Chapter 42: PINK?

last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Under a beautiful sun and the gentle breeze, a bloody scene was being enacted.

A groan of pain echoed, sometimes followed by stifled screams.

On the clearing, one man, or rather a young boy, was laying down and fighting against the pain, while his four limbs were bound by powerful translucent chains seemingly made out of energy.

The young boy should have been rather handsome in normal times. But currently, he looked more like a demon from hell or a tortured prisoner.

His long beautiful golden hair and his handsome angular face were stained by blood as a bulge seemed to split his skull.

His dainty but large hands were bloodied as his nails were falling off. The same went for his mouth as his teeth were falling and being replaced by new one.

This wasn't all. Such changes, while painful, weren't enough to deter the boy with such a firm will.

The true problem was what was happening internally. If the boy still looked somewhat human externally, internally it was a totally different situati

    Cursing for the last time, Sol kneeled down with a haggard expression.Two days. It has been exactly two days since the start of this excruciating transformation.Pain, pain, and even more pain.During those two days, Sol couldn't count the number of times he wished to simply fall unconscious and wake up once everything ended. But he knew he couldn't.During all this time, sometimes his will would waver.Do they even need me to protect them?He would ask himself those questions and began to give up, but each time it happened. He would wake up by repeating one truth.A man who couldn't protect his loved one was lame.Nothing more, nothing less.It didn't matter how powerful they were.It didn't matter how independent they were.It didn't matter that they stood near the pinnacle both in terms of influence and personal power.And it was his duty to give them a sense of security.Some people might call it sexism or something of the like.But it wasn't so. He recognized their worth and the

    "Now that you have taken a good bath, it's time for us to observe the changes you went through."Sol now sat cross-legged on the clearing of Edea's world, Freya and Edea standing on either side of him.He was once again had his upper-body naked, but he didn't particularly mind. He liked the way Edea was covertly peeking at him and feeling the appreciative glances of a beautiful woman like Freya wasn't bad."Well, Sol, before we begin we need to be clear. We already know your capacity, so today we must understand and judge your Mana Quantity."Three principles were used to judge humans and magical beings, Mana Quantity for the two, quality for magical beings, and capacity for humans, this was the norm.Once Edea was sure that she had Sol's attention, she waved her hand and made threads of blueish energy appear in her hand."Those who manipulate mana can do it in two different ways. Those who follow the first way are called mana users, or simply warriors. They manipulate mana in its raw

    Sol frowned in concentration as he sat cross-legged on the grass while facing Freya who was also seated with her legs gathered under her.Edea was currently in her house, at the beseech of Freya.The fact that she had pink panties didn't really surprise him, nor the fact that she was utterly unashamed to show him her underwear. No, what was bothering him was his element.It would have been one thing if his element was something like metal or fire or lightning, but no, his element was something super hard to grasp.It wouldn't have been a problem if he was a full dragon. But as a hybrid, he didn't have the instinctual ability to use his element. He needed to at least get a feel for it by himself before some sparse instinct began to kick in.It has already been more than 3 hours since they sat like that, but Freya didn't seem particularly bothered. She was just looking at him with an empty gaze. It was particularly unnerving since she had seemed so bubbly at first.Feeling frustration a

    After Sol managed to enter his own dimension, he thought that what would follow would be a simple training. Something to adapt himself or so.What's more, he didn't really have that much time before his birthday and his official party.How wrong had he been, he had totally forgotten that Edea could accelerate the time difference between her world and the outside one.What he lived through was hell, his training was divided into mana use with Lilith and magic with Freya and Edea, they had decided to focus first on his mana use, since he had a ceremony to go through–fighting in the colosseum.He didn't need to hide his capacity to use magic, but he did not want to display it either. Not for any weird reason like hiding his true power, but simply because his mirror dimensions was simply too much of a powerful trump card to be exposed so easily.Just how much information could he steal with this power? It would completely change the war that would happen in a few months.As such, they dec

    "This will be our last fight before the start of your ceremony. Are you ready?""I am, don't forget our deal. If I succeed in breaking your sword or wounding you in a place that should have been fatal, I win. Once I win, you will listen to one of my demands.""Breaking my sword would mean that your intent was stronger than mine, any warriors need to be rewarded. So I will listen to any requests from you."Sol and Lilith stood apart on the clearing that was repeatedly bathed in Sol blood during the span of those forty days.Perhaps in the future, he would look back to those days with fondness, but currently, he just shivered at the thought and decided to lock those days behind a wall.Lilith was wearing her usual ridiculously revealing purple Qipao, a glowing blue large sword in her hand, while Sol stood in his trousers and a glowing golden long sword in his.This was a pure mana construct. Few if any used intent in such a crude way in a fight. Each hit would cost too much mana to main

    "Since I have won, I will make my request now."Lilith, who was previously blushing a little, had her face pale at the speed of light the moment she heard his words."Please, tell me your greatest secret."The wind stirred as Lilith faced the resolute eyes of Sol.She didn't bother to play dumb. For him to ask something like that would mean that he had already received some hint from someone else. Most likely Camelia.Of course, she also knew that Camelia was unlikely to have given him too much information, and as such she could easily lie to him, but she refused to do it. At least not now. Sol wasn't a child anymore."Please ask something else."She wasn't ready yet. She did not want to reveal this secret. If possible she would have loved to take this secret to the grave and never let Sol discover it.Surprisingly, Sol didn't insist,"Alright. So how about that. Let's have a date."What kind of nonsensical idea her nephew had again?Sol, standing in front of his mirror in his bedroom

  • The Hero King   Chapter 49: A DATE

    Sol was somewhat ashamed. In his nearly fifteen years of life, the moments he really spent time outside of the tower, while albeit rare, were quite numerous as he regularly visited the church and also visited the coliseum when he was younger.But the moment he truly spent exploring this city? Never once.He generally was in a carriage extremely protected or directly used the gate for his movement. As such, even though he was the one who initiated that date, the one giving the direction was Lilith.Lilith wasn't some introverted queen who thought she was too high to step to the commoner level. At least, before becoming a queen, she spent much of her time as an adventurer and explored many parts of this city or the world.Sol had some experience dating in his past life, but this experience couldn't be completely used here. Still, it was enough to not become an embarrassment.They mutually decided to omit the shopping part. All their clothes were tailor suited and created with the greate

    Leaving the south zone, they entered the North one. They were completely opposite and quite far apart, but compared to his hell training, walking such a long way was just relaxing.The north zone was under Duke Highland. The Duke was directly responsible of the army as well as the highest-ranked soldier.If the zone under the Milaris family was full of stores, restaurants, and others such things, the zone under Highland was calmer and sparsely populated. The atmosphere felt more deary and full of solemnity.This was the zone where different martial art schools could be found.All the humans could awaken to mana once they reached 15 years old. But only 10% of them could have a capacity high enough to make a contract with a rank E magical being and if they were lucky to obtain an element could they use magic. Only 1 out of 100 people could make a contract with a D rank magical being.In short, 99% of the human population was unable to use magic. The fact that even a queen like Lilith wa

    The gentle calming music of a harp echoed soothingly in the large dining space. In the middle of the pristine white room people, guests of today's event, sat on either side of the relatively large table. The Supreme Daughter being the only one sitting at the helm of the white wooden dining table.The stirring notes of gently plucked strings, resounding like the angelic hymns of heaven, were also the sole source of noise in the eerily quiet room. Even though the group currently dining was quite sizable, they ate in perfect and utter silence.At the head of the table sat Camelia, resting on her comfortable seat, on her right sat Sol, and on her left the Duchess Milaris eating away with elegance, the scowl never leaving her otherwise glorious face.The rectangular table was clearly divided into two camps, two sides at a silent war of stares, with Sol's side of the camp being quite empty. Still, this did not seem to bother him in the slightest.The table was filled with delicious but ligh

    He echoed out loud in absolute bewilderment.From the situation, he could somewhat guess what she meant but he wanted to hear her explain it, without that there was no way he'd be able to believe the presumptions his mind reached on its own.A sad smile, full of melancholy and pain, formed on Lilith’s face; saddening further seeing his incredulous look."Do not underestimate the means of a woman. Do you know this saying? Beauties are the bane of heroes.”Lilith didn’t dare to enter into details, just thinking about this wretched memory made her heart hurt, and made it hard for her to breathe."I do not wish for you to meet such a stupid end like your father. Your father was very poor at handling women. How to say this… He was too dense? Too easily flustered by women? I never understood why despite all his power he became a total mess when facing a person of the opposite gender."She sighed sadly, remembering about Mars and his foolish antiques when it came to women, she continued her

    Hearing his sudden question, Lilith, who was about to eat her meal, narrowed her eyes to slits; myriad emotions filtered through them before she elegantly put down her fork and knife, resting her gaze at a serious Sol, more serious than she had ever seen him before.She knew for a fact that this question would be coming her way sooner or later and in fact, was surprised it took so long.Silence settled between the two as Lilith searched for the right words to answer Sol, to explain what he desired to learn. She wished for nothing more than for him to understand her woes and the grounds behind her actions.Before getting pregnant with her daughter, Lilith had never been interested in motherhood and she believed that she was far from the perfect example of what a mother should and could be.Her life was a battlefield and she was a warrior, motherhood never came close to the nature of slaughter and destruction she cultivated throughout her life.Thus, the inevitable happened when her chi

    Having cummed thrice from Milia's passionate and meticulous attention, Sol had fallen asleep almost immediately. The day's tiredness, and the mental strain of the pleasure he received, coupled with the strain of the passion-filled exercise was just too much for him to do anything but immediately shuttle to the realm of sleep. However, for some unknown reason, as the light of the sun, filtering through the curtains, shined on his shut eyes and began to rouse him from his deep sleep, he felt a wet and warm sensation surrounding his lower body, specifically his hardened meat-slab. Slowly rubbing his heavy eyelids, still drooping with sleep, he looked at his crotch, and immediately, identified the source of the pleasurable feeling originating from his pleasure organ. “Good morning, your highness.” Milia looked up at him with a gentle and slightly lecherous smile, but for some reason, his underwear was pulled down to his knees and his morning wood was held firmly in her dainty hands, s

    In this world of fantasy and magic, Seven Kingdoms stood tall. Each of them, named after one of the seven sins, each of them representing one of the seven races inhabiting this world.Among them, there was the race of humans, and their kingdom was called Lustburg, named after the most hedonistic of all the sins, the sin of lust — representing the relentless passion and prolific desire the race representing it, humans, instinctually held.Presently, in a luxurious room situated at the very top of the royal palace of Lustburg known as the tower of Babel — a tall tower clad in the colors of white and gold, and stylized with archaic artistry — a young blonde-haired man could be seen sleeping soundly in a grandiose circular shaped bed, large enough to hold four or five people and still have enough room for them to sleep comfortably.“May I enter, your highness?”Whatever dreams the young man might’ve been experiencing were broken like shattered glass as his eyelashes faintly quivered, the

    What followed was a simple speech where Sol talked a little about himself and his wish to make the kingdom stronger and better. The usual rubbish.He now understood a little why politicians always lied during elections. The populace didn't care about the truth. The truth was heavy and full of bleakness.What they needed was someone who could make them dream. Someone who could promise them better days ahead. That was also why religion was always popular no matter what era.Well, this was just his opinion based on his experience.After the speech followed by the applaud, Sol's role was pretty much over. It was just noon and he had until the evening before having to go visit the Highland family. As such he decided to go to the quarters in the tower of babel with Lilin.After welcoming her, Sol immediately began discussing with Lilin about her adventures."For the first few weeks, I just stayed in the kingdom."From what she said, she didn't simply leave without any plan. She stayed in th

    Under a shed in the hanging garden, a beautiful red-haired woman reclined on a rocking chair, a large white blanket covering her as she observed a young man busy himself around.White snowflakes fell like petals of a flower from the sky but thanks to a special barrier none of it entered the garden but instead drifted aimlessly around it, giving this sight a mesmerizing feeling.Sighing, the red-haired woman asked, "Why don't you let me help you, you know that I just discovered my pregnancy two months ago right? I still have between twelve to forty months before giving birth."At the end of the day, even though she looked like a human and had reproductive organs compatible with humans, she wasn't one. She was a dragon. A mythical creature mainly made out of energy rather than flesh.For the fetus to mature completely, it had to absorb her energy until saturation. The longer this went on, the more talented the baby would be. The problem was that during this period, the mother would be s

    (AN: Those events happen few days before the tournament.)Sol was currently resting in the church after having fled from the training with Lilith. He didn't mind being trained harshly, but he also needed to relax from time to time.“To think Sol fell asleep so soundly, that crazy Lilith must really be tiring him.”“Indeed. However, his sleeping face sure is cute…"While Sol was still in the middle of his dreams, two women entered his room, enjoying the sight of his sleeping face.One was Milia, his maid and the other was unsurprisingly Camelia. They were now sitting next to Sol, watching him as he sleeps.“Nevertheless, for him to not even wake up with two people so close to him. Perhaps Lilith isn't training him enough?""This isn't the case. I assure you that his highness senses are incredibly sharp. It's just that he doesn't consider us as a threat and as such his sense didn't wake him up.""Fufufu~! I see. In short, he felt at ease next to us."It was truly incredible to see a Mai

    "I see, so you are Setsuna."In a large room, a blue haired little girl could be seen standing in front of a blonde haired woman.'Incredible! So this is the daughter of Castitas. How powerful.'It wasn't the first time she had met someone at the level of a ruler. But compared to her father, or even her uncle, the woman sitting with a faint smile in front of her made all her instinct scream in submission. She had to give her all to not simply roll over and show her stomach.Seemingly noticing her discomfort, Camelia showed a smiled in apology before dispersing the silent pressure that was filling the room."I am sorry. Your father was someone I respected very much. Hearing about his potential demise is something truly sad and I lost control of my emotions."Setsuna lowered her head at the mention of her father. Her eyes reddened as she fought to hold back her tears. No matter how far she had fallen, she was still the princess. She refused to show such a disgraceful sight to a stranger
