"Alright, let's talk." Alex said as he gazed upon the two sisters before him, Daphne Greengrass and her younger sister, Astoria.
They, along with several other Hogwarts sixth and seventh years, had followed Hermione and the other Gryffindor girls into Asora for the night after they apparently raved about Alex all day. Of course, each girl had her own reasons for toying with the idea of bedding Alex.
On the Slytherin side, it was the promise of potential benefits by aligning themselves with Alex, who was now the largest political figure in the wizarding world. There was also the fact that Hermione and the other Gryffindor girls that bedded Alex were notably stronger witches after just a single night, which only served as further temptation for the power-hungry witches.
The Ravenclaws meanwhile were interested in the vast amounts of knowledge that Alex could offer them, including the various forms of previously unknown magic that both Alex and Hermione displayed. Plus they had also heard from Padma about his prowess, as the only non-Gryffindor that had been present the previous night, and those who had developed the habit of reading smut books in their spare time were also interested in the things Alex could do.
And finally there were the Hufflepuffs, who were the fewest in number for the moment as most of those that did come only did so out of curiosity. Not all of them though, as Susan had followed Hermione into Asora, and the space-time orb, on the advice of her aunt, Amelia Bones.
Obviously Amelia wouldn't sell her only niece, and heiress to the house of Bones, but she did ask Susan to learn anything more about Alex that she could. And while Susan didn't play the same political games that the Slytherins did, she was aware enough of her position to know exactly how to help her aunty.
The two young witches currently before Alex though had notably different motives for entering Asora and the space-time orb. Their family's blood curse.
"So you're saying that this curse was inflicted upon one of your ancestors centuries ago, and has the potential to show itself randomly in ANY Greengrass at any point throughout their life?" Alex asked to confirm everything Daphne just told him.
"Yes. Some, like Astoria, are born while being burdened by this curse. Others, like myself, live with the threat of it emerging lingering over our heads for our entire lives, though it may never do so."
"I see..." Alex said as he looked the two girls up and down, before waving his hand to relieve them of their robes.
"!!!"
Daphne, having already experienced this before, only had her eye twitch in response. Astoria however was markedly different, as her hands immediately tried to cover her now exposed body from the man before her.
Alex however, despite enjoying the view, was acting in a purely academic manner as he examined the bodies of the two girls, both outer and inner.
Daphne's pale complexion extended throughout her entire body, the only exception being her red ears from Alex suddenly stripping her, and her light pink nipples. In addition, her hair was borderline black until it caught the light, revealing it to instead be a very dark green. It was obviously her natural color, as Astoria was the same, and Daphne even had a carefully maintained strip of pubic hair that matched the curtains. Alex couldn't help wondering if it was how her family got the name 'Greengrass'.
On the other side was Astoria, mirroring her sister in appearance aside from a few key points.
Firstly was that while Daphne was skinny, she was healthily so. Astoria meanwhile appeared borderline anorexic with how thin she was, appearing almost sickly. Then there was the fact that Astoria was a mere two years younger than Daphne, yet her development seemed so stunted that she appeared even younger than that.
After scrutinizing their outward appearances, Alex promptly placed his hands above both of their hearts at the same time, cupping their left breasts in the process as he analyzed their bodies in more depth.
"!!!"
"..."
Astoria's response was predictably cute as her body tensed and she nearly yelped from suddenly being groped, while Daphne just silently narrowed her eyes at Alex as he analyzed them.
In Daphne's body, Alex could feel the curse within her as it saturated every single organ and drop of blood, bidding its time before it would strike. The edges of Alex's mouth curled upwards slightly as he internally likened the curse to a snake, poised to strike at the first opportunity. It was a humorous comparison due to the fact that Daphne was a Slytherin, which was the house of serpents.
In Astoria's case though, Alex could feel the curse actively attacking her body in a methodical manner that left her incredibly weakened, yet never going so far as to threaten her life. He could feel the curse attacking her immune system, depriving her body of nutrients, and even interrupting the flow of magic throughout her body.
Alex concluded that, while the curse itself wasn't life threatening, it was designed to systematically weaken the target in such a way as to allow their survival, but at great cost and suffering while also leaving them vulnerable to outside threats, like disease. At least in Astoria's case.
Seeing everything he needed, Alex retracted his hands from their breasts before sitting onto the couch behind him, motioning for the two girls to do the same, though he didn't redress them.
"Alright. First of all, I CAN cure you two of the curse while also making it so none of your bloodline will ever bear it again." Alex began, prompting probably the happiest look he had ever seen on Astoria's face yet at the news she could be cured.
"And what will be the cost of this cure?" Daphne asked him testily, her eyes drifting towards Alex's still-covered crotch.
"No cost, because neither of you would ever be able to repay it." Alex stated firmly, surprising the two girls before they both became notably suspicious.
"And what exactly does that mean? Are your services so expensive?"
"Not exactly no." Alex answered while shaking his head, before saying in a serious tone while leaning forward, "the problem is that you would need to account for what it is I'm actually doing for you.
"If this were some curse that was afflicting just the two of you, like if someone cursed you two in your cradle or something, then the situation would be completely different. Instead, this curse is completely bonded to your bloodline. So, by curing the two of you, I'm also effectively curing however many descendants you two have down the road. The price you'll have to pay is the price of the life for every single potential Greengrass that will exist in the future. Something tells me you can't exactly pay such a steep price."
In contrast to their earlier suspicion, both Daphne and Astoria blinked in realization at the truth of Alex's words. Though they could argue that Alex was wrong, as he would only be treating the two of them, they both knew that in the eyes of magic itself, Alex was right.
Realizing this made both of them change their initial opinions about him, as Alex could have easily taken advantage of such a factor to basically indebt the entire Greengrass legacy to him as his servants. Heaven knows that almost any other pure-blood family would have, in a heartbeat.
On one hand it showed the nobility in Alex's heart to refuse equivalent payment for treating them, but on the other it also showed naivety on his behalf. At least that was how they saw it.
"So if there is no cost for our cure, then what is it?" Daphne asked, even as her mind started running through all the possible scenarios for her family's future once they were rid of the curse. After all, the curse was the reason why their family dwindled to such an extent, with most of their resources going towards finding a cure while also making them limit themselves on producing offspring and marrying into certain families.
"Basically a BIG dose of vitamin D, taken either orally, vaginally, or anally, immediately. Though if you want the best results, then I'd recommend at least one dose in all three." Alex told her with a straight face.
"Are you serious?" Daphne asked without missing a single beat.
"No! Why do people keep asking that? We don't even look alike!"
"..."
Daphne just deadpanned from Alex's joke, before adopting a look of resignation as she rose to her feet. After all, she couldn't pretend that this wasn't going to happen eventually.
It had already been proven several times that those who had sex with Alex became stronger, both physically and magically, with Granger and the rest of the Gryffindor harlots being the biggest example. And Daphne knew for a fact that the rest of the Slytherin girls planned to spread their legs for him the first chance they got for that very reason, as well as for the chance to advance themselves and their own families.
So in a way, this curse could be seen as a blessing since Daphne and Astoria could get a head start on the rest of the Slytherins, even if it wasn't by much.
Steeling her resolve, Daphne knelt down in front of Alex while simultaneously reaching for the waistband of his shorts, pulling them down in an attempt to free the beast contained within them. What Daphne had not expected was for said 'beast' to spring free all of a sudden before slapping her in the face of its own will.
...
"I love being me." Alex said quietly as he basked in the afterglow of the 'medical treatment' of both Daphne and Astoria.
While the curse hadn't been active in Daphne previously, she was now completely rid of it while the magic flowing throughout her body was stronger than ever.
The biggest change though was Astoria, who was also curse free for the first time in her life.
While Alex didn't believe in magically altering the physical appearance of his girls, he made an exception for Astoria since her appearance was due to the curse, and not her own natural body. That didn't mean he altered her drastically though.
All Alex did was poor extra nourishment into Astoria's body so that she no longer appeared malnourished, her cheeks had a healthy red hue, and her dark green hair had a certain luster that had been absent before.
Now Alex was laying back on the bed he had conjured for them to use in lieu of the couches that had been present before, and he had both girls snuggled up to him on either side as they slumbered peacefully.
After resting with them for a while, Alex slowly disentangled himself from their clutches before conjuring a warm body pillow to take his place so he could go and check on the rest of the girls. He then proceeded to sneak out of the room so that they could rest peacefully until they were both ready to get up.
And almost as soon as he stepped out of the door, Alex was greeted by a scene of chaos.
*Crash!*
"HA! If you think that'll be enough, then think again princess fussy britches!" Declared the girl who was standing atop the large boulder that had fallen in front of Alex, Toph.
"Such a deplorable tone... I shall correct your errant behavior immediately!" Declared Azula, whose entire body was magmatic as she rushed at Toph angrily.
"So what'd I miss?" Alex asked as he Gated to Anne's side, who was watching the exchange with several of the other girls. Some were taking bets, others were eating snacks, and a select few appeared worried about the exchange in blows between the two women.
"Basically Toph was being....well Toph, and Azula got mad at her for it." Anne explained, which didn't actually explain anything, but Alex understood all the same.
"Well, Toph should wrap this up pretty soon." Alex said casually as he too conjured a bag of popcorn to munch on.
"That was my estimation as well." Said a petite girl with long blonde hair as she approached them, before taking a seat in Alex's lap.
"Hello Mavis." Alex greeted the founder of Fairy Tail warmly, both verbally and by cupping her nearly non-existent breasts.
"Hello. That girl you brought back this time is quite interesting." Mavis said while rubbing her butt against Alex's shaft, which was still exposed since he never redressed after leaving Daphne and Astoria.
"Oh yeah? Thinking of trying to snatch her up?" Alex asked, referring to the Asoran branch of the Fairy Tail guild.
"Would that be a problem?"
"Not at all. In fact, that would probably be the best place for Toph to go." Alex replied after a moment of thought.
After all, Fairy Tail was one of the guilds where people could take contracts for work fighting monsters and so on for pay. Not only would Toph fit in at the guild with her personality, but would quite literally get paid for going out and beating things up every day. There was only one slight problem.
"Just to warn you, Toph doesn't care for any type of authority." Alex warned her, having already learned quite a bit of Toph's home life before he brought her here. For example, the reason she had been naked when he transported her was because she was busy waiting for her servants to pick out her clothes for the night, which was a tedious process since they liked to treat her like a helpless doll to dress up at their pleasure.
"I'm aware. And I believe the only real cause for concern would be her interacting with future clients on her own. Plus there is her sight to consider..."
Mavis looked up at Alex pointedly when she said this, to which he nodded in agreement.
"I already plan to talk to her about it."
Naturally, Alex planned to heal Toph's sight for her despite the fact that it was precisely her blindness that led to her becoming so skilled and powerful as an earth bender.
The problem was that there were too many risks with her lack of sight for her to actually take on jobs by herself that didn't exist in her world, such as flying monsters/opponents. With all of her sight being focused on the vibrations in the ground that she could feel through her feet, it would be impossible for Toph to fight against enemies that never even had to touch the ground.
Not only that, but Toph also couldn't read due to her lack of sight as well, meaning she would never be able to pick out her own contracts if she tried to take work for the guild. But that would also raise the problem of trying to get Toph to learn to read, which Alex planned to pawn onto either Sona or Athena to deal with.
Alex explained most of this to Mavis even as they continued watching the fight between Azula and Toph with interest, and Mavis hiked up the back of her dress to actually take Alex's cock inside her nonchalantly at the same time.
Soon, as Alex predicted, Toph won the battle between herself and the Fire Nation princess as she started bending Azula herself.
Though he hadn't told Katara yet, Alex knew of a forbidden water bending technique known as blood bending, in which the user would bend the water in their opponents blood itself to control their body against their will.
That was what he was reminded of as Azula magmatized herself to rush at Toph, before Toph began bending Azula's magma itself.
"W-what are you doing?!" Azula demanded as her body began to move against her will, and Toph smirked victoriously.
"Kinda dumb of you to fight me when your whole body is bendable 'princess'!" Toph sneered at her, before sending Azula flying away so that would land in the ocean below. Thankfully for her, Alex casually opened a Gate before Azula could fall into the water, transporting her to her room to rest after being beaten by Toph.
"And the Blind Bandit remains undefeated!" Toph declared victoriously, throwing her hands up in the air as she did so like a professional wrestler.
So, Alex naturally responded by creating a magic circle in the air above Toph, which then poured literal freezing water down onto her from above.
"And THAT is why you should never let your guard down." Alex stated while patting Mavis' thigh, prompting her to rise up off of his cock before smoothing out her dress nonchalantly.
"That was a cheap shot!" Toph stated indignantly while turning to 'look' right at Alex.
"Was not. I was making a point." Alex replied while walking up to Toph, casually ignoring the various stone spikes she tried to hit him with in retaliation.
"Outside the wrestling ring, there's no such thing as cheap shots. Especially when you're fighting a blind girl with an attitude."
"What are you getting at?" Toph asked warily, even as Mavis approached as well.
"Just that you can't cry foul just because you can't see an attack, and that a certain someone would be able to do something about it." Alex hinted to point her in the right direction of what he was referring to.
"You want to fix my eyes?"
"It'll certainly help you out in certain regards, and be more beneficial than it would be detrimental." Alex told her pointedly. And while he expected her to snap back that she didn't need her eyes, Toph surprisingly seemed to carefully consider what he had said.
"Alright, fine." She said, surprising him from how accepting she was of this.
"Really?"
"Well yeah, it's not like I don't know my own weaknesses!" Toph stated as if it were obvious. After all, even if her Seismic Sense allowed her to fight and do day-to-day things without issue, there were still some things she had problems with.
"Well alright then." Alex said, pleased that Toph was willing to accept his help. But then she did something else he hadn't expected, and proceeded to strip off her wet top.
"Any particular reason why you're stripping?" Alex asked her warily, even as Toph also dropped her soaking wet pants so she was, once again, completely nude.
"Yeah, so I can get my 'special medicine' from you, Boulder Balls. How else were you gonna 'treat' me?" Toph stated as if it were obvious.
"Haaa...." Alex sighed while the girls around him giggled in amusement from his predicament. After all, while Toph was on the younger side of what Alex considered acceptable, there was the fact that she was already being prepared for marriage before he abducted her.
"Alright then, but don't blame me if I break you." Alex said as he stepped towards her, putting him right in front of the earth bender.
"I'd like to see you try." Toph sneered challengingly.
And so, Alex did in fact break her.
...
The rest of the night passed within the villa as one would expect, with Alex alternating between spending time with his wives/lovers, spending time with his children, and doing a little bit of sparring with some of them to help them get stronger.
In his own case though, Alex found he was hitting a lull in his own progress.
True enough that Alex had grown significantly in strength recently, due to eating the souls of various gods to gain their respective divinities, but the progress he had made in his own training had practically slowed to a halt.
It didn't help that the majority of Alex's actual training mostly consisted of meditation and him trying to fully master the divinities he had acquired.
"I need a rival..." Alex muttered to himself as he laid on his back in the middle of a picturesque meadow, while a certain former Daedric Prince bobbed her head up and down in his lap.
In the name of mastering his divinities, Alex had decided to start with the ones he first obtained from the Daedric Princes back in Highschool of the Dead. Which was why he was currently in the Plane of Oblivion that had been under Meridia's control, the Colored Rooms.
Though called such, this realm was not composed of a series of rooms like how the Myriad Realms of Revelry were composed of hundreds of mini pocket dimensions. Instead, innumerable floating islands filled the cosmic space around them that shimmered in a myriad of colors.
And inhabiting these floating islands were several specimens of every single living creature from Tamriel, including some sapient creatures as well.
Obviously, Alex had come here to increase his understanding of the divine power over life, which led to him meditating in the middle of the Colored Rooms with Meridia. This led to her sucking Alex off while he was meditating, until he had given up and sprawled out on the grass he had been sitting on.
The problem Alex was struggling with was that breakthroughs were significantly easier for him when he was in combat, and not through meditation. He was a Saiyan AND a dragon after all.
And an even worse problem was the significant lack of proper opponents that could force him to actually grow stronger quickly.
Vali was a no-go since Alex had long since outpaced him in terms of strength, not to say that Vali was weak. Goku and Vegeta were also no good since they were still too weak to be proper rivals for him, though Alex hoped that would change after a few more months of them training under Whis and Beerus.
If Alex wanted a proper rival, then it would need to be someone who outclassed even all of them. Someone who normal logic didn't apply to. Someone...
"!!!"
Alex bolted upright as he suddenly recalled somebody who fit that exact description! Someone he already had fairly easy access to through the Chatroom!
"Did something happen master?" Meridia asked as she took her mouth off of his cock, her gaze one of pure adulation and worship.
"I think I have someone in mind to be a real rival for me." Alex told her, his tone filled with excitement.
"That's wonderful~!' Meridia said as she crawled into Alex's lap, and started peppering his chest and neck with kisses before lowering her Daedric pussy down onto his cock.
Alex's body moved on its own as he began to fuck the former Daedric Prince, while his mind was occupied with thoughts of a certain psychic, and the baldy that could be found in her world.
(A.N. I know, it's been a while and this chapter is really short compared to usual. But recently I've been too tired mentally to write GSS, on top of just being burned out on it and experiencing writers block. I had to restart this chapter three times before I finally managed to finish it.
For those of you worried that GSS is getting dropped, don't be. I fully plan to finish this series even if it takes me a while due to writers block and stuff. So here's hoping the next chapter doesn't take me as long to write, and thank you for the understanding.)
