Primordial Villain With A Slave Harem

Before Blossom could strike again, he lashed out with his blade at her which forced my dog-kin to jump off of him and land next to me.

"Blonde! Healing!" Kai barked. A blonde woman in priestly garb stepped forward and her staff glowed as she cast a restorative spell. The gushing wound across his back began to close, though his expression made it clear the pain hadn't fully subsided.

Before the mayhem could settle, my final piece moved into play.

A red-haired woman stepped forward to stand beside me with a scowl of distaste. "I'm sorry to my future victims but I'm in the foulest mood I'd ever been in. You may end up as my unwitting punching bags." Selene decreed in a venomous tone. She was the least effective in close-quarters combat which was ongoing back in the mansion, at least without having my permission to burn it down to her heart's content, so when I asked Ayame and Kaelira if they could spare any members these two ended up being freed. Blossom was also more effective if she could move in and out of the shadows, the disorderly scuffle back at Blackjack's home was not ideal for her either.

"Me and the tree lickers will handle the slaves." Selene grunted before raising her staff aimed at them and cast [Infernal Onslaught], causing flames to coalesce in front of her. With a push of her staff, she hurled the spell toward the group, causing it to streak through the air in the form of a familiar blazing tide of destruction that promised to incinerate everything in its path.

I couldn't help but question inwardly if she'd deliberately cast the same spell she used to burn me alive.

A dark-skinned woman with a fiery red hair of her own stepped forward. She raised her staff to summon a wind torrent that collided with Selene's attack. The two spells met in an explosion of opposing forces as flames and wind tore at each other in a battle for dominance.

The clash ended in a stalemate when both spells dissipated into harmless sparks and breezes.

Selene's lips twitched violently due to her obvious frustration. "Hmm... I can't help but think that this spell is faulty, why don't my intended targets ever fall dead after getting burned to a crisp by it? … At least this time it was defended by a proper spell and not some mythical bullcrap." she grumbled in a tone that was as icy as ever. Well, I say 'ever' if we don't count the times when she was begging me for her life and stuff. Back then she was a lot more animated.

I couldn't help but chuckle inwardly at this backstabbing bitch's antics. It was clear that she was feeling much better about herself now than she did an hour ago, for rather understandable reasons. I may have slightly overshot her punishment considering we were enemies even before she betrayed me, but what's done is done. She will serve the rest of her short but cruel sentence and then become a normal combatant like Cedric and Abudha, though I might still use her as a dummy to test my new spells on from time to time.

Selene was already casting her next spell and had departed from my side, taking the battle with the slave harem to a short distance from us. As my subjugated subject she couldn't cause me harm which was a big issue considering her AoE capabilities, so she needed either me to take my fight away or she had to do it herself.

*Sniff! Sniff!* Blossom inhaled the air. <Master, Blossom smells a foul stench.>

<Yeah, this guy is the buddy of Ian, your previous owner. They often shared meals alongside Grunt, the third lowlife.>

<Oh! Blossom remembers now…!> She growled into my mind. From what I knew Kai had never done anything to Blossom, but it was evident that she still despised his guts.

She wasn't the only one who remembered the other, though, as Kai began stroking his chin. "Hmm… I remember those otherworldly feminine curves. Blonde tail, blonde ears… Aren't you the dog of the fatty? Ever since learning of his demise, I'd been wishing to learn just what happened there. To think you would be dropped right into my lap! I guess I should thank the Goddess for my great fortune."

I never expected him to make such an acute observation considering that Blossom dutifully wore a mask, but her BDSM style battle gear did show off her heavenly features, to be fair.

"Blah, blah, blah! I don't know when we switched to partaking in a friendly picnic, I want to hit the bed and sleep for 40 hours straight, but I can't in good conscience while my home is under invasion. Let's roll!" Blackjack shouted as he lunged at me with a manic grin.

"Red! I leave the grunts to you! Take command!" Kai ordered the dark-skinned woman, who only murmured a low, weak "understood…" In response.

<Blossom, you're not cut out to fight monsters of this level just yet. Disappear into the background and play the role of a harasser so that they can't fully focus on me. Disengage as soon as they turn their attention to you.>

<Blossom understands… Master has to keep her womb full of his Blessed Seed at all times so that she can catch up in levels swiftly and be more useful!> It was an extremely rare occasion as she almost never took such an authoritative tone with me considering that she treated me as the alpha of her 'pack'. Nevertheless, I saw no reason to refuse. <Your wish is my command.>

It was time to conduct a 2v2 with two powerful individuals who were such mighty existences that I could never have hoped to fight against them only a month ago. I truly rapidly gained immense power since my arrival in this harsh but amazing world.
