Suppressing his emotions, Zhuang Sen began processing the ingredients. However, the square table in front of the large pot was only so big, and he and Lady Liya were side by side, so their movements inevitably involved some friction and contact. In addition, Lady Liya was dressed rather lightly today, exposing most of her arms. Zhuang Sen frequently pressed his face against her fragrant and mature body, and some romantic thoughts inevitably stirred in his mind. However, Lady Liya remained serious, as if she had no thoughts at all, making Zhuang Sen unsure of what Lady Liya was thinking. Was this just normal mother-son contact, or an implication?
Logically speaking, he's a seasoned veteran of many battles and shouldn't be acting like a virgin. The problem is, he has wicked thoughts in his mind. If he were to replace Lady Lydia with another woman he's not interested in, he wouldn't even bother to touch her hand or waist; he'd just admire her naked and then go find Lydia to relieve his lust.
Phew, focus.
Zhuang Sen quickly processed the materials under his command, trying to ignore the soft touches that kept coming from his hands and waist. Seeing this, Lady Liya also stopped deliberately making contact, mainly because if it continued, she might not be able to resist. Although she remained calm on the surface, her pubic hair was already covered with frost.
However, even without physical contact, Lady Leah's gaze remained fixed on Johnson. The more she looked, the more she felt that Dantalian was right last night: kinship, love, faith, or anything else didn't matter; what mattered was the person. She didn't need to distinguish her feelings for Johnson at all, because Johnson was Johnson, and Johnson Leon was Johnson Leon. From the very beginning, she had clearly known and distinguished between them.
Johnson Leon is her son, so why can't Johnson be? Close has so many children, but he doesn't treat them all the same, or treat one as a substitute for another. She's the same; her love for Johnson Leon is pure maternal love, and it's a very strict kind, because Johnson Leon is simply not as good as Johnson—lacking talent and intelligence. She loves this child, but she doesn't idolize, appreciate, or have expectations for him.
But Zhuang Sen was different. Zhuang Sen's strength, wisdom, and character attracted her, and she was also very clear that this was not her bloodline child, which is why she developed other strange feelings for this child.
It can be said that Johnson was a man who completely surpassed Johnson Leon, and also a son who completely surpassed Johnson Leon, capturing her heart in both aspects—which is probably why she was so conflicted earlier.
However, thanks to Dantalian's reminder, and thanks to all the experiences she's had over this period... perhaps even thanks to the people of the Church of War, she finally understood that her inner turmoil was just a form of self-destruction.
Once we take down that good-for-nothing Klose, we'll give this kid a surprise!

Chapter 114: The Third Awakening and the Dwarf Girl's Legacy
three days later.
Two kinds of magic potions are freshly made.
Nia and Dantalian, who had been notified in advance, along with several other monster girls who hadn't been notified but couldn't wait to see Zhuang Sen, all came to the alchemy room. They watched as Zhuang Sen handed over the white-gold and white-red potions to Dantalian and Nia, respectively.
"Drink up, this is the fate of monster girls~"
Knowing that both of his wives knew the secret of the potion's main ingredient, Zhuang Sen couldn't help but make a joke.
However, Nia and Dantalian, who were already used to drinking it, did not hesitate at all and directly pulled out the cork and drank it down.
After the torrent of energy, Nia was fine, seemingly unchanged, but Dantalian reverted to her Lamia form, and her size increased slightly again. Now, counting from the tip of her snake tail, she was thirteen meters long. Enough to wrap around Zhuang Sen in his [Secretary Angel] form thirteen times from head to toe, and still have more to spare.
The system also sent a message in a timely manner.
[The dwarf girl's bloodline has been developed to the intermediate level, and she has obtained a random dwarf bloodline [Grey Dwarf] *1]
The dwarf girl's bloodline has matured. After developing the bloodline to 100%, she can consume items to evolve into other bloodlines.
[The dwarf girl's bloodline has matured, and her core abilities have been identified. These core abilities are permanently retained and can still be used after switching bloodlines.]
Zhuang Sen keenly noticed a problem. The system notification he received when his rankless angel bloodline awakened for the third time stated that he could evolve into other angel bloodlines. Why didn't the dwarf girl limit herself to dwarf bloodlines? Was it because he was male, or because his bloodline wasn't innate?
Shaking his head slightly, Zhuang Sen looked at Dantalian's information.
[The Holy Lamia bloodline has been developed to the intermediate level, and a random Lamia bloodline [Poisonous Lamia] *1 has been obtained.]
The Holy Lamia bloodline has reached maturity, its core abilities have been identified, and these abilities are permanently retained and can still be used after switching bloodlines.
So it turns out that you only need to awaken three times to identify your core abilities. I thought you had to develop them 100%... But that's a good thing. And now I have another level 3 bloodline [Grey Dwarf] and a level 4 bloodline [Poisonous Lamia]. I wonder who will be able to use them?
Zhuang Sen tested both new bloodlines and found that Nia was 90% compatible with the Gray Dwarfs, and Dantalian was 95% compatible with the Poisonous Lamia. These weren't surprising, given that Nia was originally a Dwarf and Lamia, respectively. However, how come Lady Lia was also 97% compatible with the Poisonous Lamia?
A femme fatale?
Is this, is this right?
Isn't Mrs. Lia a kind and good mother?
Making a mental note of this, Zhuang Sen looked at Nia and Dantalian: "How are you feeling?"
“Very good.” Nia answered first, striking a pose that accentuated her muscles with her right arm. However, monster girls don’t have muscles, so Zhuang Sen only saw a cute little girl trying to look adorable.
"My strength has increased, my abilities have changed, and I've added new 'magic'. My mastery of Elementary Poison Magic has become Intermediate, and I've also gained Intermediate Holy Magic Mastery. It seems that the original Blessing and Holy Lance spells have all been incorporated into it."
Nia put down her hand and nodded, saying, "It's the same for me. I've learned quite a few new things. My Elementary Earth Magic Mastery has become Intermediate, My Forging Proficiency has become Forging Master, and I've also gained 'Elementary Rune Mastery'."
Unlike normal natives who at most gain one or two skills upon awakening, the monster girls gain countless benefits each time they awaken. Zhuang Sen and his group didn't waste too much time on this and fast-forwarded to the next step.
"Then, the third inheritance begins. Nia, Dantalian, who would like to go first?"
Dantalian thought for a moment and pushed Nia forward: "Let Nia come first, just to see how far the limit distance is this time and what treasures are in store."
"Okay...right, I'll cut a blood vessel first."
Zhuang Sen reverted to his dwarf bloodline, transforming into an adorable little boy. Amidst Dantalian's surging desire and Lady Lia's undisguised longing gaze, he embraced the adorable little dwarf who was now as tall as him.
Inheritance, let's begin!
A black screen flashes, and the Molten Palace reappears.
Before Zhuang Sen could even stand up straight, he heard a shout: "Sisters, Nia has brought her man back to see us! Charge!"
???
Now, Zhuang Sen no longer needed to worry about standing; he had already lay down. The dwarf women who swarmed in from all directions tore off his complicated clothes, then pushed him to the ground and began to operate automatically.
Nia put her hands on her hips and shook her head helplessly: "Don't be so rough with other people's husbands, or I'll have to take action next time—darling~ enjoy yourself first, remember to tell me if you can't take it anymore~"
"Okay, okay, you should hurry on your way. The chieftain has been waiting for you for a long time—by the way, did you learn the runes I gave you last time?—Oh, they're too advanced~"
The dwarf girl, collapsing in three seconds, fell to the ground and was then kicked away like trash by her twin sisters. The new dwarf girl eagerly swallowed the soaked, large Zhuang Sen. The others who failed to get any more took initiative, their pert little butts pressing directly onto Zhuang Sen's face.
Zhuang Sen's screen remained black until the end.
[Dwarf female bloodline: 80%-90%]
[Bloodline of tall and short people: 15% - 20% - 30%]
The High and Low bloodline benefited from the Dwarf Mother's legacy reward again, gaining 5% of its bloodline potential. Combined with the synchronized gains, this brought Zhuang Sen close to a second awakening. The second awakening requirement for a level four bloodline is 35% bloodline development. There were also some new forging knowledge items, but those don't need further explanation.
Zhuang Sen rubbed his cheeks, which weren't being pressed down, with a slightly uncomfortable rub, and kissed Nia: "Tell me, what good things did you get in return for selling your husband's body?"
Nia proudly raised her hand: "Ta-da! Dwarf rings!"
In the small palm lay a pair of exquisite silver rings, each engraved with the names of Johnson and Nia on a pure silver base. Notably, Johnson's ring only bore the name "Johnson," not "Johnson Leon." The ring faces were made of pure gold, with a diamond set in the center, surrounded by five smaller rubies, sapphires, emeralds, topaz, and amethysts, making them look exceptionally beautiful.
The effect is also very beautiful.
[Dwarf Couple Rings]
[The rings were forged by the dwarf mother herself at her wedding. Each pair is unique. When the wearer is within 200 meters of each other, they can gain three effects: 'Medium Strength Enhancement', 'Low Endurance Enhancement', and 'Telepathy'. Furthermore, when they are damaged, the wearer can choose whether to share the damage.]
Love as firm as a rock, unbreakable.
[Founder: Nia Jong Harper]
"How about it? My cooking is great, isn't it?" Nia said proudly, which melted Zhuang Sen's heart, but also made him want to tease her.
"It is indeed a good item, but I seem to remember that at the end, a large, tanned dwarf woman said to me, 'Sir, you don't want your wife to fail in her forging, do you?'"
Nia pouted, "Ugh... well, that's because I'm not familiar with the rune forging process!"
Zhuang Sen smiled and kissed her alluring lips, then picked up a wedding ring and put it on Nia's ring finger: "Darling, marry me."
The wolves' watchful eyes fell on another ring in Nia's palm.
Chapter 115: The Egg of Lamia
"Dantrian, it's your turn."
Zhuang Sen reached out his hand to Dantalian. The nun looked at the glittering ring on his finger, and suddenly her snake tail swung, pulling Zhuang Sen into her arms, where he was brutally crushed and ravaged by her heavy breasts.
Nia's cheerful voice echoed in Zhuang Sen's mind: "Honey, good luck!"
Zhuang Sen replied in a telepathic dialogue: "You... speaking of which, can you even make props that allow this kind of telepathic dialogue?"
"Not yet, I don't have enough materials or enough practice, but I should be able to do it after I practice more."
"Alright then, I'll get back to work now..."
Zhuang Sen twisted his head and found that familiar and comfortable position in Dantalian's ample breasts, and used the Inheritance on her.
The screen went black for a moment.
In the luxurious hall, Dantalian appeared at the place where she had been defeated last time, while the other Lamia began to toy with each of the Johnsons, making Dantalian's already somewhat jealous and unhappy expression even more dissatisfied.
Zhuang Sen, who was entangled by the white Lamia in the deepest part, looked over there with concern. Last time, Dantalian fought all the way until she was exhausted. Although everything in the inheritance is an illusion, and even if you are killed, you will only leave the inheritance, the feeling is real, whether it is pleasure or pain.
We can only hope that Dantalian can overcome her weaknesses. According to Ange's findings, the main reason Dantalian was beaten was because she was too possessive. Now, she shouldn't be so possessive anymore... right?
As Zhuang Sen pondered this, Dantalian swam towards him, her tail swaying. Sure enough, a Lamia emerged, ready to fight Dantalian one-on-one, but Dantalian completely ignored her, flicking her tail and swimming past her.
Her gaze remained fixed solely on Zhuang Sen, who was "kidnapped" by the white Lamia in the deepest part of the area, without looking at anything else. Strangely, this prevented Lamia from blocking her path, allowing her to easily cross the three areas and continue moving forward.
Zhuang Sen was initially puzzled, but seeing the undisguised displeasure on Dantalian's holy face, he quickly realized what his darling was thinking.
"It's not that I've lost my possessiveness, but rather that I've changed the way I possess it, deciding to solve it once and for all..." Zhuang Sen patted the snake tail that was wrapped around him and tentatively asked, "Hey, do you think my darling can beat you?"
Because of the circumstances surrounding Lydia's inheritance, Zhuang Sen now strongly suspects that the NPCs within these inheritances actually possess a certain degree of self-awareness, at least those deepest down, those that are clearly the final bosses, should have it.
Unfortunately, his probing went unanswered. Lamia, who was clinging to him, did not answer his question. Instead, she tightened her grip and, facing Dantalian's murderous gaze, knocked Zhuang Sen down, opened the moist snake cavity hidden by layers of scales, and slowly swallowed the large Zhuang Sen.
The moist, tight snake cavity greedily squeezed Zhuang Sen, as if it wanted to crush, pulverize, and grind him into dust in one breath, causing Zhuang Sen's attention to become much more scattered. But this Lamia seemed to be not satisfied yet. The snake tail wriggled and directly made Zhuang Sen's head droop, blocking Zhuang Sen's vision and also blocking Dantalian's vision.
Zhuang Sen didn't even need to think carefully to know that his darling was about to fly into a rage. Although it seemed that rage wouldn't do any good, since the NPCs in this inheritance were clearly stronger the deeper they went, and they were all monster girls, even from the same race, all from the same school, so there was no way to play dirty tricks.
On the other side, Dantalian was indeed furious. Although she understood that this was just part of the inheritance test, deliberately designed to keep Zhuang Sen out of sight to provoke her, the reason the inheritance used this method was because she hated and even feared such things happening. Patiently analyzing the situation, Dantalian continued forward. Along the way, Lamia still jumped out to try and attack her, but she ignored them all and went around them, just as she ignored the women Zhuang Sen had seduced in real life.
Then, a voice rang out: "You can't do this, you little brat. Ignoring and suppressing will only lead to a bigger backlash. You don't want to wake up one day and find your man inside you, do you?"
The source of the sound was clear; it was the white Lamia deep within, the one that was exploiting Zhuang Sen.
Dantalian, her tail still twitching, retorted, "Huh? So you mean I should stop and kill these endless challengers, so you can continue toying with my man in peace?"
"Can't you find any other way besides these two?"
"I'd love to hear your advice."
“I didn’t give you any advice, you brat. I’m not your mother. And don’t try to test me anymore. I’m telling you, I’m not a consciousness conjured up from an inheritance, but a real, existing soul consciousness. Do you believe me?”
"It doesn't matter." Dantalian placed one hand on the invisible wall, looking at the white Lamia who was still far away from her, as if the distance had not shortened at all: "Whether you are real or fake, you are ultimately something controlled by my man. Similarly, whether you are real or fake, once I catch you, I will turn you into my man's toy."
"Hehehe... I'm looking forward to that day, little guy, but before that, you should figure out which way you should go first, hahaha."
Accompanied by a queen-like laugh, Da Da Zhuang Sen lost himself in the moist snake cavity, and then the black screen appeared.
Zhuang Sen opened his eyes; it was still pitch black. However, the familiar milky scent told him he was back in reality. Dantalian's tighter embrace made him realize that Da'ai wasn't as confident and domineering as she appeared in the inheritance. So he hugged her increasingly full body tighter in return: "Darling..."
"Idiot, don't speak now."
For once, Dantalian showed a willful and coquettish side, directly silencing Zhuang Sen. She simply hugged Zhuang Sen tightly. Zhuang Sen opened his mouth, not knowing how to continue comforting her. After all, he could not abandon any of his wives, so he could only hug Dantalian even tighter.
After a while, Dantalian slowly released Zhuang Sen, "pulling" him out of her chest. Smiling sweetly, showing no sign of disappointment, she pulled out an egg: "Darling, this is our child~"
???
Zhuang Sen took the egg with a head full of questions, and the system immediately popped up a message.
The Egg of Lamia
The eggs of the Lamia subspecies, if unfertilized, can be used as nesting anchors for the Lamia subspecies.
Jealousy, the essence of a snake, runs through its veins.
Clearly, this is the reward Dantalian received: a nest anchor point similar to the Sacred Scale Fruit Tree, except that this one is restricted to the Lamia subspecies, while the Sacred Scale Fruit Tree is restricted to the Divine Scale Fruit Tree... But what would happen if it were fertilized?
"It will become our baby~"
Dantalian stroked the Lamia Egg, which was even larger than Zhuang Sen's head, and tempted, "How about it? Want to give it a try? You can raise a little cutie who will listen to everything you say from a young age~"
"Don't make it sound so strange. The eggshell is already there, how could I possibly poke it in to fertilize her?" Zhuang Sen tapped Dantalian on the head. "Besides, I have a lovely snake woman, that's enough for me."
The item information is very clear: snakes are jealous by blood. Even if they are related by blood, they cannot share. If they really create a snake daughter, whose side will they take when the mother and daughter fight? They can kill them all now, but will they do the same in the future?
However, this interruption eased the somewhat awkward atmosphere between the two. Zhuang Sen shook his head and put away the Lamia Egg. It wasn't the time to use it yet, and it wasn't time to set up a nest.
Now is the time to find a way to kill Old Deng.

Chapter 116: Banquet Invitation
While Zhuang Sen and his companions were discussing what excuse to use to lure Count Cross out, a maid knocked on the door of the alchemy room: "Madam, young master, a messenger from the count requests an audience."
