End Of The War

With the previous achievements in the war, Heian Ciemnosc left a good trace to follow, giving birth to the Wrath Nihility Academy's 'special forces' teams coming to light left and right during the war. They didn't have a Heian Ciemnosc or a Violet to lead them, but they were still good, learning, and capable team leaders behind each of them. Every time one of them was raised and was finally seen as such in the Academy's eyes, they would go to the Concealed Ornament Team and be beaten to a pulp, becoming paralyzed for a few to several days. The worst had it immobilized for a few weeks.

It became somewhat of a tradition, and the CO Team had a little extra job to evaluate the subsequent ‘special forces’ but weren’t obliged to help or advise them, much less integrate them into the Team. Those who wished to merge or work together had to first take out 10 Fighters before Violet started really testing them one by one. If just one of them failed, the assessment to cooperate would be over. Nobody ever passed through the first condition anyway.

Not everyone could be beaten down, however. Violet would chase away most teams coming towards the Concealed Ornament Team. Only a few weren’t chased away and paralyzed for days. Thus, each time there was a new ‘special force’ in the Academy’s First Step army, the Wrath Nihility Academy would reward the CO Team with merit points and unlimited Inferior Powerful Stones. Although they were close to the First Step peak and could use a Supreme grade Powerful Stone to break through stages.

Such things were already known by everyone, especially after knowing who this team belonged to. Of course, since hearing about the devastating injury this team’s leader suffered when the Academy attained victory, nobody actually wondered why Heian Ciemnosc wasn’t on the battlefield. Even if he was recuperating well and it had been almost a year, such injuries would give any cultivator sequelae. It was commendable, however, that an Ashes Soul realm cultivator could take on a Spirit Rebirth realm cultivator’s all-out blow, even if the latter was at the 1st stage.

Thus, in the second year of the war, as the Wrath Nihility Academy’s expansion was nothing that its enemy thought it would be like, months passed when the news of the Concealed Ornament Team returning to the Academy’s territory reached the armies. The students and teachers and the like were astounded. But, after a thought, they realized it was just to be expected. After all, the war was ending, at last, with the Academy’s crushing speed of taking territory and integrating it into their side efficiently. It was like this: whenever they entered another City, its people welcomed them like godly beings and nature.

Thus, with the war ‘soon’ ending, the Concealed Ornament Team’s farewell to the battlefields didn’t decrease any morale, spirit, or support for the war. The war continued as they returned. Their Fighters took place in a transporting ship, and they were sent back to the Academy by the army they had been in since the beginning, with Violet already sub-commander and commanding over 10,000 student troops.

However, as they were waved from the ground by the other armies who knew which people were in that transporting ship returning home, it was all gone. However, neither Violet nor the rest of the team felt unwilling. They had been at war for more than a year. It wouldn’t have been this much as a cultivator, but they were only in the First Step and weren’t expecting to fight this long in order to keep the morale up. They were anxious to return home and scold their team leader for abandoning them.

… 3 months passed since Heian Ciemnosc broke into the Spirit Formation realm, the last step before achieving the peak of the First Step’s realms. At this time, he only came out once, a month after he broke through to visit Elena and spend time with her. He also spent a couple days meeting with Arla, melting her brains out with Frank, forming a bro’s bond with his kinkiness and permission and even began to get known by the other club leaders.

Because the test this year was so long, the Leading Student ceremonies couldn’t be held. Thus, they would be taking place at the end of next year’s test, where the Academy was more than ready and prepared to welcome even 100 million enrolling students per side. This time, even if they had to accept a few tens of millions of new students, they wouldn’t embarrass themselves with so much time wasted.

Of course, for every other organization, and with the high-end requirements to even be allowed to take the test. The Wrath Nihility Academy was doing incredibly well. In the eyes of the Academy, however, they were slow, dim-witted, and needed a spanking, so to say. Other organizations only test one’s potential and current cultivation base according to one’s natural age and Elemental affinity, comprehension, and Spirit Sense capabilities.

After giving Arla the time of her life with her body quivering nonstop for hours, Heian Ciemnosc returned to his Master’s abode and side, diligently cultivating every day for 24 hours nonstop. Milyy didn’t show signs of breaking through anytime soon, so Heian Ciemnosc didn’t worry about anything. Occasionally, he would come out once every week to meet with Elena. Even if they were training like mad, brainless savages, they still longed to see each other.

Time passed, and as he cultivated, he finally received a heated-up from his medallion, telling him his Concealed Ornament Team was finally arriving home. He continued cultivating until the day the Concealed Ornament Team was close to the Academy’s territory. His Master gave him a 2-day break to meet up with his COs and the rest of the team. Because there was a focus on creating more arsenal, the portals in each City were still few, and only those within the Academy’s Region were active.

… Heian Ciemnosc brought Jing Evan along to the hangar where the returning transporting ships would land. Millions of students were already there, cheering and jumping as they prepared to receive their war heroes. Even more so, the enigmatic, incredibly well-acclaimed, and idolized Concealed Ornament Team. Only a few noticed a white, rapid, and swift blurred figure passing through the streets but flying.

Whoooooshhh~~~... One of the transporting ships descending attracted more attention than any other. It didn’t have a sign spelling ‘ here are the CO Team!’ but with one’s medallion, one could know which model it was and its battling record it gained during the 2 wars. It was a long history, and it was the one the Concealed Ornament Team was returning within. Heian Ciemnosc didn’t need to use his medallion. All he needed was his Spirit Sense enveloping the transporting ship, and he would know.

Of course, even without that, he could still recognize the transporting ship that flew him around the Endless Desert Division and in the initial war’s last battle. As soon as he saw it, he made Evans fly at a vehicle’s level on the streets towards its landing zone. As everyone was cheering and excited to receive the vessels, Heian Ciemnosc suddenly appeared within the crowd, eliciting cries of surprised excitement and wanting to have his babies then and there.

Psshuuuf~, vrrrruuu- thud. As Heian Ciemnosc ignored those cries and begging for mating with him, the transporting ship’s main hangar started opening. When it fully did, and a rampart descended, those returning soldier units watched as hundreds of thousands of pairs of eyes looked at them with insanely shining eyes. The rest were set on a single person waiting before the rampart.

“Hope on,” without wasting time and only showing them a little smile, Heian Ciemnosc turned around and mounted Evans, who seemed more graceful and serious than ever. However, when his eyes landed on the familiar group, he became excited, his wings fluttering a little before the COs and the team hopped onto his back. Under the cheers of the crowd below and the startled gazes of the other returning soldier units from the same transporting ships, they left the area by flying through the streets.

Meanwhile, some of those cheers… “Woooooooooohooo! I saw his face, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, he was my examiner this year!!” - “I once smelled his natural scent. It made me mad and left me wanting to tackle him with my waist! But Miss Elena was there…” - “He made my girlfriend faint with his looks!” - “Oh my gosh! I loooove him! He made my younger brother turn…”

… By the time things started getting heated up, Heian Ciemnosc and his team were back in a city’s tavern. It was evening, and the sun was coming down. So, as they entered the place and the civilians around weren’t many, they first entered without making much of a commotion this time. Heian Ciemnosc didn’t say anything on their way here to this peaceful environment where, although not alone, they could converse at ease without many eyes set on their backs or sides.

The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.

“Well, how was it?” Heian Ciemnosc asked as he turned around after asking for several large tables. The tavern’s owner had to call a few pals to bring more tables, so it would take a while for 90 people to fit in. Valeria was the first to act and speak, as she gave him a wide smile with closed lips and pausedly stepped towards him. When he was at her arm’s reach, she smoothly floated towards him and hugged his neck, burying her nose on his left shoulder.

“We’ve missed you,” Valeria said. Heian Ciemnosc’s eyes widened as he looked at everyone else’s faces in front of him. They had warmth and the sensation of being where they belonged. After so many months out there, fighting it out and living the war they asked to live in, they were glad to have finally returned. Without saying any word, Heian Ciemnosc lifted his hands to hug this little Vice team leader’s back, which slightly trembled with his touch.

“You asked for it, don’t blame me. Blame your blockheads instead,” Heian Ciemnosc said whisperingly but not hiding his words from the other team members as he patted his subordinate’s back. She let go of him, but before he knew it, many manly-smelling bros and the like suddenly lunged at him to group-hug him as if this would be the only time they could do this. Esteban spoke a few seconds later as the situation became awkward, and the hug was slowly released.

“We didn’t actually want to, but Victor would’ve hugged you sooner or later.” As soon as his words ended, Oleg added with an emotionless tone. “Yeah, although he sometimes seemed about to betray the team when he thought we didn’t notice he was having too many ‘important talks’ with Cari in every City we conquered. If it wasn’t because of Violet’s chats with him when he was slightly distracted in our team’s meetings.”

“Hey! G-g- guys?!” Victor suddenly shouted, feeling betrayed as he looked at his teammates. As Esteban spoke to him disdainfully, it was Fengli’s turn to come and hug him. She smoothly embraced his shoulders after looking at his face with smiling eyes. Although the seriousness was still there, she was maturing rapidly into what Heian Ciemnosc only saw in at least Teachers.

“You really think we wouldn’t know? Sure, we didn’t know you were banging our previous second-in-command. But, to think you’d be so reckless about it and let it trouble you that even our Vice team leader had to step up to spank ye bottom, tsk tsk!” But then, Heian Ciemnosc spoke as he embraced Fengli’s upper back in exchange.

“Oh? You only noticed months after they began?” - “!!” The crowd looked at him, startled at the possible revelation. Even Fengli looked at him face to face with a stunned expression. Heian Ciemnosc grinned and let go of Fengli as a little, grown-up Gloria walked up to him and hugged his waist. “Remember when this idiot got severely injured? And then repeatedly before the last battle ended? Well, why do you think the medics called him over to check? Because he was from the Concealed Ornament Team? It wasn’t that known back then.”

“...!!!” Suddenly, the CO Team felt like they were little kids in front of Heian Ciemnosc, who was patting Gloria’s head with his right hand and hugging her with his left arm. She was like a kitten as she accepted the godfather’s caress. Aleksander looked on with warmth as if he was watching Gloria grow up. Just as he let go of Gloria, Victor finally spoke with an embarrassed expression. “That’s not fair! Team leader, you were also wanton during the war. Sakura only managed to persist without you with many innocent young girls to take advantage of!”

“Hey, I wanted to tell him that myself~.” - “Bwaahaha!” - “Oh my- hahaha!” - “Are you- haha heh- serious? Kukuh…”

Victor’s self-defense was proven useless as Sakura, the young girl’s terror, and dream, who was always sternly serious and intense, pouted towards Heian Ciemnosc as if she had lost something precious. Heian Ciemnosc shook his head as the civilians around them became more calm. After seeing how lively they were and the Stones Heian Ciemnosc took out earlier to pay up with, they felt like these students weren’t that different from themselves.

“Heian Ciemnosc… Team leader,” Sakura finally spoke softly as the team calmed down. She stepped towards him sensually, like a cat about to catch her favorite prey: juicy and full of delicious nectar. Her black eyes narrowed and appeared irresistibly seductive, widening everyone’s eyes as she walked up to him and smoothly leaned her front body onto his. Her hands snaked their way from below his ribs to his upper back. Her face was in front of his as she remained silent.

“I think I missed you the most,” Sakura said. Her eyes grew so lusty and became filled with passion that Heian Ciemnosc felt the call for nature’s primitive reproduction begin below. She was already prepared to be inserted by his huge something anyway, from what he could smell and feel the tiny moisture from her lower garments with his senses. “I had to ‘harm’ so many innocent girls just to satiate my hunger. I learned how to be independent of your body, but… I don’t want to right now.”

“Oh, come here,” Heian Ciemnosc looked at her with a casual expression throughout the entire ordeal. When she finally said those words, Heian Ciemnosc broke his stance and grinned as he grabbed her waist, pushed her center harsher against his body, and invaded her mouth with his expertly twisting tongue and sucking lips on hers and her tongue. Their smacking, sucking, and intimate mouth-messing noises reverberated throughout the tavern as the team suddenly looked down, up, or adverted their eyes to the side.

They were really going at it. Sakura, who only shows any interest in the beauties in the army, is now besieged by Heian Ciemnosc’s mouth as they couldn’t help but identify her as a shy, obedient, and helpless little wife before her beastly husband. It wasn’t until Violet spoke out that they stopped. “Hey guys, we’re in public still. At least wait until we’re in a room so you can show us how naughty Sakura is.”

“...” Heian Ciemnosc stopped brain-melting the shit out of Sakura as she was all red, her golden pale blonde hair slightly disarrayed, and had a smile on her face. With a satisfactory nod, she walked away before sitting on a stool and entering meditation as if she had done nothing wrong or that would create a commotion. The team rapidly returned to normality, forgetting Heian Ciemnosc just ate one of their future Vice team leaders once the CO Team is expanded.

Before long, a dozen long tables were set outside the tavern, and the owner opened its doors and windows as the night was still long, and he would make a fortune thanks to these students. It usually happens in known restaurants and hotels. Now, it was the poor’s turn to get lucky. Thus, the owner wasn’t stingy enough to step out of the tavern to serve the food and barrels upon barrels of beer. For the whole night, the tavern’s owner was exhausted to the point he had to close for a few days.

For the rest of Heian Ciemnosc’s free days, he helped his COs cultivate through the last bits of their Spirit Formation realm, preparing them to break into the Spirit Rebirth realm at last. They wouldn’t need more than a few months to become First Step experts, gaining a reputation in the entire Blackotia Kingdom along their CO Team’s face. Naturally, Heian Ciemnosc also bedded Sakura so badly that she lost consciousness for hours after he was done with her. Of course, Heian Ciemnosc had to hurry back to his Master’s abode if he didn’t want to disappoint her.

His COs were understanding, and other than coming out 2 days every week to meet up with Sakura and satiate her need for him, Heian Ciemnosc was a secluded hermit cultivating without moving an inch for dozens and dozens of hours a week. Time passed quickly and without interruptions.

. . .

More months passed, filled with bitter cultivation and carnal involvement occasionally for Heian Ciemnosc. But, today, he was no longer cultivating, and his Master was… to say the least… content with his results, much like a parent whose child scored really high in all exams for a decade.

As he bid farewell to his Master and left the abode, Jing Evan took the initiative to bring him to the Academy’s territory center. Today was no longer the same year as a few weeks ago. Indeed, Heian Ciemnosc had now turned 18, no longer a bratty kid who would be flirting and being an idiot with his love interests, but one that directly put them on a bed, cushion, ground, or against the wall before consummating their passion for each other.

After all, to Evans, if his owner was a Leading Student, which was leagues away from a Student’s status, he would be treated better. Who knew, maybe the eggs still hatching under his obedient wives would be groomed to become the Academy’s powerhouses in the future! Thus, as Evan had designs of his own to help his family, a handsome young man with pale skin and closed eyes sat cross-legged on his back as they flew through the streets from portal to portal.

Heian Ciemnosc was no longer just a kid in appearance but also age since a couple weeks ago. However, that wasn’t something that was important for cultivators as even those below 14 had adventures and a mentality not even old civilians could have. But it did bring a sense of progress to him. After all, it had been almost 2 decades since he departed from his Mother’s bosom. Something like that can’t be forgotten by most cultivators. Let alone a monster such as him.

The most important thing that occurred after the Concealed Ornament Team returned, whose only bad side was that it meant Heian Ciemnosc wouldn’t be seen fighting in the war again, was the culmination of something that started a new Era… The war was over now!

It was difficult to believe it, there was still time before everything could be flawlessly incorporated, but the war had ended with the Wrath Nihility Academy’s victory!!!
