108 Demon Overlord of Lus (2/2)
Lastly, the Albino Tarantulas were roasted until they became red-colored, inside of their legs they had tasty and tender meat, which tasted like crab and shrimp, with a small bitterness.

Hmm, I gained quite a lot of skills, I guess it must be because the monsters have gotten stronger. And because I ate a bunch of different species.
After having a quick rest, we through the forest. As we kept advancing, the temperatures became lower, and those without [Ice Resistance] like the humans had to put on warmer clothes.
Even if they are my slaves, humans cannot get skills from the monsters they devour. It seems that my blessing share has its limitation to only other monsters or demi-humans.
However, to compensate this, they have the natural talent of every human alongside the advanced class system which comes with more bonuses and even free techniques and skills without the need of using SP.
The temperatures became colder because we approached the Ice Shrine Dungeon, which was affecting the surrounding forest.
As we proceeded, the trees became white and some even had crystalline ice fruits, however, there were still some \”normal\” trees that just got frozen. As we left footprints through the ice, we were quickly surrounded by a big family of Ice Horn Bears, a species of [Giant] type bears with towering bodies surpassing the 12 meters, their fur was as white as snow and they hold a giant ice horn on their foreheads.
They underestimated our strength as I was concealing our auras. These beasts were extremely strong, far surpassing the Shadow Moon Bear Wolf, each one being of probably Mid Kaiser level.
However, they were not pure strength as they could generate a barrage of Ice Spikes to attack from a distance, also, their eyes had the power to instantly freeze weaker beings.
Due to this, Charlotte ended up frozen instantly. Thankfully, I healed her in time using my [Lovely Care: All Ailment Cure]. She was still quite tired of it so I left her resting on the floating carriage with one of my flesh and slime minions which quickly feed her hot soup and tea to warm her body.
When I descended, all the bears were already killed by Lilith, Evan, and my children. Lilith had entered on a rage mode after seeing Charlotte frozen, who was her dear friend. The same was for Evan who saw Lilith as a big sister.

My wives were mostly watching the massacred on the side. When I gathered all the meat, we proceeded through the Icy Forest biome.
As we reached the middle of the forest, we encountered several Snow Golems and Ice Golems. Snow Golems were formless and could change their bodies to whatever they wanted, while the Ice Golems were more solid monsters, having humanoid and sturdy figures, with two pale blue flames as eyes.
Just like every golem, they hold a core in the middle of their bodies which is their \”true body\”, after shattering it, their bodies would quickly become inert. The only part of these monsters that could be eaten was their cores. The rest was pure and plain ice and snow.
[You gained 1138600 EXP] [The rest of your family gained tons of EXP]
[LEVEL 005/250 EXP 3633126/5000000]
Because no one except me would eat their cores, I snacked on them while looking for more prey. Eating the cores was like eating a tasteless candy.

There were Ice Deers on the proximity, these monsters resembled common deers, however, their bodies were giant, nearing 7 meters each one. Its fur was pure white and their antlers were spiky and sharp, being made of ice.
These furious beasts rushed at us with their strong horn attacks and powerful Ice Magic, there was an Emperor that even managed to enclose us on a [Ice Zone], thinking that it could easily catch us. However, this just made everything easier, as we killed them without any place for them to hide or run. The Emperor lamented his choice as it lost his head.

When we reached the end of the biome, it was already getting late so we ascended towards the floating carriage and had a nice dinner using Ice Bear and Ice Deer meat. Both of these types of meats were delicious and juicy. I didn't gain any skills from these monsters, but their souls were delicious. However, the blood wasn't anything special.
On the other side, I haven't encountered [Fragmented Sins] since the crab cave, so probably I need to kill even stronger monsters, probably of a higher tier.
Wanting to level up more, I left my family sleeping as I descended the forest and massacred countless beasts. I encountered an Ice Bear Emperor and Empress which did give me some skills.

Aside from this, I also entered the Ice Shrine and while using [Stealth] and [Camouflage] and killed eleven Wendigos and eight Yuki-onnas. Just as I can make my blood be a delicious elixir, I can also change it into the deadliest of poisons, that can even corrode spiritual beings. They were easily killed using my magic threads coated with my deadly blood. There wasn't any problem on their population as they were more than two hundred, so I don't think they will be missed.

[Spirit Slayer]
[Enemy of the Spirit Kind]
The Wendigos were ghosts that resembled gigantic black beasts with demonic horns and red eyes. However, this is no more than a facade, as their real \”bodies\” are inside of them. They resemble small humanoids with pale white skin and several ice horns on their heads. I ended up catching five women, four adult men and two young boys, I didn't have any remorse on this as I feasted on my prey, without leaving any trace.
Yuki-onnas just like on Japanese folklore are beautiful woman that control ice. In this world, they are humanoid semi-corporeal spirits, which possess incredible beauty. Their skin is smooth and white and their eyes resemble beautiful sapphires, alongside long and silky white hair. Most of them wear organic armor kimonos.
Wendigo's meat was tender and sweet, they didn't possess or a soul, as they semi-corporeal bodies were their souls and flesh at the same time. Its taste was almost divine as I couldn't stop devouring their flesh. I even ate the beast-like pelt they use to hide themselves.
Yuki-onnas meat is also tender and has hints of fruits on their flavor, they had a strong magic, which enhanced its healing properties. Every time I bit on their flesh; I quickly recovered all my MP in mere seconds. This flesh could be used as ingredients for making MP Potions.

After such a delicious meal, I wanted to hunt more, but they are more precious as Spirit Stone factories.
Being finally satisfied with these skills, I quickly went back to the floating carriage and slept peacefully.
