It was at that moment that everything around Khan froze. Lily stared at them with a blank expression, yet within her eyes, a gleam of incomparable rage seethed.

The orangey hue from the light that came from the sunset illuminated the world-shattering scene that transpired inside the Magic Programming Room.

Lily's expression gradually darkened, she moved, with heavy footsteps and one step at a time, yet her movements were akin to that of a death reaper for Khan, whose expression became dotted with beaded sweats.

Meanwhile, the jet-black haired young woman's expression contorted to that of shock and panic, despite that, a tinge of crimson remained on her cheeks which crawled down her neck, making her look like a tomato.

When Lily closed the door, her gaze landed on Khan and he felt that the room somewhat became a thousand years old icy cavern. Regardless of all the experiences that he had with all kinds of schemes and life and death situations, it was the first for him to experience the full-on rage of a woman.

Because of the shock and the apprehension that overtook his body, Khan's finger was still stuck inside the jet-black haired woman and Lily's eyes darted towards that finger.

"Feels quite warm, right?" She revealed a sweet smile, but to Khan, it was akin to a smile of a hundred thousand years old predatory beast.

"Ermm..." He swiftly took his finger, but his rough actions caused the woman that leaned on him to moan in pain.

Lily lifted her eyebrow, taking a deep breath, she calmed herself down, yet her tone still felt distant and icy as she spoke, "Why didn't I see her, here, earlier? Could it be that you thought that you can have her give you a quickie, in the time gap where I wasn't present?" She spoke in a tone that clearly enunciated her words, and each word sent a shiver down Khan's spine.

Meanwhile, the woman that leaned on Khan arranged her ruffled clothes, but her countenance fiercely blushed upon hearing her sentence, her head hung in shame for she didn't have any retort.

Khan glanced at his drenched finger and his gaze, darted around, seemingly looking for something,

"Looking for this?" Mysteriously, a tissue appeared on Lily's hand, of which, she gestured towards Khan's direction.

"Oh, thanks..." Khan awkwardly smiled, took the tissue and wiped his index finger with it before rolling it and throwing it towards a distant trash can.

His eyes then focused entirely on Lily, trying his earnest to deduce his little wife's current thoughts. But to his dismay, he only found a deep-seated indifference and coldness within her expression.

Khan sighed, for the event that transpired was his mistake, he could've just waited for Lily's arrival and discuss the problem with her, but he was too hasty...

At this point in time, Khan sent a glare towards the jet-black haired woman, threatening her that the two of them must earnestly, and honestly explain the situation.

Amidst the pressure that Lily exuded, the jet-black haired woman stood up for the two of them and gently talked her way out of the current incidence.

'A small-scale Rune device inside their womb?' Lily's expression darkened, she moved towards the unconscious woman that laid on the table and probed her body with her Qi.

Her expression became solemn as she felt a foreign object reacting to her probing, fortunately, Khan had already dissipated its effects and was harmless. However, just having it inside a girl's body could make anyone, imagine that pain that it gave.

Lily spread her legs and ran her index finger around the woman's labia before using her smartphone as a light.

"T-this is..." She became horrified, for the liquid that drenched her finger looked gelatinous and had a rancid smell on it which almost made her retch.

Khan's expression became solemn, while the woman beside him visibly shivered, the feeling of having that spiteful bug inserted within the deep recesses of your body couldn't simply be described with words.

"It's a Yin Accumulating Parasite with a Rune that affected the host's mental state attached to it," Khan explained.

"YIn Accumulating Parasite..." Lily's countenance became pale, for she had heard about this Parasite back at the Continent of Pride.

Amidst the myriad occupations around the planet, there existed an occupation that focused solely on using the bodies of females as a furnace, in other words, using them as a dual-cultivation furnace.

But instead of sharing the benefits with their partner. They would hog everything for themselves, causing their partner to die by loss of vital essences.

And one of the most favorite tools of those who walked on that path of cultivation was this Yin Accumulating Parasite. For it doesn't immediately affect the host, however, once attached, it would constantly gather the vital yin of the females within its body and when it reached a certain point where it was unable to gather anymore Yin Energy.

It would burst, sending the host to its death.

And there was one more horrifying fact about this Parasite.

The fact that it could never be removed until it exploded.

The woman that stood beside Khan couldn't suppress her emotions anymore as she burst into tears, evidently, she knew about the truth of the Parasite that was attached inside their body.

Khan stared at her and found that he really misunderstood them. At first, he thought that they had sacrificed a part of their humanity to obtain the power that they sought. But now, seeing her bursting into tears and covering her face in shame.

Khan knew that they didn't consent with this.

Although he wasn't a Saint, and the number of people that he had killed with his very own hands had surpassed the imaginations of common people, that doesn't mean that he would neglect such wrongdoing.

Even if he wouldn't acquire any merits when doing so, he would still gladly do the job of cleansing the world of impurities.

All for the sake of repenting for the sins that he accumulated at that time. Especially towards her, who desperately pleaded him to stay away on his path of Slaughter.

Yet in the end, he continued on, and eventually tried to forget her visage.

Khan tightly clenched his fists.

He wasn't someone that anyone could call as a genius, nor he was someone that anyone could call as a virtuoso. He was also a human. A human that tread on the arduous path of fighting against the heavens.

He had these feelings that no matter how much he tried in getting rid off, would never disappear from the deep recesses of his heart.

Lily's eyes landed on Khan and found that his expression contorted into a melancholic pain, causing her to think that he thought about something that happened, long ago in his life.

She revealed a slight smile, although she hated the fact that Khan touched a woman that was not her. She wasn't that petty to the point that she would discard the earnest explanation that the two of them made so that she could understand the current situation.

And so, she moved, her eyes shone in a forgiving light and arrived before Khan's side and tightly clutched his hand.

Khan's mind stirred away from his melancholy. He stared at the woman beside him and found that she was smiling, so sweetly towards his direction.

His mind went blank for a moment. For the silhouette of the young woman at that time, seemed to perfectly line up with Lily's smile.

He held back his inner turmoil and retorted by tightly grasping her hand, which increased the intensity of his little wife's smile.

The woman beside Khan noticed their interaction and couldn't help but feel somewhat disappointed, yet a mellow feeling of happiness surfaced within her heart, which made her somewhat confused.

She touched her cheeks with both of her hands and pondered, 'Could it be that...my heart of a maiden that was sealed, long ago is starting to thaw...?'

The atmosphere lingered on, quite a while before Khan, with Lily's consent, decided in his heart that he would do his best on helping the two.

But before they could discuss everything. A school-wide announcement interrupted their talks.

[This is an announcement to all students of the University of Modern Magic]

[The current time is already 5:30 PM.]

[It is now time to return to your residences]

[Thank you.]

Khan revealed a small smile, while Lily at the side, struck him at the waist and poutingly said, "I still didn't forget about what you did with her..."

"Ermm..." Khan's smile became awkward and he didn't dare to meet Lily's gaze as his head turned around, looking quite cute from Lily's point of view.

But this actions of his, caused Lily to become complacent as a smug smile suffused on her face.

"I won't do anything to you, but as punishment..." Her expression turned rosy for a moment before mustering all of her courage and whispered in his ear.

Khan revealed a teasing expression, "I see, I see, it seems like you really can't forget about the taste of it, to the point that you wanted me to do it, every day..."

"Well, it's fine since it also benefits me anyways..." Khan shrugged, while Lily's grasp on his hand tightened and shown on her face was a threatening vibe that he found hard to endure.

He reached for his pocket and took a yellowish paper, of which, he infused with his Qi, followed by the manifestation of a black hole that floated silently in the air.

The woman beside Khan stared at the hole in horror, for the feeling that she felt from it was extremely menacing.

However, upon seeing the smiles of the two beside her, she calmed herself and carried her fellow sister towards the black hole as she followed the duo's gesture.

They soon arrived inside a mansion that looked incomparably luxurious. In just one look, she deduced that just the walls that made up the mansion were made of reinforced bricks which could withstand a Gold Class Magician's full-on attack.

Khan stretched his body and lazily plopped down on the couch. Everything that happened today took quite a toll towards his mental strength, especially the times where he thought that he would be killed by his very own wife.

"What are you doing, sleeping there?" Lily's vexed tone focused on him, prompting him to lazily raise his head up and stare towards her direction.

"Mhmm? What is it?"

"Did you forget about the punishment? If I don't see a trace of you doing it by the time that we finish our bath, you'll not sleep with me for a month!" Lily threatened, and the eyes of the lifeless Khan whose figure plopped on the bed, rouse, and with a newfound energy that god knows where it came from. He stood up and raised his right hand in a salute.

"Yes, ma'am!" He speedily disappeared from their sight, sending the jet-black haired woman into a mirthful laughter.

The light that came from Lily's eyes became gentle as it landed on her figure. As a fellow woman, she had an inkling about the hardships that she had experienced and felt utmost sympathy towards her current situation.

She reached for her hand, and the latter startled,

"Ma'am..." She spoke in an uncertain tone since she didn't know about how she should call her and she still felt shameful towards the actions that she just did with the former's boyfriend.

"Hahaha," Lily chuckled, revealing a sweet smile, she continued, "You don't need to be that stiff, you can just call me Lily."

"Lily..."

"Yes, It's Lily. Now that I think about it, I still haven't heard your name..."

"Oh well, let's just talk about it in the bath."

Lily walked towards a nearby couch and carried the unconscious reddish-haired woman.

The jet-black haired young woman stared at Lily in an incredulous light as she had a foreboding feeling in her mind. But before she could further think, she was grabbed by Lily who joyfully laughed as the three of them, entered the bathroom.

Meanwhile, inside the kitchen. Khan's figure who already changed into that of his normal house attire that consisted of a t-shirt and shorts, stood, with an apron, covering his front.

On the table before him, was a wide array of ingredients, his expression turned solemn as he took a knife from a shelf, as he started his work.

Soon, the faint alluring fragrance of various dishes floated in the air, it stretched out until the bathroom and struck the figures of the three that bathed inside.

The figure of the reddish-haired young woman laid on the bathtub that was full of water. Because she was still unconscious, Lily decided to do all the work and scrubbed her body clean.

The jet-black haired young woman stared at the figure of her sister comrade that faintly shone in a healthy blush as tears threatened to spill out from her eyes.

She sat on a stool, suffused on her face, were several complicated emotions of relief, security, and happiness, yet a huge part of it was apprehension.

"Okay, now you're clean..." Lily smiled, her nose twitched as she recognized the smell of various herbs and appetite inducing meals.

The jet-black haired young woman also noticed it and her expression blushed for a loud grumble echoed within her stomach, causing Lily to chuckle in delight.

"It looks like my husband's cooking attracted your appetite..." She proudly said while the jet-black haired young woman gave a look of confusion, "Husband...?"

"The two of you are married?" She scrutinized, but this question of hers made the atmosphere inside the bathroom, quite awkward as Lily didn't deny her relationship to Khan, yet she also didn't confirm it.

"Sorry..." She felt somewhat shameful towards her scrutinization, thinking that it may have made Lily uncomfortable for they had just met each other.

"Nah, It's fine... By the way, sister... What's your name?"

"My name...?" Her expression turned blank for a moment before regaining its clarity, "I'm number Zero Two..."

"Zero Two...?" Lily repeated in an uncertain tone.

"Us experimental subjects didn't have the right to have our own name, instead, we were given number codes to differentiate between each other."

"She's One-Five and I'm Zero Two..." Her gaze landed on her comrade momentarily before sadly hanging her head down.

Lily stared at her, several emotions started to burst within her heart and as a woman, she was sensitive and emotional, especially to nerve-wracking situations such as this.

Her two hands moved, tears streamed down her cheeks and she embraced the jet-black haired young woman as she said, "Don't worry, from now on, this will be your home, and no matter what, I won't let the two of you, return back to that horrible place..."

Her incomparably gentle tone broke all the defenses that the latter placed around herself as she also started to cry, spilling at least ten years worth of tears on Lily's embrace.
