Building a Monster Nation From Zero in Another World

"In that case, just have them be mindful."

"Maintain their forms in the village to avoid causing damage."

"It has already been arranged."

These matters didn't require Rin's concern. Snow Empress had already taken care of them.

Rin actually had little to say. Anything he could think of, Snow Empress and Violet surely could too.

He didn't need to worry about management.

What he truly needed to consider was how to use this vast amount of magicules.

"Snow Empress, notify everyone. I'm going to name them."

Out of 3 million magicules, excluding the 100,000 to maintain Violet and 990,000 for Rin's own strength, the remaining 2 million was purely surplus.

Without breaking through to S-rank and awakening as a True Demon Lord, the magicules could not undergo a qualitative change.

Especially this portion of magicules. If it wasn't spent quickly, Violet's daily magicules recovery would be impossible.

Failure to recover meant waste, a losing endeavor.

Even with 3 million magicules, Rin still couldn't forget the 200,000 magicules he received every half month.

'Invest! I must invest heavily!!'

2 million magicules, when used for naming, was equivalent to 4 million.

Once again, thanks to Violet's 50% discount, Rin's assets effectively doubled.

Snow Empress left, leaving only Shuna to accompany Rin.

As for Violet, she preferred to stay in Rin's soul, quietly observing everything around her.

Additionally, Violet would connect with the World Core from time to time.

She needed to investigate intelligence on the Cardinal World and monitor any forces that might threaten Rin.

"Rin-sama, what are you planning to do?"

Shuna helped Rin get dressed, then asked the question on her mind.

"Naming."

"Huh?"

Shuna was startled, then reacted, immediately showing an incredulous expression. "You, are you perhaps going to...?"

"I plan to make everyone a named monster."

"This!!"

Shuna was incredibly shocked by Rin's decision. "But if you do that, it will consume a lot of your magicules, then..."

"Don't worry, Shuna."

Rin lightly patted the girl's head and said calmly, "My Leader has evolved into Convergence and can add a monster race to become my familiar."

"And what I've chosen is the Ogre."

Once the Ogre was chosen as a familiar, Rin could obtain 30% of the magicules from the Ogres, excluding his existing familiars like Shuna and Benimaru.

Compared to the previous 15%, it directly doubled.

"However, to develop the Ogre into a familiar, they must first become namers."

This was crucial, and it was also why Rin intended to name everyone.

"What about the Goblin?"

"The interesting part is right here."

Rin smiled. "The Goblin is a monster race that evolved from fire spirits after they degenerated into fairies."

"Coincidentally, so is the Ogre Clan."

"In other words, the Goblin and the Ogre Clan can actually be considered the same race."

"Ah, this..."

Shuna wanted to say that the Goblin couldn't possibly be a distant relative of the Ogre Clan.

But this was Rin's judgment, so it must be correct.

"Of course, if it were just the Goblin, my Convergence wouldn't be able to integrate them with the Ogre Clan into one race."

"But!"

Rin said, "The Hobgoblin is different."

Hobgoblin are C-rank monsters, while the Ogre Clan are B-rank.

There was exactly one rank difference.

In the original work, Gobwa evolved from the weakest Goblin into a Gobulina (female Hobgoblin), then a member of the Ogre Clan, then a Kijin.

This clearly illustrated one point: there was a clear evolutionary path from Goblin to Ogre.

Rin had asked Violet, and she had given an affirmative answer.

"As long as all Goblin evolve into Hobgoblin."

"I can incorporate this branch into the Ogre race," Rin said. "Then, they will all become my familiars!"

Rin had 3 familiar slots.

The Ogre was Rin's strongest follower at the moment.

Deepening their relationship with him would only bring benefits, no drawbacks.

"So, this time you're naming them, not only won't you lose out, but you might even make a huge profit?"

Shuna and other familiars were Rin's most trusted confidantes, the kind who would never betray him.

However, secrets like the Convergence's ability to gain magicules, Shuna would not reveal to others.

This wasn't deception, but rather the unpredictability of a monarch's grace and might.

"The Goblin race has over 8,000 members. Calculating at an average of 300 magicules, they would need at least 2,700 magicules to evolve into C-rank Hobgoblin."

Shuna: "This is not a small sum."

8000 x 2700, a total of 21.6 million magicules.

Even with Violet's 50% discount, it was still a massive expenditure of 10.8 million magicules.

This was an extraordinary amount, one that Rin simply couldn't afford.

But!

Rin could first name the Ogre Clan.

"If we are named first, there are currently about 250 members of the Ogre Clan who have not yet received names."

250 people, with an average of 6,000 magicules.

To evolve, they would need 4,000 magicules, which would be 1 million.

After halving, it would only require 500,000.

This wasn't much. Rin could fully afford it all at once.

Then, the 270 Ogres with over 10,000 magicules, because they were familiars, could provide Rin with 30% of their magicules.

This would amount to 8.1 million magicules.

Adding the 1.5 million Rin already had, that would be 9.6 million.

9.6 million magicules, when used for naming, could be considered double, so 0.4 would be 19.2 million.

Rin didn't need to name all 8,000 Goblin at once.

He could completely choose to name 4,000 Goblin first, and then, after they became Hobgoblin, incorporate them into the familiar system.

"Accurate magicules expenditure and income have been calculated."

Violet's voice echoed in Rin and Shuna's minds. "Naming the Ogre consumes 500,000 true magicules and can yield 8.1 million true magicules."

"Naming the Goblin requires an expenditure of 10.8 million true magicules and can yield 7.2 million true magicules."

"After calculation, the final net magicules gain is 4 million!"

...

A net income of 4 million magicules, plus Rin's existing 3 million, would make it 7 million.

Rin's total magicules not only didn't decrease but more than doubled.
