Chapter 44 - Florida Man Wrestles Naked Monster Woman in Public to Promote Women's Rights in Another World
Joxonu, the Third Disciple of Alchemy Saint
Born with an ugly face, Joxonu was cursed since childhood. His parents hated him for being born ugly. His neighbors believed he was a demon. At the age of six, he was sold as a slave to a visiting merchant, who resold Joxonu to Alchemy Saint Xavior Faunir.
Studying under Xavior Faunir together with two other colleagues for decades, Joxonu achieved the fifth circle. However, due to the lack of talent, Joxonu parted ways with his master to research black magic. After traveling across the continent and visiting different countries, Joxonu settled at Aero Academy City and worked as a professor there, where he offered his service to Bill Turo. At the age of 165, he encountered misfortune and passed away during the conflict between the Turo House and the Lundop House.
Regarding the Black Forest and Lamias
When Joxonu was in his 20s, he was captured by a Lamia warrior in the Crimson Desert and was almost turned into a seedbed. Fortunately, his ugly face disgusted the creatures, and they released him. Learning about the culture of Lamias by chance, Joxonu took advantage of the information by establishing an illegal trade channel, abducting and sending handsome young men to Lamias in exchange for rare resources, such as Lamia shredded skins and mana crystals.
Unfortunately, their relationship fell through after the war between the Lundop and the Turo House started. As Robert offered a new source of freshwater to their tribes, the Lamias sided with the Lundop House and cut ties with Joxonu.
Returning the favor, Joxonu abducted a dozen young Lamias and sold them to other academy professors and noblemen. As these monsters could only give birth to female Lamias and they made a good sex slave, these Lamias were always in high demand. Many noblemen, including Bill Turo, offered a high price for a young one.
Last known Lamia's market price: 1,000 first-rated mana stones.

Zilo, the Salary Mage
Born in Terra City in a warm family, Zilo's life was paved by his predecessors. He realized his talent in Earth magic when he was 3, earning him a position in the local army automatically. For almost four decades, he worked in Terra City as a combat mage. Occasionally, he received guidance from Roland. With a hardworking attitude and a gifted physique, his magic rank caught up with his master, reaching the second circle at the age of 42. He died in a skirmish against an aura knight from Turo House.
Regarding the Black Forest and Lamias
From a young age, Zilo's parents always warned him not to enter the Black Forest alone as Lamias lurked there and they would kidnap him on sight. To him, Lamias was his childhood bogeyman. But as he grew up, he wished he could make one his wife.
Before the night raid campaign at the border of Terra City, Zilo heard a rumor that his lord, Robert, had struck a deal with the Lamias of Black Forest that they would be their allies in the future. Unfortunately, he died before he could confirm the rumor.

Felix ignored their personal background and skimmed through the Black Forest section. After reading through, he finally understood the general situation.
'So, these monster girls are Robert's temporary friends? Also, what the hell is wrong with these people?'
Felix couldn't believe how these local people fantasized about Lamias. Thinking of how grown men would give birth to Lamia's children through their anuses, he almost vomited in disgust.
'I'll try.'
Regaining hope, Felix stopped being lazy. He looked at the carrier and started talking.
"Er, miss. I have something to tell you."
The leading carrier looked back, "What is it? Can't wait for the ritual? Just stay there quietly and wait for the sunset."
"That's not what I mean. Actually, I'm a part of the Lundop House. My party raided our enemies last night, and I got stranded. Can you let me go?"
"…"
Both carriers and several Lamias nearby stopped slithering and turned around, looking at Felix with a deep frown. One of them gestured to their friends, "Go ask the chiefs."
Three Lamias rushed ahead to report their chieftains. Several minutes later, they returned and relayed the same order.
"Bring him to the front. Chief Zhu wants to see him. Also, release him."
The carriers clicked their tongue and put the crucifix down. They untied the ropes and dragged Felix by his shoulders. On the other hand, Felix let out a long sigh, relieved that the trick worked.
…
Arriving at the forefront of the army, Felix found a chaotic battle between a platoon of armored Lamias and stray soldiers of Turo House.
It was one-sided. A hundred monster girls surrounded a team of 20 human soldiers like a pack of wolves herding a flock of helpless sheep. Some men attempted to break through the encirclement, but the Lamia warriors mercilessly sliced off their legs and kept them alive.
Minutes later, all human soldiers surrendered. The monster girls cheered and escorted the prisoners to the side, where another unit with a hundred crucifixes had been waiting and smiling.
Arriving at the frontline, the group tossed Felix in front of a pink-haired Lamia whose body size was shorter than the others by a few heads. Moreover, she had straight bob hair, decorated with a feather tiara.
The Lamia tribal chief turned around, revealing her gorgeous face, Her hanging ruby earrings and painted crimson armor stood out from the crowd. However, the armor exuded blue air, intimidating everybody around her.
Felix and the Lamia locked eyes. The latter raised her eyebrows while Felix smacked his lips, impressed by each other's appearance. Had Felix never married Jane first, he would have volunteered to be this Lamia's groom.
"You," the Lamia pointed at Felix's face, "You smell delicious."
"…I know. My wife said it, too."
"I mean it literally. Your body odor makes me hungry."
"…"
Felix and the mysterious Lamia stared at each other for a minute while the Lamia warriors guided the captives to the back of the lines. A new platoon took over, marching north instead of south.
The pink Lamia turned around and gestured to her subordinates with her finger, "I want two more scout units to the east and northeast. Secure the perimeter before nightfall. We'll resume the hunt after sundown."
50 giant Lamias in knight armor rushed out from the sides, tearing down bushes and small plants on the way. Although they were twice bigger than Felix, the scout unit disappeared into the forest in less than a minute.
The pink Lamia turned around and resumed their conversation. She pursed her lips and asked Felix.
"Which lord are you serving again? Can I have his name?"
"…Roland Lundop."
"Ah, that kid. He is pretty talented in finding good subordinates, I see."
"Yes. May I leave? I have some businesses elsewhere."
Felix was perplexed why a teenager called an elderly man 'Kid'. He wondered if this was the legendary 'Loli Grandma' that anime enthusiasts worshiped. Aside from their weird relationship, Felix believed he should be in the clear since he had already verified his affiliation.
However, the next words of the pink Lamia betrayed Felix's expectations.
"But the rules are the rules. I can't let a seedbed candidate run away or my tribe will be humiliated. You have to prove your worth first!"
The pink lamia grinned and wiggled her finger, gesturing to her bodyguards behind her. Felix also followed the fingers, looking at the crowd of tall snake women.
*HISS*
A giant silhouette emerged from the shadow behind the crowd. Another half-woman half-snake emerged. Different from the other Lamias, she had the head of a snake, but a body of a muscular female human. Moreover, she wore nothing but a thong, covering her crotch. At 8 feet in height, she towered over Felix, looking down on him.
"Holy…cow."
The snake-head woman hissed, "I'm a proud Lamia Champion! I'm no COW!"
Felix's eyes were fixated on the bouncy mountains and the pink tips. He gulped, ignoring her strange appearance. Once again, he regretted being married too early.
"Man, I wish I were single." Felix lamented.
The pink Lamia continued, "You will fight one of our champions in a duel. If you can defeat her, we'll grant you the privilege of an alpha of our tribe."
"An alpha privilege?"
"You will have the same authority of a chieftain, and you can mate with any member of our tribe, including me." The pink lamia elaborated and winked.
"…Does that mean I will have the authority to leave?"
"Well, you can go wherever you want, if you manage to win, that is."
The snake-head woman sneered, flickering her slit tongue. She opened her mouth and bore her fangs, smiling.
"But if you lose, I get to own you, human! I'll make you fertilize my eggs, and I'll make you hatch my children!"
"…"
These Lamias were weird!
Felix wanted to cry, but his pants were on fire. The kinkiness was so otherworldly that he couldn't help it.
The monster girls including the pink chieftain retreated, making a circle around the snake-head woman and Felix. They then raised metal shields, trapping both of them within the encirclement.
The pink Lamia then announced, "I, Zhu Xin Ci, command you to honor Demon Goddess Zhu Qiao! Should our champion win, she may keep the human champion as a pet! Should the human champion win, he will be respected as a human alpha! May the best warrior win!"
The ceremony was barbaric and simple. Felix didn't even learn his opponent's name or the name of this combat. Moreover, he didn't know the rules.
"Wait, wait, wait! Am I supposed to fight bare hands?" Asked Felix.
Zhu Xin Ci, the pink Lamia shrugged, "Do whatever you want. I doubt you can scratch her skin anyway."
Hearing that he could use anything in this duel, Felix widely grinned. He turned to his opponent and wiggled his fingers, taunting the Lamia Champion.
The snake-head woman roared and leaped at Felix, "HERE I COME, HUMAN!"
Felix pulled out his shotgun from his inventory. Bashfully smiling, he erected his gun, "Here's my cum, ma'am."
*BANG*
