Taming my Monster Girl Harem from Scratch
Chapter 164 Ten Thousand Servants
As the red magic circle glowed in an eerie manner, the ground around us was covered by hundreds of the same magic circles, but smaller.
"Be careful, everyone!"
Ying Yue shouted as the same magic circle also appeared inside the barrier. The girls quickly moved to a space that was farthest from any magic circles and prepared to attack at any moment.
"Leave this to me."
Goddess Blanc quickly moved and created a barrier around the magic circles, isolating them from our space. A moment later, a bright flash of light emerged around each magic circle as a figure appeared on top of them.
"Sh*t! This is bad!"
I shouted in chagrin as I realized what the figures were.
They were all the female tamers who got the Succubus Lord's bloodline. What's more, of the tens of tamers that appeared from the magic circle inside the barrier, a few of them had familiar faces.
"There are even tamers from the Seimei family!"
I looked over at the two goddesses, but they just frowned at the scene. All the tamers had red eyes, as if they were in a berserk state. They should be more powerful than before, which is a pain to deal with given that there are even 8th-stage tamers among them.
"Will..."

"Will, I know this isn't fair, as I told you to not use it willy-nilly, but I want you to place every tamer under the Succubus Lord's control into a Servant Contract."
I tilted my head at his words.
"Can't you just enclose them in a barrier, like what Goddess Blanc is doing?"
There's no need to contract them if they can't affect the battle anyway. However, to my words, God Zeshion shook his head.
"Look behind you."
"?"
As I turned around, I quickly noticed that Ember and the others were already fighting a fierce battle against the controlled tamers.
"What?! How did they break the barrier?"
As I was turning my head at rapid speeds, trying to understand the scene, God Zeshion patted my shoulder three times.
"They're similar to Ying Yue here, possessing immunity to control skills. They also can't get forcefully teleported, even by Zeta."
"..."
As someone who experienced how hard it was to restrain someone with control skill immunity, I can't help but frown. Just with a quick count, there seem to be thousands of tamers under the Succubus Lord's control. If we want to restrain all of them, then we'd need at least twice that number.
"Can't we call for backup?"
I asked just in case, but Zeshion shook his head at this.
"I asked Zeta to request backup from the country, but it looks like they can't send any help. Mysterious bats appeared all over and needed the hand of the army to handle them."
I recalled how I sent Fang, Igni, Wan Li, and Wan Er, together with their tamed beasts, to clear the bats that appeared near the town. Although each bat should be at the 4th stage in terms of power, they would be about as strong as a 6th stage when they are in a swarm.
With no hope for backup, we can't subdue them all at once. I sighed.
"... Alright. I'll do it."
Zeshion smiled as if expecting me to do it. He then slapped his cheeks, trying to bring his morale up.
"Alright, then I'll go around and capture the tamers one at a time. You focus on contracting them. If you can touch them directly, even their immunity shouldn't work."
As Zeshion said this, he quickly caught the nearest tamer in a stranglehold before moving back in front of me. Only the strong gust of wind caused by his rapid movement was left as proof of what he did.
"First one!"
As he said, I quickly touched her head, which was held firmly in place, and initiated the Servant Contract. Although I did feel a slight resistance, it quickly passed as the tamer released a blinding light, signifying a successful contract.
Before the light even faded, God Zeshion was already holding another tamer who was trying to struggle out of his firm hold. I ignored the still-shining tamer and did the Servant Contract once more.
Before I completed the second one, Goddess Vermeil and God Ajax appeared beside Zeshion.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"The demon tamers escaped!"
Vermeil shouted in chagrin.
Based on her story, when they were already about to kill them, Noir interrupted and managed to pull his subordinates out of trouble. As the two were about to chase, the tamers under the control of the Succubus Lord appeared, making it hard for them to move.
As I was about to finish the eighth contract, Goddess Blanc was already explaining the situation to the disoriented tamers who finished first.
"Then help me gather the tamers like this."
Zeshion muttered as he gestured to the tamer held in a choke hold between his thick arms.
"You can't teleport when in contact with them, so just run."
He added.
The two looked around, counting the number of succubus tamers that were rushing to their position. Zeta was busy sending them flying away without inflicting much damage. She was pinpoint teleporting human-sized rocks from somewhere to the stratosphere, letting them gain speed as they fell down, before teleporting them right below the tamer's solar plexus going upward.
The tamers that got hit would be sent flying a good few hundred meters away, earning the others time to manage the rest of the incoming waves easily.
The only ones busy fighting were Ying Yue, Ember, and Fina. After all, they were the only ones who could "fight" without inflicting much damage on the enemies.
As we were busy handling the thousands of tamers that were rushing in, a bloody red claw attack was sent falling towards our location. Zeta quickly moved to teleport it away. However, as her attention was turned away for a moment, thousands more managed to enter our range.
"Blue, I need help!"
Goddess Zeta shouted as she gritted her teeth, but Zeshion just chuckled.
"I'm out of energy! But I know you can handle this, so good luck!"
