Monster Girl Ranching in Another World

"Yes, well, I suppose this is my fault," Mex said, but I was walking over to the girls to grab them.

My head was cooling, but what I had just done was setting in.

I had just killed people.

While they were demons that I knew would never actually die, that didn't really key into my logic.

I knew that my reaction to the information wasn't bad, and I would do it again. Yet, I had still killed people trying to protect what must be the leader of this village.

"Are you two okay?" I asked softly as I walked up to the confused-looking woman.

"Yes, we are fine, but what did you do here?" Lizy asked as she looked around the now only smoking and partially destroyed village.

"The woman told me that she had eaten the two of you, and I lost it," I said as I scrubbed my face with one hand. "And I killed some of them."

The girls got surprised looks, and then they both turned to Lani. To my surprise, the two of them started to tear into the demon woman.

"Are you satisfied now?" Keri asked Lani and then said, "You would think after your Father had to kill that hero for doing the same thing! Fireden used to tell stories about this village!"

"You are all lucky to have anything left. If it would have been met and just a meal you had taken, I would have killed you all!" Lizy hissed at her.

"Well, maybe if we actually got some help once, in a while, I wouldn't have to try such underhanded tactics! I am talking to you, Father!" Lani said as she rounded on Mex, who was studying the back of his hand intently.

"I have been busy, and such! You are a grown woman and looking horrible for your age; stop that! You shall talk to me in the form that your mother birthed in on Gardania!" Mex said as he reversed the conversation.

"I will look however I want to! You left me in charge of these people, and they don't respect me if I look like some cute little tart!" Lani shouted at Mex, and I finally decided to speak up.

"How is Lidy?" I asked Mex.

That was the only thing on my mind right now besides what I had just done, and I needed to focus on her. I didn't want the thoughts of what I just did to keep coming back up.

"Sleeping, and she will be that way for a couple days," Mex said, and I sighed.

All of my rushings had been for nothing, and now I felt worse about what I had done. I couldn't bring them back from the dead, but I could help out this village that I had just torn apart.

"Can you take the girls back with you then? I will stay here, help out with repairs, and help out with what I can, and I will be back in the evening. I need to have a sit down with you when I get back, and I need to deal with Jessabell still," I said, and Mex nodded to me, but the girls both started to complain, but I put my hand up to stop them.

"Kazz can't keep an eye on the two of you while he is trying to help others. The two of you will come back with me, and you will get to ask your best friend to design your new room," Mex said with a smile as he said the last part to Lizy.

"What? I don't have any friends!" Lizy said a little too proudly, and I had to hold back a smile despite myself.

"Hehe, that's right! The Kazz said that he was also taking care of Jilly! This is going to be fun!" Keri said as she came over to me with her arms out.

I reached down and gave her a hug and then a kiss, and Keri smiled at me adorably. It was pretty easy to like her when she acted so cute like this, but that is why I had gotten so mad.

"Be safe, and listen to Mex; I will be home as soon as I can," I said to her and then kissed Keri's forehead.

I stood back up and then walked over to where a frustrated Lizy was standing cross-armed, staring at a section of the wall. I couldn't imagine what was going through her mind, but I knew that I wouldn't get the same kind of goodbye from her that I did from Keri.

I moved behind her and slid my arms around her waist. Lizy tensed and tried to turn around, but I held her in place and then moved my mouth to her ear.

"Be good, and play nice with the others. If you do, I might give you a reward, but if not," I whispered, and then softly grabbed one of Lizy's covered nipples through her black dress, and then I squeezed down on it, but not too hard like last time, and then continued, "I will have to punish you again."

Lizy gasped as I did, but then I let go of her nipple and started to move my hand away, but Lizy grabbed it. She pressed it into her chest and then leaned her head into mine, pushing her cheek into mine.

"Can we do both?" Lizy breathed only loud enough for me to hear, and I gave her a gentle grope and then kissed her cheek as she moaned almost imperceptibly.

"Be good, and we will talk about it later," I said and then let her go.

Lizy stayed turned away from everyone and then left the damaged building that we were all standing in. She must have been blushing, or something like that, because she made an effort to keep her face hidden from me.

"I will see you tonight, and you had better not give this man any trouble. While I am sad that some of my children are dead, it was your fault, not his, and you should have told them to stay back!" Mex said and then took Keri's hand that she was holding out to him and left.
