Champion Of Lust: Gods Conquer's Harem Paradise!

Chapter 159 The Shadowy Eyes!



The sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows across the academy grounds as Pyris made his final rounds before his impending departure.

The air felt thick with the coming night, the sky bathed in hues of purple and gold. His footsteps echoed softly, blending with the faint rustle of leaves, the murmur of distant students, and the quiet hum of the academy's day drawing to a close.

Power radiated subtly from Pyris, though it remained cloaked, hidden beneath his calm exterior. The Dragon Empire, and indeed the academy itself, would soon miss his presence.

First, he made his way to the academy's grand library, a towering structure filled with ancient knowledge. Inside, waiting amidst the endless rows of books, was Madeline, the enchanting librarian whose allure was matched only by her intelligence.

Their encounters had always been passionate, and today was no exception.

The tension between them simmered beneath the surface, and it wasn't long before the two found themselves caught in each other's arms, lost between the towering bookshelves. After an hour of intense closeness, the air around them seemed warmer, the scent of old parchment mingling with the lingering heat of their shared intimacy.

Pyris straightened his clothes, his fingers deftly brushing a stray lock of hair from Madeline's face as she lay sprawled across the large oak desk, a satisfied smile playing at the corners of her lips. She seemed completely at ease, her eyes half-lidded in the afterglow of their time together.

"Madeline," Pyris said softly, his voice low but filled with affection and a hint serious as he whispered in the elongated ears of the half-elf. "I won't be around for a while. I have... matters to attend to."

Madeline's violet eyes fluttered open, a haze of their intimate encounter still clouding her vision. "Where are you going?" she asked, her voice laced with curiosity and concern.

Pyris bent down, his lips brushing softly against her forehead. "You'll find out soon enough," he whispered, a small smile tugging at his lips. "But I hope you're ready to fully embrace what we have when I get back!"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

With that, he bid her goodbye, leaving the library with a lingering sense of bittersweet finality. Their relationship, always intense and fleeting, was a reminder of the sacrifices that came with their hidden affair she wasn't willing to announce for others to know just yet given his status.

His next stop was Arabella, his beautiful and dangerous teacher, whose fiery spirit had always drawn him in. Her playful attitude made their training sessions as exhilarating as they were challenging.

He found her in the training yard, bathed in the dim light of the setting sun. Her long hair, wild and untamed, swayed in the evening breeze as she practiced her combat forms, her sword moving with deadly precision ready to creave through anything.

"Late, as usual," Arabella teased, her back still turned to him. She spun around, her sword gleaming in the fading sunlight, her eyes sharp but playful.

"Some things never change," Pyris replied with a smirk, stepping into the training circle.

Their blades met with a resounding clash, and the air between them crackled with energy, this was the better way of greeting between them.

Every strike and parry was measured, each movement a dance of skill and tension. Arabella's sharp movements matched his perfectly, but beneath their playful exchange, there was something more—something unspoken that had been growing between them.

As the session drew to a close, Pyris saw his opening. With a sudden move, he stepped in close, catching Arabella off guard. His lips found hers, pressing firmly against them.

For a moment, Arabella froze, her body rigid with surprise. But then, slowly, she melted into the kiss, her lips softening as she kissed him back.

But just as Arabella began to fully respond, Pyris pulled away, his eyes lingering on hers for a heartbeat longer than usual.

"Goodbye, Arabella," he whispered, his voice filled with both finality and something deeper, something he could not yet name.

She stared at him, breathless and confused, her chest rising and falling as she struggled to regain her composure. "You keep me on the edge, Pyris," she murmured, a faint smile tugging at her lips despite the confusion in her eyes.

Pyris had stolen more than just a kiss—he was stealing a part of her heart slowly.

Without another word, Pyris turned and left the training yard, his mind already focused on the mission ahead. Arabella watched him go, her eyes narrowing slightly, wondering why he had been absent from the academy for so long and where he was heading next.

As always, Pyris left her with more questions than answers.

On his way out of the academy, Pyris passed the office of Selera Moonveil, the brilliant moon elf who oversaw much of the academy's operations. Through the window, he could see her, deep in concentration, her silver hair cascading over her shoulders as she meticulously combed through stacks of paperwork.

As if sensing his presence, Selera's eyes lifted from her work, their gazes locking through the glass. A moment passed between them then Pyris nodded, a silent farewell, and Selera responded with a faint, almost imperceptible nod before turning back to her work.

Evening arrived swiftly, and Pyris finally made his way back to his estate.

The vast grounds were quiet, the helipad illuminated by soft lights as Alexa and Aurelia stood waiting for him. Alexa, ever the fiery presence, smiled warmly as he approached, her eyes filled with a mixture of excitement and anticipation.

Aurelia, his sister and trusted ally, stood by with her arms crossed, her expression as unreadable as ever, but her eyes sparkled with a knowing glint.

"You're late," Aurelia teased, her voice carrying the same sarcastic edge Pyris had grown used to.

"But I'm right on time," Pyris countered, his lips curving into a familiar smirk. It was a game they played often, but beneath the teasing, there was a bond that ran deeper than words.

Mira, the enigmatic leader of the Phantom squad, was already seated in the pilot's chair of the helicopter, her hands firmly on the controls.

Mira's cold, stoic demeanor never ceased to unnerve those around her, but Pyris had long since become accustomed to her presence. She rarely spoke unless necessary, but her loyalty was unwavering.

"Everything's ready," Mira said, her voice flat, never turning around to address the others.

The women welcomed Pyris into the helicopter, their conversations light but laced with an undercurrent of tension. Each of them knew the stakes.

They were heading to the Midnight Dominion, specifically the war-torn and chaotic region of the Sunstone Empire. It was a place where laws held no meaning, where only the strongest survived, and where power was the only currency.

Pyris knew this would be a test unlike any they had faced before, but he trusted his team implicitly.

As the helicopter's blades began to whir to life, cutting through the evening air, Pyris cast one last look at his estate, his home, before stepping inside.

The journey ahead would be perilous, filled with unknowns, but Pyris felt the familiar rush of excitement, the anticipation of what was to come. With his most trusted companions by his side, they were ready.

Unbeknownst to them, however, a shadowy figure watched their departure from a distance. Someone had leaked Pyris's plans, and in the darkened halls of the vampire courts, Silas was already preparing his own counterplay.
