CHAPTER 45: LAUGHTER

VALKARIE PALACE

HELENA'S ROOM

[OH, YOU ARE BACK… YOU'VE GOT COMPANY.]

Alpha said after Helena opened her eyes.

"...yeah, I sensed her mana,"

Helena said as she looks down to see a giant wolf lying asleep beside her.

"I guess it's a full moon, huh?"

Helena said as she ran her hand through Grace's luscious fur. unlike in other werewolf stories, where a werewolf could only transform when it's a full moon. Grace was different. She has the ability to transform whenever she wants, and the full moon increased her strength tenfold.

But, with this ability, came a small drawback. Whenever the full moon comes about, Grace's strength increases but she also loses all ration and follows her primal instinct. Which is to protect Helena.

"Hehe, I can't wait to see her embarrassed expression when morning comes,"

Helena said while laughing with a lewd expression.

[OR YOU JUST LIKE SEEING HER NAKED WHEN SHE GOES BACK TO HER HUMAN FORM.]

Alpha said in a judgemental tone.

"What… what are you talking about? I don't enjoy seeing the embarrassed expression of a naked woman early in the morning, and I also never imagined grabbing her boobs and planting my face between them… Ha-haha."

With a guilty smile on her face, Helena denies Alpha's Insinuation.

[... ¬_¬.. Whatever you say.]

Alpha said.

"Ahem… let's focus on something more important than boobs…"

Helena said, after calming her perverted thoughts.

"It's been a while since have checked my stats… let's see how strong I have become in the past six months."

Helena said in an anticipating tone. In the last six months, Helena spent most of her time doing two things.

The first thing she focused on was accumulating knowledge. Since Ella was gone, Helena had to study up on all the information about the empire and the world around it. And With the help of the 'Dark Knight Guild', under her command, she was able to obtain books on the history, geography, tradition, and religion of every kingdom and Empire on the continent.

And the second thing she spent most of her time doing was developing her universe, which is the major source of acquiring universal points.

[DING]

[NAME]: HELENA VON MERULA

[SEX]: FEMALE

[AGE]: 7

[RACE]: GOD

[HP]: 43000 [STR] 41600 [QI ATTACK]: 41800

[INTELIGENCE]: 41200 [UNIVERSAL QI]: 500MY [CHARM]: 41200 [LUCK]: 41500

[DEFENCE]: 42501 [STAMINA]: 40715 [AGILITY]: 40625

[undistributed Universal point: 2507005025.]

"Heh…"

Helena smiled after seeing the large number of universal points she had accumulated over the past six months.

"Alpha… according to my present stats, how do I fare against the emperor?"

Helena asked.

[THE HOST IS CURRENTLY AT THE ENTRY STAGE OF 'GREAT GRANDMASTER REALM'. WHICH IS EQUIVALENT TO THE 7TH CLASS AURA USER. YOU ARE BOTH ON THE SAME LEVEL, BUT THERE IS STILL A STRENGTH AND EXPERIENCE GAP BETWEEN YOU AND THE EMPEROR. ]

[IN SIMPLER TERMS… IF YOU FOUGHT THE EMPEROR TEN TIMES HE WOULD WIN NINE AND DRAW ONE DUE TO YOUR STRONG WEREWOLF VITALITY AND YOUR IMMORTALITY AS A GOD.]

Alpha explained.

"Hmm… I see, but what if I place all my universal points into my universal QI stat?"

Helena asked Alpha in a curious tone. Although she could perform godly feats with the universal QI in her universe. Outside of it, universal QI was essentially the same as QI or Mana, except it was a stronger form of energy. And although it was strong, it became harder for her to advance to the next stage of her cultivation, because of the impurities that enter her body when she takes in mana from the air and turns it into universal QI in her body.

But with the Universal points provided by the creatures in her universe, she had hope of advancing her cultivation.

[I WOULD ADVISE AGAINST THAT.]

Alpha said.

"Why is that?"

Helena questioned. She did not understand why Alpha would be against it.

[BECAUSE YOU WOULD BE SUPPRESSED BY THE CONTINENT RESTRICTION.]

Alpha said.

"...What does that mean?"

Helena questioned, with a serious expression, as this was the first time she had heard about such a thing even after reading almost all the historical books she had in her possession.

[IT MEANS, THAT THERE IS A RESTRICTION PLACED ON THIS CONTINENT TO PREVENT ITS INHABITANTS FROM CROSSING A CERTAIN POWER LEVEL.]

Alpha said.

After listening to alpha's words, Helena realized that the only person with the power to place such a powerful restriction was the Goddess. But she could not understand why a God would prevent its creation from growing.

"The Goddess… why would she place such a restriction? Isn't the growth of her creation a benefit for her? So why would she stop that?"

Helena questioned Alpha with an angry tone.

[THERE IS NO INFORMATION ON THIS IN MY DATABASE…I AM SORRY.]

Alpha apologized after noticing Helena's displeased expression.

*CREAK*

Helena stood up from the floor where she was seated, walked to her bed, and laid face flat on it.

"How am I going to build my harem and conquer the world if I can't beat my crazy father? Am I just going to give up…?"

Helena thought in her mind.

"NO…!"

Helena said as turns around and seats up on her bed with a new fire in her eyes.

"There is no way I am giving up on my harem. There has to be a way to bypass the restriction… Ah, yes, that's it, I had the answer all along."

Helena said, after realizing something. She stands on her bed and stretches her hand forward before saying.

"DEN…"

A portal leading into her universe appeared.

"Alpha… I am granting you access to enter my universe. Though you were once a tool to control and monitor my movements. But now we are partners, and this is my way of trusting you, as a partner and a friend."

Helena said in a serious tone. As she stared at Alpha.

Alpha could tell from Helena's expression that she meant every word she said. And there and then Alpha decided.

[DING]

[SYSTEM HAS BEEN GRANTED ACCESS TO THE HOST'S DIMENSION/UNIVERSE.]

[AND… THANK YOU FOR TRUSTING ME… FRIEND.]

Alpha said.

After hearing Alpha call her friend, Helena smiled inwardly.

"Ahem… let's go in, before Grace wakes up."

Helena said as she walks into the portal.

—------------------------------------------

AT THE SAME TIME, INSIDE THE EMPEROR'S ROOM

ROYAL PALACE.

Lying asleep in the middle of the royal bed was Emperor Maximus. He lay naked with two beautiful women on each side, as only a piece of light bedding prevented them from being nude.

As they slept, a black smoke passes under the doorway into the emperor's bedroom. Like it had a mind of its own, it floats towards Maximus and goes into his body.

*WHOOSH*

After the black smoke enters his body, Maximus opens his eyes and sat up quickly. He raised his hand, shoved his hair away from his face, and began laughing.

"Ha-haha… Muhahaha…"

He laughed loudly with an evil expression.

"AHN…"

Because of his loud laugh, one of the women moans as she wakes. She looks over to see the emperor awake.

"Your majesty, you are awake? What's going on?"

She asked in a curious tone.

"… it's nothing big. I just had a very interesting dream."

Maximus replied.

After the emperor's reply, the woman crawls toward the emperor's crotch before saying.

"Your majesty… why don't I make reality more interesting than a dream?"

She said in a seductive tone while licking her lips.

*BAM*

"Your majesty, I can also do the same."

The second woman said as she jumps in beside the first one.

"Well… show me how you can make my reality more interesting than my dream."

Maximus said as he laid back.

Upon hearing maximus' words, they looked at each other and smiled before going under the bedding covering the emperor's crotch.

*SLURP* *SLURP*
