Speaking of the demons, there were 60. 20 were incubi, 20 were the oni, and the others I did not see at the exams. They were spider demons. They were all dark skinned and could shoot webbing from their six arms. Even with the oni, there was more to see. He divided the 20 of them into 5 groups that would specialize in different things. The "samurai" class were bodyguards that followed Charlie around. In his words, "Not only do they make me look badass, but they are also there to prevent me from getting my hands too dirty. People who engage with me in combat will see I'm level 999. That is a big give away. "Ninja" oni were general ninja that focused on both hand to hand combat and using kunai, but also stealth. The "berserker" class were hyper focused shinobi assault troops that went in and slaughtered using not only shuriken and kunai but claws as well. They were fast and hit the enemy hard. The "rogue" class were hyper focused kunoichi assassins. Unseen until it was too late, they would lie, poison and fuck their way to victory. The final class of oni were the "gunners".
These troops never left the village. "Only the highest-ranking samurai have guns. And those are single fire rifles that need to be reloaded after every shot. Mine all have 2 handguns each with 30 round magazines." Charlie boasted. They were the elite guards. For a village of this size, you actually only need about 5 to patrol all of it. They would only see combat in an emergency where we were attacked by a massively overwhelming force. Like a big lord's army. Other than the genin exam where they blew away the NPC competition to become official ninja, no one would know that they existed. That was cool. The demons that were at the chunin exams were dismissed and they scampered off to tell all their friends. We went to the meeting hall, and he put the stamp of the clan on the head band. It was a big peach that looked like a butt. I rolled my eyes. I was now part of the clan. I asked "Now what?" He smiled. "This whole region has become nearly abandoned because of the famine. We need to get all of the power we can and take surrounding villages. After we take 5, I can become a lord."
