Consolation

Adonis sat on the couch, and Lena sat beside him, leaning on his shoulder. He then patted her head.

They enjoyed this moment for a few seconds before Adonis said, "Lena, why do you look disheveled?"

Lena stopped and looked up at Adonis with hurt eyes.

"You already know..."

Adonis was confused, but he then remembered last night.

"Was it because of Mazarine?"

Lena groaned into his arm and reluctantly said, "...Yes..."

Adonis didn't know what to say; he knew if he tried to justify it, it wouldn't make Lena feel better. Luckily, Lena gave way to a good answer.

"I got cucked...and I like it...it's so...humiliating."

Adonis let Lena pity herself for a few minutes.

"Ok, hear me out; that's not bad."

Lena looked up at Adonis with a WTF face.

"I mean that it's not horrible to like that; everyone has a dark or depraved thing that they enjoy. Getting cucked is yours."

Lena stared at Adonis with a dead expression. But she thought about it.

"For example, Mazarine's was pain. She liked being hurt and being called degrading titles' she's a masochist."

Lena thought about it thoroughly and remembered how Mazarine was panting and looked desperate for Adonis.

"...Ok, since you say everyone has depraved things they enjoyed, what's yours?"

"...Huh?"

"You must have a dark thing you enjoy, so what is it!?"

Adonis tried to think of any messed-up thing he liked. He then remembered one thing that he wanted to take to his grave.

"Uuuuh...there is one thing..."

"Tell me!" Lena said with curiosity and excitement.

Adonis didn't want to say it, but to make Lena feel better, he was willing to spill some of his darkest secrets.

"I...fantasize about my sisters..."

Lena's curiosity and excitement slowly turned into shock, while Adonis felt more embarrassed.

"D-doing what?"

"You know...being in...sexual situations..."

Adonis had never felt more embarrassed in his life, and Lena had never felt more surprised in her life.

"That's even worst than mine!!!"

"Yeah...I know..." Adonis looked away in shame.

Lena was astonished by her lover's depravity; she saw the shame and despair on his face. She smiled and hugged Adonis tightly.

"Don't worry; I love you all the same~♥"

"Thank you, Lena..."

"Oh! How about this~? I act as one of your sisters and you can do whatever you want to me~" Lena whispered in Adonis's ear.

Adonis shivered at this but never rejected the idea. Lena felt satisfied with teasing her boyfriend.

Lena sat down on Adonis's lap; and said, "All right, you admitted you're a sister-lover; therefore, I will admit...that...I am a...cuck..." Lena said, a bit dispirited at the truth.

Adonis hugged Lena and said, "I'm glad you've accepted it."

Lena felt her heart beat faster at Adonis's acceptance and knew she is falling for him even more.

"We are only sticking with Juniper for now, OKAY!!?"

"Understood!"

Adonis and Lena then talked about his fight and how the match went.

"It's good that you guys won without us," Lena said with relief.

"Yeah, by the way, was last night really the reason you didn't come today?"

"Oh! No, I actually reached Ascent Stage."

"Oh! Cool."

"Yeah..."

"..."

"..."

"Wait, YOU REACHED WHAT?!"

"Ascent Stage, no need to scream."

So, Lena explained that she was in Refinement Stage 5-Spark for a while and recently reached her limit. After last night, her mana started to go out of control and she had to stabilize it by cultivating. When a person reached their limit, the mana they have starts to go out of control if they don't reach the next level.

"Why didn't you do it beforehand?"

"I was too focused on loving and fucking the stud of a lover I have."

Adonis felt a bit of a confidence boost but still waited for the Sect Leader to return to tell her the news. Needless to say, the Sect Leader was pleased and annoyed at the same time. She felt good about her disciples reaching Ascent Stage but was irritated about how they are doing this at the worst possible time.

The Sect Leader put Lena in their training to get her to 1-Spark as fast as possible.

In the Templar Sect's Hotel,

"H-hey, Byron."

"Hm? What is it?"

One of the Templar Sect's disciples was a minion of Byron's and would tell him all significant news.

"Umm, you remember your...fifth brother?"

"Ah! Do you mean the trash of my family?

"Y-yes, you see...uummm..."

"Hey!! Stop stuttering and tell me already!"

"Yo-you're fifth brother defeated his opponent in two seconds!!!"

"...What."

"It's being talked about by everybody! About how a person with fiery red hair and yellow eyes defeated their opponent in world record time."

Byron was in disbelief by this, he thought that his minion was lying to him but they had no reason to tell him a lie, especially one like this.

Byron then walked out of his room and was going to the stairs.

"B-Byron! Where are you going?!"

"I'm going to talk to my family."

The minion shivered at the mention of his family since this minion always feared power, that's why they were so nervous around Byron all the time.

Byron walked out of the hotel and reached a more luxurious hotel. He told the staff who he was and they immediately told the Lock family about this, after a while, a staff member led Byron to their room.

He walked into the Lock families room and saw what he thought was a fancy house, as the room contained many valuable and intricate things, golden pillars along the walls, the best furniture in the current time, and a high view of the entire city.

Byron was amazed for a bit and refocused his attention to find his family. Luckily, it didn't take long before his fraternal twin sister came into the living room.

"Hello, sister!"

"Uuugh...why are you here?"

The fourth sister spoke in disgust at her fourth brother.

"C'mon, can't I come to visit my family~!"

The fourth sister, not willing to deal with crap right now, got straight to the point.

"Why are you here, fourth brother?" The fourth sister said in a serious voice.

Byron's face turned serious in an instant.

"Tell me, what happened during our trash brother's fight?"
