Two weeks has passed since the battle against Agatha and her Vampires, and things have been partially improving in the fiefdom. Thanks to the aid of my Undead, all the rubble was cleansed from the streets, and I put several Undead cooperating with architects to rebuild all the houses that were destroyed. Thanks to the sizable amount of materials that Julia provided, this ended being quite an easy task that fetched me the love of the people and the acceptance of Undead also began to grow more. I’ve also been managing the Dungeon as I could, finding out new ways to use it, mostly just creating monsters and asking them to act dumb so adventurers could come hunt them more easily.

Of course, there were now taxes applied, as I’ve received my Noble Title a week and a half ago, surprisingly fast. It appears the King seemed to agree to this idea faster than anyone could had imagined. Perhaps having seen the potential of having a Dungeon Master was too great to pass, so he immediately decided to make me an honorable noble and even sent me a sack of gold coins. I had already signed a few contracts with Julia about the taxes of the dungeon and more, and we decided to keep the entrance rather cheap, only costing 1 Silver Coin. With that just anybody can enter. Once the entrance is paid, the person can enter and go out of the dungeon as many times as they want within 24 hours.

And then there are the taxes, whenever an adventurer comes to sell the products of my dungeon to the adventurer guild or any shop in the city, there will be a 20% tax for it, so they’ll have to sell it cheaper, generating income over time for me out of nowhere. Like this, I could simply sit down and enjoy the life of a Noble Lady without worrying about anything, as income will continue coming my way.

I would love to have a leisure life such as this forever, but things will never be as easy, not at all! I have many things to do and I can’t really spend any more time in here. I had yet to buy a land and receive etiquette classes with Julia, as I’ve been busy producing monsters and hunting monsters that have begun to appear in the surroundings of the fiefdom. It seems that the Vampires had left large black-colored stones spread around, these were Miasmic Crystals, similar to Demonite, but even more deadly.

They left them buried underground and with these stones cursing the land, the plants and animals began to mutate into monsters, and already existing wild monsters turned feral and even stronger. I had spent the last weeks collecting these things and putting them inside my Inventory while asking for the priests and Emeraldine’s Purification ability to cleanse the land. The monsters had gathered so much they even formed an immense wave, but we managed to defeat them eventually, thankfully.

The amount of EXP wasn’t anything to scoff at, with it, I even managed to raise one level! That’s big because these monsters were all below B Rank, but they were so many they ended giving me hundreds of thousands of mana at the end. So now, I am Level 8/80, I need another 72 levels to evolve, which seems like a pain, but well, it is fair seeing how strong this Evolution was…

However, after spending almost a month here, it was time to go back to my village.

“Mary, stay a bit more! Don’t go yet! I have yet to teach you about lady-like etiquette and to buy you a plot of land!” Julia grabbed my dress and tried to stop me from walking away.

“Julia, we can’t stay here any longer! I got a whole family of people I care about in my territory, and there are my own troubles as well… We can’t stay here forever, but I’ll come to visit regularly. Oh right, make sure to take care of my Undead guardians. I left several Phantom Familiars which you can use to talk to me directly as well, they’ll protect you, feed them tasty things.” I said to her.

“Okay…” She sighed. “So when will you come again?” She wondered.

“Erm… Maybe in a few months?” I said while scratching my head. I really didn’t had any plans to come back here for a while. We have already secured a large quantity of food, not only meat but also several tons of veggies, fruits, tubers, seeds to plant in the greenhouse, oils, salt, spices, and more, which I’ve purchased using the fortune I earned and also which I’ve received as pay from Julia, as I told her she didn’t had to bring me money, but food and all these things were quite enough.

We also got a lot of magic artifacts, new furniture, and more, which will make our lives way more easy. I personally can’t wait to try out a new and fancy bathtub I bought that has magic stones that infuse it with elements. it can produce warm water to take a warm bath or shower each day, several times a day! It will be truly a bliss. Even as a ghost a lot of soot accumulates in my body due to the darkness essence I emanate, so I require good baths daily to not get nasty.

“A few months?!” Julia asked in horror. “Please come sooner with everybody else…!”

“I am sorry, Julia, but we are busy with our own things.” Lucifer said, petting her head.

Julia immediately blushed as she saw the handsome face of my husband, I think she even skipped a beat.

“S-Sir Lucifer…” She cried.

“Julia, don’t look at my husband with those eyes…” I sighed.

“A-Ah…! I-I wasn’t looking in any weird way…!” Julia cried, crossing her arms and averting her gaze from the handsome dragon.

“Well, goodbye for now, Julia, Take care of things well, I am sure you will.” Emeraldine said.

“Yeah, see ya!” Partner waved her hand.

And like that, we walked away from the fiefdom and into the wilderness.
