Monster Girl Ranching in Another World



Elemental Fury was building up inside of me as pure rage filled my veins.

This was no longer about me, and any fear that I had was burned away with the mention of them attacking my family. There was no way that Eelyasha was getting out of this cave.

“That is mighty talk, coming from you! My daughter is more than enough to tear your body to shreds!” the massive ugly gray face of Dolores laughed at me but then stopped.

My body started to change and become rock-like, with blue and red lines of power covering me. A sphere of wind formed around me, pushing the water out as I became human in shape.

“My talk is only as mighty as I am. Threaten me, fine. My family? There isn’t a place that you can hide, Delores, and when I am done with your daughter here, I will find you.”

My body dried off, but I could see Eelyasha out of the corner of my eye, trying to get out of the room. I turned, and rock closed off the only exit to the room.

“And where do you think that you are going? Where is that excitement from before? Come, show me what you are made out of!” I roared, spitting rocks out of my mouth as I did.

Eelyasha screamed as the small rocks tore through her eels that surrounded her, but they grew back almost instantly. That was some serious regeneration, but I had figured out how I could deal with it; I just needed to get closer.

“Do not let him get close to you!” Delores screamed, and I narrowed my eyes and then closed them quickly.

“That was strange,” Harold said as soon as I appeared in the center of my mind.

“How was she able to block me from coming in here?” I asked in confusion.

“I don’t think that she did it on purpose, but wow, of all the women that you could have run into!” Harold laughed, and I scowled at him.

“This is not funny! How does this bitch know so much?” I asked, frustrated.

Hearing Delores talk about the boat had put me on edge, and now I couldn’t stop thinking about the girls.

“That, I am not sure, but I think that she might be the one connected to the girls. Maybe try asking her about them. If she already knows about everything, then you are not giving anything away. If she reacts to it, then she is more than likely the one we are after, but this is no guarantee. I am just assuming it is Delores because she is the type to do something like this. Look at how many times she tried to get you and Lidy in trouble. Didn’t she even lock you two in the freezer?” Harold asked, and I nodded.

“More than one time! I actually forced them to change the door and remove the lock!” I exclaimed, tossing my hands into the air.

“Who are we talking about?” Grogvel asked. “You two seem to know this woman very well.”

“She was the head cafeteria lady in the place that Zack and I worked before you existed. Zack slept with her a couple times, but then Lidy was hired,” Harold explained, and Fireden laughed.

“Wow, no wonder she hates you so much! Dumped her for the new girl!” Fireden chuckled, but I shook my head.

“That isn’t what happened at all! Of course, you would leave all the important bits out!” I growled, and Harold chuckled more.

“Yes, that is right. There is a lot more to the story. Delores was extremely rude and mean to Lidy, forcing her to do everything that she didn’t want to. Lidy, being the wonderful person she is, did everything without complaint,” Harold explained.

“That was until Lidy was almost hurt badly because Delores pushed her into a hot oven! I was just coming around the corner when it happened and saw it happen! I have never hit a woman so damn hard in my life! After that, I stopped seeing her, and she stopped talking to me, and Lidy and I spent more time together. Then she started to harass Lidy more but got shit kicked by Lidy for it,” I explained, and Fireden laughed.

“Wow! That is one that I will remember! So, Delores hates you because you don’t want to be with her?” Fireden asked, and I nodded.

“To a degree, I think it is more because I choose Lidy over her. I had tried to talk to her about things after I had hit her, but she just said that I was a woman abuser. I can count on one finger the number of women that I had hit at that point, so her comment didn’t bother me. I just left her be and let Lidy deal with her whenever she tried to cause problems,” I explained.

“Woman abuser? What does that make her?” Wataluga asked, and I grinned.

“In the world that I am from, it is seen as wrong for a man to hit a woman. We are taught that we are stronger and we should only protect them, but I only have so much patience for people. Man or Woman, if you are trying to hurt others, you have to expect it back,” I explained.

“I never heard about you punching her, so she must not have said anything about it,” Harold said, and I nodded.

“That would mean explaining why she got hit, and there were cameras everywhere. If Delores had said anything about it, she would have been the one to lose her job. As much as I don’t like to talk like this, I was worth more than she was, but she was also in the wrong. Regardless, none of this helps me. Even if I kill this one, Eelyasha, Delores is still out there,” I explained, but Harold put his finger up.

“While killing the Eel Goddess might be easier, we have a box ready and filled with sand and salt. Both things should dry out Eelyasha, and we can keep her trapped in Libra's Astral Ring. I think that we are going to need her to find Delores,” Harold explained, and I groaned.

“Because just outright killing her wasn’t hard enough! I only have a limited amount of time that I can stay like this with all four Pacts active! I can feel my energy getting leached faster than I can pull in!” I complained, and Harold nodded.

“Yes, I know it is going to be a pain in the ass, but this will give us something to bargain with, at least. If we keep her daughter imprisoned, then she might stay away from us,” Harold suggested.

“What makes you think that Delores cares about her child?! Look at Thesta! She was willing to eat her own child to get more power!” I snapped, but Harold shook his head.

“I think that Delores is different. Thesta is a created intelligence, just like the elementals, so they will act how they are intended to, but Delores is still human. I think that she cares about her child, even if it is just because she needs her. If she didn’t need her, then I don’t think that she would have kept her around for so long,” Harold explained, but I felt like this was stretching.

The chances of this witch actually caring about other people were very slim, but I didn’t have many other options.

I could just burn Eelyasha and be done with it. That was the best way to deal with something like here that could regenerate so fast; just burn it till there was nothing left.

Yet, I had no other way to keep Delores from attacking my ship. Even if it didn’t work, it was worth taking the chance that it might.

If it didn’t work, then I would just get Nushi to pull everything I could out of Eelyasha about Delores. There was a good chance that she knew where she was hiding and what she was capable of.

“Fine, but you had better be ready on the other side when I open up the gate to toss her in. I don’t think that she will take long to regenerate, but I will do my best to tire her out before sending her in,” I said with a sigh.

“Good. We are ready, and Marly is there to help me keep her locked up. Once we have her, we will start running tests on her and find out how she heals so fast. Even though she is a monster by all rights, you could use an ability like that,” Harold suggested.

“Can we just worry about capturing her first before you ask me to fuck that ugly thing!” I complained.

“You have to slay a few dragons to reach the princess, right? That is what you told me what I asked you about why you were fucking Delores, right?” Harold asked, and I rolled my eyes before closing them.
