Yuki's body was that of a G.o.ddess . The incredible feeling of her soft b.r.e.a.s.t.s caressed Clyde's face as she pulled him onto her . A faint flowery smell of women's bath soap tickled his nostrils . Her lips tasted of strawberry . Pulling off her silky black nightgown, his eyes feasted . Her thighs were perfect—he trailed his tongue from one end to the other then onto the sea . The first round intensified with the duo nearly rocking the entire house . At least it felt that way—the young man let raw instincts take over .

Clyde almost forgot why he came to the room as she tightened and convulsed, moaning . He barely managed to pull out, missing by a hair's breadth, ejecting onto her leg .

He stared at the naked women with long dark hair, large b.r.e.a.s.t.s, and purple eyes . To think Ashfall treated her so badly . To think that anyone could even consider such a thing to this woman .

Clyde kissed her, which seemed to surprise the young woman . The move made her giddy .

"Spend the night with me, Master Clyde," she said .

"Clyde," he said . "Why do you insist on—"

"Because it's fun," she said . "Clyde, you gave me hope, an enjoyable life, and even yourself…for me . You and I weren't born rich and sn.o.bby . We both do what we can to survive . Twenty-two years old without a family, except for the maids and servants you freed . It felt amazing to truly be free…yet…I don't want to be anywhere else except near you . Despite knowing what you are, knowing that you could be taken away from me by killing the Viper, I don't want to be anywhere else . This is why I chose to be your maid…I want all of my skills to be useful to you . Every ounce of magic, at your disposal . "

"I don't know if deserve you, Yuki," Clyde said . She nuzzled into the young man's embrace .

"Don't try to be modest," Yuki said . "I won't allow it . " She gazed at him in silence for a handful of seconds . "You know, one day I'd love to be your wife…bear your children . Spend the rest of my life with a man like you . " She giggled . "Every silly girl's fantasy, right? To get married, have kids . "

[Your relations.h.i.+p with Yuki has evolved to cherished and Friend closer level 9 . ]

Clyde dropped the idea of asking her for recipes, not wanting to crush this moment . What kind of an idiot would? A wimpy harem main character . Probably the edge lord .

He was out a loss of words, staring back at the smiling woman . They held an embrace…He had to say something . No bulls.h.i.+t . No dodgy pathetic main character words . No indecision .

She melted into his kiss, giggled at his erection .

"Let's really get to know each other," Clyde said . "No bulls.h.i.+t—you've been a huge blessing ever since you came into my life . I kept trying to talk you out of the maid thing—I wanted nothing of your old life coming to mind . I wanted to protect you, still, want to—even if you don't need it . I can't help it . You're beautiful, fun . Sometimes throw me into the thrills—like that time in battle . " They both looked at each other and erupted into laughter .

[Yuki has fallen in love with you . ]

The duo engaged into another pa.s.sionate face-kissing session, which turned into s.e.x so wild that someone in the house did wake up .

"Quiet down pervs," Natalia snapped . The duo laughed again . They talked for hours, truly getting to know each other . While this wasn't the first conversation, he had like this with Yuki—Yuki basically kept the house going—he was always talking to her . And she didn't allow small talk .

Thursday . Week 4 . Month 1 . Year 1 . Season: Autumn . Last week of the month…

They fell asleep in an embrace . So he felt VERY awkward the next morning, finding Alice in his arms and Yuki behind her . Neither stirred, so he carefully picked the half-demoness up and snuck out into the hall . As he approached their room, he could see through the open door that Chika was still asleep, legs spread wide . Good thing the bed was enormous . He still chuckled at her ridiculous pose .

"Psst, Alice," he whispered .

"Five more minutes," she murmured . He pinched her cheek . "Ow . " She opened her eyes and accepted his kiss .

"Let's go out for breakfast . " He had left a note for Yuki, asking her to take the day off . He'd personally manage Maki over the contract . Today was training day .

Alice's face lit up . "Before you ask, yes, just the two of us . "

Somehow, an innocent kiss turned into s.e.x, right in the hallway . The feeling of his life mate's insides, her lips pressed against his, and the love she emitted—it stood as a reminder of who remained the best . Three rounds later, someone dropped something right as they released . The duo flinched, snapping out of their realm of pa.s.sion to see a wildly blus.h.i.+ng Melody .

"We have rooms for a reason," she said, hurrying away, but not before scooping up her notebooks .

He looked at Alice, taking in the playful mischievousness in her eyes . They both laughed .

"Let's go get breakfast before we lose another hour," the young man said . Alice aimed a hand at the floor . The splatters of Clyde's releases vanished .

"Carry me to our bathroom, Heart . "

Since she was already in his arms from the standing position, he shrugged and carried her .

A Small Town…

Aunder took a long swig of his thirty-second beer . The waitresses were no longer smiling and sitting in his lap . Instead, they were expressing concern, offering to even take him to their home . The man tuned them out . If he wanted to be treated like a lady, he'd say so .

Mortem popped into existence next to him .

"Drunk, can you follow one simple suggestion? Partic.i.p.ate . You disobey the watchers, who appointed you a professor at Tactsum High College . While journeying isn't against the rules, you haven't obeyed a single one . STOP MAKING MY LIFE MISERABLE . "

Aunder stood, causing Mortem to shrink back . The time freeze the ent.i.ty constructed shattered .

"Shorty, you've got until the count of one to get out of my sight," Aunder said . "I've already killed seventy-five ent.i.ties . Do you—One . "

Mortem flew up to Aunder's face, snarling .

"No one dismisses me like a fly, mortal," he snapped . "NO ONE . " Time froze again . "I—"

Every bone in the ent.i.ty's body rattled as he was bashed backward by a single finger . And he flew, through gla.s.s doors, shattering them, through a van, beneath a horse and into a large statue of a woman .

Aunder walked toward him, staggering a bit . Mortem roared as he rose .

"You're stwill alive?" Aunder slurred, the alcohol now beginning to take effect .

"Master! You should really get to bed . " Su Yang came to his side, flanked by Olivia and Momo .

Mortem laughed, nearly manically, but filled with scorn .

"We've let you run ragged far too long . So I'll take everything from you . Let me show you why I ADMINISTER THIS GAME! Viper!"

[You have been challenged by Ent.i.ty, Mortem . ]

[Mortem has activated administration privileges—he has invoked UNRESTRICTED ENt.i.tY MODE . ]

[You have entered a Maxed Death Sentence!]

[Warning: not even you should take this lightly . ]

Aunder laughed, snapping out of his drunken state, a smile of glee on his face . He watched a silver aura envelop the ent.i.ty . Cold eyes s.h.i.+ning of gold, like molten lava, stared back at him .

"Woo, now that's what I'm talking about, f.u.c.k yeah!" Aunder laughed . Mortem teleported in front of him, unsheathing a sword of fire out of midair . He plunged it into the Viper's chest . And he wasn't done yet .

Blue and black energy blasted Aunder twenty yards from his foe . He skidded against the ground, then hopped to his feet, laughing .

[HYPER-CRITICAL! Your HP has drastically dropped to 2 . 3M%]

Mortem was already there, swinging his sword . Aunder took grazing slices, his clothes smoking .

"You may not take much damage to magic," Mortem said, his voice booming like a G.o.d's, "but Ki doesn't follow the same rules . You think you're going to continue to NOT TAKE ME SERIOUSLY . I'LL f.u.c.kING KILL YOU . I'LL f.u.c.kING KILL YOU!"

Aunder laughed harder, slapping his sides . Mortal's aura engulfed the entire town .

[Warning, this attack is unblockable! You may not be able to withstand it!]

"Master… . " Su Yang said . "That attack . "

Aunder snapped out of his state . If he didn't do anything about that attack, the Venus sisters, his servants would die . Oh well . That meant Mortem's doom, because Aunder wasn't about to lose these women . Only honorable deaths could be bestowed upon them—death in combat .

He held up a hand .

"Su Yang, if we met by other circ.u.mstances, you'd be my wife . "

She blushed .

"Then why do you not give me the honor . You know of my love . "

"You know why . And I've told you the reason why you're coming with me on this journey . Besides the whole servant thing, your powers will be used to help me set up a trap against some watchers . "

Mortem released his charged magic in a giant ball . The women looked worried, but when they made eye contact with Aunder, relief appeared .

"While it's true I have no tolerance for Ki, that doesn't mean I'll roll around and die to it . " Aunder raised a hand into the air . "Let's access chakra, shall we?"

((Aunder has triggered Break- Particle Shatter . ))

Mortem's magic froze mid-air, causing the ent.i.ty to stare back, aghast . Piece by piece, it turned into harmless ash . A gust of wind hurled it away like a dust storm .

"That…this is impossible, even for you . Wait…to disrupt my Ki using chakra . No . I won't let him humiliate me while I'm in unrestricted mode . If I can't control him…"

[Mortem has maximized his power output!]

Aunder grinned .

"Come on, ya b.a.s.t.a.r.d, show me what you got . "

Mortem grinned .

"You let yourself become weak, Aunder . "

"What?" he said .

"You have a weakness . Witness what happens to those who cross me . Who make me go this far . It took me some time to get permission to access this power, d.a.m.n deities, but with you two, I can't mess around . " The ent.i.ty raised a hand . Lightning caressed his fingertips .

[Warning, this is an undodgeable attack!]

Aunder put up a magic s.h.i.+eld, but he realized Mortem's meaning too late . He turned around, eyes widened . The women screamed their last breaths then they exploded . Matter and blood sprayed in all directions . The light of the full moon seemed to make it s.h.i.+ne .

His hands trembled . Su Yang… .

He turned, snarling, but Mortem was gone . Words rang in the air as the time freeze deactivated .

"You will understand, Aunder, that I am not to be taken lightly . You will play the game, or I'll continue to take everything from you . Your world, I'll destroy it . Have you forgotten that?"

Aunder was full of surprise and bewilderment and…shock? Those women died without being given a chance to fight . What…blasphemy for this G.o.ddess-forsaken world . This lack of honor, to the man—it was unheard of .

He shrugged . Yeah right .

"Mortem you are a fool if you don't think I have a backup plan for my three lovelies," he said . "I figured one of you would go for them eventually . "

He snapped his fingers . "When I see you next time though, you're dead . h.e.l.l, they'll probably kill you . "

[Items activated: Resp.a.w.n Doll x 3 . ]

Time reversed for the women until they were whole again and completely unharmed .

"Get ready . Our next hunt is an ent.i.ty . I can't have him popping in on us like that," Aunder said to the resurrected women . "We won't find any more of the dolls, so if you die again, you're gone . I can't help there . "

Su Yang wrapped her arms around the man .

"Please hold me tonight…I remember the feeling of agony . "

Aunder nodded .

"But you know what I won't do . "

"I will convince you," Su Yang said . "No matter how long it takes . "

"Even if it means turning against the world?" Aunder said .

"Of course . "

The Viper grinned .

"Very well . I'll watch your resolve and maybe allow things to s.h.i.+ft between us . Trust me, the world will soon be hating us a lot . "
