“Arr…”
Aether let out a soft groan as his eyes fluttered open, revealing a familiar grand ceiling above him. Blinking a few times to clear his vision, he quickly became aware of the warm, comforting weight pressing down on his chest.
Lowering his gaze, he saw the source of that weight—Raven, curled up on top of him, her arms wrapped tightly around his torso, even in sleep.
Her soft, rhythmic breathing and the faint sound of her snoring made his lips curve into a gentle smile. Even now, she refused to let go, clinging to him as if afraid he would disappear.
Chuckling softly, Aether reached up and ruffled her hair with his fingers. ‘She must have been worried sick about me,’ he thought. Just as he was about to move his other hand to embrace her, he suddenly noticed another weight pressing against it.
Turning his head slightly, his gaze landed on Thalia, resting on his arm. She, too, was sound asleep, her face calm and peaceful as she snored lightly, just like her sister.
Aether let out a weak chuckle before shaking his head. ‘Well, looks like I’m not going anywhere for a while.’ He sighed, deciding to just enjoy this moment a little longer. Taking a deep breath, he gently pulled both Raven and Thalia closer. One sister draped over him, the other snuggled up by his side—what more could he possibly ask for?
With a soft grin, he called his log, watching as the glowing text appeared before his eyes, displaying his updated details:

Aether’s gaze lingered on the log, noting the changes.
‘So you went ahead and separated the skills now?’ he mused before nodding approvingly. It was a smart move. Easier to navigate. But what truly caught his attention was his affection points… They had hit the absolute maximum!
‘Hold on… Just how many damn nines are there?’ His brows arched, a mix of amusement and disbelief playing on his face.
He never thought he’d actually reach the cap! But thinking back, it made sense. Saving empires, surviving impossible, and broadcasting his struggles to the world—it all paid off in the end.
‘Streaming my struggle was a genius move… I practically milked these affection points from everyone watching!’ A smug grin tugged at his lips before he turned back to the log.
‘Okay, everything looks good… I suppose. Except…’ His expression darkened slightly as his eyes scanned the log more carefully.
Something was missing….
‘Where the hell are my Attributes?’
!~Ding~!
[Log has been modified. Attributes are no longer necessary from this point onward.]
Aether frowned, his lips pressing into a thin line. ‘And how exactly am I supposed to level up now?’
!~Ding~!
[The requirements for levelling up from 90 onwards have changed!]
His frown deepened. ‘Changed how?’
[Instead of increasing individual attributes, and also to prevent an imbalance in nature, from Level 90 onwards, you will need 1,000,000,000 Affection Points to increase one level.]
Aether’s brain froze for a second before his eyes widened in sheer horror, “What the fuc—”
Before he could fully process the absolute scam unfolding before him, his thoughts were interrupted by soft, sleepy voices.
“Aether…?”
“H-Husband?”
Both Raven and Thalia suddenly stirred awake, their groggy eyes snapping open. The moment their gazes landed on him, their drowsiness disappeared entirely.
Without hesitation, they threw themselves onto him, wrapping their arms around his body with desperate tightness.
“I-I thought I lost you!” Raven’s voice cracked, trembling as she clung to him even harder. “P-Please, don’t ever do that again!”
“W-What the hell is wrong with you, you reckless idiot?!” Thalia’s voice was a mix of anger and relief, her face flushed as she squeezed his arm tightly. “Do you have any idea how scared we were?!”
Aether blinked in confusion, ‘What the hell happened while I was out?’
!~Ding~!
[Due to an overwhelming influx of Ethereal Energy, your body nearly entered a dead state. That’s why I pulled your consciousness into the Twin domains. Had you remained in your body, there was a 45% chance of death… Even if it’s Ethereal Energy, absorbing too much in a short period is extremely dangerous for both body and soul. That’s why you must be more cautious when levelling up.]
Aether let out a deep sigh, ‘Yeah… that actually makes sense.’ He exhaled slowly before glancing down at Raven and Thalia, who still had their arms wrapped around him, trembling slightly.
He could only blame himself for worrying them like this… Guilt settled in his chest as he reached out and softly rubbed their heads, his fingers threading through their hair in a comforting motion. “I’m fine, really,” he murmured, his voice gentle. “I’m sorry for scaring you.”
Of course, he hadn’t forgotten about the ridiculous numbers his log had just thrown at him.
‘We’ll talk about this scam later, Log!’ he mentally warned.
[…Hmph! Look who’s talking!]
Aether ignored the log’s petty attitude, choosing instead to focus on the two women clinging to him.
“W-We almost thought you were dead, bastard!!” Thalia muttered, her voice shaking slightly despite the harshness of her words. She instinctively snuggled closer to him, her warmth pressing against his side, while Raven furiously nodded in agreement, her grip around his torso tightening as if afraid he would disappear again.
Aether let out a deep sigh, his expression softening as he patted their backs reassuringly. “I’m fine…” he murmured in a calm yet soothing voice. Then, leaning down, he pressed a gentle kiss onto their foreheads. The simple action seemed to ease their trembling hearts. It took what felt like an eternity, but eventually, the tension in their bodies faded, and they finally calmed down.
“Sigh… I can’t believe you, jerk!” Thalia huffed, flipping her hair back dramatically as she returned to her usual self, though the lingering worry was still evident in her eyes.
She scowled, crossing her arms tightly over her chest as if trying to mask just how terrified she had been moments ago. Only she knew how close she had been to breaking down when she saw him lying there, unmoving. Her heart had nearly stopped at that moment!!
Raven, still snuggled into Aether’s embrace, nodded furiously. “You need to stop hurting yourself like this!” she scolded, her voice muffled against his chest as she pressed herself even deeper into his warmth, unwilling to let go.
Aether smiled at them both, his heart swelling slightly at the sight of their contrasting ways of showing concern. His ice-blue eyes flickered toward Thalia, who was now pouting slightly, clearly annoyed that Raven was the only one comfortably nestled in his arms. Seeing that, Aether’s grin turned mischievous.
“Here I thought you hated me or something…” he teased. His gaze locked onto hers, a sly expression creeping onto his face. “Are you really that worried about me, Thalia?”
Thalia’s lips twitched violently, her body stiffening as an unmistakable blush spread across her cheeks. ‘Fuck this bastard!’ she cursed internally before scoffing loudly.
“L-Let me tell you something! I wasn’t worried about you!” she declared, flipping her hair again in a futile attempt to act composed. “I was only worried that my sister would end up alone… and a widow! That’s the only reason! So don’t go getting any ideas, you damn bastard!…” she huffed, her voice rising slightly as if trying to convince not just him but herself as well.
As Thalia continued to ramble, Raven—who was still nestled comfortably against Aether—glanced up at them both, her crimson / Black eyes narrowing slightly.
It was painfully obvious that Thalia was into Aether, no matter how much she tried to deny it. And it wasn’t just her own observation—her mother had already confirmed everything.
A small pout formed on Raven’s lips before she suddenly leaned back slightly. Then, with a sweet yet knowing tone, she called out, “Husband.”
“Hmm?” Aether responded, glancing down at her.
Raven didn’t answer him immediately. Instead, her gaze flickered toward Thalia before she smirked ever so slightly.
“It seems… my little sister is in love with you,” she declared casually.
“OI! I NEVER SAID THA—”
“It’s obvious,” Raven interrupted, her voice utterly blank as she stared at Thalia with an unimpressed expression as if she couldn’t believe her sister was still trying to deny it.
Thalia’s cheeks turned an even darker shade of red as she gritted her teeth furiously,
“I-It’s not what you think, dammit! He was the one who forced me! He’s the one who loves me—he’s just too damn shy to admit it!” she snapped, her words rushing out in frustration.
Then, with a glare, she pointed at Aether accusingly. “I’m telling you, this bastard is the one interested in me! He even k-kissed me like he owns me or something!!”
Aether’s mouth fell open in sheer disbelief, ‘What the fuck? Are you serious, lady?!’ he screamed inwardly, barely able to process what she had just said. He was just about to list every single thing she had done to him when—
“I see… then there’s no need for you to become his wife, then…” Raven suddenly murmured, her voice carrying a chilling calmness.
“H-Huh?” Thalia blinked, momentarily stunned.
Before she could fully process Raven’s words, a sudden shift in the air made her spine tingle.
Raven’s entire demeanour darkened.
For the first time, Thalia felt an unmistakable shiver crawl down her back.
It wasn’t fear—no, it was something far more intense.
Possessiveness.
Dangerous…. Overwhelming!!!
Raven’s usual soft and stern expression twisted into something far more sinister, something that screamed obsession. Her crimson / Black eyes gleamed with a wild intensity as she raised her left forearm, displaying the intricate wife seal tattoo that marked her bond with Aether.
“Since he’s the one forcing you,” she continued, her voice smooth but laced with something undeniably sharp, “then you don’t need this wife seal.”
Then, with slow, deliberate movements, she flicked out her tongue and dragged it sensually over the tattoo.
Her lips curled into a dark smirk, her gaze locking onto Thalia’s with an almost predatory amusement.
“He is mine… and I am his.”
Thalia gulped hard.
“B-Big sis…?” she stammered, her throat tightening.
Aether, too, was momentarily taken aback.
Not because of Raven’s possessive nature—well, maybe a little—but that wasn’t the most shocking part.
No, what truly caught him off guard was the sheer intensity radiating from her.
Her raw emotions surged through the connection, thick and suffocating, laced with something undeniably… intoxicating much stronger than ever!!
And the moment it hit him—
His fucking shaft twitched.
Yep.
He was fucking turned on!!
‘W-What the hell is wrong with me? Why am I turned on right now?’ Aether’s thoughts scrambled as he tried to make sense of the sudden arousal flooding his body.
And then—
Raven flinched.
She stopped mid-glare, her breath hitching slightly as if something had just clicked inside her.
Slowly, she turned to face Aether, her expression shifting into something almost… fascinated.
Then, ever so slowly, her lips curled into a deliciously wicked smile.
It was as if she had just tasted something far too sweet.
Aether realized it instantly.
She felt it.
She felt his fucking arousal!!!
And just like that—her emotions spiked.
The intensity grew, burning even hotter, even wilder.
She leaned in, her fingers ghosting over his chest as she whispered in a dangerously seductive tone, “Aether~”
Then, without another word, she closed the distance.
And kissed him.
Not just any kiss.
A deep, hungry, possessive kiss.
Aether barely had time to react before her tongue pushed past his lips, tangling with his in an intoxicating heat.
“~Hmm~”
A soft, sultry moan escaped her throat.
Slurrp~
“~Hmmm~”
She sucked on his tongue, her body pressing flush against his, her hands roaming shamelessly over his chest.
“H-Hey! W-What are you—” Thalia stammered, flustered beyond belief as she watched them.
Raven finally pulled away just enough to glance at Thalia, a smug smirk playing on her lips.
“This is what a husband and wife do,” she purred, her voice laced with playful arrogance. “They love each other… and show it in every possible way~”
Then, before Thalia could even respond, Raven’s hand slid down.
Lower.
Lower…
Until her fingers pressed against the hard length straining against Aether’s pants.
Thalia’s lips twitched violently.
This was her sister.
The same sister she had once innocently taught about these things.
And now she was acting like she had a goddamn PhD in it.
Aether, on the other hand, merely smirked at Thalia, thoroughly amused.
His hands slid down, gripping Raven’s ass with a possessive squeeze, his ice-blue eyes gleaming with dark desire.
“Y-Yo—”
Before Thalia could even finish her sentence—
Raven moved swiftly.
With one smooth motion, she pulled Aether’s cock out from his pants, her fingers wrapping around his thick length. Your adventure continues at My Virtual Library Empire
A wicked grin spread across her face as she tilted her head.
“Now,” she purred, her tongue flicking out teasingly, “this is how a woman shows her love to her man…”
Then—
Without hesitation—
She dragged her tongue slowly along his girth, savouring the heat of him before taking him into her mouth.
