After parting with Cecelia, Alex and Alina reached the Melbourne in few seconds.
Looking down at the jubilant city of millions, now clamoring and lightened, Alex and Alina had a nostalgic feeling.
Alex scanned the whole city with his gaze.
The living humans moved around the city like ants.
The collapsed buildings were being repaired, roads were being built and shops were being assigned.
These people now no longer had to fear apocalyptic environment, since the Almighty barrier now protected them.
" Brother, let's go see our mom. She must be getting anxious, " Alina asked while holding Alex's hand to her breasts speaking cutely.
She clearly didn't value these humans as much as her own mother.
Alex also looked at Hawks Family mansion, his piercing gaze landing on a delicate looking noblewoman dressed in a red gown.
Aurora Mastiford.
Thinking about the woman again, Alex felt his heart soften involuntarily.
This was the effect of memories he had inherited.
" You go. I'll come after seeing them, " Alex spoke, as he looked at two lights that appeared from the city.
Alina displeasedly looked at two beautiful women before her, " No. I'll wait for you. "
" As you wish, " Alex said, turning to Vienna and Alsa.
" You two have done a great job, " Alex praised.
Vienna bowed happily, " It was nothing. Thank you for your praise Master. "
Alsa was also happy to be praised, " You made me work like a animal, better make it upto me later. "
Alex laughed, " Yeah. I'll ride you enough to make it up to you. "
Alsa couldn't help but blush, as she rebuked, " That's not what I meant! "
Alex waved his hand, as he pulled Alsa closer and kissed her.
" Why are you still wearing clothes, so annoying, " With a thought, Alex stripped her naked.
" W-What are you doing!? Kyaa... N-Not here... "
" Sis, Vienna, hold her hands! " Alex ordered, bringing Alsa in a position to take dick.
" Y-You shameless... " Alsa cursed while blushing.
" Why don't you state the reports of today's work Alsa, " Alex teased.
Alsa blushed deeply, remembering this was how Alex and Cynthia bullied her every time she came to them with work reports.
And just like always, as Alex's touch reached her, she lost even the strength to take extra breaths and became the slave to him.
" Ahh~ "
" Your insides are so soft Alsa, I'll mess them up for you, " Alex commented, while spreading her asscheeks and exposing her butthole.
He leisurely streched it, making Alsa gasp in shame as she closed her eyes, " S-Stop~ Ah... "
" Please don't mind the intrusion, " Alex said and pulled out his cock from Alsa's pussy and plunged it into her lonely asshole.
" Ohh... T-That part again... "
At the same time, he pulled Vienna to him and kissed her breasts and sucked on her nipples
" Master~ Please suck them all you want ~ " The woman closed her eyes, trying to stick out her chest as much as possible, while gently cradling Alex's head.
Alex slowly savored the two hard working women, and finally inseminated their mouths.
Alsa was previously quite a bit resistant to drinking semen. But, now easily got hooked and instinctively looked at Alex's cock while still feeling the aftertaste in her mouth.
" Work hard and you'll get more, " Alex patted her head. Hell bent on corrupting her more.
Alsa felt ashamed, knowing that her gaze was noticed, " I don't want such disgusting thing. I'm leaving! "
She raised herself and quickly left.
Alex smiled, and patted Vienna's bottom, " Take care of her. "
Seeing two women leaving, Alex turned to Alina who was staring at him dazedly.
" B-Brother~ " She clearly wanted some.
But, Alex waved his hand and both now appeared at Hawks Family mansion.
Alina calmed down while her face was still flushed.
She then looked at Alex, " Brother, should I change into something else? "
Alex looked at her leotard which looked worse than being naked.
So, he nodded and stripped Alina bare.
" This is better. Now follow me, " Alex ordered.
Alina was stunned, as cold wind caressed her skin.
She didn't want to meet her mother like this, but as Alex left she instinctively followed his steps, unable to disobey his orders.
Next moment they were before a certain room. The two maids there bowed and quickly opened the door.
Alex chuckled seeing Alina fidgeting nervously and embarrassed.
" Let's go sis, you first, " Alex said.
" B-But... " Alina blushed looking down at her naked body.
What will her mother think, if she sees her like this!?
" Okay. Let's go together, " Alex smiled and pulled Alina inside.
The woman who had been resting on the bed, had already woken up when the door was pushed open.
" Didn't I say, I don't want to see anyon- "
Aurora thought that it was one of those eerily beautiful maids or Hawks family members in mansion, who looked crazy and dangerous to her.
She had already seen enough of them, who loved to bring gifts for her and flatter her like she was their mother-in-law.
But, now seeing Alex and Alina, her words stopped.
She wordlessly stood up and with tears falling down her eyes.
She didn't even bother with anything before reaching them and embracing her children.
Alex was slightly surprised, noticing that this woman had also touched him, who she had always stayed away from as if he was some disease.
The memories he had inherited urged him to embrace this woman back, bask in her solace and sob for her love.
But, such things barely moved Alex.
On the other hand, Alina wasn't same as Alex, just like her mother she also started crying over this reunion.
After a moment Alex uncomfortably distanced himself from two women.
This also awakened, Aurora and Alina who looked at him.
"... " Aurora looked at Alex hesitantly, her eyes complicated.
" Do you want to say sorry? It's too late Aurora Mastiford. I don't know what were your reasons for making my life hell for all those years. But, for me what matters are not intentions but your actions, " Alex replied indignantly, like he was oppressed himself for all those years by Aurora's unjust behavior.
He had already understood, Aurora's mindset now.
She must be feeling guilty!
But, his thoughts soon stopped, as he was next held by collar and was violently shaken.
" No. Who are you? Where's my Alex? What did you do to him?! " By the last words, Aurora was already screaming.
Her eyes bloodshot as if she was about to kill Alex.
' Huh. She recognized me this fast? ' Alex was slightly surprised, but it made sense since she had lived with him since he was born and he hadn't bothered to act.
" Since you know, things are even easier now, " Alex smiled, and with a snap a table full of tools appeared in the room.
Alina was horrified, as she looked at those torture tools which had already been used on her before.
" Brother, you have to first turn mom just like you did to me, otherwise she won't be able to survive your methods... " Alina tearfully said while protectively standing before Aurora.
" Back then, I had to regretfully brainwash you before taking my revenge properly for I wasn't strong enough to handle you back then. But, there is no particular need now sister. Also, this time I won't be the one using these things, but it will be YOU, " Alex smirked while pointing at various dangerous torture tools.
Their sharpness and terror undeniable.
Alina who had experienced them once firsthand knew what evil things could be done with them.
But, Alex's words sent chill down her spine.
She cried, "W-w-what??!! "
When Alex flatly kept looking at her, slowly reality sank in.
" N-No... I don't want to... Please, brother. I beg you... Please don't make me do it... Please... "
Aurora was shocked to see her daughter on ground, begging Alex like a dog.
She became furious, she pointed at Alex, " W-Who are you?! What did you do to my daughter!? "
She moved forward to hit Alex, her form seemed perfect. No doubt she had martial arts training.
But, next moment she was stopped in place by unseen power.
Alex smiled leisurely, while watching the show.
He hadn't made a move, Alina had stopped Aurora by herself.
She pitifully looked at Alex, begging him not to force her.
But, Alex just smiled benevolently, " Don't worry, I'll not let her die. After you do this, I'll completely forgive you and your mother for what you did to me before. "
Hearing so, Alina looked up at Alex with excitement.
" Y-You will forgive us? ... Really?? "
Alex just nodded again with a clear smile.
Alina after staying with Alex for so long knew, that he wasn't serious about those words.
But, those words were hope.
Hope to remove the terrible stain on her.
She wanted to be forgiven by Alex, and for that she could do anything.
Aurora still hadn't completely understood her predicament, but seeing the crazy look in her daughter's eyes, her heart was filled with fear.
" A-Alina... "
Her daughter now turned to her and said with crazed smile, " Mom, it's for both of us. So that brother will forgive us. Don't you want to be forgiven? I'll help you. I'll help you. "
Slap!
Aurora slapped Alina, " You have gone insane! That isn't your brother! What happened to you!? "
Alina didn't mind the slap, as she kept smiling before turning to the torture table.
With her one thought, the mana around moved beautifully to do her bidding like she was its Master.
The thorn bindings lifted automatically, and reached bewildered Aurora, locking onto her hands.
" Argh!!! " Aurora cried in pain, as the thorns pierced her wrists and ankles.
The blood trickled down.
Alina stopped for a moment, seeing her mother's painful expression.
Hesitation flashed in her mind, but hope for forgiveness erased all those thoughts as she moved to next weapons.
" Mom, don't worry. More pain you feel, more you will be forgiven, " Alina spoke in her crazy voice.
Meanwhile Alex watched all this from front seat, with hint of interest.
He had played with many mother-daughter pairs by now. But, such bloody play was first for him in a while.
Also, his sister was quite ruthless as she started with worst methods from the start...
' Hehe. This is fun... '
Hours passed.
Alex looked at the current scene of gory and blood before him.
His step-mother Aurora Mastiford, was now barely clinging to her last breath.
Her whole body was bloodied, her skin flayed, her arteries and veins bleeding, muscles and even bones visible at places.
She looked like a ghost.
She couldn't even scream, not because she was exhausted but because her vocal cords were already ripped off.
" Tsk. Tsk. You're ruthless sister. To do this to your own mother. You should be ashamed, " Alex said, while taking the sip of the red wine.
Well, it wasn't actually wine but his step-mother's blood.
Feeling almost negligible enhancement it provided to him, Alex sighed.
' This essence still provides much lesser enhancement than their primal essence... '
" Take this and drink, " With a thought Alex gave the glass to Alina, whose naked body was also covered in blood.
Her face though was laced with crazed smile.
She hurriedly took the glass and drank the bloody wine, while happily prostrating before Alex.
" B-Brother, I finished it... I did everything you said... Do you forgive me now? I'll never hurt you again. I'll do whatever you want, " Alina said.
Alex smiled and nodded happily, before stepping on Alina's head and mercilessly grinding her chin to the ground.
" Forgiveness? No. I will torture you for your whole life. Whenever I want. Wherever I want. Until the day, I forget about you, " Alex said with a sadistic smile, before kicking Alina away.
With his current strength she was flung away like trash, crashing through the pillars before smashing into the wall.
Her lithe figure pitifully fell down and curled up on side before she started sobbing quietly.
... Afraid to even disturb Alex.
Alex now went to his step-mother, the woman who had always been looked up to by his previous self.
But, now she was on brink of death. She couldn't see, hear or feel anything at this moment.
But, deep in her soul a voice seeped into, bringing unimaginable terror into her being.
" I can't let you die... You also need to be punished more my dear mother, " Alex smirked.
* * * *
The late morning's arrival in Melbourne this time wasn't accompanied by hellish heat.
The people rejoiced in the name of Godess who had bestowed them with such relief.
Some even created cults to worship Alsa Ashford.
At the same time, a middle aged man was led inside Hawks Family Mansion.
The man was tall and even though he looked slightly thin and unkempt, his appearance was better than most men out there.
Jaime Mastiford tugged on his suit's collar, feeling the familiar yet unfamiliar sensation of wearing such clothes before apocalypse.
This morning, he had seen a dream depicting his daughter Alina...
' Dad, please come to Hawks Family's mansion. I'll be waiting for you there... '
Her sweet smile was clear as current sky in Jaime's mind.
That was why, he had come here first thing in morning after having breakfast.
Yeah. Some things couldn't be done empty stomach!
Fortunately as soon as he arrived, a woman in black bodysuit led him to change clothes as if she had recognized him.
His questions obviously fell on deaf ears, as he was then told to enter the mansion without anymore information.
Jaime sighed and looked around. There wasn't a soul except him nearby.
Those sexy looking women in dark bodysuits had stopped far behind.
Soon enough, a mansion gate appeared in his vision.
As Jaime went closer, he found out it was open.
He looked left and right, wondering if anyone was nearby.
" Anyone here? " He called, but none answered.
Slightly confused, Jaime hesitated, but still pushed the gate to enter.
But as soon as Jaime went in, he was stunned, " T-This..!?"
It was home.
It was his home!
Jaime rubbed his eyes and looked around.
It was really his home, there was his neighborhood.
He was standing right before his house's gate.
A neighborhood woman passed by him.
He recognized her, as she waved at him.
It was too familiar...
By habit, he also nodded at the woman who smiled at him before walking towards her house.
Jaime didn't know what was happening..
' Have I returned to the time before everything went wrong?! '
Such thought passed in his mind, before he checked himself.
He was wearing his office suit, the injuries on his body had disappeared.
He felt his face, it wasn't as sunken as before, his hair were thick, his lips weren't chapped.
Jaime's body trembled, as he looked down at both of his hands.
Tears flew down his eyes, as reality sank in.
" I-I reincarnated.... "
