Star descended the grand staircase on Prince Lirien’s arm, the midnight blue and silver silk robe flowing around his body like liquid starlight. Every eye in the massive crystal hall turned toward them. The royal gala was in full swing. Tens of nobles, diplomats, and powerful figures from across Aetheria filled the glittering space, their conversations dying down as the most beautiful person in the room made his entrance.
Lirien’s hand rested possessively on Star’s lower back. "They cannot stop staring at you," he murmured, pride clear in his voice.
Star smiled softly, leaning into the touch. "They are staring at us, Your Highness. I am only beautiful because I stand beside you."
Lirien held star posessively signalling his claiming ownership of this beauty.
Inside Star ’s mind, however, a very different conversation was happening.
[Targets acquired,] Jezebel said excitedly. [The hall is packed with high-value individuals. SSS-rank skills everywhere. But many have ntal blocks. You will need to get close. Very close. Use Appeal carefully. We need ten simultaneous harvests to trigger Blooming Awakening.]
Star’s smile never wavered as he walked with Lirien toward the center of the hall. "Understood. Guide ."
The first target was easy. A tall duke from the southern human kingdoms stood near the refreshnt table, already staring at Star with open hunger. Star gently excused himself from Lirien with a sweet whisper. "I will bring you so wine, my prince."
Lirien nodded, eyes following him with affection.
Star approached the duke slowly, letting his hips sway just enough. The man’s breath hitched the mont Star stopped in front of him.
[His na of Lord Aldric the fifth and he possesses a powerful fire power]
"Lord Aldric," Star said softly, voice like velvet. "It is an honor. My na is star i am a huge fan of your work"
The duke swallowed hard. "The honor is mine, Lord Star." he said taking Star’s hand and kissing it affectionately.
Star activated Appeal
A faint pink-silver glow pulsed from him. It was invisible to everyone except the target. The duke’s eyes widened. His face flushed deep red as sudden, overwhelming pleasure crashed into him. His knees trembled. A soft, involuntary moan escaped his lips as his body convulsed in hands-free ecstasy.
"W-what... is happening to ..." he gasped, gripping the table.
Star smiled innocently. "Are you feeling alright, my lord?"
The duke’s eyes rolled back slightly as he reached a sudden, powerful orgasm right there in the middle of the gala. He nearly collapsed, spilling wine on himself before rushing out of the hall in embarrassnt, face burning.
[Skill harvested: Inferno Dominion (Fire Power). Refined by Divine Glamour into Eternal Fla Heart. Much purer and stronger,] Jezebel reported with satisfaction.
Star returned to Lirien with the wine as if nothing had happened.
"You so fucking beautiful" Lirien said, pulling him close.
Star leaned in and kissed his cheek. "Only for you."
The hunt continued.
Jezebel guided him like a predator in silk. [Next target. The ice mage duchess on your left. She has SSS-rank Cryomancy.]
Star moved gracefully through the crowd. When he reached the duchess, he let Appeal flow again. The woman’s fan slipped from her fingers as intense pleasure hit her like a tidal wave. She bit her lip hard, thighs pressing together as waves of ecstasy made her tremble violently.
"Lord Star... you..." she gasped, eyes glassy.
Star simply smiled and moved on.
The duchess rushed toward the nearest side room, barely able to walk straight. Another orgasm hit her before she even reached the door.
[Skill harvested: Absolute Zero Dominion. Refined into Eternal Frost Soul.]
One by one, Star worked the room with terrifying efficiency.
He brushed past a powerful beast tar noble and activated Appeal . The man dropped his glass, moaning shalessly as he climaxed on the spot, drawing shocked stares from those around him.
[Animal Control skill harvested and refined into Beast Sovereignty.]
He danced with a swordmaster general for one song. During the close hold, Appeal flared. The general’s legs shook violently. He excused himself mid-dance, face red, hurrying away as another wave of pleasure forced him to leave the hall.
[Sword skill harvested. Refined into Blade of Eternity.]
A wind archmage nearly fainted when Star whispered sothing close to his ear. The man rushed out of the venue with shaky legs.
[Wind Manipulation harvested. Refined into Gale witch.]
An earth lord trembled violently after a single lingering touch on his arm.
[Earth Control harvested. Refined into Mountain Heart.]
A lightning general climaxed so hard he had to be supported by his attendants as he fled the hall.
[Lightning harvested. Refined into lightning witch.]
A regeneration specialist noble moaned openly in front of his wife before bolting away.
[Healing/Regeneration harvested. Refined into Bloom of Life.]
A transfiguration master lost control during a short conversation and had to be carried out.
[Transfiguration harvested. Refined into Queen of faces]
A strength-focused warlord grabbed the pillar for support after Star lightly touched his shoulder, his massive body convulsing in ecstasy.
[Strength harvested. Refined into TitanDominion.]
Star moved like a ghost in silk. Every target he chose experienced sudden, uncontrollable pleasure. So moaned openly. Others rushed out of the venue with wet stains on their expensive clothes. Whispers began spreading across the hall.
"Is sothing wrong with the drinks tonight?"
"Why are so many people leaving so suddenly and looking so... flushed?"
Lirien noticed the strange atmosphere. His eyes narrowed as he watched yet another noble rush out of the hall with a red face and unsteady steps. He pulled Star closer, voice low.
"Star... what is happening? Every person you speak to ends up running away like that. Explain."
Star looked up at him with innocent, loving eyes. "They are forr acquaintances from my traveling days, Your Highness. So of them wronged in the past. Seeing now, standing beside you as your consort... it must be too much for them. Sha, perhaps. Or fear."
Lirien studied his face carefully. The excuse sounded reasonable, but sothing still felt off. However, the way Star looked at him with such devotion made his suspicion waver.
"I see," Lirien said finally, pulling Star even closer. "As long as they are not bothering you. I will not allow anyone to ruin tonight for us."
Star smiled sweetly and kissed Lirien’s jaw. "Thank you for trusting ."
Inside, Jezebel laughed softly.
[Well played, darling. He almost caught on.]
The night reached its peak.
[ Nine skills acquired,] Jezebel announced after the ninth target. [One more and we trigger the evolution.]
Star’s heart raced with excitent. He felt powerful. Alive. The bracelet was gone. His full strength had returned, and now he was harvesting the power of others like ripe fruit.
[Final target,] Jezebel said. [The Strength-focused warlord near the eastern pillar. SSS-rank Titan Body. Get close.]
Star excused himself from Lirien once again and approached the muscular warlord. The man was already staring at him with barely contained lust. Star smiled, placed a gentle hand on the warlord’s arm, and released the strongest pulse of Appeal yet.
The warlord’s eyes rolled back. A deep, guttural moan escaped him as his massive body convulsed. He ca so hard that his knees buckled, forcing him to grab the pillar for support. A visible wet spot appeared on his formal pants before he staggered away in humiliated ecstasy.
[Ten SSS-rank skills harvested!] Jezebel announced triumphantly.
Star felt it imdiately.
A surge of overwhelming power exploded inside him.
A majestic golden system window appeared in his vision.
[Conditions for Evolution officially t.]
[You have now been awarded a new Unique Skill: Disintegration]
[All existing skills have been analyzed and refined by Divine Glamour.]
[Do you wish to undergo transformation now? Yes / No]
Star’s lips curved into a dark, beautiful smile.
"Transform ."
The change began.
A soft pink-silver light started glowing from Star’s body. At first it was subtle, but it quickly grew brighter. The entire gala hall fell silent as every eye turned toward him.
Lirien’s eyes widened. "Star...?"
The light intensified. Star’s silver hair floated as if caught in an invisible wind. His beauty deepened dramatically his skin beca even more flawless, his eyes gained an ethereal glow, and his presence grew heavier, more commanding. Divine Glamour surged through every cell in his body, rewriting and elevating him.
[Evolution 1: Blooming Awakening]
Power flooded him in waves. New strength. New understanding. New possibilities.
When the light finally faded, Star stood transford. He looked the sa, yet completely different. More radiant. More dangerous and More divine.
The entire hall was staring at him in stunned silence.
Star smiled, calm and terrifyingly beautiful.
[Host has undergone the first evolution. You have now reached the fifteenth level. You are on par with legendary beings now. You are exalted above all in the hall]
"Now then shall we?"
He raised his hand slowly and whispered the na of his new Unique Skill.
"Disintegration."
