Creak!
The heavy doors of the bridal suite slowly opened, accompanied by the slow rustle of dark silk cloth and the soft click of slippers against the polished stone.
Hearing the sudden sound, Alex moved with lightning instinct.
With a single mental command, his Blackiron Longsword dissolved into thin air and returned to his system storage.
He immediately let his spine go limp, collapsing back against the small mountain of soft velvet pillows.
While suppressing the fierce surge of his newly awakened Sword Intent, he deliberately made his breathing shallow, uneven, and breathy.
He forced his facial muscles to slacken, showing an expression of helpless, exhausted vulnerability on his flushed face.
Alex didn't want the Wraith Lord to realize his Master-rank binding curse had already been shattered, or else the monster might come back in person before he was fully prepared.
However, the immediate concern right now was the two that entered the room.
"Did you hear that sound earlier… it sounded like someone's moaning?" a soft, slightly cold voice whispered at the doorway.
"Yes... It sounded like a sudden moan. And also, do you feel it? Why did the temperature suddenly drop?" another voice answered, filled with curiosity.
Through half-lidded eyes, Alex watched two slender women step into the flickering glow of the remaining blue spirit candles.
They were ghost maids assigned to the obsidian tower, but unlike the rotting, screeching wraiths in the graveyard below, these two were genuine B-Rank Ghost Spirits that had successfully reconstituted flawless, physical human bodies.
With slightly cold, eerie aura constantly surrounding them.
The first maid, who looked like a graceful young woman in her early twenties with pale silver hair tied in a long braid, wore a provocative gothic-style black and white maid dress.
The hem of her skirt was very short, barely covering the curve of her thighs, while the tight corset squeezed a pair of full, plump C-cup breasts high above a ruffled lace neckline.
The second maid, taller with medium-length black hair and sharp, seductive features, possessed an even more voluptuous hourglass figure, her generous D-cup bust practically spilling out of her low-cut bodice with every step.
Both possessed porcelain-white, ghost-like skin, sharp ruby-red eyes, and the lingering, cold chill of high-tier ghost entities.
"Look at the spirit candles... three of them were frozen and shattered," the silver-haired maid murmured, stepping toward the bed with light, cautious steps.
"Could the Lord's seal be acting up?" the black-haired maid questioned, her gaze dropping onto the huge four-poster bed.
The moment their eyes locked onto defenseless Alex lying sprawled on the bed, both maids froze in their tracks.
The visual impact was devastating, as Alex looked breathtakingly beautiful in the skin-tight scarlet vinyl corset.
His flushed, dark pink nipples strained aggressively against the sheer embroidery, hard from the constant arousal, his breasts rising and falling with his ragged, panting breaths.
His long, silky black hair cascaded over the velvet pillows like dark water, showing a delicate, sweaty face with parted rose lips and wide, misty eyes.
"Goddess..." the silver-haired maid breathed, her eyes widening in pure shock and amazement. "The Lord's new bride... she's so exquisite and sexy."
"How can a human woman possess such flawless skin?" the black-haired maid murmured, her voice losing its sharp edge as she stepped closer to the edge of the mattress.
"Look at those ripe, heavy mounds... and that tiny waist… Even as a woman, just watching her makes me unable to control myself; it's no wonder that Lord likes her and wants her to be his bride…"
However, before either maid could find any anomalies, they crossed the invisible boundary of the Lust Domain (Small Scale – Lv 3) that Alex naturally radiated.
Whoosh—
The thick, concentrated scent of Alex's level three Pheromone Secretion washed over them like a tidal wave
To Ghost entities whose physical bodies were formed from reconstituted Yin essence, this undiluted, pure Yin aphrodisiac was nothing short of a divine, intoxicating poison.
The effect was slow, but the silver-haired maid's pupils dilated as her irises were almost entirely swallowed by darkness.
A deep, feverish crimson flush surged up her pale neck, staining her cheeks. Her knees wobbled, a sudden, ragged gasp escaping her parted lips.
"Ah... what is this smell...?" she whimpered, her hands flying to her own chest, clutching her maid uniform as her nipples hardened into stiff points against the fabric. "It's so sweet... Why is my head spinning… and what is this weird feeling?"
The other maid reacted fast as she caught herself on the bedpost.
Her breathing turned wet and rapid. Under the short black skirt, heat rushed through her silk panties and ran down her inner thighs.
"It's… Itss… Pure Yin essence…" she groaned, dazed and hungry. "It's the bride… I think it's her body, that's causing this… I.. I should inform the Lord immediately!"
Alex kept the weak look on his face and tightened the domain a fraction, not planning on letting them leave here; if possible, he wanted to squeeze them dry.
The Charm Pulse slowly worked under the pheromone scent like a second heartbeat.
As he experienced in the previous memory simulation, the Lust Resonance slowly caught the first spark of want, slowly amplifying it and feeding it back into the two ghost women, hotter each time.
The air in the bedroom slowly thickened with every minute, and acted directly on the B-Rank spirits with real bodies, just as Alex thought.
"What a huge emotional output. If I play this right, I should be able to absorb at least a hundred points of source power." He felt the sudden increase in the empathic energy around him, combined with cold Yin attribute mana inside the two ghosts' bodies.
There is a risk in doing this: the acceleration of his feminization, but he is already halfway up in becoming a complete woman, and without any help from the Empress, he could only do what he could do right now to escape from here.
Even if it accelerates his feminization, he still planned on using the Lust Domain to counterreact the Ghost Domain.
"However, to do this… I shouldn't let them alert the Wraith Lord…" But to successfully do that, he quickly began acting to seduce them.
The high feminine voice trembled on purpose. "Who… who are you…?"
He slowly squirmed against the soft pillows so that his heavy breasts jiggled inside the tight scarlet cups. "Please… don't touch me… I… I can't move… "
"Why did you bring me here… Let me leave… Please let me leave!!" Watching him act so helpless and seductive, whatever discipline the ghost spirit had completely broke.
"Don't be afraid," the silver-haired maid whispered, already husky.
She quickly climbed onto the bed. "We are only here to check on how you're holding up… and to make sure you are properly prepared for the upcoming ceremony tonight."
"Yes. We must make sure your body is soft and receptive for our lord to truly have fun," the black-haired maid agreed, crawling onto the other side.
Her eyes completely locked on his large cleavage.
The silver-haired maid reached out with cool fingers and touched his bare collarbone.
Zzzzt.
Because of the Lust domain, sharp pleasure snapped through both of them.
"Ahhn…!" Alex let out a breathy whisper and arched a little, as if the touch had already overwhelmed him.
Under his skin, the Void Yin Constitution opened like a quiet whirlpool. Through that single point of contact, he slowly started drinking the residue of her arousal and mana.

"One point from a casual touch?' Even under the sudden spike of intense pleasure, Alex's heart leaped with joy. 'High-tier spirits provide far more refined energy than ordinary humans!'
"She's so warm. So soft," On the other hand, Mia moaned. Her fingers slowly slid down the slope of Alex's right breast.
She cupped the overflowing soft mound and tested its weight. When she squeezed, soft flesh spilled between her fingers.
"Nhiii!!" Alex let out another soft moan…
"Look how ripe they are," Mia whispered to her partner. Her thumb brushed the stiff peak through sheer scarlet lace. "They're so full. Just touching them makes my own body ache."
"Let me feel," the black-haired maid breathed, and took his left breast in both her hands.
Both maids were now actively fondling his chest, their cool, smooth hands kneading the soft mounds with slow, circular motions.
They pinched his hard nipples between their thumb and forefingers, rolling and tugging the sensitive flesh until the dark-pink peaks stood painfully tight against the lace.
"Nngh… ah… please… stop pinching them…!" Alex gasped… feeling slightly overwhelmed as he didn't expect his own domain to act like this on himself, as tears of overstimulation pricked the corners of his eyes.
Even though he was planning on acting to deceive them, due to experiencing the Lust Domain for the first time in the real world with his real body, the sudden physical sensation and the feedback from the domain were becoming overwhelmingly real.
Phase Three had woken thousands of new nerve endings.
Every roll of their fingers sent heat sliding down his spine into his pelvis.
Under the glossy vinyl corset, his cinched waist twisted against the silk. His hips rocked in a slow, helpless rhythm that only made the maids hungrier.

Just then, inside his consciousness, the Silver Serpent Empress chuckled lazily, her voice mocking him in his thoughts.
"My, my, look at how easily you entice them, darling. Moaning and acting like a true Enchantress while draining them dry. You're getting better at this every day."
"Shut up," Alex fired back mentally, biting his lower lip as the black-haired maid leaned down, pressing her warm lips against his bare shoulder before trailing a line of wet, open-mouthed kisses along his throat.
