Level 5

A few hours after cumming into unconsciousness, Laura woke up feeling extremely hot and bothered. This was a surprise to her because ever since she'd bonded with Alex, she was in prime condition every morning.

"Alex? What's going on?" She asked as she looked at Alex who was sitting at the side, "Mhm~" Before he could answer her, Laura felt a rush of hot blood going throughout her body and making her feel extremely turned on.

"Am I on some sort of aphrodisiac?" She asked as she panted with arousal. Soon, the burning pleasure started receding a little.

"Well, kind of… The blood bond ended up getting messed up…" He told her.

"In what— Mhm~" Within a minute that rush of arousal was there again, "What's the deal?" She asked with a sort of urgency as the heat receded a little.

"You're not on any aphrodisiacs. At least not exactly. When I bonded with your blood, I bonded with the intention of staying bonded with your blood. But blood cells aren't immortal. They die and more are produced by the bone marrow. You understand what I'm going with here?" He said.

Laura nodded while suppressing the arousal that kept rocking her body every minute.

"I can make it such that your blood cells don't die and extend their life cycle but that would come with its own problems. The new blood that's produced won't have anywhere to go. And what happens after that? Your arteries rupture due to having too much blood. And that's not to mention that I'm still not bonded with your newly produced blood."

"Fuck…" She shivered again as the heat rushed through her body.

"I do have a solution but that involves me merging with your skeleton," Alex told her and she understood where he was going with this.

[Don't you have this problem with my skin?] Laura decided to communicate telepathically since it was getting annoying to speak while feeling a rush of pleasure every few seconds.

"That's because the cells that create new skin cells are also parts of the 'skin' that I merged with. Your newly created skin cells don't have the same problem as your blood. Not to mention that skin cells die much slower than blood." He patiently explained to her while stopping himself from putting her under him and having his way with her. Seeing her sweaty body as she tried to suppress her arousal was a big turn-on.

[Can you even merge with my skeleton?] She asked. It was natural that she was skeptical since her entire skeleton was made of an Adamantium-Vibranium alloy.

"Don't worry about that. Do you want me to start?" Alex was confident. Merging with her blood required him to be concentrated since it was something that was constantly in motion. He had to merge with her pumping blood as it went through her body at every second. The skeleton was easy. The fact that it is a metal made no difference to Alex.

[Sure. I can't exactly function normally while feeling this kind of unending arousal all the time.] Laura agreed pretty quickly.

"Perfect." He said as he got on top of Laura's body and kissed her again. He started toying with her body and made her cum within a few seconds. Her arousal that she was suppressing was also out with full force as her climax came in the form of an explosive squirt.

The next couple of minutes were spent in foreplay as Laura reached a climax every minute due to the effects of Alex merging with her blood constantly.

Finally, when he started merging with Laura's bones, her reaction was similar to what happened when he was merging with her blood but even more intense.

The whole process lasted about 8 hours this time and he knew that Laura had gone through way too much this time and would need at least a couple of days to get back into shape, both mentally and physically.

But the upside was the huge boost that her prowess received, which translated to his own strength increasing too.

{ «Status- Host #6»

«Name: Laura Kinney (X-23) (Earth-Z)»

«Bonding Rate: 22%->26%»

«Bonding Level: 4->5»

«Powers: Superhuman Physique (100->200 Tons)— Cosmic Healing Factor— Bone Claws (Vibranium-Adamantium Alloy)— Blood Berserker— Melee Mastery— Weapons Mastery— Espionage Mastery»

}

After reaching Level 5, her physique strength directly doubled as she also reached the 25% threshold in the Bonding rate, passively producing 0.2 EP per day.

Along with that the Blood Berserker skill also received enhancements.

‹Blood Berserker›:: When the symbiote forms a Level 4 bond with its host, it can supercharge the blood that's flowing through the veins of the host and increase the physical stats of the host. But there is a period of weakness after the merger process where the stats are halved from the base stage. Augmentation: 2x at Lvl 4, 3x at Lvl 5. Cooldown: 24 Hrs at Lvl 4, 18 Hrs at Lvl 5.

After this skeleton merger, Alex was sure that Laura would be able to seamlessly use his ‹Intermediate Lightning Manipulation› to the fullest and would be able to use it very well.

'I might as well just devour Thor after I get strong enough so that I can get his Lightning Divinity…' Alex thought. From devouring Electro to targetting a god as strong as Thor, Alex's ambitions had grown to very high levels along with his strength.

{ «Skill Acquisition»

«EP: 20->15» (Ch-80)

«EP Generation: 1.2->1.3/Day»

«Owned Skills: ‹Superhuman Grade Physique Creation (110->200 Tons)› ‹True 6th Sense› ‹Intermediate Lightning Manipulation› ‹Weak Magic Affinity— Mana Sense› ‹Host of the Scarlet Witch› ‹Lesser Heat and Sound Resistance› ‹Biological Manipulation› ‹Basic Matter Transmission› ‹Advanced Energy Transmission› ‹Camouflage› ‹Host Enhancement› ‹Devour› ‹Copy›»

}

The biggest benefit of Laura's recent strength explosion was that this was just her base physique. After Alex's ‹Host Enhancement›, her physique would directly hit Low Cosmic Levels as she really would be able to level buildings.

‹Host Enhancement›:: Enhances the host's base stats and auxiliary powers that the host of the symbiote possesses. Passive skill (Can toggle on and off). Auxiliary power enhancement depends on factors like the type of the powers and compatibility with those powers. Enhancement increases with the level of the bond— 2x at Lvl 0, 3x at Lvl 1, and 4x at Lvl 2, 5x at Lvl 3, 6x at Lvl 4, 7x at Lvl 5.

With Laura's passive enhancement due to the bond, her physique strength was directly in the Low Cosmic Levels with a 7 times enhancement. Alex was excited to have her give her new strength a run.

With everything done and taken care of, Alex decided that he wanted to test out his new prowess too. As he took care of Laura, he formed a clone and let it go out to test out his new prowess. He felt that he should know where he stands in the general scheme of things so that he doesn't get too arrogant.

He slipped out of the bunker and decided to start with the most basic ‹Grunt Class› abominations.

It was currently early morning, the time of sunrise. This meant that the abominations were currently going around en masse. So it was easy for Alex to spot an abomination just as he got out of the bunker.

He didn't have to be afraid of being captured by the abominations as he could terminate that body with a single thought so it wasn't an issue even if he was ganged up on.

'Fuck!" Alex ran at the abomination at full speed and realized that he couldn't control his speed well enough. This was a surprise to him since he was actually in full control of these physiques. There was no such thing as being unfamiliar with his body for him. But true to his identity as a symbiote with a supercomputer for a brain, he easily got used to his new strength within seconds.

Then he rushed to the abomination and threw a punch at it. There was no technique to that punch. It was just raw strength.

With that single punch, the abomination directly flew a hundred meters away and collided with another abomination. This one was a ‹Buff Grunt Class›.

Alex wasn't afraid as he approached them and attacked again. The initial abomination that he'd hit was already fully regenerated from the damage that Alex's attack dealt it.

Since there were now two enemies, Alex had to start using his technique, otherwise, he would just keep getting him.

These abominations had extremely good reflexes so he had to work hard to actually beat them. Especially since he and Laura hadn't even tried to fight a ‹Buff Grunt Class› yet. They weren't sure if they had any abilities.

Alex spent about 10 minutes familiarizing himself with his new strength and messing around with the abominations. it was just the buff one that he had to be wary of. The basic grunt had long been killed by a heavy kick to its head.

Soon, he decided to take care of his opponent since he'd gotten more than enough of an idea about his newly enhanced strength.

Soon, he fought and countered its attacks for some time while looking for an opportunity. When he got it, he pressed his hand against the abomination's back and said, "Disappear." A condensed ball of Chaos energy was released from his hands directly into the abomination.

It instantly exploded into a mass of blood and innards as Alex was practically drenched in the abomination's blood.

'Doesn't work for me…' Alex realized that Wanda's intent casting doesn't work for him. It made sense because he wasn't the Scarlet Witch. His relationship with Chaos energy was very weak and he could only manipulate it due to his bond with Wanda.

'Maybe after the level of the bond with Wanda is increased…' He hoped.
