Chapitre 195: Hayashi Honoka
As Alex sat there in corner releasing a do not approach aura, the ceremony continued.
Soon, Kai and Honoka both appeared looking very handsome and beautiful.
Their beauty only matched by dragons and phoenixes in the legend as they gracefully made their way to the ceremony stage.
Honoka was wearing a white one piece long marriage dress with a long slit on one side showing off her beautiful and shapely leg and thigh.
The dress hugged her seductive mouth watering curves perfectly.
Many young people in the ceremony had their eyes glued to Honoka's mesmerizing fairy like face which was adorned with a gentle smile as she walked hand in hand with her to he husband.
Kai on the other hand was an image of handsomeness and aloofness. She was wearing an elegant purple suit.
Not everyone was able to see the real Kai, as Alex had done an illusion magic on her hiding what really made Kai even more attractive than the nymph she was marrying.
Only Alex could see her suit stretching tight to cover her big curves. Making him look forward to fucking this women who had a heroic expression on her face right now.
The priest on the stage looked at Kai and Honoka with wise and kind eyes.
He addressed everyone briefly stating that Kai and Honoka will now be bound by oaths of love and some bullshit...
Then came the ring ceremony.
Kaede and Hoshino wearing twin red dresses walked upon the red carpet.
The long hem of their dresses moved behind them forcing everyone to look at these young beauties again and again.
Many young men from influential families felt their heart beat racing just from the sight of their feminine charms and womely beauty.
Hoshino and Kaede were like dream girls of every young man in Sakura country. Princesses of two behemoth Clans, two stars beyond their reaches.
While everyone had their gazes stolen by them, Hoshino and Kaede each carried a small box on beautifully carved plates.
Gentle smiles adorned their lips as they soon came before the stage.
Kai took a box from Kaede after giving a loving pat to her head, making everyone understand how loved this Princess was.
Honoka also took the box while not sparing another glance to her sister who was already brainwashed by a Player.
But, Hoshino didn't show any discomfort as she stood behind Honoka just like Kaede stood behind her 'father'.
Soon, Kai knelt on one knee and took Honoka's delicate hand in hers.
She mischievously caressed Honoka's fingers making the bride blush slightly, making everyone have a gentle and heartful smile on their lips.
They felt that these people really had a good relationship which was actually not that normal in aristocracy where arranged marriages were thrown everywhere.
But, of course everything changes when the groom is a national crush.
After few seconds of teasing Kai pushed the ring chosen by Alex on Honoka's ring finger with a loving and gentle expression.
Kai would have never been able to make such an expression before, but after falling for Alex she unconsciously started doing all of these feminine acts.
Honoka as well happily looked at the ring which was given to her by her husband.
Her husband had gotten it from Alex and it was a kind of restriction ring which would stop the wearer from using any kind of space related spells and techniques.
Poor Honoka didn't know this and her trust in Kai stopped her from checking the ring thoroughly.
She then happily made Kai wear her ring.
After doing this she subconsciously blushed knowing what was to come next.
A kiss.
It was going to be her first kiss...
Honoka was looking forward to it.
But--
" You may now take the bride, " The priest said with a cheerful voice.
But, under the mask of cheerfullness he was sweating buckets.
He was told to skip the kiss.
In Sakura Country's tradition after ring wearing, both groom and bride would kiss.
Then groom was supposed to carry the bride to his room and then... Close the door and fuck.
Yeah.
But, Honoka who was shocked seeing priest effortlessly skipping the routine, glared at the priest feeling slightly disappointed.
Poor priest was of course killed soon after.
Honoka would have done it normally, but Kai had already managed it.
Kai then looked at Honoka with a serene expression.
She moved her hand towards Honoka.
Honoka like a noble lady took Kai's hand and waited for him to carry her.
Kai gently picked her up forcing Honoka to circle her hand around Kai's back.
Everyone looked at the scene heartfully as the groom and bride disappeared in their room.
After that started the real party.
People started moving here and there.
Young ladies like Hoshino and Kaede had many of their admirers surrounding them.
Trying to flatter them.
Even Ai who was wearing a dashing and sexy purple dress stood out in the party as she was surrounded by many young men. Some were even younger than her.
Yumino as well was in the Party as the Aizawa Family Head and she could be seen talking with some businessmen.
But, after every few seconds she would have her eyes trailing in Alex's direction trying to catch glimpses of his handsome face.
Alex as well was soon surrounded by many young girls from different families and even Hayashi and Kageyama Clan's unmarried ladies surrounded him.
Most of them hoping to make a space in his harem as his concubine or even one night stand worked.
Arisu was so overwhelmed by this all, that she stuck to Alex like a glue. She cutely glared at these women as if trying to show them that Alex belonged to her.
But, her glares were useless. Those women didn't even look at her, as they thought that she was just a sidekick of Alex.
But, Alex got out of the crowd after denying their flattery.
He would fuck them for sure, but not right now.
He had a more important bitch to tame.
" Let's go. I'll drop you home, " Alex said to Arisu while gently holding her hands.
" Ah. Yes, " Arisu blushed at Alex's gentle smile.
She couldn't believe that Alex was this popular but he still stuck with a useless girl like her.
She started feeling that she didn't deserve Alex by her side when women more important and beautiful than her were ready to be his.
Hoshino and Kaede who saw Alex leaving, threw away their boot lickers and ran to Alex.
They wanted to at least share a sentence with him, before he left.
But, they weren't lucky enough as Alex left with Arisu as if his house was on fire.
Once inside the car, he started it at full speed towards Arisu's pris- home.
There he threw her in it and parked his car inside the parking.
He then teleported back to where Kai and Honoka right now were.
Alex adjusted his suit and checked his posture for the dramatic entrance.
He slowly pushed open the door.
Inside the room, Kai heard the sound of door clicking open.
She sighed in relief.
She now didn't need to keep up this facade anymore.
In last few months, she had come close to Honoka.
She found out that Honoka was a very pure girl, who dreamed about a good and normal life.
But, her responsibilities forced her to be someone she really wasn't.
But, with Kai she slowly opened up and now Kai didn't want to force her anymore.
She knew that brainwashing Honoka was wrong. But, that was the best for her...
Honoka who was talking cheerfully with Kai as well heard the door clicking.
She looked at the door dubiously, not knowing who else had the key to the room.
She looked back at Kai with a questioning look.
But, was stunned to find an apologetic expression on her husband's face.
" I'm sorry, " Kai said, this time not hiding her feminine voice.
She as well stopped the illusion that kept her looks male-like.
As the illusion disappeared in front of Honoka sat a graceful beauty who was not any lesser beautiful than herself may be only more beautiful than her.
Kai's curves now visibly stuck out to her suit, stretching them clearly in Honoka's eyes.
Kai's face also turned gentle and more feminine with beautiful emerald like eyes, jewel like ears and slightly sharp nose which only accompanied her beauty more.
Honoka was now too shocked to even look behind her, as she just kept staring at Kai with her mouth open.
The things silently clicked in her mind, Honoka was a smart women, it didn't take much for her to come to a strong conclusion.
Honoka's lips shuddered slightly, as next moment the words she wanted to say stopped in her throat.
" I'm sorry Honoka... I shouldn't have lied... But, this is for the b--"
" Shut up, she is trying to kill herself! " Alex yelled in a shock.
He never thought that this bitch will try to kill herself.
He literally teleported to Honoka's side.
Her skin was visibly going pale, the blood vessels around her eyes, mouths, nose and ears started being visible.
" She is using the mana she stored in her body to channel it to her vitals and stop blood flow to them, " Alex said.
" W-Wha- W-What should we do?! " Kai as well panicked. She didn't want Honoka to die otherwise she will never be able to forgive herself.
Or...
May be it was better to let her die...
As soon as this thought came to Kai's mind, it kept bugging her.
The resolute expression that Honoka had for an only moment after she revealed the truth kept coming inside her mind.
She felt that may be, Honoka won't wish to be brainwashed.
She even tried to kill herself instead of being Alex's.
For someone like Kai, becoming Alex's was the greatest honor for her.
But, in Honoka's case it was different.
She was pure and innocent...
" A-Alex, " Kai hesitantly held Alex's hand who was busy saving Honoka's life.
" What is it? " He asked without looking back.
" Let her die... Please... " She begged as a tear slipped down her eye for the very first time after a long time.
Honoka really believed in her...
She didn't want to betray her, but going against Alex was hard. It was as if her soul was chastising her for even thinking something that Alex didn't want.
Alex who was doing something to Honoka, stopped.
He sighed while not looking at Kai and started his work again.
Kai who saw this clenched her fists feeling slightly sad and disappointed, but that was only for a moment as those feelings disappeared soon.
This was the power of brainwashing magic. No one could go against it. Not even one of the mightiest women in a century.
* * * *
After few hours...
Honoka woke up with a weary expression.
She had a confused frown on her face in the start.
But, then memories of what happened just now came back.
She touched her face, asking loudly with a surprised expression, " I'm alive? "
" Yeah. You definitely are, " A gentle masculine voice echoed in her ears from the side.
Honoka looked in that direction and was surprised to see Alex there, looking at her with an amused smile.
Kai was standing behind him now in a beautiful navy blue royal gown.
She looked at Honoka with a guilty expression.
Honoka as soon as saw Alex tried to kill herself again, but she found out that she couldn't.
" I stopped your mana channels. It was mandatory to save you. They will go back to normal in a day. Then you can kill yourself for all you want, " Alex said with a chuckle.
" You didn't do anything to me? " Honoka asked warily.
She knew that a Player's words couldn't be trusted. May be he had some plans?
" I didn't. I've no specific interest in you when I have so many women, " Alex lied through his teeth.
He continued, " So, from now on just stay away from my matters and don't interfere with them. You can live your life in one corner of this World. Until you don't come to me, I won't interfere with your life. "
" I see, " Honoka said.
She knew that she wasn't brainwashed. Because she wasn't feeling any attraction towards Alex.
Yes he was handsome. Even more so than previous Kai may be, but still she knew that she held no romantic feelings or reverence for him right now.
" Why did you let me go? You could have easily made me your slave. If you could stop me from dying, " Honoka asked, she wanted to know this.
" She stopped me, " Alex said pointing at Kai, " And... I just didn't want her to be disappointed in her Master, " He easily lied again as he looked at Kai with a loving expression which startled Honoka.
She thought that may be Alex loved Kai...
Kai's expression as well turned rosy as soon as she heard this.
She shyly looked at Alex with a lovestruck and grateful gaze which made Honoka feel weird.
She looked at Kai with a complicated expression.
She knew how hard it was for a brainwashed women to go against the Player...
" Honoka... " Kai wanted to say something.
But, was stopped by Honoka, " So, you lied again and again... "
" I'm sorry... "
" Is my mom already brainwashed? "
" I'm sorry... "
" It's not her faul--"
" I didn't ask you, " Honoka stopped Alex midway, not knowing how much of a petty person he was...
" So, was I just a joke in your eyes? " Honoka snorted.
" No... " Kai said wordless.
" I loved you... I dreamed of a future together... With you... " Honoka said as tears slowly glistened in her eyes.
" Honoka... " Kai muttered with a guilty expression.
After that Honoka started crying, her tears fell down non-stop making Kai not know what to do.
Alex sighed.
He stood up and patted Kai's shoulder like a bro and said, " Cheer her up somehow. "
" How? " She asked.
" That's for you to find, " Alex said and took his leave.
" What a great way... " Alex sighed as soon as he came out of the room.
He tonight totally planned to make Honoka his.
But, he changed his mind when he saw her.
She was talented. Very talented.
Alex remembered his aunt Alia, who was similarly talented in water element.
In higher planes, people like Alia and Honoka were called irregulars.
They were the beings in lower realm planets with no mana flow, but had tremendous talent.
If a World is awakened normally them these people like Honoka and Alia will be the pillars for the rise of the World.
That's why, Alex didn't brainwash her...
The world he was currently in wasn't simple at all.
And a Irregular from this world was important.
He couldn't force her.
That's why Alex decided to take his sweet time, to slowly win over Honoka.
He now had another one in his catch list besides Arisu.
Alex sighed and made his way out.
He planned to now start dominating higher echelon families in Capital one by one.
The next one was Nakamura Family.
