Epilogue: Dawn Of Aelaranthae Empire

Ae mercenaries marched onto Aelaranthae town in a jubilant mood. As they entered the city, people were hailing, exulting them as they marched toward Aelaranthae’s castle. The spectator stood silent as the body of Rashandur was carried on a wagon, even when he no longer moved, children still cried when seeing him and men wince at the demonic appearance of Rashandur, the skullseeker. The fang of the demonic host and the lifeless eye it had seemed as if it bore the depth of the abyss. 2025-05-29 20:34:32 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 13: Final battle

Alantuile personally knew Altressia as his senior in the military Academy before he dropped out and chose general studies. It surprised him when he saw how ragged she had become. She was the queen, he didn’t think the capital would lose. Was he wrong? If the capital lost, the cultists would explode in numbers and they might become unstoppable.

“Greetings, Queen Altressia I have—”

“Just Altressia. Please, don’t call me a queen. I am not worthy.” Altressia could...

Chapter 12: The Expansion of Aelaranthae Empire

When Ae mercenaries expressed their desire to leave the area, The lord mocked them for their cowardice. However, their contract was done anyway. Velryne could only sigh at the behavior of these entitled nobles. Nevertheless, their goal is to kill the champion so the future of the Aelaranthae Empire could be secured. They didn’t care what these nobles from foreign nations said. Ever since Aelaranthae City-state has begun colonizing the ruins of Lucianne, a city state no longer suited ...

Chapter 11: Strategy

“Alright! First, we need to drive out the competitor! Esteemed Aelaranthae has given us freedom. First, we need to drive a bargain, a promotion! Then, we shall buy their lands!” Alantuile gave the directive to other leaders The Aelaranthae called CEO or chief executive officers. They shall become the director of the appropriate branch of Aelaranthae Company. Silvaris shall be the directors for farming, Petraea for manufacturing, LeAestas for education, and Celestialine for religion...

Chapter 10: Independent City-State of Aelaranthea

For three years, Ae Zir single mindedly took care of Ae Nae. As the season changed, the bump on Ae nae’s body has grown more and more. Now, it has grown to the point that another Aelaranthae might fit in there. The bump had enveloped Ae nae from near her neck, down to her pelvis. The time approached. A slit appeared on the bump and the head of another Aelaranth appeared.  

Ae Nae screamed in her mind as something felt like it was ripped away from her. It was time for ...

Chapter 9: War

The rally from the king was heard by Amantuile and he prepared all of his troops for the upcoming war. LeAestas joined him. However, the king didn’t go to Aelaranthae town. Instead, he went for Lucianne, where Amantuile resides.

Amantuile knew the Aelaranthae couldn’t help. Ae Zir needed to be at Ae Nae’s side until she recovered.  Lucianne was not a military city. It was a cultural and artistic city, even with all the new and strong knights and mages from Aelaranthae ...

Chapter 8: Attack

A few days after the king left, twenty men in black arrived at Aelaranthae Town. They carried a fleam and clyster meant for extracting Aelaranthae’s blood. They snuck into Aelaranthae’s house with great effort. By carrying a ladder, they climbed over the tall fence. However, it was futile for the door that led to Aelaranthae’s room was enforced by living vines, there was no lock for their lockpicking skills. When they drew their daggers and started hacking at the vines, It send s...

Chapter 7: The Call

It has been over twenty years. Even though the Aelaranthae physical appearance did not change in the slightest, their mentality did. They began to yearn. They no longer wanted to watch, they desire to create. To show what they are capable of. The goddess made them powerful and intelligent. They wanted to utilize that.

However, they feel lacking. No matter how strong they were, they felt useless alone. Two is not enough to create their vague grand aspiration. They need another. Th...

Chapter 6: Independence

The talk about independence came back and forth. However, it flew past the Aelaranthae head. They wanted to be free but refused to go into conflict. Moreover, LeAestas diplomats and Amantuile can’t get over the fact that there were only two of these Aelaranthae. Amantuile researched the peddlers and the village chief that has now become elderly. However, no matter how he prodded the Aelaranthae, there were only two. Not more. He thought there was a hidden village full of Aelaranthae ...

Chapter 5: Aelaranthae Academy

Meanwhile, when Amantuile was at the capital, Lotharine had returned to his hometown, LeVerda. He was a mediocre mage, graduated from the Mage Academy with average score. LeAestas values magic above all else, and Lotharine was so mediocre that nobody looked at him as a candidate. So, he opted to work as a knight in another country to feed his family.

He dreamed of becoming a mage who created enchanted weapons. Alas, his score was less than stellar; he had not dared to try. Howeve...

Chapter 4: Lesson

“Amantuile, humans don’t have mana cores. And thus they can’t wield mana unless they used mana core from outside. Your enchanted sword was not used to its full potential.” Ae Nae analyzed Amantuile’s sword.

“Yeah, but I can’t use it well. I am not a mage,“ Amantuile said. He grabbed the sword and the sword was engulfed in fire. But it soon died off.

“Give me your hand. Now, could you feel this?” Ae Nae poked inside Amantuile to raise his sensitivity to m...

Chapter 3: Chalice of Strife

The middle aged count sipped one sip from the chalice he bought from the impudent peddlers. As the peddler said, the water was not poisonous. He feels young and full of energy. It was as if he had returned back to his prime years, when he was the captain of a thousand men in a war.

At first, he bought it for bragging. Through his experience, he knew this chalice was rare. That alone was enough. He would simply track where that specific merchants had gone before to acquire more. H...

Chapter 2: Village

The villagers soon turned the area around the Aelaranthae into a field. Using stone tools and wood, they began building houses. Whenever the Aelaranthae passed, the villagers bowed down in respect. Some even knelt, treating them like lords. The villager knew the Aelaranthae could use mana, similar to the mages in mages tower. Unbeknownst to them, Aelaranthae were even better than mages for they need no catalyst or tools to use magic. The villagers knew they couldn’t possibly win usin...

Chapter 1: First Citizen

The giant flowers bloomed and two Aelaranthae, the creation of the goddess slumbered. Their eyelids began to twitch. The slumber was peaceful, the sun was warm and the gentle breeze seemed to nudge the girls back to sleep. Nevertheless, the time has come for the Aelaranthae to finally awaken.  ;

When one of the Aelaranth woke up and sat on the petal of the flower. she looked around, her eyes finally gazed unto her neighbors. They decided to call themselves Nae and Zir. the f...

A long long time ago, there were two giant buds of a flower that came from the same plant. The buds grew. However, its petals had not bloomed. Yet it started to wiggle, for inside each flower was a fair skinned girl with silver hair and blue eyes. She was a creation made by the goddess as she...

Chapter 4: Daily Adventurer

Cecile overslept. The sun was already high in the sky when she woke up. She looked around; the room still seemed orderly except for the pillow lying on the floor. She thought what happened to her last night was a dream, but the unmistakable stench of her love juice still persisted in the room. Grabbing her clothes, which had avoided the disaster, she went down to ask the innkeeper for a mop.

After cleaning her room, she hurried to the knight order's headquarters to ask for Captain Sheen...

Chapter 5: Tentacle Menace

"Eat!" the bandits tossed some remnants of their meal to the girls. They were on the run, so they hadn't carried much—only two tents and several bags of supplies. The fact that they hadn't untied the ropes binding the girls indicated that they wanted them to eat with their mouths on the ground like dogs. Cecile quickly bowed down and devoured the meat presented to her. Her nutrient levels were in the single digits, even though she had consumed less yesterday. Hiro was relieved that Cecile w...

Chapter 6: Tentacle Unleashed! ❤

Cecile was giddy with excitement. Alex's death was sad; she had thought she could get closer to him and become part of his harem like Nana. But fate seemed to say otherwise. Nevertheless, her party was not wiped out. She even found gold within the bandits' camp. She didn't know why she was spared, but she felt luck was finally in her favor.

After eating five portions of her meal at the inn (she had to pay extra for it), she returned to her room. There was no disturbance from her womb th...

Chapter 7: Twin Tentacle ❤

"Nana…" Rebecca hugged her in her nightgown. Nana was still sad that Alex had died. She cried when Rebecca handed his body to the adventurer's guild.

"Master Alex…" Nana muttered as she accepted Rebecca's hug.

Nana was the daughter of a merchant. When she went to the academy, she promised her father that if she didn't make it as a knight, she would become a concubine of a wealthy and perverted merchant from her father's connections. Her enthusiasm and positivity were soon repl...

Hiro was thankful Nutrient Storage came back as a level-up upgrade. Now that he had become a tentacle, there might come a time when he needed to fight openly. He pondered whether he should take Poison Injection.

However, Nutrient Storage came fir...

Chapter 9: Flee

They didn't get far, both figuratively and physically. The knight's order post was nearby, but when they queried the knights, they were essentially turned away at the door.

"Hm? You were unjustifiably captured by the knights? The knight order has the authority to question citizens. Please return to the said knight order and answer their query."

"They said we killed Alex. We already told them Alex was killed by bandits, but they didn't believe us!"

"So, what did you expect us...

Chapter 10: Interlude

Charles Balto frowned. He was the second son of Count Balto, who would soon inherit his father's title. His father wanted to give the territory to Charles and knight order to Alex. Charles loved math, while his brother loved going out and playing. Even though neither of them was the best, their father saw them as two sides of the same coin and hoped that they would bring prosperity to Balto's domain.

Charles had a good relationship with Alex. However, he hated Balto's knight order with ...

Chapter 11: Stampede

"Hah!" Cecile and Nana stabbed a horned boar right in the head. The spear Hiro gave them was strong enough against normal monsters.

However, despite Hiro eating part of the boar, he didn't gain any new metamorphic tentacle abilities. He wondered why his metamorphic tentacle only allowed him to produce wood and bones. Animals and plants are composed of many different tissues—animals have skin, fangs, horns, nails, scales, and more. Birds have beaks and feathers, for example. Plants too...

Chapter 12: Betrayal

Just before dawn, the girls woke up and made their way to the capital. Hiro hid himself inside them, but through sense-sharing, he could see the four-story buildings scattered across the city, which would have been impossible to build in medieval times.

Rebecca headed straight to the Evesys House without delay. Hiro almost forgot that she was a noble. Despite her being a snotty brat, she didn't actually discriminate against commoners like Nana. Her family's house was quite large. She wa...

Chapter 13: Escape

A sloshing sound echoed as the three girls rose from the ditch and gathered together. After a wet and tiring night, not in a sexual sense, Hiro retreated to their wombs to rest. The night had been exhausting in a way Hiro didn't enjoy; he had seriously thought he might die. Well, perhaps not die in the literal sense—the assassins wanted to capture him alive—but he absolutely didn't wish for Cecile, Nana, and Rebecca to be killed. Even if Rebecca was a snotty brat. Even though Rebecca was ...

Chapter 14: The First Night❤

"Hurray! We're finally free!" Cecile cheered, and Nana smiled with her.

"As long as we don't piss off another noble," Rebecca added. "Let's go to the adventurer's guild tomorrow. We need to start earning money. Our symbiote can't make clothes, and I at least need a bowstring."

"A bowstring? Are you going to ask the tentacle to make you a bow?"

"Hmm… yes. The weapons it's given us keep getting better."

"I see."

"You could do the same too, right, Nana?" Cecile as...

"Whew. That was tiring, but we got the quest. I feel a little bad knowing you had to escort us. Next time, maybe we should only send Nana to the Adventurer's Guild?" Cecile suggested.
