Vampire King's Harem

Klaus doesn't have time to remember old memories or enjoy that moment with Irina as the bizarre skeletal footsteps sound closer and closer, echoing within the great hall.

"They're coming..." He commends as he hugs the fairy tighter.

"So let's fight our way out of here!" Irina's eyes glow with white sparkles while she is so excited to fight.

But Klaus still seems concerned about her condition. "You better take it easy; we still don't know what negative effect my blood may have on your body."

"Negative effect? Impossible!" She smiles at him. "I've never felt so good before; I feel this mysterious, incredible power within me, increasing my strength beyond what I could have imagined... and you're the one who gave me this power!"

Klaus can't help but looks pessimistic about that; almost everything in that world is new to him, but that's not the case with the sparkles in Irina's eyes.

Irina can see that Klaus isn't telling her something, but she doesn't think about trying to force him to say it and instead waits until he's willing to say that. "I'm fine, for real; as long as we stick together and support each other, we can do anything!"

"You're right, sweetie." Klaus caresses Irina's face, making her blush more. The approaching undead army doesn't leave her nervous, but the vampire's praise makes her heart beat faster.

After kissing once more, the couple runs towards the great hall arc; on the other side, enormous staircases can be seen, and the sound of skeletal footsteps comes from upward.

"Wait!" Irina stops before they can cross the arc and leave the great hall; she looks at Klaus' face, especially his lips, with a shy expression. "Isn't it better if we exchange some blood before the battle? I mean, since undead doesn't have blood, you can't drain their hearts; and I wouldn't mind getting stronger either."

He takes a good look at Irina and notices some very specific symptoms; her skin is wet with sweat, her face is growing flushed, her breathing is labored, and there is that excited sparkle in her eyes.

"We can't just keep exchanging blood indefinitely." He explains. "I can transform the blood of others into more power and blood for myself, but my blood only gives you power, so you still have to regenerate your blood naturally."

Before Irina can argue, Klaus continues. "Also, my blood doesn't become power right away, it takes some time for your body to absorb the full power of it, so I don't think more of it would do you any good right now."

She can't help but pout. "I feel this desire growing inside me along with the power... there's so much energy, and I need to push it out, otherwise, I'll go crazy... but there's also this insatiable desire!"

Her expression becomes more and more desperate until she becomes apprehensive. "Wait, don't tell me that's the damn bloodlust already???"

"It's not the bloodlust yet." Klaus tries to look serious as he answers, yet, he can't help but smile. "I think I know what that desire inside you is... and it can only be satisfied in a particular way."

A part of Irina knows what Klaus means; she can feel it, not with her mind or heart but rather with her most private part, which is burning with desire right now, a desire that only he can satisfy.

"That's fighting, isn't it?" How could Irina admit what she wants to do with Klaus right now, in the underground of the Bronze Skull Sect and about to face an undead army? Of course, she won't admit that.

"I feel like this is something physical; my body needs it so badly... a fight! I've never wanted a good fight so much in my life!" She tries to sound as honest as possible.

Klaus can only smile at Irina's obvious denial. "You can call it fighting if you like."

She is even more embarrassed and doesn't know how to act, but luckily for her, the skeletal footsteps are already too close, and they can't 'fight' right now.

"They are here!" Irina flaps her thin, delicate wings as fast as a hummingbird and flies off towards the great stairs; her eyes shine more and more with white sparkles, and her whole body also seems to glow with the same white light.

Klaus smiles as he runs after Irina.

She arrives at the stairs first and looks up with an impressed expression. He quickly arrives at her side and is also impressed by what they see.

Those large stairs connect to several other similar stairs that create different paths in what can only be described as a large gorge in the depths.

The place is so huge that even with his keen eyesight, Klaus can't see the ceiling, bottom, or any end of that place; there are only black rock walls, stairs, and cages everywhere.

Those steel cages are indeed everywhere, whether fixed to the rocks or suspended by chains, and inside each of them, there are one or more skeletons that are now becoming alive, trying to join the undead troops that come from everywhere in the darkness.

Hundreds of skeletons, all carrying old rusty weapons, marching toward Klaus and Irina. Those creatures have no feelings and only one purpose, to follow their masters' orders.

"So many enemies but not a drop of blood..." Klaus can't help but feel a little sad; what motivates him to hunt enemies down is mostly bloodlust, so bloodless enemies are, without a doubt, the least exciting ones.

"Skeletons are the necromancers' weakest undead servants, so let's destroy them all and hunt their masters down next." Irina comments as she tries not to look at Klaus to prevent her body from getting even more aroused.

Klaus nods to Irina, and the fairy again flaps her wings hard, flying towards the skeletons with an excited smile on her face.

*Whoosh*

She punches the first skeleton, which explodes into pieces, and her fist goes on, smashing other skeletons in the row.

*BAM* *BAM* *BAM* *BAM* *BAM*

Irina is surprised by her current strength; she still feels like she's in the late stages of the Martial Novice Realm, but that doesn't seem to mean much since her power is far greater than anyone with the same cultivation and even Martial Warrior people.

Skeletons surround her, launching slow but numerous attacks. Klaus almost runs to protect her, but Irina spins in the air, releasing powerful wind waves that destroy dozens of skeletons at once.

*Boom*

Bones, dust, and old weapons fly everywhere as Irina's body seems to glow even brighter. The fairy is really excited by so much power and flies around with extreme speed, creating more and more wind waves and destroying hundreds of skeletons.

"Hahaha..." She laughs while crushing her enemies. "You can't touch me, disgusting creatures!!"

Irina continues to destroy skeletons until her count reaches a thousand easily; just then, she notices that Klaus has not joined the fight but is instead watching her from the bottom of the stairs with an affectionate smile on his face.

"Aren't you going to help me with this??" She asks as she continues to flap her wings in the air and dodge the skeletons' attacks.

"You don't seem to need any help with that." He responds. "Actually, you look so beautiful and graceful fighting like that... I didn't want to get in your way but rather watch the show."

Even amidst a rain of attacks, Irina still blushes at Klaus's praises, but she doesn't plan to keep passive forever. Then she flaps her wings hard and flies at him quickly; she tries to grab him by the arm, but he acts faster and hugs her waist before kissing her lips.

"This is no time for flirting, stupid vampire!" She breaks the kiss before taking Klaus flying toward the undead horde.

Flying with Irina is a new sensation for Klaus. He can move as fast as shadows and jump so high that reaching the clouds wouldn't be a problem, but he's never flown before.

But the flight only lasts a few seconds because as soon as he is over the undead army, Klaus lets go of Irina's hand and fall over the skeletons. He runs over the creatures' heads, stomping their skulls.

Any skeleton Klaus touches explodes into dust due to his strength, and with unbelievable speed, he runs through the undead lines, destroying hundreds of them in a few seconds.

Now it's Irina's turn to stand and watch; no matter how powerful she feels thanks to Klaus's blood, he still seems to be on an entirely different level, and that is without having even half of her cultivation yet.

"Any help here, sweetheart?" Klaus asks as he continues to destroy the skeletons.

Irina really enjoys the loving ways that Klaus calls her, which makes her wonder if she should do the same to him. [Should I call you honey or something?? Nah! You haven't even made the damn proposal yet, stupid vampire!!]

Even without calling Klaus by some loving nickname, Irina joins him in the fight against the undead. But she tries to keep some distance from the vampire because whenever she gets closer to him, her desire for another kind of fight grows stronger.
