What Do You Mean There Are Other Transmigrators In My Harem Fantasy?

My Shadow Guards returned with all the loot they managed to gather from killing all those Monsters and Monster Girls.

"That's… A lot of Mana Crystals…" I muttered, looking at the large pile of them that reached up to my knees in height.

By my estimate, there should be at least a few thousand of those rocks in there.

Just how many Monsters and Monster Girls did they even kill?

I turned to Verdam who was also staring at the pile of loot in front of us, "Do you want any of this? Since you did say that you need to use a lot of Mana Crystals to create those Monster Girls."

He looked at me in surprise, "You're… Giving them to me?"

I puffed my cheeks, "Not all of it. Just a portion of it."

"That's already more than I can ask for! If you don't mind… I'll take whatever you're offering!"

Well, it's not like I have a lack of them anyway. I still have a lot of Mana Crystals which I sometimes use to refill my mana after I summon new Shadow Guards every night before I went to sleep.

What? You think I have too many Shadow Guards?

Please, there's no such thing as 'too many' Shadow Guards.

Besides… This was also a way for me to train my magic so there was literally no reason for me not to do that.

Anyway, I decided to just give him half of it and he took those Mana Crystals away gleefully.

Aside from the Mana Crystals, it seems like I've also received a few Monster Girl Stones.

Compared to the pile of Mana Crystals from earlier, this pile was way more pathetic in number and it didn't even reach up to the back of my hand in height if I were to put my palm on the table.

There were only a handful of them but it seems like there's quite a number of different variations for this stone.

Thus, I had to pull Verdam back here to explain them to me.

Sure, I could just use [Screened] for it but might as well make this guy work for it instead.

"Oh, you got quite a good haul it seems. Then again, you did clear out the entire Dungeon so I guess that's not surprising you got this much… Let's see here…"

He starts separating the stones into different piles which I assume was according to what their effects were.

I also noticed that they were different colours with them being red, blue and yellow with the red pile being the most numerous and the yellow pile being the least.

He first pointed to the red pile, "Those are the Standard Monster Girl Stones. I think you can pretty much guess what it does from the name. They have a fifty percent capture rate so even if a Monster Girl has agreed to follow you, there's only a fifty percent chance of it working. The caveat is that they will need to stay in the Stone and can only come out of it for two hours a day before they have to return into the Stone again. Also, the Monster Girl is able to rebel against you if you treat them badly enough."

I gave him a pointed look, "Wait… You're telling me that even if someone already convinced the Monster Girl to follow them out of the Dungeon… There's still a chance of it failing?"

"Yep~"

"And they will just need to keep farming for it if they keep failing?"

"That's right~"

"But… Doesn't that mean they will keep having to kill Monster Girls just to get it? What if they end up falling for another one?"

"Then they will keep farming more! Isn't it genius?"

Damn… This guy is absolutely diabolical… I love it.

"But what if there's some people who are against hurting the Monster Girls? They won't be attracted to this Dungeon at all even if it means getting a Monster Girl for themselves."

He raised a finger before pausing and dropping it back down, "That's… A good point… Do you have any suggestions?"

I looked around before gesturing around vaguely, "How about… Instead of just populating the entire Dungeon with only Monster Girls… You still let normal Monsters spawn? Then people would be incentivised to hunt the Monster for drops and then also hunt for Monster Girls to woo as well?"

"So the Monster Girls now become something like a prize for the challengers to search for instead of something that they can find easily… But what if there's a lot more challengers than Monster Girls?

"That's what you have floors for right? You can adjust the number accordingly for each floor so maybe the first few floors have lower numbers of Monster Girls and more Monsters while the deeper floors have more Monster Girls instead? Heck you could have specific floors where there might be just Monster Girls or a single type of Monster Girls for that floor. You can control that, right?"

He stared at me, "Are you… Maybe also a Dungeon Master or something?"

I scratched my head, "Ah… No… I just like to read stories about them I guess…"

"That's great too! Hey, how about you help me with the designing of my Dungeon? I think we'll do really good together!"

I immediately shook my head, "No thanks… I'd rather not get myself involved in that if I can help it. I just thought that this could help you improve your Dungeon."

He opened the Dungeon window again and it seemed like he was writing down notes on the window.

"Any other advice, please? I'll take anything you can give."

"Err… Right. One thing I wanted to say is that you might want to get someone else or something to announce the start of the fight instead of announcing it yourself. Kind of ruins the mood a little especially when you have to give a command directly after the announcement."

He quickly typed that in as well before looking at me again in anticipation.

"Err… I guess maybe tag team battles or something instead of just one versus one? Then there's the player interference thing which you already said that you're going to think about it anyway."

He quickly typed in a few more lines into the notes before scratching his head, "Yeah… Damn… I really need to consider all the different references… Should I allow the Monster Girls to like… I dunno, ultra evolve or something?"

"We already have player interference don't we? I don't think that's necessary…"

"Right, right… I'll probably put a limit on the tier of magic and in the case of someone with no magic… allow items to be used…"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

I looked up at him, "That means you can also include specific items to be dropped in your Dungeon like recovery items so you can limit what kind of items can be used."

"Oh shit, you're a genius! Yeah, let's do that!"

I heard Mother giggle behind me and I didn't even need to look to know she was saying something like "as expected of my little one" or something along those lines.

He continued, "Speaking about the Monster Girls… The sad thing is that I'll have to scrap that since that function would have allowed all kinds of Monster Girls to spawn throughout the Dungeon which wouldn't work in this one…"

"Eh? Why? Can't you just duplicate it for each floor and just adjust the setting of it from there? Like maybe add in some kind of rule for it that only certain Monster Girls can spawn there or just leave it as it is on floors that you want free reign?"

"You know, at this point I think you might as well be the Dungeon Master. Is there like a function where I can assign a secondary Dungeon Master or something?"

I just rolled my eyes at him.

He finished typing to look at me again and this time I shrugged, "That's pretty much what I have at the moment."

"Right… I guess I know of the perfect payment for your help in this! Seriously, if you weren't here to help me with this, I'd probably still be stuck making all those mistakes so I won't take no for answer for this!"

He shut off the window and pointed at the blue Monster Girl Stones, which reminded me that I haven't gotten an explanation for the others yet.

"Just so that you know, these blue ones are the Great Monster Girl Stones. This one has a hundred percent capture rate but only if the Monster Girl has consented to it otherwise it's still at fifty percent. Instead of two hours, it will now be twelve hours that the Monster Girl can stay outside of the stone."

He moved on to the yellow one and I could sense the smugness radiating off from him.

"And these are the Ultra Monster Girl Stones! A hundred percent capture chance if they consent, eighty percent chance if they don't. And this one allows the Monster Girl to stay outside of the Stone as long as it is supplied with mana so it can be through Mana Crystals or your own Mana!"

Yeah… Gonna be honest, not really useful to me since I already have the Absolute one.

He then waved his hand over it, "Now your payment!"

The piles of Monster Girl Stones suddenly melted into puddles of goop and I thought he was trolling me until they melded together to form a single black stone.

Oh… He just gave me another Absolute Monster Girl Stone.

Cool.
