My Yandere Wives are Transcendents

Chapter 217: Begone, You Mongerls!!

Pitch-Black Void

If Eli were to explain his current situation then Pitch-Black Void was the correct word.

Eli found himself swallowed by an endless abyss of darkness. The haunting emptiness felt suffocating, and annoyance crept over him. He clicked his tongue in frustration, memories of his first encounter with Lilith flooding his mind.

"aarrhh, not again" Eli muttered, expecting the appearance of a strange and weird voice that would guide him out, just like before.

[You know, you shouldn't think like that after coming here a second time... I am not a weird voice and... I won't let you go like that before. You have to pay the price for coming here.]

"Oh, you speak like a normal being?" Eli raised an incredulous eyebrow, surprised by the sudden shift from mechanical tones to fluent speech

[...]

"Well, whatever. I am bored here. Let me go" Eli stated with a stern seriousness.

"....Then what should I do?" Eli inquired, frustration brewing, 'Seriously, Lilith, you throw me into another strange situation...'

[....You shall atone for acquiring knowledge meant not for mortal ears--]

"W-Wait!! I didn't even hear what the hell she was going to say? All I heard was some 'Guardians of the___________' That's all!!!" Eli's frustration peaked, making it clear he had no clue about Lilith's impending revelation.

[...That child told, and you, who are not deemed worthy of such revelations--]

"Yeah, yeah, right. Not worthy, unworthy, mortal, soulless... go on. I am ready to hear that same 'recorded tape'" Eli retorted with evident annoyance, waving his hand dismissively.

[...You are being insolent....Human]

The voice shifted to fury, and the once-still void now trembled like an earthquake.

Eli felt his legs transforming into shadows, mirroring the obsidian surroundings

[This realm is not void, Mortal...]

Eli, fixated on his changing legs, snapped at the revelation.

[This realm is filled by beings like you, who have been reduced to nothingness...]

A sense of impending danger surged through Eli, urging him to flee from this enigmatic entity.

"arrrhhh"

His attempts to move felt futile as if his very essence was entwined with the surroundings, leaving him with no escape.

'What should I do?' Eli contemplated his limited options. Mana Breathwork seemed impractical in this realm, given his real body resided elsewhere.

'Well, let's give it a try'

Mana Breathing

'Deep inh--'

"cough, cough, cough"

Eli coughed.

[Nothing transpires in my domain...Human]

Glaring defiantly, Eli attempted to assert his presence. The void responded with an intimidating silence.

It was then he heard something both haunting and familiar.

"Call...My Name..Asher.....Eli"

Eli calmed down a bit before,

"ANASTASIA!!"

The resonating words echoed through the void.

[....]

'Crack, Crack'

The space around Eli fractured as if a colossal force appeared behind him.

"RRROOOAAARRRRR!!"

Seeing her distress,

"Calm down, Lilith. I am not doubting you; I just want to know more..." Eli reassured her, embracing Lilith.

Feeling the warmth of his embrace, Lilith calmed a bit and softly admitted, "I am one of the Sentinels--'Hmm'"

Adriana was about to intervene to stop Lilith's spouting anymore, however, Lilith was suddenly kissed by Eli. After a moment, he asked,

"Scylla, when will I be worthy?"

"...Once you mastered all the Arts" Scylla replied sternly.

"Hmmm...as for others?" Eli inquired, noticing Mia and Zera, who seemed oblivious to most of the discussion.

"They must attain the Early Monarch Realm or above" Scylla stated, glancing at both Mia and Zera.

"I see...Call Kitty"

"Yes, Master"

Eli gently patted Lilith's trembling body before turning his attention to the messy table.

Taking some pieces and dried blood, Eli then looked at Mia, who swiftly understood.

/Disintegrate/

Every remaining object turned to ash and vanished, leaving the table neat and clear.

"Adriana, I want you to examine every aspect of this flesh, compare it with Lilith, and if possible, try to separate the Dark Mana" Eli instructed Adriana more as a command than a request.

Adriana glanced at Lilith, who met her husband's gaze with a pensive look.

"D-Darlin--"

"Lilith Dear, I am just investigating something. There's nothing to worry about" Eli interrupted her softly.

"Adriana, if don't want to the-"

"I will provide you with the information within two to three days" Adriana responded, realizing Eli's seriousness.

"..." Lilith bit her lip, attempting to persuade Eli,

"D-Darling, you don't need to do that, I-I will take care--"

"Lilith"

A stern voice made her flinch.

"Adriana"

"Y-Yes"

"I am unworthy to know everything, but I am worthy enough to know about my loved ones...."

"Do.You.Understand?"

"...Yes, Eli"

"....Yes, Darling"

""...."" In an instant, Eli silenced both women like a scolding parent.

[I told you to stop!!! Why did you tell him!!! and now he is fucking serious about everything and he will surely contact those sentinels!! Fuck!! and what about the same signature mana thing...?]

Lilith heard a mental voice and replied with shaky eyes.

[....I don't know...I-I can protect-]

[Yes, You can protect him....just like you how you protected your 'friend'? Did you really forget about the ancient artifact that sealed you for nearly 100 years and how that Luifcer bastard took your friend from you.....and what's more we couldn't even find what kind of artifact it was]

[....] Lilith's expression turned grim.

[If push comes to shove, I will take him away from everyone and erase his memory]

Lilith suddenly glared at Adriana with a murderous look.

Both Mia and Zera flinched for a second while Eli observed every reaction from Lilith and Adriana.

"Master~Nya~"
