Harem Overlord Chapter 23: Choosing A Mission

The Mission Hall was a huge hall with different counters according to your cultivation.

The missions were divided into different types – gathering missions which required someone to gather some ingredients, safeguard missions which required you to be a bodyguard, assassination missions where one has to assassinate wanted criminals, and many other missions like domestic help, bandit capture, etc.

The last time Kai had shown his cultivation to the sect, he had to wipe their memories. He pondered for a minute and went to the hell spirit realm mission counter. The elder sitting there looked skeptical at Kai’s entrance.

Nearly everyone in the sect knew about him, the number one genius who could do anything possible. He simply shrugged at the elder’s gaze and released a 1st stage hell spirit cultivation.

The elder just nodded and let Kai look at the available missions.

Mission #1

Objective – Kill 10 needle lizards.

Reward – 70 sect points/140 spirit stones

Mission #2

Objective – Gather herbs for some alchemy masters.

Reward – 40 sect points/80 spirit stones

Mission #3

Objective – Kill a rogue cultivator who stole the wealth of a rich farmer.

Reward – 100 sect points/200 spirit stones

There were many missions but Kai decided to skip the stupid ones, well the missions that looked stupid to him. Becoming an errand boy for lesser alchemists? Not a chance!

He deduced that the sect points were of half the value then spirit stones and sect points could be used for buying items in the exchange center. He searched for a mission that suited him. One of his harem members, Isabella, was a reading and writing maniac.

Because of her, Kai had read about many cliches and the mission he chose can be considered as one of the most clichést mission in the history of cliché missions.

The mission was –

Mission #38

Objective – Kill a group of bandits residing outside Ryazu city who are taking women from the city.

Note – The bandits total number is unknown and their leader is said to be at the 3rd stage of the hell spirit realm.

Reward – 200 sect points/400 spirit stones

He didn’t know where Ryazu city was but he just needed to take a look at the map and then he would be able to teleport himself there.

He submitted the mission and left the mission hall. He then went to Mia’s house and knocked on her door.

When Mia didn’t answer, for a split second, Kai thought that something might have happened to her. Then he remembered his own formations that he created and opened Mia’s doorknob.

Kai stepped inside and called Mia’s name.

“Mia, are you here?”

Mia suddenly came rushing from her bedroom and hugged him. He was taken aback by how quickly this escalated.

“You are finally here to see me.” Mia released and pouted. Kai chuckled lightly and patted her head.

“I was busy with too much drama. I am here to tell you that I am going outside and when I will come back, I will have an important thing with me that will help in recovering your memories.” At his words, Mia jumped in delight and once again, hugged him.

“Promise to cultivate with me when you come back.” Mia said in a somewhat pleading voice. He couldn’t blame her. Since being a mortal, his techniques were enough to make anyone beg him to cultivate with them.

“Yes, it will be my pleasure to do that. I will also teach you some fighting techniques. But for now, ditch the cultivation technique you are practicing and start using this one.” He suddenly said and touched Mia’s forehead.

Mia’s eyes rolled back for a minute and her eyes came back to focus after some time.

“T-This technique. It’s above imperial grade!” Mia trembled in fear as she saw the technique.

“It’s precisely a divine grade technique which comes after the imperial grade. Unfortunately, because of your low cultivation, I can’t give you anything above that.” Kai had the top-notch cultivation techniques for every single one of his harem members and he wanted to give one of them to Mia but unfortunately, it won’t do her any good and it might even destroy her cultivation.

Mia’s eyes were however shining. She had heard Kai say that he has techniques above the divine grade and he would have given them to her if she could use them.

Anyone else would have decided to keep the technique for himself or herself. But here, Kai was sharing such a powerful technique with her for free.

She didn’t care about the cultivation techniques since Kai’s yang qi was enough to increase her cultivation.

“But how did you acquire these techniques?” Mia was extremely curious about this and decided to ask him.

“If you stay with me, then you will experience many new things.” He chuckled and disappeared, leaving behind a pouting Mia.

***

Kai appeared inside his house as he had forgotten to clean it up. In fact, he was considered as a germ freak in the upper realms which was somewhat ironical as dual cultivating was anything but clean.

He snapped his fingers and the sheets got cleaned and the room was full of a vanilla-like fragrance.

He suddenly picked up something wet from the ground. It was Nezuko’s wet underwear and het juices were dripping from it.

“Did she leave without wearing one?” Kai wondered out loud.

He snapped his fingers and the underwear dried and he put it in his pendant to give it back to her a week later.

Kai gave the room a thorough glance and once again vanished.

***

Kai appeared at the entrance of Ryazu city. He entered the city and made his way towards the city hall.

He reached the city hall after a few minutes and showed the mission paper to the guy at the registration desk.

“You should only take this mission if you are sure of your abilities.” The guy unexpectedly warned Kai.

It turned out that many cultivators had tried to capture the bandits and had always been killed. But those were the male cultivators, the female cultivators cultivation was crippled and they were caught as slaves.

Kai just nodded and stepped out of the city hall. He decided that he would capture the bandits on the next day or after it since the mission didn’t have a time limit.

He was now about to live the day as a mortal. But unfortunately, that can’t happen.
