stepped into the rift.
“Yes, but Delores isn’t the one that we are looking for. Still, like you said, this will keep us safe from her. We might be able to get more info from Both Eelyasha and Delores if I can win them over,” I said, using my other arm to pick up Eelyasha into my arms.
“W-Where are y-you taking me?!” Eelyasha cried in my arms.
“To heal and get fixed up. I seemed to have done more damage than I had intended, but you had it coming,” I explained as Harold reached forward and seemingly grabbed the air to open the door to the laboratory I had been in before.
“Why are you healing me?! I just tried to kill you numerous times! I was going to drink your blood until you were nothing but a husk!” Eelyasha cried, and I nodded.
“Yes, I agree. You are a real bitch, and I didn’t like when you tried to bite me, but I told your mother that I would take care of you. As much as I don’t like her, and you seem like a chip off the old block, I will keep my word for as long as she does. If you try to hurt anyone, I will throw you into a world that only has sand, and you can deal with a bitchy Zodiac, got it?” I asked.
Eelyasha when quiet as I walked over to a table and gently set her down. She winced as I did but didn’t complain.
“Do I need to strap you down? Or are you going to act good? You are no longer in the world you were before, and I control this one, even when I am not in it. If you think that I am being weak or too nice, just test my patience. I will have you placed inside an Iron Maiden, and you will have spikes piercing every part of your body for endless pain,” I threatened, and Eelyasha looked away.
“I will listen, but please let me talk to my mother!” Eelyasha begged, but I shook my head.
This was about making sure that Delores kept up her end of the bargain. I could let her see her daughter, but I wanted to see if she actually cared. If she didn’t, she wouldn’t wait, but if she cared about Eelyasha, she would not attack until I confirm she is dead.
That was my assumption, at least.
“Possibly tomorrow or the next day. I need to test to see if Delores is going to keep her end of the bargain. For all I know, she could have been waiting to get rid of you, and I just happened to be the one that could do it,” I explained.
“No! My mother isn’t like that! She made sure that I was strong before she let me go on my own and always protected me! My mother won’t do anything, but she needs to know that I am alright!” Eelyasha cried, but I shook my head.
“Personally, I think that the woman deserves to squirm, and you don’t get a choice in this. Delores has to prove herself to me, or I will just kill you both. If she thinks that she will be able to attack and kill my family, she has another thing coming. You were just lucky enough to catch me along, and I wanted to get captured by you,” I explained.
“What do you mean that you meant to get captured?!” Eelyasha asked through her tears, and I grinned.
“This was all a setup. I needed info, and you happened to be the first to come and get me. Truthfully, I didn’t expect to have anyone come, but when I sensed you, I decided to let you take me and hide my powers. You are strong, and I was actually worried at one point, but then you dumbass of a mother opened her mouth. Threatening my family is the worst thing that anyone could do,” I explained, and Eelyasha looked away from me.
