Kaliara walked towards the building that the three brothers pointed out. Since Alexander left, she seemed to move to a more secure and cleaner area.
The buildings were no longer half destroyed or created with bent pieces of metal and makeshift stone and wood.
It was a complete home created with stone, a little small but better than everyone in the slums.
'Master didn't speak much about this woman, but each time he spoke, I felt his desire to make sure she was safe... Mentioning her sister being his cute priestess...'
[Doesn't it just mean he wants to fuck her?]
'Shut up, don't you just want to fuck him, have him dominate you again? Lewd demon slut.'
[Hmph... you are the one that masturbates to that memory...]
'!!!!'
Kaliara and Eien no longer treated each other like sworn enemies, maybe due to their souls being melded together or the effects of Alexander's infection.
But now they bickered like old women or friends; most topics revolved around Alex, but some were different.
'Master used to be a very lousy man, not caring for the women around him and only focusing on the ones he couldn't meet.'
[Really? The man who almost died for strangers as a dimensional mercenary?]
'Mmmm... He's changing for the better. Now he has feelings for a demon that killed his beloved woman and is thinking of ways to forgive and punish her simultaneously.'
[Hmmmm...]
'Can you not make our pussy wet because of your disgusting masochistic thoughts?'
'What if your idiocy rubs off on my soul, and Master thinks I'm a lewd and dirty girl?'
[Says the one that spent hours sniffing his exposed body and cock while sleeping...]
Bang!
Her red hand smashed the wall beside her in anger and embarrassment.
'You were awake...?!'
She thought Kaliara was sleeping at that moment, causing Eien to be flustered as the stone wall beside her crumbled into little specs of dust and debris.
[Don't worry... It's fine; we can be masochistic pets for him; why get so angry?]
'Eien has to be perfect, to make him love her most.'
[Why?]
'Otherwise, she will take his love from Eien, the love he holds for her is too much.'
[Who?]
'The mangy wolf that is now only a few miles away.'
The two moved forward, knocking on the door of Ayami, ignoring the stunned people who tried to avoid her.
Somehow Kaliara seemed to bypass the ability to cause harm and damage in the village. It could be due to their dual souls, or maybe her body is a demon.
The existence that counters the village completely.
However, what was important was the feeling that Eien now held towards the one that created her.
A sense of jealousy, anger and rivalry.
She didn't want to lose to anyone, not Amy, not Stella, not Sarah.
But she was just a sword before, so those feelings transformed into a bloodlust, making Alexander seem more aggressive and brainless early on.
'I did a bad thing to master...'
[(You call me strange and a masochist... But you are the obsessive sword that wants to be violated by her own master...)]
"Uhm... Excuse me, but who is there?" A gentle voice sounded from inside the locked door.
"Ah... Alexander sent me... Will you let me inside?"
"A-Alex!? Sure!" The apprehensive voice became more vibrant, like the mention of his name made her day.
'It seems she will be easier than I thought?'
[Another thot!]
Slowly the door opened with a loud creak; despite being better than the slums, it was still low-class.
Ayami's beautiful face with a vibrant glow greeted the huge demoness; for a moment, Ayami looked shocked, but her polite face returned, smiling at Kaliara before guiding her inside.
"Sorry that it's not much to look at."
The two walked into the main room, a small house with a kitchen, bathroom, living room and a bedroom.
Honestly, it was a luxury for most.
Kaliara sat down on the black sofa, her body almost too big and taking up two of the three seats, while Ayami knelt on a cushion in front of her, putting down a small pot of green colour tea into a cup.
"Do you want to drink?" She offered.
'Mmm, I always saw that mangy wolf drinking this pretentiously... Let's try it.'
[Hehe~ I love trying inferior lifeforms food and drink! They are so weak, yet so crafty and skilled!]
Kaliara picked up the cup, smelling the warm and calming scent of green tea, before taking a sip.
The bitter taste invaded her mouth, creating a small smile.
'So he was telling the truth about liking this drink.'
"I am here for two reasons; one is that it's too dangerous to stay here anymore, things have changed, and Alexander's plans were forced to be altered."
"Hmmm?" Ayami copied Kaliara, who sipped the tea; she was glad she seemed to enjoy it.
'She is so pretty... and kind.'
[Mmm... She is weak, like a human... So fragile.]
Kaliara felt her hand grip the cup tightly.
"The second is that Alexander is a target to some people; as we speak, he is trying to fix your problems and asked me to bring you to safety."
"Eh!? So soon?" Ayami gasped, thinking of the two still living in the slums.
[Why are you lying? He planned to make them suffer, but was it now?]
'I can bet my soul that he will use their weakness to trap them... Master studied his blood when in Sarian... He can delay the effects of the Vargeist and Banshee transformation to take longer...'
'He also mixed a part of the zombie infection with this potion... It's a horrific blend that should not exist.'
[He plans to give them the potion, which will heal them... then slowly they will become lifeless, mindless corpses?]
She finished her tea, placing it back onto the table with a light thud.
"Master gave me this for you; he said it would make you immune to the mind control that Chu Feng can perform; not only that, it will help you grow stronger should you choose to stay in this village a little longer."
"But please be aware; master wants to reunite you with Himari more than anything else..."
"I hope you can understand his heart... He doesn't speak much about feelings, but Master will never abandon you and always give you his love should you choose his side."
"Yes... I know... Thank you." Ayami looked down at the small potion, a small vial filled with a dark red liquid mixed with a white layer swirling slightly.
[You are crafty... Not mentioning all the other women vying for Master's love...]
'Master can love them all; he could deal with the Gula Warriors well.'
[Damn... is our Master a stud?]
'Mmm~ his cock is horse-like too, hehe~!'
Ayami didn't notice the strange look on Kaliara's face because she was absorbed in the vial in her hand, without even thinking or considering she remembered the handsome man that saved her sister and promised to help her.
She smiled gently, feeling warmth in her chest before popping the cork of the vial and downing the mixture in one gulp.
"Mmmph..... so delicious... oh...Nnn... My body feels so strange... Ugh....!"
A moment of fear passed by her face, thinking that she believed someone who lied and she drank poison, but the large hands of Kaliara grabbed her and gently carried her to the bedroom, placing her in bed and tucking her in.
"For a day, you will feel extreme fever and heat; then on the second day, you will feel extremely hungry... Once you pass that, you will be a changed woman and someone Master will cherish with all his heart."
"Mmmhgh.....!"
Ayami could only longer speak, only letting out inaudible groans and moaning. Her eyes, however, were filled with hope and gratitude for the large woman putting her worries at ease, she bit down her teeth and decided to endure this.
A man was willing to accept her despite her dirtied body and saved her sister and when did he ever ask for anything back? Even the coins to buy this place were from him...
Her face slowly began to fill with black and red veins, the potion she drank was 90% blood and 10% essence, the same potion used against the demon Kaliara which means its strength is enough to kill any normal human.
'Will she survive... Only time will tell.' As they left the hut, Eien locked the door and placed a demonic warding spell on the entrance and around the house.
[If she dies, won't Alexander hate us?]
'I would rather take the risk and have stronger warriors, than for him to suffer the pain of Sarian once again.'
[...]
[You're quite cool sometimes... big sis.]
'Shut up... Let's go, meet master... I want to be close enough to smell his scent and taste his delicious flavour.'
[Ah... ruined... just a pervert.]
The two walked away, leaving the sickly woman behind; Kaliara's thoughts were full of lust and hunger, a woman that would be loved and cared for, someone that could be protected.
It was a first for her, as a monster.
-
After Kaliara left, Alexander stayed in the same spot, staring at the horizon for a few minutes.
He wondered whether this was the right thing to do, but realised it was too far beyond that to care, in his hand were two potions that would cause agonising pain and create two hideous monsters, but the effect would be delayed.
The people who drank this mixture would become twisted Vargeists or decrepit Banshees.
'Let's just get it over with... That bastard tried to steal my women; then he would have fucked them, so let's destroy his ability to recover even with the strongest elixir from the church.'
[You are a cruel man... The poor guy won't even realise it was you.]
Ignoring the old man's voice that was strangely more effeminate recently, he walked towards the slums where Chu Feng and his bitch Nadia lived.
At first, he planned to let her live and save her like Ayami and Himari, but when Himari told him secretly, Nadia gave them the drugged water and caused them to fall into despair.
He lost all desire to help her.
Alexander walked with a spring in his step; inside his storage ring were the weapons to test, while McAlister would continue to forge for a few days before he would finish.
So he would return in two days to collect the rest, that was two days to spend with Stella, bond with his girls and make plans to move to the east and leave Lost Star City.
"I have lingered here far too long; I need to find my mother, Sarah and Amy... then head to where Stella's mother is... A place isolated in cold conditions... perfect for fighting the vulnerable undead.
