Chapter 1325 The Monster Writings

(MC POV)
I would very much like to say that the introduction went without any problems but that would be pushing it.
I let Xun Guan appear in front of everyone in her slime form as I recounted how we met and her current relationship with me.
While I could see that most of the monsters seem to accept it with a small nod of their heads, a specific group of them seemed to be glaring at her with what appears to be clear resentment or even jealousy for some reason.
I mean… None of you are slimes that can transform into clothes right? Look, even the giant slime didn't look too bothered by her. In fact, it seemed to be looking at her with great respect.
I would ask what made it respect her but I don't want to give it any ideas about becoming my clothes too…
Feeling the tension in the air after Xun Guan's introduction, I quickly moved on to the reason I was here in the first place.
"So… Before I start… Shiori, could you come here?" I asked.
The white fox looked a little confused but obeyed nevertheless.
I tapped on the table and she transformed into her smaller fox form and leapt onto the table to sit in front of me.
I gave her a grin before reaching forward to pick her up, making the fox give a yelp of surprise as I placed her on my lap.
While she was panicking from that, I started to pat her while stroking her tails at the same time.
"Alright, so as I was saying, I wanted to ask if anyone already wrote anything yet and wants to show me?"
"Di… Divine One?!" Shiori cried out in surprise.
Over at the side, Akari was cackling uncontrollably while rolling around on the floor, obviously finding the whole scene amusing. She knew I was doing this because of the note that she had sent me about her sister actually wanting to be patted.
I ignored Shiori's protests and nodded at the others, indicating that they should just continue without minding it.
Benjamin understood and was quick to respond as though there wasn't a white fox currently squirming around cutely on my lap, "Most of us are still in our planning phases, Divine One. But I believe there are a few who have prepared something for you to see."
He gestured to the side and one of the orcs came up to me with what looked like a stone tablet with words carved on it.
"Big boss! We wrote dis for ya!!"
I stopped stroking Shiori's tail for a moment to receive the tablet from him, "Thank you Theodore."
It took me a moment to decipher the writing on it since it was quite crudely carved onto the stone.
'We fight for big boss, big boss praise us! Waaaggghhh!'
"Straight, concise, and very to the point. Really nice," I chuckled.
I was not being sarcastic since they were not familiar with the written language here and they actually took the effort to learn and try to write something for me.
Of course I couldn't use this in my writing but I still appreciate their efforts nevertheless.
The next person to come up to me was Stephanie, "Divine One, this one isn't from me but from one of the Dark Sect people who went against us back then."
I looked at the pile of paper that was at least three to five inches thick, each page being filled completely with words.
I quickly scanned through the front page and oddly enough, the writing seemed to start when the author joined the Dark Sect and started working his way up the ranks.
"Wow… Is this one of the people you raised from the dead?" I asked, flipping through the other pages quickly.
"Yes, Divine One."I think you should take a look at
"And I guess you made him write his entire history with the Dark Sect up to the day he died without rest the moment you raised him?"
"Of course."
"Err… Do you even know who this guy is?"
"Hmm… I think it's the person who was holding the orb that had sealed us."
I raised an eyebrow at her, "You didn't check?"
She shrugged, "It's not like it's important anymore. He's already dead and we've already moved on."
True that.
But if I were to remember correctly, wasn't that guy pretty important within the Dark Sect? Like one of the executives or something? It's been quite a long time already and he also wasn't really important enough for me to remember.
I nodded and pointed at the manuscript, "Do you mind if I kept this?"
"Of course not, Divine One, it was made for you after all."
I smiled before storing the pile of paper in an alternate space. I'll have to read through it at another time.
Just as I was about to ask if there was anyone else who wanted to show something, the door to the meeting room burst open to reveal Lilith standing behind it.
"I'm here Daddy!!! You should have told me you were coming!!"
She flew through the air until she landed on my back, hugging me from behind while she rubbed her face against my cheek.
"Ahhhh~ I can finally recharge my Daddynium~ Ehehehe~ What are you doing here Daddy?"
"Umm… You know… I was talking about the story thing that I wanted to write, right?"
"Oh! Is this about that?! I've written something too, Daddy! Look, look!"
She materialised a notebook out of thin air before handing it to me. It even had cute heart shaped stickers pasted on the cover and 'I <3 Daddy' written all over it.
It kind of looks like a young girl's diary to be honest and I feel bad just holding it, much less opening it.
"Err… Can I read it?" I asked to make sure.
"Ehehehe~ Of course, Daddy! I wrote it for you after all!"
I lifted the cover and started reading the first page and…
Uh-huh…
I closed it, sucked in a breath, then pointed at the notebook in front of me.
"Did you really write a smut fantasy about me and you?"
The demoness only laughed before flying out of the room like she had managed to play a trick on me.
This girl…
At least it seemed like she really wrote it seriously so I'll still read it I guess…
