Glendios Warning: A bit of mature/sexual content.
I was feeling rather happy right now.
Mei Wu had been one fine gal, and she seemed that she was at least trustful enough not to be terrified of me and turn into a stuttering mess. I also have the feeling that she was trying to dissect my actions. She's a very sharp one, and quite vengeful, too, seeing that sadistic smile even when she fell unconscious due to my pollen now that I would take care of that terrified Xie Yu guy.
Still, while the informations about the names of the empires were correct, from what I can recall, and Jun Wu You was apparently ruling the Da Xia Empire, I will need to check on the timeline to see where I stand according to the "plot", if it existed in this reality. That emperor was nearly two centuries old, take a decade or two, when the plot began.
But, that would wait until I deal with this extra first, and I noticed that I was feeling quite vindictive at the moment as I left the unconscious Mei Wu with the Worker Bees.
There was just something very fascinating to how I was reacting to his fear, with glee and amusement that bordered on malice. Do I hate that guy this much?
No, but the answer was rather simple when I look back at it. I was, to put bluntly, a predator of men and women as an Alraune, and I mean that in the sexual sense, since that is what being an Alraune entails.
They are monsters who follow their lusftul desires without restraint, and would, if they liked their usually human prey enough, basically make them their sex slave, draining their energy or sexual fluids, and with their nectars being highly capable of healing stamina and inducing lust at a generally faster rate than the Alraunes will lose energy, the victim will never be able to stop the overflowing lust, nor die, being an endless energy-giving machine that's so utterly broken that even being freed would still leave them as broken as before, if not more so.
Thing is? I never tried to act like my instincts wanted. Partly because I didn't have any human to test said instincts on, and the fact that I wanted my first interactions with sapient races to be positive if possible.
But...
I licked my lips, as I saw him, a mountain of muscles that would have easily been dangerous enough that he could fight against hundreds of armed soldiers in my previous life and win, and now he is just a terrified, crying, and begging for his miserable life.
I had already killed the most troublesome one (Xie Li), and I have one to give me info (Mei Wu), so for this guy...
It would be fine to enjoy myself, right? It would be acceptable to see just how cruel I can be when I am acting like my nature should tell me to, right?
Eyes growing wide like a child who got a new toy, I moved towards that trash (prey) as my mouth started drooling, and my nose smelled that pulsing power in his body. Ripe for taking and being amassed into mine.
"Ah, to think it's this exciting, letting go of my restraints even this once." I spoke, my voice instinctually feeling rather fitting an erotic encounter more than me planning to torture him, though I frankly couldn't feel any remorse about it. Only glee and amusement as I cut off the vines binding him to the tree, only to capture him in my own vines instead, lifting him to my level, face-to-face.
"Ah- ah! Aaaaahhh! Help! Help me! Some-mmmph!" his screams, while giving me pleasant shivers, were still too loud for my preferences. Not to mention that we aren't isolated enough for my liking, so, I gagged him with another vine.
"How cute~! Screaming for help this early~?" I spoke, taking a moment to enjoy his terrified expression, before I swung a thorny vine and cut into his chest, and his wail would have probably been heard for kilometers if I hadn't gagged him.
"Still, who gave you permission to scream~? Honestly, you really should have better understanding of your current adventure with women, you know~ After all, your friend told me how much of a trash you are~!"
I giggled, not even caring that he couldn't understand me, the sheer cruelty I was indulging in was honestly rather liberating. The funny thing was that to me, this felt completely normal and natural. There was no disgust or hatred for what I am doing, even when I know that I once was a human just two weeks ago.
It was natural for me to accept violence, even before I had been reborn. Society after all tends to glorify it. Many movies glorify violence. Almost all anime glorify it. After all, basically every shounen is basically a punchfest where one just hits the opposition so severely they lose consciousness, and in some cases, characters die from it, and it is treated as a dramatic moment.
So, accepting the fact that I would kill others, human or not, was going to happen anyways.
But torture? Sexual assault? Slavery? These, while they might be glorified in some medias, and the mileage of how people react to it may vary, are treated as an utterly horrible thing if taken at face value. Everyone, or more accurately, a lot of people, hate the idea of being seen liking it, much less self-inserting as the asshole doing it. Which is why people put a really, really thin veil on the self-insert's actions through the lens of the reality of the show they write, by hiding that blatant cruelty, sadism, selfishness and possessiveness, with the thinnest of the curtains under the pretense of the main character being 'kind' and 'not like other abusers and slave owners'.
It's also why these chinese stories have the protagonist being a sexual harasser but it is fine because of the period he is in, or that the girls like it actually.
If I was a human, and was punted into this world with only the power to cultivate, no mental changes, or being prepared to fight for my life? I would have been killed when I first met that wolf simply due to sheer shock of actually being in life-or-death scenario. The meeting with the young master would end up with me warming his bed.
Long story short, I am now a beast through and through, and while I can think like when I was a human, I was still not one. I probably never will, and I don't feel any sadness about that. Only amusement at the paradox of me being required to be human-like to reach my full potential, but I would ultimately not be a human.
But, philosophy aside, I would need to have my fun with this poor guy who was thrashing violently against the binds and... crying? Honestly, he was already sobbing since he was awoken, but frankly, what is with this sheer cowardice?
I thought that with their sheer assurance he acted before that he had faced many deadly situations where he survived, thus gettng that "unbreakable" confidence in his young master, or did he only get power and just tortured whoever he felt like it along with that Xie clan's young master? I honestly think that the second is the actual answer.
I know that I am grinning like a mad scientist, and I might or might not be discovering a Dom fetish towards my cute (future) preys from how I am feeling so gleeful my breasts would have started generating nectar with an intensity if I didn't have the bare minimum of control over myself.
My lower body was already drooling, and slowly giving exciting gruttal moans that l loved very much.
"Don't worry, big guy~ you will soon feel so much better~" I whispered, the voice heard despite it being rather quiet compared to his frantic muffled screams, as another vine lashed at him, causing his arm to bleed slightly.
The binds tightened just a bit more as I heard the bones almost breaking, and I moved him in front of my face, making sure to be extra firm on his limbs, touching his face almost affectionately, despite my clear and utter cruelty towards him.
"It's fine, it's fine. The pain will go away~" I told him as I made some healing nectar from my mouth and almost gently massaged his wounded areas with it, watching as the wounds rapidly vanished, much to his terror, realizing just what I can do with this ability.
I honestly wonder, how much of my words does he understand? Surely, even with the language barrier between us, he would still understand the meaning from my tone and his predicament?
More questions for later when I get a more secure playing area for my next human prey that would most probably include mortal bandits, weak Rankers and warriors, or just plain idiots.
Hm, I better ask Mei Wu about any troublesome elders when she wakes up.
"Now though..." my hand, such a fragile yet strong thing, gently moved across his chest and abdomen, before settling in one area, as six thin vines that looked deceptively weak pierced his shoulders.
He felt pain, but not for long, as I started pumping small doses of both aphrosidiac and sedative nectars in his blood, along with a bit of healing nectars as well. It was truly, a terrifying blend that only an Alraune, along with very few beasts could make.
I felt the heat in his body increase, as qi threatened to force him free, his eyes filling with lust as it overrode his terror, and his desire to satisfy that particular urge appeared as his member stood up erect and ready for action.
Too bad for him that I wasn't interested in that kind of action, as the sedative poison made sure that while he is still full of lust. He will be lustful, eager, and highly aroused, but he will never muster the power to harm me, nor even bother to do so.
He would be just a blank and obedient pet, waiting for me to give him permission to satisfy my cravings, and the healing nectar would ensue that he would never run out of stamina if I wanted so.
"Sorry, honey~ but I don't have that kind of craving for you right now, instead..." my nails dug just a bit under his skin, drawing blood.
I felt the qi of his, potent and pulsing, enhanced even further with my nectars as they fully spread into his system, and I pulled some that energy to my body.
"Mmmmhhh~!" I felt myself moaning at the sheer sensation.
It was miniscule, all things considered, compared to mine, but even so, it was just so damn delicious! Taking the energy directly from a living being is much more different than just consuming corpses, and so sensually tasty on top of it!
"Oh, my~! To think that taking power this way would be this amazing... And I have to tell you this, big guy~ I thought that you were just a trash, but even a trash like you is still a warrior, therefore having quite the tasty energy!" I told him as he looked at me with that new blank, and apparently happy expression of his.
"It seems that despite you being a fodder in the great sceme of things, being so weak that I would have killed you without a thought had I not been an Alraune, you being ignored by your own teammate who clearly hates your guts, you still are useful for something in your miserable life! Good for you~! You are the least trashy trash I have ever met in this life! You're the fucking best!"
And I was being completely honest about it. Aww~ he even realized that I praised him and he looks even happier! Had he been more than a prey for me, I might have kept him as a pet, probably, but mostly to turn him into an energy battery.
Man, I feel like I'm treating this guy like a cultivation furnace or close to that, and I only feel amusement and joy from it.
But sadly, I don't have a lot of time on my hands, and I don't need him for the most part.
I stopped draining his Qi but didn't stop injecting my nectars in him, and I took a few minutes to calm myself, mostly.
Damn, that was one hell of a high! I will definitely repeat it again under more secure circumstances.
"So, what am I supposed to do with you now, I wonder... Ah, I knew!" I snapped my fingers as I called a couple of Worker Bees and asked them a simple question.
Does the Queen Bee eat monsters or humans? Oh, she does?
Very well then! My trash will be given for her for food and a little gift for sending some help. Sure, the Worker Bees are admittedly weak, but if the Queen Bee became stronger, then she might be able to give birth to stronger Worker Bees like Bronze-ranked ones.
But, should I go and visit the Queen Bee as well? I mulled over that decision.
While I kinda forgot about it for a while, this guy was still from a clan, and I had killed their young master as well, and technically kidnapped one of their girls.
... Yeah... this is basically an invitation to shove an investigation at my sorry butt, and sadly, I am not ready to fight a whole clan yet.
While I can probably defeat a Ranker of a Level 3 [Hero], and maybe Level 4 [Champion] if my skills can counter them or I was extremely careful, I would be crushed by anything stronger. Let alone the beasts they would have.
That would not end well for me, and while I can always reject a summoning contract due to my higher will and sapience, and could even break and ignore one if I was contracted against my will, it would still be awful.
Not to mention the fact that they would love to cut parts of me for pills or force me to make nectars for them.
Yep. I really don't like the possibility of that happening. I am now healed from the damage I had with Xie Li, I have two prisoners, and while I am sure that I have more than a few more days, maybe even weeks before the Xie clan notices the disappearances, better safe than sorry.
Taking a breath, I used one of my vines to hold the unconscious Mei Wu while I made a makeshift net to lift the items I stripped from them.
Sorry, lady. I know that dragging you into the territory of an another beast while you're vulnerable would probably be received badly by you, but I still need you alive, plus you're fun to talk with.
"Very well, lead the way." I told the Worker Bees that looked way more excited than I thought they would be.
Yes, yes, I know that your queen wanted to meet me, but can you at least not be as blatant about it?
