Qilana was oblivious as Zilna watched on from the side.

The blue radiance of Saphira began to pulsate, just the same as the books said, causing the young knight to feel a sense of jealousy towards the princess and Alexander.

'Why is the princess kissing him? Surely there were other ways...!'

In the background, the Militia began to jeer and gossip as Alexanders' arms wrapped around the soft body of the princess.

While Zilna's chest became filled with frustration, and a sense of longing started to overflow her desire to hold back.

-

Alexander felt like he was floating peacefully in a freezing water pool.

He didn't need to fight or stand up against his enemies; there was no need to resist an unstoppable fate, just the soft waves of the water that began to warm the more he stopped revisiting the waves.

The throbbing pain in his body, his burning muscles began to heal, no longer causing him to wish he was dead.

'It feels great...'

'So comfortable.'

Suddenly something delicious entered his mouth; it was soft and warm, so he began to suck on the squishy sensation; the more he sucked and teased it with his tongue, the wilder it became and matched him, filling his mouth with more of the sweet taste.

While he was at peace just floating on the surface of the water, something grasped his waist firmly, pulling him out of the water; at first, he wanted to resist, leaving the comfort of the water and making him feel agitated. Still, he felt soothed by the soft sensation that touched his lips as his body slowly moved towards the distant light.

'I can feel something...'

'It's not my feelings... nor thoughts...'

There was someone else here...

A figure appeared before his eyes slowly; her soft brown skin and beautiful silver eyes began to light the world as if she became his moonlight.

"Mmmnph~!"

Alexander now realised what the sensation was as she wrapped her arms around his back, her soft lips kissing him, as she sucked on his mouth with an enraptured expression, the feelings inside her chest pouring into him.

Her lust, despair, hope and joy that he survived.

She wanted him to help her but didn't want him to die.

The conflicting and solitary thoughts caused his arms to subconsciously wrapped around her back, those silver orbs widening as she bit his lower lip in response, pulling it back as her eyes gave a more alluring and lustful glint.

He wanted her to rely on him; this woman's feelings were much like his own; she knew the truth of her kingdom and his world.

Time slowly passed in this quiet world of the two, both of them sinking deeper into the blue ocean; originally, it was a pool; however, as they kissed and became connected, as if the goddess Saphira desired, the entire dark world was now filled with gently swaying blue water.

Quietly, in serenity and peace.

Qilana and Alexander melded together.

Was it years, decades, maybe millennia that they were entangled together?

The sense of time became vague as they began melding together.

It became hard to tell where Alexander ended, and Qilana began too tricky; now able to sense each other's desire with a simple thought or even a slight intent, they would understand the other's needs.

She could see his past, feelings and desires, dreams, the moments he spent with his women, the growth he experienced and the truth she might never be his number one, despite him already burying his existence in the depths of her heart.

Their connection was one of the souls, not just their bodies.

-

Meanwhile, a soft tear dripped down the cheek of Qilana as their kiss slowly ended; after more than 5 minutes of being enraptured with each other, the knights could finally sigh as the blue light began to fade from their bodies.

Alexander's eyes slowly flickered as he felt a strange energy inside his body; although new, it felt like an old friend.

The strange feeling when he controlled his blood magic before was gone, as the dried blood on his clothes and body began to crack, forming a small spear.

'She wants to keep kissing... What a cute princess...' he thought, watching as Zilna pulled her away, but Qilana continued to watch him with her soft, glossy lips smeared with a slight layer of their drool.

He smiled at her, standing up and stretching his body with a crack.

His eyes watched Qilana as her face suddenly turned bright red in the middle of her being scolded by Zilna about using the Elixir of Saphira on him.

'It's amusing to wonder what her naked body looks like; she can see the thoughts I want her to see, haha.'

'Ah, she looks a little angry...is it because I looked at Zilna's ass? It can't be helped she's got a bigger one...'

Alexander just shrugged at the pouting look of Qilana as her soldiers and knights went back into the city.

However, she wanted to scold him and show him whose ass was best; thanks to their union, Qilana knew that the first assault was dealt with, and she gained a short amount of time to try to build some form of defence and hire some mercenaries.

"What to do..." Alexander wondered as he saw that most of the women now looked at him differently, like he was important and they needed to respect him.

'Well... does making out with their princess mean something significant?'

Alexander acted quietly, walking towards Selmot, as Venri naturally stood beside him, her body now more beautiful and robust, with tight muscles and silky skin.

Sometimes she would sneak peeks at him, her hands trying to reach for his hand, but she lacked the courage, only for him to wrap himself around her waist, pulling her into his embrace.

"Did you miss me, Venri? Forgive me; I wanted to be there when you woke up."

"It's okay, master, you left lots of your warmth inside me, so I wasn't lonely."

He looked at her, enjoying the soft scent of jasmine on her body.

"Warmth?"

"Fufu~ the delicious sticky cream."

It had been a while since he spoke to a freshly born Vesta that he forgot most of them were a little strange. Nevertheless, they wouldn't magically fall for them if they held respect or love beforehand; almost always, these girls would become a little detached from reality and crazy, just like Venri right now.

"Venri, what was that jelly that Qilana made me eat?"

"Hmph! Go sleep with the princess; her pussy will be perfect."

He looked at the black-haired girl, who blinked her red eyes at him before tilting her head. She seemed to be a sincere girl even after becoming a ghoul.historical

"Tell me, and I'll reward you."

"Ahhh~ master is the best!"

"Enough, just speak."

"That was a gift that Saphira gives to the most devout, usually the future queen and essential figures in the country.

"It seems to mainly be used by men because it increases the chance of pregnancy, but it also allows the two who feed on it together to share a link as the human transforms into something different."

'Hmmm...'

Alexander lowered his hand, gently caressing her ass as she continued. He asked many questions only to discover the truth about why men were seen as weak in this kingdom, at least.

They couldn't use mana, circulate it or accept it into their bodies.

'Then this medicine allows one man to absorb mana and become something akin to a mage in this world, or rather able to stand on the same level as the women.'

"But master... that potion or elixir is a gift only given to the queen once and is used to select her true husband. This means that as long s she doesn't abandon Saphira... The throne is for both you and the princes... You are now our master..."

"Heh... I was your master anyway."

Pah!

Her body shuddered as he slapped her soft behind, caressing her flesh as it squished between his fingers; Venri whimpered softly, clinging to his arm as they entered the room where she gave her virginity to him.

'So that medicine not only improved my body but also increased my lifespan... I wonder if it had any effects on me as a ghoul?'

Past queens used this elixir to ensure their husbands remained pretty and young when they ruled over the land. Otherwise, the men would quickly die from old age and become ugly due to not having mana.

Alexander was about to consider further when he heard the subtle sound of fabric sliding across his skin before two soft hands wrapped around his wrist.

"I want my reward now, master..."

"What do you want?"

"Please give me your warmth and love until I am too full to take another droplet."

"Now you are a Vesta; I won't go easy... You might die, still are you sure?"

Her eyes began to glimmer with a ruby light.

"Please kill me with your cock, master~ Hehe!"

He shook his head, there was time yet, and he was not ready to face Qilana with the sudden change in his feelings towards her; Alexander's arms pushed Venri down onto the bed with a light squeak as she bounced, the beautiful creamy skin brightened by the sunlight from the distant window.

"I'm going to start."

"Mmmmn!"

Alexander's hands gently stroked over the smooth body of Venri as his member pushed into her welcoming vault, its soft quilted velvet walls accepting him as if it was her reason for existing.

Her loud cries of delight and passion would resound through the manor for the next few hours until a maid was sent to interrupt them and invite them to dinner with the rest of the knights and princess.

Alexander felt strange when the maid called him "Highness" and acted like he was already her king.

'I need to speak with Qilana...' He thought, looking at the sleeping body of Venri, her body covered in white cream as her petal still gaping wide and seeping with thick white milk as her legs trembled.

He won their little battle.
