Chapter29-The Women's Dream

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

The soul of a formidable deity was spanked in the mental space, but rather than anger, Maldream displayed a face of enjoyment, speaking to Henry, 

"Ah, master's punishment hurts so good."

"Alright, enough of that. Be normal," Henry said, feeling the pleasant sensation of the spanking. 

"Now, what abilities do you have that can be of use to me?"

Maldream pondered for a moment before replying, 

"After becoming a deity, I gained dominion over two aspects: control of dreams and the ability to create Sealing Artifacts."

"Although my true form isn't in your plane, you can use these abilities through my heart. However, since the energy contained in the heart is limited, the Sealing Artifacts you create may be limited in number."

"As for dreams, you can freely enter the dreams of awakeners below Level 60, just by holding my heart. Within a thousand-meter radius, you can access anyone's dreams."

Henry nodded, finding both abilities quite useful. 

Once he left the altar, he planned to experiment with them.

"That's enough for now. You may leave. If I need you, I'll contact you through this heart."

Maldream coyly bowed to Henry, her voice dripping with sweetness, "Then I'll wait for master to punish me again..."

Her figure dissipated in the mental space.

Henry muttered under his breath about her coquettish behavior, then also exited his mental space, finding Fatima looking at him curiously.

"How did it go? Did you subdue her?"

Henry nodded, lifting the heart in his hand with a hint of playfulness.

"From now on, you can call me the master of a deity."

Fatima was shocked; she had only suggested Henry try to subdue Maldream as a hypothetical idea, a possibility in theory. 

For a deity, although the heart is crucial, losing it does not immediately lead to death. 

It simply means a fall from the realm of Ascendant God to that of a general-tier awakener... but that's still better than being controlled by someone else.

Unexpectedly, Henry had persuaded Maldream in just one attempt. 

While the high ranks of the planet were still concerned about the impending arrival of the deity Algado, here was a man who already possessed a god-tier servant.

Fatima looked at Henry with complex eyes and said, 

"Henry, now that you've subdued a deity, you have greater power. If the higher-ups need your help with the arrival of Algado, I hope you'll consider it."

"Of course," Henry nodded. 

"The arrival of Algado is closely related to me. Even though I now have a deity as a servant, my own strength hasn't changed much; it's just an extra card for self-preservation."

Henry was clear about his own position; he was still just a Level 25 awakener, far from the real high ranks. 

To gain an advantage in the struggle against Algado, the help of other general-tier awakeners on the planet was essential.

The two left the cellar together. 

Henry didn't tell the women in his villa about the events in the altar room. 

After all, another deity's involvement could incite fear in their hearts.

...

Late at night, Henry visited Anna and Emily's rooms, engaging in hours of intense activity that left him somewhat weary. 

Carly applied a healing spell on him, which revitalized him immediately. 

However, the two women were exhausted and pleaded for mercy.

Eventually, everyone fell into a deep sleep, but Henry remained as energetic as a bull. "I need to find something to do," he thought.

After some thought, Henry suddenly remembered he could explore the dreams of everyone within a kilometer radius using Maldream's heart.

"I wonder what kind of dreams the women in the villa are having."

Henry took out the heart, which was kept in a box, and held it in his hand. 

Following Maldream's instructions, he attuned himself to the dreams of those nearby.

Suddenly, he entered a colorful dream and saw little Carly, who was fast asleep. In her dream, Carly was still clinging to Henry's neck.

"This little girl is really attached to me," Henry thought with a wry smile, preparing to leave the dream.

But then he noticed something peculiar happening. 

His dream-self was engaged in a vigorous activity, pressing down on a girl who seemed to be Anna.

"What kind of dream is this little one having?" Henry was speechless and promptly exited Carly's dream.

Next, he found Anna's dream and ventured inside. 

In the dream, Anna appeared like a queen, regally seated on a throne.

"She must have been influenced by Queen Adele, playing role-play in her dream," Henry thought, slightly amused. 

He looked at the women under Anna's rule and recognized Emily, Queen Adele, Carly, and Fatima.

Wait... why include Fatima?

Henry was surprised at the extent Anna had expanded his 'harem' in her dream.

After leaving Anna's dream, it was easy for Henry to locate Emily's dream. 

Entering it, he found Emily in her room, her ear pressed against the wall.

"What's she doing?" Henry grew curious and imitated her, pressing his own ear to the wall.

"Ah!"

A piercing scream came from the other side of the wall, causing Henry's face to flush with understanding. 

It must be the sounds of him and Anna engaged in lovemaking.

"This sweet-looking girl has some not-so-innocent thoughts," Henry mused, realizing Emily had a penchant for eavesdropping on such matters. 

He decided to 'educate' Emily properly in bed sometime soon.

After leaving Emily's dream, Henry was about to stop his explorations when he noticed another dream signal. 

It was coming from the direction of General White Tiger Fatima's house.

Should he see what kind of dream Fatima was having?

After a moment's hesitation, Henry decided to check, curious about any secrets Fatima might hold.

Entering Fatima's dream, he found himself in a young girl's bedroom where two girls, one older and one younger, were playing with building blocks. 

Henry recognized them as young Fatima and Emily.

It seemed that Fatima's affection for her sister was genuine, and her teasing remarks were likely just casual banter.

Henry sighed, inadvertently making a sound. 

Suddenly, the older girl's gaze sharpened, and she looked up, her eyes growing cold as she stared at Henry.

"Henry, how did you get into my dream?"

Caught. 

Henry felt awkward and quickly exited Fatima's dream.

He had forgotten that this dream-viewing ability only worked on awakeners below Level 60. 

Fatima, being a general-tier awakener, was well above Level 80.

He decided to pretend to be asleep quickly. 

If Fatima came knocking, he would act as if he hadn't heard anything.

Henry returned Maldream's heart to its sealed box and hurried back to his master bedroom. 

He undressed and cuddled the sleeping Anna in his arms.

"No more, I really made a mistake, Henry. Go find someone else," Anna mumbled uncomfortably in her sleep, evidently thoroughly convinced of Henry's prowess after his 'education' earlier.

Ignoring Anna's feeble resistance, Henry held her close, and gradually, their struggles subsided, both sinking into a deep slumber.

The night passed without incident.

Upon waking, Henry found Anna still asleep, so he decided to make breakfast for the women. 

Just as he descended to the living room, he noticed a steaming kettle. 

General White Tiger Fatima, with her exceptional posture, sat nonchalantly on the sofa, a cup of steaming tea in front of her.

"Finally awake, I've been waiting for you," she said.

Henry coughed, greeting, "Good morning, auntie. Didn't see you all night. Did you sleep well?"
