Clentine slowly exhaled. Without saying a word, she shook her head, reached over, and grabbed Aphryne’s hand. Then she stepped to the side, fully intending to leave.
At this point, she no longer possessed the patience required to deal with these annoyances. If she remained here much longer, she genuinely feared she might accidentally kill this oh-so-great prodigy of the Grand House of Rose.
And frankly, that would only create unnecessary trouble for them.
"Have you three won still not understood?" Valerius questioned coldly, finally losing the last traces of his gentlemanly façade. "I have yet to grant you permission to leave this hall. So who exactly do you think you are to disregard my words?" His tone rose noticeably.
The three completely ignored him and continued walking.
’I wonder what Aezaleon is doing right now.’ Clentine’s thoughts had already drifted elsewhere. ’He should be done with little Anastasia by now. Though it isn’t much, I do hope he likes my gift.’ A faint smile appeared on her face as thoughts of her husband occupied her mind.
Then she sensed it. A frozen spear of blood radiating intense frost energy shot toward her from behind.
WOOSH!
Clentine turned. Her pupils constricted, focused on the incoming projectile. The next mont, its trajectory abruptly changed.
Without slowing, stopping, or even being touched, the spear veered away from her path as though an invisible force had seized control of it. What had been aid directly at her suddenly curved upward. Everything happened in less than a second. The spear slamd into the ceiling instead.
BOOM!
Fragnts of stone and frost scattered across the hall as the frozen blood spear lodged itself deep overhead.
Valerius was surprised. Only slightly. After all, his goal had never been to seriously harm them. He rely wanted to force the three won to stop ignoring him and direct their attention where it belonged—towards him. As such, he had intentionally weakened the attack by a considerable margin. Or at least, that was what he told himself.
As their gazes locked, Valerius smirked at the cold, wrath-filled expressions directed his way. What could they possibly do? Without the slightest hesitation, he activated his ability, Blood Charm, targeting all three won simultaneously. The ability was further empowered and amplified by his Extre Tier concept of Charm.
He was fully determined to make these three won his, no matter what thods he had to resort to.
Even this.
’Now, happily beco my bitches.’ His black eyes shone with a crimson light.
Afterwards, silence followed. Total and utter silence. The manager let out a dejected sigh. No matter what happened next, he had already decided that he would keep his mouth shut about everything that had occurred here.
The three girls froze for a brief mont. Not because they had actually been chard, but because they were genuinely shocked. They simply could not believe that soone had actually tried to enslave them. Their eyes widened as they stared at the Blood Elf.
Unfortunately, Valerius completely misunderstood their reaction. Seeing their expressions, he threw his head back and laughed boisterously. His face was filled with satisfaction and excitent, as though he had just obtained three priceless treasures.
"Now, you’re finally mine, won," he declared triumphantly. "I shall take my ti properly enjoying the benefits of acquiring the three of you."
He was genuinely happy, completely oblivious to the reality of the situation.
Charming Clentine was impossible to begin with. Even setting aside the overwhelming weight of her existence—her bloodlines, cores, elental powers, innate abilities, and absolute ability—her very nature made external domination not extraordinarily difficult, but absolutely impossible. She wasn’t known as the Profanity of Corruption for nothing after all.
Auguszta and Aphryne were no different. Their own elental powers already granted them substantial resistance against foreign influence, but the greater reason lay within the bonds connecting them to Aezaleon through Absolute Will.
The primary factor was Eternal Oath Genesis of Sanctum of Loyal Revenants. Through its sovereign bond architecture, their souls, identities, and existential continuities were anchored within a shared frawork that actively resisted corruption, coercion, domination, unauthorized alterations, and foreign claims of authority.
Supporting this was Shared Ascension Matrix, which maintained the master-companion linkage and continuously reinforced the integrity of that connection. Existential Equilibrium Concordance harmonized the bond itself, ensuring stability, compatibility, and coherence while preventing external influences from creating contradictions, fractures, or destabilizing pressures within the network.
At an even deeper level, Infinite Soul Sea provided imnse spiritual depth and anchoring, while Imperium Ego Singularity ensured that the sovereign authority at the center of the entire structure remained indivisible and supre.
Working together as passive and hybrid effects, these domains ford a self-reinforcing system of sovereign anchoring, continuity stabilization, bond integrity, existential coherence, and spiritual reinforcent.
As a result, foreign charm, domination, enslavent, loyalty alteration, mind control, and similar forms of interference found virtually no foundation upon which to establish themselves.

In the private room, Aezaleon’s eyes snapped open, every trace of relaxation vanishing in an instant as he felt the audacious attempt to take what was his.
Through the bonds forged by Absolute Will, he beca aware of the blood elf, the lingering fluctuations of the ability used monts earlier, and the few presences gathered within the auction hall.
Through his companions, he sensed their emotions, their reactions, and their displeasure. Yet compared to his own, those feelings were insignificant.
A profane wrath surged from the depths of his soul. A primal fury. A sovereign indignation.
It erupted from the very core of his existence, so sudden and intense that even he had not known such anger was possible. His will felt challenged, insulted, and humiliated. To think that a re mortal would dare lay claim to sothing that belonged to him was entirely intolerable.
The mont that thought ford, the response beca automatic. Imperium Ego Singularity rejected the notion outright. There was no hesitation, no consideration, and no acceptance. The very idea was simply unacceptable to his existence.
And in response, Axiom of Will Manifestation activated.
The effect did not erge within the private room where Aezaleon sat. Instead, it descended directly upon the auction hall. An invisible pressure swept across the gathering, settling heavily over the environnt. Conversations faltered, breaths caught, and hearts trembled. An instinctive sense of dread crawled through every corner of the hall as countless individuals felt an overwhelming presence settle upon them.
No one understood what was happening. No one understood why. Yet every instinct they possessed scread the sa warning: sothing superior had taken notice of them.
And for the first ti since the auction had begun, the hall felt the terrifying presence of Absolute Will.

Overly simplified summary of the Sub Ability Effects:
1. Imperium Ego Singularity
Aezaleon’s absolute self-sovereignty. Anything he genuinely recognizes as his cannot be casually claid, overridden, or redefined by foreign authority.
It automatically rejects unacceptable claims, intrusions, and violations directed toward what falls under his recognized dominion.
---
2. Axiom of Will Manifestation
Transforms Aezaleon’s Will from an internal conviction into an external force capable of influencing reality. The stronger and more absolute his determination, the more directly that Will imposes itself upon the world around him.
---
3. Shared Ascension Matrix (indirectly involved through the companion linkage)
Maintains a permanent growth and synchronization network between Aezaleon and his companions. Through that connection, information, experience, developnt, and certain forms of awareness can circulate throughout the bonded system.
---
Absolute Will (overall frawork influence rather than a specific sub-ability)
An Absolute centered upon sovereign authority, self-determination, and the supremacy of one’s own Will. Every effect, domain, and expression ultimately exists as a different manifestation of that singular foundational principle.
