Lexy dragged her feet behind the group of bandits that was now her My Pantsu Force, her tail sagged, and her ears flopped down. She was not really feeling up to searching the dungeon anymore. Her cool and awesome name was ruined, and now this army that was supposed to be under her command only cared about killing anything near her. The only good side effect was for every kill she got experience. And since Megalim was in her team, she was also gaining experience. But this was still too much for her to handle.

“Lexy?” Megalim held Lexy’s hand, slowly walking at her side. She knew Lexy was really depressed right now. 

“Limlim…” Lexy lower lip pouted as she turned and looked at Megalim. “Why do they want to protect my panties!? Why my panties!? They don’t need protection! Nyaaaa!”

Lexy fell to her knees and began crying. She hated this! She did not understand why all the strange things kept happening to her! Megalim sighed and knelt down next to Lexy and pulled her into a hug before she began scratching her ears. She knew Lexy was not happy. She always had things happen that were against the norm, and now she was finally breaking down.

It was at that moment that a message popped up in guild chat: “What happened to my little sister!?”

Megalim was stunned to see a message from Olivia. She did not understand how Olivia even knew something was wrong! “Olivia… How?”

“My little sister is sad radar went off.” Olivia stated matter-of-factly. In truth, she just felt something might be wrong with Lexy as she had not heard anything from her since they entered the dungeon.

“I see… Well, it is like this.” Megalim went on to explain things. Olivia was not surprised about any of what Megalim said. When it came to Lexy, one had to expect the unexpected. She was a girl who beat an endgame boss at a meager level 2, after all.

“Hmm… It’s a good thing for Lexy, though. Although they may seem weird and her army name is very strange, the good thing is that she can send them out to farm for her while still exploring other regions, and if what you said is true that she gets experience from their kills, then it is worth the hassle. But to think my dear little sister would be turning into a demon queen. Ahahaaha! My World Domination guild is home to the game's only demon queen!” Olivia, who was currently fighting people from onyx over another world boss, stopped what she was doing to stand there to put her hands on her hips and let out a joyful laugh. The members of Onyx also all stopped attacking, feeling confused as to what was going on, but that right there was their fatal mistake as it gave Olivia an opening to kill them all with her chains.

“Well, she is feeling slightly depressed over it all. Do you want to talk to her?” Megalim asked. She wondered if maybe Olivia could help her.

“No, I think you can handle it better than me since you are there. Just tell her that her sister is waiting for her to finish the dungeon and tell her the stories of her adventures. I got to go! Onyx seems to be trying to form a strike force against me. Hahahaha! They seemed to love respawn!” Olivia stopped sending messages after that as she began running away from the three hundred or so Onyx members. “Damn sword witch, get back here!”

Megalim sighed and leaned her head down, and kissed the top of Lexy’s head. “Lexy, Olivia, your sister said she is waiting for you to finish the dungeon and tell her about your adventures.”

“Big Sister said that?” Lexy raised her head, her big watery eyes looking up at Megalim.

“Yep, she also said that having the army is a good thing and will help you a lot. You just need to use them to your advantage. Since you do not need them to protect you, why not send them all out on missions so you can not only get experience but also resources you will need for crafting.” Megalim added the last part in, even though Olivia did not directly say this.

“Sniff… Big Sister is right! I will set up a bunch of missions now!” and so all one hundred, and fifty-three members of Lexy’s army were suddenly teleported out of the dungeon to go farm for materials based on their level range and abilities. In her mission, she stated that they could only go to areas they could live in. After all, while they were strange for wanting to protect her panties, they were still members of her army. She did not want them dying on her. There was just one exception to this.

“I reject! My Queen, as I am the strongest, I should stay by your side and protect your panties!” The bandit boss said righteously.  Lexy looked at her system window and saw a big fat red box around the bandit boss. She clicked on the details, which read: “Unable to assign missions.”

Reading this and then looking back at the bandit boss who kept making speeches about her panties, she once again dropped to her knees and began crying. “Huh!? My Queen!? What is wrong!? Did someone try to peek at your panties!? How dare they! Where are they!? This General of the My Pantsu Force will kill anyone for trying to sneak a peek at my Queen’s panties.”

The more he said, the more Lexy cried, and standing at the side holding her head was Megalim. She really wished she could beat this damn idiot up, but sadly, he was a boss mob and much stronger than herself. All she could do was yell at him. “Will you shut up already? The more you talk, the more you are making my Lexy cry!”

“Ah!? Damn me!? How could I make my own Queen cry!? I deserve death! But if I die, who will protect my Queen’s panties!? Is this some kind of evil trial!? Is my Queen testing my resolve to protect her most cherished article of clothing!? That must be it!” The bandit boss turned and looked at the crying Lexy and stepped forward, kneeling down in front of her. “Do not worry, my Queen, I will always protect your panties in this life and any other.”

“Nya? Pantsu? Nyaaaaa!”  Lexy burst out crying once more. 

Megalim sighed and held Lexy close.
