My Yandere Wives are Transcendents

"You bitch, You finally showed up!!!"

A voice filled with annoyance reached Eli's ears, prompting him to halt and turn toward the source.

As he turned, Eli saw a black-haired man hastily approaching. His gaze briefly met Lucian's, who was merely observing the unfolding scene.

Eli shifted his attention to Mariel, seeking some clarification. She shook her head in denial, and then he glanced at Rose, who nodded awkwardly.

"Who is he?" Eli whispered, his breath grazing Rose's neck. Suddenly, He squinted his eyes at the corner of the corridor before glancing back at the black-haired man.

"W-Well, he is my brother" Rose replied with a hint of discomfort.

"Father!" The black-haired man embraced Lucian.

"What's wrong?" Lucian inquired.

"Nothing, Father. It's about marriage" the black-haired man said, eyeing Rose.

"I thought you would be holed up in the Nex" he added sarcastically.

"What do you want now?" Rose responded, her tone tinged with annoyance.

"What do I want? You already know what I want" he retorted.

Rose stayed silent, as he continued, "Tsk, no matter how many times you tried to avoid it, you still engaged with me, you should do your d--" but before he could finish.

She interrupted in a deadly tone, "Father engaged us without my permission. My mother never agreed to marry a worthless jerk like you, so mind your words, otherwise you won't see tomorrow".

"F-Father!!" The black-haired man stepped back, surprised by Rose's bold response.

"Rose, you should know we already discussed whether you have to marry me or him. No one else, as you hold a second higher position in the Royal house, and 'She' won't let you go unless you bear a child with one of us" Lucian explained, supporting his son.

'Royals are really complicated...Their family total weirdo...' Eli thought as he looked at both Father and Son who targeting their own Daughter/Sister.

Eli whispered to Mariel, "Who is 'She'?".

Mariel, flinching, replied, "Sentinel, that blurred figure you met now".

Rose, hearing her father's words, knew the gravity of the situation. Even her mother's power wouldn't be a match for the Sentinel.

"Even your boy toy will be killed ruthlessly" Lucian declared, pointing at Eli, who had his arm around Rose's waist.

The black-haired man squinted his eyes as he saw an auburn-haired man holding the hips of his future wife.

"!!!"

The black-haired man grew furious, shouting at Rose,

"Y-You bitch!!! So, this is the reason you are staying in the Nex!! You are just like your whore mother!!"

He approached Eli menacingly, demanding, "Take your fucking hand from her waist!" as he scanned Eli from top to bottom....Eli's handsome face irked him more.

Rose, who didn't want unnecessary drama, attempted to wriggle out of Eli's grasp; however, his hold on her waist only tightened.

"Why?" Eli asked with an innocent look.

"SHE IS GOING TO BE MY WIFE, YOU GIGOLO!!" The black-haired man shouted angrily.

'Damn, he is noisy and....spraying' Eli thought as he used his arts to divert the spittle spraying from the man's noisy mouth. Once again, he glanced at the corner of the corridor.

Rose was on the verge of punching the man when,

"Hehe...hehehehe...." an uncanny laugh echoed.

Eli turned to look at the source....who was none other than Mariel.

With a blank expression, Mariel stared at Lucian, who suddenly shivered upon seeing her new expression. "First, a boy toy, and now a gigolo...heheh".

While Eli might not have minded, Mariel didn't appreciate Eli being referred to in such a manner. She controlled herself to avoid causing problems for Eli. However, everyone has their limits. Hearing someone randomly call her "love" like that angered her, so she swiftly acted.

"Wha--'PPPUUFFFfff'" the black-haired man attempted to shout again, but before he could, five fingers slapped his face, causing him to roll back a few times, hit the wall, and fall unconscious.

"We are leaving!" Mariel announced, swiftly teleporting everyone away.

"..." Lucian was taken aback by this sudden turn of events. However, this was precisely what he had been hoping for, and he wore a happy smile.

"Soldiers, arrest everyone belonging to Duke of Inferno Phoenix's household for revolting against---" His enthusiastic voice abruptly stopped as he was forced to slam onto the ground.

"Y-Your Majesty!!" Lucian looked at the blurred figure that appeared out of nowhere.

"Do.not.touch.that.man...if not, even I won't help you anymore" The blurred figure warned before disappearing.

"ggrrrr...Fuck!!" Wiping his blood from his lips, Lucian stood up, 'So he is more important than me...' he screamed inwardly.

His enraged eyes fell on his son, whose face twisted. Lucian walked toward him, not out of sadness, but to deliver a harsh reprimand.

"You retard!! Are you even my son? Beaten by a bitch!!" He kicked his son's face.

'Boom!'

His son's face was busted, and he slowly fell down as blood gushed out from his neck.

"Use your brain at least!!" Lucian shouted before summoning soldiers and ordering them to revive his useless son.

He then quickly went to a particular room and, without knocking, opened the door.

"Luna!" Lucian called as he looked at the purple-haired girl who was gazing at herself in the mirror with a captivating expression.

"F-Father?" Luna was startled by the sudden intrusion.

Approaching her, he hugged her, taking in her delicate fragrance.

"My dear daughter, you don't need to worry about your purity being taken by some commoner"

"Yes?" Luna was puzzled by Lucian's seemingly random statement, ignoring how her father 'gently' rubbed her back.

"I encountered a man named 'Asher Eli.' Just as the media says, he is a really dangerous man... Don't worry, I will definitely protect you" Lucian said with a warm, reassuring smile, inwardly vowing, 'And make sure those two bitches also face consequences for this humiliation'

"...Hmm" Luna didn't say anything; instead, she just nodded with indifferent eyes.

"Hmm... You braided your hair beautifully" Lucian commented as he noticed her meticulously braided hair that was taken with care love and tenderness.

He softly touched the strands, and Luna stuttered in fear, but instantly, she softly smiled as if she appreciated her father's touch.

"Your mother braids hair just like you.... She always looks lovely" Lucian said with a mix of affection and sorrow on his face.

Hearing that, Luna said while clenching her teeth, "D-Don't worry, dad..."

Lucian smiled and hugged her tightly, his 'paternal love' beyond compression...

Somewhere in the same castle,

On the throne, the blurred figure mumbled, "His senses were keener than I thought" The blurred figure had been eavesdropping on their conversation in the corner of the corridor. Not even Mariel, who was very adept at sensing others, could detect it due to the power difference, yet Eli immediately gazed in its direction.

The figure initially thought it was just a coincidence, but the second time....there was no way it was just a pure coincidence.

"He has a lot of potential, but he wasn't the person I was searching for" It pondered before gazing at the golden door with longing, reminiscing about a past that felt both distant and haunting.

....

...

..

"~Hmm~"

Mariel and Eli were currently hugging each other on the bed. Mariel wanted to be with him alone before others could hog him. She knew that once the chaos settled, they might not get a chance like this again.

And more importantly, she won't be able to flirt with him in front of her daughters so she wanted to use the time effectively...very effectively as possible.

"So, who is that Sentinel, and why does it want to meet me?" Eli asked, gently tucking a strand of Mariel's hair behind her ear.

"T-That's..." Mariel hesitated for a moment, grappling with the complexity of the situation. Seeing her struggle, Eli sighed empathetically, his eyes reflecting a mix of curiosity and understanding.

"I am not worthy enough to hear that, right?"

"....Yes" Mariel replied, her voice tinged with a hint of gloom. Yet, the atmosphere shifted as Eli planted a tender kiss on her forehead, "Don't worry".

"Heheh..." Mariel couldn't help but giggle, the sound resonating with a mix of relief and affection.

Eli marvelled at the paradox before him....a woman who had birthed two children yet seemed like a carefree and lovely girl at heart.

"You wanted to know about 'Lucian' Right?" Mariel inquired, her eyes holding a subtle knowing smile.

"Well, Yeah... and I'd also like to know more about My Mariel" Eli affirmed. The intensity of his gaze conveyed a protective concern, stemming from his dislike of the way Lucian looked at Mariel and his desire to comprehend her profound aversion towards him.

Mariel's smile broadened, acknowledging Eli's genuine interest. She sensed the ripple effect of his warmth and thought, 'He is a really lovely man' A sweet kiss on his lips preceded her sharing more about herself,

"Well, I was born and raised in the Phoenix house, where children have to kill others to ascend to the head of the House.

I had numerous sisters and brothers, all driven solely by the singular goal of ascending to the leadership of the House.

But,

But, I wasn't interested in that. I simply wanted to relish my life, so I deliberately steered clear of political entanglements. I was a bit....just a bit rebellious during that period.

My penchant for roaming around and breaking the rules led others to view me as unsuitable for the position of the head, and gradually, they began to ignore me.

I didn't mind if others harboured resentment or refused to form connections, as I considered myself of no use to anyone. And I was fine with that.

However,

There was one persistent commoner girl who incessantly bothered me. Initially, I avoided her, suspecting her motives to be driven by a desire for my wealth....After her prolonged persistence, I finally reached a breaking point and challenged her to a duel, imposing the condition that she would cease approaching me.

Regrettably, I lost that duel.....Consequently, I found myself reluctantly becoming her friend.

In the beginning, I was irritated by her presence, but with the passage of time, she evolved into a close friend.

I, who had never enjoyed combat or sought to elevate my cultivation rank, found a new desire: to stand by her side and attain her level of greatness.

Thus, I embarked on rigorous training to match her prowess. My skills, cultivation, and power experienced a remarkable transformation....Nevertheless, I couldn't surpass her.

My siblings, recognizing my burgeoning talent, became increasingly watchful. I anticipated this would happen, but it didn't matter; all I wanted was to stand alongside my friend.

Naturally, those who posed a threat to me, I ruthlessly dispatched.

She was a naive, good-hearted girl, steadfast in her beliefs. She taught me the importance of valuing every life.

Our lives unfolded perfectly, and I cherished every moment spent with her, until... she fell in love with a man.

A Noble"
