Rise of the Cosmic_Emperor

Hal opened the door to Melinda's room to check on her and make sure she was still stable but someone else was already there.

"Rita, I didn't know you were in here" Hal said as he moved towards the duo.

Rita, the only conscious of the two ladies, looked up and smiled towards Hal

"I took a break from cultivating and decided to check up on her. What happened?" She asked, turning towards Hal the one she knew had the answer, unfortunately...

"I'm not entirely sure"

...he seemed just as clueless as she was.

Rita sighed deeply

"We'll find out when she wakes up" Hal reassured her

"And when will that be?'

"A few days"

Rita clenched her fist "Damn it. Even unconscious, The competitive bitch is still trying to beat me" She could sense Melinda guzzle cosmic energy and steadily grow stronger, all that was left was the construction of the Armament.

Hal's lips twitched at the words but felt no malice from them, on the contrary, he felt...concern?

Rita's lips curved into an enchanting smile "well, this just goes to show that there is always a silver lining in any bleak situation"

Hal raised his eyebrow "Oh? And what's the silver lining this time?" He asked although it was not hard to guess

Rita put Melinda's hand down and patted it affectionately before she stood from the side of the bed to walk to the other side of it where Hal was stroking Melinda's hair while standing.

Rita placed a hand on his shoulder and wound one of her leg around his as she placed her face closely to his neck and breathed on it hotly

"Well, you see, she did not factor the fact that cultivating in a coma would leave you thoroughly in my grasp.

"For the next few days, Hal, you are all mine"

Hal groaned at the sensual tone in her voice

"I thought you wanted to focus on your cultivation" He said in a low voice that caused Rita to moan out loud as he wound one arm around her slim waist and pulled her even closer to himself.

"I wanted to keep cultivating, but I realized how unfair it was to neglect you"

Hal chuckled and said with a smirk "I'm not complaining"

"Of course you are not. All the same, it remains a fact that aside from you and Melinda –The two freaks–, no one else in this city can compare to my cultivating speed

"So why not give myself a break" With that she pressed her lips to his

Hal chuckled once they separated "You know, all you have to do is tell me you are horny"

Rita slapped him lightly, at least she thought she did. Had he not had a strong flesh courtesy of his bloodline the 'light slap' would most probably have hurt.

"You are always bullying me" she pouted

Hal laughed, picked her up in a bridal carry, kissed her and used his Astral perception to view his way out of the room.

...

Horst Manor

Amelia's room

Amelia moaned as she rolled in bed, smiling at the memory of the night before. The only blemish on the beautiful memory was that she had been robbed of the opportunity to wake up with him by her side.

She had convinced him, -weak as she was from their activities-, the night before, that he should leave before her father woke up.

"I don't fear him" Hal had said in a relaxed smile

"You already got me, you don't have to act tough with me" she had chuckled

Hal of course had not merely been acting tough. Surviving an assault from the Horst family head was not possible with his cultivation base -Even the use of {Invisibility} might not necessarily guarantee survival-, but it was possible to escape with his life should he implement the {Network of Souls} ability.

However as her advice was less messy, he smiled, kissed her on the forehead and left the manor.

Amelia finally opened her eyes and sat cross legged on the bed as she refined the Essence he had left inside her like she would absorb Cosmic energy.

The Refinement took a while but the result was more than satisfactory

"Mid stage of the Cosmic pearl realm" She mumbled in wonder when she caught a sight of her face in the full length mirror that stood in her room. She furrowed her brow slightly before she stood from the bed and sauntered over to the mirror to observe all her cosmetic changes.

"Wow" She said as she stroked her skin which seemed impossibly smoother, her complexion fairer and her physique much more toned yet remained soft and supple.

*Bam!*

Went her door as it seemed to have been kicked open. At the sound, Amelia did not flinch she simply rolled her eyes, very aware of the only one mischievous enough to walk into her room unannounced without a care of what state she was in (Naked or clothed).

"You should learn to knock" She said in a neutral tone and turned towards the arrival who was now seated on her bed, with crossed legs "Mother"

"Knocking takes too long. And you know how I occasionally prefer a direct approach" Emily chuckled and Amelia seemed to share her humor as she smiled in return

Emily looked at her daughter closely and whistled "wow, you're glowing, and I don't mean the sexual aftermath glow. What did he do to you?"

Amelia looked at her mother's widened eyes and smiled "Do you like it?" She asked turning this way and that to show off her young body to her mother

"Hmm. It's nice. So... he has it?" Emily asked

"Judging by this, I'll say yes" Amelia smiled proudly

"Lucky you" Emily said with a wide smile while still eyeing her daughter's changes.

While both mother and daughter were always cordial and seemed fairly close, the true depth of their closeness has never been truly known by anyone.

They hardly had any secrets from each other. In fact, If Amelia should ever claim to have a best friend she would not name, the friend will be none other than her mother.

Every mysterious knowledge unknown to the public or even Ford Horst himself about Emily was not secret to her daughter to whom she told everything.

"Thank you. Check this out" Amelia smiled and let out her cultivation base to show off the increase "Pretty sweet right?"

Emily nodded I agreement "Pretty sweet. I'm so jealous, my first nearly died and his seed was totally useless" She said in a casual tone and Amelia who already knew the story chuckled at the knowledge of the full detail of what had occurred

"That was his fault, he was the one who was bragging" She said and Emily smiled and nodded in approval

"So? How was it" Emily asked with a perverted smile while Amelia rolled her eyes at her mother's gossipy side

"Incredible" Amelia summed it in one word

"That, I can already infer from your loud moans. I want certain details" Emily chuckled

Amelia blushed cutely "I don't want to give them"

"Now you're feeling shy? That's so unfair." Emily smiled

"Fine, He's the best lover. He made me feel things Mom, he made me feel so many things" Amelia moaned while she picked up a robe and put it on

The term 'Best lover' should have been a little exaggerative to someone as experienced as Emily however for certain reasons (That I shall not divulge at the moment) Emily believed it a reasonable appropriation.

"Is that so? It's nice to see you so happy. Of course, I was integral in making this happen so... You're welcome" Emily said proudly while propping her hands behind her on the bed.

"Integral? You must be kidding. You brought up Melinda Dane"

"I wanted to see how he'll respond. Especially with your father right there and kudos to him, he owned up to it" Emily shrugged

"But it made Dad angry" Amelia reminded her with her hands crossed beneath her round breasts

"Don't worry about your father, To him, it won't have mattered if Hal was the most pious on this continent" Emily chuckled and Amelia smiled in agreement.

The two sat by side on the bed for a while before Amelia broke the silence

"Uhm mom?"

"Yes dear?" Emily sighed already guessing what Amelia wanted to say and sure enough

"Your condition..." Amelia began but Emily cut her off

"Let's not talk about that, Amelia" She said with pursed lips

"But Mom, he can help..." Amelia pressed on

"Amelia, I'm not sick and this 'condition' does not hinder me"

"Fine" Amelia pouted while Emily chuckled before ruffling her hair and stood from the bed

"Let's continue this in the courtyard" She said with a smile and walked out of the room.

Amelia watched her leave with a frown "I will help you, whether you want me to or not"

Master Swanson's Store

Eugene Swanson sat cross legged in the back room of his store that was also his home and tried to keep certain thoughts out of mind through cultivation.

Thanks to the Astral Sense refining Technique he had received from Hal, his astral sense was steadily growing stronger.

Was Hal mysterious? Yes

But the fact remained that he had helped him greatly with this technique and only asked for his help in return.

The plump manager, Orn walked in and sensing his arrival, Eugene opened his eyes

"Yes?" He asked

"Master, they're here to see you" Orn said

"who are?" Eugene asked with narrowed eyes

"It's them master. It's The Other Two"
