Irie led Therina through the local slave markets with a hood covering her face. Therina wore a similar garb as the human under her insistence that their identities remained hidden to protect themselves.
It wasn't a crime to purchase a slave, but if a connection was made between Irie and Therina and then by association, the dungeon, it could cause a lot of backlash for her in the public sector.
The Relevant was a kingdom wide newspaper which released throughout the city twice a week. Whilst the dungeon city was far from the central hub of the Maple Dragon Kingdom, it was still near one of the kingdom's forbidden zones.
There was a well staffed office of The Relevant in the dungeon city with lots of reporters out looking for stories. The slave markets were a place they liked to frequent, and if any high profile figure were to start purchasing slaves, it would definitely be reported on.
Therina paid three copper for a newspaper from a pop up stall and stared closely at it.
"Read it for me," She demanded and handed the paper to Irie.
"…If you can't read human characters, why buy it?"
"I can speak them just fine, as pig like the language is. Styx should be a recent hot topic, I've heard adventurers and mercenaries alike whispering about a rogue dungeon lord in the area."
"Fine, but it will have to wait until we arrive at the auctions."
The two women didn't stop in the public slave markets that were outdoors, but the grand halls where higher quality slaves were auctioned off to the highest bidders.
They paid an entry fee at the door to one hall which had pictures of some of the promoted slaves for sale that night. What caught Therina's attention to this one in particular was that one of the slaves for sale was an elf.
It was nobody Therina recognized, but it still caught her attention.
"You know, Styx had me investigate the mercenary group that attacked your village, and where your village members were sold…"
"…" Therina looked at Irie out of the corner of her eye with a cold gaze, not responding to the topic she brought up.
"The elves were all enslaved and sold not long after they were brought back to the city. They went to various rich households and… well, single bachelors who would sell an arm and a leg to acquire a beautiful elf. With the money you have along with some of my help, you may be able to buy some of them back…"
"That is unnecessary."
"I also sold the information on Styx to that mercenary group and had an employee keep an eye on them so you will know when they depart."
"Did Styx make you do that as well?"
"No, that was thought on my part. I assume you would want revenge, and I need to remain in Styx's good graces too."
"You have done something unnecessary."
Therina's cold voice echoed in the gold detailed private room of the action house. The two sat down on a large, comfortable sofa. There was a small table in front of it with cold beverages laid out for the VIP customers along with other sweets to nibble on while the auctions were taking place.
The private room had a one way window which allowed them to see out, but others not in.
The room was very expensive, costing 50 gold to book instead of the standard 10 silver entry fee, but Irie had insisted on it.
They could call out their bids from within the room if their voices were powerful enough, or they could simply use the magic panel they were provided to make their bids in a more discreet way.
"Now, read me the news."
"Of… of course. It says:"

Lastest News! Illegal Dungeon Identified!
There has recently been reports that there is a new dungeon nearby Lagoon Porter City that has been reported to have been found. The discoverers of this dungeon are Silver Wheel Investment Company. As for how they located this dungeon, we are still trying to find out.
Currently the youngest branch manager in the history of the company, Miss Irie Naeckle shot up the bureaucratic layers of the company so fast the discovery of the dungeon is suspected to have come from this young yet promising individual.
Those who have the information on this dungeon are remaining tight lipped, but our sources have revealed some details.
The dungeon is designed intricately, meaning there is a hidden dungeon lord hiding in the shadows. The monsters in this dungeon apparently don't return to mana after death as well. We all know what this means…
They were bred, not summoned! An action both illegal and immoral to the highest degree.
There is currently an illegal dungeon lord on the loose and nobody knows anything in detail. Duke Ashburn's son, Gabralter Ashburn also appears upset by this information and is seeking any and all details on the dungeon.
Duke Ashburn himself, as well as the Silver Wheel Investment Company, have both refused to comment on the current situation and what they are doing to combat this act of atrocity which seems to be taking place not far from the beautiful Lagoon Porter City.

Therina raised her brow at this information and chuckled under her breath.
"Has the duke come seeking information?" She asked Irie in contemplation.
Irie had pinched her brow at the news article, deep in thought.
"No, but it looks like he may be paying the company a visit sometime soon. I will have to decide how to respond to him… Urgh, this is a pain."
"There is no need to be concerned over it."
"That's easy for you to say, you don't understand how strong he is."
"…?"
"The duke himself is in the latter half of the Third Step, while many of his core guards have similar levels. I have done my best to keep the information out of the hands of Third Step adventurers or mercenaries, but I won't be able to just decline the duke if he insists."
Therina pondered for a while and thought of Aura's strength. She hadn't met a Third Step adventurer before, but she felt like Aura should be able to fight them off or at least form a powerful deterring force should the duke decide to act himself.
"Don't worry, just try not reveal much information. If it comes down to it, play down Styx's worth."
"Of course."
As the two were conversing, they started to pay more attention to the auction that was taking place. By now, many of the earlier slaves had already been either sold or sent back to be re auctioned at another date.
"This 17-year-old young lady is a <Lv. 3> Apprentice Fire Mage, she is a debt slave so she also has no history of past crimes, and is very friendly towards others. As a mage class, the starting bid is 20 gold!"
Many people started a bidding war over the mage class girl, whom was eventually sold for 78 gold and 50 silver.
The next slave was a 12 year old boy who was dressed relatively nicely. Seeing someone who met the criteria she was looking for, Therina immediately grabbed the magic display on the table and placed the opening bid on him of 3 gold.
Children weren't exactly a highly sought after commodity in the above ground auctions, so there wasn't a high deal of interest in them and Therina won with just the opening bid.
Three more children, two boys and a girl, were also bought by Therina during the auction for another 12 gold altogether.
All the slaves had metal collars around their necks, but that was mainly symbolic and for the purpose of their slavery to be made known. An owner could remove the collar, but it was an action frowned upon by society.
The true compulsion came from the complex slave crest tattooed on their bodies, each unique with the slave traders own signature lock, a magical syntax encryption key which prevented others from tampering with the crest.
They then departed the private room in secret, paid for the slaves and entered a brightly lit private office. In here, the slave trader used his skills to operate the children's slave crest and bound them to Therina.
"Is there a way to transfer ownership?" Therina asked curiously, intending Piri's parents to be the slave owners.
"Of course," The tuxedo wearing slave trader nodded his head. "You just need to bring them in here alongside their citizen ID so we can transfer ownership. There is a service fee of 10 silver for it, though."
Realizing that Asta or Joel would have to be citizens and present, she immediately threw that thought out of mind and would simply command the slaves to follow their orders.
The final documents were then signed, Therina receiving a copy of the Proof of Slave Ownership while the original document was to be forwarded to the official slave registry.The man then gave a customary explanation about slave rights, ensuring their new owners were aware of the laws applicable to their new slaves, the owner's requirements etc.
Therina unhesitatingly commanded the nervous slave children to follow her, explaining what their tasks were on the way.
"So, we are required to be someone's friends and playmates?" One of the boys asked curiously, wondering what kind of rich but socially outcast child they were to be forced friends with.
"Correct. We don't live in the city, and there is nobody else to play with her. It will undoubtable take some to become adjusted to things, but I'm sure you all will get along in no time."
The children were confused, but they had no choice but to follow whatever they told him. As long as it wasn't against the basic safety conditions in their slave crests, refusal would result in an ever growing excruciating pain. It would also force a compulsion on their mind to do the task, which took an extremely firm will to resist.
All the children became nervous when the group departed the city at the brink of dusk.
~~~~~
⠀
"We'll be living in this… dungeon?" The girl of the group asked while uncontrollably trembling.
"Yes. The girl also lives here, we will first visit Styx, then you will go to meet Piri and her family."
Styx was following everyone through their bond, so he had informed Therina and Irie to bring the children to him first. He needed to form his bond with the girl, while also explaining to them their daily lives from henceforth.
The children came to stand before Styx, who was sitting on his throne in a domineering manner. He thought one of them would wet their pants with how much they were shaking, but it seemed he had assessed them too soon. It was thankful the Aura was currently away to wherever she disappears to, else there would undoubtable be four children, and maybe one adult, with completely saturated pants.
"Girl, come here." Styx commanded the young human girl with shoulder length hair, who looked towards Therina for acknowledgement before walking toward the dungeon's avatar.
"Were the rules explained to you?" He followed up, to which she curtly nodded her head. "Good."
Styx picked her up and sat her on his knee, placing his open palm against her stomach and letting his mana tendrils extend into her body. After a careful and slow journey through her still developing mana network, he fused a piece of himself in her mind.
"Ah!" the girl exclaimed and begun looking everywhere as she gained the ability to see mana.
"It is done," Styx stated without hesitations, his mana tendrils extracting themselves from her body and leaving her with a lonely, hollow feeling in the pit of her stomach. "Go with Therina and meet Piri. You are to be her friends from now on, a frequent part of her life. You will go to school and learn with her as well."
The children and Therina left, leaving on Irie behind. The woman resolutely looked at Styx and stated, "You promised me strength."
Styx hinted for her to ascend the steps and join him before responding, "And strength you shall get. But it will be for you to put in the effort to gain, I only facilitate the possibility."
Styx pulled Irie into his arms and immediately invaded her body with his mana tendrils. She moaned in pleasure at the feeling and weakly leaned against his body.
"This doesn't feel… fair."
"Your mana network is currently at capacity, why haven't you levelled up?" Styx asked while ignoring her idle complaints. "It is a bit larger than a normal mana network though, so it looks like you've trained well."
"I have consumed a lot of spiritual fruits previously to expand my body's ability to absorb potential, while ensure I fill it up before levelling, but I hold no means of actively checking."
Styx begun expanding her mana network channels and strengthening the walls.
"This is a long process, I want you to visit at least once a week."
"O…okay."
Styx's wolf like hand then slipped into her shirt, his fingers gently caressing her stomach as his hand reached further and further up her shirt.
Irie didn't resist, merely closing her eyes and nestling her head between his shoulder and head, her hot breath directly entering his ear.
He felt her underboob first, large perfectly round mounds of squish flesh that pressed down on top of his hand. He gently scratched the bottom of her large breast before slowly running his hand further up and taking a full hand grasp of the fleshy mound.
His fingers sank into her flesh and his thumb buried in her cleavage as she pressed face deeper into the crook of his neck. He could feel the erect pink nipple teasing the palm of his hand, causing him to squeeze it his palms as he gradually fondled her breasts.
One hand molded her tits between its fingers while the other supporting her and simultaneously scratching up and down her back. Feeling like it wasn't enough, he created a breeder beside his throne, the tentacles stretching out and crawling around Irie's waist.
"Yip!" Irie called out in shock and looked down as she felt far too many limbs grabbing her at once, almost scaring the life life out of her.
The tentacles climbed up her torso, constricting around her and massaging her taut muscles.
Mana tendril also extended from them, making her skin tingle with pleasure wherever they touched. Styx's hand released her breast and trailed down her stomach, untying the cord and sliding into her skirt.
Tentacles wrapped around and squeezed her breast while Styx's hand reached her hot, moist crevice. His fingers rubbed the clitoris and sensitive surroundings with no mercy, sending waves of ecstasy through her body.
"Haah… Haah…" Irie panted and pulled her head back, taking the initiative to kiss Styx on the mouth.
She shoved her tongue into his mouth while her hands naively roamed across Styx's body, eventually reaching for the very large rod in his pants. Feeling the girth and size with her hands, Irie started to have a cold sweat, wondering if such an object would even fit in her.
"Would that… fit?" She nervously asked while spreading her legs further apart to allow Styx's hand easy access.
"Of course, but it will hurt at first."
"…I know that, obviously."
Styx hooked a finger and plunged it into her moist hole, mana tendrils ticking the inner walls of her vagina.
"Ngghhhhh… Haaahhh… ahhh…" Irie did her best to stifle her moans as the finger pierced deep inside of her and caused her to climax, her nails digging into Styx's chest.
The tentacled begun pulling at her cloths, prompting her to cooperate as they stripped her of every last article of clothing before assisting Styx in removing his.
Irie sat on Styx's lap, her back against his chest while his arms tightly embraced her. One hand tightly embraced her and gripped her large breasts, while the other one continued to rummage about and tease the folds of her vagina.
His penis was rock hard between her firm thighs, which tightly gripped it as her vagina pressed against the large phallus and spread a slick coating of vaginal fluid onto it.
Irie felt herself going crazy from the waves of ecstasy constantly wracking her body. She grabbed Styx's cock and tugged and pulled, pushing her hips against it and rubbing her vagina up and down the thick shaft.
"Relax your body," Styx commanded as he nibbled her ear lobe and his hands reached down and cupped around her ass.
He picked up and lowered her waist on top of his shaft. There was resistance at first, as the tip of his dick pressed against the opening of her vagina, but it soon pierced through that due to the copious amounts of vaginal fluid that flowed out, wetter her pubes and his shaft together.
Irie spread her legs wide apart and grabbed the penis which the tip had penetrated her. She firmly grabbed onto it and tugged in a manner as if to pull it deeper inside herself.
Styx slowly lowered Irie further down his shaft, which spread her vagina as wide as it would go.
She cried out in pain and a thin trickle of blood ran down his penis, but she still had half the penis to go before it was fully inserted.
Her vaginal walls tightened and clenched around his penis as it pushed back and pierced deeper, one tiny bit after another.
Finally Irie had been fully lowered and was sitting down on his lap again, this time with a giant meaty rod spreading her vagina wide open as her body weight ensured it penetrated as deeply as it would go.
The tip of his penis pressed very tightly against the entrance of her womb, even somewhat forcing it open as it partially poked through and sent a sharp jolt of electricity through her body.
"It… actually… went in," Irie said with a cramped expression as she was experiencing all the pain that came with losing her virginity, especially to something of such a large size.
"It is natural, but I will help you heal. This is also the first time I will help you try feel your own mana network, which will help you in controlling your own mana to heal and recover later."
Irie nodded her head as she felt the pain from her vagina gradually weakening. There was also another sensation, which was from her mana network being used, but it was like a ghost she couldn't see nor touch.
Her thoughts were rapidly scattered as tentacles teased her clit while also making her start raising her hips before lowering them back down again.
She raised her hips in a slow rhythm before forcing herself back down again, taking his penis fully inside her as her vaginal lips pressed tightly against the base of his shaft.
Styx puller her waist down and moved his hips slightly in rhythm, pushing his penis against the entrance of her womb and becoming threateningly close to pushing its way into there as well.
"NnngghahhhhhHHH!"
Irie was overcome with pleasure again and climaxed almost immediately, unable to hold in her moans, or perhaps no longer caring, as she practically howled.She grabbed onto his hands or the roaming tentacles, anything she could grab onto, and dug her nails into it as her vagina tightened around and strangled the penis inside of her.
She didn't stop moving and shook her waist in wide movements, pulling herself up and slamming her hips down again with even more vigor.
"Yes! Right there! It feels so GOOD!" She cried out in ecstasy, any form of restraint or embarrassment long gone from her movement.
The pain had completely vanished and she lost herself deep in the waves of ecstasy.
Styx also groaned at her excessively tight vagina forcing its way up and down his shaft. He made sure to constantly control her mana network to heal any damage from the forced actions but he reached his limit very quickly.
Styx grabbed her waist and forcefully pulled her hips tight against his, her now sweaty back tightly pressed against his chest. His other hand wrapped around her and tightly grabbed her breasts in its wolf like grip.
Her long black hair covered his face which buried itself against her neck and nibbled on the flesh, and action Therina deeply enjoyed. Not being able to see was inconsequential when he had an omnipresent sight within the dungeon.
He pulled on her tightly as the tip of his penis pushed open her womb entrance right before he release a giant load of dungeon seed directly into it.
Styx groaned in pleasure as she constricted around him again, her vagina wringing out any remaining seed inside of the shaft.
Irie felt the warmth as if it were filling up her stomach while being completely enamoured in the feeling. She wished they could merge their bodies into one, pushing her back against his chest while tightly gripping onto his hands.
She tilted her head back while turning her neck and begun passionately kissing Styx.
"That was… just… incredible…" She spoke between showering him in kisses before sealing his mouth and bringing his tongue into her mouth for her to lick and nibble on.

Irie seemed to feel something taking hold inside of her and pressed her fingers through Styx's before clenching her hands.
"If you want to do it again… I don't mind."
Irie stared into his eyes with a slightly crazed gaze. Styx only considered it to be that she was being more honest with herself and less reserved, not thinking any deeper on it.
"You need to give birth first, and your body can't do it repeated times in quick succession."
Irie had a bit of a disappointed expression but she accepted his words without rebuttal. Styx stood up while holding Irie and raised her off his cock. He meat slid out of her and unlocked the dam as a bunch of seed poured out of Irie onto the stone floor, whom blushed in embarrassment in response.
"I understand…"
Styx then called Therina over and helped Irie redress herself.
"Go with Therina and get to know the others in the dungeon. The bees also need to meet you so they can register you as someone not to attack. You will give birth in two hours, after which you will undoubtably feel exhausted. The other girls will help prepare food and aid you."
Therina then led Irie away to introduce her to the dungeon and other inhabitants. Irie held one hand on her stomach as she felt it slowly begin to inflate as a monster grew inside of her.
She had originally felt very adverse to the idea, but currently, she strangely didn't feel all the abject to the concept.
~~~~~
⠀
Irie lay on a padded bed specifically for giving birth to monsters. The fabric covering the padding was slick and could easily be cleaned between uses, so it was currently clean and fresh.
She lay in the position for childbirth with her lower half completely naked, legs spread wide apart.
"Now, breathe, in… and out… in… and out," Therina calmly placated her with her oriole like voice twittering in her ear.
Irie seemed to not be embarrassed at all, which was partially because she currently recognized the beautiful elf as another one of Styx's women. She had met the other women and was feeling slightly inferior when her looks were compared against an elf's, but she took consolation in the fact that her breasts were larger than most of theirs, which Styx seemed to greatly enjoy fondling.
Her stomach was currently greatly enlarged in the shape of a bulb. She rubbed it tenderly before the seemingly thin film holding the new monster inside of her broke and a large amount of fluid flowed out of her and onto the bed.
Sensing it ready for birth, her body began contracting as she forced it out of her womb and through her vaginal canal.
"Unghh!!" Irie bit into the provided leather strap to muffle her scream and scrunched her eyes in pain.
Therina massaged her lower abdomen and coached her through the entire process as the head of an infant monster squeezed its way out of the entrance to her vagina.
Irie panted in weakness before giving several more pushes. Therina continued massaging her abdomen, even helping massage the top of her inner thighs and vaginal entrance with her warm and dextrous fingers, helping Irie relax and squeeze out the monster in its entirety.
She eventually gave one final push and the monster was completely free from her body and into Therina's waiting hands. Irie's stomach had now returned to its perfectly slender form, albeit feeling slightly empty.
The new monster was quite large, an earthy brown creature currently covered in thick and sticky vaginal fluid. It had two legs and two arms, but the arms were clearly out of proportion with very long fingers to match. Those fingers had the faint sheen of metal and would turn into long, deadly claws once it grew into adulthood.
Therina held the monster tenderly and looked at the human woman lying weakly on the bed, her large chest heaving up and down. Despite this, Irie looked towards the monster in Therina's hand with a strange gaze.
"Would you like to hold it as well?" She asked in curiosity.
Irie nodded briefly and accepted the monster just after Therina finished wiping the goop from inside of her vagina off of it.
She held the tiny monster in her arms with complex emotions, absentmindedly speaking to herself.
"So this is… his highness' and my child…"
Therina picked up on her words and grasped her face with her hands on her cheeks. She gazed deeply into Irie's eyes as the latter stared back with a similar expression.
"Hoh, it looks like you too have grasped onto it firmly," The elf said as a broad, yet slightly crazed, grin spread across her face. "By taking the piece of Styx deeper inside yourself, you take in more of his power. It makes you stronger, faster, and grow quicker, but it takes a lot of courage to unhesitatingly and without guard completely take him into yourself."
Irie seemed to understand what Therina was saying and curtly nodded. Their faces were merely several hairs apart as both women grinned.
"To think you would be able to love darling as much as me on your first time. For a human, you're not too bad. Darling just completed his current new room which we are to all move into, we must make sure we get a good spot on the bed."
The door to the room opened as Therina and Irie lightly giggled to one another, revealing Elena with a bowl of mana rich mushroom porridge.
"It's not the greatest, but this will…" She began explaining, blushing and turning her eyes away the moment she saw the two women being seemingly intimate while the human's still inflamed red vagina was completely exposed. "I know we are all Styx's women but… what exactly are you doing?"
"It's nothing," Therina tittered, leaving the dark elf to deliver the food to the currently weakened human whom she was now holding a greatly enhanced impression of.
