The Villainess With A Heroine Harem

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

As her understanding of the void formula had increased, Emilia had long since been able to tell when Cynthia entered and exited her isolated state. To her, it was now like a soft click directly inside her head, and since she had been waiting for just that, it was enough to stir her awake.

At this point, both due to Dixie's naughtiness and her own distraction, she had barely managed to get a few hours of sleep, but Emilia didn't mind. Aside from calming herself down and feeling pleasant, she didn't actually need to sleep, after all.

Cynthia yawned as she synced herself back with Emilia's senses. She vaguely felt that something wasn't right, but couldn't quite figure it out right away. "What have you been up to, Emilia? Aside from the disgusting mating stuff, leave that out, please. I don't think I can take it."

From what she remembered, Emilia had already taken care of the Porter family, sent Crystal back to her home, and dropped Michelle off at the warehouse in the outskirts to exact her vengeance as the girl saw fit. And then, she had headed off to finally take care of frustrations before she ended up doing something stupid because of it.

"After taking care of the porters? Not much. I did go shopping and bought a few things, but that's it." Emilia sighed as she ran her finger through Dixie's short hair, and the dark-haired girl unconsciously tried to nuzzle against her palm. Of course, since Cynthia had repeatedly demanded that she not mention the mating stuff, she left all that out.

It took her a moment, but Cynthia finally realized what was wrong. "W-Wait a minute… T-That's… Dixie?! Weren't you supposed to be with Justine? Why is it Dixie, this brainless bimbo?!"

Emilia frowned, even though it was Cynthia, she couldn't help but feel somewhat annoyed. "She came to me in time, and I realized that I would rather my first time be with her than Justine, so—"

The emerald-eyed girl felt like pulling out the hair off her scalp in rage. "Fuck! You monkey brain! Justine would have been better! In fact, anyone would have been better than this bimbo!"

If Emilia took in a few concubines to satisfy her primitive mating tendencies till she got over it, which she definitely would in the future, Cynthia could barely accept it. Whether it was a friend or acquaintance, she could ignore whom her partner decided to favor in bed.

However, if it was someone who already managed to worm deep into Emilia's heart despite Cynthia's numerous warnings… she couldn't help but be afraid.

She had bet everything on Emilia.

Her entire future, her cultivation, her world… everything.

Emilia was, in many ways, a perfect being. Molding her into the ultimate partner to save her from her dire straits was as easy as sleeping, and in that sense, Cynthia couldn't be happier.

When she had first noticed Emilia's soul, it had been far more perfect than it was now, though not as fully formed. She could have molded it as she liked, creating whatever being she wanted, and her pure, beautiful Emilia, would have always followed her will, as she had done with Maeve later.

Unfortunately, in her laziness, she had decided to just let her go through another life so she could take shape on her own.

As the perfect being took shape, she unfortunately couldn't grow without flaws as Cynthia had desired. A minor issue, she thought, it can easily be ironed out later.

One of her worst flaws was her softhearted nature towards her 'lovers'. This lonely soul sought companionship too greedily, and willingly offered her everything in return, never suspecting a betrayal. To an extent, this had been 'fixed' by Maeve, but the root of the flaw was still there.

And to make matters worse, the 'fix' also created another flaw in the form of a damaged psyche, and Emilia could no longer even imagine being betrayed by her lover without entering a crazed, irrational state.

Cynthia knew this fact very well, and she also knew the solution to this problem. Since her partner couldn't take betrayal from a lover again… it was best to never have a lover! Unfortunately, Emilia sought it too often and too passionately, and it soon became apparent that it would be impossible to prevent her from getting together with someone.

Cynthia had no idea what to do at all, and if not for that stupid heroine Crystal and the bimbo Dixie destroying their own opportunities themselves, Emilia would already have fallen in their hands.

No one could be closer to her partner's heart than herself!

Realizing the threat, she had actively encouraged Emilia to pursue Justine and 'reward' her properly, even going into isolation to assure her complete privacy. Plus, she really didn't think she could stomach the sight.

But what did she find when she came out? It was exactly that bimbo Dixie in bed with her partner!

Emilia couldn't help but roll her eyes, not understanding her system's thoughts at all. "What do you have against her? I really don't understand. The two of you have never talked. In fact… she doesn't even know you exist."

No matter how much she hated it, Cynthia could only grit her teeth. "What I hate is how simple your mind is! Mate mate mate, where are you with your missions, huh? Aside from the heroine hating the hero, you have accomplished nothing at all! You disgrace of a villainess! Absolutely shameful!"

Emilia flinched. "T-That's not true, and you know it! I-I'm well on the way to completing them all, it'll just take some time."

Cynthia scoffed. "I'm starting to think you really meant it when you said you will take your sweet time. Making friends and mating, enjoying your life. Meanwhile, all I can do is remain locked inside your head. Have you forgotten who saved your life?!"

Although Emilia's eyes got wet with unshed tears, she only gritted her teeth in rage. "It's six now… no, seven!"

Cynthia couldn't help but be confused, even forgetting about her rant. "Eh, w-what's that? What's with those numbers? Are you trying to change the topic? How villainous!"
