Act like a Fool, Shines like a Star!

Chapter 53: Changes.

After a week passed, The Bronze Serpent Project was continued. Now, Bronze Serpent have 7 Elites Member. As expected. Veronika become the Commander of the Bronze Serpent. There's 4 Swordsman and 3 Magicians.

Lavi train them for 5 days straight with the help of Nazuna and the Kuroyuki Family. And it went well. And with that, 7 Bronze Serpent against 300 Blue Gryphon train alongside each other. And the winner is Bronze Serpent.

As expected, Lavi personal Corps is the strongest in the Nation. And they're going to be the last line of defense instead of Lavi and the others.

With Lavi having Bronze Serpent, Nick doesn't need to give his Blue Gryphon Corps to Lavi anymore. Since Lavi already have his own.

And in order to strengthened the Army, Bronze Serpent and Blue Gryphon fuse with each other to train the normal Guards and Army. So they get something to do other than swing their weapons all day, get beaten by Lavi, Nazuna, Riri or Hazzi. They actually have purpose other than that.

And that's make Lavi pretty happy because he felt kind of bad because, He specifically make Bronze Serpent so that when something doesn't go as planned in Shireno, He can send them instead of him. Because by the Rule of Royalty, Royal Family shouldn't be too involved in that matter. Except when they really need to.

Anyway, What's Lavi been doing this past week other than train Bronze Serpent, Obviously spend all of his time with his Fiancees. They hold Group date everyday and have it every night for the past weeks because they are feeling it.

And after that Week, Things go back to normal Everyone train with each other, Do anything they like.

'I want some changes in the house. I don't necessarily want to make it too big. But I do want to make it bigger. I want 8 More rooms for our office. After all, We can't all work in the Attic.'

Lavi thought. And in order to achieve that. Lavi call some help. And that's Pixel. Today, He come with Luke, His boyfriend.

Lavi go to the basement with them both and requested Pixel to make 8 Identical Room. Not too big but not too small either. Lavi requested a 10x10 M box. So Pixel Delivered. There's their name in each door. Except 1 door whose name is yet to be revealed because, Lavi not find them yet.

"Thank you Pixel, Luke. Want to eat Lunch for a bit?"

Lavi asked them. Pixel and Luke nodded. So they go to the Dining room and Aoi give them some food. It's only them in the house while the Girls is with Hailey talking about her stomach and such.

"So Lavi. Where's Gwen or Bianca? We haven't seen them today."

Luke asked. Lavi look at them and said.

"They're with my Mom. You see, My Mom is pregnant. So, The girls want to talk to her about it. It's scared the crap out of me now that they do that."

Lavi said specifically. It confused both Pixel and Luke on why did Lavi get scared of that. Turns out There's a reason why Lavi is scared.

"Come on now. I don't really want to say this but, This past week... We've been doing it from night till morning. I always let it out inside them. I knew that it's safe because of Gwen and Althea Barrier... But seeing that they've been taking care of My Mom who's pregnant... Making me scared that, They're actually pregnant as well..."

Lavi said. Pixel and Luke nodded. Luke look at Pixel and nodded. Pixel use his Search and search Lavi Fiancees.

Pixel found the actual answer and look at Luke with quite shocked face. And then he nodded. Luke was surprised. It's a pleasant surprise for both of them. They look at Lavi who's really worried while munching down on his Ramen.

"Don't worry Lavi. I've checked it and it's not. So, You can calm down for now."

"Thanks Pixel."

Lavi said. He finish his ramen and Aoi clean his bowl. Luke and Pixel look at the clock and they realize the time.

"Oh well Lavi. We're going home now. I suggest you find the 8th one and immediately get married."

"Yeah. Thanks."

Lavi said. Both Pixel and Luke go out of the house and before they go out Luke look at Pixel.

"Why did you lie like that?"

"I mean, I don't want to make Lavi worried. Bianca is the only one. It seems like everyone else's is safe... So I think Lavi will be happy with his first child..."

Pixel said. Luke nodded.

"Well, Let's work hard to keep that a secret for now. And we might also want to keep an eyes at Bianca right?"

Luke asked. They were worried that because Lavi is always busy that he didn't have time to spend with His Fiancees. Now that Bianca is the only one conceiving Lavi child. It seems like the Girls had plan for Lavi to conceived all of them. But they're not in their cycle just yet. And Bianca is the only one so, Going at it for a week straight will bring them results.

Obviously Bianca know because she can feel a difference in her body instantly. So with that, Gwen and the others swore to protect Bianca and the one inside her.

And for Lavi. Now that Pixel told Lavi to search for his Last Wives. Lavi search for it. And Lavi have someone in mind that he want to be with him. But he doesn't know if the other one will agreed on that.

Even though Lavi have someone in his mind, He still want to make sure that he get the best woman he could. Since they need to in acceptance with the other wives.

'I want to take either Aoi or Zora. Preferably Aoi because I like her more than Zora... We bond together in the Island and we felt like we're bestfriend from the start. Though, Aoi does threatened me to attack my family which I made her pay for.'

Lavi thought.

Lavi was talking about the Tsunami Incident. It's unnecessary for Aoi to do that. But she suggested that they fight to the end. And the winner will become the master of the other one. Lavi was quite hesitant to take Aoi because first, It will make Zora Jealous. And Secondly, They're Master and Servant.

'But that doesn't matter though... Master and Servant is still normal. Anyway, I should try to ask her.'

Now that there's only Lavi and Aoi on the house. Lavi call her.

"Aoi. Can you come here for a second?"

Lavi call her. From the kitchen, A gorgeous Blue Lady with overall Blue Dress sat down in front of Lavi. The more Lavi look at her the more gorgeous she is. Lavi blushed and asked.

"Hey Aoi... Do you love me?"

Lavi asked. Aoi smiled calmly.

"Well Master. I love you. We're master and Servants! Both Zora and I love you as our master! Not only that, We love the Madams! We're very grateful that you took us in as your personal maid."

Aoi said. She was deciphering Lavi message wrong. She was thinking if Lavi ask her that because other stuff. And that surprise Lavi that Aoi didn't think immediately to love as a Man and Woman. She go to the Master and Servant.

Lavi sighed and said.

"If I marry Zora. Would you be mad?"

"Well... Not really. Master Choice is Master Choice after all... We're just the same Race. We're not sisters or friends. We're actually enemies! But since Master took us in, Our relationship become those of a sister. So, I will be really happy if Master marry My Sister."

Aoi said. Lavi read her Aura and she's still Pink as usual. Lavi determined that Aoi is pretty Serious. So Lavi stood up.

"Thanks Aoi! You really gave me confidence."

Lavi said. He left the house for a bit and it hurt Aoi.

'M-Master Marrying Zora..? N-No... I'm supposed to be happy for her... B-But... Why is my chest so hurting? I love Master... I love him... I want to be with him... No... I don't want him to leave me...'

Aoi feelings are in shambles. She want to call Lavi out and ask him to stay. But she can't do that. She's only Lavi personal Maid. Not his Fiancee. She doesn't have what it takes to call him out.

So she just sat there crying, Thinking that Lavi is going to ask Zora out. She's holding her hand on her chest trying to suppress the pain that coming from her chest.

She forced herself to smile and stand back up. She go to the kitchen and cook her comforting meal. Which is coincidentally a fish pie because it remind her of Lavi. But the more she eat it, The more it hurt.

Lavi walk out of the house after speaking with Aoi.

'I will choose Aoi... I'm really sorry Zora. I hope you're happy with your master making his own choice.'

Lavi go to the Castle Living room where the girls at.

"Welcome Lavi!"

Everyone said. Lavi waved at them and hug them one by one. Lavi immediately look at Zora with his Aura Read. She's actually Blue with slight Pink. Meaning that she's passive and she didn't really love Lavi. She loves Lavi as her Master. But not as a Man.

After all, Zora wants Lavi seed. She only want his baby because she just want baby. She just want the feeling of having a baby.

She's not like the other Fiancee or Aoi who Loves Lavi. She just respected him and affection toward him.

Lavi figures that out and he feels that the aura on the room is quite weird... Almost heavy like. Lavi is great under pressure. But this Pressure is different. It's almost like the room is expecting something from him.

Lavi didn't know what happening here. As Pixel said to Lavi before, Lavi already scratch the potential of pregnancy away. So he feel like they want him to do something for them. So he thought.

'Do they want me to leave for now? Okay! I will left them with Mom for a bit. After all, It's woman talk.'

Lavi thought calmly. He smiled to everyone and said.

"Well, I'm going back for now! See you guys Later!"

Lavi said. Everyone waved at him and Lavi go back. But then, Lavi call Gwen.

"Gwen. This is Lavi. I'm going to ask Aoi out as my 8th Fiancee. Is that okay?"

"Sure. Do it. It's going to make us feel better."

Gwen said to Lavi. Gwen told everyone that Lavi will take Aoi as his next Fiancee and it doesn't really shock Zora that much. Since the day where Lavi kill the Kraken. Zora knew how much Aoi loves Lavi. Her love is as deep as the ocean she rules. While Zora is not that high. So she's really happy that Aoi get one of her goal.

She definitely proud of Aoi despite being enemies with each other.

Lavi come back home and Aoi is eating fish pies with tears on her eyes. Lavi immediately sat down and asked.

"Aoi? What happened? Why are you crying?"

Lavi asked gently. Aoi look at Lavi and asked.

"So Master... How is the results?"

"Hm? What results?"

Lavi was quite confused. Aoi look at him and said.

"Didn't you say you're going to ask Zora out?"

"No? I never said that I will ask Zora out. I only said 'If.'"

Lavi put some more explanation to that and it confused Aoi a lot.

'Eh? So I've been crying for nothing but misunderstanding? But then, Why did he ask me that?'

Her thought become a real question. She ask Lavi that and Lavi said.

"You see... I just want to know what you're going to feel... I just want to see what's Zora going to feel if I did this."

Lavi said. Aoi still doesn't understand. But in Lavi next action. Everything makes sense for her now.

"Aoi. Will you be my Last Wife?"

Lavi asked nicely and gently. His voice are so gentle that it's soothing. Aoi couldn't believe what's being said to her. She cover her mouth with her hands and look at Lavi.

"M-Master... Are you serious?!"

"Yes... I'm Serious... Will you be my last?"

Aoi nodded. She take Lavi arm and then Lavi gently kiss her.

"Well then. I'm really happy you accepted me."

Lavi said. Aoi cries in tears of happiness and said.

"No Master... I'm really happy YOU Asking me out."

She said. Lavi pat her on the back as she hug him. And then. As the mood get more and more romantic. Lavi push Aoi closer to him. Her fragrant smell overwhelm Lavi nose.

Lavi kiss her once again and they're getting in the mood. Aoi push him to the couch and started to unbuttoned Lavi shirts. But then, As Aoi do that. Something urgent come.

Lamar knock the door in a hurry and call Lavi.

"Your Highness! Help! There's something bad coming to Shireno!"

Hearing that. Aoi and Lavi immediately stand up. Aoi was quite disappointed because she can't get the taste of Lavi. But Lavi promise her.

"Aoi, After I deal with this. We're going to continue okay? So just be ready."

Lavi said with a smile. Aoi smile as well and wave him off.

"Take care Master."

"Got it."

Lavi immediately button his shirt and go outside.

"Lamar. What's the problem?"

"Your highness... A Stampede of Behemoths was seen on the radar. Please come to Your Majesty right now!"

Lamar said with panic in his voice. Lavi nodded. They run to the Castle and Lavi meet with Nick on the Throne Room.

"Lavi. You come."

"Yes dad. I head that there's stampede of Behemoth. Is that correct?"

"Yes."

Nick said. The Tension between the soldier is quite high. There's going to be another 3 hours before the Stampede reach the Outer Wall. They didn't really have to worried about the wall because it's really tall an almost unbreakable.

In the Throne room, There's Elite Guard which is on the side protecting Nick. And there's Blue Gryphon and Bronze Serpent.

"Alright. Blue Gryphon and Bronze Serpent. Let's go to the Battlefield. It's the perfect time for you to give me some beautiful sight of your techniques!"

Lavi said. Everyone kneeled and said.

"Yes Sir!"

Lavi take his sword out. Everyone go to the barracks and wear their armor and bring their banner.

With Lavi on the very front, Gabriel and Veronika right behind Lavi. And the rest of the troops holding their banners.

Everyone on the road hear the warning from the tower and they immediately prepare the road for Lavi and the whole troops to walk through.

For them, This is not a common occurrence. So they wave them off and wish them good luck. With White Mithril as their Armor and Weapon. They were confidence that nothing could go wrong.

There's a bunch of Anti Venom that the Medic Brought in case someone did get bite by Snow Snakes.

Everyone have at least one of it on their pocket so that when Snow Snakes bite them, The Anti Venom can be drank instantly.

And also. Lavi have some great plan for this one. They reach the Outer wall with 10 Minutes of the Stampede left.

In 10 Minutes. 100 Behemoths will arrive to the Shireno. They're going to make contract at that point in time.

With Armor and Pain Resistor Max on. Everyone isn't scared on getting hurt or even dying. Lavi didn't want anyone to die so he will be watching over everyone. If something started to get out of hand. Lavi will help them.

Since the most Satisfying way of winning is by sweeping the stampede. With no one dead or injured.

"Your Highness. We have received information from the Tower that there's 10 Snow Snakes, 30 Snow Leopards, 30 Tundra Wolves, And 30 Yetis. All Behemoth, Your Highness."

Veronika said. Lavi nodded. He turn around and said.

"You lot! Fight to your heart content! Show me what Shireno can do! And one more thing! DON'T DIE!"

Lavi said. Everyone raise their weapon and screamed. Usually, In situation like this, Bunch of selfish motherfuckers sacrifice others for their survival. But not for Shireno. Their bond is pretty much a family like. No one want to sacrifice their family. Only Sickos would do that.

They would either fight together and win together. Or Die together with pride. Or retreat together if Lavi told them to. Doesn't matter really.

"Magicians! Use Hollowed Ground!"

Lavi said. 30 Elites Magicians started chanting the spells Hollowed Ground. The ground started to become a muddy consistency. Making the Behemoths harder to walk. Lavi look at the Archer.

"Archer! Snipes!"

Bunch of Archers from Blue Gryphon Started spewing out arrows toward them. Enhanced with the Wind Magic the Magicians gives, The arrow become faster. What they were aiming is the eyes.

The Arrow moves in an incredible speed and it curves depending on where the eyes are. The Archer keep shooting arrows until the monster was covered in their blood.

Usually, In a time like this, They don't really want to break the Hide of the scales too much. But with Restoration Magic, Anything is possible so, They were free to hit where ever they want.

And after 30 Minutes of pure arrows. The Magicians stopped from Magic Exhaustion and the Archer stop because of there's no more Arrow left.

Lavi stand tall with his Silver Annihilation out. Though it's dark, Everyone can see well because of Night Vision in their armor.

Lavi have really improved the strength of Shireno Troops. No more weakness of the dark. Lavi pull his sword up.

"Charge!"

Lavi screamed. Everyone nodded and they follow behind Lavi. Everyone was making a small wing formation with Lavi on the very front.

And everyone popped off. The Tower who can see the fight was amazed by the strength of the Troops.

They get attack here and there. But they always managed to survive. And the Healer who is protected by the Magicians and Archer. Heal everyone who get scratched.

With 30 Minutes of Pure Battle, Everyone finish with Lavi killing most of it. Once again. Lavi was seen with blood all over his body. Lavi put all the Behemoths in the Storage Magic. No one died fortunately. But a lot of them lost something on their body Like arm or leg. But they have no problem.

Because the new Hospital that Gwen help make. Actually can restore their severed limbs. Everyone help each other move back to the wall. They open the gate and everyone was welcoming them again.

They were clapping and throwing some flowers to them. It's cold so, The blood already frozen at that point. Once again, The whole City get to see the Bloody Shireno in action.
