Iri's words drew laughter from the Ogres and Giants. In their eyes, mere 'humans' who were only food dared to claim to be their rulers, and even took such a long name.
Iri knew the Giants' naming customs, so it wasn't surprising that her long name was mocked, but she would definitely not let them laugh again in a moment.
"All of you, kneel!" Iri commanded with great authority. Of course, this wasn't just for show; she used Xiao Di's Ruling Spell. Simply put, it was a word of power!
Iri wanted to use this as a test. When Xiao Di taught her this, he also said... the Ruling Spell couldn't be used on people much higher level than oneself. So Iri wanted to see if she, being level 1, could use this convenient special skill to overpower these native creatures.
As soon as Iri finished speaking, all the Ogres and Giants knelt on both knees with a thud, all kneeling before Iri, including the Naga without legs. That old Naga directly prostrated herself on the ground.
It worked! Iri was quite pleased to see this.
"Hu-Human!! What did you do!" The green Mountain Giant named Gu seemed to realize that the 'human' before him was not as simple as food, and he didn't dare to call Iri 'food' anymore, but it was too late.
"Didn't do anything, did I? Shouldn't you kneel when you meet your ruler?" Iri tilted her head, revealing a very cute smile as she spoke.
Then Iri discovered a problem. Even though the Mountain Giant in front of her had knelt, due to its size, Iri still had to look up at him.
"Mere human..." Before the green Mountain Giant could finish speaking.
"An eyesore! Lie down!" Iri, a bit displeased, continued to use the Ruling Spell. All the Ogres and Mountain Giants prostrated themselves on the ground.
"Human!! Despicable human!!" After the leading green Mountain Giant was forcibly pressed to the ground by Iri's Ruling Spell, he seemed very unconvinced, constantly trying to struggle to get up. Iri, however, greatly enjoyed watching him struggle so hard.
"Hmm? Is this the attitude you should have towards your ruler?" Iri said with a smile. As for disobedient guys, beat them up first to make them obedient, then talk. This line was even in the original work, and it was indeed perfectly suited for this situation.
So, Iri walked forward, stood in front of the green Mountain Giant, raised her small foot, and directly stomped on the Mountain Giant's hand.
"Ow... Ugh!! Human!! Damn human!!!" The Mountain Giant cried out in pain, trying even harder to struggle up, but it was all useless...
As for why Iri could make this big guy hurt so much just by stepping on him once, first... Iri's physique itself was a collection of Ainz's and the Guardians' genes.
Although she was only level 1, her physical strength and power were no less than that of the Guardians known for their strength. During training, she could directly clash swords with Insect Lord Cocytus, but Iri herself, being careless, was simply not aware of this.
Then there was the fact that Iri was wearing high heels today, and finally, the spot she stepped on was precisely the connection between the fingernail and the finger. Of course, Iri deliberately aimed there. When Iri was still alive, when she was a true human, she had been stepped on like that, and Iri naturally remembered that pain deeply.
"Ho... You're quite spirited, aren't you? It seems the lesson I gave you isn't enough." Iri raised her foot, intending to stomp a few more times, only to find that the injured spot on the Mountain Giant's finger had already begun to regenerate.
Oh, right! This thing can regenerate. I remember in the original work, Ainz's father cut it a few times and it could regenerate back. So, in that case... just stepping on a finger is far from enough, isn't it?
Thinking of this, Iri turned around and scanned the empty cave. So, how should she deal with him?
She didn't bring any weapons. She couldn't just punch him, could she? How undignified! And she didn't want to hit such a dirty creature. Oh! She found something good!
Iri walked directly towards the Naga, scaring the old Naga into trembling all over. After all, Iri, who could make this whole group of arrogant Ogres and Giants lie down with just one sentence, was clearly not just any ordinary human.
"Old me... Old me..."
"It's not your turn yet. Could you please wait aside for a moment?" Iri revealed an incredibly sunny smile, then picked up a rather large stone in front of the old Naga.
Good... Weapon in hand. So, can I test the quality of this body? Iri thought so. Until now, Iri still didn't have a very accurate concept of how strong her body actually was.
Aura was also very curious what Iri intended to do with a stone. She just clasped her hands behind her head, watching Iri with great interest.
After getting the stone, Iri slowly walked towards the green Mountain Giant. Although the Mountain Giant was still unable to move under the effect of Iri's Ruling Spell, he was still struggling tenaciously.
"I heard that you Giants have strong regenerative abilities, right? So, if I cause this kind of injury, will it still be able to recover? I want to test it." Iri said with a smile, then raised the large stone with both hands and directly smashed it down onto the Mountain Giant's head.
With a crunch, blood splattered.
Hearing the crisp sound, his skull was probably shattered! However, Iri didn't notice these things, but rather...
"Ah ah ah!!! What in the world did you do, you bastard!!! This is the dress Albedo Mommy made for me with her own hands!" Iri said, looking frantically at her dress, which was splattered with the Mountain Giant's blood.
Because it was white, once blood got on it, it stood out as much as possible. Iri instantly got angry. Although Albedo was a pervert, her craftsmanship was indeed excellent. The clothes she sewed, in terms of style or taste, were very much to Iri's liking. Iri still quite liked the clothes Albedo prepared for her, but now they were stained with the blood of a native creature.
Iri, fueled by anger, ignored her dress. She raised the stone again, saw that the Mountain Giant's head had already begun to regenerate, smashed it again, then raised it again... and smashed it again, repeating several times. Her originally pure white dress was dyed red.
After smashing him several times in a row, the red glow that had appeared on Iri during her battle with the Vampire Bride began to emanate from her again. Aura seemed to notice Iri's abnormal state.
"Iri, Iri, that's enough, isn't it?" So she called out to Iri.
"Oh, hmm! This should be about enough, right? Wow... my dress!!!" Iri, coming back to her senses, only then noticed that her white dress was now 'red'.
"It's okay, isn't it? We can just have Albedo make you another one later, right? Albedo will definitely be very happy." Aura spread her hands somewhat helplessly.
"What a shame, I really liked this one. Ugh... It's all your fault!" Iri glared fiercely at the Mountain Giant, whose head had been smashed flat several times and was now regenerating again.
