Several weeks had passed since Raven spent time with Emily and Philis enjoying his slow life; during the past few weeks, his rota became more relaxed as many of his women seemed to have gotten together and decided that teaming up would be more effective than meeting him alone.
Emily, Philis and Miriam would often sleep with him together, with the cute minotaur helping the other two get clean after sex because they were lazy.
While Armina, Lilith and Sasha would also share a night, with him always finishing with Lilith at the end, Armina seemed to want her sister to join...
Raven said he wouldn't refuse her advances if she approached, but nothing would be forced. He had a lot to deal with since now Dianne seemed to call him like a lonely girlfriend most nights and even invited him to come to her mansion for a private show.
So they began booking the idea, to the shock of Miyako, who thought Dianne would never accept that and risk her family finding out.
The mansion was completely handed over, and his finances were now managed by Miriam and Sasha, who had many tips for investing and increasing his cash.
He trusted her words and let the two manage the daily and future finances.
It turned out Miriam was the best with daily finances and would be in charge of creating the shopping list and leading the vampire maids to collect the food and necessities each month rather than ordering it online.
Because Miriam said she loved the idea of shopping and checking the prices herself, so he allowed her to do so, and only the bare minimum and emergency items would be ordered online from Amazon.
However, Miriam told him that Evelyn seemed to be going out at night, came home in the early hours, and was worried about her, so from the next week before she moved in, he offered to keep an eye on her in secret.
Now he was sitting on the high wall of a department store as Evelyn, wearing a black leather bodysuit, with a jacket and boots, walked into the dark part of Arcadia...
She entered the Slums, but the deep Slums where the filth and criminals hid their vile deeds.
Raven didn't mind doing this because the next dungeon they would visit together was one with 10 floors and located close to the Burning Cove in the shallow area of the Slums and gave him an excuse to follow her.
Since he became stronger, his flexibility and speed became amazing, able to run and leap from building to building while the small Evelyn was forced to run along the ground.
Thankfully she was yet to enter a dungeon and become stronger, or he might struggle to follow her so easily.
"Well then, let's see what you are up to, little girl..."
***
She didn't seem to be doing much for the first 20 minutes and only entered different buildings and areas, spoke with a few people, and then looked at her phone before leaving, so Raven had quite a relaxed time.
'Oh? What is she doing... Isn't that a gang's area?'
Curious, he followed; above the slums was a metal fencing and scaffold. To avoid noise, his manticore tail held him in the air as he moved above; somehow, he felt like living his old fantasies of wanting to be a spy and assassin.
He was using his Dread mantle to hide from being spotted to avoid her sight.
Now slowly stalking the cute Evelyn like a bad old man.
"Big sis' we managed to get what you asked!" A rough female's voice sounded in his ear from underneath a small metal sheet forming a little defence from the wind and rain as Raven climbed closer and sat above them, watching the group of women.
Five girls, Monster Girls...
A small girl with messy blue hair and a long blue tail with a spike.
Another with black hair and an eastern look, with a long tail with sharp claws that seemed able to extend and thicken.
The third with bright red hair seemed able to use the magic as her tail was like Raven's solid and filled with scales, while her mouth emitted fire when excited.
Fourth was a taller woman, her face without emotions as her feet were like a mantis; even her arms seemed to have long, sharp blades along the outside.
The final woman had bright pink hair, two large horns and tusks from her mouth, seeming to be some orc and monster fashion with the same tail as the red-haired girl.
'Each of them is strange; they smell like Eve... Like me.'
Evenlyn's body sat on a makeshift black chair, her bike helmet now removed, while her leather outfit squeaked as she crossed her legs and began to speak.
"I hope none of you feasted on the innocent, I have looked into it, and the only way is to ask my darling to help..."
"Ohhh! Big Sis' is that the huge orc you mentioned and showed the pictures of all the time?" A short blue-haired girl with a strange blue tail with a long spike at the tip barked; her voice and language were vulgar and rough but seemed cute.
Evelyn's face was quite calm and cool, but she smiled gently once all the girls had nodded and stood before her, bowing, with the pink-haired girl at the front.
"I plan to ask him for his help tonight..."
"Because otherwise, not only can we not get stronger... But, we have been labelled as Dungeon Monsters... and the Bureau will send people to eliminate us if we cannot hide and use the dungeon as camouflage."
'What is she doing... Some Chimera army using her blood and maybe taking mine somehow to make them into pseudo-manticores?"
"Big Sister, will Raven help us? I mean... we don't know each other, and why would he care... You saved us from those horrible lives... from being raped... sold as drug mules... even spare organ dolls.."
"Yeah... Sis' you killed those bad guys, but they have money, and now the news calls you an evil monster... a dangerous monster..."
Raven's heart throbbed, not at the thought she killed but because of remembering what Even suffered before being reborn, the years and countless lives of being forced into a role she didn't want, suffering and treated like these girls...
'Eve wasn't a monster... She wants to save those like her?'
He didn't have the means to save all the women in the world, nor would he touch these women, but if Evenlyn wished to save them... to give them new hope. Raven didn't want to deny her dream, her goal...
*Thud*
[Evelyn POV]
Suddenly a huge black mist appeared from the sky, at first it seemed to be the enemy as Ram's small body shot towards him, her sharp spear-like tail stabbing at the black shadow more than 20 times in the space of four seconds before her body was slammed into the wall, a strange force from the black mist sending her flying.
'No... don't kill them... Please...!' She thought, standing up as Tenra's body lunged forward, dodging the shadow's first attack before her sharp claws swiped across the shadow, only for it to vanish before her eyes.
*Bang!*
Tenra's body rolled along the floor—her eyes closed as a huge claw batted her away, the figure now revealed as a tall man, close to the height of her beloved Raven.
'Shit!'
Something was holding Evelyn in place, stopping her from rushing into battle to help support and avenge her little sisters, biting her lip until the coppery taste of her blood oozed down her chin.
"Big sis! You should flee! Don't fight—this guy is too strong!" The cute voice of the fiery Varis shouted as her red hair seemed to blaze with flames.
Her body sent a barrage of brutal punches at the shadow, with orange flames exploding with each fist.
Yet the shadow caught each blow with the huge palms of his claws, not even moving before a long tail suddenly appeared from above his shoulder and slammed into her face, chest and flank, sending Varis crashing into the stone wall, blood oozing from her nose.
"Varis!?" Evelyn's voice wailed, causing the figure in black to shudder, his steps stopping momentarily as the tall Akki with her sharp mantis-like arms slashed away at his black mantle as if trying to tear off the claws that hurt her sisters.
"I have no grudge, but you hurt those that have become my family! Forgive me! I must reap your life!"
The shadow figure's movements became faster like he was only toying with them.
His body dodged her sharp blades, wrapping around her as if testing her capabilities with a strange nod as his hand was placed on her back before a huge wave of Aura exploded, knocking her unconscious and dropping her to her knees.
"Akki!?"
Despite the tears in her eyes, the final girl, an orcish-looking girl with cute pink hair and horns, stepped forward. Her speed was above the other girls, and the power in her fist was quite high too.
It felt like she might have trained well growing up, as the shadow blocked her blows, taking slow steps back, allowing her to attack with everything she had.
The orc-chimaera seemed to get overconfident as she left her abdomen exposed. "Tor'Syl block! He's going to strike your abdomen!"
Evelyn's body was still locked in place by a strange force stopping her movements as the black mist's fist shot a powerful blow into the chest of her last friend.
She was sent hurling through the air and slamming into the distance building wall, breaking most of the bricks.
Evelyn felt fear, tears in her eyes as she tried to back off, unable to lift her arms to fight.
"They all fought, and not a single one abandoned you..."
"Good work in choosing good friends, Evelyn."
Slowly the mantle faded as the man she sought, the man she worshipped, appeared, a gentle smile on his face as a sudden pulse of Aura pulsated from his body like a halo and started to help heal and recover the girls from their light injuries.
'Why... I don't understand?'
Evelyn thought he had changed, became like the old Alistair who tormented her for countless years, ready to kill him, then kill herself!
But his gentle neon blue eyes caused her to feel confused before his next words.
"Evelyn, I will help you."
"Good work saving them all on your own. It must have been hard work, right?"
As he rubbed the glossy black hair on her head, all the other girls were awake again, watching as their big sister was trembling and in tears as she hugged the body of a handsome orc male over 6ft 6 inches tall and stroked her head.
"No way!? He's that handsome brother!" Ram yelped.
"Wow... he's more powerful than I imagined," Tenra muttered, looking at her claws with a bitter smile.
"So he's our big brother?" Varis whispered, nodding with a grin after seeing his power.
"I... I..... I'm in love!" Tor'Syl shouted as she looked at Raven with hearts in her eyes. Orcs were a very passionate and simple race regarding emotions...
The poor girl's heart was now captivated by the first male orc to defeat her...
In all honesty... just like his mother when she lost to Sylvester.
