Monster Girl Ranching in Another World

Chapter 168 - Nixi's Mother, Unlike The Others



Every project turned out the same, and while at Mex's Keep in the hills of the state of Deslanitia, Kieta had fallen deeper into her sadness. Even though Mex didn't care if she created anything, Kieta cared and knew Mex was constantly criticized for keeping her around.

Mex had noticed this but was not sure what to do about it. At the time, not even his wife or anyone had respected him, so he had no one to turn to for help.

Then the ruling Rank C Demon Queen, Deslantia, forced Dao out of his Castle and Gardania.

After discovering Doa's demon farms, the state's ruler was told by the Scourge himself to remove him. The farms would restrict the number of higher-ranked Demons the ruling King could produce to fill his own ranks.

The Demon King, Scourge, was constantly under siege from other high Ranking Demon Kings, but this was normal. The battle rage the demons fed off was literally how they survived and trained the best fighters.

Anyone that died wasn't worthy in the Scourge's eyes, and he would recycle Demons until he had the perfect army. Everything was in preparation for the day that a real hero would come, and it would happen; Scourge knew this.

The last words had been the same, but the ruler of this Demonscaper Army had almost lost to the first real hero he had met. Mark had almost beaten him, but the Scourge had defeated him, yet Zero had forced him to spare the man and then had taken him.

Needless to say, a minor Demon Lord like Doa of the lowest rank plugging up the reentry for new Demons. On top of them not being under the ruling King's control, the lower-ranked Demon rebirths very rarely ever produced even a single rank higher.

This was not good for business, so to speak, and Queen Deslantia was told to kill him and all of the followers. While the Queen would have no problem killing Doa and his overconfident son Neft, but Mex was one of her many grandsons.

Deslantia had forced them all onto boats in the middle of the night after thoroughly obliterating each of the three Lord's settlements. After saying goodbye to her Daughter Nixi and the rest of her family, Deslantia sent them away and told them to never come back.

They had made many stops during the trip across the sea, and Mex had picked up passengers along the way. Kieta had remained held up in her room at the start of the journey, but Mex made her go out with him on his stops.

While on the boat, Kieta had not been able to work on any of her projects for fear of them getting wet or ruined. At first, she had not been happy about going to talk with random people, and Mex almost had to tie her up the first time they had left the ships.

People had always just been distractions from her work, and Mex had never forced her out of her shop before this. Forced to tag along and interact with the strange natives they met on each island, Kieta had been angry with Mex at first.

Then they met a cute but strange-looking girl that lived in the water they met on the way to the island. This would be later discovered to be Mary's sister, Mati, a Killer whale/ Mermaid.

Unlike the creatures of earth's oceans, the Killer whales were savage killers that revealed in carnage and the blood of their enemies. Then, there was Mati, unlike the rest of her kind, who was a kind and curious soul that only wanted to explore and meet new people.

Mati's curious nature had made her ask Kieta many questions on the way to the island and had appeared at the side of the boat on the way back. Following them from each island, Kieta soon became friends with Mati for the first time in her life.

They spent most of the trip together until they almost reached the destination, but Mati had said she had to go when they got close to the island. Kieta had begged her to stay, but Mati had said there was too much of the world left for her to explore.

Kieta had been sad but had understood that the two of them were two different people, but Mati's had become more than just a friend to her. Kieta had cried for weeks, even after Mex had constructed her new shop, and nothing anyone did would help.

Finally, Mex had come down one night to come and visit and explained to her about his dreams to one day leave the island. Kieta had not spoken during this time, but her tears had stopped like Mex had known they would have.

He was not blind, but Mex had been running around the island saving every creature that he could find from Dao and his son, Neft. Mex had gone over and hugged Kieta to explain his dreams of one day escaping the horrible Demon culture he had been born into.

Kieta had always found Mex strange since she had been around the foul creatures her entire life, yet he was the exception to the rest. From that day forward, Kieta started to build things again, but this time she was only using it to pass the time because Mex was the only person she had ever trusted.

Now, a little red-skinned woman was very similar to her own size in her shop. Keri, that was the name she had heard, and she was utterly ignoring Kieta as she went over the weapons and contraptions.

Not sure what to say, Kieta just stood there watching Keri until Jilly and Veronica made their way down into her shop.

"Why can't you just wait for us, Kiki?" Jilly asked after she straightened up from coming down the stairs and then looked over at the startled-looking Kieta. "Sorry for invading like this, but we wanted to know if you would like to join us for a trip to the beach?"
