Villains' Sisters Yearn for my Copious Mana

Chapter 85: Minerva's past

After returning home, Max and Faith were quite tired.

No one was in their mansion in Zion, for Max's girls decided to spend time with people on Earth, helping them with their plights.

"Let's take a bath. We can't waste our hot springs, can we?" Max laughed, taking Faith's hands to the hot spring.

She didn't refuse him, looking at him with sultry eyes, "It will be a waste if no one takes your invitation. The way you sounded made it seem like a brothel."

Many girls believed that Max was picking them up. He was brazen enough to pick up many girls, even!

However, he was serious, and many girls also noticed it.

As dual cultivation wasn't foreign to their hearts, they imagined that Max had something similar brewing up in his mountains. Of course, no one would go here to have sex with him for benefits, but they wouldn't mind increasing their sexual life experience by using dual cultivator's hot springs and massages.

Max explained that to Faith, to which she scoffed, "If anything, I don't think we will see any fate star candidates in hot springs any time soon."

Faith entered the hot spring, her reaction much better than before. She calmly sank into the water, biting her lips as the pleasure started gathering within her soft curves.

Max was the same. But he sat closely to Faith, his hand around her shoulder, "If they want to know what exactly concept I have or who I am, I can see them coming here to test hot springs.

They won't come defenseless, but that's fine. I don't have any ill-intent toward beauties.

And I want to know more about girls that entered my eye, so… Faith, what's your goal in your life?" Max asked, staring into Faith's golden eyes.

She looked back at him, replying with a soft tone, "What are your current goals?"

"I asked first, though," Max laughed, leaning down to have a more comfortable time in the hot springs. His hand slid down Faith's smooth arm, picking her hand, "Well, I don't mind telling you all."

Max was a newbie to the vast universe. His goals might be grand, for he aimed for dragon slayers and was a fate star. But as Faith had more experience in it, her objectives were surely more advanced.

"I have to visit places my grandpa visited and check on people he loved. If they are mistreated because he is no longer active in the universe, I will fuck them up. I also have to plant a tree at the highest points in every world.

I must kill dragon slayers.

I must study Fate Star Concept… There's some stuff to do, right?" Max laughed, then locked his eyes on Faith.

She recalled her world and her people before replying to Max, "I'm the queen of the world known as Veilnue. People born in this world are known as Fairies, for our beauty exceeds normal standards.

In the past, former queens received endless presents from all over the world, siding with the kings of the highest status.

In my life, however, I didn't even have time to flirt. We faced the universe's greed, for people started enslaving our people left and right.

I was forced to use one of the previous queen's presents, sealing the world from the whole universe.

My people have been cut from the outside world, waiting for my return. Those who were outside can not return back home, living in fear of being caught by those horny bastards!" Faith was so angry that her words turned hot springs hotter.

Max gazed at her without blinking, thinking about her situation, "Can your world sustain itself without other worlds?"

Earth did it without any problem. However, the population of Faith's world might be much more, and they could have been reliant on external sources.

He didn't know how exactly it was, so he asked her.

Faith nodded with a faint smile, "We still have many years ahead of us. The isolation won't last for an eternity, and I am worried about people outside of it. But we will survive."

Her presence in Zion made sense now. She worked here to get experience, meet people all over the world, and study them.

And with her status, she could become a servant of the Fate Star, whose power influence the whole world.

But as Max thought about her, he asked seriously, "You know I am pretty horny, and so are my powers. I also didn't hold back in our first meeting.

Although it's strange, you might be good at hiding your emotions. If you argued with me, I could've given up on you, so I guess I am right here?" Max asked even more seriously, wanting to hear a genuine answer.

And Faith didn't have anything to hide, "What's wrong with being horny?"

"Huh?" Max was thrown out of his flow, gazing at Faith with dilated eyes.

She curved her lips up, her candid smile charming Max further, "There's nothing wrong with it. When a couple gets horny, should they chide themselves? No, they should act upon their feelings, engrossing themselves in each other.

It's people like those bastards or Minerva Clan that turn dual cultivation into a crime," Faith's words turned Max sweaty, his heart sinking.

She just mentioned the name of his grandma's clan.

It was a lost clan, and Max suspected they were connected to dual cultivation! Little did he know that they were infamous instead!

"Your hand turned cold…" Faith whispered, gripping Max's hand, "You have a connection to Minerva?"

"…I know that my grandma came from their ranks," Max decided to be honest, for Faith was candid with him too.

And it wasn't like he worked for Minerva or was in contact with them. He wasn't related to them and their deeds at all.

"You don't know what they did… Then, I will share what I know," Faith said, starting a story about Minerva Clan.

In the far past, Minerva Clan was a clan of researchers. They were humans who adapted over time so that they could continue researching everything in the vast universe.

They developed more hearts, and their bodies' systems changed severely, allowing mana to course in a way that they would be able to bring out abilities of many races.

They could create skills at some point, too.

"They had many branches that learned about worlds in unique ways. Those branches competed with each other," Faith said.

Max did his best to control his breathing, replying in a quiet tone, "There was a dual cultivation branch, right?"

"Yes," Faith nodded, continuing the story, "They dual cultivated with other races, learning about their bodies, mana, systems, and everything else through it. They developed a dual cultivation technique that could read information from even primordial times.

Their method quickly outpaced every other branch. At some point, everyone joined their branch, turning Minerva Clan into Dual Cultivation Sect."

Their methods were superb, but Minerva Clan couldn't reach their goal, the origins. The primordials were their biggest achievement, but what was before them? Even primordials used an already established system, so there had to be something or someone.

To achieve that, Minerva Clan became more demanding and greedy.

They wanted to literally dual cultivate with everyone of high status. Be it kings, queens, or even their daughters, they wanted people to sacrifice their bodies and time for them.

"There were many people that they couldn't dual cultivate with before. Kings and queens had their pride. But exactly, those people had the most developed mana and bodies. Dual Cultivation with them would provide the most information to their greedy hearts.

So when they refused even a night, Minerva declared war.

War after war. They kept waging battles against others to the point where everyone started despising them.

After the whole universe kicked them away, dual cultivation became prohibited. Only after a good amount of time did people accept this method again in their lives, not slandering or killing those who just wanted to dual cultivate with their beloveds.

I reckon those dogs from The Tower still pay attention to them, though," Faith said, glancing at Max's face.

He looked stupefied, clearly weirded by Minerva Clan, "Disgusting…" He then smiled brightly, "Serves them right."

Max followed his grandpa's rule closely, so he was obviously repulsed by the Minerva Clan. He also believed that Mateo's wife managed to help him give offspring because she was Minerva, so he wouldn't utterly hate them.

His grandma surely lived in fear for a long time before finding Mateo.

They paid the price, and now it was time for a new chapter.

Max didn't know whether he would find other Minerva People. He would continue his path, turning Dual Cultivation into something everyone could enjoy, even if just barely.

Perhaps, his hot springs would be the first step toward that goal.

Faith smiled widely, hearing him, "I've become too horny because of you, Max. Leave responsibilities aside, and let's have fun…

I must become, and my snatch surely will give you more benefits than you can take," Faith said proudly, lifting her curves up.

She stood naked before Max, ready to gobble him.
