Taming my Monster Girl Harem from Scratch



I stared at the ring on my fingers and began to wonder how hard it would be to make one. As if seeing through my doubt, Goddess Zeta quickly shook her head before adding.

"No, the ring itself is easy to make. The problem is that it's hard to enchant spatial coordinates into it."

She threw the ten client rings on top of the table, making them spin around randomly.

"Also, it's hard to create a method to convert other types of energy into space energy as the main power source."

I listened to her explanation as I carefully scrutinized the rings she had just thrown. To my eyes, I could see the pristine pattern she made with the highest efficiency embedded into it using a fine thread of energy.

"This... I can do this much enchantment, I guess?"

I muttered absentmindedly. Goddess Zeta's eyebrows twitched upon hearing my words, as if she were feeling irked that a low-level brat like me would dare to say, "I could also do that!"

Although I said I could do it, I need to try first to be certain.

I took out a small piece of iron ore from my storage ring, then quickly used a combination of fire and space energy to mold a small fragment of it into a similar-shaped ring.

"""...!"""

For some reason, after that, almost everyone in the room was looking at me as if they had seen a ghost. I only gave them a perfunctory glance before taking a piece of crystal from my inventory. I didn't really have a crystal available, so I just took out a random empty potion bottle and plucked a small part of it.

Using the same technique, I morphed the piece of glass into a well-shaped gem, giving it around 48 facets and allowing it to shine bright like a diamond.

After making it to be around the same size as the black and unknown crystal that Goddess Zeta used, I embedded it into the previous ring that I made. After doing so, I inspected the ring for any imperfections before nodding my head in approval.

"Now, let me try engraving..."

Precise energy control is something that I am extremely proud of. Although my memory of it is incomplete, I had seemingly spent hundreds of years honing it to the limit.

I looked over at the ten client rings and noticed that they all had the same engraved pattern. In other words, I just need to copy that, and it's done. The size was a challenge, though, as it was as hard as writing your name into a grain of rice with a regular-sized chisel.

After about three trials, I got the hang of it and completed the first one.

"Done!"

I leaned back on my chair and released a satisfied sigh. Ember, who was beside me before I noticed, wiped away the beads of sweat all over my face.

"Let me see that!"

Goddess Zeta shouted in a miffed tone as she waved her fingers, pulling the ring from in front of me towards her.

When the ring I made was finally in front of her, she looked at it with extreme scrutiny before having her eyes widen in surprise.

"It's properly working?!"

She shouted with both doubt and amazement. She then stared at me with a complicated expression, unable to believe what I just did.I think you should take a look at

Zeshion clapped his hands to dissolve the weird aura in the air.

"That was an amazing display, Will. Did you learn the dwarves' crafting techniques or something? I haven't seen that method of using skills to quickly manufacture objects!"

With his amazed tone, the awkward atmosphere quickly dissolved. I smiled in response to his query but gently shook my head.

"No, I didn't learn their techniques. It's... something I learned from somewhere else."

I really can't say that I just copied what I recalled from the many novels and anime I indulged in. Although the three girls, Ember, Fang, and Igni, seemed to realize the truth, they stayed quiet.

Although I trust God Zeshion, I'm not sure what would happen if I told him about my past memories. 8 out of 10, he'll just laugh it off as a joke, I guess. Of the remaining 2 possibilities, one would be that he'll act the same, but the other, I'd rather not imagine.

Zeshion nodded his head in understanding, probably thinking that the skill I used was some sort of secret skill that I wasn't allowed to divulge. At least, to me, that's what the smug smile on his face was saying.

"Anyway, with this, how much can we shorten the time needed to give everyone a ring?"

I asked right away, wanting to hear a good number to soothe my soul. Zeshion, not even needing to calculate, answered almost immediately.

"Half. It'll take 5 days if you and Zeta work together."

Goddess Zeta snorted in dissatisfaction, however.

"10 days is the estimate while I'm holding back. If I put my full attention to it, then I can finish it all in three days!"

Three days?! That's 72 hours, meaning she would create one ring every 25 seconds! Alone, I can't match that speed... But who said I don't have any helpers?

"Ember, can you make a copy of the ring I crafted earlier?"

I asked as I glanced to the side, where Ember was standing idly.

"I can, Master."

Without missing a beat, Ember answered. I smiled after hearing her immediate and confident reply.

"How many can you make in a minute?"

"With enough materials, I can make dozens of them in a minute."

"That's more than enough."

If I just focused on engraving the pattern, then I'd need a couple of seconds at most. Given the time to pick up and drop off the items, I'd need about 5 seconds to finish a piece. That's about a dozen rings per minute.

"If Ember and I joined forces, we could finish it in half a day."

I confidently declared.
