Chapter 480 480-What Are The Girls Up To(3)
Mika and Rika's POV:
Rika's hands released the slumbering power within her, causing waves of water to rise from the ground. The water moved with a life of its own, flowing towards her opponent who was already bound by the waters grip. Soon he was flooded by the water, drowning, moments ticked by, and the results were declared.
"And the winner is Rika!" the announcement echoed through the arena.
Hearing this, Rika released her control, setting her opponent free as the healers rushed forward. Meanwhile, Mika remained unfazed, leaving the colosseum while the audience fell silent, impressed by her overwhelming victory. A sound indicated her change in position, rising above the opponents she had defeated.
As Rika walked through the long corridor of the challenging colosseum, her sister Mika appeared from the other side. Mika stood tall, her cold gaze characteristic of her, her beautiful black hair tied up while her wolf tail wagged with a hint of happiness from her recent triumph.
"Did everything go well?" Mika asked as she approached Rika, who nodded in response.
"Everything went well. With the powers we've acquired, few can stand against us," Rika replied.
Hearing her sister's response, Mika smiled, her demeanor relaxing as she spoke. "I still wonder how Austin knows about all this. Nevertheless, we seem to become more indebted to him."
Rika nodded in agreement, her white ponytail swaying as her dark wolf-like eyes narrowed. "It seems he still has many things hidden from us."
Mika remained silent, her silence speaks volumes. They didn't linger any longer and started walking away from the challenge center. The main members of Austin's group were currently carrying out his commands, causing chaos and increasing their ranks. With the gifts they received from the realm, courtesy of Austin's help, the main members had grown much more powerful.
"Where is he taking you for your next date?" Rika asked as they entered their private training room. Both sisters sat on the clean ground, their backs facing each other, their tops already removed as their bare skin made contact.
"He said he would be taking me to a new restaurant, a surprise," Rika replied. "But how was your last date?"
Mika's voice took on a dreamy tone as she responded, "It was wonderful..."
Soon the talk turned silent as the two of them focused on the mana inside and outside their bodies, their unique connection coming to play as their connection deepened. A unique bond formed between them, and the flow of mana between Mika and Rika intensified, resulting in a double filtration process that enhanced their powers.
A sense of peace settled between them as they gradually increased their strength. With their unique situation, their cultivation progressed at a faster pace than others. Soon, their fourth plate would be half full, pus.h.i.+ng them closer to Origin level 5.
"So, how do we make him more open to us?" Rika suddenly asked. Once the movements started, the rest flowed smoothly, giving them more breathing s.p.a.ce.
"Our seduction tricks are working, but we can't seem to get more time with him. He keeps running off every time," Mika replied, partly informative and partly annoyed.
"So why don't we find out the cause? The reason we have to keep our relations.h.i.+p a secret is Scarlet... that b.i.t.c.h!" Rika's words dripped with venom, and Mika nodded in agreement. They wanted to openly hold Austin, their lover, their lord, the one for whom they tirelessly worked. They wanted to go on open dates and declare their love to the world, but they couldn't, all because of Scarlet.
"We will get that b.i.t.c.h. We just have to bide our time..." Mika replied, her powers ruffled up. The thought of Scarlet being a Dragon didn't scare them. They had gone through a lot to find true love, and they wouldn't let anyone get in the way of that love. They were prepared to employ any necessary dirty tricks.
"How's the plan going?" Mika asked after regaining control of her emotions.
"It's still in the planning phase," Rika replied, her tone now calm. They had been working on a plan since they heard about Austin's predicament, an extremely crazy and difficult plan to implement. Even if the chance of success was only 0.01%, they would still try for their love.
"We should get stronger," Mika spoke with conviction, and both Mika and Rika simultaneously declared, "We are the swords of our master, the sharpest blades for his use, and the strongest s.h.i.+elds for him. For Austin, we would be his love."
As they finished speaking, the two of them refocused on their cultivation, their minds replaying loving moments with Austin. Their willpower grew from these memories, and they understood that Austin had his own problems. They would become strong enough to stand beside him and help him, building the perfect family around them—one filled with the two sisters, Austin, and their children.

Lora Ezraeil POV:
'Sigh... when can I meet him again? I miss his voice~' I sighed in my mind as I led the meeting. Surrounding me were the powerful n.o.blewomen of the Empire, gathered to discuss various topics, gossip, and issue commands.
'Sigh... I want to see him...' My thoughts once again wandered to Austin, and my body heated up at the mere thought of him. While all this played out in my mind, on the outside, I displayed the perfect image of the Empress—stone-cold and commanding. Not a single person could imagine that the Empress's thoughts were consumed by her love for Austin, the idea of him exploring her body, an embodiment of betrayal to her husband and in a way, the Empire.
It was then that a certain conversation caught my attention. "Hey, have you all heard any news about Sir Austin?" The words sparked a lively atmosphere.
"Isn't he the hot topic of the world right now? Everyone seems to want a piece of him," another countess replied.
"Yeah, he seems to be the perfect partner—smart, handsome, powerful, and incredibly influential," added another woman. Her words ignited a surge of emotions within me.
"I actually proposed a marriage alliance with him, but it seems that Grace rejected it. What a pity. He seemed like the perfect son-in-law... hehehe," a powerful viscountess spoke, her words causing me to tightly clench my seat before finally releasing my grip.
"You're right, he's really handsome," one woman said.
"Did you see him in that fight? He looked really... nice," another woman added, her last words slightly restrained as she remembered her marital status, fanning herself a bit. Just as the conversation was about to become even more interesting, a cold feeling spread, causing all the women to flinch. Their eyes turned to me, seething with anger inside.
"Let's end the meeting here," I said lightly before standing up, leaving the meeting with a heavy heart but also a certain idea blossoming within me.
'A son-in-law... hmmm...' I wasn't foolish, I knew that my relations.h.i.+p with Austin couldn't be brought into the realm of the world. As much as I desired it, it simply wasn't possible. However, now a different idea sprouted in my mind—one that I detested, yet found intriguing. I despised the thought of Austin being close to another woman; it ignited a deep sense of hatred within me. But I also understood that Austin would eventually have to take a wife, and what better way than for me to have control over that wife?
A powerful alliance, one with Olivia, could significantly boost the power of the Empire, and it would ensure that Austin remained close to me. The mere thought made my bottom lips twitch in desire. As much as I abhorred the idea of even my daughter touching what I loved so dearly, I could still control my feelings if it meant getting closer to the one man my heart truly beat for.
Perhaps by doing this, we could become even closer... Various scenarios played out in my mind, each one involving Austin showering me with his loving care. My body heated up in ways I had never experienced before. Soon, I entered my room, securing all my protections, and retrieved a certain orb. The recorded voice within it began to play.
"I love you, Lora."
Those words alone brought me to a small release, and my hands soon moved toward my bottom as the idea solidified in my mind.
'I need to act on this soon...'
