'Lust system': Rise of the Harem lord-Chapter 31: goddess of Pleasure and pain

Location: Velvora Night Ring – Inner Auction Hall

Chaos.

The kind that crackles in the air, thicker than smoke.

Chained Lust Hosts now stood with Elias. Their blank stares flickered with life, bonds reigniting through the shockwave of his Dominion Field.

Lilith spun in midair, her twin daggers flashing as she cut down a line of cult guards.

Aya’s rage exploded. She landed a heel-kick on a summoner’s face, then speared his system orb with her blade, shattering it.

Mira covered the escape route, shielding weakened Hosts with glowing shields of Lust-forged mana.

In the middle of it all—

Elias knelt beside Ivy.

She gripped his shirt, panting. "I can... fight."

"No," he said softly. "You’ve fought enough. Let me finish it."

Above, standing at the top of the crumbling staircase—

Ravon Zehr laughed.

But it was no longer human.

His robes burned away.

His body tore itself apart—and rebuilt from within.

Veins of obsidian lust-crystal exploded across his skin, forming armor that pulsed like a heartbeat.

His face twisted into a grin that no longer belonged to a man.

[Seraphina’s Blessing: Wrathform Activated]

"You think breaking a few chains matters?" Ravon hissed. "She made me from betrayal. From all the Hosts who failed her."

He spread his arms.

From behind him—black chains shot out like tendrils, latching onto two corrupted Hosts and yanking them forward.

Their bodies twitched as their energy drained.

He absorbed them.

"Let me show you what happens when loyalty is... recycled."

Elias vs. Ravon

Elias stood and stepped forward, a red glow rising behind his eyes.

His aura surged, igniting the floor beneath him.

> [Skill: Harem Dominion – Ascension Pulse]

[All bonded Hosts receive +30% Strength / +40% Mental Resistance]

Lilith’s power doubled.

Aya moved like a storm.

Elaria, watching from the control deck above, smiled. "That’s my Lord..."

Ravon lunged forward—his corrupted claws aiming for Elias’s throat.

But Elias caught the strike barehanded, absorbing the energy.

"You’re not special," Elias said calmly. "You’re just a pawn who thinks he’s a king."

He shoved Ravon back with a burst of energy so strong the ceiling cracked.

The battle was brutal.

Blood. Steel. Fire.

Ravon landed hits that nearly broke Elias’s ribs—but Elias kept standing.

Behind him, Ivy had risen, barely able to move—but her hand lifted toward Elias.

> [Bond Resync: Ivy Silin – 58%... 100%]

[Skill Unlocked: Dual Host Surge – Lustflare Halo]

A glowing crown of flame appeared above Elias.

His next punch shattered dimensions.

He roared as his fist struck Ravon’s chest—

CRACK.

The obsidian armor exploded.

Ravon screamed as the flames of all the women Elias had bonded with surged through him.

> [Ravon Zehr – System Core: Purged]

[Seraphina’s Echo: Expelled]

He dropped to the floor.

Dead.

--

The auction collapsed.

Freed Lust Hosts gathered around Elias, kneeling not out of obedience—but gratitude.

Elaria stepped beside him. "We now have over thirty bonded Hosts in the Dominion."

Lilith smirked. "Seraphina’s going to feel this one."

But Mira knelt beside Ivy, holding her hand.

Aya looked at Elias. "You know what she’ll do now, right?"

He nodded.

"She’ll send someone worse than Ravon."

Then—just as they prepared to teleport out—

A message burned into the sky:

> "YOU STOLE MY TOY, ELIAS. LET’S SEE HOW YOU HANDLE A GODDESS NEXT." – S

Location: Seraphina’s Forbidden Domain — Core of Crimson Desires

The chamber was carved from whispers, soaked in the blood of ancient Lust Hosts.

At its center, Seraphina stood over a crystal cocoon—shimmering like wet obsidian, pulsing like a lover’s breath.

She smiled.

"I warned him. Now I break him."

With a single kiss pressed to the crystal’s surface, the cocoon shattered.

Smoke curled outward, thick with corrupted pheromones and divine code.

And from within stepped Velhira.

Tall. Ethereal. Silver-white hair that floated weightlessly. Skin that shimmered with unnatural perfection. No aura. No scent. Just... hunger.

She didn’t speak.

She didn’t bow.

She simply opened her glowing eyes and whispered:

"Where is the one who denies surrender?"

Meanwhile, in the Dominion Tower...

Elias stood in front of a gathering crowd—freed Lust Hosts, now part of his Dominion.

Aya and Lilith stood at his sides, flanking him like queens of fire and shadow.

Mira worked tirelessly, building tracking nodes across the realms. Ivy, recovering, sat beside her, quietly watching Elias with both awe and guilt.

But then—every screen across the Tower blinked.

The Dominion seal was overridden.

And a video appeared.

Velhira, floating above a scorched land, dozens of Lust Hosts bound in silk chains behind her.

She smiled softly at the camera.

"To the so-called Harem Lord... I’m coming for your heart. And your throne.

> [Global Threat Detected]

[Entity Classification: Lust Deity-Class]

[Codename: Velhira – Goddess of Pleasure and Pain]

[Power Source: Seraphina’s Core Split]

[Estimated Threat Level: EXTINCTION]

Aya’s knuckles turned white. "She’s not a Host..."

Lilith narrowed her eyes. "She’s a weapon."

Mira looked at Elias. "We need time. If she gets to you now—"

"I won’t hide," Elias said.

But even he felt it—Velhira wasn’t like Ravon.

She wasn’t angry. She wasn’t emotional.

She was pure design.

That night, Elias dreamed.

Or thought he did.

He awoke in a black room filled with red roses.

Soft music. Warm breath on his neck.

He turned.

Velhira stood inches away, fingers on his jaw.

"Your bond is deep," she said softly. "But not unbreakable."

She pressed a finger to his chest—and he collapsed to his knees.

> [Warning: Soul Core Compromised – DreamLink Engaged]

"You fear becoming her," Velhira whispered, straddling his lap. "But that’s what makes you the perfect prize."

Elias reached deep, activating his Dominion even within the dream.

> [Skill: Unbreakable Mind – Active]

He growled. "Get out of my head."

Velhira smiled. "I like when they fight. It makes the surrender sweeter."

She kissed him once—and vanished.

Elias woke with a start.

Sweat. Shaky breath. A red rose lay on his pillow.

Aya barged in, eyes blazing. "We tracked her. Velhira just enslaved an entire pleasure province. She’s rewriting their Hosts—without touching them."

Elaria pulled up a map. "She’s heading straight for us. At this pace, she’ll reach the Dominion in three days."

Lilith cracked her neck. "Then we meet her first."

Elias looked at them all.

"We’ll move tomorrow."

"But not just to fight."

Aya raised a brow. "Then what?" fгeewebnovёl.com

"We’re going to steal one of her soul furnaces and turn her own code against her."
