Ghoul King's Harem

Chapter 247 247: Stage Seven - Emperor

The veins in his body felt like they were transferring liquid flame to his organs as they bubbled and boiled in the furnace of hell he inflicted upon himself as with the transformation before to be reborn with Laura and Mildred... he could feel his connection growing with the women closest to him.

It feels like my bloodline is making distinctions... Who are my wives... My empress... queens... and princesses.

His thoughts were not completely wrong as most Vesta were placed distant, still closer than ever before. He could feel their worries and dreams and even speak to them if he wished.

Oh... that girl is going to die... Quick! Dodge to your right and stab 150 degrees!

An image inside the darkness showed a Stage Four Vesta with brown hair looking stunned at the voice as a flying Stage Five mutant bird lunged at her from the sky, the sound like a jet engine flying across the street.

But despite her trembling legs and fearful face, she dodged! Following his orders, she then stabbed her spear, just missing the perfect angle, yet the blade passed through its skull, slicing a third of the brain and instantly killing the mutant as the girl collapsed, breathing heavily...

"Master... I am so lucky... your voice, I heart it.... thank you." A gentle voice filled with the exhaustion of battle but the happiness of living. Her eyes filled with tears as the image faded into black.

Ah... she's gone, her voice was pretty...

Alexander's world returned to the dark world of pain and suffering the moment his link with her faded, causing him to feel a sense of despair, unable to move, speak or resist as the flaming pain burned his entire body as if to eliminate all the inferior blood and flesh from before while his bones cracked and turned to ice colder than the tundra they were fighting in like permafrost being instantly heated to 1000 degrees then cooled to minus temperatures over and over as a strange black fluid formed new bones.

It hurts.... someone please seek me out.... call out to me, please.... this is unbearable!

Desperate, he called out with his soul so hard that his entire soul and evolution trembled. The strange collection of groups, from Empress to Princess, shuddered before a voice sounded in his mind, and the pain that drove him insane faded for a brief moment... 

Once again, the image began to form in this darkness, as Himari was sitting on a soft bed and stroking a bloody, bubbling puddle of flesh and bones that were black, slowly forming a living being...

Is that me?

"Master... why are your evolutions so painful? Can Himari not share the pain with you?"

"Sister, is there nothing we can do?" She looked up, and there was Ayami, who looked different from the always-tough Ayami.

lightsnοvεl Her eyes looked wet with tears, and her face was ashen as she held onto a black skeletal hand, which continuously cracked from the extreme cold before it burned with magma-like blood, but she was ignoring the temperature as her skin was already red due to her oni battle form.

Ayami was silent as she stroked the charred black bones that became stronger and more durable with each cycle as she smiled bitterly towards her sister's whimpering plea.

"How can we do anything but protect and comfort his body as he ascends further along his path to becoming the strongest." Her voice was filled with confidence as her eyes, like gemstones, never left the lump on the bed.

"Sister..." Himari cried out with her cute face and horn shining bright red, infusing the body with all of her magical healing, causing her face and arms to turn pale, yet she refused to stop and forced herself by biting her lips.

"Himari... Our master isn't someone weak enough to fall like this, so don't cry or look sad. Smile and show him your cute side, then he might rush to your side faster than you know."

"Haha... this tsundere oni! Did she feel like this in reality?"

"Eh?"

"Hah!?"

"Hmmm? They reacted strangely. Can they also hear me?"

Alexander was confused as the other girl could only hear words like an imprint on her mind, but for these two...

Ah, maybe it's because they were in the Queen group? Of them, it was surprising when he realised that both Himari and Ayami seemed to have the qualities to become his Queen rather than anything else.

"Master!? You're okay! Ah... I am so happy... good... I will try my best and heal you more... Agh..." Himari became excited, but blood spurt from her mouth as she covered it with her pale hands.

"Himari!? Stop....! Are you alright?" Ayami rushed over as her hand began to sizzle and bubble from the extreme temperatures, her skin bleeding and peeling off while rapidly healing several times.

"You two... why are you so crazy about me, even when I've done nothing for you yet..."

"Idiot!"

"Are you stupid!"

The two twins snapped back at him with a fierce snarl, causing Alexander himself to be stunned that the kind and gentle Himari called him an idiot!

Wow... but what did I do for them?

"We would be dead if you weren't here! Alexander, how can you not remember where we were? I would be a flesh-eating mutant if not for your help...!"

Himari's blue pearl tears reminded him...  When he met them, Ayami was under the control of that idiot Chu Feng or something... While the poor Himari was going to be used to save them after being bitten and scratched. 

"Sorry... I am so foolish and didn't think before speaking." 

Alexander felt regretful after remembering the situation and closed his eyes only to feel the stabbing pain in his skin like millions of bullet ants biting him constantly.

He felt the feelings of Himari and Ayami flood into his chest like antibiotics and painkillers, making the pain flow away.

"Good! You are everything to us, and even if you threw us to the dirt, we would be fine!"

"Sister... I didn't realise you were such a masochist..." Himari looked at Ayami, who once again held the hand that began to form a beautiful fair layer of skin soft, smooth and like a fairy, but even that skin was tempered by some kind of small tear that ripped it apart.

Alexander was also surprised that from the cold and tsundere personality, it seemed that Ayami was more dere than he imagined as she looked at his forming skin being torn with worried eyes constantly peeking at his main body, turning away with a blush when she saw his crotch.

"Ah, sister! Don't look!"

"Mmmm, but I haven't gotten to taste it yet..." 

This time, he was surprised to find that Himari had a perverted side! Her eyes never left his naked body like a female pervert. She bit her lower lip and moved her stool closer the further it progressed.

His lower body and chest had finished forming his package was as impressive as ever, but seeing his own body in the third person like this was also interesting for Alexander himself.

My abs are damn perfect!

"Himari, you know he can hear you... what if Alexander doesn't want us because you are drooling over his naked body!"

"Heh... stupid Ayami, you are basically masturbating with his hand! Hmph... who enters their battle form just to touch their crush's hand!"

The two sisters began to argue, one with a faint blue tint on her skin with a red shimmering horn while the other was dark red with a bluish shimmer on her white horns. 

Their simple fighting and arguing made the pain and suffering seem distant, as he couldn't help breaking out into laughter.

"Hahahahaha.... oh my god... so funny..... hahhahaha!"

Crack!

Finally, as his laughter echoed through the room as the two Oni sisters were arguing, a huge amount of magical power and strange blood power began to swirl around his body, closing the door and hut from other people entering or viewing as his skull and head rapidly formed the blood and magic also entered the body of Ayami and Himari...

Their little voices sounded as it seemed they felt only pleasure and not paint from the strange benefit.

"Sister.... why does... master have two horns...."

"Ah... this feels weird... why do they look strange... one is like yours... and the other like mine..."

"Ah!? It's true! Master loves us this much!?"

In reality, each time he had been evolving from the start, he took part of the women around him, closest to him, into his body as the huge tattoos from the previous transformations became smaller and more compact with the succubus mark on his pelvis, the vampire marking and Lycan marking on either side of his neck and the elven one across his chest.

Now, on his back was also the tattoo of wings... like Brunhild's.

The evolution was reaching its end as the three were wrapped in a black and red cocoon, both girls too excited to focus, while Alexander's heart was at peace.
