"You crafted all of this by yourself?"
It was the first time for Marian to go in Ray's craft station; next to her was General Iri and three other vice generals, including Olivia, who had a liking for crafting.
After seeing how stardust was being crafted, Ray had changed the floor to topazes, and the ceiling was made out of jade stones; the obsidian monoliths had been replaced too with diamond ones.
The monoliths took the shape of two scythes, and in the middle where they connected, a silver monolith glowed with an enormous light.
"What is that thing?" Iri touched the surface of the monolith; its structure seemed so unfamiliar.
"It's a thought holder." Ray pointed at the other monoliths. "Think of it as the mother of rest; if this one, for example, wants to lock all magic in itself, the others will follow."
"How much did it cost..." A girl next to Olivia asked, "Although she was a vice general too, this was behind her wildest dreams."
"That's not what's important. Right now, the biggest problem is how to pull out her magic." Ray looked at Olivia; he hadn't seen her speaking the whole day. "Her magic is sound waves."
As a rare case, she had inherited the weaker magic of her mother, with her rank being S rank; however, due to her sudden talent in close-range combat, General Hawk decided to reconsider his thoughts about her.
Hence why Ray believed she was being possessed; her body didn't show the slightest sign of training, and her reactions to some detail couldn't escape Ray's eyes.
"I can pull out my own magic."
"Out of the question." Iri swung her hand; she had already been told by Ray about her. Dark chains locked her whole body. "She's only level 2?"
"Don't mind hurting her; Marian can heal her." Ray talked as he started to take out his shirt; the other two vice generals' faces became as red as a tomato.
With the eye of lust, he could see a kink of someone that he could use the best, for Iri it said "Gangbang" above her head, and for his son Vice General Raol, it said "Cuckold."
Marian gave Ray her power in mind and pointed at Olivia: "I have some unfinished business. Vice General Fairy, take me to your general."
After minutes only Ray, Iri, and his son remained in the room. "Don't pull out too much; her magic is weak, but I can work with it. Just a side note, it's going to get really warm in here."
With no care, Iri took out her uniform; with red lingerie, she sat in front of her, her curves were handmade by God.
"You go outside the monolith's range." Ray didn't mind using his title; his small bulge said all that Ray needed to know to take full control of him.
"Let's begin."
Ray first had to craft 10 sound wave crystals and after that 10 blood crystals. Iri'a chains pulled Olivia's magic out of her body into the formation; diamond monoliths didn't let them escape to the outside. Slowly the aura of her magic thickened.
Unlike his time crafting death crystals for Alexanderia, now he didn't need for the density of the crystals to change; his mind could harden the form of crystals at will.
In five minutes, the first one was crafted.
"Too fast..." Iri praised him; even her personal craft station took a week for a singular magic crystal. Her surprise grew as the time shortened with each one, with the last one barely taking two minutes.
Ray opened his eyes. Sweat covered his skin. "My proficiency with that kind of magic crystal just doubled. Not bad."
"What is your price, young man, if you want to join my harem?" Iri wanted him in her personal group, and she was ready to pay any price that he wanted.
Ray smirked, "Why would I join your harem? It's only level 9, and the rewards for rankings are just some magical crystals."
"What is the bonus for a harem level 10?" That had been on many people's minds since Ray had created his harem, but none of them had said anything, for Iri, with a level 9, got a 45% bonus to her base stats.
"100% bonus."
"Lie."
"You can think that way, but I can open up a spot for you if you want." His eyes turned to her son: "Your son can't join, unfortunately."
"Haha, what makes you think I would want to join your harem? I have 315 men at my own disposal."
Ray said with no hesitation, "Yeah, whatever. Let's continue."
The floor and the ceiling shone with a red glow. Ray didn't know what to do with them at first, but after many trials and failures, he had gotten the grasp of them.
With the aura of lust activated and his magic becoming denser in the air, his thoughts moved throughout monoliths, each one crafting a blood crystal.
Iri's eyes went wide from the sudden change; in under a minute, ten blood crystals were crafted. "Who is he even? Why do I feel so horny suddenly?"
"Raol, do you feel the same lust?"
"Yes, Mom. His magic in itself is intoxicating; I say be better to leave off as soon as possible."
Iri shook her head. "Tricks like this shouldn't work on me; I'm a general!"
It took some time for Ray to gather his different thoughts from each monolith; he deactivated the aura of lust and his magic in the air. "The ingredients are ready, but for the cube itself, it needs way more thoughts than I can produce, so I need you two's help."
Raol returned to their side. "How?"
"Simple, I will connect our minds; you just have to give me all of your extra thoughts, and it should take around 5 to 6 hours. There is no stopping once we start, so do anything if you want."
"Where is the bathroom?"
After Ray told them where to go, he sat alone on the cold floor.
"She's way too hot, but to fuck her, I need another piece." He smiled at the blood crystals floating in the air. "I think I know what to do."
