Devouring Monarch: Rebirth of the Profane Phoenix

Meanwhile, as the students prepared for a skirmish battle and moved south against the odds, a beautiful woman with red hair sat quietly on a carriage to the north of Silvara with four female knights with pale skin and black hair.

These women were vampiric servants, their youth eternal and with an unlimited lifespan.

However, they were infinitely weaker and subject to the orders of their master vampire, Valerie Drakkur.

"Lady Verena isn't it dangerous to be active in public while Mistress Verana is also active?"

"If the people discover the truth, then won't you be in a dangerous spot?"

Verena didn't react. Instead, she lounged on the soft, silky backrest and looked into the sky with a smile on her lips. "Mother told me the clan rules are only guidelines. If I do well with this, she will seek the ancestors' guidance and alter them making the current system vanish."

"Isn't that dangerous? What if she is lying!?"

These servants adored both girls as if they were their own. The fate of becoming immortal meant they paid a steep price, and unlike natural vampires, they could not bear children nor convert others, and thus, the children of their master became akin to their own.

Thus, they loved both Verana and Verena equally.

"Nn, mother Brenda, she swore on her bloodline and Verana's life. Mother wouldn't do such a thing as a lie. Also, I heard the one who gave me the chance was actually my sister's fiancé. That handsome guy choked me yet gave me a chance this big? Ah, I want to make him forget my sister and become my toy!"

'I get so hot and moist just thinking about making him kneel between my legs and serving me~ Ah, Verana, why is your future husband so alluring and mysterious? He makes useless Shang seem like a potted weed.'

"If you are sure, Lady Verena."

"We will never let you suffer harm. Even if we cannot harm your sister, we can protect your body."

In honesty, Verena's changes were a mystery to herself and Valerie.

From the moment Asura's hand choked her before he crushed her will to fight or resist his powerful magic and aura, she became a little obsessed with him. She would ask her mother, the maids and merchants, in secret for information about him.

Now, her room seemed to have hundreds of photographs of him from his junior years to the latest, when he prepared to march south in his cool armour.

'My dear sister, I know your beloved fiancé so well. What if he chooses the younger and fresher meat? My ass is bigger, and I know that's what he likes~ hehe, thank the dark lady I didn't let that slimy frog touch me. If I missed this man, who could tame my sister and mother? Then I would be a complete fool!'

What shocked Valerie most were the forces her daughter raised without her help to support the northern shore as a joint effort between the Drakkur and Fenix families.

The Drakkur territory covered the entire northwest coast, while the Phoenix Glade wrapped around the Northeast, East, and Southeast borders because of its glorious past and its willingness to fight every battle since the dawn of Silvara.

'I spent a little too much money, but dearest brother-in-law will probably reimburse me, hehe. I have to do my best.'

"Hey, Brenda."

"What, Anne?"

"Have you ever seen the young lady so genuinely happy? That smile is nothing like the past."

"Ah, well. It seems even the dark sheep of the family can discover a good man and find love."

"A shame they are the same man." A third voice sounded, but her hand lovingly stroked Verena's hair while Verena lost herself in thought.

Behind their carriage, a massive army of archers, technicians, sailors, and mercenaries marched. Verena coerced some, but she paid them all handsomely to fight the coming battles in the north. Three thousand troops and thirty boats carried a fraction of them for naval combat.

It seemed the world that interacted with Asura would slowly change, like the lonely duchess who now paid attention to her looks and strength.

"Madeline, does my ass look good in this? I want to know if it will make desire me."

Duchess Valerie stood half naked, in a black lace bra and a loose black dress which emphasised her buttocks and tits because of the low-cut neck and tight waist.

"Petra, how? Can I make him hard with this dress?"

The two were Valerie's closest friends, Petra, the wood or forest nymph, an existence that needed men's essence to survive, which made them a deadly monster for most.

Then there was Madeline, a water nymph who is tranquil, and unlike her fellow wood nymph, she didn't need men's essence as the water nymphs were quite easygoing and only needed to bathe in water or rain to survive.

"You know he would just pull it up and fuck you if you bent over in front of him, right?" Madeline answered with a flat tone while reading through some documents.

She didn't see the need for all this nonsense after seeing the antics of her master and the man she wanted to impress before he left. A memory she never wanted to remember. After being sprayed with his seed, she realised it could also act as a method of food, but after tasting Asura, she could never seek another male.

"Eh, don't you think her ass looks super juicy in this dress? That guy will be all over the master for sure, even if Verana is standing there crying. He would have fun with your body instead!" Petra, with her more erotic mind, stirred trouble.

"You girls are so bad..."

Valerie could only smile bitterly at both her two friends; they always treated her like a master, but she wanted them to feel like sisters to her. She knew Petra meant well, but the inclinations of a wood nymph could make most people turn and run.

'It seems she liked the play of cuckolding and tried it with several men. I have to teach her the true path so she can stop learning weird habits.'

The two nymphs could only giggle before they hugged Valerie; both of them adored her more than she knew. They just wanted Asura to love her for herself and not make her try so hard to impress him because, to them, Valerie was the perfect woman.

"We will go eat now~ okay, sister?"

"You look wonderful in anything, Sister. Have more confidence, or do you want to have another child with him?"

Before Valerie could contemplate what the pair said, they both skipped out of the room holding hands while singing a strange song in the nymph's tongue about ensnaring men for dinner.

"Wait, another child!? No! That is not possible. He already has two and is sleeping with one of them. Ah, what an obscene family. No.

I can't do that yet. He will need time. Maybe he will take another wife. Can I become his wife, too? Or am I too old? Since the moment he held me, my heart hasn't stopped thinking about him, and I can't stop this affection from consuming me.

I want to become his number one, no. I just want to be his, to vacate my title and roam the country beside him. That's why I will reach the peak of Stage Nine before the end of this month!"

In reality, because of the stasis to avoid the curse killing the children in her womb, Valerie regressed to Stage One and worked her way back up to Stage Nine over a few dozen years.

The path was easier because she had made it to Stage Seven before; however, now she wanted to become stronger than ever; holding a token with the Drakkur emblem, she would head deep into the western no-man zone where no monsters and creatures below Stage Seven lived.

Her goal? To hunt and kill every creature to reach Stage Nine.

To do so, she would need a month because she only trained for a few hours at a time, but at least she could trust Verena's ability to handle the north and her daughter to the south of the continent.

The promise to Verena seemed to have become her goal, no longer believing in damning her lovely daughter to replace Verana; though Asura caused this feeling during their last night together, spanking her while she knelt on all fours like a dog, he wouldn't stop till she swore on her bloodline to remedy the situation.

'He was so wild that I thought I might die for real, seven times... I only ever did it once with him in the past, but it was so much bigger and when did he become so skilled...?'

Valerie shook her head and walked to the window, her mind still full of the man who had left for the south. She felt a small pang of loneliness when thinking of him, and the desire to rush after him was overwhelming.

Yet she couldn't abandon the north or Drakkur because that's how the two became bound; she no longer thought of the past and now became obsessed with Asura Fenix, even sending troops to support Lyndwrym in the guise of mercenaries a month ago.

"I will become a woman you can lean upon in your times of need, Asura. You can only blame your words and that unholy rod that awakened me as a woman after thousands of years without even a thought of those things."

With a heavy sigh, she changed into her usual red attire, this time with a pair of pants underneath and long gloves and left the room.

She did not know that her actions would cause a ripple effect, and her children would follow her example and try to win Asura's affection, creating a trio of Drakkur women obsessed with the same man but also at peace with each other for the first time in two lifetimes.

The dark veil upon Drakkur would lift as the light known as Asura Fenix shone through.

*****

While Valerie worked her ass off to reach Stage Nine, the northern troops reached their first destination, a town named Dorn, which was a mining town near the northern border of Wolfsheim and Danzil of the Drakurr territory.

For hundreds of years, the two families shared this mining town, supporting it with their funds and taking a small portion of the ore for themselves; Verena received a brilliant welcome upon arriving as she climbed down the stairs of the carriage.

The crimson hair symbolised their bloodline. It was darker than Lorem's and more like blood, as it would turn black the more hungry they became for it.

Unlike Verana, whose bloodline fused with Helliana and now turned red only during the moments she used blood magic, her sister and mother always had blood-red hair, which was silky and shone beautifully.

"Greetings lady Verana, we have prepared the welcome and things you requested."

There was a moment of silence before Verena gave a polite bow, holding the edge of her dress, the beauty dazzling many of the men from a simple town before she opened her devilish eyes, those sharp, piercing red eyes grasping the heart of the foolish men to look at her like a normal woman before she released them with a smile, allowing the men to sigh in relief.

"Forgive me for the sudden request. I have brought the sufficient renumeration for your hard work!"

All three of the Drakkur women were working hard for their future with the same man.
