Chapter 662: Sarah's adventure in the secret realm.
Meanwhile, Sarah and her harem had just defeated a powerful third-level Legendary Core giant elephant.
The beast that was like a small mountain fell, covered with deep wounds and many different elements.
Sarah breathed roughly and looked at the girls. "Anybody heavily wounded?"
A petite, dark-brown-haired woman rushed toward Sarah with a worried expression. "What about you? You were hit squarely by its trunk one time."
Sarah smiled, slowly catching her breath. "I'm already recovered."
Harmony, a woman with white wings on her back and from an avian race, spoke softly. "Sarah, why were you so eager to catch this beast? Can we even keep it in our ring?"
Sarah looked at the small-mountain-sized beast and frowned.
'System, have I unlocked enough space in the inventory?'
[Host. You need to convert the other three beasts to points if you want to store the <Pillar War Elephant> in the inventory.]
'Do so, with this thing, getting enough resources to become independent should not be too hard.'
[Host. Why are you trying to become independent?]
Sarah bit her lower lip. 'Being near Yasenia is too burdensome. Moreover, it feels like no matter what I do, I can't even make her heart flinch.'
[Host. Are you still upset at that time when Harmony and Lena lost affection toward you because of Yasenia? I can feel that this decision is too emotional and based on pride-.]
Sarah frowned. 'Shut up. Also, how are preparations against that red-eyed woman?'
[Host. I've scanned her attack methods. I should be able to defend myself. However, you yourself are not immune to her strength. The formation she showed in the past is something only a <Holy Rank Formation Master> can do.]
Sarah searched in the shop, and her mouth twitched.
<Holy 17 Grade Formation Book: billion points.>
'You are telling me that I need to capture 1,000 people of Coraline's level to get to buy the book.'
[Incorrect. You need 850 people of Coraline level.]
Sarah rolled her eyes. 'Is that formation strength related to combat? Her soul attacks were strong, but how would I fare in a battle while protecting my soul?'
[Host. I can't calculate something like that. But I would recommend trying not to antagonize her. Only people that have souls above Transcendence Realm should be able to see my System Core at your current level.]
Sarah pondered. 'What level do I need to reach before I can be safe?'
[Host. If you reach Dantian Spiritualization, it should be fine. However, after reaching Transcendence, you unlock many new features that will help you become stronger much quicker. At that moment, not many people will be able to follow your strengthening speed.]
'What about my harem?'
[Host. It will cost too many points even if you want them to keep up. Your harem is still tiny, and they are already slowing you down. I recommend focusing on capturing higher-level people as your level increases. The CHARM attribute has been increased by many points, and your attractiveness is incomparable to before. Moreover, you've unlocked many rare perks that increase the goodwill of people you come in contact with or touch.]
Sarah became a bit bewildered. 'To what extent will those abilities grow?'
[Host. The limits of these abilities are enough to make a Goddess or God fall to their knees with a single caress.]
Sarah's lips arched in a wry smile. 'That sounds exaggerated.'
Dorian, a flat girl with horizontal pupils, green patches of skin, and webbed fingers, spoke, hugging her arm. "Sarah, have you calculated the space?"
Sarah nodded and manipulated the system.
[Ding! <Stone Crushing Tiger> redeemed. 12,000 Points.]
[Ding! <Gale Swimmer Hawk> redeemed. 7,000 Points.]
[Ding! <Deep Forest Snake> redeemed. 8,500 Points.]
[Ding! <Pillar War Elephant> Stored in inventory. Inventory capacity at 89%]
Sarah smiled. 'Hunting beasts is quite an efficient way to gain points.'
[Host. It might be quicker for now. Yet, intercourse and capturing are more reliable and have a constant stream of points. In the long run, points from harem members will be much more abundant.]
'Hm. I agree. Moreover, capturing these things is quite tiring and tedious. I'd rather snuggle in bed with my harem.'
A tall, heroic-looking woman with brown hair and pale skin asked. "Why are we going this way, Sarah? You were quite eager to fight this creature."
Sarah's eyes rolled a bit, and she answered. "Soraia... Well, the direction, I chose it at random. But when I saw this elephant, I could feel the aura of a powerful treasure nearby. It is probably guarded by it, so I decided to kill it so that we can search in peace."
Lillian hugged her from the back, pressing her large breasts on her back, and bit her ear. "As expected of my love~."
Sarah blushed. "Lillian, stop it."
Lana, the beast human dragon princess, stared around and asked. "A powerful treasure? Where?"
Sarah saw her innocent expression, and her core burned. A tall, voluptuous woman with an innocent personality was a fantastical person that she knew could only exist in this world. It was too attractive for her.
She hugged Lana, kissed her neck, and smiled. "We are going in that direction. We should find it soon."
Lana smiled sweetly. Then, she asked. "Right. Will it help your beast bloodline, Sarah?"
Sarah stiffened for a second, and then she shook her head. "No. It should be for everyone."
[Cultivation Level...]
[Attributes...]
[Affection: Sarah (89 Points), Y@sen#a Dr@vo%y (50 Points),...]
Sarah frowned and checked the other lovers; all of them had at least 40 affection points except Lillian, who had -60 Points. 'She hasn't even talked to them...'
Lillian spoke. "Why should we? If that woman found something like this, she probably would not tell us. We have no obligation to tell her anything."
Sarah opened her mouth but decided not to speak against her. "Good. Then, let's continue."
[Ding! Lana's affection has dropped 1 point.]
[Ding! Paledora's affection has dropped 2 points.]
[Ding! Astarea's affection has dropped 1 point.]
[Ding! Soraia's affection has dropped 2 Points.]
[Ding! Lea's affection has dropped 1 point.]
Sarah stiffened for a second but decided to ignore it, feeling somewhat resentful.
'A single point won't make much of a difference, anyway. It will probably come back naturally.'
If a pop up would appear about Sarah, it would probably go like this.
[Ding! Sarah's affection toward Yasenia has dropped 5 Points.]
*************************************************************
Tatyana: This is getting interesting!
Andrea: They are stronger than I thought.
Mirrory: The distance between a level three and level five Legendary Core beast is much larger than you think. However, to kill a third-level Legendary Core beast, they certainly need a minimum level of strength that can be considered respectable.
Yasenia: Say... Why is she resentful of me? I've done nothing to her, no?
Evelyn: Imagine us taking sides with someone that's not you and going against your opinion... Hm... you would probably not mind as long as it is reasonable, right? I can't use that as an example.
Yasenia: I mean, if you are right, why would I be upset? You, dears, know that I love it when you present your own ideas. I would only be sad if you defended someone against me regardless of reason.
Evelyn: Right, that's why I changed my words, hahaha.
Andrea: Can't argue with that.
Author: Hmm... Today, who comes? I summon you!
WPOmega: Hello!
Kali: Welcome back.
WPOmega: So, Mirrory, could you defeat Tatyana in bed? I ask because Mirrory, you're the only other person tho paired with your previous master, who has told the heavens to go fuck themselves and done damage, and since you two seem to compete in every other way, I was curious.
Mirrory: Of course. I would make her cry for the heavens in a minute.
Tatyana: Ho, ho~. What do I hear? An eon-old virgin speaking about making me cry in bed?
Mirrory: Even if I have no experience, could you resist me? Tatyana, don't be stupid.
Tatyana: It's a shame you didn't appear one hundred years earlier, or I would've proved you otherwise.
Mirrory: Hmph. You are too arrogant. You know that I'm on another completely different level compared to you, right? A sneeze from my strongest self is enough to scatter your body into tiny particles!
Tatyana: What does strength have to do with anything? At the same level, I haven't lost in bed for millennia! Do you want to-
Yasenia: Mom~?
Tatyana: ...
Tatyana: C-Cough. Yes, little treasure? Why do you sound so scary?
Yasenia: Scary? Fufufu~. We will never know what will happen because you will never do anything like that... right?
Tatyana: Why do your eyes look like whirlpools of dangerous obsession-
Yasenia: Right?
Tatyana: Y-Yes.
Yasenia: That's what I like to hear. WPOmega.
WPOmega: Y-Yes, Ma'am!
Yasenia: No more for today.
WPOmega: Yes, Ma'am!
Author: Cough. And that's all for today.
