Leveling Up with My Adorable Monster Girl Harem!

Chapter 164: The Nine-Tailed Star

Leon lodged his divine sword before himself, activating two new skills.

Those skills were named after his beloveds, and each brought out a new kind of zone.

On his left, Leon's Celes' Zone shrouded the hidden chamber in darkness. The red moon suddenly shone brightly in that zone as though a hidden eye had opened. It didn't fight against the darkness, as that dark element remained untouched.

Instead, these two elements complemented each other — it became quite cold there.

On his right, Leon's Louise's Zone summoned countless burning stars. Those stars were similar to lanterns in Louise's room, shining blindly. The heat rose so much that the ground melted!

[Your divine weapons, scarves each get additional bonuses in their respective zones.]

[Leon Blade(Ender) Lv. 105 HP: 600 000/600 000 MP: 520 000/520 000]

"This one will level up so much I can't wait to get rid of him!" Leon smiled widely and unfolded his scarves.

His orange-red scarf blended in Louise's zone while the red-black leveraged Celes' zone. Leon already felt much more connection with his beloveds and that he would be able to seamlessly combine his skills with theirs. His women were the same, feeling a significant boost strengthening their stats.

"A power to affect the world! What are you?!" The dwarf in the mecha exclaimed, bemused and frightened.

He used his mecha skills to assault Leon. His three mecha tails went after Leon, Louise, and Celes.

And while Leon turned around and told Alexandra to be on stand-by, Louise and Celes enjoyed their new power-up with their beloved by their side. In Celes' darkness, the coldness went lower than Absolute Zero, and she simply froze the tail going after her.

Louise's stars warmed up and melted the tail, rendering the dwarf useless.

Leon turned around and saw the mecha tail pretty close to his face. He instantly lifted his hand, used his two scarves to wound around the tail, then went for his favorite combination.

"Amen."

Two different elements oozed out of his weapons, bringing forth the chain explosion that devoured the tail.

[You have erased the soul of Princess Medusa.]

"So you had souls in those tails… And it belonged to a princess? You are really shrewd, dwarves." Leon commented aloud while the dwarf felt an unimaginable fear cleaving his heart.

Leon locked his narrowed eyes on the mecha, then said his plan aloud. "I'll cause another chain reaction, and you will finish the mecha, Celes. When the dwarf gets exposed, Louise will defeat him. We need this one alive."

His beloveds nodded.

Leon utterly ignored the mecha's weapons. His scarves were more nimble and flexible than snakes, as though fishes in the water, for Leon's divine sword's zones were too powerful of an ability. He quickly swathed them around the mecha's torso, then stuffed more than fifty percent of his mana.

The huge explosions scraped the highly defensive mecha, toppling him backward.

And then, the vast bat cast its shadow on the mecha's fallen torso. He dropped like a star and destroyed the cockpit, exposing the short man inside.

Then, the real star moved, and Louise flew to the skies, her curves and fox features heating up. She controlled her mana and strength and fell onto the dwarf.

"Ughhh!" The man screamed into oblivion.

But while his chest hurt, as the fox woman slammed her palm against him, he didn't feel like his life was in danger. Yes, he would soon lose his freedom, but it was much better than dying. He at least would see the following events of The Death Lord's mayhem and more.

The dwarf closed his eyes.

Leon and Celes confirmed that the man lost consciousness and was rendered useless.

"I'll carry him… But for now, we need to get the flames." Leon looked at his adorable fox, whose face was a mixture of nerves and excitement.

She utterly believed that her other selves were in love with Leon, but she didn't know what actually would happen.

Louise wanted to learn more about herself… And that pushed her to get her race's flames back. She found a small metal box hidden at the end of the hall.

Louise took it into her hands and opened it.

In an instant, her heart shivered, and she felt someone's else hand grasping those flames. Of course, nothing came out of Louise, but she felt like she hadn't rescued those flames. Instead, it was as though someone else snatched them…

The beautiful orange flames disappeared as though they had never existed.

And then, within Louise's heart, the chains snapped.

The last chains that held the memories of Louise's past were known as The Nine-Tailed Star.

Louise lost consciousness and dropped onto the ground.

"I've seen everything, Amaterasu." The Nine-Tailed Star materialized in Louise's heart.

She didn't look different than Louise. She was a short woman with nine tails and cold eyes. Those cold eyes were much different from Louise, as much more hatred brimmed those hues. She was a little different from her past self, though. That was because her hair was utterly pink.

Amaterasu smirked. "You've fallen in love as well."

"And why do you think my hair color changed? It's because I don't want any connection to you, Amaterasu! I hate you. I hate you from the bottom of my heart. Well, you know that." The Nine-Tailed Star put her hand on her waist and loftily hovered her eyes on the legendary existence. "Even though you had come out to save me at the very end of my life, I still fucking hate you."

Amaterasu had used her strength to save herself and Louise from The Human Emperor. That was exactly why Louise saw herself having longer arms and body — that was simply Amaterasu's past force taking over her.

"You must be seething inside. I very well know you… That's when I saw Leon, I knew I couldn't miss that chance to tell him my feelings. Otherwise, you would have made him hate me instead. Now that you saw everything, you must be set on killing me… The thing is, you can't kill me, Louise." Amaterasu remained composed. "And it's the first time we can look at each other and talk like that… How about we look to the past and reach a truce? Leon wants us both."

"He wants you because you have charmed him!" The Nine-Tailed Star angrily spat.

"I think he just likes fox girls. Our race is the best when it comes to pleasure and fluffiness… That's why we should team up and keep him away from other foxes… I also saw a wolf girl taking a liking to him. We don't want any wolves in our family, right?" Amaterasu continued in a sweet but also sharp tone.

"He only needs one fox woman." The Nine-Tailed Star extended her hand toward the chained heart and snapped all chains at once, taking the memories.

But since she was such an exalted existence, she had all memories intact. Instead, she simply forced Louise to remember all, including the last moments of her life.

She did that in proper order, knowing as well that the wrong consequence of events could lead to many problems.

"And while she remembers her past, I'll erase you." The Nine-Tailed Star jumped high. She froze in the air and started summoning a vast ball of flames below her feet.

That was her star as nine tails protruded from that ball of flames.

"You hate me because everyone blamed you for failing to reach the Amaterasu Seat. The potential figures, like The Dragon, learned about you being a reincarnation of me. Most of them, including our race, put the whole blame on you. All because you couldn't light up the sun. The moon was better… Tsuyukomi treated her people better." Amaterasu glowered at the fox woman bringing all of her power. "You haven't shown any threats of being Amaterasu… You were flawed from the beginning as you were a short woman unable to bring out mana outside. But look at yourself now, you have fixed that."

The Nine-Tailed Star gritted her teeth. "No one used my name… They kept calling me a failure of Amaterasu! Everything was my fault! They looked back to the past and shifted the blame on me for everything! Everything! I had no allies, for everyone wanted my body. They wanted to mate with me and force another reincarnation! They wanted to decimate me and cut my limbs. Only The Dragon had good intentions, but his fucking brother manipulated him! And then… That piece of shit… The Human Emperor overwhelmed me…."

Amaterasu's expression softened, and she smiled. "I really love my name… But before I became Amaterasu, my family told me that I'd fix every problem if I were to become Amaterasu. I never expected to become one, but I worked hard to become as strong as Amaterasu himself. Yes, at that time, a man held that title. He took me into his family, and I climbed the ranks to become his successor. I was like his daughter… He'd shown me a world and that Amaterasu meant nothing more than more problems ahead. I still believed I'd be able to fix that and failed… I feel like we can reach a consensus here, The Nine-Tailed Star… Our race, and people wielding flames, are worthless."

"Doesn't change anything, Amaterasu. I'll erase you. We don't need the sun." The Nine-Tailed Star declared.

"You're Leon's sun, though." Amaterasu pulled the heartstrings with those words.

And her opponent utterly despised that as her face contorted uglily.

She threw her star at Amaterasu!

"All he needs is Louise, me!"
