Chapter 376: Damian’s Worst Harem Upgrade Ever

Cassandra stared toward the palace for several seconds before finally nodding. "I see... no wonder you were so fucking calm."

Damian chuckled. "Hehehe. Exactly. Let those two test whatever bullshit is waiting inside first."

Cassandra then turned toward the two enormous water cocoons still absorbing the remaining sea, and Damian followed her gaze. "For now, let’s just wait until Serina and Miona finish awakening."

He rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "Besides... don’t you think this whole thing looks awfully similar to your Blood Festival?"

Cassandra studied the cocoons more carefully before slowly nodding. "Yeah. Actually, it’s extremely similar."

She placed a hand against her chest. "When I entered my Blood Festival, my body, Qi, bloodline, and practically everything else were reconstructed while I was inside the cocoon."

Damian grinned. "Exactly."

Cassandra looked toward the sisters again. "Which means... if their awakening works the same way, the moment they come out, they should be much stronger than before."

Damian’s grin widened. "Isn’t that fucking great? Two strong women joining the harem sounds like nothing but profit to me."

Cassandra turned toward him with an amused expression. "Hehe... assuming Miona doesn’t try to kill you first."

Damian waved dismissively. "Please. She likes me."

Cassandra laughed. "She threatens to beat the shit out of you every other conversation."

"That’s basically flirting," Damian replied with a confident grin.

Cassandra stared at him for a moment before sighing. "You’re fucking hopeless."

Damian laughed and looked back toward the cocoons. Even if Miona came out stronger and angrier than before, he wasn’t worried.

He already knew she wouldn’t truly attack him... probably.

Damian coughed lightly. "Well, even if she does, I’m still stronger, you know."

Cassandra grinned. "For now."

Damian’s smile immediately stiffened. "...Why did you have to add that last part?"

Cassandra only laughed as the final remnants of the ancient sea continued rushing toward the two cocoons.

---

A few hours later, the enormous sea had been completely drained by the two cocoons.

What had once been an endless stretch of water was now nothing more than a vast exposed seabed, with the gigantic [Twin Heaven-Abyss Sea Palace] standing in the distance.

Above the dried sea floated two enormous water cocoons, both glowing so brightly that the surrounding air seemed distorted.

The next moment, the pressure coming from them suddenly increased.

Cassandra’s expression immediately turned serious, and without hesitation, she stepped directly in front of Damian.

Damian blinked. "What are you doing?"

Cassandra didn’t turn around. "Protecting you."

Damian almost laughed. "From them?"

Cassandra’s voice remained completely serious. "Damian... from what I can sense, they’re stronger than me."

That immediately wiped the smile off his face.

He looked toward the cocoons again before shrugging. "Well, of course they are. Those two just absorbed an entire fucking sea."

He pointed at Cassandra. "You only absorbed the blood of your clan during your Blood Festival, and let’s be honest, most of those people weren’t exactly impressive."

Cassandra’s eye twitched. "Yeah, I fucking know. And that’s exactly why I’m telling you to stay alert."

Damian raised an eyebrow.

Cassandra continued, "Remember what happened to me after my Blood Festival? My personality changed too."

Damian suddenly froze. "Oh, right... I fucking forgot about that."

Cassandra sighed. "Exactly. I went from a cold sword cultivator to a bloodthirsty Blood Demon cultivator."

Damian looked back toward the cocoons with considerably more caution. "Shit."

But then he thought of something and quickly relaxed again. "Wait. You’re a blood cultivator, so of course you became more bloodthirsty. Those two are water cultivators, so how bad could their personalities possibly become?"

Cassandra gave him a small smile. "Let’s hope so... but what you said does make sense."

---

The two cocoons soon cracked apart, and both sisters emerged from within.

Serina looked completely different. Her hair had transformed into a pale aqua color, flowing behind her almost like living water.

Her eyes had become clear and luminous, while delicate pale-blue markings spread across her skin. Her entire presence felt elegant, calm, and strangely overwhelming.

Beside her, Miona was the complete opposite.

Both her hair and eyes had turned a deep blue, while her aura felt far more violent and oppressive, carrying the terrifying pressure of the deepest sea.

Damian stared at them and immediately recognized their new appearances.

This was exactly what he had seen in the Destiny Story, but seeing them in person made him grin inwardly.

"Damn... this is really nice. Just look at those eyes, that hair, those curves, those bodies... Yeah, as expected, the real thing is way fucking better."

Then Damian suddenly remembered something far more important: their status.

He hadn’t been able to see it properly before, but now that their awakening was complete, he should finally be able to.

Without hesitation, Damian opened the System, and the moment their updated information appeared before him, his eyes widened in shock.

WHAT THE FUCK?!

---

Cassandra immediately noticed Damian’s expression and frowned. "What’s wrong?"

Damian didn’t answer at first.

He simply stared at Serina and Miona’s descending figures, his usual shameless expression completely gone.

Then his face turned serious as he looked toward Cassandra. "Cassandra. Get into battle stance. Now."

Cassandra froze.

Damian’s voice became sharper. "Just do it. I’m serious. I’m not fucking around anymore... those two sisters have changed. Be ready, just in case."

Cassandra frowned deeply, but she immediately obeyed. Blood Demon Qi surged around her body as her hand moved toward her sword.

She had no idea why Damian was suddenly looking at the two sisters like potential enemies, but Damian had never become this serious without a reason.

Meanwhile, Damian continued staring at the System panel in front of him, his eyes narrowing even further.

"Goddammit, System. If you really had just shown me the next part of that fucking Destiny Story, the current situation wouldn’t be like this..."

Now Damian finally understood why the two sisters in the Destiny Story hadn’t cared much about Corlan or Lenox.

Because right now...

They weren’t really Miona and Serina anymore.
