《Adamantine Dragon in the Crystal World》Arc 1: 3 - Curse known as blessing
Advertisement
AN: Marcdrak Euharm Maxkael Adajax Emerald Vegyla.
Marcdrak derived from Marc (Mars gr. God of War) and Drak which stands for Dragon!
Also HERE IS AN R18 WARNING! Yes, this story will contain a bit of mature content. Consider yourself warned.
Looking at two kneeling before him Marc's expression softened. Feeling that both girls stood up. In fact outside battle he would rarely bring his aura out, but right now it was time for serious conversation.
[Marc: Why are you here? I've handed all of my links out... And I don't feel your links either... I know who you are... but... who are you?]
[Calla: ...]
In Flow World those seven were the ones who were with Marc the longest. Out of all of them inside his black castle those seven were known as Valkyries. Without doubt strongest and most faithful to him...
Raven-haired goddess never was good with explanations, she was as straightforward as the swords she wielded. You said attack, she rushed out in perfect straight line. And mowed down the enemy without fail. Indisputably strongest even among the seven. She had incredible speed, strength, power, magic, battle sense, you name it - she had it all. Second only to Marc, and even against him she was capable of fighting him to stalemate for several hours - and just that showed how much of a monster she was.
However that was all she was good for. Cutting. Crushing. Burning.
In every single other aspect one wouldn't believe how clumsy she was. The more she cleaned the messier room was. If you let her cook, then you lost a kitchen.. together with two adjacent rooms. The list could go on and on.
[Lily: We are... um... back up plan?]
[Marc: ...]
[Lily: Eto... Ragna-nee help!]
[Calla: Wha? I-I-I... Uuuuu...]
[Marc: ... *Violet color creeps up on his eyes.*]
[Lily: Wah! W-we were made from your memories using parts of your soul.]
[Marc: I figured... But... How.]
[Lily: Haha, you know that none of us can use Soul manipulation magic, in this case Fate-chan was very helpful. Do you remember the seal she carved out on your soul?]
Marc narrowed his eyes...
***
A golden haired girl was slowly sipping the tea that her puppet prepared for her. Transcendent beauty. Her skin so white that it nearly looked transparent, wearing a white dress full of frills she could easily pass as a doll, especially as she passed the time idling without a serious purpose.
[Lily: Fate-chan.]
[Fate: Lilith, did you come for some tea?]
[Lily: Fufufu, of course. *sat down*]
[Fate: I don't know what are you scheming again but I hope you'll leave this powerless fate outside of your games...]
[Lily: Not completely powerless...]
At that moment six other girls appeared. Feeling their presence golden haired princess knew that it was something big. She abruptly lowered her cup waiting for the development, though in fact she could nearly predict their request... After all...
[Kaya: That's right, you are completely powerless unless it's about Marc. In fact when it comes to his soul, you can actually do as you like...]
Fate narrowed her eyes and visible frown appeared on her doll-like face.
[Lily: Haha, don't worry. We won't ask you him to harm him, we just need a little favor...]
***
[R18 Warning]
After a struggle Marc's vision was completely surrounded by yellow strands of hair. As he was basking in the afterglow a giggle had escaped mouth of the Golden princess as she climbed a top of him. A previous ruler of Fate and Destiny was now reduced to a simple powerless girl, and what's most important she didn't mind. As her naked body pressed against him he felt a drop of blood. A small self inflicted injury appeared on her pure white skin.

[Marc: Hm? What's this?]
[Fate: A gift.]
A beautiful smile bloomed on her face as golden eyes locked onto his. He felt stirring in his soul, but he didn't interfere. Right now if she wanted his life he would give it to her, that's how much he trusted her. After all she too entrusted hers in his hand. A strange inscription was etched onto his soul.
[Marc: What's that for?]
[Fate: Ehehe~ A ward from loneliness. Whenever you'll feel lonely you can look at it and remember me~]
Green eyes carefully inspected the inscription, it was totally unresponsive, he couldn't feel any power emanating from it. Well, he had no reason not to believe her, but her words made him a little irritated, especially that little note of loneliness in her voice. With a quick maneuver he pushed her down.
[Fate: Ah~]
[Marc: Do you think I'll ever let you go? Whenever will I want to remember you, I can just take you.]
[Fate: No~ Beast~]
Poor Fate, that night exhausted her so much that afterward she needed three days of rest.
***
(Marc: A ward from loneliness huh...)
[Lily: The idea was that whenever you found yourself without links it would recreate us from your memories. It was in case the world ended or something similar... though there should be more of us... much more...]
[Marc: There won't be. It only works on those who were deeply implanted inside my soul.]
[Lily: Fate lied then...]
[Marc: No, even for Fate this is the limit, she couldn't have known.]
[Lily: Still, to think that it would be used like this...]
[Marc: The other me, he doesn't even remember about this inscription anymore...]
Silence...
[Lily: But this world is great!]
[Marc: That's so?]
[Lily: Yes! I can't feel my curse at all! It totally disappeared. How great! Now we can live as we please. Even Marc, that curse you hated the most also disappeared right? Right?]
[Marc & Calla: ...]
[Lily: ...]
[Marc & Calla: ...]
[Lily: No way...]
[Calla: Blessings remained. I can still feel the imprint of my 'Omen of Destruction'.]
[Lily: That's right, my 'Omen of Deceit' is still here...]
[Calla: 'That' is still there, 'it' showed itself this evening.]
[Lily: ...]
Silence fell upon them. Lily quickly understood the situation as she recalled the wolf girl.
[Lily: I'm sorry Marc, before I didn't...]
[Marc: Shh. I know.]
[Lily: But couldn't you reject her?]
[Marc: My control is not high enough now. I couldn't refuse it...]
For all of them it was a hard object to touch. Among all of his abilities he hated this one the most, he even preferred his curse better. Even the 'Destroyer of the World' wasn't as troublesome as this ability... It's name was 'Links'.
That's what affected Marc several hours ago. Whenever a Link was formed he would receive that feeling of a pierce in his soul. There was a special requirement for a Link to appear. And that was offering, in other words the other party had to offer themselves to Marc.
Body - Give their physical form to him. In other words a will to protect him.
Mind - Give their mental power to him. In other words fall in love with him.
Soul - Give their soul to him. In other words have enough will power to sacrifice themselves for him.
And as in exchange they would obviously receive something, and that what happened to Mersa.
And it wasn't something so simple as 'Power', It was something much more incredible. It was 'potential'. Wolf princess in that moment subconsciously offered all three parts of herself to him, and that what made an incredible jump in sub-race from Med to UHigh.

And here is where the tricky part starts, because when 'he' received them. He had them. He possessed them. All of them. And what will be a consequence as he dies? All Links will receive enormous damage, and if he received all three parts death was almost certain. And If he crossed the last part - the soul bind - it was 100% certain.
Of course Marc never died, but just the feeling that he bore all of their lives with his was extremely... contradictory. On one hand he would feel extremely happy, the link was a ultimate form of trust they gave him, they offered all of them to him without question. On the other hand it was a play with their lives. From the moment links were formed their lives were in his hands, he could absolutely do anything to them. Both of those emotion combined would made him feel disgusted.
He swore that he will never abuse this power. He swore it to Calla - the first one ever. Marc's eyes met hers. Her pitch black irises held no doubt as she answered him with unwavering gaze.
[Marc: Krishna Ragnarok.]
[Calla: Yes m'lord.]
That's right. She was Ragnarok. Her curse was 'The Cause of World's Destruction'. Self explanatory, she would cause the World Destruction, similarly to Marc she was hunted and hunted and hunted. That was also one of the factors that caused them to meet each other.
[Marc: Krishna 'Calla' Ragnarok. YOU'RE MINE.]
[Calla: Yours. Yours forever and always.]
A red shade appeared on her white cheeks as she knelt and swore her fealty to him. Again an ever familiar feeling pierced through his soul. Jade eyes then turned to the other girl. Redhead chuckled as her azure eyes met her 'destined'.
[Marc: Lilith Loki.]
[Lily: Lord Marcdrak.]
She gave him a curtsy. Lily's main focus was speed, among the seven she was only slower than black haired girl. Consistently scoring a 3rd ranking in power among the 7 goddesses, she is extremely skilled in using illusions, feints, stealth and strategies to overwhelm her opponent. In charge of the intelligence, espionage and assault plans. She also receives and distributes tasks to others. A Mastermind, consistently teasing and pulling pranks on others, especially Marc. Her curse was 'Lord of Betrayal' which meant that she would never be able to live normally, it was causing an compulsive disorder that forced her to back stab her allies...
[Marc: Edict. In the name of Demon Emperor with all the rights that he is entitled to, we, Marcdrak Euharm Maxkael Adajax Emerald Vegyla, claim Lilith 'Lily' Loki for ourselves.]
[Lily: I hear and obey.]
[AN: To confirm your thoughts: Yeah, Marc conquered the Demon Realm just for Lily. oi, it was necessary o/ ]
With a smile brighter than sun she gave all of herself to Marc which was confirmed by another triple sting in his soul. With that he looked at the other girls who were peacefully sleeping despite all of the commotion that was happening right next to them. The truth was that they would only wake up when Marc's soul capacity would be capable of holding them. Seeing their faces Marc's resolve was renewed. First thing first, as his first priority he had to wake up all of them. The second? Who cares.
Next to him Lily shook her head in resignation. She knew that Marc was a type to hit first then think, left by himself he would use an excellent strategy named: I'll deal with it when it comes up. A true plan.
[Lily: Marc, I was thinking that I have a lot of time, how about letting me take care of the future plans?]
Hearing her Calla vigorously nodded, she was a first one that soulbound with Marc and together with him they were called Charge-Duo due to similarity of actions. For Calla it was because of her straightforward nature, the straight charge was the True way! For Marc it was because of his lazy nature, why think of other plans if a simple straight charge would yield the same result?
Both of them relied on their brute nature to force their way through, the only difference was that Marc in the difficult situations would immediately resort to faints and other means to accomplish his goal while Calla would single mindlessly push forward or when situation proved too difficult she would retreat. Ragnarok found out that everything became easy as long as she followed the plans made by Loki, while Marc fine anyway...
[Marc: Fine. I'll leave it to you then.]
He didn't mind, as long as they were happy he would let them do whatever they wanted, and he would go with the flow.
[Lily: Thank you, for now let me learn the language then gather the information, after I get everything sorted out I'll immediately present next steps. Marc, can you do something for me? It would be helpful if you could act a bit low key okay? Please?]
She threw a cute smile at him, huhu she knew that facing that wording and her smile he would even agree to slay God immediately.
[Marc: Very well.]
Success!

[Place: Principal's Room]
[Principal: There was a change in the situation.]
[???: Don't tell me she plans to withdraw from the army... We cannot aff...]
[Principal: No, that's not it.]
[???: If that's not the case then there was no need for you to contact me. I'm quite busy you know?]
[Principal: No, I'm certain that this is worth your attention.]
[???: Hm? I'm listening then.]
[Principal: The 'powerless' woke up. His crystal core reformed.]
[???: W.. wh... What?]
[Principal: I've no idea, yesterday I was there as his core liquidized, I sent you pictures.]
[???: Yes, I know.]
[Principal: Today he opened his eyes, we scanned him and found a solid crystal core.]
[???: That's impossible.]
[Principal: It happened.]
Silence. Even though Kollos Alliance was promoting the freedom for its citizens and was in no way a radical organization, a temptation of reforming the crystal core made a person on the other side of the line silent for a while... If they could hide it from that girl... But that person quickly shook her head, no that wasn't right, no experiment on a child could be considered as a 'right' way.
[???: This must remain confidential.]
[Principal: Roger.]
[???: Then I must...]
[Principal: There is one more thing.]
[???: ... It better be important then.]
[Principal: It's about Wolf Princess.]
[???: What more? Did she finally broke free from him? So far that 'powerless' held her back so much, and as things stand he will continue to do so.]
[Principal: I'm not so sure.]
(???: ... What's wrong? We both know that because of him she doesn't even seriously train.)
[Principal: Today after she saw him coming back to life she experienced sub-trans. (sub-transformation)]
[???: Sub-trans?! Did she achieve Red Wolf?] (Red Wolf = Bottom High)
[Principal: No...]
(???: *sigh* well UMid will still be a big advantage, she is hybrid after all)
[Principal: She's White Wolf.]
[???: No way...]
[Principal: Tomorrow I'll have an official test but I have no doubt, her fur is purest among all the White Wolves so far...]
[???: ...]
[Principal: That'll be all.]
[???: ... *click*]
A smirk appeared on the face of the man. It was first time he heard that woman being agitated. Even twice! This was totally worth it.
[AN: Forgot to ask. How do you guys feel with R18 content? Should I just be done with small insinuation or should it be more descriptive? Well, I'm not so sure about writing a 'better' ones, actually this is my first time writing a novel too so I thought w/e lets just go with the flow. Just tell me your preferences.]

The setting is similar - because, well, its a SCI-FI Mech novel. What am I to do about that? Some people judge at chapter one, five or ten. I would like those who decide to drop this novel and drop a 1 or 2 to read chapters 27 or 28 or 29. On a positive note; I really don't need to defend my work or myself. I'm very satisfied with the progress lately. Im happy with the continued support. Im happy to have become a Webnovel Contracted Author. I'm happy to have +/- 350 collections on WN. Im happy to be at +/- 80 followers here, with so many of you even favouriting.Thank you all for the support and for being awesome!

My Roleplay Server
Given the chance to reincarnate in a world with two wishes, who would say no? Especially when you could live a life you've always wanted. This is supposed to be a relaxed story about a man fulfilling the dreams he couldn't in his first life. There will still be drama and more adult things, but overall it will be pretty chill. The action of the story will come in when he finishes making the server. As of right now, 4/6/2022, it's looking like this is going to be a slower-paced novel. Hopefully, in the future, I can get the pacing downright. This is my first released story, so feel free to give me all your constructive criticism. I do plan on finishing this story. Please point out any mistakes you see. This novel is also on Webnovel and Scribble Hub.
