Chapter 466: Preparing Monsters to Possess

466 – Preparing Monsters to Possess

So, I’m going to find a monster from the DP catalog that we can use to possess.

The Holy Kingdom is adopting human supremacy ideology. Beastman that Rokuko and the others regarded as ‘human’ also become the target of discrimination. Therefore, monsters that had a form close to humans and were subsequently transformed using [Humanization] would have fewer problems.

The cost of [Humanization] also will change depends on their base form similarities to humans. For example, Phenny, the phoenix that was obviously far from human, would cost me 500,000 DP. In contrast, Nerune, an apprentice witch whose body was already as close to human as possible, would only consume 10,000 DP.

“It’s hard to decide between bear-ear, rabbit-ear, or cat-ear. War rabbit… no Caitsith Kehma probably better, cat ear probably would suit Kehma the best, you will be so cute in that, absolutely.”

“Um, isn’t that why we choose human type? Let’s try to find something more human-like, shall we? Also, we don’t know if their face will be similar to ours.”

“Is that so? I was wondering if a doppelganger or something similar would be nice.”

It’s not like I’m going to use my appearance that has been designated as an assassination target as a disguise. But a doppelganger is 500,000 DP by itself. That’s way over budget.

“Then what about the [Shapeshifter]? Wouldn’t that be handy, it also can use Kehma’s pseudo [Super Transformation].”

“That one also way over budget too.”

It’s a type of monster that can turn into anything, not just humans. It’s like high ranking slime, should the price wasn’t an issue, the slime would have been a great choice, but I think it’s [Humanization] will exceed our budget.

“How about living armor? Wouldn’t it be nice to put on armor that Kehma possessed on my possessed monster?”

“That’s not a bad idea.”

It’s not like Rokuko, and I am going to be acting separately. If there’s a human inside, we should claim that it’s a magic armor. And you can simply make her learn the skill to transform into a human, like Haku’s subordinate, Sally the Living Armor.

And, incidentally, it would also satisfy Haku-san’s request of ‘no men’ in my dungeon, which was made a long time ago. In the case of living armor, it has no gender. If you [humanize] it, it’ll be one or the other, though. No, if it’s a man’s armor, will it be a man?

“So, let say that is my choice. What will Rokuko choose?”

“Well, if Kehma is going to be the armor, then I better choose something that fully human-like, wouldn’t I? maybe a witch’s apprentice like Nerune? Or vampire like Rei also would be nice.”

“I don’t want to use a vampire. The expenses we had to spend just to cover their weakness in excessive, look at Rei zero attack power for example….”

“Mm, you’re right.”

And we continued to flip through the catalog. In the meantime, I’ll keep the Witch Apprentice as a candidate. Also, Silky is not suitable for travel because of their house-dependency tendencies, so let’s eliminate it from the list.

“How about goblins. Maybe we could use the resurrected goblin or a hobgoblin… or maybe make a goblina?”

“No, goblins form is far from human. And I don’t want to be possessed by Gobusuke.”.

Her love in goblin fetish had no effect. It’s possible that if… no, the cost of [Humanizing] a goblin seems to be quite expensive and wasteful. Goblins itself are cheap, that’s what makes them so attractive, so it’s wrong to spend a lot of DP on one goblin. I’m sure that’s what Rokuko is trying to say.

Hm, I was a shallow man. Let’s reflect on this.

“Hey, do you know what kind of monster is Nurarihyon?”

“Some kind of old guy with a long head, he’s probably good at infiltration.”

“I don’t think I want to be possessed by gramps; oh, isn’t this Tube fox is cute?”

“The Tube fox has nothing we can use this time.”

“Can’t we put the armor on Toy, and then I’m going to hide in Kehma’s armor…? Yeah, well, it doesn’t sound that good. Let’s find something else.”

Rokuko reads the catalog further. Rokuko’s fingers stop flipping through the pages at the succubus and incubus pages… I didn’t say anything and gently let her go to the next page.

And so Rokuko looked at the catalog for a while – she seemed to have found something that looked interesting.

“Hey, come to think of it, the Holy Kingdom is following The God of Light religion, right? I wonder if angels existed there?”

“Angel? Do we have one?”

“I think we do, here.”

And I look at the page Rokuko opened; it looks like it starts at around 100,000 DP, although it will be set with basic customization. To think of it, Demons existed, it’s not surprising if there are Angels.

“By the way, I remember you used to say that Angels are disgusting beings or something?”

“Yes, they are the messenger of the God of Light. As Kehma already knows, they are the dungeon destroyer; they are my [father] ‘s worst enemy, right? So, I’m just as surprised as you are that there’s an angel in the dungeon monster… has this been around for a while?”

Hmmm. This could be quite convenient. Even if the [Humanization] is unraveled and exposed, it could even be rather convenient for all sorts of things if it’s a being that’s considered to be a messenger of the God of Light Religion.

Their page placement is a bit interesting because, in the next pages, you will find something like Dagon and Shoggoth, but we probably don’t need to mind the next page with this.

“Shall we go with this one?”

“It’s a bit unsettling in some area, but I’m sure this time it would be convenient to use this one. their [Humanization]… I don’t know how much it’s going to cost, and there’s no need to make it that strong… Oh, it has its own [Humanization] in their customize option.”

“I see, it’s an angel, it isn’t strange that it has that option.”

By the way, the [Humanization] price will increase if the base form is strong. So, yeah, moderate strength would be the best. It would be scary if the former was too strong and became too far removed from a human being. That’s what it’s all about, right? You don’t want to be found out…

“On that note, we don’t know much it will take to [Humanize] the living armor without summoning it first, as for now, we’ll have to prepare a low-level one and see if we can enhance it. Well, since we have Miss Sally as a reference, I’m sure we that [Humanize] will work.”

“If it’s not enough, I’ll share my DP with you.”

“Thank you for that. Then, based on the full plate mail type… hmm? Something about the iron armor is noticeably cheaper… is it because of the dungeon’s influence? Then I’ll make the Iron Living armor with 100,000 DP.”

So, putting aside the Rokuko, who was still thinking about how to spend 300,000 DP, I summoned my Iron Living Armor. Considering that I’m going to [possess] it, I made it based on my size. It will be about the same height, so there will be less discomfort when I’m possessing it.

So, I immediately named the summoned living armor “Narikin” (without a name, it can’t be a target for [Enhancement]) and selected the [Enhancement] option, let’s see… the DP required for [Humanization] is…….150,000DP.

For a total of 250,000 DP, I don’t need Rokuko to share her DP, and as a bonus, it’ll be able to learn [Storage] and [Create Golem] as well. Okay, Execute the [Enhancement].

The moment I selected the menu, a magic circle appeared underneath Narikin, who was kneeling. The magic circle spinning speed increased while shining brightly and then it rose from underneath it’s feet to its head and disappeared. With this, the [Enhancement] has been completed.

I let Narikin taking off his helmet, and the plain brown-haired man who was common in the Empire was there.

…Is brown hair common in the Holy Kingdom as well? I had that thought, but it’s definitely better than black hair.

“Oi~~, how it’s going over there?”

“Kehma, are you done already?’ Narikin’… isn’t that a name that Kehma uses a lot? Oh…I see.”

“It’s a good opportunity to use it. Rokuko, what name are you going to give to the angel?”

Aside from the wife setting, she is being Rokuko’s Kagemusha(shadow warrior/body double) is an option we could consider. But if she had the exact same name, that’s going to be a problem later, so something that represents Rokuko… kind of like my succubus possession name. Hmmm…

“How about Rokufa Eve{ROKUFIVE}? FIVE means five, and Eve can be your last name or your middle name.”

“… so, it’s still forming the number 695. it’s decided then, from now on, you are Rokufa Eve! Kehma, I love you.”

Rokuko’s smile made my heart thump and raced.

“Can you stop saying that kind of thing? it almost like cheating… you always caught me by surprise; it’s not good for my heart.”

“…I love you!”

Well yeah, saying it fairly also not good for my heart.

TL note:

Thank you, Jigoku-sensei Nube; you fill my childhood with useless youkai knowledge and loli.

Dagon and Shoggoth are Lovecraft universe references.

… that name… sigh…, this going to need some detailed look on katakana; here we go

So basically Kehma modified Rokuko name a bit:

RO KU KO —> RO KU FIVE, which still mean 695

From this, we need to look at the katakana

Here is how ROKUFIVE written in katakana

ロクファイブ

Here is how Rokufa Eve written in katakana or, to be exact, Rokufa ibu

ロクファ・イブ

I won’t go too much technical in this, but as you can see, he only adds one dot between her name to make a totally different name, that’s all.
