The scouting team, consisting of Benimaru and others returned to the village.
It doesn't seem like they have been named yet.
Yes!
"Alright. So... your names are: Benimaru, Souei, Hakurou, Kurobe, Shuna, Shion."
I managed to name all 6 with just half of my magicules+absorbing from the environment. Even after I had just named Nexis.
In fact, naming them per person took way less than with other Ogres. I guess Nexis made the process far more efficient.
"Thank you for saving our village and naming us."
"Sure sure. Alright. Everyone, line up! I am powering you up!"
"Huh!?"
I fused a Greater Space-Fire Spirit into Benimaru.
"Thank you, Apolloyon-sama."
For Shuna...
[Using Degenerate to separate Greater Fire Elemental Spirit...]
[Fire Element Magic and Greater No-Element Spirit acquired]
[Using Degenerate to fuse Light Elemental Magic and Greater No-Element Spirit...]
[Greater Light Elemental Spirit acquired]
I gave her a Greater Light Elemental Spirit.
"Thank you Apolloyon-sama!"
The same way, I also acquired Greater Dark Elemental Spirit and Greater Time Elemental Spirit and their combinations as well.
What can I say, [Degenerate] is a really great Unique Skill! It was wasted on Shizu and then Rimuru in the OG story. With all the spirits fused into me, especially Time, I can now function in stopped time as well.
Anyway, I gave Greater Dark-Space Elemental Spirit to Souei. I like his vibes. Ninjas are cool.
"Thank you."
"Sure."
Greater Water-Space Elemental Spirit to Hakurou. He is a cool guy I will train under.
"I must thank Apolloyon-sama."
"Hmm."
For Shion... Hmmm... I hate her, but she will become a strong underling... Oh. I don't have poison resistance huh? I guess I will have to eat some of her food. She does have pretty good poison making skills.
I guess a Space Element Spirit will be enough.
"Thank you Apolloyon-sama!"
She tried to grab my squishy body, but I slapped her hand away. Who does she think she is?
"Hakurou, educate her and beat the stupidity out of her."
"I am sorry about her."
"Yeah. Make sure it doesn't happen again."
I ignored her, and called for 'Next!'.
It was my man Kurobe. The weapon maker.
Hmmm, what will help him in making better weapons?
Hmmmmmmmmmm...
Maybe this will be the best?
I fused a Greater Rainbow Spirit into him, consisting of all 8 elements. I know a rainbow is supposed to have 7, but it's the best name I came up with.
I guess this way he will be able to make all kinds of weapons.
"Thank you Apolloyon-sama!!!"
"Make great weapons and help around in building the village, okay?"
"I will do my best!"
I also gave him the Car Prototype.
"Finish it. And make it so that it can travel in any terrain."
"Yes Apolloyon-sama!"
I used Thought Communication to send him images and videos of cars, monster trucks, tanks and such.
After he is done with this car for Milim, I will copy it and introduce into the army. Then we will move onto Metro. Then fighter jets and missiles.
I fused spirits into the rest of the Kijins according to Nexis's recommendations.
And finally, it was the turn of Shizu.
She appeared hesitant. Of course, since she has trauma with Ifrit.
"Don't worry, these Spirits aren't actual spirits. They are created by me, so they won't try to control anyone.
They are safe for kids too."
She nodded, and said with a resolute face.
"I trust you, Apolloyon-san."
So, I fused Greater Rainbow Spirit into her.
Now, I guess I need more underlings. The Lizards, some goblins who can evolve into Ogres later down the line, Elves, and all sorts of monsters.
The remaining 100K Orcs for all the construction I want will be a significant manpower.
As for food...
I guess I will get all kinds of plants and create several superfoods.
But right now, let's see what to do with Orc Lord.
