Chapter 176: The System Gets Suspiciously Helpful
The basement was still silent.
Damian looked at Linsey, Helena, Cynthia, and Evelyn, then suddenly remembered something important.
His eyes shifted slightly.
"Wait a damn minute."
After further observation, Damian had always known one strange rule about the system.
The [Villainess Breaker System] only accepted virgin women as valid multiplier targets.
At first, Damian had not cared too much. After all, that rule had always worked in his favor.
Now, however, the situation was different.
Linsey, Helena, Cynthia, and Evelyn had already reached maximum Favorability.
They were his followers now.
His secret faction.
His dangerous little [Forbidden Immortal Harem].
As a man, of course Damian’s thoughts began wandering in a very shameless direction.
He raised his head a little, and his expression suddenly became strangely serious.
"System, I know you only accept virgins as multiplier targets."
He glanced at the four women standing in front of him.
"But what if I do it with them?"
The system screen stayed silent for a breath.
Damian frowned.
"If they aren’t virgins anymore, what happens to their multipliers?"
A new line appeared.
---
[Why doesn’t the Host find out personally?]
---
Damian’s face stiffened. "Damn."
The four women looked at him in confusion.
Linsey tilted her head. "Master?"
Damian ignored her for a moment and stared at the screen.
"You said it like that... Will the multiplier disappear?"
The system responded again.
---
[Do not worry, Host. Just try. You will certainly like it.]
---
Damian’s frown deepened.
"Damn. Since when the hell did you start sounding like this?"
The system remained silent, pretending to be innocent.
Damian stared at the screen for several breaths, and now his curiosity was completely hooked.
If the system said he would like it, then something interesting would probably happen.
A slow, shameless grin appeared on his face.
The four women immediately became cautious.
Helena’s eyes tightened. "Why are you looking at us like that again?"
Cynthia’s fingers paused against her sleeve. "Master, did you think of something dangerous?"
Evelyn’s ears turned faintly red for some reason. "It is definitely something shameless."
Linsey, however, looked strangely excited. "Master?"
Damian looked at all four of them and grinned. "Come with me to your bedroom."
The basement instantly became quiet.
Helena’s face froze. "Our bedroom?"
Cynthia’s gentle expression cracked slightly. "Now?"
Evelyn looked away, her voice turning stiff. "Shameless bastard..."
Linsey’s eyes brightened instead. "All four of us?"
Damian lifted his chin with shameless confidence. "Yes."
He turned toward the exit, his robes fluttering slightly behind him. "Now that you’re all mine, I will place my own brand on you."
The four women stood frozen for a moment.
A second later, Linsey followed first.
Helena cursed under her breath but still moved.
Cynthia sighed softly, her cheeks faintly warm.
Evelyn hesitated the longest, then silently followed them.
Damian walked ahead with a satisfied expression.
"System, you better not disappoint me."
The system screen floated quietly beside him.
For some reason, Damian felt as if it was silently laughing.
---
Inside the women’s bedroom, the atmosphere became strangely quiet.
Linsey, Helena, Cynthia, and Evelyn stood near the bed, each carrying a different expression.
Linsey looked excited, her eyes bright with bold anticipation.
Helena looked tense, her shoulders stiff as if she was about to walk into battle instead of a bedroom.
Cynthia stayed calm on the surface, though her fingers lightly gripped her sleeve, betraying the nervousness beneath her gentle face.
Evelyn had already turned her face away, but the faint redness on her ears betrayed her completely.
Damian looked at the four of them, then rubbed his chin with a serious expression. "Now then, who should be first?"
Linsey immediately raised her hand. "Me."
The other three turned toward her at once.
Helena’s mouth twitched. "You didn’t even hesitate."
Linsey lifted her chin proudly. "Of course not. I was the one who suggested becoming Master’s concubine first."
Cynthia sighed softly. "That is not something you need to sound proud about."
Evelyn muttered coldly, "Shameless."
Damian nodded with satisfaction. "Good. Brave women deserve rewards."
Linsey stepped forward without fear, but the moment Damian held her hand and pulled her closer, her bold expression finally cracked a little.
Her breath caught.
"Master... be gentle," she whispered.
Damian’s grin softened slightly. "Don’t worry. I’m shameless, not a beast."
Linsey’s fingers trembled as Damian slowly helped loosen her outer robe. Piece by piece, the confident mask she had worn in the basement began to fall away with her clothes.
Helena looked away with a stiff face. "Damn it..."
Cynthia lowered her eyes, pretending to be calm, though the warmth on her cheeks clearly betrayed her.
Evelyn crossed her arms tightly, her icy expression looking far less stable than usual.
Damian glanced back at them and clicked his tongue. "What? You all agreed already. Don’t act like innocent rabbits now."
Linsey’s lips parted slightly, half nervous and half amused. "Master, you really don’t know how to make women feel less embarrassed."
Damian leaned closer and whispered, "That’s because embarrassed beauties are cute."
Linsey’s face turned red.
The lamp in the room dimmed.
Her voice trembled at first, then slowly softened as the night swallowed the rest.
By the time Damian was done with her, Linsey could barely move.
She lay against the pillow with flushed cheeks, messy hair, and trembling fingers, her earlier confidence completely gone.
Helena stared at her and swallowed. "Damn..."
Damian looked toward Helena next. "Your turn."
Helena’s body stiffened, but she still stepped forward. "Fine. I am not afraid at all."
Her words sounded brave.
Her hands, however, were not as steady as her mouth.
Damian slowly reached out and helped remove her heavy outer robe. Helena’s strong body trembled once, and her pride nearly cracked when his fingers brushed against her waist.
"Still not afraid?" Damian asked.
Helena clenched her teeth. "Shut up."
Damian chuckled. "Good. I like that stubborn look."
Her pride lasted longer than Linsey’s, but not by much. Her steady breathing soon broke apart, and the strong Helena, who could swing a greatsword without flinching, eventually gripped the sheet with one hand while trying to cover her weakened body with the other.
When it ended, she could only glare weakly at Damian from the bed. "You bastard..."
Damian looked satisfied. "A very energetic compliment."
