HPDBC Chapter 367 The New City of Elvara
Chapter 367 The New City of Elvara
The days passed with haste. Each day, a new meeting or gathering would take place regarding the new kingdom. It's agriculture, technology, the repairs, what would be allowed regarding military, paperwork and seals, questions and answers...
Asura dealt with everything alongside Maria. Alan decided she worked so hard, and her rank surpassed him by many levels.
However, despite spending two weeks constantly training in his spare time, Asura felt a sense of fulfilment.
In this life of meetings, planning and spending each day with all his beloved women in one place. He also couldn't deny his heartfelt filled and the idea of becoming a king one day. However, the work of diplomacy and the future of the realm would be immense.
He knew his women could help him in various ways, their knowledge and skills able to supplement his weaknesses.
It was at this time, after three weeks, that a message came from Silvara—it was a request to call back Lorem, Vela, and most of the Valkyrie that served under Vela, not Asura.
This matter wasn't a joke, nor a game for the future of the two nations. It seemed to be the queen's request for Asura to manage the newly repaired city of Elvara without using Vela or Lorem and many troops as his crutch.

The morning of Vela's departure, Asura stood beside her and held her tight. He didn't wish to be separated, but there must have been a reason for her mother to call them back. Asura trusted the queen to do what the kingdom needed.
"I do not wish to part with you, My lovely wife." Asura stroked her soft, silver hair, now cut to her shoulders, forming a lovely bob style with messy bangs.
Vela's amber eyes peered up into his as she wrapped her arms around his neck and placed her soft lips on his cheek. "I wish things could be different, but Mother seems to be determined to wipe out the excess monsters before we activate the barrier."
"Are you sure you don't want me to come back with you?"
Asura's hands rotated smoothly, enjoying the soft silk shirt she wore before sliding down to her soft, curvy rump. "Or maybe we can have a quickie." He kissed her lips, long and soft, leaning closer until her back was against a pillar in the great hall.
"Don't be so naughty... I don't remember you ending with just one! Haha... I am going to miss you so much, even if you've given me a wonderful gift that will keep me company for the entire time." Vela's voice became silky and tender, but a worried expression showed through.
He felt her hands run down his bare chest as she stood on her toes, kissing him with a gentle peck. Asura felt confused about what she said; what gift did he give? There wasn't anything he could remember.
"What are you talking about, love?" His finger ran through her silver hair as he cocked his head to the side, a confused expression plastered on his face.
"Did you forget... well, we were so busy last night... and you must have forgotten." She giggled, placing her hand on her tummy as Asura looked at her, more confused. "You're so dense...
hehe, well, you can wait and find out in the future then." Vela didn't seem to be the same as in the past; he realised just how much she left her small shell and became a lovely young woman in the time they spent together.
"I love you, Vela."
"I love you too."
Asura then stared at Vela with a soft smile, "When did you..."
"The first time, the night of our marriage."
"Hehe, I knew it; you're fertile..." Xavida whispered into Vela's ear, her dragon tail waving playfully as she pulled away and met Asura's eyes. "I am going lay my eggs so they hatch in time for these two... so they can all be siblings of a similar age, fufu."
Asura's heart became conflicted; he wanted to have children, and now, his three wives were carrying them. His smile turned brighter, and his heart felt warm as he looked at them with a burning flame. "We will meet again, and when I get back home, we will make up for lost time."
However, he worried... because he felt that the battle against the cultists was far from over.
With the flap of his wings, his body lifted off the boat and pulled away from his three beautiful lovers. He swore in his heart that their wedding would be held before they gave birth.
He refused to make his own children bastards.
"What a strange day..." He thought returning to the city of Elvara, the beautiful black stone walls, with runic symbols adding defence against magic and natural disasters like earthquakes that Asura asked the dwarves to install. He didn't want to spend more on this city than his hometown, but the stronger Elvara became, the sooner he could leave.
Standing on top of the tallest tower, Asura's crimson eyes gazed across the land, turning towards the ocean as his black wings spread out.
His aura flared through his body, becoming intense as his strength surged.
"I swear... I will finish this!"
While a black figure emerged from his shadow, Lucia hugged him from behind, her hands wrapped around his waist, "Sorry to interrupt... I just wanted to be close to you. I feel like we haven't had much time together..."
Asura knew why that was the case; he could only blame himself for getting involved with several women and not thinking about her feelings. He turned in her embrace and stroked her soft, silky black hair.
Since she transformed and gained the void attribute, Lucia became much more feminine and alluring, different from her past as Lucretia and those tacky dances... her soft, tanned skin and dark eyes were enchanting. "Forgive me. I will do my best to make sure your heart and soul are filled with nothing but happiness from now on."
Lucia smiled, kissing Asura's lips; he didn't feel it was a soft kiss, with affection. "Please do... I love you, Asura."
"I love you too."
"It was hard to become your lover and forget being your teacher... however, if you misbehave, I'll teach you a lesson, fufu," Lucia said, rubbing her cheek against his chest. "Hmm, you smell nice today..."
Asura knew it was his new perfume; they all bought some recently because Vela demanded it, and somehow, each of them would sniff him or cuddle him whenever he put it on... and every night, they would decide whose cologne he would use.
"Let us go back and finish work for today. Then relax together and read some interesting books."
Lucia nodded in response, following Asura down the tower. However, the moment her foot touched the floor, she swayed a little, turning into smoke, and now her shadowy form clung to Asura's back, her eyes closed with a huge smile on her misty lips.
For Lucia, the quiet moments and little things like this were important. She felt happy because Asura remembered she liked to read, which meant a lot to her.
