Chapter 757: Mirrory Spills one of Tatyana's Secrets.
Yasenia and the others moved to an open room by the garden, and soon, all the other girls also gathered here, with a few of the maids formally waiting at the sides.
It took a while for Kali and Cecile to arrive, so until they came, they chatted about everyday things. The Fox and Phoenix arrived with refreshed looks, taking a seat in the free spaces. Valeria materialized, laying sideways behind Kali, allowing the fox woman to use her body as a backrest.
Evelyn was slowly sewing a beautiful golden and purple dress for Kaleina when she asked. "So, what's up with those races? Where did they suddenly pop from, and why? Was there a Secret Realm opening again?"
Kali took the cup of medicinal tea that Flora served, thanked her, and commented after taking a sip. "It shouldn't be right. They are all very powerful. I think that each group had at least two Peak-level Fifth Realm cultivators." She looked at Flora, asking for confirmation. The Dryad nodded and smiled. "You are right, Kali. Each group had at least two peak-level Fifth Realm cultivators. The strongest group was the Spirits, with all of them but the Spirit that approached Young Miss being peak level."
Cecile lifted an eyebrow. "All of them?"
Flora nodded. "That's right. They are quite a dangerous group. Spirits can be as strong as dragons at the same level."
Yasenia and Kaleina snorted at the same time, disagreeing, which made the others burst into laughter.
Angel sat on Yasenia's right side, playing with the dragoness's tail. "But That Soluna was strange." Then, she pouted while swinging her tail back and forth. "I didn't like the way she looked at Yasenia. I really wanted to to to do something!"
The girls looked at how Angel strangled the tail, clearly thinking of it as if it were Soluna, and laughed. Andrea added. "What blew me away were her eyes."
The girls didn't disagree, and Kali added. "It's really rare for the pupils of creatures to gain such rare shapes, a Sun on her right eye and a Moon on her left eye. It's clear that the spirit and Yasenia must have many things in common."
Tatyana, sitting on Yasenia's left, asked Yasenia. "What do you think about her, Little Treasure?"
Yasenia tilted her head and didn't hide her feelings. "I felt strangely close to her? There was a strange resonance between us, and when she looked at me, I couldn't help but have a good impression. I even patted her head even before I could realize what I was doing as if it were something natural to do."
The girls got silent as they looked at Yasenia's thoughtful face.
Evelyn asked playfully. "Has the exception you spoke about in the past appeared?"
The other girls glared at Evelyn, making her hiccup.
Cecile muttered. "Shall I kill her?"
Evelyn stuttered. "I-It was a joke. Don't look at me like that" Evelyn's eye twitched and begged tearfully at the particularly intense red gaze. "Tatyana, please. I was joking!"
Tatyana hummed. "Should I follow Cecile's advice?"
Evelyn silently asked for forgiveness in her head. 'Sorry, spirit, I've placed a target on your back without realizing.'
Yasenia laughed. "Whether she is an exception or not, I don't care. Remember that if any of you even feel slightly disagreeable, nothing will ever happen."
Cecile asked resentfully. "So, if we all agree, there are no problems?"
Yasenia looked at her strangely. "Sweetheart, that 'all' includes you."
Cecile snorted, crossing her arms and looking sideways. "Then, I'll need to be bewitched to agree to something like that."
The dragoness's lips twitched as she held back her laughter. 'So cute.'
Andrea commented. "Still, she is a spirit, so she shouldn't have normal reproductive necessities, no? Wouldn't it be impossible for romantic love to sprout between Yasenia and her?"
Evelyn asked, thoughtful. "So Spirit don't fuck?"
The girls around had their lips twitching at her bluntness. Tatyana commented. "Well, they do."
Evelyn tilted her head. "How do you know" Evelyn looked at Tatyana, who smiled at her for a few seconds and coughed. " You know what, don't answer. I feel that I'm not prepared to hear the reason you know about it."
Tatyana was about to laugh, but the arm wound around her waist tightened. She blinked and looked sideways, meeting with a pair of intense golden eyes. Tatyana coughed. "Little treasure, I've been alive for too long. Moreover, I've lived quite a warped life."
Mirrory added. "That's right. How would you develop that intent otherwise."
Angel blinked. "Which one?"
Time stopped as Yasenia and Tatyana were sucked into Tatyana's inner world. Yasenia opened her eyes and saw a world that was black and red.
The sky, dark as a starless night, had two bright red suns illuminating her surroundings. Feeling a sticky liquid touching her up to her thighs, Yasenia looked down and saw blood. A thigh-deep ocean of blood that extended beyond the limits of her gaze.
Moreover, in this ocean, countless corpses were floating about. Some were faceless, others had terrified faces that seemed to have frozen before their death, and others had missing limbs, flesh chunks, or things like eyes, noses, or even heads.
Moreover, the blood ocean was not still, as it sometimes grabbed one of those corpses and crushed it as it devoured it.
The terrifying sight and sound of a human being crushed like a paper ball by the blood ocean as the organs spilled around was something that would make most creatures nauseated.
Yasenia looked at everything calmly, and her eyes locked in the distance. Both red Suns in the Sky pointed at that place with a ghostly green light like two spotlights telling Yasenia where to go.
'Mom.'
With an unhesitating attitude, the dragoness stepped forward in that direction, her tail moving from side to side to help her move in the thigh-deep, thick, bloody ocean.
**********************************************************
Andrea: What will happen?
Kali: I'm intrigued.
Angel: Mommy Tatyana was so cute!
Author: Today, let's answer a few questions I've had in the past. It's a relatively long Celestial Theater! I summon you!
Randomplant: Hello!
Kali: Well, ask away.
Randomplant: Right, here are the questions.
Randomplant: What are the most common and least common methods that cultivators of transcendental level and above use to increase the possibility of having children with a partner if they are having problems?
Valeria: That would be alchemy products to induce ovulation and Dual Cultivation products to increase the affinity between the two people aiming for a child. The reason it is difficult to form a child is the sperm cells not being able to pierce the ovaries or the ovaries are too weak and being eaten by the sperm cells. Other than that, the compatibility of Yin and Yang is difficult to achieve, so even if a sperm cell succeeds in combination with the ovaries, the result could be a dead zygote.
Randomplant: Interesting, second question! Once you reach the transcendental level, do you plan to try to explore other worlds? This one is for the girls.
Andrea: I think I speak for everybody that we will take things slowly. Exploring the World can be done together, so unless there is a need to go on a journey, we probably won't separate in a short time.
Randomplant: I see. Third Question. How does the core given to young beasts to increase their potential differ from normal cores? I'm talking about cores like the one Tatyana had prepared for Yasenia. And the one that was given to Laurina.
Mirrory: Those cores are reinforced with many techniques and alchemy resources to be purer and target, not the strength of the core but the potential. This potential can be realized much later, so feeding it during childhood is unnecessary. Tatyana didn't give Yasenia one because of Yasenia's lack of beast core in the past.
Randomplant: Makes sense. Last question! What is the probability that Yasenia, at the Transcendental Realm, will attract powerful cultivators to be her companions?
And how likely is it that they will try to use force or Shenanigans to get her? Even if they know that Yasenia is loyal to her wives.
Everyone: 100%
Randomplant: Really?
Kali: You might not realize it, but the higher a person goes in strength, the more "selfish" they become. Even Yasenia shows this trait with her "I will follow the rules until I'm strong enough to follow my rules" sentence she usually says.
Kali: If strong cultivators that were considered "young masters" eye something they like, more often than not, they will take it by force. Low-level cultivators are indeed arrogant by using their seniors as backers, but high-level cultivators are arrogant and use their own strength.
Kali: The stronger you become, if you want to remain safe, the more cautious you need to be.
Randomplant: Yikes.
Author: And that's all for today! See you tomorrow~.
