[Marley recognized Kerri and had asked why you had her around. I explained about your system, but that was when she explained their reproduction. There are other races like them in the world they are from, and I think they are monsters that were imagined from different games and legends without understanding the entire concept. There will be other races like this along the way.]

This was disturbing, but it kind of made sense.

I still didn’t like it, but it might be better if they stayed on the island. I would fix all of this one day, but that day was still a long way off.

’Fine, but I still want to stop by and tell them I am leaving since I said I would,’ I told Harold as I reached the bottom of the crater, heading to the small brick town of Craterville.

Harold was silent after that, and I walked in silence, thinking about what this meant for Kerri in the future. I didn’t plan on knocking every girl up because I couldn’t have a bunch of kids and save the world, but still.

This cut off any possibilities for Kerri going forwards, but who knew what my system would do. There was also the next life and world I would have to conquer, so there was no point in getting disappointed in things just yet.

I was close to the town now, but I could feel something watching me. It was coming from the Fire Lake, but I wasn’t sure what it was.

I tried looking on my map, and there was something there, but it only showed up as a gray dot. Whatever it was, it was staying out of sight, but there was nothing on this island that could challenge me now.

I ignored whatever was watching me as I walked into the town. The place looked much more torn up since the last time that I saw the place, and there was no one in sight.

Not seeing anyone was expected, but the extra damage and entirely destroyed buildings were new. Whatever was in that lake did not seem to be as picky as the girls, which made my gears grind.

How was I just supposed to leave these creatures here? It was like leaving out free food for any passing monster that wanted to come to terrorize these creatures.

[Zack, you can’t save them.]

’Do you know that? Do you know everything that my system can do?’

[Well, no, but…]

’Then I will be taking them with me until I know that I can’t do anything about it. I can’t leave them here, and I won’t!’

I picked up my pace and strode over to the town hall, where I had found the others last time. I would be damned if I did any less, and that just wasn’t the type of person I was.

Once I was ten feet from the hall, I sucked in a deep breath and then bellowed out, "EVERYONE, COME OUTSIDE, NOW! THE DEMON LORD OF THE ISLAND COMMANDS YOU!"

To my surprise, doors around me flew open with cheers and a much smaller group of orange and red Gogs. This was a lot worse than I had expected, but it was the reason that I couldn’t leave them.

"KAZZ!" Voices cried up to me as everyone crowded around me.

There were a lot fewer orange Gogs now and very few small ones. Whatever was in the lake was doing a number on them, and they didn’t seem to be able to keep reproducing.

"What happened? Why are there so few of you now?" I asked.

"The new monster has been dragging people into the lake to kill them! We have no way to get them back or their Death Blood!" A red female Gog cried out, but I didn’t recognize her.

"Well, I am sorry it took me so long to get back, but now it is time for you all to come with me. I will keep you safe the best I can, so get everyone together, and we will get going," I told the group, and the small burning-eyed creatures cheered, but none of them went to get the others.

"We are ready to go. This is all that is left; the Salamander killed the rest," another woman told me as I looked around, making me sigh, putting a hand to cover my face.

I was frustrated because I could have prevented this if I had taken them before. There was no point in crying over spilled milk, but it was a lesson for the future.

Never put off what can be done today for tomorrow. I couldn’t have predicted this, but I knew something like this could happen.

"Okay. Can you all make it up the side of the crater?" I asked, and the group nodded.

Some of them looked a bit daunted by it, but that was fine. I could try out my new Pact and give them a lift to the beach.

"Don’t worry, I just thought of an idea. Just get everyone over by the side of the crater. I am going to give a little payback for the trouble you have endured," I told the group, and the few males that were left cheered, but the red females exchanged worried looks.

"Are you sure, Mr. Kazz? This monster is much worse than the women!" A female called up to me, but I just grinned and motioned to the side of the crater.

"The name is Zack now, and don’t you worry about me. Just get everyone ready," I told everyone, and they all nodded and started to make their way to where I had directed.

I turned back where I could feel the eyes on me and started to walk. The sun was almost at its peak, and I was starting to get hungry.

The lava ahead of me started to move and slowly bulged up as a massive lizard made of fire crawled out of the lava. At six feet tall and about thirty long, this monster would have been pretty daunting.

Now I was the monster.
