Taming my Monster Girl Harem from Scratch

454  Training Start!

Apparently, even Fatima was unsure why she did what she just did. After a while of patting her head, she began to return from being agitated to her normal state.

Fina looked like she wanted to take advantage of the situation and copy what Fatima did, but the two beside her quickly held her back. It was sad, but well, I was planning to do something about it during this one-week outing anyway.

'It should be about time that Judy and Yorm open up their hearts to me.'

I convinced myself as such.

After all, it would be a problem if they stayed like that, still avoiding me as much as possible, when they reached the 8th or 9th stage.

Anyway, after that short trial of Ember's "New Type Exoskeleton," it was finally time to end our tour and begin on our other purpose for coming here.

Yep, the reason other than R&R—training.

Of course, Ember had a special place just for that. Or rather, her entire space was basically flatland other than the areas she had already modified and used as land for her buildings. Her entire god kingdom was wide, enough to fit the whole Heaven's Republic, and the total area she was currently using was barely half that of the capital.

In short, it was still filled with vacant lots!

Along the way, Fina kept on trying to kiss me, while Judy and Yorm thwarted all her attempts. In the end, Fatima and Ember were the ones who took up positions on both my arms.

Fang and Igni caught up with us halfway before we finally reached the place we were heading for. And just as expected, the land beyond what Ember was utilizing was flat and expansive, with the blue barrier-like border of her God Kingdom right at the horizon. "Over there, Master!"

Ember quickly pointed to the side, where the 20 succubus tamers were present. They set up a tent, with food and refreshments ready on a long table. It was almost time for lunch, so it was just perfect.

There were enough seats to let everyone, including the succubus tamers, eat together, so we did just that. The girls chatted with each other, and although I felt left out and could only listen to their chatting, I was still having some fun.

Being surrounded by beautiful ladies while enjoying a meal was something I'd rate ten out of ten for things men wanted to do at least once in their lives.

Of course, with the large appetite of the girls, the mealtime was rather short. After a little rest to let the food digest, we were then split into three groups.

One group was with Ember, Fang, Igni, Minerva, and Hekate. That group was the focus group on figuring out how to create a God Kingdom like Ember's. After all, that was the most basic requirement to reach God Level.

The other group was me, Fatima, Fina, Judy, and Yorm. This group is more focused on stabilizing energy and, if possible, reaching the next stage.

The last group were the twenty succubus tamers. I thought they tagged along just to act as servers, but it looks like they're also here to train. Well, they couldn't bring their tamed monsters along, however, so they could only train their skill usage.

Of course, as they were also willing to join in, I'm not reluctant to go and teach them a few skills here and there.

And so, training begins!

At one corner, the four 9th-stages and one god-level were sitting comfortably on the ground, with the distance between them being just right for chatting.

"So, what did you figure out while looking around, Fang and Igni?"

As if to facilitate, Ember, the one currently most powerful among them, asked.

"Me first!"

To her question, Fang was the first to raise her hands. After clearing her throat a little, she started to relay what she figured out while looking around the place.

"The entire space was made out of materialized energy, making it hard to grasp. I have some knowledge of energy materialization since I use the dark element, but this level of solidification is beyond even me."

The dark, shadowy claws that she uses frequently attach a lump of dark energy to the tips of her fingers. Although it could cause injury, it hasn't really materialized into a physical object yet, but more of a middle between solid and free-flowing energy. A pseudo-solid, per se.

"That's true."

Ember nodded.

"I made this space back when I was around the 5th stage. Back then, it was just a small pocket dimension where I hid and did things behind Master's back. But as I gained more power, the space itself grew bigger too."

"So it wasn't made in one go, but was instead nurtured to its current size?"

Minerva commented with an amazed expression.

"You're amazing to be able to create a pocket dimension even when you're only at the 5th stage! I, for one, wasn't even able to imagine doing so back then."

"I had the space element and also had the chance to study a closed pocket dimension once, so it was just out of pure luck, really."

Ember humbly replied.

Of course, the pocket dimension she was referring to was the dimension where Fatima and the Void Beast were sealed. Honestly, without that interaction, she would probably be unable to create a God Kingdom as easily as she did.

"Anyway, next, Igni. What can you share about your discoveries?"

The next one to speak was Igni, but unlike Fang, she was hesitating. She was unsure about what to say since she didn't notice anything noteworthy.

"Rather than sharing something, I have a question instead."

She turned to Ember with a curious expression.

"Where does this entire God Kingdom reside?"

"..."

As it was technically a pocket dimension, it could exist anywhere in the entire universe. However, Igni wasn't referring to that but rather asking where the "entrance" to her God Kingdom was located.

Ember smiled before explaining in a gentle tone.

"It's in my soul."
