CHAPTER 30 *AHEM*

Marcy pushes him into the bed once again and starts kissing him, invading his mouth with her sweet tongue.

As a witch, she is considered a dark creature, and just like the succubus, they are also known for their sexual nature.

Cleo senses the dark energy invading his body, which is easily dealt with by the system.

It issues a warning to him that, in his current state, it is unable to cancel the vibration of pleasure since his heart was beating erratically after being assaulted by Lilith.

The vibration is actually dispersing the strange energy that he was infected with, unfortunately for him, his skill only further excites the girls.

His eyes narrow, and he grabs Marcy's hand and pushes her into the bed. He then plunges his finger inside her little cave and tells the system to put the vibration in his finger to the maximum.

As she convulses in pleasure, he heaves a sigh of relief.

Just as he was about to leave, Lilith, who was wasted earlier, uses some sort of skill on him, causing him to freeze. She smiles as her wings spread.

Her eyes glow in bright light as she smiles at him, and since she is still sensitive down there, she opens her mouth and takes his dragon while.

As he remembers this scene, he cannot help but shiver.

The pleasure that he felt was truly sublime, but the sensation of weakness that descends on him after each shot causes him to nearly faint.

He knows what will happen after he becomes unconscious, he will not be able to leave the room alive, and Lilith will definitely suck him dry.

Seeing that he had managed to recover to the point that he could already speak, Pure once again asked him. "What truly had happened inside the room?"

He wipes his mouth and answers. "The greatest dream of most men in the academy."

Pure can see the indication in his face, and his ever-small eyes open widely.

He turns around and does not see anyone nearby.

Of course, with his presence and reputation, no one would dare approach them without any good reason.

He heaves a sigh of relief and quickly says. "You mean that you and Lilith had intercourse? I know for a fact that she is incredibly proud, she might like to play with guys, but she disdains having physical interaction with any of them."

Cleo nods his head, and he smiles bitterly.

"Do not look at me with such admiration, I nearly died in that room. You of all people should know the nature of succubi."

Pure's expression becomes serious, he had forgotten about this, and his admiration for his friend only increases.

He even gives him a thumbs up, not acting like a normal monk at all.

"Let us leave. Aranold is definitely worried about my current status considering that I am dealing with Lilith, an Ace and someone who has control over most succubus students in the academy."

Pure shakes his head and smiles.

"No, I do not think that he is that worried. I had told my sister Diamond that I was going to help you; she should have shared this information with my friend Aranold."

Cleo feels a bit relieved after hearing this.

He does not want his friend to go out of the Nightmare Valley just yet, his bloodline is too volatile to just ignore.

As they arrived on the outskirts of Nightmare Valley, they were immediately greeted by numerous corpses of undeads, all of them were no longer moving, indicating that they truly had died.

The two look at each other with confusion written on their faces.

They then continue on their journey, the number of corpses in the area did not decrease, it seems the person who left them there intended so.

"How many bronze zombies have I killed?" A tired voice was heard.

Cleo and Pure then see the other two, they are actually exhausted to the point that they are resting besides the rotten corpses of multiple different undeads.

"What had happened?" Seeing this scene, Cleo quickly runs to them and asks with a concerned expression.

"Oh! You are finally here! About these? Hahaha! We got bored of waiting and decided to continue to temper ourselves. We started hunting the living dead that you called zombies, there are actually multiple of them that are much stronger than me." Aranold quickly explains.

Cleo was not surprised, if there are bronze zombies, there are definitely higher tiers to them.

He wished that he had seen them when they were still moving.

"Here, this is a necklace that I obtained from Lilith; I also have a special treasure for you; with this baby, the two of us can obtain yin stones at a fixed rate." He confidently stated, causing Aranold's eyes to shine brightly.

"Since the two of you have reunited, I am taking my junior sister with me. With the amount of battle she has participated in, she needs to rest and meditate in order to calm her killing intent." Pure quickly says.

Diamond instantly agrees with him and stands.

She turns to the two and bows her head.

"I am grateful for the two of you for bringing me on your journey. I have learned a lot in these past couple of days, and I hope to have an adventure or training with you once again in the future."

Aranold shakes his head.

"It should have been me that should be thanking you, without your help, our journey would have been ten times more difficult. Also, I am grateful that you accompanied me throughout the entire wait."

Cleo agrees with his friend, he clasps his hand and bows.

"I am truly grateful for your help, without you, our training would not have been so successful. You are truly a wonderful teammate, and I also hope to travel with you again."

Pure laughs. "It seems that the three of you have created a great bond after a couple of life and death experiences, this warms my heart. Let us go, junior sister, we must train you to become the next ace of our race!"

Cleo, seeing that they had left quickly, brings Aranold into their hideout.

His friend is shocked by this, and he cannot help but ask in alarm. "Why are we going back?!"

Cleo takes out the machine that he had acquired from Lilith, he quickly explains.

"This object can conjure yin stones, they might be inferior to natural ones, but at least with such an item, the two of us can gain a stable amount of yin stones without worrying about how to ask for another yin attribute item from Lady Lilith."

Seeing how grave his expression is, Aranold feels a pang of guilt in his heart.

He knows that his friend has suffered some sort of injustice from Lilith, he clenches his fist tightly and swears that he will definitely pay back the gratitude that he owes to him.

"Throw me!" Aranold, without hesitation, pushes him up with all of his strength.

Cleo quickly grabs the short rope that is hidden in one of the crevices.

He starts climbing and arrives at the hole.

He takes out the machine and hides it deep in the hole.

According to the system, it is lacking in energy and was not actually broken.

It seems that after being brought out of the Realm of the Thousand Worlds, it had suffered some sort of cosmic virus.

The system is able to solve this problem with ease as it is one of its primary functions.

Now that they are in a place filled with dense yin energy, the machine can start absorbing it and transforming it into a purified form.

"Hmm, this might attract some unwanted creatures."

Seeing that the hole is too big and striking, he decides to hide it.

He starts punching the walls, but it is actually much harder than he expected.

His eye starts twitching after suffering from the pain, he sighs and feels that he had to somehow secure the location.

[Put the wolf to guard the crevice, the system suggests that the host fuse the fish and wolf in order to create a much more powerful pet.]

"What!? I can do that!? Why did you not tell me this before!?"

He is shocked from hearing that, and he cannot help but start breathing rapidly.

If he can truly combine his pets, he might be able to create more powerful pets even without the Gemstone of Life.

[This ability does not come without any cost, the Gemstone of Life is one of the system's greatest achievements, it can fuse, mutate, and evolve life forms.]

[The system does not have all the information regarding the ability of the Gemstone of Life as the creators had died before testing its full capacity.]

"Even if that is the case, why did you not inform me about this earlier?"

He can just ask for others to trade the so-called useless soul pets with money.

[After surviving the black hole, the system has to use its full power to revive the host, most of its memories and data were erased or sealed due to the amount of energy it requires to contain them.]

"So you just collected the data? Have you started recovering with the increase in my strength?" He asks.

[Affirmative, but the real reason for the data recovery is the system's absorption of the cosmic energy from the device, without it, the host might not have obtained the information regarding the fusion.]

'Cosmic energy!' He finally found an energy that can help the system recover, unfortunately, this type of energy is extremely volatile and he is incapable of obtaining it.

They got lucky because they had obtained the device from Lilith.

[The fusion will definitely harm the host, there is a sixty-five percent chance that the process will lead to the host's death, it is advised not to take it.]

"If that is the case, then why did you suggest that I should fuse Alpha Shadow Wolf and Hungry Koi Fish?" He asks with a confused expression.

[The system still has a small amount of cosmic energy that has not been absorbed yet, it can use this to safely fuse two soul blessings, but this will not take away the great pain that comes with the fusion.]

"Why does this process cause pain?" He is confused, the subjects are his pets, why is he the one feeling the pain from the fusion?

[The system uses the Gemstone of Life for the fusion, but it needs a special place to activate the process, firstly, the two soul blessings need to be in the same category, secondly, the soul blessings are stably hooked in the host's soul slot.]

"So my soul is used to carry out the process, I understand." He nods his head.

He might not truly understand the entire process, but at least he has a general gist of what is going to happen.

"Wait, I need to let Aranold climb up, if this process is extremely dangerous, I might become vulnerable during the fusion."

Grabbing the rope inside the hole, he throws them out.

Feeling the tug, he knows his friend has realised his intention.

After a while, Aranold finally arrives at the hole.

He quickly informs him about his plan, and after hearing it, his friend actually dissuades him, but he is adamant on going through.

Since he cannot change his mind, Aranold can only agree.

Fortunately, Diamond has brought a lot of food with her, she had returned to the cafeteria after expecting that Pure and Cleo would take some time in their trade with Lilith.

"Wait! Before you start your crazy experiment, I need to bring the food here!"

Without waiting for him to respond, his friend jumps out of the hole.

Knowing that his friend is suffering from the drain from his bloodline, he is actually worried that the fusion might take a considerable amount of time to be completed.

After Aranold brings all the food into the hole, Cleo immediately tells the system to start, unfortunately, even after he prepared himself for the upcoming pain, the degree of it still shocked him.

"Ahh!" He screams in agony.

He starts withering in pain as he feels his soul being ripped apart, the sensation is unbearable.
