Blood Awakening: The Strongest Hybrid and His Vampire Bride

Meanwhile, Nikolai and Selene entered the tower. Risa, Nikita and Kumiko gathered in her room, wanting to help Nikolai.

”Nikita, do you really think this is a good idea...?”

Risa’s eyes narrowed.

A slight sense of distrust of the Fenrir heiress who threw a series of daggers, hidden weapons and black bodysuits onto her bed while stripping.

Her idea wasn’t to head into the slums or search for clues in the areas they visited in the past, but rather a special place. ”Mother wouldn’t have mentioned that auction being strange for no reason, you’re my squire so trust me.”

”I trust your mother and you, but my priority is Nikolai and surviving. He gets worried after my pussy is swollen after rough sex... what if something dangerous happens?”

”Hawawa?!” Kumiko, who sat on the sofa, turned bright red upon hearing Risa’s blunt words.

”Don’t be so vulgar, Risa...” Even Nikita’s cheeks became slightly pink, though her eyes narrowed at the nekomata, which caused a tight feeling in her chest.

’Why is he always so passionate with her... and gentle with me?’

Suddenly, Risa’s hand slapped down on Nikita’s shoulder before she whispered. ”Don’t be jealous, I know he loves you dearly.”

”Eh?! Really? Ehehe.... ♡♡”

’In reality, I am jealous of you...’

Risa’s face twisted out of sight, her lips lifting as she revealed her fangs.

’He only just accepted me as his lover, but you’ve been treated so well for the past decade—no even longer than that.’

Nikita wanted to engage the trio in a plan to search for one of the workers at a local event: a mysterious auction run by a subsidiary branch of the Hati family.

”I really think it’s dangerous for us to do this without Nikolai knowing...” Risa thought this idea was stupid despite telling Nikita to be realistic.

”However, I believe that this could be an opportunity for us...” Suddenly, a gentle, graceful voice interrupted the two women.

Kumiko stepped forward, her eyes focused and different from her usual weak self. ”This will help, Sir Nikolai, correct?”

”Miss Kumiko, we do not know the enemies strength, or their plans... what if we get captured and become nothing but weight for him?!”

Risa’s love for Nikolai might seem shallow, but the fire in her chest and the sensation that his voice—and thinking of him—made her feel were intense.

’I cannot become baggage... he told me to be happy and live how I wanted, but if that causes him harm, what should I do mother?!’

Nikita’s eyes squinted.

The words of Risa and Kumiko resonated in her chest.

Though she understood their meaning, nothing would have been dangerous to her if it had not been for Nikolai.

’Risa... I didn’t realise she felt so deeply for Nikolai...’

”Is it really that stupid of an Idea... Mother already helped find the person we need to look for, and we will be armed and able to escape.”

Nikita seemed insistent on this plan, but Risa noticed how much effort and planning she already completed alone.

’No... the enemy isn’t just some street thugs.’

”Although it’s risky, and we have no information on their end goal, even the elders don’t know anything. However, isn’t that why we must take action now? As the future leaders of our generation!”

Kumiko’s golden tails flickered as her body seemed to shine with a golden aura, causing Nikita and Risa to gasp, their eyes widening.

’Was this girl always so vocal?’

’This fox... she’s into Nikolai I can feel it!’

Risa thought Kumiko was strange, but Nikita narrowed her eyes and bit her teeth together, convinced that Kumiko sought a relationship with Nikolai.

’I want to pay back Sir Ivan for his help... and if Sir Nikolai can truly help me, then I will help him no matter the cost... I do not have much time left anyway.’

In reality, their minds weren’t quite in sync, but it didn’t matter.

”Then, if we are really going to do this, we need to discuss it a lot.” Kumiko stepped toward the bed and grabbed two bodysuits, the latest defensive material created by the Tepes clan.

”First, we need to know about the type of person we need to meet, or capture to gain suitable information, because if we capture a useless bell boy, what will he know?” The way Kumiko spoke with such a clear and elegant voice caused Risa and Nikita to recoil.

’She’s like a princess...’

Nikita shook her head, trying to suppress her feelings of inferiority, the dark clouds of desire that grew whenever women came close to her beloved.

”Before that, we should ensure that we take roles we are most suited to. I am fast, very fast... so I will infiltrate.” Risa grabbed Kumiko’s last bodysuit with a deep sigh.

—Haah~

”I will take care of support. With my subordinates, we should be able to help create a distraction so that you can get away in time.” Nikita bit her lower lips, a little irritated that she couldn’t sneak inside, but understanding that Risa was the best, she accepted this plan.

”Then I will pretend to be attending the event and listen for rumours, though I cannot fight well yet, or run fast like Risa... I can do this.”

With a flicker of golden light, the aura wrapped around Kumiko before her lovely face rapidly matured into a sensual and peerless beauty, with a beauty spot beneath her eye and sharp green eyes filled with mystery and allure.

”From a princess to a queen...”

”We cannot let Darling see her like this...”

Risa and Nikita gasped.

The tall, slim beauty with nine tails flicked her hips, causing her bountiful chest to sway—larger than even Selene. This glamorous transformation caused Risa and Nikita to gaze at each other, touching their chests, before the room turned dark.

’I lost...’

’She’s too big...’

”Nikky, Risa? What’s the matter?”

The soft voice, now deeper and slightly closer to Nagisa, caused Nikita’s spine to tingle as she stood up straight.

’Mother?!’

”Uhm... is this some kind of magic?” Risa asked, her voice stiff and a little curious about her competition that was slowly leaving her shell.

”Ah.. this?” Kumiko’s lips curled into a sharp smirk, different... like a sneer, the atmosphere and aura from a cute and gentle fox to a seductive man-eating witch. ”It’s my mature form... because of my bloodline I cannot reach it naturally and have to use an illusion to show it. How? Am I pretty?”

The cute actions of Kumiko didn’t change, so the image of a glamorous and sexy woman, taller and more plump than Nagisa, caused Risa and Nikita to almost vomit blood.

’Too destructive...’

”I can also do this! Hap!”

—Woosh!

Immediately, the golden light flickered like a streaming aura, and her body started to blur... suddenly, four different foxes, all in her alluring adult form, stood, swaying their hips with a seductive flick as if her sex appeal was inborn.

”Oh shit...”

”Is it amazing? I thought it was a little plain...” Kumiko touched her cheek, and a second later, the clones copied her, all showing a unique look.

”Are they all alive?! Why do they look slightly different?”

”Ah...” Kumiko blushed before she looked at the others, the clones returning the favour before they vanished.

—Poof!

”To be honest, that’s part of the special technique... to make it harder to detect when in battle, attacked or trying to hide... the clones will take action using my subconscious thoughts and feelings to keep the main body safe.”

”In battle?! Can they fight? How strong?” Nikita no longer focused on the adult Kumiko’s looks or threat but rather became excited at the idea of learning to copy the amazing technique that reminded her of Eastern ninjas.

’It’s an amazing technique. I can understand Nikita’s interest... but what if she used it during sex?’

Risa’s realistic worry made her face turn red. She realised how stupid her worries were before slapping her face and taking a sharp breath.

”How much power can you use while fighting with just clones?”

Kumiko’s face looked slightly pink.

Honestly, it was the first time she had friends like this. In the past, nobody had spoken to her or treated her like a burden because of her bloodline.

’If it wasn’t for spending so much time close to Sir Nikolai... I couldn’t even use this technique without vomiting blood and feeling as if my body was stabbed by sharp blades...’

The truth was that their bloodlines began to interact the moment they started spending time together, though this was a temporary solution... Kumiko didn’t take it for granted and instead wanted to show her gratitude.

’Thanks to him and Sir Ivan, I can live a normal life... the agonising cramps in my stomach... and feeling like someone poured fire in my throat has vanished!’

”I wonder... should I speak in the terms of Sir Nikolai?”

”Ah... you mean the physical force thing?” Nikita nodded—since they became closer to him, they learned something useful for him using his Báthory bloodline, which, thanks to having sex with him, Selene, Risa and Nikita all gained.

’It’s actually strange how we all gained the skill... Mother said it took her a year to gain father’s Fenrir bloodline skill...’

Though much weaker, they could accurately gauge a person’s Mental and Physical Force, but not the accurate details.

”Please... can you check me now?” Kumiko blushed and stepped forward.

Nikita nodded. Her eyes flickered with a golden light. She focused on Kumiko and narrowed her gaze, her pupils shrinking and dilating multiple times.

”Your main body is at roughly 400 physical and 700 mental... wow!”

”The clones?” Risa asked, curious about the limits of her skill.

”Don’t rush me! Ah! My eyes feel dry and sting!” Nikita rubbed her eyes while their corners looked a little pink and sore.

The judgement for her clones was quite simple: maybe the higher a person’s strength, the more difficult it would be. ”Each one seems to be around 100 Physical and 175 Magical force... that’s pretty good.”

Risa tapped her lips, ”Around 25% of your full power... so in the future they will become more useful, can you summon less and make them stronger?”

”I haven’t tried, but I can...”

Thus, after a period of testing, Kumiko could actually create a single clone with roughly 90% of her strength, but if she created two, they would match 50% of her full power. It didn’t make sense at first, but Kumiko finished.

”Maybe it’s harder to completely copy my full power compared to something only half as strong? There might be something special in that last amount of power I cannot copy... Maybe it’s the blood art itself that stops it from being stronger than me to avoid any issues?”

”That makes sense... with all the strange and evil monsters and techniques in the world, maybe someone could turn your clone against you and this is a fail safe?”

Risa’s hunch became true.

When Kumiko tried to attack herself seriously with her clone, it vanished instantly.

’But when she wanted to use them to train... nothing happened.’

”Then, shall we begin? I will attend the auction with my clone, since we can share vision. Fufu.”

All of a sudden, Kumiko’s power, worth and confidence seemed to have transformed. Thanks to Risa and Nikita’s support, the trio began their plot to sneak into the auction.
