Elder Blood Witcher 583 Monster-Info-Dump

Reima, Priscilla, and Nerissa spend the next week exploring the Underground while Asgore and everyone else gets ready to move everyone and everything. Priscilla was particularly interested in some kind of T.V show shown to her by Alphys, Reima found it difficult tearing the half-breed away from it to eat or even sleep. Though this did allow him the opportunity to finally fluff her tail, and it was as glorious as he'd thought it'd be.

Priscilla didn't seem to mind as he raked his hands through her soft tail fur, though she did find it incredibly ticklish at the end of it. Regardless, Reima had found one of his favourite things to do in his past time.

Nerissa was also captivated by the cartoon, but not as much as the Half-breed due to her experience back in the HP universe. She admitted that having Reima stroke her rabbit form as she watched cartoons was her favourite thing to do... Truly, the Moe was too much with these girls, though it did help him relax in this unfamiliar environment.

The food the monsters make was also particularly strange, the stuff managing to heal soul injuries when ingested. Reima wasn't sure whether it was their method of preparing it, the ingredients or just the fact that a monster made it that caused this effect. He'd spent an afternoon learning how to "cook" with Undyne but didn't see anything strange, meaning that it was either the ingredients or the monsters themselves...

His discoveries with the monsters food also led him to ask Alphys, who explained that for Monsters, intention mattered more than actual action. If a monster didn't wish to harm someone, they simply weren't able to. Like some cosmic force prevented their strikes from even affecting their target unless they willed it to.

Based on his own knowledge of the soul this is naturally what would happen if your body was mostly comprised of your soul like the monsters were. This had another effect though, their "Affinity" to sorcery. To be clear, they could likely become stronger than Logan in Sorcery in a hundred years or so, making his trials in Lordran feel slightly worthless... Maybe the old man would be excited to train people similar to Reima? He didn't seem upset when Reima became more proficient in Sorceries then himself in an incredibly short time.

Most monsters didn't really have the physical forms that humans did, though now that they all had absorbed a portion from those 6 Lord Souls they could now function like humans. Reima had met quite a few of the citizens in his time in the Underground.

There was another kind of monster that differed from the other though, they were called "Boss Monsters" and included Asgore in their ranks. They also apparently didn't age unless they had a living child, making them functionally immortal until they wish to pa.s.s their responsibilities onto the next generation.

Reima found that most monsters were completely unique, however, their forms were influenced by their parents. There were monsters of every kind, fire monsters, snow monsters... Even ghost monsters. When Reima found out there was a Fairy monster he went to check if there was a "Pikachu" monster as well... Sadly he didn't find any.

Thus his time spent in the Underground was relatively peaceful, as the people responsible for saving the monster race he, Priscilla and Nerissa were constantly invited out to do stuff. The hobbies of the monsters were diverse to say the least, fis.h.i.+ng, sailing, boxing, flexing, singing, dancing... There wasn't really anything they didn't like to do, well, except for drinking. A fact he found out when he offered Asgore some Firewhisky... The Goat King almost charged into Snowden to look for someone called "Toriel", it was Sans who ended up telling him that she was likely dead, as the human who'd been killing their way through had gone through the ruins, a place Toriel had made her home.

Asgore was determined to look, regardless of what they may find. And, just as they feared, they found her dust scattered across the carpet after opening the ruins. A cold b.u.t.terscotch pie sitting in her residence making the King tear-up at the sight of it. Reima didn't see the old goat king for days after that incident, he didn't know, and didn't want to know how it felt to see your wife's corpse. Hopefully, he'd be able to avoid anything like that from happening.

Another thing that piqued Reima's interest was the technology of the monsters, arguably they were above modern-day humans due to them having actually built a functional robot, (Even if it's controlled by a ghost). He'd asked Alphys many questions about how the Core functioned, apparently, it converted geothermal energy into electricity which powered the Underground city. This would explain the lava and the need to transport huge blocks of ice down the river to cool it.

Reima was hoping that the monster's presence would expedite the expansion of technological innovation in his settlement, though he'd need to make sure none of what is created is spread to the outside world as he was sure they'd destroyed themselves if they ever discovered firearms, bombs or h.e.l.l even nuclear weaponry.

The end of the week signaled the end of Reima's vacation. All of the monsters were ready to depart and had most of their movable property with them, Asgore had informed them of the method of travel they'd be using and were mystified by Reima's ability to supposedly teleport thousands of monsters to another universe.

Reima looks over at the two thousand gathered monsters and rubs his chin, it's funny, he'd lost his temper with Solaire over under a hundred people... And now he was doing the same thing on an entirely different scale... He chuckles when he thinks about the Sun G.o.d's reaction when he returns.
