Chapter 455 Revelation*
"Mark of the Seven Sins: Mist of l.u.s.t!"
When the butcher activated his Sins series ability-Sin of l.u.s.t-the mana in the surroundings began to change. A light mist started lingering in the room. Its density increased slowly throughout the pa.s.sing moments.
This was the first time he was using his ability on someone.
Unlike the domain of wrath, this ability"s effects were hidden. The target of this ability wouldn"t know what was going on until it was too late.
The condition for this ability to be triggered was obvious. The butcher needed to feel the sensation of l.u.s.t while he was having s.e.x. On that note, he was glad that he didn"t have to activate the ability by self-harm.
The effects of the ability on the target were even simpler. It turned the butcher"s partners into his slaves without infringing on his soul. It only infringed on his target"s souls, leaving a permanent mark on them that attested to his owners.h.i.+p.
The Mist of l.u.s.t generated by the ability transformed emotions of l.u.s.t into foreign mana. There were almost no differences between this type of mana and native mana except for the fact that it didn"t contain the world"s will.
Only the butcher was able to see the mist. His targets would only feel that every ounce of their l.u.s.t was getting extracted from them. Yet they would find that they were more turned on than ever. The sense of pleasure, bliss, and an o.r.g.a.s.m would increase many a fold when the butcher and his target were surrounded by the mist.
When the targets felt bliss through s.e.xual release, that was the time when their souls would be at their most vulnerable. This was the time the ability would show its effect and etch the butcher"s brand of owners.h.i.+p on the target"s soul.
The owners.h.i.+p brand created by the sin ability would be such that it would blend in with the target"s soul without leaving any trace or obvious after-effects behind. It would only affect the target"s primal consciousness, making them see the owner of the l.u.s.t brand in a different light.
The mist would increase as the target and Eren expressed their feelings of l.u.s.t. Brands would be created using the target"s very emotions. Therefore, it wouldn"t be something their soul would be averse to. In this way, the brand will blend into the slaves" souls, making it near impossible for them to break free.
Varhan found it ironic that he needed to use the ability on orc ladies to help him get his hands on the monster slave maker artefact. His ability had a limited reach, whereas the artefact was essential for controlling the horde of monsters.
The main advantage of the Sins series ability was that the butcher would gain absolute loyalty in addition to complete control. Even the strictest of mana binding contracts wouldn"t give him the loyalty part. And he didn"t think even the artefact would come close.
The Sin of l.u.s.t was capable of changing the very soul of Eren"s targets. Plus, unlike the mana binding contracts which couldn"t exceed a certain number or the artefact which was limited by the rank, the butcher"s ability had no such limitation.
As long as the ability was triggered at the right point, no matter whose soul was privy to the ability"s effects, they would get branded. It held true until the target lacked the soul sense to stop the brand from taking over their souls.
In short, as long as the targets didn"t oppose the brand with their soul sense, Varhan would be able to turn any partner he sleeps with into his slave.
*******************
Sharog"s p.u.s.s.y was wrapped around Varhan"s d.i.c.k as he kept on pounding her while she rode his hot rod. She would use her muscles to squeeze his d.i.c.k with her walls. In the meantime, he would squish her erect buds with his fingers, squeezing her big jugs.
"Aaaaah!
Aaaaaaah!
Harder….!"
Sharog"s seductive moans echoed in the s.p.a.cious room. Due to the mist"s effects, she felt that this was a completely different level of pleasure she had never experienced before.
Varhan kneaded her velvety b.u.t.t mounds with both his hands. Then he started slapping them with his hand. The deed created new waves of pleasure and bliss in Sharog"s mind.
The butcher sensed that the Orc Lord was about to come, and thought that it was the appropriate moment to brand her. He grabbed her buns with both his hands from either side, drove his d.i.c.k deeper into her slippery hole, and executed the branding process.
"Aaaaaaaaaaa!"
Sharog released a sensuous moan before cras.h.i.+ng onto Varhan"s body while his d.i.c.k was still inside her. She had closed her eyes.
Swoos.h.!.+
Varhan watched as the mist began to converge into the form of an abstract rune before disappearing into Sharog. Immediately, she felt that something about her had changed. Something deep.
She looked at Varhan and realised from within that this was no orc she had slept with. Yet, she felt that he was the most significant person in her life. And she would do anything to please him.
"Ver… no… My…. My Lord... who are you?"
Sharog asked Varhan with a bewildered face. The latter responded by asking her another question.
"This building… how safe is it?"
The lady Orc Lord immediately understood what Eren had meant when he asked that question. The connection she had formed with Eren using the l.u.s.t brand was just like the connection the latter had with his demon beasts with a few minor differences. So even when he had asked the question in human language, she understood it clearly.
The connection allowed both of them to sense each other"s thoughts and emotions. It also allowed them to communicate with each other without using ID communication. Now the butcher didn"t even need Alephee"s translations.
"My Lord... n.o.body would come to this building without my permission. Plus the security array is working and under my control. There"s n.o.body in the building apart from me, you, and the twins upstairs."
Eren nodded before starting to shapes.h.i.+ft into his normal human form. He didn"t like being an orc after all. The body"s centre of gravity had made him unable to move the way he wanted to. Both during his duel with Borul and even right now when he was "duelling" with Sharog, he felt like he was not being himself. So he decided to find his comfort zone once again now that the coast was clear.
"Hu…. Human. My lord… you…. You are human.
No, wait... You look human, but you"re not. How?"
