After enjoying some exotic play with Shaitan in my dream and giving each of the ladies who craved my attention first thing in the morning a fair turn, I called Shaitan aside again.
"Don't tell me you want me already...?"
"No, we'll set the mood for that later. Right now, I need to check out your abilities as an incubus."
"I see...."
Shaitan looked down with a disappointed expression. She seemed ready to spread her legs and strip off her underwear the moment I gave the word.
"Take off your panties."
"I already took them off before you called me."
"Seriously?"
I flicked Shaitan's forehead with my finger.
"You did this in the dream too—you really don't understand men at all. Shaitan, why do you think I made stockings for the girls?"
"...So you could take them off?"
"Exactly! What's the point if I don't get to take them off myself? Keep that in mind for next time, got it?"
"I'll remember."
Shaitan pulled out a notepad and wrote down what I said.
'Must wear underwear when doing it with Master.' I was pretty impressed that she showed me what she wrote without any shame, though it was kind of ridiculous that she thought to write it down but didn't think to actually go put panties on—which made things uncomfortable down below for me.
"Ahem, so Shaitan. Does your incubus ability just let you enter dreams, or is there more?"
"There's more."
Shaitan cleared her throat and briefly explained her abilities.
Succubi can enter the dreams people are having and appear as characters in those dreams.
In dreams, they sleep with their targets and drain their life force.
A being of Shaitan's caliber—a 4-star Madame Succubus—can even manipulate the dreams people have and create scenarios.
"This time I entered your dream, Master. However, you became aware that you were dreaming, so... you took me in the dream yourself."
Shaitan placed her hand on her lower belly and smiled faintly. She might not have drained my life force, but she could still feel the sensation of me filling her up inside.
"It's extremely rare for someone to realize they're in a dream. Since you're a higher-level being than me, Master, I think you became aware it was a dream and broke free from my ability."
"More like I realized it was a dream because it was impossible."
"What kind of dream was it and how did you do it?"
Lune, who'd been listening quietly, jumped into the conversation. Everyone seemed less interested in the incubus abilities and more curious about what kind of play Shaitan and I had gotten up to. They cared more about the side dish than the main course.
"W-well."
"Grabbed her horns and went two rounds in her mouth, held her wings while facing each other for two rounds, grabbed her tail and did it from behind for three rounds inside. Happy now?"
"Wow. Shaitan, that must've been amazing...."
Lune was genuinely envious of Shaitan. It wasn't a real act, but since I got ahead of the story, my other subordinates either grimaced or felt jealous—they didn't suspect anything.
I had no intention of talking about my past life—the modern world—and Shaitan didn't seem inclined to reveal it to the others either. Shaitan and I had become secret lovers in the dream world.
"Master, Shaitan said that if you give permission and she uses her power, we could enter your dreams too?"
"You guys already go at me in reality—now you want to assault me in my dreams too?"
At my fed-up tone, my subordinates looked away and smiled faintly. If Shaitan hadn't told them she needed my permission first to manipulate dreams, they probably would've snuck in while I was sleeping.
"Ahem. Anyway, let's get back to talking about your abilities. Shaitan, what happens when you absorb life force?"
"I can refine it into magic stones, or I can convert it into my own power. Life force is vitality, but you can also think of it as containing mana."
"I see.... I've made up my mind."
Based on the information I'd gotten through my dream encounter with Shaitan and what I'd just heard about her abilities, I'd come up with a plan. It was essential for our forces—our legion.
"Madame Shaitan. From now on, I'm appointing you as the administrator of the succubus squad we'll be summoning to our dungeon. We'll use half the mid-grade magic stones we got from Luna to summon wolves, and the other half to summon succubi. We'll make up the shortage in capacity by... building more barracks on basement level 1. We should be able to secure at least 30 personnel."
Unfortunately, it seemed basement level 1 only had the slime dragons in the clearing. There was no visible path down to basement level 2, and the clearing we'd thought was the entrance was actually the deepest part of basement level 1.
"If someone declares war on this dungeon and opens a portal, the portal will now open at the entrance to basement level 1. Flauros's dungeon has perfect defenses now. All that's left is defending Ras Vegas."
"Defending Ras Vegas.... What does that have to do with increasing the number of succubi?"
Eila, the person in charge of Ras Vegas defense, asked me.
"If we're increasing cavalry, it would be much better to organize them all with Worwolves like we've been doing."
"Right. But half Worwolves is enough. Actually, half the mid-grade magic stones is just the right amount to summon 30 succubi."
1-star, Succubus Girl.
2-star, Succubus.
3-star, Succubus Lady.
4-star, Madame Succubus.
Thanks to summoning Shaitan, I could now summon succubi through magic stone summoning, and all the succubi I could summon with mid-grade magic stones were 3-star 'Succubus Ladies.'
A whopping 60 mid-grade magic stones per person.
I'd have to pay a pretty steep price, but the abilities of succubi—incubi—that I'd learned about through Shaitan were worth the magic stones. I prepared a speech about why I needed to use those massive amounts of mid-grade magic stones to summon succubi.
"Listen up. Succubi will be the future of defending Ras Vegas—no, the future of our entire legion."
"You banged one in a dream and now you're obsessed with succubi. You're not satisfied with just us, so now you're trying to build a harem with succubi?"
"...Just to be clear, you guys don't actually think I'm going to invite all 30 succubi into my dreams and do it with them, right?"
No one denied it. Even Shaitan was nodding like it made perfect sense.
"Master."
"Yeah, Lune?"
"You can do whatever you want with the succubi in your dreams, but you've gotta pay attention to us in reality, okay?"
Even you, Lune? I totally understood how Caesar felt when he cried out to Brutus. So I decided to make it crystal clear right now.
"Human lady knight, slime, high elf, dark elf, witch, succubus, and others. I already have so many different species around me, and I've sampled each one. And you guys are the representatives of those species."
I felt bad for those who fell into the 'others' category, but there were bound to be some I cared about more.
"I want to set up a buffet with one of each species, but why would I mess with others when I've got you—the tastiest ones—right here?"
"Wow, that statement is total garbage."
"So you don't like it, Gremory?"
"Nah. If you're a demon, you should have that kind of attitude. What do you think, Princess?"
"I will ensure Master can sample all species."
"Lime says she agrees too."
The demons approved of my ambitions.
"It's pretty messed up to tell us you'll knock us up then go with other women.... But whatever, you're an orc so it doesn't matter? That's what you think, right, Lune?"
"It's because you're Master."
The two elves also didn't object to my grand plan.
"...I have no intention of questioning what you're thinking, Master. I'm a knight. I exist to follow your will. However."
Eila, the human, seemed to accept my thinking but added a caveat.
"Why succubi specifically?"
".....Wait. You're okay with me messing around with just any woman?"
"Why are you suddenly saying that? What I don't understand is why you're using half the magic stones on succubi instead of slime dragons, stone golems, or Worwolves."
"Guess I barked up the wrong tree. Gremory, you derailed the whole conversation. You're getting the root corkscrew treatment. Rasil, grab her."
I punished Gremory for breaking the flow of conversation with random comments. Gremory tried to run away in shock, but Tentacle Drasil had already pulled its roots from the ground and swallowed up Gremory's lower half.
"What did I say that was wrong, mmph?!"
Gremory was buried in the ground with only her head sticking out. She was probably getting a full-body massage from the protrusions inside the roots, and a dildo branch had shut her noisy mouth. As long as I kept Gremory from spouting nonsense, the conversation wouldn't derail.
"To be clear, I'm summoning succubi for official business reasons. If I wanted to get it on, I'd do it with you guys—why would I summon succubi for that?"
"That's true. If you want to do it with a succubus, you can just do it with Shaitan."
At Lune's words, Shaitan hid her tail and wings behind her back and glanced nervously at the others. She was the species closest to doing it, but the actual play she'd shared with me had been much gentler and more affectionate than with the others.
"So is there some special reason you're insisting on succubi?"
"Yes. The ability to enter dreams. I plan to use that to extract information and wealth from the human world."
When a human man is in an extreme situation, what happens if a woman he finds attractive shows interest in him? Especially if a man who's being dragged off to war the day after tomorrow spends a night with a woman—what do you think he'll say?
Through human men's dreams, succubi would absorb life force, obtain information, and even get some wealth as tips.
It was killing three birds with one stone. The world would be dyed in the color of sex, and humans would gradually lose their resistance to acts with monsters.
"What's the closest human city to Ras Vegas?"
"The barony, Spica Castle."
"Oh yeah? Hehehe, then let's start there."
An economic activity that's existed since ancient times in human history—illegal in modern times, but what about in this world? I revealed the detailed plan I'd worked out through my dream encounter with Shaitan to the others, and everyone's expressions turned serious.
"...The human alliance could collapse if this goes wrong."
"Master truly is terrifying. You know exactly how to corrupt humans."
"...Using succubi for maximum efficiency. There's only benefits for the legion, and it's a one-sided exchange where only the human alliance loses. As expected, truly befitting of Master."
My subordinates began worrying about humanity, which would be corrupted according to my plan. If we succeeded, our legion would gain massive wealth, magic stones, experience, and information.
"Alright, let's start planning the details. The Ras Vegas Spica branch."
To protect the legion, I attempted to attack humanity's dark side.
'All for the sake of doing it.'

"The Legion Commander is truly ruthless.... Just like before."
"Dad.... I don't think this is right."
"P-prostitution is forbidden by the Goddess's law as taboo...."
Lily, and Guinevere were quite reluctant after hearing my plan. Unlike Eila, who'd been reborn through me, pure humans like Lily and Guinevere were pretty troubled by my plan. Even my daughter Meri tilted her head at the plan.
"I am ruthless, and I don't give a damn about taboos. We're at war with the human alliance right now."
"Dad, I'm not against the operation."
"Did I misunderstand?"
"There's no way I'd oppose Dad's plan. What I want to say is, we need a suitable building for the plan, and the question is who's going to infiltrate Spica Castle."
Meri gave the most constructive answer. For my plan, we first needed a building that would become the Ras Vegas Spica branch, and to purchase that building, we needed funds and a 'person' to buy the building from the baron.
A 'human' who could be trusted enough to purchase a building in Spica Castle, which was already filled with the clouds of war. Someone who could deal with the baron without any problems.
"Meri, will you do it?"
"I've been waiting for you to say that. Hehe."
My blood runs through her, but Meri is clearly human. I was a bit worried that someone might recognize her face, which looks too much like her mother May, but Meri was the only one I could trust.
"The others have all done it with me, so they'll get caught at the checkpoint. Only you can get into Spica Castle without being caught by the priests."
"Leave it to me."
Meri grinned confidently.
"This guy's coming with me too, right?"
"...That's why I'm most worried."
I couldn't easily trust the man—the quick-shooter hunter from Ras Village—bowing and scraping behind Meri.
"You. Even if it costs you your life, you have to bring Meri back alive. Got it?"
"Of course. ...B-but if there's this Demon King system thing, will you really resurrect me?"
"Yep. Bond Summon doesn't discriminate once you're my subordinate. So your name is...."
I had to remember the name of the quick-shooter I'd never paid attention to. The name of this man who was the first to bang the harpies among the hunters we'd captured when we raided the slash-and-burn village. This man whose face was the least known and who sympathized with cross-species banging.
"Hehe, I am."
The quick-shooter had a face full of smiles, just like Meri.
"Call me 'Jack.' My buddies called me [Quick-shot Jack]."
"...."
Can I really trust this guy...?
