Last time:
The three curious to check if what their seeing is real walk into the room, and as they continue their walk with the lights turning on as they go, the visual of a beautiful yet small girl with long flowing golden hair and red eyes trapped in a cube becomes more clear to them. "Please help me" the girls hoarse yet begging voice filled the room.
——————————————————————————
"A little girl, down here? It has to be a trap". Shizuku went on guard, before Akio stepped up. "Who are you"
"I'm an atavistic vampire…I was granted great power…because of it I worked hard for my country. But…one day…all my retainers…told me I was not needed anymore. Uncle…became my king…I was fine with that…However, I was dangerous because of my powers…they couldn't kill me…so they sealed me…in here."
"What do you mean can't be killed?"
"…Automatic regeneration. Injuries heal immediately. Even if decapitated."
The girls smiles cramped at the overpoweredness of such an ability.
"Interesting, is that your great power?" Akio questioned the presumably little girl, he already knew her story but still put on a act of hesitation.
"Not just that…Magic, direct manipulation…also I don't need formation."
"Thats pretty cool" Akio forgot that for normal people to cast magic they needed to set up a magic circle like formation. He of course didn't need to follow this rule as an Infinite Dragon God and neither did his girls after their evolution into high humans. They also didn't need to chant like normal people.
Showing a slight hesitation Akio walked forward. "Are you going to help her" Kaori reacted first asking Akio unsurely. "Why not I don't think she's lying, and she sounds very desperate." Akio finally reaching the cube that trapped the little girl he placed his hand on the cube and used inventory making sure to isolate the girl from it. The girl started to fall but was caught by Akio. She remained speechless her eyes wide at the feeling of finally being free. Akio slowly lowered the girl to the ground.

"You know, the vampires supposedly went extinct a while ago, exactly how old does that make you?"
The girl snapped out of her daze and glared at Akio. "Don't be rude". Her words were backed up by Kaori, Komi and Shizuku who also sent Akio judging looks. *Cough* *Cough* Akio coughed to ease the atmosphere before asking another question. "So what's your name?"
The girl's gave going softer continued to gaze at Akio's face. She had just realized how handsome the man in front of her was. Her face growing red she spoke "I don't want my old name, you choose one." Akio nodded before going into fake deep thought. After a minute he spoke "How about Yue, it means Moon from where I'm from, and thats exactly what you looked like when we first entered."
"Yue"
"Yue"
"Yue"
The girl continued to mutter her name as if familiarizing herself with it. After a while she stopped. "Whats your name?" Yue asked Akio while also taking note of the girls behind him who were slowly walking to them.
"My name is Akio, Akio Izumi"

"Akio"
"Akio"
"Akio"
Yue repeatedly muttered the name just as she did for her own. While she was doing that the girls reached where they were. Immediately Shizuku went in front of Yue blocking her from his view. "Pervert, stop looking at her and give her a blanket or something." Akio completely forgot about the fact that she wasn't wearing clothes. He took out a good sized blanket before Shizuku snatched it and wrapped it around Yue. The still kneeling girl was in a daze as this was happening, she was confused on the identity of these three beautiful women.
"Ah right, these three are Shizuku, Komi and Kaori", Akio pointed to them all separately introducing them to Yue, "They are my lovers."
"Nice to meet you, sorry for this perverts indecency."
"Another one, well nice to meet you"
"H-Hello"
Shizuku and Kaori openly gave greeting to Yue, while Komi stood behind Akio and stammered out her words. Yue slowly nodded in acknowledgment while internally she was replaying over and over the words that Akio just said, 'Lovers?' 'He said lovers, all of them'. Oblivious to her own emotions Yue started to develop a but of jealousy to the girls.
"Alright let's get out of here, I will handle the giant bug looming over us". Akio's voice broke Yue out of her thoughts before she looked up to see a giant scorpion. The giant scorpion jumped down from the ceiling, but before it could even reach the ground, Akio activated his eyes using one of his new skills Hollow Technique: Purple. Akio was able to mimic cursed, positive and negative energy using simple mana. As such he was able to use the same skills of a certain white haired sorcerer. Instantly a large purple ball of destruction was shot out upward not only erasing the scorpion but every monster that was in it's range as it went up the last 25 floors. In doing that Akio had received a massive amount of exp.
Yue stood in shock at the display. Not only was he able to completely annihilate the hard skinned monster in front of him, he destroyed multiple floors of the dungeon that was said to be unbreakable, all while not chanting or even using a magic circle. 'He's like me' Yue's eyes widen at that realization, before she realized it her desire to be with him increased more.
{Plus 45 affection with Yue for showing her that she's truly not alone}
"Are you not human"
"How can you use magic without a circle"
"How are you that strong"
Yue rained questions down on Akio, the girls also looked at him funny as they knew he was strong but were oblivious to how strong.
"Ill answer your questions later for now lets just leave this place, better yet lets go back to our dimension." Akio dismissed Yue's questioning look and created a portal to the house.
Yue had yet another question seeing the portal appear out of nowhere but held it back for now. Soon they all entered while Shizuku carried Yue, who still hadn't gotten use to supporting herself after 300 years of no movement. They spent a week filling in Yue on who they were and her other questions, learning more magic and discovering her abilities. They then set out to yet again finish their conquest of the Labyrinth.
A/N: I know I said I would finish it by next chapter but it's simply not possible unless I make it 5k words, and I want to keep chapters at a length of 1-2.5k words. I will make another chapter later tho and I may be able to finish.
