Battle Harem of the Heavenly Sword

Chapter 247 Summoning The Watchdog Of Overternia 4

'Nessa, you saw Hiro's skills. Everything from his stats, skill combos, and limits to his passives. They were all extraordinary. Even with our special skills that come from being part of the savior royalty, we will not be able to keep up.'

At Jade's clear announcement, the three women felt disheartened. All of Hiro's women knew, your stats can only carry one so far. The higher you go, the greater variability there is to combat. Each Savior family naturally had its own skills or combat doctrines for their bloodline to mitigate this.

While they weren't able to learn everything, the things they did acquire easily gave them boosts to leapfrog over the common people. The only reason, the Mitsurugi Empresses could not leverage their gifts prior stemmed from their disabilities.

Yet, with her high intellect, the princess of Graceyeanor wanted to be wrong. But no matter how she checked, the truth never changed. Thus Jei who calmly analyzed the power growth of her husband said with complete certainty.

'Even if we gained high stats until we learn and gain the legacies of our families… We have nothing to offer husband.'

The sadness and bitterness in Jade's voice could not be hidden from her sisters. Raylene. who understood nodded. 'Indeed, once Hiro again starts to build up power without better limit skills, actives, or passives we will get left behind.'

The Savior families had thousands of years of history behind them. The secondary skill [Dance of Valor and Glory], as well as the Bravery combat doctrine, were just two of the legacies of the Valorious family. The Dominii and the Gracyeanor naturally had something similar yet those would never be enough.

Nessa and her sisters had neither the time nor the instructors to guide them. Hiro on the other hand forged new paths by himself. But placing his life and comfort as payment he grew at an astounding pace. Jade who learned of such a truth shared this truth with the women of Mitsurugi.

'Nessa, Lene, husband's power comes from desperation. He is desperate enough to turn anything and everything into a weapon. We cannot protect him if we do not acquire the same mindset.'

Jade then took the other women's hands into her own and faced Hiro. "Husband. Leave. I wish to speak with Raylene and Vanessa." A bit surprised, the Mitsurugi dominator knew his wives well. For the pink-haired empress, she normally called her sisters by nicknames or pet names.

The only times she used their full names arose when she became emotional. And the feeling coming from the link from Jade's was enveloped with fear. A deep crippling terror that paralyzed one into inaction. While his heart wanted to comfort his woman, the butcher knew approaching now would be ill-advised.

Hiro promptly gave his women a quick hug and kissed them on the cheek and left. When the room only had the three empresses. Jade started to weep as her body quivered uncontrollably.

"Husband loves us a lot. This we know. He wishes to grant us strength with the least danger possible. The plan he has for us is to be kept in his palm. Safe and sound. If we follow, we can give him comfort when he is tired and weary, but nothing further. You understand right?"

At Jade's emotional words, both women nodded and started to share their thoughts.

"Darling has little to no value for himself. He is willing to die if it means he can protect Tsugumi and us. As we agreed, being enslaved to him should force him to treasure himself as we will die if he is not careful. But that is just like removing water from a sinking ship, it does not solve the underlying cause."

"The problem is Hiro-sama has a twisted sense of value. He is perfectly fine letting the world die if our family can survive. This may sound good but that is a lonely way to live. I feel that we should be the ones to keep him tied to the world. Everyone dies, he can not die just because we did. I do not wish to see him needlessly suffer."

"Yes, that is why we need to grow stronger for husband. We must gain the power to stand beside him. And the only way I could think of is the Vaginarnis ritual. It needs three people from the Savior bloodlines. It must be kismet for you two to belong to the Dominii and Valorious families because now we have a chance."

Jei then let go of their hands and got into a kneeling position in front of her sisters. "Raylene, Vanessa, I know I am selfish but I have no one else to ask. Please help me. I sometimes see futures of Hiro's death. The common theme is that I lacked the power to protect him."

She then bowed her head to the floor in a dogeza. "I…I cannot lose Hiroyuki again… I cannot…I will not… The [Creator] allowed us to regain our bodies. We are strong enough to attempt to become Vaginarnis. Being Vaginarnis candidates you both know of what is to come. But I feel it in my soul. I was born for him. I am willing to risk it all."

The woman then started sobbing uncontrollably. "The Vaginarnis are required to give up their humanity for power. Choosing this means accepting losing the ability to bear children. We will lose the ability to create a family with Hiroyuki.

"Even if I already decided, it is unfair of me to ask the same of you two. But please consider it, I know I am asking for a lot. Yet when I weigh Hiroyuki's life, even bearing his children is not as important as he is to me."

The pitiful image of Jade touched the hearts of her sisters, they threw themselves at her and similarly wept. Vanessa sobbed as she spoke. "Sister, what are you saying? I am of one mind. I also don't care about bearing children. If protecting Hiro-sama and you two requires me to be a Vaginarnis, then I am willing. You don't have to beg, I will join you. In fact, you cannot stop me from doing so."

Raylene then kissed Jade on the forehead as tears flowed down her face. "Sister, we have not lost the ability to create a family. We already are one. As the Mitsurugi family, we will share our pain, burdens, and sorrow. I of course agree.

"To protect the man we love even dying is a price I am willing to pay, what's losing the ability to bear children compared to that? Besides we already have Tsugumi and the dragonkin, we already have two daughters to raise, don't we? That is enough."

Jade cried in joy and gratefulness at the women who became her sisters. The helplessness of watching her husband die in her visions weighed heavily on her. She tried to keep it by herself but like a jar close to the brim, she needed to let it out lest she gets consumed.

After opening their hearts to one another, the three consoled each other. Hiro who tried not to eavesdrop felt the heart-wrenching sorrow from his domination link which caused him to listen in. After his women were united in one purpose he felt the bliss and contentment his wives had for each other.

'I am so glad the three of them love each other like sisters. To see them comfort each other like this makes me sure that they will still take care of their sisters even if I suddenly died. Not that I any intension to do so.'

Extremely thankful his wives had each other, Hiro stopped listening in and moved to leave the Arcus Kiss building. As He walked downstairs as he send a message to Allan and Xing's brands 'Tell Dylan, I will meet him now. I have something to ask him.'
