Chapter 34 - Imperial Bond

As Lulu's throat worked him to the finish, a crisp notification rang in Shin's mind.

Ding!

Lord has received a Conception Gift Package.

New Troop Bracket Unlocked: [Imperial Dracoguard]

Elite hybrid units born from dragon blood and Emperor Monster essence. Each soldier is infused with elemental power, capable of adapting to terrain, casting battlefield spells, and transforming into a draconic warform when morale peaks.

Base Stats (Pre-Ascension):

• STR: 30

• DEF: 35

• AGI: 28

• END: 40

• INT: 22

• CHA: 20

Unique Traits:

• Draconic Resilience: Immune to fear, poison, and charm

• Elemental Shift: Adapts to one of four Emperor elements based on battle conditions

• Warform Trigger: Once per battle, transforms into a half-dragon for 30 seconds, greatly boosting all stats

• Loyal to the Flame: Unshakable loyalty to Shin's dynasty (100% die-hard)

Grinning down at the dragoness who had thoroughly pleased him, Shin called out mentally, "Heart, what's the gender?"

Big Brother! Heart chimed excitedly. It's a boy—and he's destined to be a ruler!

With a proud smirk, Shin gave Lulu's toned rear a firm slap. "Come, my dear. Let's collect your dowry and return home."

As they walked the winding path to the treasury, Lulu's fingers traced the glowing seal now etched on her lower belly. "Darling… this mark?"

"That's the Harem Seal," Shin said. "It connects me to all my wives—mentally, magically, emotionally."

Her eyes sparkled. "So I can speak to my sisters now?"

"Just focus."

Lulu closed her eyes—and the thread formed instantly.

Lulu (telepathically): Hello, sisters. I'm Darling's newest mate—his second dragon wife. I've reached Level 1 Ascension and I'm nearly at Level 2.

Velzard: Welcome, sister. I'm Shin's first wife—and first dragon mate. You have my respect.

Shego: Looks like Daddy bagged another fire-breather. Congrats on the pregnancy.

Nina: Welcome to the family, Lulu.

Lara: We're happy to have you.

Boa: A strong sister makes us stronger. Welcome.

Shin smiled. "We'll teleport home soon. Everyone can meet you properly."

All: Yes, dear.

Then Lara teased: Husband… can we invite Kaelira to our nightly activities?

"If she agrees," Shin shrugged. "She's the only one not pregnant yet."

Laughter echoed through the thread.

Lara: The other Lionheart ladies said they'll come for the wedding—and they want the estate. They said they'll marry you only after getting their turn to bear your children.

Shin chuckled. "Then I'll give them what they want—after I crush the Goblin Emperor. I want our people to feel invincible before we go up against Eldric."

POV: Lulu

As we stepped into the treasury, a pulse of ancient power surged beneath our feet. The corridor lit up with draconic sigils, reacting to our bloodlines—his Void Dragon legacy, and mine.

When the doors opened, the air itself seemed to hold its breath.

Mountains of wealth sprawled before us—gold fit to drown empires, jewels that glimmered like frozen lightning, and rare metals that hummed with god-slaying potential.

But four crystals, perched on sacred pedestals, outshone everything.

"That one," I pointed, "is from the Abyssal Leviathan."

"That's the Tectonic Wyrm Core," he added.

"This is the Coral Serpent Queen's."

"And that… the Sky Sovereign Roc."

They pulsed with power—no mere relics or artifacts. These were icons of an ancient age.

POV: Shin

They weren't just powerful—they were kingdom-changers.

"You're giving me all this?" I asked, stunned.

Lulu pressed her forehead against mine. "I was my father's heir… but you are my King."

Ding!

She kissed me—fierce, claiming—then whispered, "Now you have my body, my soul… and the power to reshape the world."

POV: Lulu – Manor Lounge

The moment we arrived, I was swarmed with warm embraces and shining smiles.

Velzard pulled me close. "That glow—you're already pregnant, aren't you?"

I nodded proudly.

Even Boa smiled.

Nina guided me to the couch. "Tell us everything. Ascension path? Cravings? Mood swings? Do you breathe fire or ice?"

Lara brought snacks. Shego sprawled upside-down across the cushions.

And just like that… I wasn't alone.

I was home.

POV: Shin – Study

While the women bonded, I entered my study and summoned the Lionheart Mirror. Elise appeared—white hair tied back, glasses glinting, beauty radiant.

"Darling," she purred. "What's the occasion?"

"I have a mountain of gems. Can you move them?"

Her eyes gleamed. "Show me the list. I'll turn millions in a week."

"I want leverage—trade, alliances. And if possible, more Emperor monster cores or bloodline ritual items."

Elise bit her lip. "Give me three days. I'll turn your hoard into gold, influence, and marriage proposals."

"Perfect. And Elise?"

"Yes?"

"Keep the void-cut obsidian set. Matches your eyes."

She blushed… then smirked. "Consider it done."

POV: Lulu – Lounge

Shego brushed her tail against me. "Is Shin always this intense?"

Velzard: He wrecks you, marks you, loves you—then starts a war before breakfast.

Nina: And he pouts when we tease him.

We laughed.

Lara tucked a flower behind my ear. "You're one of us now. We share him—but we rise together."

I smiled, deeply moved. "Thank you… sisters."

Shego: "Group hug!"

Boa: "Careful—we're pregnant!"

Velzard: "We're carrying dragons. A hug won't hurt us."

POV: Shin – Study

As Elise's image faded, I called for Heart.

"Little sister—can the wives still fight in the night battles?"

Big Brother, Heart replied, they're carrying dragons. They're strong enough. Just give them more food and rest. They'll need to stop fighting by the sixth month.

"Good." I stood. "Let's go ask them."

POV: Lounge – Moments Later

Shin entered and shared Heart's news.

Velzard rose. "We carry dragons, my love. We are among the strongest women alive—because of you. We will fight. We will Ascend. Right, sisters?"

All: "Yes!"

• Shego: "I want to ascend before my bloodline awakens."

• Lulu: "One more battle and I'll hit Level 20."

• Boa: "Ascension will help me prepare for the dual bloodline ritual."

• Nina: "I want to grow stronger."

• Lara: "I'm a Valkyrie—I'll become one of your mightiest blades."

Lulu turned to him, eyes bright. "Darling, can you summon the new troops? The Imperial Dracoguard?"

Shin nodded. "Of course."

Heart, he asked, why did Lulu's bracket come with ready troops while the others didn't?

Because she's already Ascended, Heart chirped.

Shin smirked. "Then let's make history—dragons at our side."
