The added members totaled at 167 which brought up the original population to an amazing number of 446 members.
Though given that not all of them are combat-ready assets, this number fairly equals a force of one or two complete infantry units, if not more.
I suppose I’ll need to explain step by step how and why the number of members has increased besides those already mentioned.
The increase in births is mostly coming from the human women. Aside from the girls that I saved back at the Orc’s mine, we now also have the humans, Avenger, Nicola, as well as six other human children as well. That makes for quite a few humans. Some of them have even given birth twice now!
Among those that gave birth to a child, all of them apparently received [Job - Demon Child’s Holy Mother].
I would expect that in the future the number of women who bear this [Job] will undoubtedly increase. Their children will be blessed with powerful abilities, strength and other qualities because of it as well.
However, if the current birth rate continues as it is, the future generations will face various complications. The most possible would be food shortages, insufficient tools and living space are also possible. These are just a few of the most prominent that I can think of, however, there will probably be more facing us if countermeasures are not put in place.
On the other hand, there hasn't been a single birth from the elves yet. This really does show that the elvish pregnancy rate is very low.
I think that this is a special characteristic that they’re born with that contributes to preventing a major population boom when they hold such long life spans.
With this at least, I can have some peace of mind. After all, the elves are quite popular with the masses in certain regards.
Now, I suppose I’ll move onto the Dragonewts and the Insectoids.
These are people who were among the previous human slave army. Once they were freed, they had left to return to their own tribes. This, however, was not to be, because they had discovered that their homes had already been destroyed or had been moved to another location that they are unaware of.
Due to this, they returned here because they had no where else to go.
Losing their homes is the main reason why many people have come to join us, but there are other reasons as well.
In particular, there is the case with the Cat Fairy tribe. They still actually have their own home somewhere in the mountains.
Their reasoning, however, is that the humans still view them as simple animals, something cute, and are in danger of being captured and being made into slaves for some noble’s daughter. Since the risk is very high, they choose to bring their tribes here to seek protection.
In actuality, only the two Nail Cats had belonged to the Human slave army, just a small portion compared to the Cat Fairy tribe that had arrived here. For that reason, I’m not certain about their combat potential.
is a mercenary troop anyway, so I decided to draft and train all 25 of them to find out more about their combat potential for war.
As it would turn out, the base rank of the Cat Fairy is roughly the same as a Goblin, while the Nail Cat is roughly equal to a hobgoblin.
Because of that, they are not able to join our main combat forces.
After some more observation, I discovered that they are quite good with their hands. Especially when they are doing their chores around the settlement.
As such, I designated them as the caretakers of our base. Their tasks generally including cleaning, organization, light labor and so on.
Then there is a beautiful flower headed woman (Dorian), she’s actually ‘that’ Dryad.
When I had left the base, I had left behind one of my clones to keep her company and keep her safe while I was out.
It turns out that she kept on absorbing his life energy and the clone had become mummified. But, because of that, she had ranked up.
She now belongs to the [Dorian] race, which unlike the tree-bound [Dryad], she is able to move freely. The appearance of the Dorian race is similar to what the name implies; the Dorians look different than the Dryads as they have flowers growing on their heads.
The Dorian’s flower is similar to that of a hibiscus with pink petals.
As she was no longer tree-bound, she came to seek me out after my clone had perished. When she appeared at the base, I gave permission for her to remain there. Rather, I had to take responsibility and take her with us. With her gaining the title of [Consort of Demon ■], it was rather that she had come to stay with me.
Since it cannot be helped, I’ll accept her decision.
Next is explaining why the Black Skeleton Commander and the Black Undead Knight were mentioned in the current population.
These are the results of my little experiment into the history and potency of the Black Skeletons using the [Kodoku] method. Basically it’s an ancient practice of necromancers since ancient times wherein I’m allowing the Black Skeletons to [Rank-Up].
Creating them is actually quite simple.
First, I dig several big holes in the ground, then I put in several Black Skeleton Knights and Black Skeleton Axemen that I’ve been creating since long before I left the base.
For each hole, I put in a total of twenty or so Black Skeletons of any type I feel like and lastly throw in a Black Skeleton Summoner.
The last part is actually quite troublesome to generate.
Then, I put a lid on the hole so they don’t escape and I order them to destroy one another.
The total number of Black skeletons sealed in each hole is a total of twenty one. To arise as the victor, not only does the Skeleton need to defeat the other twenty Black Skeletons, but also the [Grey Skeletons] that the Black Skeleton Summoner can create.
In actuality, the Grey Skeletons are quite weaker than any version of the Black Skeletons, but since they are continuously spewing forth, there will be quite a few of them and as such they produce quite a fair deal of experience for any of the Black Skeletons that manage to destroy them.
Well, this scheme won’t work as well in the case that the Summoner is destroyed early on, so I ordered that the summoner cannot be killed until there are no other Black Skeletons remaining at the very end of the fight.
The efficiency of this scheme is actually pretty good. As an added bonus, the remains of the Grey Skeletons that are being destroyed en masse are quite delicious to me.
Through this method, Black Skeleton Commanders and Black Undead Knights emerged.
To briefly describe their capacity, the Black Skeleton Commanders are able to use the ability [Lower Skeleton Summoner] which grants them the ability to call forth Black Skeleton Elites as their own servants. This allows them to create Black Skeletons for use in their own group tactics without my assistance.
