Chapter 13: Subordinates

All 24 of the spirit elves were standing right behind me. I couldn't even notice them and neither did Kumo. They probably followed me since they had nowhere to go. What should I do with them?

After pondering for about 5 minutes I came to a solution that benefits both parties. I would take them in so they could have shelter and I could use them for manpower. They could hunt, build, and clean for us since they are indebted to us. I let out a small grin that I quickly change to not show how satisfied I am with this situation.

I first tell Kumo and Homura about my plan which I eventually tell the spirit elves, the only reaction I get is a slight nod for confirmation. After dashing through the forest for about 10 minutes I realize that the spirit elves don't make noise no matter what they're doing. They also seem to not have a presence as well.

...

We arrived about 20 minutes later at our home. I asked the spirit elves if they needed to sleep and they just tilted their head to the side like I was speaking a different language.

"I'll take that as a no... some of you guard the cave entrance while some of you go hunting. I want you guys to evolve so you have more intelligence and I can give more thorough orders. Oh yeah, I expect a meal by the time I wake up so bring back the things that you hunted," I ordered.

I and my servants enter the cave while 5 spirit elves block off the entrance. While we lie down I ask Kumo if there is a way to make them something like secondary servants.

"No, not that I'm aware of," she responds.

"Hmmmmm, uh I'm too tired to think," I say sleepily.

We lay down on the cold hard floor and I hug Kumo. Homura also does something unexpected and snuggles up close to me which was kind of cute. The warmth spreads through us and we fall asleep.

[Day 11]

I was the first one to wake up which I didn't mind now since we have the spirit elves. Or at least that's what I'm hoping.

I get up and walk towards the exit/entrance of the cave with the spirit elves guarding them. I was surprised to see them holding wooden spears in their hands but tried not to show it. The spirit elves open up a path with me while nodding once, which I nod back. 2 of the spirit elves try to follow me to guard me but I wave my hand for them to stop which they obey.

[Barbed Tail Bee]

[A bee found anywhere in the [Mountain of the Twilight] that has a stinger in the shape of a hook which when stinging something can't get pulled out until it dies.]

There was a huge pile of carcasses of different animals right next to our cave. The rest of the spirit elves looked to be guarding it in case some monsters got tempted to steal it, looks like none of them evolved. There was a new monster which was the Barbed Tail Bee, It was about 4 feet in height and its stinger was like the end of some fishing rods. I ate 2 of the Constrictor Koi and then devoured one of the Barbed Tail Bees. As I started to finish the rest of the bee I bit into a hard part and had a metallic taste... it was its bones.

[You gained the following skills]

[Body Modification: Metal Bones]

[Flying Sense]

Oh yeah! I forgot I had wings I barely noticed they were there. I should really test them out later. I'm going to start using these body modifications at night so in case I pass out it will be like I just slept.

I decided to assign more specific jobs to these spirit elves so we can advance further. I want them to try new things so once they evolve they will already be well versed in that area and can advance further. I assign 8 spirit elves to hunting, 2 of them as tailors, 2 of them as weapon smiths, 2 of them as cooks, 5 as builders, and the rest 5 to attend to my needs. I'm going to make those 5 attendants women since I feel more comfortable around them now than men. Is there really different psychology between men and women, I guess the same genders flock to each other since they are calm around each other.

[Would you like to make [24 Spirit Elves] your subordinates]

Eh, that many... that's way too many let me try and fix this.

I decided to assign leaders to each job, the ones with 2 will have a leader and assistant. The ones with more than 2 I'm hoping they get the option from the system to make the other spirit elves their own servants or subordinates that are part of their group.

[Would you like to make [6 Spirit Elves] your subordinates]

Yes

[Congratulations [6 Spirit Elves] are now your subordinates]

[Subordinates do not have enough intelligence to receive a name]

I don't mind because I wasn't even going to name them yet.

After checking the notifications I realize that Kumo and Homura have awoken now with guilty faces. It seems like they were guilty because I got up before them and couldn't do anything for me.

"It's fine, we have these guys now," I say excitedly.

"... Do you not need us anymore," both of them said in sync.

"Of course not! I still need you guys to keep me company and guard me since these guys don't say shit," I said.

They both smiled and turned their heads towards each other smiling even bigger... how cute. I told them the roles I gave the spirit elves and showed them the ones that would attend to our personal needs.

The leader of the attendants was a clean 5'10 and very slim also while not wearing any clothes...

Wait, what! Why is she not wearing any clothes and now that I look at the other spirit elves they're not wearing any clothes. Did they follow my example and not wear any clothes. How did I not notice this earlier?!

I immediately rush over to the tailors and order them to make clothes for everybody immediately. Rushing back to the group from earlier with my face red I show the rest of our new attendants or I guess maids you can call them. Even though I was describing the leader all of the women's spirit elves were 5'10 with pointy ears, blonde hair, and green eyes. The only way to tell the difference was by their body shape. Some were slim and some were kind of muscular but none of them were chubby to my surprise. You could also say the same for the male elves but most of them were muscular. I only put the slim ones, 3 to be exact in cooking and tailors, 2 in cooking and 1 in tailoring. The muscular ones were split between builders, weaponsmithing, and hunting. The spirit elves that could fight would have a rotation of guarding the cave while me and my servants were sleeping. I also found out that they don't need to sleep which is pretty overpowered.

Anyway returning back to reality Me, Kumo, and Homura decided we would just observe the jobs today and no hunting, well after Kumo and Homura finished eating. When they finished eating we decided to check on the production of clothes and it seems like they are using rubber cotton to make clothes. They already had a set for me finished which surprised me since I assumed they never did this before.

"Have you... done this before?" I ask.

All I got was a head shake in denial.

Looks like they have some talent in this field which makes everything easier.

I put on the simple dress that they made which was surprisingly very comfortable to wear. The only thing that I was worried about was that they gave me panties that were comfortable to wear but no bra. My breasts were pretty big, I don't know the cup size since you know I wasn't a girl... and pervert. Also, I heard in my previous life that some women have back pain from the weight and I want to be in top condition so I request for them to make one. Not surprisingly they were confused which I then drew a diagram of it in the dirt. After confirming they knew what to do we moved on to the next job.
