How I Tame My Valkyrie Harem-Chapter 43: Saintess

A faint ray of light illuminated my room, bringing warmth to this peaceful morning. I was sleeping deeply after an active night that made me feel proud of my sexual prowess. My eyes were closed, but someone could hear someone talking close to my chest.

"Hey, Richard. Wake up." A kind voice was calling me out of my slumber.

"Hmm..." I let out a tired mutter, finally opening my eyes.

The first thing I saw when I woke up was a blond-haired girl nested on my chest, looking at me with a tender smile on her face. Her hair was shining in the morning light, and her green eyes were fixed on me. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"You finally woke up. Good morning, darling." She said, smiling broadly and giving me a good morning kiss.

"Good morning, Alicia." I said to her, caressing the loving girl by my side. "Have you been awake for too long?"

"N-No, I just woke up." She responded, but I couldn’t figure out why my answer made her nervous. ’Maybe it’s just my imagination.’

I looked at the other side, and there was Sarah, still sleeping with her saliva dripping from her mouth. I could watch her peaceful self forever, but I shook her awake.

"Let’s wake up, Sarah." I said to her with a gentle tone, and she slowly opened her eyes.

"Oh... Morning..." She barely said that to me, but she gave me a peck on the lips, and we got out of bed.

We wore our clothes, preparing for the new day. Sarah was wearing her black outfit over her upper body and her brown shorts, showing her thighs.

Alicia and I were using new clothes bought by Sarah. Alicia was using a blue shirt on top of white gloves covering her arms, and a white skirt from the waist down. As for me, Sarah gave me a black shirt, brown pants, and a forest green hood.

"So let’s check out Alicia’s condition."

"I hope I can be of good use." Alicia said to me.

Sarah noticed insecurity in her voice, so she put her hand on the princess’ shoulder. "Don’t worry, Alicia. Rick’s upgrade is the best."

I finally looked up the system after our night together. Actually, there were a lot of things that I needed to put in order in my Valkyrie Tamer System, but I decided to begin with the easiest, upgrading Alicia.

[

Name: Alicia Ludvila Von Astrea

Level: 4

Class: Priestess

Affection: 16

]

[ The candidate, Alicia Ludvila Von Astrea, has affinity to become a Valkyrie from the Saintess class. ]

"S-Saintess?!" I almost jumped in surprise, seeing that on the screen.

"What?!" The two girls said in unison.

This word was familiar to me. There were, in fact, people called Saints in this world, but usually they were Priests and Priestesses from the higher ranks of the Church. I never thought that a class with this name really existed.

"To be capable of making me reach such a power..." Alicia clasped her hands. "Richard, you are someone sent by the goddess! I should work hard to value this honor!"

Alicia clutched both of her fists in an ’I’ll work hard’ pose.

"Alicia, can I ask you something?" Sarah asked her out of the blue.

"Huh, sure."

"When you say goddess, which one are you referring to?" Sarah asked, curious.

"I’m referring to Lady Freya." She said in a calm voice.

"Eh? Freya, that Freya?" Sarah started in reply.

"Yeah, is something wrong?" Alicia tilted her head to the side in confusion.

For Sarah, it was a novelty, the link between Alicia and Freya, but I just didn’t expect that the fact Alicia prayed to the goddess of love would make her reach the class of Saintess. Alicia also didn’t know that Freya gave me her blessing, so you can imagine her reaction.

"You were really sent by the goddess!" She said, hugging me while sinking her head into my chest.

Touching the floating screen, I finally upgraded Alicia from a Priestess to a Saintess. A wall of wind coming from the system screen surrounded her until it merged into her body and soul. When I checked the system once again, Alicia was added as one of my Valkyries.

’Her health is a bit low, but she isn’t meant to be a fighter, but a supporter. I think it’s fine. As long as I can level her up, Alicia’s stats will grow.’ I thought inwardly. ’Let’s see what I postponed. Starting with my skills.’

Because of my act with Sarah back in the woods, I could take 2 skills from here. Adding up last night, I could take 4 skills from the Swordmaster class. After selecting "Flash Thrasher" and "Thunderblade" a text showed up in front of me.

[ Do you want to copy Sarah’s 2 skills? ]

I confirmed, and easy like that, I copied Sarah’s skills for me. ’And I still could become stronger by being able to copy two more powers from her. If she learns a new skill, I can add it to my arsenal, and I’ll still have the right to learn another one later.’

I laughed at how simply the system amplified my ability to use skills from whatever class. Basically, the Valkyrie Tamer System benefits me the more I satisfy my Valkyries sexually. I knew that, but seeing my harem growing in number and having a lustful night with them was another story. Experience really overcomes theory in this case.

"Oh, that’s right." I almost forgot my two rewards from that night.

[ Would you like to upgrade Lover’s Appraisal? ]

I confirmed, and after a lightning surge from the screen, my new skill was added to my system.

[

Tamer Appraisal: You can see the level and status of humans and non-humans, without restraints. If you use this skill on a female, you can see in detail how much Affection she has for you. This skill applies to Valkyries and non-Valkyries, humans and non-humans.

]

’It looks more like a normal appraisal skill now. It seems more useful for combat now that it works on basically any life form.’ I thought, with a smile at this final part. ’And on top of that, it opens the path for monster girls.’

Monsters are creatures from the dungeons, very hostile to humans, like the goblins from before. But some beast-type monsters can be "pets" of Tamers. Monster girls were a completely different story, being as hostile and impossible to tame. Until now. ’Of course, if they don’t kill me in the process.’

I looked into my next reward. After my screen shined again, I received a brand new power called "IndomitableDick." I gained another ero skill. ’After my experience with Ero Boost, I’m not so hyped to test it out. It’s not like I had to use my skills to get laid.’

I was going to at least look at what this skill was capable of, but my attention got caught by a dull sound close to my window. We had a visitor.

I usually let the window open to keep the room on the second floor ventilated while we stay there, closing it only when we go out to explore. However, I wasn’t expecting someone to enter our room through the window.

In a kneeling pose suited for a ninja, the white-haired girl was in front of us, taking Sarah and me by surprise.

"Diane." Alicia said in a happy tone, as her assassin appeared. She probably was accustomed to seeing Diane’s unusual entrances.

"What a surprise to see you here. Could you enter through the door?" I asked her.

"It’s better if fewer people here know of my presence." She said in a monotonic tone.

"You said that you would enter the city." Sarah said, looking at her in a confused tone.

"Yeah, I said that. But things changed last night, so I had to change plans, watching you closely." Diane said in a serious manner.

"When you say close, do you mean...?" Alicia said, her voice becoming more nervous with each word.

"Yes, my Highness. I stayed on the roof guarding you while you were doing your nightly activities." Diane said, her eyes closed, with no shame.

"You heard all of that!" Alicia and Sarah shouted in unison.

"Why are you so nervous? It’s not unusual for guards to keep an eye on nobles while breeding." She stated that fact, but it didn’t make the girls feel less ashamed.

I intervened. If Diane was there, something wrong had happened.

"Diane, what do you want to say?" I asked without beating around the bush.

"Last night, after you went to sleep, members of Silver Fang arrived in the town." She said bluntly.
