Monster Girl Ranching in Another World

Chapter 128 - A... Ranch, I Guess



I walked back to Lani\'s house, and she was waiting for us at the door, tapping her foot. That meant that something must be coming soon.

I picked up my pace, and so did Kali, and we followed Lani back into the house.

"There is an attack coming from the beach in about fifteen minutes, but there will be another attack from the Gnolls to the west where you came in," Lani explained as we walked into the room that had the table.

"I don\'t think they will be as likely to attack after I just killed the ten that were chasing me," I said with a chuckle, but Lani shook her head.

"No, they are stupid creatures that survive from raiding other people rather than finding their own food! They don\'t care how many die because they reproduce like that Gog girl you had with you!" Lani said in frustration as she ran her hands through her hair.

Well, this was going to make a bit of a pickle, but with Kali, I might not have that much trouble. The question was, what was coming from the sea?

"What is going to attack the beach?" I asked.

"Mutalisks, they are strange and crazy shellfish monsters, but they are all different combinations of shelled creatures. They don\'t have reason or thoughts as far as we can tell, but they are the only thing that comes from the sea," Lani explained, and I rubbed my chin, feeling some stubble as I thought.

I would have to let Kali copy me in my large form, and then she could take on the Gnolls without a problem, but the Mutalisks had me thinking. Something that was mindlessly doing the same thing over and over had all the signs of another person controlling them.

"When did the Mutalisks start attacking?" I asked as I looked at the map.

There was another time stamp on the east side, but all I could make out was number one, which was written the same as our number. This would be considered strange since the writing was different, but this was not the time to go over that.

"Only a couple days ago," Lani told me, and I nodded my head knowingly.

I wonder if this had something to do with either of the two bastards I saw underwater. Both of them seemed to already know I was here, and I probably would have gone to the village first if I hadn\'t met the girls.

"Okay, since we have a couple minutes, what is the last thing that will be attacking?" I asked as I looked at the last timestamp on the map.

"That one isn\'t really an attack. There is a large creature called a mammoth, and it is the only one on this island, but it doesn\'t attack us. Instead, I need to warn the people that it\'s coming by so they can put their breakables into safe places," Lani explained, and I raised an eyebrow.

Mammoths were prehistoric creatures from Earth, but I had a hard time believing they would cause that much disturbance. The creatures were no more than fifteen feet tall, so it was hard to imagine their steps making that much of an impact, but who knew how big they were here?

"Hmm, well, I will see what I can do about that, but Kali, I need you to take care of the Gnolls. Are you okay with that?" I asked, turning to Kali while still holding her hand, and she nodded with a cute smile.

"I can take care of them; I know the way they fight, and my massive body might even scare them away," Kali said to me.

During that time, Lani was studying our hands, and I noticed it out of the corner of my eye. Though, when I turned to look at her, Lani looked away from me. Curious, but again this was not the time for my mind to go off on a tangent.

"I will go and deal with the Mutalisks since I think that them coming is my fault, along with the Behemoths, but that will end tomorrow. I don\'t know if I can get to who is controlling the Mutalisks yet if they are controlled, but I will work on something to prevent them from attacking you," I explained.

"Okay, thank you," Lani said but still wouldn\'t look at me.

Looks like I might be taking another girl into my care, but I was going to start having trouble keeping track of all these girls soon. I needed to get off this island and get to Gardania soon so I could set up a… ranch, I guess.

There wasn\'t really anything that I could think of to call it that would make sense, and I mean, my system\'s name. The problem would be finding the perfect place that I would be able to meet everyone\'s needs.

The girls would be able to help me shape the place, and then I could take on caring for anyone that needed it. This world was a hard place, and I was sure there were many people and entire villages just like this one that went under constant attacks.

By the end of it all, I was going to have the largest ranch that any world had ever seen, but the real question was whether or not I was doing what was right.

I had a purpose for being here, and in order to move on, I would need to prove the weight of my soul. What I was doing in my mind was good, but I also was having fun with each of the girls, so I was concerned with how that would affect it.

It was hard to imagine, but somewhere in my head was all the information that I needed, but I had placed a block on my mind. It was the only way I could make another attempt at getting into the final fight and take The Center of Everything back from the Demon King at the place where worlds collided.
