Demon Emperor's Rise: Becoming The Greatest Villain For My Daughter

Chapter 64 Savor The Rest





"Huh?" Benimaru appeared after seeing the notifications in front of his eyes. However, his surprise mostly came from the drop he got from killing Garner.

"I actually got a weapon set... This feels more like the MMORPG games people played on earth." After expressing his wonder, Benimaru happily picked the rewards, as he didn't mind any free stuff he would get.

The other rewards were from the urgent task he got just before arriving at Garner's base. 

Benimaru rubbed his chin, glancing at a certain reward. "Nine Grade-9 Enchanted Beast summons… Is it a specified beast or random? Well, it doesn't matter, all will be workers under me anyway."

Afterwards, Benimaru picked up Garner's dead body and ran toward his base. "I hope we can make some good stuff from his body."

Benimaru had read that many demons' bodies could be used for making weapons, potions, and even ornaments in some cases. Garner was someone with a high-ranking bloodline, at least, so Benimaru felt his dead body might come in handy later on.

In just a minute or so, Benimaru arrived before Garner's base while crossing the devastated path that they had created through their fight. 

"Huh?" Benimaru got surprised when his eyes laid upon the base. He saw rows of Garner's underlings looting the treasures of this place and gathering them in one place. That place was guarded by three people with whom Benimaru was very familiar: his general and one soldier. 

Benimaru was concerned while heading there that Garner's underlings might have escaped and taken the treasures away too. But it looks like he was worrying for nothing. Also, the reason he wasn't worried about Ravenna's and others safety was because he believed in them, he believed in their strength, and that they would easily take care of their adversary. 

Benimaru's arrival was instantly noticed by Ragnar, Ravenna, and Lagnir. They turned their heads in his direction and warmly welcomed him.

Benimaru walked before them with a smile and asked. "Are you guys? Had any trouble?"

"Uh…." Ragnar was stumped, as he didn't know what to say. He knew that the things did get very worse.

"No, it went very well. Ragnar was able to hold himself till I woke up, and after that, all went relatively easy." Ravenna answered, seeing Ragnar struggle. Also, she couldn't let Benimaru worry about them. 

"Good." Benimaru nodded in satisfaction and was happy that his belief in them wasn't wrong.

Ragnar, who heard this from Ravenna, almost had a tear in his eye. He swore in his heart. 'I will protect Miss Ravenna even if it costs my life.'

Benimaru then changed the subject. He looked at his future workers, who were standing dumbfoundedly now after seeing Garner's dead body in his hand. "You guys all did a good job handling the situation here, saving so much time. How much treasure is still left?"

Ragnar made a rough estimation, giving a glance at the pile of treasures. "Not much. We will be done in seconds."

"Okay, I will check something until then." Benimaru nodded his head and went on to sit on a wooden bench that was poorly made. 

Benimaru wanted to check his rewards and decide what he could do with them. But that was interrupted by Ravenna. He looked up and saw Ravenna preventing the sun from reflecting on him. He asked curiously. "Is there anything wrong?"

Ravenna didn't answer immediately, stayed silent, hesitating to speak. But eventually she picked up her courage and said, bowing toward Benimaru. "I am sorr-"

However, Ravenna wasn't able to finish her bow and words when she felt a sudden obstruction, as if someone was holding her from bowing. She opened her eyes and saw Benimaru grabbing the top of her head. He said this, looking at her nonchalantly. "You don't have to apologize. It wasn't your fault anyway. Just be more careful in the future. Also, it was my fault for not giving you something that would alert us if you got into trouble."

Benimaru shoved her head up, letting her body straighten. Then he said it while waving his hand. "Now if you want to rest, then sit beside me or go work if you like it."

Ravenna got embarrassed and very happy to see Benimaru not even slightly mad or concerned about the mess she caused. This wasn't her fault for thinking like this, as it was engraved in their soul. Mostly the succubus race, as they were known to be just the display and plaything of lords. They couldn't do anything wrong to make their lord sad or disappointed.

Ravenna went to work happily, not trying to disturb Benimaru, as she felt he needed some relaxation.

Benimaru watched silently as Ravenna trotted to her work. He smiled to himself. 'What a silly girl.'

Tossing these useless thoughts away, Benimaru focused on his rewards. 

'I can give this bow and arrow set to Ravenna after returning to our place. It is better to have more options while fighting, which might come in handy. The summons… I will see what I get from them. I will use them based on their abilities.'

'Lastly, these gold coins and mana crystals. These things will be more useful for building a base than other stuff.'

'Well, that was short, but it is better to plan things out rather than think of doing them later.'

At that moment, Ragnar called him. He raised his head and saw Ragnar waving his hand. "Lord, we are done!"

Benimaru got up and said, "Let's go."

Half an hour later, Benimaru and others arrived at their base. 

The treasures were carried by Benimaru's new workers while they were guarding them from all sides, to not let them get attacked by anyone or anything.

Just as they arrived, they were faced by Fiain and a couple of meatscrapers with sharp sticks.

Fiain, who was at guard first, dropped it after seeing it was her lord.

She came before him and gave a short bow. "Welcome back, my lord."

"It looks like you did a good job guarding the place." Benimaru nodded his head in satisfaction, seeing Fiain being so diligent. 

Benimaru looked back and said. "Put all of these things in place and rest. We will be working hard in the days to come. So, savor it."
