Under the watchful eyes of Sora and the minister, Esdeath opened the lid of the container, revealing a pot of rippling crimson liquid—the blood of the super-dangerous beast with ice-controlling abilities!
Unlike ordinary blood, despite being preserved for thousands of years, it showed no signs of decay. As Esdeath opened the lid, white mist rose, and the three of them immediately felt the temperature in the room drop sharply, a chilling coldness invading the space.
A strange light flashed in Esdeath's ice-blue eyes. Filled with anticipation and excitement, she lifted the pot containing the blood.
"Seems like one cup should be enough…"
Like Sora, the minister still saw value in Sora and Esdeath, so despite Esdeath's earlier harsh attitude, he reminded her with a conflicted heart.
"Heh… it's all or nothing. Drinking it all might be more effective!"
Completely disregarding the minister's reminder, Esdeath confidently brought the pot to her lips and drank it in large gulps.
"Uh, General Sora, has your partner always been this crazy?"
His chubby face twitching, the minister looked at Sora, who wasn't stopping her and was even smiling carelessly, and spoke awkwardly, feeling like his rare acts of kindness were wasted on these two.
"Well, pretty much…"
With a nonchalant expression, Sora waved his hand and replied with a smile.
However, despite his words, Sora's gaze never left Esdeath. Although the original story said she succeeded, he couldn't be absolutely certain.
If something unexpected happened to Esdeath, he would have to intervene immediately.
Feeling extremely frustrated, the minister also turned his gaze to Esdeath.
Although this woman was skilled, ruthless, and a good ally, if she accidentally died, he wouldn't feel too sorry—after all, she wasn't his.
"Ah… it's quite tasty…"
Finally, after drinking all the blood, Esdeath put down the pot, licked her lips, and let out a comfortable moan.
But the next moment, suddenly—
"Ah!!!"
Feeling her heart suddenly throb, Esdeath's ice-blue pupils contracted sharply. She let out a scream, clutching her head with an expression of extreme pain.
In a flash, Sora appeared by Esdeath's side, holding her tightly in his arms. Although he knew this was a normal part of the fusion process, he couldn't help but feel nervous.
This woman was someone he had worked hard to find and train. Although she was cruel, insane, and sadistic, she was his true treasure. There probably wasn't another like her in the entire universe. If she were to die, Sora would be devastated!
Wave after wave of destructive energy burst from Esdeath's body. Feeling the intense desire for destruction, even Sora couldn't help but frown. Although he had confidence in Esdeath, his heart was in his throat.
Meanwhile, the minister continued to calmly eat his meat, completely indifferent to whether Esdeath lived or died. It didn't matter to him either way!
"Heh… hehehe…"
"What a strong destructive impulse! So this is how everyone is driven mad!"
After a while, Esdeath, who had been in pain in Sora's arms, suddenly regained her composure. A faint smile appeared on her lips as she let out a low chuckle, murmuring to herself.
"But—"
"Too easy! Did you really think this level of influence infect me?!"
"I have always been the one to make others submit. No matter who it is, they act according to my will!"
In the next moment, Esdeath's aura underwent a dramatic transformation. Waves of crimson killing intent erupted from her body, showcasing her queen-like, unparalleled dominance to the fullest!
Under Sora's gaze, a beautiful magical mark appeared on Esdeath's chest, adding a touch of allure to her already cold and domineering beauty.
"How do you feel, Esdeath?"
With a smile on his lips, Sora knew the girl had succeeded!
Feeling an unusual excitement and thrill in his heart, Sora realized that Esdeath had finally become the perfect Super S Queen!!!
"My dear, you were right. This is indeed a wonderful power!"
With a bewitching smile, Esdeath leaned in and kissed Sora.
Thus, completely ignoring the fat minister who only cared about meat and lacked any sense of normalcy, Sora and Esdeath passionately kissed, savoring each other's sweetness and sharing this joyous moment!
"Congratulations, both of you! Let us celebrate the birth of the strongest warrior, hahaha…"
Although the minister was somewhat surprised that Esdeath had managed to tame the blood of the super-dangerous beast, he didn't dwell on it. This was for the best. With Sora and Esdeath as powerful allies, the foreign tribes and revolutionary armies would be nothing but trash, and he wouldn't have to worry about his power and interests in the empire being threatened.
Of course, these two would also take a share of his benefits, but the minister wasn't the type to be short-sighted and greedy. After all, the empire was a big cake, and he couldn't enjoy it all by himself. It was only fair to share some with them for mutual benefit.
"Hehe, we'll celebrate at home. Minister, you can go enjoy your meat!"
Releasing Esdeath, Sora was in high spirits and teased the meat-loving minister.
"Well, we'll take these two Teigu back for the girls at home. You don't mind, do you, Minister?"
With his arm around Esdeath's waist, Sora walked over to the table where the Teigu were placed and picked up the Ring Teigu— Water Dragon Possession: Black Marlin and the Axe Teigu— Double-Bladed Axe: Belvaac, speaking as he did so.
Black Marlin was an Teigu that could control water, a power Sora found very useful and practical. He planned to modify it slightly for his women to use. As for the Axe Teigu Belvaac, Sora hadn't initially planned to take it, but he suddenly thought of an interesting plan and decided to keep it.
"Hahaha, of course, I don't mind. If General Sora likes them, take them all!"
The minister wasn't particularly attached to these items, and now that this fearsome pair had successfully fused with the super-strong Teigu and become even more powerful, he naturally had to give them some face.
"Thanks, Minister. You're such a good person, hahaha…"
Putting away the Teigu and giving the stunned minister a "good person" card, Sora left with Esdeath, laughing heartily.
Well, with a twitching mouth, the minister watched their departing figures and suddenly felt a pang of regret.
These two seemed even more evil than he was. Could cooperating with them be like inviting wolves into his house, eventually leading to his own downfall?
Shaking his fat head, the minister found his momentary thought amusing.
Hmph, no matter how powerful they were, as long as he had the young emperor in his hands and controlled the ultimate Teigu, who in this world would dare to defy him?!
Thinking this, the minister felt a sense of relief and satisfaction. Recalling how Sora had called him a good person, the minister found himself somewhat moved.
Ah, well, it was the first time in his life…
Taking a big bite of meat and humming a cheerful tune, the minister also walked out…
