Chapter 329 : A Phoenix

Chapter 329 : A Phoenix

“What happened?” Alex asked as soon as Victor came out. She only heard screaming from the inside, but she couldn’t make out the words.

“Nothing… That cock is being unreasonable… it thinks that you are female?” Victor said, shaking his head. “I know that you are a little wimpy, but a female? impossible…”

“Ah…. Why?” Alex had no idea how to respond.

“That’s absurd! If you were a female, I would have slept with you long ago!” Victor said. Making her blush. “Then I would have sold you to the highest bidder for hiding the truth from me!” he added, making her swallow the words she wanted to say.

“Now what?” she asked.

“The stupid cock… Thinking that you are a female, it produced a bloodline-enhancing pill for you!” Victor said with a disturbed look. “I can’t believe you managed to fool it, while I couldn’t without Lily’s help…”

“Oh… A pill?”

“Yes… It pecked your hand right?” Victor said, pointing at Alex’s injured hand. “It took your blood and gave you this pill in return as it did with the rest of the girls…. How the hell did you fool it?” Victor asked, raising the red pill.

“Ah… I am not sure…”

“If I didn’t know better, I would have believed that cock that you are secretly a female. That stupid thing even thinks that you are a virgin! How absurd! I saw it myself how you fucked the brothel girls in Golden Waterfall town… You can’t be a virgin!” Victor nodded to himself. “I think your bloodline has some power that is affecting its perception!”

“Probably….” Alex nodded.

“Now come…” Victor said, dragging Alex to a side room and then closing the door. “Eat this quickly so that we can upgrade your bloodline… “ he said, pushing the pill into her mouth before she could resist. “Swallow!” he ordered.

Alex stepped back as she felt the pill melt in her mouth. She swallowed.

Then all hell broke loose.

…

“Damn it!” Theta yelled as she put the binoculars in her hands down and then threw herself on her back on the bed and began to kick the imaginary Victor with her delicate bare feet.

“Relax Robin… He already promised to marry you once you are old enough!” Ruby, who was sitting by her side, said, feeling a little jealous. She felt inferior to her friend who didn’t have to lose her virginity in a brothel.

“I know… But he married that damn Elise! She is as old as me!” Theta said. “Hateful Victor…”

“You know that it was a political marriage…” Ruby said. “He wouldn’t touch her…”

“How do you know that!” Theta said as she sat up, took the binoculars again, and began to inspect the sealed mansion from the window. She could see nothing from the inside, but she felt the need to keep an eye on them.

Yesterday, she watched as the frustrated girls had tea on the balcony, and Elise was not with them! Was she with the young master?

“Relax! The lock will end tomorrow! We can ask the twins about it then… They would never lie!“ Ruby said reassuring her friend then frowned as she looked out. The morning sky which was clear until moments ago began to get cloudy. It only took moments for the sunny day to become dark.

Thunder began to rumble from in between the thick clouds and several streaks of lightning began to dart around as if preparing to descend.

Was this a storm?

Why did it feel ominous?

…

After taking the red pill, Alex only felt something break inside of her as everything turned black.

As she fainted, a shock-wave broke from her body sending everything in the room flying, including Victor, who was thrown away to hit the wall behind him.

Alex, who lost consciousness, began to float in midair as her body began to shine with a yellow bright light. It kept shining stronger and brighter, making the room heat up as if Alex was the sun.

Around the walls of the room, immediately golden lines began to shine, locking the room’s space. Every room in the basement had those installed by Victor, who wanted to keep what was happening down here a secret.

“Shit!” Victor cursed as he sprung to his feet then ran to Alex’s side, grabbing the gender-changing and the storage rings from her fingers before he was blasted away again.

He could only put his back to the wall and watch as the room turned into an inferno.

Without a way out, the heat in the room began to build up and in a few seconds made it hotter and hotter like the insides of a reactor. Victor, who didn’t expect this sudden outburst, almost fainted. He had to cast a dozen isolation talismans and use all his skills to be able to remain in the room.

Although he could escape at any time using his shadow-shifting skill, he knew that he had to stay here to watch for Alex in case something bad happened to her. He also had to keep ready to cast some more isolation talismans in case the old ones collapsed.

The heat of the room kept getting higher, melting everything around and charring all the wooden furniture black, a sign that all the oxygen in the room had already been exhausted. Even the clothes on Victor began to slowly disintegrate!

Victor cursed silently then he raised his head and let out a roar activating his bloodline to its full extent to apply its effects.

In seconds, his silky purple hair turned grayish white with a few dark black locks going like snakes in between the white ones. If someone looked close he would notice that those locks had a strange air shimmering around them, like the space itself would break if it touched them.

His eyes turned abyssal black with an entire universe reflected in them. His pupils were like molten gold, piercing through whatever he looked at.

On his now shimmering skin, numerous strange signs began to appear forming an interlaced mesh, resembling the scales on a dragon as they slowly took shape, forming an ethereal exoskeleton around him, giving him long claws and dark black wings that didn’t resemble any other creature.

From his forehead, two long barbed horns slowly grew up, reaching a few feet above his head. Unlike the fake ones he uses when he disguises as the Nutcracker, those two were original. They had the power to break space itself.

With his bloodline fully activated, all his status and attributes doubled. All his skills strengthened.

Heat no longer bothered Victor as he stood there, like a real noble demon looking at Alex as her body slowly burnt and from inside a flame that resembled a phoenix began to take shape.

The tattoo that Margret drew didn’t burn, it slowly formed a protective shell around the newly born phoenix that completed itself in seconds and then it uttered a loud cry as it began to disintegrate leaving one drop of blood that slowly began to form a new Phoenix of flames. A white one this time.

Suddenly the process stopped and the white newly emerged flames began to wane!

Victor frowned, something was wrong. that Phoenix had not enough energy for a rebirth!

Without waiting Victor quickly dumped a heap of gems on the floor, which began to disintegrate in seconds, forming a vortex of energy that quickly began heading toward the white phoenix.

It slowly began to grow up again, but Victor didn’t relax as he felt the world around him begin to solidify. A feeling that he only felt once before, when he activated the time book.

It was either that someone was trying to barge into this world, or the world itself was starting to reject Alex…. It could be both!

Victor could feel a tribulation vortex forming around him!

“Damn it!” Victor cursed. Then without hesitation, he bit his finger and let a drop of his own now golden blood travel to that white phoenix and merge with it as he activated his blood slave connection to Alex to its full extent.

Earlier, he felt that his old bond began to disintegrate, so he reinforced it immediately.

This would have been impossible usually, but with the world’s will helping Victor against Alex, it was done immediately, and the forming tribulation quickly dissipated.

A summoned or a contracted creature was allowed in this world after all.

The white phoenix, feeling the world’s will no longer resisting it, began to slowly expand until it filled the room, burning the tattoo array completely with everything in its way. Then it quickly contracted again, forming the body of a delicate gorgeous girl with long flowing golden hair.

“Damn it… This was a close call… “ Victor said. “She is hot…” he couldn’t help but add before frowning as he felt the world solidify again. They were here!

He quickly ran to Alex’s side, holding her and slowly lowering her to the floor as the flame around the room got fully absorbed by her.

A few notification panels appeared in succession in front of Victor, notifying him of some status and class changes with Alex. He was her master after all.

Looking at her status Victor almost screamed in shock.

Wow… She was truly a phoenix. No wonder she had a human body, all creatures with the Noble word in their species names have the power to turn into humans or humanoid creatures… In fact, their main form becomes human. Alex was definitely from some royal family!

But damn it… Her dark scion fate didn’t go away! Why? He had no idea!

Victor sighed. It seemed like he had to keep bullying her for now, until he figured out a way to remove her stupid destiny at least.

Having no other choice, Victor quickly placed her rings back into her fingers and watched her turn into a gorgeous man just as the sound of something breaking rang above his head.

Victor cursed silently.

With Alex’s blood lock breaking, they must have found this place and come to get her.

But were they friends or foes?

Victor didn’t care. Those who dared to break into his house are destined to suffer! Alex was already his, and he would never let others take her.

Like shattered glass, a hole near the ceiling seemed to have opened, and from beyond a golden bird slowly crept in, raising the room’s temperature again.

It took it only seconds to fully enter the room and for Victor to quickly appraise it.

“Shit…” Victor said as he began feeling the temperature rise again. He had to get rid of this one before she tried to leave or else she would burn the entire mansion. The upper floors were not as reinforced as the basement.

The phoenix looked with a frown around the room. Trying to sense the signal they received. But she couldn’t see anyone, the room was empty.

It frowned, then from the back, it felt some ripples of energy… familiar energy!

It quickly passed through the wall, melting a hole in its path until she reached the room with the cages.

There, inside one of the cages, there was a pretty naked girl who collapsed on the floor with a familiar air around her.

“FOUND YOU!” the phoenix said as it revealed its sharp talons, attacking the helpless girl that was cut into minced meat in seconds.

Something was wrong… It tried to turn to look back, but it was too late because, at that same moment, it felt severe pain in its butt as if someone plucked all of its noble tail’s feathers.

“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” The phoenix screamed in pain and threw an attack to the back before turning to see the cock that was retreating to the back with a group of red burning feathers in its beak.

“DAVITOTHAK! You despicable chicken!” the phoenix screamed angrily. “How dare you…” It wanted to use its firestorm skill to burn everything but stopped as it felt a grave sense of danger approaching. It was an ominous silver needle that appeared out of nowhere and was heading for its head.

The phoenix cursed and instinctively used its swift step skill to get away… This was a mistake. Although it managed to dodge the needle, all around it the world began to solidify. Using this S-ranked skill has alerted the world of its existence! Now the hole she came from would close and this clone would die!

“DAMN IT!” It cursed and then quickly traveled back to where it came from. The hole still had some time before it fully closed, so It decided it had some time and activated its heavenly eyes skill, trying to find its location before leaving to send reinforcements later.

This was a mistake, as at this moment three needles penetrated its body… They were completely ineffective as they melted by its flaming feathers before they could touch its skin.

The phoenix cursed… This was just normal steel! It was fooled. Damn it! The needles failed to hurt it, but they forced it to cancel its skill and turn around to look at its enemy… It was a tall demon looking at her with a smirk.

The phoenix frowned then felt it as another needle penetrated her at that same moment… This time it went through its butt where the cock had already plucked all the feathers… It went straight in!

The Phenix screamed in pain, turning into a green goo as the only exit, the ethereal hole behind her closed by the world’s rules.

Everything returned to being peaceful a moment later. If it were not for the burnt room and the melting wall, no one would know that another worldly being had died here a most gruesome death!

“What a waste…” Victor said as he collected the green goo and then looked at the fainted Alex who was leaning against the wall in the corner. She got her hair back, and it was long this time…

“It seems like your family hates you too…” he said feeling sorry for her. “Well… You are mine now…” he whispered then turned around and left the room.

It Would take Alex a few hours to wake up. And Victor decided not to be here when that happened. It was not time yet to reveal her truth.

After heading to the cage room, Victor found the cock waiting for him with a cocky smile.

“Did you get it?” Victor asked with a smirk.

“KWA!” the cock nodded then spat a few feathers at Victor. “KWwww,” it said, meaning this was Victor’s share.

“Thanks, pal… I wouldn’t have been able to slay it easily without your help!” Victor said, inspecting the phoenix feathers. These things can be used to create some very good Elixirs.

“Kwwww!” the cock nodded.

“Remember… After returning to your world, don’t tell anyone what you did…” Victor said as he collected the feathers in his ring and left the room.

“Kwi Wa!” the cock said. It was not a foolish cock. And it didn’t have a death wish.
