I am a pill container in the mage world

Zagronan remained a judge for ten thousand years!

At first, he acted willfully, doing whatever he wanted. Then, he began opening the law books when Rachel pressured him.

Then, he started sentencing some people primarily according to the guidelines. Eventually, he began sentencing everyone exactly according to the laws.

He hated it from the bottom of his heart and found it unbearably dull, but he tolerated it and managed to hold his nose and do it.

Once he learned this skill, Rachel ended this educational experience and sent him back to Lana.

...

Zagronan returned to Progress World.

Rachel named it Progress because it's one of the places where she cultivates her high-ranking incarnations.

It has a total of 78 different sections, each operating under different rules.

Section 12 is the Badge Section, where everyone has to collect badges to live long.

Section 1 is another unique system where everyone has to invent pill formulas to earn points, with which they can buy lifespan. A skilled pill refiner can live forever, even if they fail to reach rank 10.

There are other interesting sections, such as Section 50, a big gladiator arena where one must participate and win to gain longevity.

In Section 61, everyone has to discover moral science; the better it is, the more points one can get to buy longevity.

Section 66 is a world mainly inhabited by demons, where new torture methods can earn contribution points.

Section 69 can't be discussed here.

Section 78 has million-year cycles. In each cycle, a limited number of people would be dropped there, and those people could not have children. At the end of the cycle, only one remains, receiving a massive quantity of contribution points.

Rachel had fun writing all of these codes.

This time, Zagronan moved to Section 15, where Lana was staying and where Zagronan had been before he went on his mission.

Section 15 is an exception to most other sections. While other sections have specific goals, such as improving understanding of mortal technology or finding new torture methods, Section 15 is just a big hotel.

Anyone can enter with enough contribution points, and it has everything one can desire. There are themes like hell, haven, cultivation, etc.

For big shots, they can rent entire sub-worlds.

Zagronan and Lana got one of the sub-worlds with a hell-earth theme.

It's a work in Progress; it's still not as good as the wild hell, but it's getting close to it slowly.

Zagronan looks forward to how much better it has gotten since he was absent.

...

Baby demons are everywhere one looks. Among them, some rank 0 demons were preying on baby demons and getting stronger bit by bit.

Zagronan smiled at this beautiful sight.

"This place is becoming like true hell!" he said.

"Yeah, the cruelty is getting more brutal," Rachel nodded.

Some baby demons came running at him while a rank 0 demon chased them. Zagronan smiled and snapped his fingers.

The baby demons exploded into a mist of blood.

The rank 0 demon chasing them was so scared that it ran at least twice as fast as it came.

"Aren't these baby demons beautiful?" Zagronan said lovingly while catching a few and eating them to get a taste.

"Yeah," Rachel replied, used to all of it.

"Delicious, too! But they don't give the sulfur taste of the hell in my world. Remind me to add a bit more sulfur," he said.

"Okay," Rachel said, though she had no intention of reminding him.

In a good mood, Zagronan moved toward the place where Lana was. His mental condition is excellent; he doesn't want to destroy anything or anyone despite his edges being in shambles.

To be able to hold on when his edges are in bad condition shows how much he has progressed.

...

Lana is at the peak of rank 9.

She invented the 'food taste' game and loved it. However, for her, that alone wasn't satisfying enough.

So, she created other 'programs,' such as 'body taste.'

She set up grand events where people competed for untold great rewards, and when they won, she would come and consume them. Eating these people was especially appealing to her. They expected a prize but met their demise in terror instead. What could be more delicious?

They were even more delicious than baby demons!

This sub-world is rented to her and her past partner, whom she no longer remembers, so she can do whatever she wants.

This round is more fun.

Lana took the shape of a beautiful elf princess and organized a contest about finding a husband or wife. Lana didn't want to exclude women, so she set the backstory as the princess being open to both men and women.

More men joined the contest, but many women also participated. Not because they all preferred the same sex but because of the benefits of being the wife of a princess.

Of course, some women loved the same sex, but they were in the minority. For men, on the other hand, most joined because of the princess's looks.

The appearance Lana took was beautiful from the overwhelming majority's perspective.

The contest is about to be finished, with 3 men and 1 woman as finalists.

The final match is about who would cook the best food for the princess. The games were not deadly; there hasn't been one casualty until now. Aside from those that Lana ate, that is.

She wants to maintain her reputation because the next time, fewer might join, or only bloodthirsty people might participate.

That would ruin the taste.

The four made their food and served it one by one. Lana tried them and smiled at the girl.

Her food was the best, and in other games, too, she was the best.

However, there is one problem.

The girl does not like women, so she doesn't expect as much as the three boys.

She joined for benefits, but the boys expect Lana to be with them at the end.

So, Lana turned his eyes and chose one of the boys.

...

The boy had a gray, beautiful eye and short hair, looking innocent at around 20 years old.

He was very talented and came near the top in every contest.

Lana smiled and closed in on him.

The boy's heartbeat went up. He knew what would happen next. It's not his first time, but how can other girls compare to the princess? He had never imagined anyone could be this perfect.

He looked at Lana's naked body and almost fainted. He couldn't wait at all.

Lana got close enough to give a kiss.

Then, the boy screamed!

He felt blood gushing from his lips.

"Whaar?" he tried to say, but without lips, it was difficult.

He tried to get away but felt immobilized.

He could only watch as the 'princess' moved and started eating him. Literally!

...

Lana came out in her original appearance, feeling refreshed.

The boy tasted excellent! It's a pity she can't save some for later. Because she enjoys the panicked and confused emotions, saving for later is impossible; the original taste will disappear by then.

She went back and saw a demon that looked familiar.

"Who were you again?" she thought.

"Ah, demon Envy#5," she nodded.

The man looked stunned and then said, "I'm Zag! You forgot me?" He wasn't really surprised.

He expected it to be like this.

"Zagronan? That bastard that went missing a long time ago?" she looked confused.

"Something is wrong with your memory!" Zagronan said, a bit worried.

He did expect her not to remember at first, but after this much mentioning, she should remember.

"Ah, yeah, what do you want? I'm having fun here, so if you want to say anything, don't say it, just leave!" she said.

"We were together! I helped you all the way, and I will not leave you," he said the most romantic thing he could think of.

Then, he jumped on Lana, and the two began to engage in activities.

...

Zagronan is thankful for his strong body; otherwise, he would have been seriously damaged.

You know, Lana bites, and bites hard.

The difference in rank, however, is too great. Zagronan was mindful of this, so he softened his parts so her teeth wouldn't break when she bit. It's a form of art to keep it hard enough not to be cut by her bites and not too hard that it breaks Lana's teeth. Zagronan excels in this art.

"Okay, now, let's make this place as close as a true hell as possible!" he said.

There are two parts to this sub-world. One is the human part, and the other is the demon part.

He has been to the demon part to check it and is satisfied. This human part, however, disgusts him. Still, Lana likes the human part, so Zag won't touch it.

He only focuses on the hell part.

"Hell needs demon kings! I should choose from among talented demons a few demon kings!" he said.

"I should set up a system where people who do bad things in life would be sent to hell. This way, hell's population would grow much faster."

"What an original idea," said Rachel.

Zagronan continued, "As for people who do good deeds ... let's send them to hell, too."

"Lana would not be against it. We can say good people would be sent to heaven, and then when they die, we send them to hell as worms! It would be funny! I'm sure she likes the idea." He started to plan.

...

An explosive announcement came!

It was whispered in everyone's mind that after death, good people would go to some place where they would enjoy for eternity, while bad people would be sent to where they would suffer for eternity.

As for what is good and what is bad… The list was huge, as much as a few big books, with an astonishing amount of details.

Many things were so ridiculous that normally, one would think of them as a joke.

Like: walking into a neighbor's house who recently returned from a trip with the left leg first is a good deed, while walking with the right is a bad deed.

Scratching the head shortly after bathing with the index finger of the right hand is a good deed, while with any other finger, it is a bad deed.

Excruciating details about everything, nonsense instructions that anybody with a clear mind will know is a joke.

It was a joke that Lana and Zagronan laughed when they secretly watched people actually doing them.

There was nothing close to logic behind any of the instructions.

But, mortals heard about this voice in their minds. This is a world where most mortals never saw anything supernatural. So, most believed and started reading the books carefully and started following them.

The books would just appear if anyone wants to read them.

...

Joe had closely followed the instruction manual for nearly one hundred years.

He finally died!

He felt the world spinning, then saw the smiling faces of a man and a woman! The woman was huge, a few meters tall, and the man had horns!

"Demons?" he recalled from the book's instructions.

In the book, demons were considered holy and worthy of respect.

He tried to bow but felt like he had no head.

He looked around and felt horror!

He looked white and long, like a snake, or... a worm?!

The woman laughed, picked him up, and threw him into her mouth. He screamed, but nobody heard him.

...

Lana chewed and enjoyed!

"Zag, you were right; this is very fun! They are delicious too!" she said.

Zagronan smiled from the bottom of his heart. He is happy to make Lana, his love, happy!
