Lucian quickly sat up from i's lap and attempted to stop Kiana, but the words stuck in his throat as he watched her throw herself into the so-called 'evolution ritual' with a face full of solemn devotion, moving her head up and down above his crotch in a rhythmic manner without stopping or caring about her surroundings.
Feeling his 'little brother' enveloped by the soft, warm sensation of Kiana's mouth, he couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling, while the words at his lips were forcibly swallowed back down.
'Dammit, fine...'
Since things had already co this far, there was no reason for him to refuse Kiana's enthusiastic efforts.
"i, I'm tired. Hurry up and help !"
Kiana suddenly stopped and called out to i for help, her gaze pure and utterly free of any impure intent.
"Kiana, this isn't right, this is—kyaaa!"
Before i could finish her words, Kiana grabbed her wrist, and with a sharp tug, i, caught completely off guard, was dragged by brute force and lost her balance, falling before Lucian's crotch.
In that instant, a long, vertical shadow was cast across her face.
i stiffly turned her head, looking at Lucian, who showed a trace of embarrassnt.
"Don't force yourself," Lucian said, smiling awkwardly. "You should go back to your room first. I'll explain things to Kiana."
Originally, he had planned to let the atmosphere build with i and then take things a step further, but who would have expected Kiana to pull off a direct tactical insertion?
It completely disrupted his plan, so at this point, forcing a proper and conservative woman like i would not have been appropriate.
However, what ca next was sothing Lucian truly had not expected.
"I… I'm not forcing myself…"
i spoke softly before imitating Kiana's so-called evolution ritual.
Seeing that things had already reached this point, she was not about to retreat and allow Kiana to monopolize Lucian all by herself.
Lucian, feeling his 'little brother' wrapped by a different mouth, simply sighed, then remained lying flat, letting the two won do whatever they wanted with it.
'Kiana, I didn't dote on you for nothing...'
He naturally understood i's mindset at this mont, so her willingness to go this far ant he could push his luck a little further, thanks to Kiana.
A few minutes later, Lucian, unable to hold the fire within him any longer, teleported directly into his room, taking both i and Kiana with him, one arm around each of them.
"Kiana, i, let's do the next step of the evolution ritual."
Not long after these words dropped from Lucian's mouth, whimpers and moans began to resound throughout the room.
===
Early the next morning, the so-called evolution ritual finally ended in complete success.
Kiana lay naked on the bed, her small face flushed red, with fine beads of sweat dotting her temples.
"Master... i..." Kiana panted lightly, her face brimming with excitent. "We succeeded! I felt it! My power seems to have… gotten a bit stronger?"
"Yeah, it succeeded..."
Lucian nodded in agreent, feeling satisfied with the result.
How could Kiana not have grown stronger?
He was, after all, an Emanator of both Abundance and Elation, so the blessings he now bestowed were far stronger than when he had only given the blessing of Abundance before, making the already strong Kiana even stronger.
Lucian glanced at the book that had fallen to the side, then looked at Kiana's innocent, excited expression of 'successful evolution,' and finally at i, who was too embarrassed to even raise her head.
He had to admit, the way things had unfolded the night before was completely absurd, as he realized that he had actually been 'researched' by an idiot using a hentai comic that had been wrapped in a typical shounen comic.
Of course, he had no objections to this and was, in fact, quite satisfied with the outco, which had ended up in his favor.
"We really did get stronger…"
i buried her head in Lucian's chest and murmured in surprise as she felt the condition of her body.
Like Kiana, she had also felt the new power swirling in her body, especially the warm energy in her lower belly—it truly had a vigorous vitality. At first, she had thought Kiana had been tricked by Kyuusyou's book, but it turned out that one really could grow stronger by performing that so-called evolution ritual.
"i, I'll be honest, sleeping with you was my plan from the start," Lucian said with a faint smile, openly admitting his original intention as he gazed at i. "Kiana was just the unexpected variable, so even if she hadn't shown up, I would've eaten you clean that night."
When i heard the words 'eaten you clean,' she shyly leaned even closer into Lucian's arms instead of getting angry.
"I'm willing to be eaten by you..."
i whispered softly, looking gentle and dependent.
Seeing her like this, Lucian had never imagined that, when Acheron was emotionally expressive, she could be this tender and endearing, completely different from her emotionally detached version in the future.
"Oh no, I have to hurry and return Sister Kyuusyou's book, or she'll get mad!"
Kiana suddenly sat up and exclaid in panic, showing no trace of embarrassnt at her bare body being seen. In less than a minute, she finished dressing, then grabbed the borrowed book and ran out of the room.
Seeing the closed door, Lucian did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Even though Kiana had a special origin and called him 'Master' every day, everyone in the house treated her as a living, normal person—like a sister, like family—which was a good thing.
Truthfully, it was not really unexpected.
Kiana was, after all, a variant of Kiana Kaslana, the protagonist of Honkai Impact 3rd, so she undoubtedly had her own unique charm and aura that could attract others.
"I should go make breakfast. What would you like to eat?"
i asked shyly, slightly raising her head to look at Lucian.
"Anything. I will eat anything you make."
Lucian replied while gently kissing i's forehead.
"Mm..."
i nodded with a smile, got up, dressed, tied her long hair into a ponytail, and then left in a hurry without looking at Lucian again, clearly still embarrassed.
Just like that, Lucian was the only one left in the room, lying on the bed and staring at the ceiling in a daze.
"Uhh... the script is still not done?"
Lucian blinked his eyes and muttered in wonder.
He had thought that once he had won Acheron over in both mind and body, the script would end, considering that he had done everything he could. Her holand was safe, her people were alive, her sisters had all survived, far away from the Shadow of IX, and her body and mind had also been claid by him.
Given that, what condition was still unt?
"Hahh..."
Lucian couldn't help but sigh helplessly.
Evidently, while the previous scripts had all ended under similar conditions, this ti was different. Because the System never gave a clear indicator of what he should do to complete scripts, it truly beca a nuisance.
'Could it be that the other eleven also have to...?'
Lucian pondered seriously, calculating silently.
A few minutes later, after tidying up and getting dressed, he went downstairs and sat in the dining room to wait for i's breakfast.
Just as he sat down, Kiana rushed over like a gust of wind, her face full of pride.
"Master! I returned the book! Sister Kyuusyou was still sleeping, so I quietly put it back—she definitely won't notice!"
"Mm, well done."
Lucian nodded with a smile, patting Kiana's head as if coaxing a child.
In front of him, Kiana was nothing but a pure, innocent child, after all.
Receiving praise made Kiana even happier, as shown by how she bounced over, leaned close, and looked at Lucian with sparkling eyes.
"Master, that evolution ritual last night was amazing! I feel full of power all over my body! Let's do it again tonight, okay?"
i happened to be carrying over the breakfast tray, so when she accidentally heard this, her hand trembled, and the milk on the tray almost spilled.
"Kiana!" i exclaid with sha, her cheeks flushing as she shot Kiana a scolding glare. "Don't talk nonsense!"
"I'm not talking nonsense, i!" Kiana retorted, blinking innocently. "It really was amazing! You got stronger, too, didn't you? Didn't you like that feeling?"
Kiana's earnest expression as she reasoned left i at a complete loss for words.
Truth be told, she did like it, but she couldn't just keep saying that kind of thing out loud all the ti.
Needless to say, it was probably ti to properly teach Kiana so common sense about that kind of thing. Back when she had just joined this family, no one had thought in that direction, so no one had taught her about it, but now things were different.
Given that Kiana had already done the deed with Lucian, it was necessary to properly teach her so common sense. Otherwise, she would keep talking about those things anyti and anywhere, as if they were wholeso morning exercises, full of purity and enthusiasm.
Seeing i's mix of sha, anger, and helplessness, Lucian could not help but chuckle.
As the banter between i and Kiana continued, the other won gradually gathered in the dining room.
i kept her head down and quietly served the food, doing her best to avoid everyone's gaze. Kiana, on the other hand, was brimming with energy as always, chattering with everyone.
However, to i's horror, Kiana suddenly announced what they did last night to everyone with an enthusiastic expression.
"By the way, I got stronger! Last night, Master, i, and I trained together using the book 'Fusion! Light and Darkness as One!'—the results were incredible! Look! I'm getting stronger now!"
Kiana innocently displayed her blessings of Abundance and Elation by opening her shirt and revealing her glowing lower belly.
Seeing this, Lucian couldn't help but roll his eyes and cover his face with his palm.
As expected of the idiot Kiana.
Even though she didn't want Kyuushou to find out about her borrowing the book without permission, she was now practically admitting to it.
"Pfff!"
*Cough!* *Cough!*
Kyuusyou, who was elegantly drinking coffee, choked violently the mont she heard the book title, then started coughing.
"Hey, wasn't that book..."
Himiko muttered in surprise, freezing mid-air with her coffee cup in hand.
"..."
Bianka wore a strange expression and paused while cutting her fried egg.
"You shaless idiot..."
Sirin remarked softly, rolling her eyes to the side.
Ana and Theresa blushed, silently exchanged a glance, then hurriedly buried their heads as they continued to eat.
"Oh?" Wendy raised her brows, then yawned lazily. "What kinda book is it? Does it help with skincare?"
Xuanyuan wore an amused smile, her gaze moving back and forth between i and Kiana before settling on Lucian.
"Boss~" Xuanyuan said teasingly, her smile growing aningful. "Sounds like you had a pretty 'fulfilling' night, huh?"
"Boss! Explain in detail what you three did!" Senti exclaid, putting down her phone. "Count in, too! I wanna be stronger as well!"
Hearing their words, Azta blushed and focused on eating.
Sakura maintained her elegant silence, smiling at Lucian with a knowing look.
Aside from Wendy and Senti, everyone else had read Kyuusyou's so-called 'book,' so they imdiately understood what certain people had been up to the night before.
i, seeing everyone's reaction, felt as if her face were about to burst into flas and wished she could turn invisible on the spot.
'Stupid Kiana! Was that really sothing you could say in public?!' i scolded Kiana inwardly, glancing accusingly at her, then shifting her gaze toward Lucian. 'And why aren't you saying anything?! Say sothing!'
Lucian, thick-skinned as ever, calmly ate his breakfast as if nothing had happened, ignoring i's accusatory stare and the aningful looks directed at him.
*Tap!*
A few monts later, after swallowing the food in his mouth, Lucian tapped the table to get everyone's attention, then spoke calmly.
"Eat first. We'll discuss everything else later."
