25 absorption




 We'll start examining the "Absorption".

 The method of activating Absorption was extremely simple.

 That method was to suck the life of the target - blood.

 The effect of Absorption is - sucking the life of the target and absorbing its ability.

 Is this a thing?

 The cheat skills of the popular I-TUEEEEEE type of protagonist - robbery?

 We can try this in our crew, right?

 I shift my gaze to the dispositions that are lined up in front of me.

 Slimes, rats, bats, wolves, black wolves, goblins, goblin archers, goblin fighters, kobolds, kobold fighters, kobold knights, orcs, dark elves, giant bats, ghouls, and lycanthropes.

 A total of 16 different castes.

 Get more than 16 different abilities?

 Who shall I absorb it from........

 I slowly examine the subordinates in anticipation.

 Can we start with the weakest one in order? And psychologically, the more abilities I can gain, the stronger and stronger I'll get.

 I slowly move forward to the green puddle -- the slime.

 --!

 Does this thing have blood?

 

 The slime will have to wait. I'll move to the front of the rat.

 ..........................

 In front of me, a huge dull grey rat looks up at me with dull eyes.

 You want me to bite this?

 Then he shifts his gaze to the bats, the wolves, the goblins, the kobolds... and the underlings.

 Isn't it mentally challenging to suck the blood of these guys - to bite them?

 When he became the Demon King, he lost all of his people's memories. As a side effect of this, he also lost the emotion called guilt.

 However, the other emotions have not changed that much since I was a human.

 According to the specifics of 'absorption' as understood by instinct, it is necessary to suck life from the object directly. For example, cutting it with a sword and sipping its blood is not an option.

 If you become a demon king, if you disappear your guilt, couldn't you simultaneously instill emotions like asking for blood when you become a vampire?

 Shucks!

 With all the energy I could muster, I held the female dark elf in my arms and thrust my sharp, sharp canine teeth into her glossy neck.

 --absorption!

 A mellow, deep sweetness seeped into his mouth, and eventually the life (blood) of the dark elf, which was poured down his throat and into his stomach, spread through his body.

''Ma, Master........this, no more.......''

 And then I heard a bewitching murmur in my ear.

 --!

 I shifted my gaze to the dark elf I held in my arms.

In my arms, the owner of the voice - the dark elf - was writhing around, his dark skin flushed and writhing.

''Was that ... your voice?''
'Yes. That's my voice. Master, I'm sorry.

 When I threw the words at him, I received a reply from the dark elf who looked away in embarrassment.

''Oh, did my words reach you...?''
Yes, it has been received. The Master's words have been heard, sir.

 When I hear the dark elf's response, I'm struck with confusion.

''What happened...?''
W-well, I don't know. It's just that ever since the Master sucked my blood, I've been able to understand what he said.

 The dark elf's breath tickles my ear as he replies right in my ear.

"..........? I'm sorry!

 I realize the current situation - I'm still holding the dark elf in my arms, and hurriedly let go of my hand, releasing the dark elf.

''My unclean body........ I beg your pardon.

 The dark elf, who was in the form of being pushed away from me, has a sad expression on his face for a moment, and then immediately bows his head with his usual brisk appearance.

''I, no, it's not like I'm dirty or anything........''

 I sluggishly pile on the excuses and manipulate my smartphone as if to escape.

 There were three additional special abilities on the status screen.

 Language (Elves): understand the language of the elves.

 Flame Magic (Beginner): Able to handle magic of the flame attribute. (Elementary)

 Eagle Arrow: A long and accurate bow and arrow.


 I see. I understand what it means to have a conversation with a dark elf.

 

''Are my words reaching you as well?''

Yes, sir. It's coming.

 The male dark elf replies to my words.

 I was delighted at the unexpected byproduct of 'absorption'.

 Can non-dark elves also learn a language if they 'absorb' it?

 I'm filled with anticipation and I embrace my next in command - the lycanthrope (p*n*s).

 Now for the real food!

 I stick my canine teeth into the neck of the lycanthrope.

 ........Thin? Compared to the dark elves, a thin taste, which is not enough compared to the dark elves, spreads in my mouth.



 At the whispered voice of the glossy dick, I reflexively pop the lycanthrope in my arms.

''.........Higuh?

 Should I have repeated the creation until I could create the lycanthrope (va*in*)........ With some regret, I operate my smartphone to check the status.

 ....What?

 The only special ability that can be absorbed is language? No? All the special powers she absorbed from the dark elves are gone!

"Hey! Are my words getting through to you!

 I wolfishly shout out to the dark elf.

'Ha, yes. Deliver--
Not you!

 For some reason, he blackmailed Lycanthrope, who replied, and ran to the dark elf.

'Are my words getting through to you?'
******

 A familiar and incomprehensible word is spun from the dark elf's mouth, who sadly lowers his eyes.

 The 'absorbed' special ability will be overwritten...?

 I shrugged heavily at the specifications of the 'absorption' that I had revealed.


  ◆


 There were 28 minutes left until the CP was fully recovered.

 I wiped away my disgust and 'absorbed' the lives under my command, one after another.

 As a result...

 Slime: Telekinesis (slime), liquefied.
 Rat: Telekinesis (rat)
 Bat: Telekinesis (bat), ultrasound
 Giant Bat: Telekinesis (Bat), Ultrasonic
 Wolf: Telepathic communication.
 Black Wolf: Telepathic (Wolf), Leadership (Wolf)
 Goblins: Language (Goblins)
 Goblin Archer: Language (Goblin), Archery (F)
 Goblin Fighter: Language (Goblin), Axe Technique (F)
 Kobold: Language (Kobold)
 Kobold Fighter: Language (Kobold), Swordsmanship (F)
 Kobold Knight: Language (Kobold), Shield Technique (F)
 Orcs: Language (Orc), Spearmanship (F)

 And I grasped a special ability that I could 'absorb' from each of my subordinates.

 If I were to explain the special ability briefly, telekinesis is not speaking, but a special ability that allows you to understand the emotions of the other party through your senses. ○ The technique was a special ability that said I could somehow understand how to handle the weapon by instinct, rather than learning a skill like a certain game or creation.

 When I noticed, my CP had reached the upper limit (300). I decided to move on to the verification of my family members, putting the detailed verification on the back burner.

 ........Ghouls? He was the only one who was physiologically unacceptable.
