My Servant System

Chapter 577 Chapter 576: Mirror

I let out a low sigh as I tapped my pen against the notebook in front of me, my eyes tracing over the various runes I had scribbled down as I searched for a way to simplify and make this sequence more compact, quickening its cast speed and reducing some of the mana I needed by combining some of the runes together, but the problem with that was something similar to cooking.

There were portions that needed to be present inside the recipe, and they needed to be put in at a certain time; on top of that, you can only simplify things down so much before it begins to lose its potency, and again each collection of runes present in a single combined rune needs to work together in harmony for what it is meant to accomplish.

This was a difficult thing to do on my own, but thankfully this Palace was filled to the brim with people who were extremely helpful in guiding me towards the answer I was looking for, be it Leone, the Countess, or any of Leone's family.

I already had a few hints from Lady Lorelei, who had come to visit the Countess and see the babies, while Leone was sitting beside me, working on her own spells and deepening her understanding on just how far she could push certain theories.

The one that I had only seen her utilize so far was inlaying Ritual Circles into another Ritual Circle, which both the Countess and Lady Lorelei confirmed as something new for a multitude of reasons, meaning that the Vampire beside me was exploring her own path of magic simply because she thought outside the box - or circle.

We continued to exchange our notebooks back and forth, trying to get a fresh set of eyes on our works and relying on questions and clarifications to further our understanding of our own works as much as we could, while also hoping that the person beside us could find a solution to the problem that we might have run into.

Currently, my notebook was filled with various ideas for enchantments, ranging from some more simple offensive / defensive enchantments to more complicated enchantments like the shield idea for Jahi and Anput, or the wing idea that I eventually wanted to get tattooed onto my back.

Things that could be an immense help to us if I found out how to lower the strain these placed on the equipment and lowered the mana cost of each of them to make them more efficient, while maintaining a rather potent spell at the same time.

Perhaps not the best time to do this as it was starting to become night time, but neither of us wanted to fall asleep yet and we were both also giving the Demoness some time with Anput before we joined in, so why not be productive?

Of course, we could only concentrate so much before the scents and sounds got to us as well, with Leone succumbing first as she suggested we put this into a more 'practical' use and Dual Cultivate together for a bit...

After we enjoyed each others tongues for a few minutes, that is...

"Fuck... Is this anywhere near enough? I'm starting to get annoyed with this..."

I stared down at the curvaceous body of a Caninekin with a sneer, her pale skin covered in red marks and white liquid.

"Hmm..? Oh, you finished up a few rounds ago, and since you seemed rather... into it, I didn't bother stopping you. As for if it's enough, wouldn't it be best to ask that annoyance that we picked up?"

Raking a hand through my sweat plated hair, I narrowed my eyes as I stared at Ayla, my wife and accomplice in all of this.

"Would it kill you to be a tad more supportive, my dearest wife? You are the reason we are in this mess in the first place."

Her emerald eyes sharpened as she glared at me, only to growl softly as I met her gaze, no longer as wary of her as I used to be.

I had progressed just that much in my strength compared to her, and on top of that... well, I was the one to procure everything we needed for this new... 'home' of ours.

Pulling out of the barely breathing Caninekin below me, I stood up and approached Ayla, my eyes roaming the figure of the Kameiel Heir and woman who had done her hardest to captivate me.

My fingers caressed her cheek as I loomed over her, making the other Elf shiver as her emerald eyes softened, while her sun kissed skin darkened as I brought my member towards her lips.

Combing her green hair softly, I enjoyed the administration of Ayla for a few moments, only tearing my mind off of her as I heard someone else speak in this dark room.

"Jillian... We should be ready to move on to the next stage of the plan soon... All we need is for you to give us the go ahead."

Glancing over my shoulder, I traced my eyes over the pink skin of the 'annoyance' that Ayla was against us using, but...

"Sla'Prumstu..."

I chuckled as I stared at the Arch Fiend standing behind me, her large breasts and wide hips reminding me of who had continued to pervade my mind all this time, while the pink skin and horns reminded me of who I wanted to kill so badly for taking what was mine.

"Come here. Help me strengthen myself, dearest partner..."

She chuckled and nodded, her three purple eyes narrowing into slits as she got onto her hands and knees and crawled over to me, joining Ayla despite the Kemeiel despising this new addition of ours.

Looking down at the two of them, I couldn't help but grin as I mentally reviewed our plan for the future, already envisioning the looks of horror and anguish on that bitch's face as I ripped away everything that she held dear...
