Archwizard K's Journey In The Cultivation World

Case 77: A dive into dual cultivation ft. Cosmos.

Case 77: A dive into dual cultivation ft. Cosmos.

''Heh... do you know what herb this is?''

''This one is for headache, I remember.''

''How about that one?''

''That's a special breed. It can kill all cavities in one go. Kierra made that once she overate sweets.''

A few days had passed since Kang Shuren was made out to be the heir of the Heavenly Shura. Just like before, the group had been in and out of Kierra's pocket dimension, going sightseeing here and there in Hanam.

If there was one difference compared to the first day...

[More chaotic. Stop thinking.]

''Hah... hah... how can I swing my sword if I stop using my brain...?''

[It is to make your sword as unpredictable as possible.]

''...''

Not far away from the garden where August and Bai Qing stood, Kang Shuren she could be seen practicing her sword. Besides she was an unfamiliar woman with hair and eyes as black as the abyss.

'Cosmos.'

August narrowed her eyes a bit.

She thought Cosmos was simply Kierra's good friend, but who would have thought that it—no, she could transform into a human like this?

The more women there were, the more Kierra could seduce them with her vixen-like charm, and that would mean less time for August herself. She merely made a compromise to stay beside Kierra, and she didn't at all enjoy seeing these pests getting with her!

Although, this small and harmless-looking Bai Qing was somewhat tolerable.

Shaking off those thoughts for a moment, August inspected the movements that Cosmos was making to teach Kang Shuren. The Heavenly Shura's sword relies on unpredictability to catch the opponent off guard, subsequently making the user get closer and closer to the transcendence stage, where the body and sword became one.

It sounded sketchy at best, and it indeed was.

This sword could be used to best the majority if learned right, yet it was insufficient for overcoming the laws of the universe itself... like how August's reality-bending sword could.

''Heh.''

Immersed in her self-awarded glory, it took her a while to register that Kierra had poked out of her room, now hugging her from behind.

''What's wrong?''

''Recharging...''

August's voice was soft, and Kierra's voice was even softer.

Meanwhile, Bai Qing:

Noticing Little Qing's baffled expression, Kierra hugged her as well. Nothing could go wrong with wholesome skinship!

Even after the kiss, Cosmos's voice held no significance. Anyone could see that she had no affection for Kierra, so the jealousy game was promptly canceled.

It took a minute for the archwizard to recover.

''Ahem... so? Do any of you want to try it with me?''

When Kierra turned to Kang Shuren and Bai Qing, she unexpectedly found August's arms around her waist, not moving.

''What about me...?''

The Sword Empress asked with droopy eyes, sounding like a puppy in the rain. Kierra quickly resolved this by offering her a kiss. For now, it was these two young cultivators' turn.

Surprisingly, they nodded at each other briefly, and both agreed to this proposal.

They knew they were practically trapped in Kierra's web already, so why refuse the opportunity to grow stronger?

However, there was just one problem...

''Please let me go first this once, Little Qing. Haven't I been nice to you all this while?''

''No, no, one should be considerate of their junior, and that is only natural, right?''

Somehow, they were fighting.

A bit amused, Kierra quietly took out her handkerchief and wiped off her lipstick. It was ruined by Cosmos anyway. After making them clean, she gently licked her lips once.

Unknowingly, this action caught the attention of both Kang Shuren and Bai Qing.

Kierra's bare lips were perfectly sized, soft-looking like puddings, and velvety pink like peaches. They seemed so delicious that the two stopped fighting entirely.

Noticing this, the archwizard lifted the corners of her mouth.

''Au, can you sleep separately for tonight?''

This one question confirmed it all. In a way, it was an indicator of what would come that night, and it was also an invitation for the young cultivators.

''Hah... fine. Remember to wash in the morning... and come to me.''

''Of course, fufu.''

Getting the pass like that, Kierra slowly rose to her feet and came closer to Kang Shuren and Bai Qing. She gently gave them each a peck on the cheek before patting their shoulder.

''Dual cultivation... sounds rather boring, isn't it?'' She whispered. ''How about triple cultivation instead?''

gulp—!

An audible gulp sounded.

Before long, they were dragged to Kierra's bedroom—willingly.

Left behind, August could only sigh while looking at Cosmos. Was this beast doing that intentionally?

Either way, it would be a lonely night for the Sword Empress.
