The Wish of the Dragon

Chapter 153: Side

"Wh-What do you want to do?"

"Hmm, I want to placate my wife's anger of course."

"B-Before I'm your wife, I'm your master!"

"You have it backwards, Shishou..." Issei whispered huskily beside her ears: "You're my wife, my woman, before you're my master."

"Y-You!" Scathach face went beet red. They have been married for so long but she still couldn't win against his sweet words.

Coming into close proximity with his devilishly handsome face made her heartbeat went haywire. Until this very day, she and his sisters still couldn't comprehend just how can there be such a perfect man. His very existence is a sin!

Those seemingly frail arms from the past when they first met now had an appearance worthy of the hidden strength that always accompanied them. Those defined muscles and abs that would make any man jealous and any woman feel lustful...

She reckons if he were to seriously chase after a woman, a single glance of that unbearably attractive face was all it took for a woman to become his prisoner. All he needs to do then just beckon them with his finger and they would willingly throw themselves at him.

Even if that woman has a special preference or already has a love of their life. They would willingly throw everything aside just to enter his arms... then they won't be willing to leave any longer. They will be his "prisoners" for eternity. Forget using his power, just using his charm alone would've been enough to decimate an entire world...

Not even the Succubus Queen could compete against his charm.

She's being carried by him and her body reflexively went soft. Her body has been completely trained by his touch over the past years...

She recalled the feel of his fingers gliding along her bare skin. How easily they slid up and down her back... The way they brought heat to her flesh and made her body limp with suppressed pleasure, causing her to feel restless and filled with lustful anticipation.

"N-No, don't..." Even now her struggle is only a half-assed effort, she's trying to keep her almost nonexistent dignity whenever she's in his arms. She knows more than anyone how much she wanted this... how she wanted to feel his touch yet again.

"Nope." He cheerfully answered with a smile.

"Y-You idiot..." She mumbled before her body is dropped to the bed.

Before she could utter another protest, Issei already loomed over her body and bombarded her with sweet kisses along her neck.

"Mnn..." She unintentionally moaned.

Her arms unconsciously wound around him and rested over his shoulder blades. Her perky breasts were smashed against his chest and she could feel the powerful, steady beat of his heart. His member had gone hard and now lay on her belly with a searing warmth.

She doesn't even know just when he stripped his clothing...

Issei's eyes flashed with a playful light seeing the moaning woman below him. He blamed her beloved wife and mentor for his body's reaction. Who told her to have such soft, supple skin? Who told her to be such a captivating empress? Well, he could resist it but where was the fun in that? It's much better seeing her flustered over his teasing.

Issei felt a tad bit sadistic seeing the squirming empress before him. He kept kissing her neck, her earlobe, her cheeks, her chin... But he never planted a kiss on her lips.

Sometimes he would hover over her lips and she would pucker her lips trying to lock her lips with him but he would immediately go towards her nose or her chin instead.

She felt frustrated over his teasing but there's nothing she could do but grit her teeth enduring the embarrassment.

She was too shy to look down but the length and girth she felt over her toned stomach caused her unnecessarily hotter.

One hand caressing that purple silky soft hair while the other ran a finger across her mouth.

These lips... Issei thought to himself... He'd taken them so many times throughout the years but he still never tired of it. He will never get bored with any of his wives... Every time they made sweet sweet love with each other, the novel feeling never seems to diminish in the slightest...

The way she looked at him with those wide red eyes, unblinking, soft, and compliant underneath him. Wet and willing, offering herself to him... Her mouth might say no but her body has already surrendered long ago... He knows this, She knows this but yet... She's just too shy to openly admit it.

After a full 2 minutes of his teasing, she finally pleaded: "I-Ise..."

"Hm?" He hummed seductively.

"K... Kiss..."

"What was that?" He feigned ignorance.

"I said Kiss me!" She scowled in pure embarrassment.

He gives a faint chuckle before he finally granted her wish. He didn't need to be asked twice and promptly dipped his head, realizing this was the perfect position for thorough kissing. He took her mouth with a gentle and searching possession, savoring her slowly. Their tongues danced with each other in a hot and slippery mess.

Scathach's nipples had long since become diamond-hard. Her breath came in long, deep pulls that caused a steady rise and fall of her perky breasts. Her nostrils filled with his intoxicating scent... She tried desperately not to lose herself. His taste was just too addicting, his touch too full of not just desire, but boundless love and affection.

Scathach moaned into his mouth in bliss.

Soon enough, without her knowledge, he was already undoing buttons and strings slowly peeling away at her clothes. In less than 10 seconds, he already stripped her bare. He set her clothes aside to the ground.

After putting away her clothes, his hands never stopped. They slid their way up her inner thigh. Her toes curled in anticipation, but while they prodded near her lower lips, they didn't enter. They only teased her just like he did with her lips, waiting patiently.

Scathach knew exactly what he was up to.

He wanted her to beg him yet again...

"Nngh..." She uncomfortably squirmed under his hold. His other hand is playing with her firm buttocks. He played with it to his heart content.

'Hateful...' Scathach cursed inside her mind. He knows just how sensitive her body is.

He doesn't need to use his 'spear' and she would become a sloppy mess by the end of it... But that's not what she wants. She wanted him to enter her and fill her to the brim like always...

Finishing without him entering her is plain torture for her itching womb. Her womb wanted to be filled and it wanted to conceive another child...

He thoroughly explored the inside of her mouth until she almost passes out from the kiss alone and only then he withdrew his tongue from her mouth. But not before he took another lick at her upper lip.

"You taste so delicious... Shishou..." He whispered hotly next to her ear.

Scathach's heart quickened at his hot breath tickled her ear. It was good she had already been laid down, for she was certain she'd have been unable to stand on her own. These large hands and strong fingers crawled all over her body provocatively, rendering her incapable of standing even if she wanted to.

Not even a full five minutes passed and she almost reaches her limit...

His thumb traced slow, excruciating circles around her flower bud while the same annoying smirk adorning his face.

"You... You dare..." She said between her heated breath.

"Just tell me what you want, shishou... And I can make you feel even better." The devil whispered once again.

"I" Scathach trailed off breathlessly. She tried to reject him. In her mind she had a stronger will, imagining herself telling him no. Imagined pushing him away and escaping. She's the Queen of the Land of the Shadows, the feared God slayer who's feared by all damn it!

But it was useless... The words were stuck in her throat. Leaving was a distant dream and she out of all people know this the best. The years they've spent together has been the prime example that escape was never an option...

Once his flip has been switched, not even the most devoted nun... Not even the highest rank of archangel... Not even the Goddess of Chastity herself could resist him!

His 'spear' head had swelled up even further and 'smile' at her with an overbearing arrogance. Her face paled. His stupid disciple majesticness was put on full display before her very eyes.

But he didn't do anything, not yet. No, he simply continued to work at her... She could only lay there and put up a futile resistance. But no matter how long she waited, this captor of hers was too cruel. He was meticulous and patient, bringing her again and again to the very edge of orgasm before pulling her back.

She was so sensitive but somehow he manages to discover her limit right before she could reach her long-awaited orgasm.

She wanted to bite him to death. She had been close to cumming dozens of times by now but he just... wouldn't... let her!

And all the while, while she's trying her best to resist her urges, his erect member grinned at her. Mocking her with its girth and length. No, challenging her.

He wanted her to beg for it, she knew. And much to her frustration, she knows that she will be the one who will beg him for it in the end... And so she begged: "Put it... Put it in inside me..." She softly said.

His smirk widening before it changes into a loving and gentle smile... Ah, not fair... She thought to herself... This smile of his is just so unfair... How can she stay mad at him when he smiles like this?

His hand slid down the curve of her waist, to the bell of her hip. Over her thigh, up the inside, and then his finger was tracing wet lower lips, sending a hissing breath past her lips. He'd made sure she was as sensitive as possible so now even that simple maneuver was enough to drive her crazy.

The head of his dragon spear rubbed against the fresh dew of her beautiful flower petals. He guided his shaft between those two pink lips, thoroughly moistening himself with her fluids. Already he itched to be inside her. But he just had to be patient on this, had to lubricate himself properly. It took entirely too long before the level of saturation was satisfactory.

He waited not a moment longer and decided to enter that tempting flower bud.

When he did, Scathach gasped, quivering from head to toe. As if a large current of electricity just run through her entire sensitive body.

She felt like she was being slowly impaled by a hot iron pillar. Every inch of rock-hard flesh pushed aside her inner walls and brought an extremity of raw pleasure. Not a single bit of space was left untouched as he continued to plunge deeper and deeper into her tiny cave that has been completely shaped into his length.

Her insides stretched and tightened, pleasantly squeezing his fully erect member.

Scathach is at a loss for words... She could distinctly feel every tiny movement of his cock and each thrust contained a world-shaking power. The tip of his spear dug deeply, hitting and kissing the entrance of her womb like it was just waiting to recklessly seed her like it has always been after all this time... Her own womb screams out wanting to be impregnated and her womanly instinct also wanted to bear him another child.

Issei wasn't content with just this. He lifted her up off the bed and into the air, her legs clinging to him for dear life. He pushed her body down while he thrust his hips at the same time... She helplessly fell atop his spear, taking him in even deeper than before. His spearhead immediately pries open her womb entrance and comfortably nestled inside...

If before she felt like a jolt of electricity run through her body now Scathach felt like her body has been hit with lightning.

Having been played with by her beloved husband for so long, the stimulation that had built up now no longer being so carefully held in check... it finally proved too much and caused an explosion of euphoric spasms. Once... Twice... Thrice... Wave after wave of orgasms hit her nonstop.

Her tongue lolled out with her eyes slowly rolled back to the back of her skull...

Scathach's back arched. She shuddered uncontrollably as a glistening liquid began to drip from her crotch.

She was supported only by his muscled arms, without the slightest bit of strength to call her own. Both of her arms limply hanged to her side...

Issei who saw this smile lovingly before he hugged her even tighter before sealing her lips with his once again.

"Nnn! Mmn! Hnn!" Scathach moaned. She drew upon her vast reserves of inner energy trying to get her strength back. She almost passed out just now and then but thankfully his searing kiss made her snapped out of her daze.

She pushed him down and straddled him good and proper, riding him with a hard, wild abandon, trying to gain control. She teased his cock playfully in a show of superb hip control. She used everything she has in her arsenal trying to make him cum.

Issei hugged her slim, seductive figure. One hand was at her waist while the other threaded its fingers through her amethyst colored hair. He fully enjoys the view of her full and perky breasts bouncing up and down.

He suddenly pumped into her as fast, hard, and deep as he could. Their grunts and moan mingled together. They changed positions constantly. It wasn't a coordinated effort as much as it was an animalistic wrestle. One moment he was on top, the next she'd be the one to have him pinned.

They went at each other fearlessly just like how a warrior would battle against each other.

Her orgasms had soaked into his skin and left her unique scent.

After she cummed for the umpteenth time, Scathach had finally managed to make him cum and her insides are marked with his potent juices, inside and out. She didn't know if his smell would ever wash off by tomorrow. She didn't know if she wanted it to.

Needless to say, the stink of their sex had now come to pervade not just the entire room, but the whole fortress.

Even with Issei's barrier surrounding their room, it couldn't block the potent smell of his scent.

Forzelotte is the first to notice this and she hastily makes their daughters fell asleep with her magic. It wouldn't do them any good if their daughters were to be affected by his scent.

Shirayuki and the older ones such as Amou, Momoyo, Kozelotte, etc tried to resist her magic but in the end, they failed. They regretfully fell asleep along with their little sisters.

"That idiot..." Forzelotte heaved a sigh. She took a glance at her sisters who have flushed cheeks... They keep looking at his bedroom direction with a longing expression. Even she herself is not any better...

She couldn't be bothered by their guests who decided to stay here... Vali and Kuro are the only ones who stayed behind and both of them are also affected by his scent. Ophis of this world also decided to make this place her domain.

If it wasn't for Arthur insistence then perhaps Le Fay would also stay behind. But it's probably for the best...

Forzelotte and the others still manage to retain their sanity in the end since this is not the first time for them to smell his scent but for the three newcomers... It is a death sentence for their sanity.

"Nyaaww~" Kuro moaned heatedly in front of the barrier trying to tear it down with her hands before she used her claws. Then she used her <Senjutsu>...

"Haah... Haahh... <Divide>... <Divide>... Mmm!" Vali already exposed her <Divine Dividing> also trying her best to take down the barrier. Her clothes barely cover her private parts at this point feeling as if her entire body is on fire...

If Ophis power isn't sealed by Forzelotte then perhaps she would've used everything she has as well to take down the barrier. But regardless, she still tried using her fists to do the job.

Thankfully the rest of the girls already left or there will be <Chaos>... Even if the Grayfia of this world or Rias of this world truly loves their other counterpart, they would succumb to Issei's 'charm' in the end... Even if the person himself never really tries to 'charm' them in the first place.

Whereas for Gabriel... Needless to say, even a thousand Michael won't be able to help her from become a fallen this time around.

Inside the bedroom, even now, as Scathach tight buttocks ground against his proud spear in a teasing manner, she still showed no sign of wanting to stop. Neither did he.

Issei felt amazed by his mentor's endurance. To think that she could come this far... It looks like all of the 'training' sessions they had after all this time is bearing some fruit...

But Issei is more than happy and willing to accompany this seductive mentor of his.

That night, the whole house is filled with Scathach blissful moans... and the desperate attempt from the three guests of theirs. Forzelotte and the others decided to just put another set of barrier around them...

In the end, what ended their 'battle' is a begging sound from Scathach begging for mercy but Issei is having none of it and keep filling her insides with his seed, wanting to make his beloved mentor bear him another child...

Despite her saying that it's already enough, he still didn't stop until she finally fainted in exhaustion... With that many baby batter inside her womb, it would be a miracle if she didn't get pregnant already...

Only after then that Issei nodded in satisfaction... Over the sight of his beloved wife spasming in pleasure.

She couldn't tell what's what anymore.

Her mind is completely blank while she moaned deliriously once in a while.

She collapsed against his chest, panting hard, sweaty from head to toe. Her flower bud having just undergone a world-changing level of stimulation, showing not the slightest signs of calming down. She was so sensitive down there right now that even a light breath of air could likely send her over the edge. She'd become soft and boneless, without a single ounce of strength.

Issei hugged her tightly against his chest before he also drifts off to the land of dreams...

On the next morning, Issei is greeted by three girls with black circles around their bloodshot eyes looking at him criticizingly. To think that Ophis is also in the same state is quite something...

"Hm? What happened to you three?" He asked cluelessly.

"...You still dare ask us what's wrong?" Vali gritted her teeth in frustration. To think that this clueless idiot is the one who made her heart beat erratically... He's a handsome idiot but that's not the point! And that unnecessarily sweet intoxicating scent that would make her body goes hot is still lingering in the air albeit it's not as potent anymore. But it still chipping away her sanity even as they speak...

Kuro is out of energy after using most of her energy trying to break the barrier. She could only crawl towards his direction while spouting nonsense such as: "N-Nyaa... G-Give me your... Seed... nyauu..." Then she passed out.

Ophis of this world was feeling so annoyed that there's black miasma surrounding her. She glared at Issei surprising even him. Not even his Ophis could glare at him like this.

To say that she's in heat at this point would be an understatement... But unfortunately for her, Issei won't just sleep with any woman even if that woman looks extremely similar to his wives.

Scathach is still out cold on the bed. Issei had to pamper her for a whole day much to his daughters' dissatisfaction.

Shirayuki enviously looks at her mother Scathach during the whole ordeal along with Kozelotte and the others.

Scathach glared at Issei menacingly but her glare looks like a little wife feeling grievance rather than anything else...

Issei could only smile apologetically at her... Not that he's really sorry in the first place since he would've done it again if the chance allows him to...

And Scathach herself would love to experience it again but she's too shy to admit it.

...

"Sakazuki, to your left!"

"Gh!"

"Hehe, too slow!"

*BAM!*

"Guah!"

"Damn it! <Ama No Murakumo>!" Kizaru created a sword made out of his power.

He transformed his body into an array of light to appear behind Froleytia.

"Hey hey, old man... Your tricks are getting boring you know?" Froleytia's head turned around even before he fully materialize behind her.

"Tch!" Despite being seen through, Kizaru still tried to swing his sword down.

Froleytia's only response is a slight grin before she caught the sword with her bare hands. Just like what happened to Akainu's magma fist, the blade disappeared the moment it touches her hand.

Froleytia then did a roundhouse kick and send Kizaru's flying.

"Hmm, that was fun... albeit it was quite short." Froleytia huffed wiped her nonexistent sweat.

"Gh... Damn you!" Akainu groaned on the ground alongside Kizaru.

All around them, the marines and the Pacifistas are in disarray. While the marines are mostly unconscious, the Pacifistas are destroyed completely.

"Big sis, hurry it up already, I'm bored," Hiyuki whined.

"Fine fine..." Froleytia said with a sigh: "Well, you heard my little sis... Let's end this already." She crackled her fist.

Kizaru and Akainu gritted their teeth for being taken so lightly.

They made eye contact with each other before nodding to themselves.

They both sprang into action once more but this time Akainu didn't aim at Froleytia. He aimed at Hiyuki who seems completely harmless with full strength from the start.

"Oh?" Froleytia bemused to herself while blocking Kizaru's attack.

"Hm?" Hiyuki raised her eyebrows in surprise. She never thought they would suddenly decide to attack her out of nowhere... Just kidding, she can sense their intention from miles away.

"Aha, so you decided to attack me thinking I'm an easier target? I see I see..." Hiyuki nodded sagely before a mischievous glint appeared on her eyes: "But too bad. You just activated my trap card~"

Akainu fist almost touched Hiyuki's body but right before it can come fully in contact with her body, a large dark miasma surged out from her body.

The miasma took shape of a shadowy figure of a Dragon with four claws on each side of its body, and then it smashed Akainu's body into the ground with one of its claw.

"Gaha!" Akainu spat out a copious amount of blood. The magma that he's so proud of is rendered useless yet again since the Shadow Dragon seems to absorb it without difficulty.

The Shadow Dragon picked his body up then throw it into the air before punching him once again. His body flew backward landing right next to the other marines creating a giant crater in the process.

After finishing its job, the Shadow Dragon folded its 4 arms in front of its chest acting as a bodyguard of Hiyuki.

"Sakazuki!" Kizaru shouted in shock.

"Hey hey, where are you looking?" Froleytia menacing voice resounded.

"!!!" Kizaru shuddered.

"<Dragon Punch>!"

*BANG!*

Kizaru body flew yet again...

"You called it <Dragon Punch> but it's only a normal punch though..." Hiyuki deadpanned.

"Shuddup, little sis." Froleytia huffed.

Being an anti elemental Dragon, Froleytia couldn't really use any element of her own yet. Her mother, Ramius could use the attack she received from her opponents and reflect every elemental attack that comes her way multiple times stronger than it first came out and not just simply cancel it out.

And she could even use that said elemental to heal herself from her injuries. She's what you called a perfect tank.

"Wh-What in the world... two high ranked admirals couldn't stand a candle in front of those two girls..." The pirates who watch the show muttered in utter shock.

"Hey, ossan. How are they able to punch that magma and light old men?" Straw Hat asked curiously.

"They're using <Haki>." Rayleigh responded while feeling slightly shocked as well.

"<Haki>?"

"I'll explain and also show you how to use it later on," Rayleigh said in dismissal.

He couldn't really tell them that the <Haki> they used is vastly different from his <Haki>. Just like their mothers... he thought bitterly to himself.

"Damn... They're..."

"Strong?"

"Strong is not enough to describe them... That white-haired girl alone basically toyed with the 2 admirals as if they're nothing..."

"Captain..."

"I know. We should avoid fighting them at all costs. We can go against the other emperors and might even survive, but I don't see how we could survive against a pirate crew that each and single one of them could easily defeat 2 admirals at once without breaking a sweat."

The pirates converse between themselves.

Kizaru slumped to the ground and realized that Akainu has fainted.

"So what now, old man? Want to have another go?" Froleytia asked in a laidback attitude.

He gritted his teeth at the bare provocation. This day ought to be another embarrassing day for the marines!

"Ara? You two are still here?" A slightly surprised voice resounded behind them.

"Oi oi... Isn't that..." One of the pirates muttered in disbelief.

"Natal March Hyoudou..." His friend continued.

Indeed, the newcomer is none other than Natal herself.

"Natal kaa-san?" Even Froleytia and Hiyuki are a little surprised at her arrival.

While the pirates tensed up, the marines completely froze while their whole face and back are covered in a cold sweat.

But thankfully for them, Natal doesn't seem to pay attention to them at all.

"Jeez, what's taking the two of you so long?" Natal lightly rebuked.

"Uhh..."

"It's big sis's fault, Natal kaa-chan." Hiyuki pointed out.

"Hiyuki you!"

"Jeez, Tia... What did I say about messing around?" Natal sighed tiredly.

"It's not my fault, these so-called marines suddenly attacked us out of nowhere."

"Umm, they didn't really attack you for no reason... It's because you hit one of the <Tenryuubito>." Rayleigh helpfully added.

"<Tenryuubito>? Now, where have I hear that name..." Natal thought to herself.

"They're the same people that you and Captain Francis attacked before. The slavers noble."

"Ah... That 'thing' huh. So, what did this one do then?" Natal said in realization.

She doesn't even consider those trashes a human being...

"That snotted brat said that he wanted to make me and Hiyuki be their wives by force," Froleytia explained.

"Ohoo... Then, where is he now?" Natal narrowed her eyes dangerously: "Looks like another purge is needed. How about we just wipe them all out this time?"

Natal said as if they're taking a walk rather than annihilating the infamous world nobles...

Kizaru sweated a whole lot more when he sensed Natal's bloodlust.

"While that offer is tempting but not all of the world nobles are completely rotten, captain Natal." Rayleigh wryly smiled.

"Hmph, that doesn't matter. If Darling were to know of this then it would be a lot worst you know?" Natal scoffed in disdain: "Whether they're good or bad doesn't really matter when our daughters are involved. Lightest punishment from him would be the annihilation of this Tenru something trash whereas the harsher one would be the end of your world."

"Surely you jest..." Rayleigh sweated.

"You think I'm joking? Well, you can think of it that way I guess... Ignorance is bliss after all." Natal waved uninterestedly.

It's probably better for them to think that they're just joking...

"Well, we'll deal with them later. Let's go visit the fabled underwater kingdom of the fishmen. Who knows, perhaps we could discover something new that we could make use." Natal said.

"Ou/Okay!" Both Froleytia and Hiyuki nodded.

Then the three of them calmly walk towards the ocean ignoring the downed admirals and the rest of the pirates.

Once they arrived at the edge of the water, Natal whistled softly.

In the next moment, A group of Sea Kings emerged from the ocean shocking the onlookers'.

"Take us to the Fish-man island," Natal ordered.

The largest sea king who shaped like a dragon serpent with the pattern of black and white stripes obediently nodded before it lowered its head towards Natal.

Natal and the two girls then stepped onto their head before the sea kings dived back into the ocean...

"...Wh-What was that?!"

"D-Did she just..."

"Ordered a sea king to do her biddings?!"

"More than that, aren't they supposed to be a <Devil Fruit> user? Then how come they can freely touch the seawater as if they're nothing!?"

"You didn't know about Natal March's ability to freely control water? It's confirmed not long ago but she's being capable of ordering the sea kings is something unknown till now..."

The onlookers heatedly discussed between themselves.

Kizaru who's still awake is having a cold sweat streaming down his entire body.

"...This is... quite dangerous..." He muttered solemnly. He then hastily ordered the remaining standing marines and carried the unconscious Akainu with him... He needs to report this immediately!

Looks like they still underestimated the Eternal Crimson Pirate's threat level!

"Ki-Kizaru-san!" One of the marines with a pale face shouted.

"What's wrong?" Kizaru has a bad feeling about this...

"S-S-S-Saint Carlos has been killed!"

Saint Carlos is the same snotted brat that tries to make Froleytia and Hiyuki be his wives. Apparently, Froleytia kick didn't kill him... In the split second Natal heard Froleytia's report, she immediately ordered the <Abyssal Human> who was in hiding to kill him.

"...I'm getting too old for this shit..." Kizaru sighed tiredly.

...

"Hmm, this place reminds me of my world dungeon..." Arte muttered seeing the vastly different biome within the dungeon.

"Oh? Your world has a place similar to this dungeon? Not really surprising I suppose." Hajime replied while killing another monster.

"Mhm. It's called <Tower of Babylon> by many." Arte nodded.

The reason for that is because Issei is the one who created it.

"Is it as dangerous as this place?" Hajime asked.

"Well, it's mostly safe around the lower levels but the higher you climb up the more dangerous it is. From the first floor until the tenth floor, you can't really die since there is a safety magic at work. If the adventurers died on the first ten floors then they will be revived at the entrance of the dungeon. At a cost of course." Arte explained: "You could say it's a tutorial floor."

"Hmm, I see. Then how about the upper floor after the tenth floor?"

"That's when the risk of danger becomes real. If they were to die on the eleventh floor and above then they will truly die unless they prepared a special item just in case... There are one hundred floors in total and whoever manages to reach the last floor will receive a reward from father himself."

The intention of the Tower is to make his subjects strive for strength so they won't just stay in place all the time. Progress is what they needed after all not stagnation.

While they were conversing with each other, they found an odd place. The space around the area was eerie. At the end of the side area was a solemn majestic double door about three meters in height. On the flanks of the doors were two one-eyed giants sculptures enshrined into the walls. Only their upper bodies were sculpted it seemed.

Chills ran down Hajime's whole body the moment he set foot there. Temporarily he had a dangerous feeling about this. He did not have the intention to avoid this and prepared his equipment.

Hajime was feeling expectation and unpleasantness at the same time.

"This place is quite dangerous..." He said.

"Mm... I guess it is for your current strength. But it should be fine if you're careful enough." Arte affirmed.

"..." Hajime started thinking to himself before he finally decided to see just what's behind the door.

Arte gives a silent nod at his action. Without enough bravery then he won't be able to grow. Don't get her wrong, being cautious is completely good but he also needed a certain amount of bravery to break his limit.

At least that's what she was taught by her father and mother... There's no shame in running away as long as you get to fight for another day.

Hajime touched the door and there are two cyclops that appeared. He killed the two cyclops quite easily before advancing forward.

But that two cyclops were not the reason for the danger he felt and the cause for Arte's warning.

"I'll store the bodies for you." Arte offered.

"Oh, thank you." Hajime nodded at her offer.

Arte stored the 2 cyclops bodies with her spatial magic.

The room that they entered was made from finely crafted marbles and it looked similar to the Church room they were first summoned into. In the center of the room was a huge cube of stone that reflected the incoming light and lustered.

Hajime was staring at the cube when he noticed that something was growing in the front center of the cube.

"Oh? A vampire?" Arte mumbled seeing the person within the cube.

"A what now?" Hajime retorted. Before he could hear the reply of Arte...

"Who?" A husky voice belonging to a frail girl. Hajime stared at the center of the room in surprise. The early "growing" was now moving. With the light finally piercing the darkness, the identity of it was exposed.

Only the face could be seen, every other part was buried in the cube. Long blond hair hung down around the woman, like a ghost from a certain horror film. Pupils of red were peeping from the gaps of hair, just like a low-altitude moon. From her looks, she looked around 12-13 years old. The dangled hair looked haggard, but it still had a beautiful appearance.

"A human?"

"No, she's a vampire." Arte corrected: "So why are you sealed here?" Arte asked the vampire curiously.

"Please! Save me," The vampire girl suddenly shouted.

Hajime immediately went forward and stand before Arte with his body tensed up.

"Hn?" Arte raised her eyebrows over Hajime's act.

"She could be dangerous. This is the bottom of the abyss and there's no way someone or something such as that vampire would be sealed here for no reason, so I-." Hajime stated.

"Stop that." Arte bonked his head from behind stopping his words.

"Wh-What?" Hajime rubbed his head.

"Stop treating her like a thing even if she's of a different race from you. She's not 'something'..." Arte admonished.

"N-No, that's not what I..." Hajime tried to reason.

"It's fine, I know you meant well but there's no need for you to be cautious for me. I'm stronger than you, remember?" Arte chuckled.

"...Right." Hajime sighed despondently.

"And besides, I don't think she's an evil person, you know." Arte said while looking at the desperate vampire girl.

"Th-That's right... I'm not evil..." The vampire girl responded to Arte's words: "I was just... betrayed..."

Hajime's body slightly flinched at her words.

"Betrayed? Because of what?" Arte continues asking.

"I'm an atavistic vampireI was granted great powerbecause of it I worked hard for my country. Butone dayall my retainerstold me I was not needed anymore. Unclebecame my kingI was fine with thatHowever, I was dangerous because of my powersthey couldn't kill meso they sealed mein here."

She talked desperately and bit by bit it became dried. Hajime groaned while he heard the story while Arte nods understandingly. Seems like the circumstances were full of drama. There were a few things that bothered her. He inquired as he suppressed his boiling emotions.

"So you're basically immortal then?" Arte inquired further.

"Un... Automatic regeneration. Injuries heal immediately. Even if decapitated." The vampire girl nodded.

"I see."

"Please... Help me..." The vampire girl pleaded once again.

"Alright." Arte readily nod.

"Wait! You're really going to help her just like that? We don't even know if she's ly- Ah..." Hajime was about to say something when he realizes Arte's wry smile. That's right... She could tell if somebody is telling the truth or not, didn't she?

As if realizing what he was thinking, Arte confirmed his guess: "I can tell when someone is telling the truth or not, remember?"

"O-Ou, my bad." He sighed and scratched his head.

"Y-You will really help me?" The vampire girl asked in surprise.

"Yup. Now hold still." Arte nodded before she put her right hand on the cube. In the next second, the cube shrunk visibly releasing the vampire girl in the process.

She dropped into a childish seat after all her body was set free. Her body seemed to lack the energy to stand up.

"Hajime, look away." Arte ordered.

"What? Why- Oh nevermind." Hajime was about to ask when he realizes that the vampire girl is basically in her birthday suit. He hastily turns around to give the two girls some space.

"Here, drink this potion. You seem to be lacking in strength and magic power. Probably because you haven't drink blood for a long time now." Arte took out a vial of potion from her inventory and gave it to her. Then she also took out a set of clothes for her to wear: "After that, you can wear these clothes."

She couldn't transfer her energy to the vampire since she couldn't fully control her power just yet.

"U-Um, thank you..." The vampire girl dazedly muttered. She took the potion with her trembling hand.

This girl before her is obviously a demon... To think that she would help her just like that. The demons are known to be quite evil by many so seeing one being this kind is quite surprising for her...

The vampire girl unplugged the vial seal and hesitatingly drink the potion... But soon her body started twitching crazily with her entire body turning hot. Her cheeks reddened rapidly before she slumped backwards to the ground shaking uncontrollably.

There's a puddle of 'water' beneath her... Her eyes rolled back while her mouth is greedily licking the vial of potion in her hand. Even though there's nothing left within the vial... It's as if she wanted to taste the lingering taste within it.

"Ah, that's bad..." Okita Alter who witnessed this sighed to herself, she has forgotten about the blood effect on the vampire race. That girl is obviously a vampire... And that 'potion' Arte just gave her is not a normal potion... It's a potion made with her Master's blood. It's an all-purpose elixir rather than a potion...

And what happened to the vampires who drank his blood you say? Even if it's just a drop? Heh... Just look at this poor vampire girl state.

Even the infamous Carmilla becomes a complete mess when she first tasted his blood. Suffice to say that she becomes an addict at this point... Another person's blood tastes utterly bland and so disgusting that she wanted to puke just from smelling it or so they've been told...

And the 'potion' Arte just given away has more density of blood compared to other 'potion' that's sold in the <Netherworld> auction market. Not that there's a lot of them are being sold in the first place and even then there's only one drop of blood within that said 'potion'. But a drop of blood is still a drop of blood and it's more than enough for the Vampires faction to use everything they have to obtain it.

But most Vampires in the <Netherworld> knows better than to drink the 'accursed potion'. Because after drinking his blood they won't be able to drink other blood.

In a way, his blood is a curse for the vampires... Not that ever stopped most of the true vampire or ancestor vampire from drinking it though.

The other Vampires deeply envied Elmenhilde Karstein and Carmilla for being able to become his wife since they're able to drink his blood whenever they wanted to.

Thankfully Arte only took out the smallest vial of potion in her possession or else... She might die from the sheer pleasure of drinking it alone...

"Eh? Ehh?!" Arte panicked seeing the state of the vampire girl: "Wh-What's wrong?!"

"Hm?" Hajime hastily turns his head thinking something has happened to Arte only to stiffened in the next moment.

"D-Don't look here!" Arte who realizes his gaze reflexively sends a magic bullet to his face sending him flying.

He becomes knocked unconscious the moment he hit the ground.

The vampire girl's vision started to darken after a few minutes of spasming on the ground... Just like a junkie, she started craving for more despite the danger it would bring to her body.

She crawled towards Arte and grasped her leg: "M-More... Give... Me... Moreee..." Just like a Zombie, she keeps muttering 'more' over and over...

"Ehhh?! Eh! Wh-What?!" Arte becomes completely flabbergasted. She didn't know what to do since she doesn't know about the potion's effect.

During her panic, a monster that could possess a threat to Hajime dropped from the ceiling.

Okita Alter decided to intervene and knocked her out or she would become insane from the sheer pleasure... While she's at it, she cleaved the monster who dropped from the ceiling in half. The monster doesn't even know how it died...

"M-Majin-mama... This... What happened to her?" Arte asked cluelessly.

"Arte, we need to have a little talk..." Okita Alter sighed.
