In the God Realm, Vexthra, the goddess of Hate and Resentment, is seen on a yoga mat dressed in yoga pants and a tank bra. She stretched her slender figure as she followed the instructions on a large TV, which was showing a yoga class being taught by a group of mortals.
Just a single glance was enough to tell that this goddess might have preferred returning to mortal life rather than remaining a deity. She had fully adapted to the lifestyle of someone on Earth.
Kent had pushed her to embrace this. So, despite not needing yoga to maintain her divine figure, she was doing it anyway. Thankfully, Unity could now talk to her anytime, easing the boredom that came with her celestial existence.
Even so, her mood was down at the moment—Unity was cultivating, after all.
However, her spirits immediately lifted when she sensed a connection forming in her mind. Then, a charming yet teasing voice filled her thoughts, making her smile.
"Kent... I miss you," Vexthra replied, her voice filled with warmth, making Kent smile as he lay in bed, his hand resting on Lilian's chest, gently massaging her boobs.
"Really? Why didn't Unity tell me anything?" Vexthra asked a playful tone in her voice.
"Don't worry, my dear. I'll make sure my new sister becomes the happiest woman in the universe," Vexthra replied with the same cheerful smile.
With Lilian joining, Vexthra knew she would have another sister to talk to and spoil.
Kent truly had become the most fortunate and happiest man alive. His wives were destined to be amazing, especially with a goddess as their big sister to guide and care for them.
"You are the best," Kent said before cutting the connection.
There were still 30 seconds left, and Kent planned to use them well. With Unity and now Lilian about to link to her, she would have all the company she needed for the time being.
Kent wanted to find a way to spend more time with her, but for now, he could only accept the present, as no solution was in sight.
Back in the room, Kent looked at Lilian, who smiled back at him.
"So, what did Unity tell you?" he asked.
"She didn't say much," Lilian replied. "She only told me how amazing it was when she did it with you and how great it would be if I became her sister so we both could pleasure you."
"Only that..." Kent raised an eyebrow, clearly expecting Unity to have told her more—perhaps some secrets at least. But from Lilian's reply, it was evident Unity had said nothing about the harem's abilities or the fact that their big sister was a goddess.
"Yes, only that... She just told me to be ready for anything," Lilian answered with a smile. The look on her face said it all; she was thrilled about her decision to become his woman.
"Then why don't I let you have it," Kent said, taking her hand. "What I'm about to tell you may sound unbelievable, but trust me, it's true. So feel free to take your time to process it before accepting or rejecting it."
Lilian nodded.
"So, it's like this..." Kent began, dropping the bombshell. He unloaded everything he had told Unity onto her.
"Are you being serious?" Lilian asked, her tone sharp with disbelief.
"Big time..."
"So your first wife is a goddess, and if I join your harem, I'll become a sister to a goddess?" Lilian asked, raising an eyebrow.
"That sums up about everything," Kent replied with a smile. It sounded utterly bonkers—something straight out of a wild fantasy—but he was completely serious.
"I just wanted to be with Unity forever, and since we both made a pact to seduce you, I guess I wouldn't back down even if your first wife were a demon," Lilian said, her smile brimming with determination.
"Well... she is a demon, actually," Kent admitted with a grin.
"What..." Lilian's eyes widened in shock, but then her surprise melted into a smile. "Still, I don't mind," she said confidently.
"Okay. Then answer me sincerely... Do you want to join my harem?" Kent asked directly.
"Yes," Lilian replied without hesitation.
"Good. You won't regret this," Kent said with a smile. He then reached out to his wingman—the Tower.
[Congratulations, Master. You have added the third woman to your harem: Lilian Alderford.]
[You have received a new skill from Lilian. Skill Name: Elemental Manipulation.]
"It's official now," Kent said, smiling at Lilian, who was staring at the Tower Tattoo that had appeared below her belly.
"Vexthra will reach out soon, so have fun."
He wasn't even done speaking when Lilian's eyes widened—Vexthra had already reached out, leaving her utterly shocked.
"Have fun," Kent said again, turning back to the messages he'd received. The first two messages gave him a clear sense that his soul strength had grown.
Since the harem system increased his soul strength with every new addition, adding Lilian seemed to have provided a noticeable boost. Even with the small increase, he could feel his power growing steadily.
As for the skill he had received, Kent quickly accessed its details.
***
[Skill Name: Elemental Manipulation]
[Grade: Heaven Grade]
[Rank: S]
[Effect]
-- By picking any conduit, you can channel your elemental energies through it, harnessing them in ways you can manipulate it.
[Ungradable]

'Pretty vague for a Heaven-grade technique,' Kent thought. He had received an Earth-grade skill from Unity, which had been her strongest thus far.
Now, with Lilian's skill in hand, it was clear this was also her most powerful ability. However, the Elemental Manipulation skill seemed frustratingly ambiguous in its description.
[The skill is very powerful, Master. If upgraded well, it can become one of your strongest skills. The reason is simple: this ability allows you to harness your elemental energies—Fire and Lightning, in your case—through your sword.
This means you can manipulate your fire element to form arcs when you swing your sword. It doesn't always have to be an arc; with enough mental strength, you could unleash attacks in the form of a dragon or a tiger, depending on your control over your element.]
'Damn. When you put it that way, I guess it's an overpowered skill,' Kent thought. 'Looks like I'll have to pay more attention to it.'
He smiled, feeling a surge of satisfaction at gaining another skill he could truly rely on. For now, however, his priority was the [Teleport Skill].
After using it to kill the bandits, he recognized its immense potential. That realization motivated him to focus on upgrading it further.
With the ability to enhance both the grade and rank of his skills, who knew what heights the [Teleport Skill] might reach after a few upgrades?
'I need to check out some stuff before Vexthra is done with Lilian...' he thought
