Chapter 181: EN GARDE
"Wait, wait, wait! We can't just go storming their place!" Gwen shouted
Kai looked at her, then at himself, then back at her. "Says who?" He was confident that no one would dare stand in his way. Then again, there was something called pride, so there might be one or two idiots who try to stand up to him.
"Uhh, the rules! Do you know how many people you will make jobless? It's not fair to them." Gwen had a good point. Unfortunately, she was talking to Kai.
"We'll hire them." Emerald chimed in.
Kai smiled. "Problem solved."
"What's up with you, Gwen? You're not the type of person to care about people like that." Sasha said.
"Actually, she is. Did I ever tell you guys about the time she forced me to help Princess Tyria? Ugh, an annoying period in my life. Don't get me wrong, she's cool and all, but she's out of touch with reality." Kai didn't even want to remember that time. Annabeth was hot, though.
"Y-You know the princess?!" Mia, Emily, and Rose were stunned. As commoners, they were barely able to be in the same room with nobility, let alone royalty.
"Oh yeah, you guys are new. Well, it's a long story. I'll tell you some other day. In the meantime, you can use this house as your own, and you're officially welcomed into my harem. Rejoice, mortal."
Kyana snickered. "Heh, look at him acting as if he's actually the son of a god."
"Nadya, are you ready?" He asked
She nodded. Her staff was in her hand, her eyes were serious, and her mana was starting to leak out of her body because of her anger.
"Emerald?" He asked, wondering if she wanted to tag along
"Can I punch Aaron in the face and break all of his teeth?"
"Absolutely."
Emerald stood up, her battle attire forming onto her body, and her heirloom appeared in her hand. "Count me in."
"Sweet! Who else is joining us?"
"I'm in." Kyana stood up.
"Of course I'm joining. I got my hammer ready and everything." Sasha was already decked out in her armor. Kai had no idea how she put that on so quickly, but he didn't think too much about it.
Gwen sighed. "Fine, I'll go with you as well."
"Actually. I have something for you." Kai tossed Gwen a dragon core.
"A DRAGON CORE?! H-HOW DID YOU GET THIS?!" This was everything she wanted. Her dream of becoming a true dragonborne was right in her grasp.
"The skeleton dragon core and the other dragon core from the forest we were in. I combined both of them and extracted all of the negative energy. Now, you can evolve into a...true dragon? I don't know. But have fun."
"Thank you! Thank you so much!" Gwen jumped onto his body and bombarded him with kisses.
"Haha, okay, okay, I get it, you're welcome."
But she still didn't stop.
The other girls started to get jealous, so they joined in as well.
By the time they finished kissing him, Kai was covered in kiss marks.

"Okay, so here's the plan. We'll-"
"CHARGEEEEEE!" Amaya stormed the house, cutting down the guards and busting down the front gate.
"We're under attack!"
"Sound the alarms!"
The guards responded quickly, their numbers rising rapidly as more and more flooded toward the front gate.
"Wow. Their mobilization is very impressive. They aren't a Duke house for nothing, huh." Kai was very impressed.
They all had decided to storm the Cheston house first, since they were the ones who actually did the dirty work and spilled the blood of Nadya's family. Kai had a plan on how they would attack, but Amaya took matters into her own hands.
"Well, the demon king was just here, so it's not surprising that their security is very tight right now." Kyana pointed out.
"True. Alright, ready to join in?" He asked
"Actually, I wanna see how well Amaya is doing. I mean, look at her, she's giving them the works right now."
It was true. None of the guards could even land a blow on her. She was handling them with such ease that getting a baby to walk would look more impressive than the way the guards were fighting.
"Hahahaha! That's it! More!" Amaya slashed a guy's face so badly that his eyes nearly fell out of his face.
She kicked the guard behind her with such force that he crashed into a wall and his body splattered. It was a pretty gross sight, but everyone was so used to images like that that it didn't bother them.
One guy thought it would be smart to tunnel underground using earth magic and pop up from under her, but her cat-like senses were in overdrive, and she jumped into the air, twirling until she was upside down, landed on the guy's head with her hand, then twisted her body, snapping his neck.
"Damn! That was hot. Need her to do that to me, but on my-"
"Duck!"
"Actually, I was going to say Dic-OOOOOF!" A body slammed into Kai's face.
"Pwhahaha! Bullseye!" Sasha laughed loudly, alerting the other guards to their presence.
"Oh great, now they're coming after us." Kyana pulled out her bow and started shooting.
"Taste my steel!" Sasha jumped into the action, clobbering heads with her hammer.
"Wanna join in on the fun?" Emerald asked.
"Nah, you can if you want, tho. I plan on finding the head of the house. Nadya, you join me."
"Okay."
"Hey, let me come too. I want to beat up Aaron." Emerald pouted.
Kai shrugged. "Okay, I have no problems with two beautiful women accompanying me."
Just as they were about to leave, three powerful knights and mages arrived at the scene. They were clearly some of the best the Cheston house had to offer. Everyone could feel their presence, and the hardcore looks on their faces told Kai and his girls that they didn't play around.
"Ooo, more toys to play with. I hope these guys are stronger than this lot." Amaya wasted no time and attacked a knight wearing golden armor. But the moment her claw reached his personal space, she was ejected back into a wall, causing it to crumble.
"Amaya, watch out!" Kai said. "Oh, too late, my bad."
"Really?!" She grumbled, standing back up.
"Haha, she'll be fine. Let's go, guys."
