Chapter 96 96: Hard Working Gal's!
"Nmmm... soft..." Alexander began to awaken from his loss of consciousness, honestly because of the positive and vibrant feelings from all his Vesta, there was no stress or worry as he slowly started to move, burying his face deeper inside her velvety thick thighs of Himari as her lower body was warm and smelt incredibly lovely, like baked cherries.
'Thank god that my sense of smell changed on becoming a ghoul!' Alex shouted as he slowly lifted, the cold air immediately making him miss her soft body.
"Morning, Lord~ this Himari hopes her inferior thighs served as a good pillow!"
"They were perfect," Alex replied as he stroked her cute cheek with the palm of his hand, drawing the beautiful Himari's face closer; such a fantastic display of the eastern beauty as her eyes watched him flickering, making funny sounds from her mouth.
"Ah? Nyah.....mmmmph!?"
Alex decided to greet her with a morning kiss, the pain he felt from overusing his willpower and body with [Unbreakable Will] still causing his mind to feel a sense of fear, hoping that he rarely had to use it that far again.
While enjoying the soft red lips of Himari, his ears began to adjust to the area; in the short distance, there was some shouting and arguing coming from several humans in a large group, while Althea waved her fists, and Maria seemed to be shouting back copying her as their sheer power scared the leading humans.
'Ah... don't test my patience the moment I wake up...'
"I'd rather spend time playing with my cute Oni priestess and her delicious thighs," Alexander whispered beside Himari's ears, as she seemed to be in a daze from his kiss before turning bright red and shuddering as she looked at him with wet eyes.
Alex pretending to be innocent, gave her a soft smile while sliding his hands along her inner thighs, noticing this girl's reaction was amusing.
Despite her past, she was like a cute virgin, although technically, she was a virgin after being reborn.
'It's a good thing I'm not one of those stupid virgin-loving idiots... I mean, once all these girls evolve, don't I get their first time as a ghoul anyway? Hahaha~ shit... they don't all love me though, so that's a work in progress...'
Since he evolved to stage 2 and picked the Dominata path, Alex felt a little more romantic and combative; he wanted to fight the females, train them to be stronger, crush all enemies, fight Valuleala and beat her at full strength.
Though thankfully his lust didn't increase like those two feelings, he was more concerned with making his Vesta happy, allowing them to live without the troubles from their past lives and make a pathway for them to dream of a new future.
"Himari?"
"Mmmmn yesh!?"
Himari was currently a little strange; the priestess of ghouls seemed to be lewder than Alex thought as she had grasped his hand, bringing it inside her silk panties, brushing herself along his new, thicker and more powerful fingers with her sneaky but agile hip movements.
"Such lewd girls will be punished later!" He laughed jokingly, sliding along to get a good feel of her silky passage before pulling away and kissing her cheek as he jumped to his feet with a light sigh and a loud crack of his body.
"Hehe, punishment... I will await my Lord's thick and heavy punishment!" Himari replied with a vixen remark, her body standing with a graceful and silent movement.
Alex noticed that whenever he teased or flirted with Himari, her horn would shimmer, especially when he called her beautiful, like a dark red night light.
"Come, my lovely priestess, let's see the commotion!"
He extended his large hand, grasping the cute oni's shy fingers and pulled her along, a bright red light flashing behind him as her little head rested against his upper arm, unable to reach his shoulder.
The area was a mess, with broken concrete, destroyed storefronts, and zombie corpses with broken weapons littered inside or on the ground, bent, blunted or shattered.
Vesta were all huddled in a group--some were injured or carrying makeshift crutches and bandaged bodies, causing Alexander to give each of them a soft hug as he passed by some he didn't know their names or personalities well but made sure to use [Eagle Eyes] and burned those names into his mind and heart.
While he was down and out, these girls fought thousands, if not tens of thousands, of corpses, something he should never have asked them.
'Let's allow them to feast on my flesh over the next week as a reward.'
The knowledge that entered Alexander's mind upon reaching stage 2 told him that other ghouls existed in the distant past, in various worlds but were destroyed or hunted to the end, leaving little to no knowledge of their race or how they were created.
He also learned that a sire allowing his ghouls to savour his flesh was one of the most splendid rewards that could be given, be it a glass of his blood or meat directly from his body.
'A little grim, but for some reason, I no longer find it disgusting...'
At first, his human side was sleeping on several occasions, he let the Vesta eat his flesh and blood, but once it awakened, Alex found it a little disgusting and tried to avoid it but now subtle changes began to form in his mind and attitude.
His steps were slow; the argument wasn't too heated yet that they might exchange blows because Alex wanted to ensure no deaths had occurred. Although his bond with all the girls seemed stronger for some reason since checking earlier in the morning, there was always the chance one might have died without his notice.
"Laura," his voice was more charming and magnetic to the ghouls like Megan, Patricia and Himari. It didn't matter as they were completely smitten by the man who saved them from oblivion and accepted them all at the lowest moment in their lives.
"A-Alexander! You... Are you okay!?" She darted over, her elven head now only up to his chest like Himari; as she noticed his scent and aura were different, she could feel nostalgic when meeting her kin.
"Ah, sorry, I used your wonderful jacket to keep Althea warm."
"Who cares! You're still wearing the rest...was it okay? The note.... you... read it? Don't feel pressured... to accept my feelings and words..."
Her body began to fidget as she bit her lower lip, those cute elven ears flopping around with her mood changes like a strange giveaway of her true feelings.
Alex placed his hand atop her head, showing a warm smile, and his elven ears shifted similarly to others. This exchange meant nothing but to elves; the moments of his ears and expression conveyed that there was no rush--let's take our time and walk forward together slowly, hand in hand.
"!!!" She now realised why she felt so different and not just connected to him via their ghoul bloodline, her eyes like blue gems glistening in the sunlight as she showed a beautiful smile and began to laugh to herself, hugging Alex tightly.
'Mmm... Elf girls are so soft and spongy....'
He didn't linger long after learning from Laura that no girls were killed, but a few lost limbs or some organs--Laura didn't know how ghouls as a race worked properly and thus asked Alex to look at them later on and see.
"Ah, Lord, you are there!" Megan's soft and husky voice sounded as she carried a jacket in her hands--for some reason, the dress that Lapis and Ruby wore was on her body, with a pair of black stockings.
'Does she also have that engravement now?'
"Here!" She began to help wipe off his body before putting on the black shirt, fastening the buttons slowly as she began to sniff his chest, her eyes closed tight like she was lost in a dream or something.
'Did I make her into a pervert with a scent fetish!?' Alex wondered.
"Mmmm, all good!"
Patricia came from behind as he was about to move away, her hand with a strange black brush and lovely red rose on the handle, as she began to brush his long hair, her warm breath and chest pressing against his back as the smooth lamia tail coiled around his lower body likely subconsciously.
"Your scales look lovely in this sunlight, Patricia."
"Hueh? Really... I was a little shy... but you needed me... So I came.."
"Don't worry; you are the most beautiful when smiling, so don't feel inferior."
"Mmmmn!"
After the three girls pampered him, Himari was never jealous of any of the Vesta that approached or had physical contact with him--she merely released his hand. Then waited, only grasping his hand again the moment they separated.
Now a tiny following began to trail behind him, their hearts feeling wonderous after he was so gentle, remembering their names and giving them all unique and personal encouragement.
Apart from the injured and 10 or so Vesta with Maria and Althea, 12 were following Alexander as he held Himari's hand, with Megan and Patricia to his right; the group was both beautiful and macabre, their pale skin, dark eyes with gleaming red iris caused them to look eerie like out of a horror fashion book.
But their beauty was undeniable!
"You stupid bitch! This is a huge shopping mall; we've been in the area since the start trying to settle here--why can't we enter now it's empty!"
"Hmmm?" Alex hummed, hearing the foul language and narrowing his gleaming red eyes.
