AFTER STEALING HERO'S MOTHER, I REINCARNATED IN THE FANTASY WORLD!C45: Beginning of the battle
As soon as Rain took a step, the entire space around them along with the forest distorted, creating an indistinguishable image.
It was similar to the moment when they went through the portal into the rift, but this time it lasted longer, making Aelorian feel a slight prick of unease.
With each passing second, the space around them grew more turbulent, and the vortices surrounding them grew more stormy, as if threatening to engulf them at the first opportunity.
Aelorian glanced at Rain's still calm and confident face, without any trace of worry. She had noticed how calm he had been when the monster had suddenly attacked them, allowing him to react first, and now that they were in such an uncertain situation where anything could happen. Somehow, it was his confident face that made her feel calm, despite everything that was going on around her.
She became even more convinced that there was something more to him and only clung tighter to him.
Even through her battle suit, Rain could still feel the warmth and softness of her body, not to mention her breasts that were pressed tightly against him. Rain looked at the girl in his arms with complicated emotions.
Aelorian was originally the one who helped the hero find his way to this place and brought him here. So throughout the first day, Rain had been waiting to see if she could sense something again and lead them here. But when he saw that she wasn't even planning to go towards this place, he had to take matters into his own hands and do everything himself.
Even the way she was acting now, pressing herself hard against him, was very different from when she had walked in here with the hero. Cale was still weaker than her, so she tried to cheer him up and assure him that there was nothing dangerous in this place and they'd get through it all.
'The changes from my intervention are becoming more and more noticeable.'
With a faint smile, Rain thought, but soon dismissed those thoughts and continued to stare ahead.
'Anyway, I was already prepared for it when I went this path.'
Finally, the violent swirls of space around them began to subside and gradually the outlines of their surroundings began to appear.
It seemed to be the same forest they were in, only with the difference that it was night and there were many stars in the sky. But something else about this place was different, giving them a strange sensation.
Before they could look around and realize what exactly it was, something glittered in front of them at lightning speed. With Aelorian clinging to him, Rain no longer had time to dodge, so all he had to do was raise his sword to protect them.
*Clang*
The next moment, a ringing sound from the clash of his sword and sharp claws echoed through the surroundings.
Even with his improved physique, Rain felt his hands go numb from simply blocking that blow.
Once Rain recovered from that, he saw the one who had delivered that blow. The one true monster and the master of this rift stood in front of him.
It resembled a huge wolf in some ways, but its body fur was thicker and more complexly colored, the color of the polar lights, and it was much larger than any they had encountered on this test. Its bright turquoise eyes shone in the night, reflecting the two uninvited guests as it watched them with the sole desire to tear them to shreds.
If one looked closely, one could see almost invisible chains shimmering around its body, shimmering in time with its fur.
Without delay, Rain activated the status on it.

__________________________
Although the rift master had a sealed bloodline and cultivation, Rain did not underestimate it, as he realized from the past strike that its physical strength alone was enough to be a difficult opponent. Moreover, unlike the previous monsters, it possessed advanced intelligence and would even attack them immediately after entering while they were at their most vulnerable.
The situation was further aggravated by the fact that the moment an intruder entered this place, the monster seals would give a crack and begin to slowly fall off.
Time was playing against them, so they couldn't delay. Rain decided not to wait and attack first, so he rushed toward the monster, giving his elf partner only one phrase.
"We work in the same order as always."
Unlike last time, Aelorian didn't need time to recover and she quickly adapted to the situation. She immediately pulled out her longbow with the runes engraved on it and put one of the arrows in it.
Over the last day spent in constant battles, they had gotten used to each other and learned to work well together as a team.
By the time Aelorian drew her bow, Rain had already reached the huge wolf-like monster, taking a swing of his sword towards it. The blade of his sword split the air and headed for the monster's neck with deadly accuracy, but its claws managed to block it before the blade even touched its body.
Without any hesitation, Rain continued to attack it with his sword, aiming at its weak points while it reflected them with its claws.
Each collision between the sword blade and the hard tempered claws of the huge wolf sent bright sparks flying through the night air.
Using his innate fighting sense along with his sword techniques, Rain was able to level out the difference in brute strength between the two and not give the advantage to his opponent.
They moved around the battlefield, seeking to cut off their opponent's life with every blow. Perhaps because the monster was under the influence of the seal, its movements became stiff from time to time and Rain always used this moment to give it a couple of clear blows. But even though the monster's fur didn't look rough, it was enough to stop most sword and arrow attacks hitting it.
Although Rain was able to handle the brute strength of this ferocious wolf, it was still much larger than him, which sometimes put him in a predicament.
When it happened once again, the monster noticed it and immediately swung its jaw at his exposed shoulder. The moment its threateningly sharp teeth were a couple of centimeters from the young man's shoulder, an arrow whizzed by Rain's ear, snapping in and throwing the huge wolf's jaws away from him.
While the monster was confused, Rain took advantage of this moment and ruthlessly attacked it, first inflicting a tangible wound just below its neck.
The monster let out an enraged howl as its attack failed and instead it itself was hurt.
'For a pile of points, you're too loud.'
With these thoughts, Aelorian released another arrow.
With the support of his partner, Rain gradually got used to his opponent and honed his fighting style with it, occasionally changing stances and using different sword techniques to adjust to his enemy. However, this monster also possessed intelligence and excellent combat sense, so it quickly adapted to Rain's attacks, preventing him from taking the advantage.
Still, over time, from the concerted teamwork of Rain and Aelorian, the damage on the monster's body began to accumulate, putting it at a disadvantage. When Rain finally felt that he had gained an advantage over it, a system warning sounded in his head.
[Spatial anomaly detected.]
Before Rain could realize the meaning of those words, the huge wolf was out of his sight, and the next second Rain felt a pair of sharp claws on his side, and then he was violently torn from the ground and thrown aside. He only stopped when his body hit the first tree with a loud thud.
Despite the pain, Rain didn't make a sound and instead looked at the monster in front of him, whose turquoise eyes had a mystical tint in them and its fangs seemed to grin in a smirk.
[Bloodline: Wanderer of the Cosmic Void (fully sealed) → (99% sealed)]
'Damn, it's too early for that.'
Rain cursed to himself, spitting up blood and only gripping the hilt of his sword tighter.

AFTER STEALING HERO'S MOTHER, I REINCARNATED IN THE FANTASY WORLD!C46: Confronting the Rift Master
Scolding to himself Rain looked up at the huge wolf that seemed to be grinning at him.
[Bloodline: Wanderer of the Cosmic Void (fully sealed) → (99% sealed)]
Even a single percentage of unsealing its bloodline allowed it to use an ability similar to high level magic, teleportation. It made Rain involuntarily remember its origins.
The race of these monsters originally only dwelled in one place, namely space.
But even for a race that was born and lived in space, they had incredible power and affinity with the cosmic element. There was even a legend that their ancestor was the God who created all the universes, for which they received the title of the first children of space.
And they lived up to that title, as their skill in controlling space was unrivaled, making them almost omnipotent in their native environment.
Then how did they get captured by the Academy?
As usual, defeating a strong monster required an even stronger monster. In this case, it was the principal of their academy, Ophelia.
She was one of the few people in this world who could enter space without being corroded by its cold and, thanks to her unique bloodline, stay there long enough to catch these monsters.
However, these monsters, along with their incredible talent in controlling space, had an innate unwavering pride that made them prefer to die rather than serve humans. Therefore, even with her power, Ophelia was unable to subdue them and only had to seal their cultivation and bloodline to use them only as rift cores.
It didn't allow them to utilize their full potential, but these seals ensured that no one would be torn to pieces by these monsters.
And now that seal began to fall from the rift master in front of him, gradually allowing it access to its true power once more. It was not easy to deal with it before, but now it might be even more difficult.
'Why did this happen so much sooner than it did to the hero?'
Rain couldn't find an answer to that question because he wasn't given the time to do so. Rain ducked sharply, and the next second the tree behind him was shattered into tiny splinters by the monster's powerful claws.
Rain quickly did a roll and created distance between him and the monster, but even that could do little to help him, as it could now teleport in the surrounding space, which along with its advanced intelligence, gave it a huge amount of options to attack.
And unlike the hero, Rain couldn't rely on his luck or the World's Will to dodge them. But he wasn't too worried about that, because he still had his main trump card up his sleeve.
'Nari, if you're able to notice the spatial anomaly around, can you sense it before it teleports?'
[...I can try, but keep your guard up.]
Having gotten the answer he wanted, Rain focused his full attention on his opponent. It stared at him for a while with amusement in its eyes before silently disappearing from its position.
[Left.]
Hearing the system, Rain abruptly turned in the proper direction and it was just at the instant the toothy maw of the monster appeared in front of him. Thanks to his timely reaction, Rain was able to dodge it.
Immediately afterward, the monster froze in place in bewilderment, noticing that its victim had somehow escaped. It once again used teleportation to catch him off guard. But not only was the situation repeated, but the young man even managed to strike back after his evasion.
Annoyed by the two failures in a row, the monster continued its attack in this manner, not believing that this man would lead like this every time.
As it did so, the system analyzed the spatial fluctuations, telling Rain the direction from which his enemy should have jumped out. Though Rain only had a moment to spare, his keen senses from his bloodline allowed him to react in time. Sometimes he even managed to catch it off guard and strike first, knowing where it would come from.
Together with the long-range support from Aelorian, Rain not only regained his position, but also gained an advantage. Of course, it was too early to rejoice, for the seals on the rift master were growing weaker by the minute.
[Bloodline: Wanderer of the Cosmic Void (99% sealed) → (97% sealed)]
They continued to move around the battlefield and exchange fierce attacks, destroying everything in their path.
It seemed that it soon realized that the man was relying on something other than luck, as he had successfully dodged its attacks for the umpteenth time and even managed to attack back. Therefore, it immediately changed its tactics.
Pulling back slightly, as if it wanted to make another lunge with its claws at the young man, it teleported sharply towards the elf girl, who still wouldn't stop hindering it with her arrows.
In just an instant, it crossed all the space separating them and appeared in front of her, baring its dangerous claws and bringing them down on her frail body.
However, Aelorian showed no sign of panic, and before the claws touched her body, a faint aura of wind appeared around her and the attack passed its target.
Her bloodline ability made her immune to these kinds of attacks, but had one glaring weakness, it still needed to be activated. So it wouldn't have worked against sudden attacks like the one she'd been subjected to in the forest. But now that she knew about the monster's teleportation abilities, she never let her guard down and was ready to activate the power of her bloodline at any moment.
Even after the monster's strike failed, Aelorian did not create distance between them, instead deftly putting away her bow and pulling out two long daggers before quickly delivering a couple of precise blows to its body.
As it was about to attack back, an arrow suddenly flew into its back, piercing through its protective cover. It turned sharply in the direction from which the attack had come, and saw Rain, with a slight smile on his lips, pulling the bowstring for another shot.
Before it could pick its next target to attack, Aelorian caught its attention again.
Over the past day of teamwork, they had realized that even though they each had a favorite weapon, in one case a sword and in the other a bow, they could usually switch between ranged and close combat as well as between different weapons without losing skill.
Rain didn't doubt her ability to stand up to the monster in close combat, because he had already fought her in sparring matches and knew about her annoying bloodline, which made him have to resort to some tricks for a quick victory.
Rain cold-bloodedly drew the bowstring, and every time he released it, the monster let out a faint growl.
Of course, Aelorian still had a hard time in close combat with such a huge monster, surpassing her in both size and strength, and her bloodline also had its own time constraints, so they soon switched roles again.
Perhaps it was because of Aelorian's annoying ability or just its hurt pride, but the rift master no longer tried to attack the elf girl, and focused completely on Rain, forgetting about everything else.
[Bloodline: Wanderer of the Cosmic Void (97% sealed) → (95% sealed)]
With murderous intent, they continued to exchange blows, each one making the surrounding air vibrate. Rain continued to dodge the powerful blows, parrying the others and using the sword techniques he had learned from Astrid and those he knew from his home world.
[Bloodline: Wanderer of the Cosmic Void (95% sealed) → (92% sealed)]
The rift master's seal was weakening and it was regaining its space control abilities, making each new teleportation faster than the last. As time passed, Rain was having trouble keeping up with it, even with the help of the system.
When he finally decided to change his approach, the monster's mouth opened. Rain immediately braced himself for another attack, but it didn't happen.
"You're pretty good at dodging… for a human."
For the first time since the battle began, Rain heard something other than a growl from it.
And its voice was surprisingly... normal? It was a rather high and beautiful voice, one that Rain wouldn't have been able to distinguish from a human's if he'd heard it on the street. And if it weren't for the huge arrogance in that voice, he might even have found it pleasant.
What surprised Rain even more was that he understood its words, even though he was sure he was hearing the language for the first time.
[This is one of the functions of the system that allows the host to understand and communicate with almost any creature, if it is intelligent enough.]
Nodding at the system's explanation, Rain quickly cast a glance at Aelorian, who showed no unresponsiveness to its words.
Coming to the conclusion that she really didn't understand its language, Rain lunged at his opponent again.
He understood the language of the rift master and could communicate, but so what?
Rain had come to this place with a specific purpose and regardless of its words he would not change it. And while his enemy was wasting time with words, Rain preferred to attack it.
However, the rift master continued to speak.
"Is it because you have the support of the Goddess of Darkness?"
Rain unconsciously froze for a second, and his eyes narrowed as he looked at the monster in front of him.
'How did it...?'

AFTER STEALING HERO'S MOTHER, I REINCARNATED IN THE FANTASY WORLD!C47: Battle continues & green Cale is worried
'How did it...?'
When Rain heard the name he least expected to hear, he got a bad feeling and immediately mentally shifted his gaze to the system.
[...]
But she didn't comment on the rift master's words in any way.
Rain was sure that the Goddess of Darkness who helped him move to this world was not among the known gods of this world. Therefore, he didn't understand how anyone here could know about her.
'If the rift master knows about my connection to the Goddess of Darkness, could it also know about the system?'
The killing intent in the young man's eyes intensified.
The system was his main trump card and if someone managed to expose it, there would be a lot more problems.
'It's lucky that Aelorian doesn't understand the words of a rift master, otherwise it would be hard to explain.'
While these thoughts ran through his mind, his body never stopped moving quickly, dodging his opponent's attacks and striking back.
'I don't know how it knows this, but I'm going to find out and silence it once and for all.'
Rain with even more killing intent began to attack it using his sword techniques.
"Judging by your reaction… do you understand me?"
Apparently not expecting this, it expressed its surprise by parallel swinging its tail at him.
"It is commendable that a mere human knows the language of higher beings such as ourselves. It is an honor to you, human."
Ignoring its arrogant words, Rain dodged the approaching attack.
[Bloodline: Wanderer of the Cosmic Void (92% sealed) → (88% sealed)]
Time was playing against them, and both Rain and Aelorian realized this, as did the rift master. For as soon as its seals were completely broken and it regained its full power, they would lose instantly.
The monster was getting faster and more elusive by the minute, feeling a new burst of strength. It didn't even notice the many arrows sticking out of its body, nor the cuts all over its body.
All of Rain's attention was focused on it and he didn't allow himself to be distracted by anything.
Noticing the fast approaching attack, Rain did not dodge but instead rushed forward, and at the last moment he skillfully maneuvered past the razor-sharp claws that came within a millimeter of his body.
When its blow failed, the monster was in a vulnerable position for a moment, something Rain immediately took advantage of. Still with the same equanimity, he sidestepped the monster, and his blade cut through the air with deadly precision, sinking into its neck. A stream of blood spurted and sprinkled the ground.
The true skill in combat was to achieve the maximum result at the minimum cost. That is, to make movements sufficient only to evade a blow by a hair's breadth. This allowed one to maintain stamina and mislead the opponent when it did not realize whether its attack had reached its target or not.
And thanks to his bloodline, Rain was perfectly capable of doing so. Although he hadn't yet gained an active ability like Aelorian, his senses were already far beyond normal levels.
In battle, it helped to fully unleash Rain's innate fighting talent, allowing him to sense battle and control the pace of battle on a whole other level.
Looking at the ground, the rift master saw so much of its blood for the first time in a long time.
"I've been trapped here for years, and I didn't expect the first person I met to be so interesting."
It could no longer remember the last time it had shown interest in someone, but this young man made it feel unusually excited.
"It's incredibly boring here, so please hold out as long as you can before I eat you."
The monster didn't stop its attacks, just talking between the two of them as if they were now sitting at a table drinking tea.
"Come on, answer me, I can sense by your increased bloodlust that you understand me."
"Make no mistake, I just thought your head would look great in my living room."
For the first time, Rain answered, trying to provoke the monster. And he succeeded, because there was a trace of anger in its previously arrogant voice.
"Don't get cocky, human!"
The wolf's jaws clamped down on his sword after Rain's lunge. Compared to its claws, its fangs were much harder, so the sword, reinforced with spells and runes, could not withstand even a second of pressure and shattered into many small pieces.
'What a troublesome monster.'
Rain jumped away from it while pulling out a new sword from his storage ring.
[Bloodline: Wanderer of the Cosmic Void (88% sealed) → (84% sealed)]
At this moment, the rift master sensed something and a trace of anger disappeared from its eyes, replaced instead by a sly glint.
[Careful, the fluctuations of space around it have changed, it's trying to do something.]
It stopped attacking the young man, who seemed to be able to anticipate its movements, and instantly teleported to the elf girl.
This time it didn't use its claws or even try to attack her, but instead there was a noticeable spatial fluctuation around it with a retracting force.
Realizing what it could be, Rain tore towards them with as much speed as possible and before the retracting force became too strong, pushed Aelorian away.
The next second Rain, along with the rift master, disappeared from the place, leaving the confused elfess alone.
"Rain?"
Her voice sounded, but remained unanswered.
°°°°
At this time, somewhere in the rift.
Cale walked quickly through the thicket, approaching a certain spot. But soon he sensed something and turned back. A look of intense irritation instantly appeared on his face.
'That fatty doesn't move at all!'
A couple hundred meters behind him, he saw his partner, Donat, panting, barely trailing after him.
Cale couldn't keep up his normal speed as he had to constantly stop and wait for his obese partner.
'Did he say he had the bloodline of a Golden Hog? Shit, it's more like the bloodline of a fucking snail!'
If the test hadn't penalized him for parting with his partner, Cale would have already abandoned him and gone off on his own. But now he was doomed to carry him with him.
Looking at Donat once more, Cale clenched his fists.
'Why did it come out this way?'
He had chosen this fat man only after Rain had promised to swap partners with him. Though Cale hadn't shown it in his interactions with him, for all he'd done to Aelorian, he wanted him to suffer.
Cale had seen perfectly well how, during the sparring sessions, Rain's hands had shamelessly explored his girlfriend's body as she wriggled and blushed beneath him. At the time, he could only stand there and clench his fists until they bled, vowing to himself to take vicious revenge on him.
Cale knew how much nobles valued their honor, so he had no doubts about his choice.
Would Rain, coming from one of the most famous families, be able to renege on his word?
No. At least that's what he thought.
But that bastard not only broke his word, but also took his girlfriend before his eyes, taking away his hope at the very end!
The memories made the blood rush to his face again.
'If I meet you here, I'll...'
Cale snapped out of his thoughts because a panting Donat was already at his side.
"Are we t-there yet??"
Veins swelled on Cale's forehead, but he tried to restrain himself as much as he could and only said through clenched teeth.
"No, we're not there yet."
With those words, Cale looked ahead.
'I feel like we're getting close.'
He didn't know how to explain it, but something inside told him he had to go there.
At that moment he turned his attention to the sky. Unlike its calm state of the last few days, it was now swirling with turbulence.
"What's that?"
Unconsciously Cale asked, gazing into those turbulent swirls.
"Looks like a donut."
"Stop thinking about food, fatty!"
Cale hissed through clenched teeth, glaring fiercely at his partner.
'We only ate half an hour ago! And that was the fourth time this morning!'
At times, Cale even wondered if Donat really needed this to keep himself in fighting shape or if he just wanted to eat.
"Did you say something?"
Donat struggled to pull himself out of his daydreams and looked at Cale.
With an effort, Cale came to his senses and said with a smile.
"I say I'll buy you one as soon as we get out of here, so let's hurry."
"Оkay!"
Donat brightened visibly and walked forward. Looking at him, Cale calmed himself and exhaled.
'At the very least, he makes a good meat shield in fights.'
They were currently in third place in the rankings among the test participants, but if things continued like this, Cale was sure that in a couple days they could rise to first place.
At that moment, thunder rumbled in the sky, catching their attention, and it began to rain. The drops fell on them as they both looked up at the sky, which was even more heavily covered with dark clouds.
Not only them, but students across the rift also noticed the change and raised their heads to the sky.
"What's that?"
"It's like the end of the world..."
"Don't bullshit, we're at the academy, it's the safest place in the world!"
"...it looks dangerous."
"No, there's no way I'm dying a virgin!!!"
The guy shouted and turned to his partner, but the latter only gave him a strange look.
"Dude, I'm your brother."
In each part of the rift, students increasingly noticed strange phenomena in the sky.
Some were worried, some were angry, some were excited, and some just wanted to eat...
But they all had something in common - they didn't know the reasons for what was happening now.

AFTER STEALING HERO'S MOTHER, I REINCARNATED IN THE FANTASY WORLD!C48: Are you... smiling?
In unknown space.
Rain stared at the sky for a while, where all the stars had disappeared, making it completely dark. Then he looked at his surroundings.
Aside from the fact that Aelorian was nowhere near him, this place seemed identical to the previous one, down to every rock and tree. But Rain felt as if everything around him had changed, as if it had become unfamiliar to him.
Even the Rift Master was in no hurry to attack him, as if letting him enjoy his last moments of life, already considering itself the ultimate victor.
"You've already felt it, right? This is the end for you."
The wounds on its body were now healing quickly and its polar glow colored fur was now covered in an unusual aura as it looked at the young man before it. He was the first human the Rift Master had interacted with in over a century and maybe not on purpose, but he had freed it from its shackles that had long held it back. So before it devoured him, it had the urge to talk to him.
"I knew you would surely rush to save that elf girl and forget your caution."
A tinge of contempt appeared in its voice as it asked.
"But what's the point of saving someone if you can't handle it yourself?"
Seeing that the young man was still silent, it took that as acceptance of its words, so it continued.
"You succumbed to the emotion of the moment and acted irrationally and foolishly. It's the reason you humans will never surpass us. Therefore, you–"
The monster didn't finish its sentence because it saw something.
"Are you... smiling?"
It noticed the wide, crazy smile on the young man's lips.
The Rift Master looked at him strangely, as if wondering if he had lost his mind at its words. Perhaps if it wasn't the absolute ruler of this place, it might even have thought he had more aces up his sleeve.
Rain paid no attention to its words as he had only one thought in his mind right now.
'I finally did it.'
In the battle with the hero, the Rift Master also used this ability and pulled them into this place, though it was much later and it didn't initially swarm at Aelorian but chose a weaker target, Cale.
Those two differences aside, everything else was the same. And although Rain had to intervene a little, he was still able to get the situation right.
If he already had a path that the hero had kindly laid out for him, why not use it?
The smile on Rain's face grew even wider.
"Have you really lost your mind?"
Its confidence was justified, for it was indeed the absolute ruler of this place, but Rain also knew all of its weaknesses.
"You talk too much."
Rain uttered, rushing towards it. But before he reached the Rift Master, he sensed danger at the side and quickly jumped back in the other direction.
He saw that the place where he had just been was pierced by several spikes from underground. As he reached the monster, it repeated several more times, as if the place itself wanted to kill him.
But he deftly dodged them, even if they came from his blind spot.
In this place, the Rift Master adhered to certain attack patterns that Rain had already thoroughly learned from its battle with the hero. And with a system to help him, he was even more confident.
"Hmm, not bad..."
The monster muttered, finally throwing itself towards the young man with its claws, which were now also covered in extraordinary energy.
They exchanged a few blows as before, the only difference being that now the monster's body was protected by a thin layer of cosmic energy and no attack could reach it. But even so, Rain continued his attacks methodically, searching for something, until his eyes caught the faint wound in its neck.
It didn't look like something the monster had gotten in the fight with Rain and was older in appearance.
Smiling to himself, Rain realized this was what he needed.
It was a wound the Rift Master had received during its battle with Ophelia. Because a shard of her weapon was lodged in it, it didn't heal even after decades. This shard was special on its own, but after feeding on the monster's energy and life force all this time, it turned into a top rank artifact with a space element.
This was the main opportunity the hero got from defeating this monster.
Dodging several more sharp spatial blades, Rain jumped away from it, creating distance between them.
In other places the Rift Master would never let its guard down enough for Rain to to exploit its main vulnerability, but in this place the monster considered itself invincible and with its innate arrogance it was becoming its main weakness.
Rain opened the system store.
'Things are going as well as they can. So it's time for the final–'
But the notice interrupted Rain's thoughts.
[Bloodline: Wanderer of the Cosmic Void (88% sealed) → (30% sealed)]
Rain's pupils narrowed, but before he could do anything, the Rift Master's eyes flashed with a faint glow.
There was no sound, no bright effect, just the next second the whole world split in two.
Everything Rain's eyes reached, no matter what it was - trees, cliffs, hills, or the tiniest raindrops - was instantly cut without the possibility of ever recovering.
Even the air itself did not escape such a fate and was ruthlessly cut.
Rain felt his body follow the same impulse and begin to split into two along with the surrounding space. But it was only a fleeting sensation, because the next second he was back to his senses again.
Looking down he noticed that he now only had a piece of sword in his hands with a perfectly smooth cut. His clothes were also slashed, but his body was fine.
Suddenly remembering something, Rain looked into his storage ring. The red ruby he had just recently received from Liana had already lost its radiance. Realizing what this meant, Rain experienced complicated emotions, but quickly brushed them aside.
'I will need to thank her and give her a gift in return.'
With these thoughts, Rain looked at the monster's head with interest.
The Rift Master didn't even look at the place where the young man had been a while ago. It knew he hadn't dodged this time, and its ability had hit him, which meant only one thing: he was dead, cut in half like everyone else who had ever been hit by it.
The monster didn't know why the seals around it had weakened so dramatically, giving it enough power to activate this attack, but it didn't care. More important was that it would finally be able to leave this place.
The monster gazed up into the starless sky that reminded it of its home.
"I'll be back soon..."
"... but before that, I'll make that bitch Ophelia pay for everything with her blood and destroy the academy that she has so carefully protected and nurtured!"
The Rift Master growled to the sky as the fire of hatred burned in its eyes.
Rain looked at how everything within a radius of thousands of meters was cleanly cut down. Even he could still feel the phantom pain in his waist.
Without any reason for it, most of the monster's seal abruptly went down. It wasn't worth mentioning that this had never happened to the hero before.
Rain didn't know if this change was due to the interference of the World's Will and he didn't want to think about it because…
'You fucked up this time.'
While the Rift Master muttered something to itself, staring up into the starless sky, Rain closed his eyes.
The moment he had this near-death experience, something deep inside him awakened, as if making his blood boil like never before.
He concentrated on that feeling and when he opened his eyes again, the world in his eyes lost its colors. But along with that, everything around him slowed down a dozen times, allowing him to see even the smallest details.
It seemed that all his senses had reached their peak and synchronized with each other, giving birth to something new. Even predicting an attack from the micro-movements of one's body and muscles now seemed like a fairly simple task.
His body's instincts, fueled by his bloodline roared and an intoxicating power flowed through his veins, taking his body beyond its limits.
If he could see himself from the outside, he would find that his eyes were now glowing a rich bloody color.
Rain glanced at the huge wolf, who was still engrossed in remembering something, occasionally growling at the sky and oblivious to its surroundings. Rain silently rushed toward it.
When he was a few meters away, the monster sensed something and turned around sharply. Its eyes widened in disbelief, staring at the man before it.
Its clawed paw instinctively moved, releasing several space slashes, but the young man, with speed far beyond his previous one, easily dodged it by leaping into the air.
His condition allowed him to immediately see a vulnerable spot on its neck that he had never been able to reach before.
Time slowed around him as Rain concentrated on his memories and replayed in his head the sword stroke that the hero Cale had used to finish off the monster. Finally, remembering every movement in detail, Rain smirked and… threw his sword away.
The monster looked at the sword slowly flying to the ground with a confused look.
If it hadn't been so distracted by the falling blade, it would have noticed that at that moment a round leather object appeared in Rain's hands, emitting mystical shine and something resembling a collar...
No, it was actually a collar!
"Come to Daddy, little doggy~"
With a smirk, Rain activated the item in his hands.

AFTER STEALING HERO'S MOTHER, I REINCARNATED IN THE FANTASY WORLD!C49: Domination & tasting elven beauty
After Rain activated the item in his hand, it emitted a faint light. The hair on the monster's body stood up at the sight of it, and it immediately swung its jaws at him.
But even in the air, Rain dodged easily, twisting his body sharply. After that maneuver, he was already directly above its head, and his hand with the collar touched the only vulnerable spot on its body, the small wound on its neck.
The next second, a bright light burst out of the collar, flooding their surroundings and blinding them for a couple seconds.
Once it was over and Rain opened his eyes, he saw the Rift Master in front of him with a collar around its neck.
The collar had increased in size and now fit perfectly around the neck of this huge wolf, who stared at it in disbelief. But soon its emotions of shock passed and were replaced by incredible anger.
Did the human put a collar on it like it was some kind of mongrel?
It looked with a fire of hatred in its eyes at the young man who stood calmly beside it and smirked, as if assessing whether the collar was the right color for it.
The Rift Master didn't know how he did it, but it knew that if it didn't tear him to shreds right now, it would never forget this shame. But just as it swung its paw to chop up his body the next moment, a deep voice came to it.
"Down."
Immediately afterward, an unknown force sharply pinned it to the ground, almost driving its head into the ground.
Rain looked at the monster in front of him who was trying its best to get rid of this humiliating position, but its body didn't move even a millimeter and its head remained bowed in front of Rain.
There may have been no way to tame these proud monsters in this world, but what did Rain have?
He had a system that had literally everything! As long as he had enough points, he could buy whatever he wanted.
As for his choice, he didn't want to kill the Rift Master from the beginning, but planned to subdue it.
Who cares what this hero Cale did?
Rain wasn't a moron to just follow the path laid out by another without thinking of what he himself would want.
Just as with women Rain believed he could give them more pleasure than a hero, so with his other opportunities Rain believed he could make much better use of them.
"Y-you, human! What have you done to me?!"
A wildly angry voice came to Rain's ears.
It was amusing to watch the Rift Master, realizing that the problem with its humiliating position was the collar, trying with its front and back paws to pull it off.
Now that it lay before him, Rain realized once again how huge it was.
"How do I get it out of here unnoticed?"
As Rain pondered aloud, he heard the system's voice.
[Since the monster was wearing this collar, it, like all system items, can now be placed in the system storage. The storage stops time for everything that goes into it, so the Rift Master can't do anything until you summon it back.]
"It's a good idea, but I'd still be uncomfortable taking such a huge monster with me. Not to mention there might be people in this world who know its appearance."
After a brief silence, the system gave another option.
[If you customize the collar, it can take humanoid form.]
"Turning into a human?"
Rain pondered the concept for a moment.
In the stories he'd read as a child, at times like this, monsters usually turned into cute girls or big-breasted mature beauties.
'I just hope it follows that principle too and doesn't turn into some bald, toothless old man...'
*Crackle*
Hearing the cracking sound, Rain looked up into the sky and saw that the space the Rift Master had pulled him into was beginning to crack.
'Okay, I'll check it out at home.'
Rain leaned over to the defeated Rift Master who still lay at his feet and patted it approvingly on the head.
"System, move it to the storage."
"Human, I will definitely–!"
Its words were cut short as it disappeared from its spot. As soon as the echo of its angry growl ended, Rain sighed with a smile.
"What a nice silence~"
He didn't get to savor that moment of silence because space finally disintegrated, moving him to the place where he and Aelorian had confronted the monster not so long ago.
The world in his eyes returned to its colors again and the wonderful power spreading through his body slowly faded away. At the same time, fatigue and pain came over him, which he did not feel while he was in that state.
The strength left his body and the next moment he felt that he was already lying on the ground.
*Thunder*
With a roll of thunder, clouds appeared in the sky and rain fell, as if the world itself was mourning the loss of its master.
Rain lay on the ground, watching small raindrops fall on him.
His body was aching in many places right now, and every cell in his body felt unbearably tired. But still, a smile remained on his lips.
'Things may not have gone exactly according to plan, but in the end I won and got everything I wanted.'
At that moment, Rain noticed an elven beauty running up to him. With obvious concern in her eyes, she immediately crouched beside him.
Aelorian looked at his cut and tattered clothes, in places covered in bloodstains.
She didn't ask if he was okay or if he was able to defeat that monster, just continued to stare at him in silence. After a few seconds, she leaned toward him.
Her minty scent hit his nose as her soft lips touched his.
Before Rain could wonder what was happening, he felt a stream of energy flow from her mouth into him, making the pain in his body subside.
'I think I got even more than I expected.'
Rain thought, savoring the sweet taste of her plump lips.
From the energy flowing into him, euphoria spread through his every cell as his wounds healed and all the fatigue left his body. The speed at which this was happening was beyond any healing potion.
'This is incredibly pleasant, but... I want more!'
Rain plunged his tongue into her mouth and, like a thirsty wanderer in the desert, began to greedily suck that energy out of her.
"Khhhmmmm!"
Feeling his tongue invade her private space and begin to unceremoniously explore her mouth, her eyes widened and her ears reddened and twitched.
Aelorian tried to pull away, but his strong hand held the back of her head, pulling her against him.
Unable to stand the fact that he felt like he was the master and doing whatever he wanted in her mouth, she tried to stop him with her tongue, but he only shifted his attention to it, starting to suck on it.
"Mmhhhhh~!"
Along with that, one of his hands moved to her long pointed ears, beginning to caress them, making her body tremble.
"Mnnnngghhhh~!"
Her breasts rubbed against his body as his arms wrapped around her curves.
Having tasted this elven beauty, Rain found it impossible to stop. His wounds had already healed, but it wasn't enough for him and with each passing second he sucked more and more out of her as his hands squeezed her body more and more greedily.

AFTER STEALING HERO'S MOTHER, I REINCARNATED IN THE FANTASY WORLD!C50: You've already sucked it all out...
"Chuuuuupppp~"
As Rain embraced the enchanting elfess, his tongue ruthlessly attacked her mouth and his hands assaulted her sensitive areas.
"Mnnnngghhh~"
Aelorian's body shuddered slightly each time Rain ran his tongue along her palate.
Even after the marvelous energy stopped flowing out of her, Rain didn't let go, continuing to savor this moment and exchange saliva. The movements of his hands also became more possessive.
Her pointed long ears seemed unable to get any redder and only occasionally moved.
*Crackle*
Suddenly, along with the loud sound, they felt the whole place shake.
'Damn it, why now?'
Rain cursed to himself, not letting go of the elf girl.
They were still in the very center of the rift that had been most affected by the loss of its master, so it was now rapidly collapsing.
'Should I let my doggy out to deal with this?'
'...No, the destruction of the rift has already attracted too much attention from the academy, so this will only reveal the fact that the Rift Master is still alive. Especially I still need to train it well before I can use it effectively.''
Rain reluctantly removed his tongue from her moist mouth and released her.
A bridge of sticky saliva remained between them as the elven beauty gulped air with a heavy breath, looking up at him with clouded eyes.
*Crackle*
Hearing that sound once more, Rain realized that time was short. So he grabbed Aelorian and they once again reached the spatial anomaly through which they could exit into the forest from where they had started this test.
As they traveled through the spatial anomaly, Aelorian clung to him like last time so that they wouldn't be accidentally separated. She had already recovered, but continued to remain silent and avoid meeting his gaze.
After they passed through the spatial anomaly and entered the forest, she quickly unhooked herself from him and stiffly walked forward with reddened ears.
At this time, Rain once again checked the condition of his body. Despite the grueling battle just half an hour ago, his body was in perfect shape now, just as it had been before their battle.
No, he felt even better now!
It wasn't just because he had just tasted a new, long-coveted dish, but also because his body itself was at the peak of vitality and he was full of energy.
'Wow, what did she do? The effect is unbelievable.'
[Since there were no elves in your homeworld, you might not know, but of all races, elves are the closest to nature and have a high compatibility with it from birth, and can sense its life force very subtly. You see where I'm going with this, don't you?]
'That our first time should be in nature?'
[...no]
After a while, the system did get her thoughts together and gave an explanation.
[Because of their connection to nature, they can control life energy, allowing them to perform miracles beyond the reach of any potions. Of course, that doesn't mean they can do this all the time. Usually they gradually, drop by drop, gather this energy while being in resonance with nature. But after this time, I'm afraid you've already sucked it all out...]
Feeling as if he was being praised for the accomplishment, Rain nodded his head.
'I can definitely be proud of myself.'
[Actually, yes. Normally, humans can't absorb this energy effectively. But your body not only received and absorbed it, it was like a bottomless well that couldn't get enough. Now your body has a lot more life energy than normal, which is why you feel so good.]
'Since I have such a good compatibility with this energy, does that mean I'm also a great lover of nature?'
Rain looked at the swaying elven hips in front of him.
'Yes, there's nothing like nature...'
Since they had just finished a major battle, they were now in no hurry to go anywhere and were calmly walking through the forest. As Rain observed his surroundings, he thought about something.
'By the way, is such close contact mandatory for life transfer?'
Rain was glad he had the opportunity to explore the mouth of this elven princess, but it was interesting to know the answer to that question.
[...as far as I know, no.]
A smirk appeared on Rain's face as he looked at Aelorian, who was still walking forward a bit stiffly, occasionally rubbing her hair with her fingers.
As if sensing the stare, Aelorian said without turning around, trying to put as much strength into her voice as she could.
"J-just so you know, I didn't do it b-because I wanted to. I was just returning the favor for saving me. So don't get any ideas."
Immediately afterward, Rain's serious voice reached her.
"Returning the favor for saving? Then there's a problem here."
"P-problem?"
Aelorian didn't know why, but a small sadness settled in her heart.
'Did he want something else? Sure, I could have given him a couple of good items for saving me, but given the situation ... and his lustfulness, I thought that was the best option...'
'And that was my first kiss...'
His next words, however, quickly changed her mood.
"I definitely remember saving you twice, but why did I only get one kiss?"
The sadness in her heart was instantly washed away, but along with it came irritation. She couldn't help but turn and stare into his shameless face.
He had already taken more than he was entitled to, and he hadn't left a single untouched corner in her mouth, but he still couldn't get enough?!
How shameless and greedy could this man be?!
Rain shook his head regretfully.
"I feel tricked. Shouldn't you, as a princess, set a good example for your race? I don't mind if you do something more..."
Rain didn't finish his sentence, continuing to look at her with a meaningful smile.
Aelorian didn't answer anything and quickly turned away to hide her red face, but she was still given away by her red ears that moved from time to time...
At her reaction, Rain couldn't hide a satisfied smile.
'Don't worry, you'll definitely pay back your debt soon, down to the last percent. After all, I always collect my debts… and this time I'll do it in nature, if possible.'
In this awkward silence for Aelorian, they continued on their way. Soon, however, something caught her attention and saved her from this awkward position.
"What?! We didn't get a single point for that monster?!"
She checked her bracelet in disbelief, the number on it being the same as it had been before their encounter with this monster.
Judging from Rain's behavior, Aelorian had already realized that he had defeated that monster. And considering the monster's strength, they should have been given a pile of points for it, but then why didn't the number of points change at all?
At the sight of the elf girl shaking the bracelet in confusion, trying to figure out what the problem was, while blaming the academy for everything, Rain couldn't help but laugh.
The Rift Master was not originally registered as the kind of monster that could be defeated, so per se there was no points reward for it.
Therefore, regardless of the outcome of their battle, they would have gotten no points either way.
'Anyway, today we have the first place in the rankings. As for tomorrow... '
Rain shifted his gaze to the sky.
Through the sheer number of powerful swirls, cracks were spreading across the sky, growing larger and larger with each passing second.
The sun was now emitting a chaotic light as well, as if ready to split into many small pieces at any moment.
And all of this was complemented by the constant roar of monsters on all sides.
The rift world couldn't exist without its core and gradually collapsed, starting with the things that took the most energy to maintain.
'It's about time to head home and check out my prey.'
Rain licked his lips, anticipating this moment.

AFTER STEALING HERO'S MOTHER, I REINCARNATED IN THE FANTASY WORLD!C51: Cale's sister's confusion
In one of the academy's offices.
A woman in strict business clothes stood in front of the desk where Wallace, a middle-aged man who was the academy's vice principal and her direct superior, was sitting. He was now hurriedly sorting through the papers on the desk.
At this moment, many people in the academy were beyond alarmed, because due to the unforeseen disturbances in the rift, it was decided to end the first part of the test and deal with the mass evacuation of students from the rift.
Unfortunately, from the moment the core of the rift suddenly disappeared, they lost control of both the rift and all the functions of the bracelets, making it impossible to automatically retrieve the students from there. Therefore, the academy had to go to great lengths to get all the students back safely.
Because of this, they had to cancel the second part of the test, which was supposed to test the students' personal strength through one-on-one fights, and reschedule it.
Noticing that Wallace had taken his gaze off the papers and was looking at her, Audrey gave the report she had come here for.
"We successfully pulled the last person out of the rift half an hour ago. No one was hurt except for one student."
"What? How could someone get hurt!? We definitely did our best to make sure such a thing wouldn't happen!"
Wallace clenched his fists in indignation, glaring at the woman in front of him. Perhaps because of his short stature or the fact that he was now sitting, but his gaze fell on her breasts. Taking a deep breath, he calmed himself and placed his hands on the table, regaining his serious manner of speech.
"Which student was the one who was hurt?"
"One of the students in the Elite Class, Cale."
A few drops of sweat appeared on the middle-aged man's face when he heard about the Elite Class, but after hearing the student's name and not remembering anyone with that name, he exhaled and asked in a more carefree manner.
"And what happened to him?"
"You see, the last time the rift shook violently, he–"
"Yes, the rift was unexpectedly shaken while he was fighting monsters and he got hurt by them. It's a typical situation, so you don't have to waste my time."
Wallace quickly lost interest in her words and waved for her to leave before returning to looking at the papers on the desk. But he was soon distracted again by the voice of the woman in front of him.
"It's not quite like that, sir. He wasn't hurt by the monsters. He was squashed by his partner."
Wallace froze and raised his eyes to the woman in front of him, who kept a serious expression on her face.
"...what?"
Seeing that he didn't understand her, Audrey hastily explained.
"His partner, Donat, is from the Edodes family, and as you know because of their bloodline their weight is 'slightly' above the norm."
The man set the papers aside and rubbed his temples.
"Alright, give him a good compensation and give him some help to recover as soon as possible. I don't want another stain on the academy's reputation, understand?"
He drilled his subordinate with a stern look.
"Of course, we've already checked his condition, but it seems to be... more of a psychological problem than a physical one."
Wallace's face became even more sullen, but brightened as he remembered something.
"By the way, how's Grey doing?"
Knowing that Grey was the vice principal's favorite, Audrey immediately told her about him.
"Gray did a great job with the test as always. He even helped us evacuate people from the rift at the end."
At these words, the vice principal's mood improved and he laughed.
"He is truly a hero among men! I believe that very soon he will go on stage and shine the brightest. His mother will be proud of him."
Having said that, Wallace got up from the table and, whistling happily under his breath, headed for the exit, not forgetting to give a last instruction.
"There's a couple papers on the desk that I haven't filled out yet, so be sure to finish them."
As soon as the door closed, Audrey looked at the five tall stacks of papers on the desk that her boss had 'carefully' left for her and sighed sadly, imagining how much work she had to do.
"He keeps dumping his job on me. As soon as I get promoted, that creep–"
Audrey stopped in mid-sentence because someone entered the office. She froze for a second, afraid that it was the vice principal and he had heard her words, but soon she let out a sigh of relief.
The woman who entered was wearing a pink shirt and a quite strict black skirt that highlighted all her curves. This image was complemented by a pair of black stockings that emphasized her long legs.
"You're rarely seen here, Amelia."
Said Audrey to the woman who entered.
"I can't say the same about you. Sometimes I feel like you live here."
With a sweet smile, Amelia walked over to her and hugged her, causing their breasts to come into a hard confrontation.
Hugging her friend back, Audrey shifted her gaze to the several stacks of papers on the desk with a helpless smile.
'It's not that far from the truth.'
"Anyway, why are you here? Is it because your brother got hurt?"
A flicker of concern flashed in Amelia's eyes and she replied with a note of regret.
"I've already checked on Cale and he seems to be doing better. And I've told him more than once that he should focus on increasing his strength instead of chasing skirts, but he doesn't hear me at all."
Amelia walked over to the table in the corner and, activating one of the magical devices, poured herself some tea. She took a slow sip, savoring the flavor, and pulled out a small bag. She took out a donut and carefully handed it to Audrey.
"Take it. I brought them for my brother, but for some reason he turned pale at the sight of them and flatly refused to eat them."
Audrey looked around and saw no one else, so she timidly took the donut. They ate in silence for a while, enjoying this moment of relaxation, before Amelia asked.
"Even though the test was interrupted, the academy decided to just make a ranking based on the points already scored for the first two days, right?"
Audrey nodded in response, continuing to eat her donut.
"And who took first place?"
Amelia asked with obvious anticipation in her voice.
"Winderline and the Elf Princess."
"Yes!"
A triumphant smile spread across Amelia's face and she literally jumped in place, clenching her fists.
"I knew this girl, Eliana, was capable of it."
With those words, Amelia pulled out a beautifully designed paper framed in golden patterns.
In addition to a lot of text, there were a couple runes engraved on it, and at the bottom, next to her signature, Ophelia's signature was written in beautiful handwriting.
It was a contract Amelia had made the day before with their academy principal during their argument. They had bet on their favorites, who they thought should take first place in the upcoming test.
Amelia still didn't know why Ophelia had suggested this bet, but it was completely in her favor and she saw no chance of losing, so she accepted it right away. Especially since what was at stake was something she had wanted for a long time.
'Finally that witch Ophelia will give it to me!'
With difficulty tearing her gaze away from the precious paper, Amelia looked at her friend's confused face.
"Why are you surprised? I told you a long time ago that even by Winderline standards Eliana has great potential and it's only a matter of time before she makes herself known."
A blissful smile spread across Amelia's face as she imagined something.
"I can't wait to see Ophelia's face when she has to admit defeat. Maybe she'll even..."
Before Amelia could go too far in her fantasies, Audrey corrected her with complicated emotion.
"It wasn't her, it was her brother."
As soon as Amelia heard this, her face froze and the cup from her hands almost fell onto the contract in front of her.
"Say again, what did you say?"
"It wasn't the student Eliana, it was her brother, Rain."
"Are you sure... that this is accurate information?"
Unable to accept this, Amelia continued to ask.
"Yes, that's the information that all faculty members received."
Seeing her friend's serious face, Amelia realized she wasn't joking, so she quickly walked over to one of the racks. Using detection magic, she pulled out one of the students' admission forms from there.
Amelia opened it and stared at the image of the red-eyed young man for a full minute, as if trying to find something in him.
"I can't see anything special about him, except for that handsome face..."
Amelia muttered before her gaze fell on the contract in disbelief. There, a single name was written in Ophelia's beautiful handwriting across from Eliana's name.
'How could she be so sure he would win?'
Initially, Amelia had mistaken Ophelia's confidence in his victory for another of her whims, but now she realized there was something else behind it.
While Amelia was trying to realize what it could have been, cutely rubbing the ends of her shirt with her fingers, her friend's voice reached her.
"By the way, he was the reason that caused all the problems with the rift."
"He was even able to defeat 'It'?"
Amelia's eyebrows crept up and this time she stared at the image of the red-eyed young man even longer, until something unusual flashed in her eyes and a smile spread across her lips.
"Rain Winderline… interesting."
Muttering something to herself, Amelia took hasty steps out of the office.
Audrey looked at her and swallowed.
"Oh no, she got that look again. I hope she's not going to go to his house right now..."
Audrey slowly shifted her gaze to a form with a picture of a handsome young man left on the table.
"I'll pray for him to be okay."
°°°°
By this point, Rain had already made it back from the academy and was now sitting on the couch in his room.
But he was by no means calm and a cold drop of sweat ran down his face as he looked at the Rift Master who had just transformed into human form.
'What the fuck?'

AFTER STEALING HERO'S MOTHER, I REINCARNATED IN THE FANTASY WORLD!C52: New cute pet
15 minutes ago.
Rain had reached Winderline Manor and had just entered his room.
'Time to check on my cute pet.'
Not wanting to waste time, Rain used a single thought to release it from the system storage.
"...eat you!!"
Along with the appearance of the huge wolf in the room, the phrase it hadn't had time to finish last time came off its mouth.
'Those aren't the cutest words I could have heard.'
Rain thought as he continued to observe the Rift Master's behavior.
It looked around confused, wondering where they were.
Since it had been in the system storage where time stops all along, it looked to it as if it had been abruptly teleported from the rift to another location. But there was something that bothered it even more.
'Why can't I feel my rift?'
The Rift Master tried to sense it, but nothing was happening no matter how much it tried. It quickly realized that the answer had to be in the smirking man in front of it, so it was ready to growl something loud again, but it was determined.
"Silence."
The collar around its neck activated and an unknown force prevented it from uttering a sound.
Rain wasn't worried that someone might hear them, since he'd asked the system ahead of time to put a soundproof barrier around his room, just like the one he'd used with Liana. He just didn't particularly want to hear its arrogant yelling.
"We don't want to be heard, do we?"
Rain gently stroked its head.
"If you raise your voice one more time, I will silence you for the rest of your life."
When the monster reluctantly calmed down, still retaining murderous intent in its eyes, Rain removed the restraints from its voice.
"The world of your rift has been completely destroyed."
Rain said bluntly, seeing the question in its eyes.
Rain wasn't upset, as he knew it was too dangerous to leave it behind, as the academy already knew too much about the rift and had the ability to enter it.
But the huge wolf in front of him showed a completely different reaction. The young man's words made its eyes twitch, as if something in it had cracked.
'Have I now become a Rift Master without a rift?'
The rift to their race was the embodiment of their strength and power. As they supported and nourished the rift, so it supported and nourished them in return. And without it, the huge wolf felt it had lost a part of itself.
"You don't need to be upset, because with my help, you will create a new one that will be infinitely better than the old one."
Rain didn't like the terrain of the past rift anyway, so he was glad that he could now create his own world that would be perfectly suited to his wants and needs.
How cool was it to have his own mini world in which he was a master?
Rain realized that he would soon find out.
The monster ignored his words, simply staring blankly into the space in front of it.
An evil smirk appeared on the young man's lips.
'Yes, realize well what has happened, and renounce your past self to devote your whole self to serving me.'
Of course, these thoughts brought Rain a sense of satisfaction, but right now he had more important things to do.
'Nari, you said before that I could transform the Rift Master into humanoid form, but how do I do that?'
[While you were getting home, I modified the collar a bit and it can now make it take its humanoid form. All you have to do is wish it in your mind to do so.]
Nodding at the system's words, Rain looked at the Rift Master in front of him again.
'Before the transformation, I need to get rid of this.'
Rain reached out to the small wound in its neck and fumbled for a small shard of weaponry left there from its battle with Ophelia years ago. He grasped it tightly and pulled, but it didn't budge, and the Rift Master only growled quietly.
"Grrrrr..."
Rain grasped it again and pulled with all his strength. The veins in his arms swelled, but with his newfound life force, he felt no fatigue and was soon able to pull the shard out.
Rain tossed the loot into his storage ring without looking.
It might have been a superior artifact to the hero, but to Rain, compared to the Rift Master itself, it was nothing.
So his gaze remained fixed on his main prey for the day.
After the shard was removed, the monster let out a low growl, feeling relieved after many years, and the old wound on its body began to heal quickly. After a couple of seconds, it disappeared without a trace, as if it had never been there.
Feeling a surge of strength throughout its body, the Rift Master had the urge to attack the man again, but it was immediately stopped by an unknown force. It made it feel the presence of the collar around its neck once more, and it clenched its teeth.
It had only recently gotten rid of its past chains, but now it was bound by new, even stronger ones. And while at the sight of the past chains it realized that perhaps in a few centuries it could remove them, the strength of this collar it couldn't even fathom.
Although these restrictions, unlike before, did not bring it constant pain, its proud and free spirit still could not accept it.
Seeing its struggle, Rain nodded his head.
This collar was his most expensive purchase, but Rain was completely happy with its control effects.
Of course, this item only allowed him to give the simplest of commands and Rain couldn't order it to do anything complicated, otherwise he simply wouldn't have enough steal points to buy it.
But that was enough, because he was still going to train the Rift Master well. And to do that, it would have to take a more suitable form.
Before it blasted the entire room with its movements from its internal struggle, Rain mentally ordered it to take humanoid form.
Just like the first time he put the collar on the monster, it emitted a blinding light that flooded the entire room.
This time Rain kept his eyes open and watched as the silhouette of the huge wolf changed and became smaller. After a few seconds, the silhouette began to take on a human shape.
At this moment, a cold drop of sweat protruded on Rain's forehead.
'What the fuck?'
But it wasn't due to its new appearance, it was due to a message popping up in front of Rain that didn't belong to the system.
[Warning! One of the story's objects has been forcibly altered.]
[The ultimate fate of the object cannot be calculated…]
[Story deviates from original path.]
[Searching for errors that changed the course of story...]
Time seemed to stop as Rain stared breathlessly at the flashing line. But after an unknown amount of time, a new message appeared in front of him.
[Error not found.]
Seeing that this time it didn't end up like his last encounter with the Will of the World, Rain was relieved.
'But why did it only come up now?'
[What you just saw happens when you alter the original source story or the fates of those involved too much. Saving someone who was bound to die is one of those cases. But as I said, you're in no danger as long as I'm with you.]
'So my saving the Rift Master has had a much greater impact on this world than I originally thought.'
This caused him to sneer at the World's Will.
'Then continue to watch in silence as I continue to take everything for myself.'
With these thoughts, Rain shifted his gaze to the woman in front of him, who was silently baring her fangs at him.
Her differences from ordinary humans were immediately apparent: a pair of pointed fangs in her mouth, fluffy ears, and a nimble tail. And her dark hair, which occasionally shimmered with a hint of polar glow, made her even more unique.
'This form of hers is perfect for my plans...'
But it also piqued his curiosity.
"You've been a woman all this time?"
She didn't answer his question and planned to ignore it completely, but that's when the collar activated.
[A pet can't ignore its master's questions.]
The words of one of the rules imposed on her popped into her head.
"I'm not a pet! Khngghh!"
An electric shock ran through her body. After a while, she couldn't take it anymore, and she answered reluctantly.
"We don't have a gender, but judged by your human standards, I'm a woman."
She pointed to the two soft bulges on her chest while maintaining a disgruntled expression.
Assessing her massive assets once more, Rain confirmed his assumption.
'She'd look perfect in a maid's outfit.'
But even though she was now human-like, her eyes were still arrogant and unruly, and contempt read in her gaze at him.
'That won't do. This puppy needs to know who her new master is.'
Rain's eyes flashed purple as he leaned in close to her soft fluffy ears so she could catch every word he said.
"Do you remember how during the fight you threatened to eat me? Well, now I'm going to do the same to you."
Those sweet words made her feel a discharge run through her body.

AFTER STEALING HERO'S MOTHER, I REINCARNATED IN THE FANTASY WORLD!C53: Does it really feel that good? (R-18)
Feeling a charge run through her body, the meaning of his words came to Lady Wolf.
'Is he going to eat me?'
She was confused at first, but quickly managed to pull herself together.
"Are you going to eat me? Come on, I'm not afraid to die!"
She proudly stuck out her already large breasts.
There was really no fear in her eyes, only a slight regret that she never got her revenge on Ophelia and returned to her original home.
Rain only shook his head in response.
"Who says I'm going to kill you? I don't need to do anything so useless, for I have my own ways of eating you."
"Your ways–?"
Rain, in one easy motion, placed the confused girl in his lap with her back to him. Despite her weighty assets, her body didn't feel heavy.
Rain had already realized that if even Ophelia with her immense power couldn't subdue her, it was useless to try to do so with brute force.
'But if Ophelia couldn't do it, it just means her approach was wrong.'
So Rain decided to take a different route and give her something she had never experienced before. His hands immediately moved down to her crotch, which immediately gave him a pleasant surprise.
'I wasn't expecting much since she's not fully human, but it's perfectly smooth here, without a single hair.'
Rain's eyes flashed purple as he once again activated the Eyes of Endless Lust. He ran his fingers over her tender pussy lips as if assessing them. His other hand moved down to her full breast, squeezing it as he ran his tongue along her neck.
Lady Wolf had no fear of death, but this unknown tingling sensation in her body made her slightly afraid.
"Mhhhhhhhmm"
Her body, regardless of her desires, responded to his touch and slowly but surely grew hotter.
Her transformation was not just an outward change in appearance, it was a complete transformation, which meant she, like any woman, had weaknesses and sensitivities.
And Rain was happy to take advantage of them.
"Mhnnnnnn~"
Each of his touches made a pleasant warmth spread through her body, but her instincts told her that she must not give in to this or she would never be able to get out of it.
She immediately grabbed his hand and tried to move it away from that spot, but she couldn't even move it a millimeter.
Though she was still stronger than humans in this form, she no longer had her former incredible strength. And the collar safely suppressed the last vestiges of strength she had shown toward him.
"Mnnnggghhh~❤️"
She kept trying with her hand to push his shameless hand away from her most intimate place, while trying to stifle the moans coming out of her mouth.
This behavior amused Rain.
"Does it really feel that good?"
"No!"
Immediately her sharp reply followed.
[A pet can't lie to her master.]
The collar activated and the words popped back into her head.
"I'm not a pet– Akhmmm~?!"
A current ran through her body again, but this time it didn't go through it, instead it traveled to her lower body, which only made her body heat up more.
"Nggghhhh❤️~"
A quiet and hot moan escaped her mouth and then she closed it abruptly, not wanting to continue making those humiliating sounds.
"Your upper lips should take an example from your lower lips and be more honest."
Holding that stubborn girl on his lap, Rain realized that he hadn't yet checked her status after her transformation.
__________________________
[Name: Sives Raxue]
[Age: 187]
[Titles: Ruler of the starless sky]
[Cultivation: Inner Balance Expert(human form) Harmony Weaver(true form)]
[Talent: S]
[Bloodline: Wanderer of the Cosmic Void - Level III (95%) (true form)]
[Attitude: Why are his fingers so hot?]
[Affection: -20]
__________________________
Perhaps because he had become her master, but now the information in her status wasn't hidden behind question marks and he could see all of it.
Rain immediately noticed that after she lost her rift, her cultivation had dropped by an entire stage and she should be in a weakened state right now.
Moreover, once she transformed into human form, indicators of her attitude and affection became available.
'Sives? That's a pretty name.'
Caressing her pink pussy with his fingers, which was already glistening from the liquid, Rain moved closer to her twitching ears.
"You have a very cute pussy, Lady Sives."
The words made her eyes widen in disbelief.
"How did you...?"
Unlike humans, a name meant much more to their race and they did not reveal it to anyone, keeping it secret. The only ones who knew their true name were either their parents or their partner.
Sives' body relaxed for a second in surprise, which Rain immediately took advantage of by pushing two of his fingers into her tight pussy.
"Nghhhaaaa❤️!!!"
When she felt something enter her, Sives's body trembled and she grabbed his arm to steady herself. But she still managed to turn her head and face him with confused eyes.
"H-how did you know my name?"
"That's something you'd better ask your mother about."
Rain grinned wickedly and plunged his fingers even deeper into her narrow walls.
"Ammmmhng!~... Haaaaa~❤️"
Sives didn't have time to think about what Rain said because his movements inside her became more active and her body eagerly responded to them with moans.
*Slick*
His two fingers were already slippery and sticky from her juices and were moving in and out of her tight hole with increasing confidence, stretching her in the process.
*Squelch*
Her slippery walls squeezed him hard, unprepared for such stimulation. Clear liquid dripped down her pussy, dripping onto his legs.
"Mhhhhmmm❤️~"
Her body grew more fidgety as she wriggled in his lap, unconsciously rubbing her ass against his gradually swelling cock.
To distract herself from the growing itch below, Sives decided to speak first.
"W-what do you really want from me?"
Finally hearing that she had asked the right question, Rain showed a satisfied smile and said to himself.
'System, buy a maid costume right now.'

AFTER STEALING HERO'S MOTHER, I REINCARNATED IN THE FANTASY WORLD!C54: Wet Deal (R-18)
Giving orders to the system, Rain turned to the wolfgirl who was still wriggling in his lap.
"It's simple. I want you to obey me completely and follow all my orders without question."
Her face twisted as she bared her fangs.
"You inferior creature!..."
"Hunnggghhh❤️~"
"...Inferior creature that's causing you to moan so loudly right now."
Without any anger Rain continued her words, smirking at her futile attempts to remain nonchalant.
Sives felt like she had no control over this body that was sinking into an abyss of pleasure at his hands without her knowledge.
"Mhhhhhaaaa~.... Nnnggghhh❤️!"
His warm breath tickled her ears as one of his hands kept teasing her erect nipples.
Her body continued to heat up from the way he squeezed and twisted her nipples, and her pussy tingled more and more from his fingers, as if begging for more. Sives clenched her fists in helplessness.
'Just like during our battle, he still continues to attack the weakest points as well...'
Rain scratched with his nail at her tender pink nipple, which was so much at odds with her violent temper.
"Ahhhhmmmmmm~❤️~"
The squelching sounds intensified and the room was filled with the lusty melody of her moans.
Sives couldn't deny that her body was receiving immense pleasure, and the juices of her pussy, already dripping unimpeded onto the floor, confirmed it.
"...okay, if you help me get revenge on Ophelia... then I'm willing to fulfill one request of yours a month... of course, it must be within reasonable limits and... mmnnhhh~ be approved by me."
The wolfgirl could barely utter those words, all the while being interrupted by traitorous sweet moans from her mouth. Rain's actions also stopped suddenly, bringing her long-awaited relief.
'I never thought I'd offer such a thing to a human, but if it helps me–'
"HNNGGHHAAAA❤️❤️!!!"
Sives felt a strong discharge run through her body, causing her to arch her back unusually hard, and goosebumps ran across her skin.
*Squirt*
Her eyes twitched upward, and an unknown euphoria overtook her body as the clear liquid squirted from her hole.
"You have very sensitive ears~"
Rain said, letting go of the ear he'd just bitten. Then his voice suddenly lost all its playfulness and became colder.
"But you still don't seem to understand your position. My words were a mere formality, for you are already in my power."
Said Rain as he continued to rub her pussy, prolonging her orgasm.
Sives stared hazy-eyed at her legs, which still couldn't stop shaking as a stream of clear liquid squirted out of her.
'This body is too weak... and can't resist him at all.'
Rain looked at her as she clenched her legs together, trying in vain to control her body and the pleasure running through it.
'Well, now that she's realized her situation and that there's no way she can change it on her own, it's time to give her some hope she can cling to.'
"Two years. If you do everything I say, in two years I'll take that collar off you."
Waves of pleasure were still echoing in her head when she heard words she never expected to hear.
While Sives didn't have any magic that could discern lies, she naturally had very sharp instincts that allowed her to almost always accurately determine if a person was lying, even if that person used spells to hide it.
And at the moment they were telling her one thing - his words were true.
Those instincts had saved her life more than once, so she trusted them, but this time she couldn't question the feelings.
'I'm incredibly strong and powerful, what's the point of him letting me go?'
"Why should I believe you?"
"You can disbelieve me and just accept the fact that you will spend the next eternity serving me. Sounds reassuring, doesn't it?"
Lazily, Rain replied and slid his hand down to her small clit again.
"Ngggggghhhh❤️"
Rain's words were indeed true. He'd never considered the collar as a primary means of controlling her, and to him it was only a temporary solution.
Although the collar already gave him control over her body and actions, Rain wanted more, he wanted to get her soul, her mind and everything she owned, down to every bit of her body.
He wanted absolute loyalty that didn't depend on a collar or other external factors. After all, there was no one more reliable than himself.
"Mhhhhhaaaaaa~❤️"
Sives moaned helplessly, feeling his brazen fingers stretch her tight hole again while another of his rough fingers played with her very sensitive clit, giving her no rest.
'If I had known it would turn out like this, I wouldn't have even fought him.'
But now it was too late for regrets, and she realized that she could not escape from the clutches of this villain. So she could only accept his offer, suppress her pride, and console herself with the fact that these two years were nothing compared to the rest of her life.
"Promise me... that exactly two years from now and not a second later, you will remove this collar from me."
Her sensitive eyes watched him, ready to catch the tiniest lie in his words. But when Sives sensed nothing of the sort from his next words, she relaxed.
"I promise."
Rain said with a warm smile.
'I won't hesitate to do it, because by the time that day comes... you will no longer be able to live without me and the pleasure I can give you.'
A satisfied smirk adorned his face as he turned to her.
"In honor of the occasion, I have a gift for you."
With those words, an outfit appeared in his hands.
Sives stared at it, unblinking.
"Is that a… maid costume?"
Hearing her words, Rain laughed out loud as if she was talking nonsense.
"Of course not."
Looking at the laughing young man, Sives was relieved.
'Okay, even he wouldn't be cruel enough to humiliate me by dressing me in a human servant outfit...'
"This is YOUR personal maid costume."
His cheerful voice came through, correcting her.
Sives' little fists clenched as she promised herself.
'As soon as he lets me go, I'll be the first thing to tear him apart.'
"Do you need help wearing that?"
Asked Rain still holding the outfit in his hands, as if wondering why she was looking at him so angrily.
"I'll do it myself."
She snatched it out of his hands and with a slight tremor in her legs rose from his lap.
While she was putting on the maid costume, she messed up a couple times, which looked extremely funny, but she still managed to get it on correctly in the end.
She then stared at Rain with a frown, which in this outfit only made her more charming.
"Just as I thought, you look great in it. But... what are you going to do with it?"
Rain pointed his finger somewhere.
Sives followed his finger and saw the clear liquid that flooded the floor of his room. She frowned, staring at the wet floor, not knowing who had done it until the realization came to her that it was her...
"It's not polite to do such a thing right in your master's room."
Rain shook his head.
"It seems that although you have become human-like, you still lack manners. Fortunately, I have enough patience to put all my 'manners' into you."
Sives clenched her fangs, wanting to growl at him.
'You were the one who made me do it!'
But at that moment, Rain stopped shaking his head and a joyful expression appeared on his face.
"I may have a way you can make it up to me."
*Crackle*
The sound of tearing fabric rang through the room.
Hearing this, Sives immediately looked at its source and her gaze froze on his pants, which were currently cracking violently as something inside them bulged and tried to break free.
*Gulp*
