Extra's Harem: Invincibility Starts with Marriage and lots of Children-Chapter 130- Heart Gu

"Yes, it's the same as the previous time." As I clicked on the inventory where the icon of that centipede was showing, a small written text appeared about it, categorizing it as an artifact rather than just a creature.

[Sub-artifact: Heart GU, creation date: unspecified]

The given text confirmed the theory I had from the story I read, according to which these goo were born as organisms but were killed and then imbued with the artificial artifact created by the Gu Queen, who sold these in lower realms from the upper one.

Naturally, due to establishing a chain of manufacturing, suppliers, and the seller, no one originally knew the particular origin of these insects.

But for the ninth realm, everyone thought they were prepared by the Poison Sect.

However, in truth, even the Poison Sect derived these insects crawling within a valley that was highly secured, given that such worms automatically came out of a crack there in exchange for some gold coins or valuable items.

It was a secret supply chain established from the upper realm, making it clear that not just a single dimensional crack existed, but there were more open in the lower realm.

Though, of course, all of them were useless, considering a human could not enter through a very small crack within the Poison Sect, making the one that opens after the arrival of that immortal descending on this land the only source used by major characters to ascend.

"System, infuse this thing with domain." But now, fortunately getting my hands on one of the worms classified as an artifact, it was clear that I didn't need mass access to such things, considering my domain would itself start to supply me with such items.

[Eww, Host, do you really want something like this inside of me?]

'Don't talk like a gay, idiot, just infuse it!' I was already wanting to get the name of the kingdom from where this woman had arrived, while also questioning why she wanted to hurt my wife even though there was doubt about her intention all along being the progeny stone.

I needed to clear all my doubts.

[Artifact_merge_Activated]

[ERROR]

[Missing piece detected, synchronizing energy to domain's wavelength]

'Huh? What?' Hearing one confusing sound after another, with a red window popping up beside another blue one, I was bewildered as I inquired. Stretching my finger, I clicked on it, trying to understand.

Can't the system just tell me if it's done or not, instead of providing these useless codes that have no context?

[Sub-Artifact infused]

'It's done?'

[Can't you see?]

'Y-you punk...' My mouth twitched hearing such a rude tone. As I closed my eyes, I could feel all the abilities within my domain being heightened in several parts of me, like how I could sense each moving thing in detail within my domain.

I was even able to feel the infused artifacts and the abilities of my domain.

'Here it is.' Finally, with my senses pinpointing that particular ability without delay, I activated it, shutting my eyes as I tried to see how it worked.

Khrrrhh Khrrkkhh Khrkhh Khrrkkhh

'!?!'

"Wai-wait!" The moment I did, suddenly hundreds, if not several dozens, of centipedes popped into midair, with small globes falling on the floor one after another as they filled the whole room within a few seconds, causing my eyes to just turn upward...

No, more specifically, I stumbled back as my body fell due to losing friction.

"Shit—" With my eyes shutting instinctively, I prepared myself to feel the return of my waist pain or at least a head bump.

"Are you alright, husband?" But my body was hugged in mid-air by soft, delicate hands with fingers wrapped near my shoulder.

Slowly opening my eyes, I blinked left and then right, looking towards the sapphire light in her eyes, the tranquil lake appearing as I gazed into them, feeling lost in that sight so close that I could feel the softness and fragrance from the night before.

"Good morning, wife." Looking toward Aleriana, I felt my mind basking again in the warmth as I side-glanced at the mess I created before turning back to her and added, "A wife's first duty should be to clear the mess her husband creates; I hope you understand, wife..."

"Haah, a husband should also be like a good husband and not roam around naked in front of another woman." Aleriana's words came pretty fast, sharp, and I felt my eyes glued to her.

Clearly confused, I looked down and saw that the towel I had relied on had slipped away.

A sudden burst of Qi hurling out of Aleriana caused those centipedes filling the whole place to vanish in the form of energy, unlike the insects that died, their bodies bursting in a purple light, popping like crackers before the whole room was once again empty.

'Hey, system, did you notice my wife seems to act like a wife now?'

[Speak something I understand]

'Tch, only husbands could understand.' Shaking my head, I slowly lifted myself, leaning before grabbing the towel and looking at Aleriana, whose eyes were averted as if giving me some privacy after everything that happened last night.

A smirk crept across my face as I could see that she was definitely trying to act tough while clearly melting inside from last night's experience.

But whatever, work is important, and the future ahead would give me more time to melt her from the outside.

"How did you have so much Heart Gu? Are you a spy from another kingdom?" Aleriana's voice pulled me out of my thoughts as I saw her approaching that woman, who was already shocked after seeing so many worms come out of nowhere, blinking as she tried to make sense of it, only to have her mouth grabbed by Aleriana's claws.

"Urghh...Y-you."

"Wait, wife, don't break her jaws," I said. Ignoring the woman whose eyes were looking at me in shock, I moved, placing my hand on Aleriana's shoulder to stop her from using violent methods to make that woman speak.

If Aleriana broke her jaw, then most probably I wouldn't get even the answer I wanted.

"Hm, she seems to have Eclipsing Qi. I cannot discern her level, but given she was suppressed by my room's illusion, she is likely weaker than mid-6th layer. Still, be cautious, husba—mmmhh."

"Stop, I understand; don't burden yourself, wife." I smirked while placing my finger on her lips, stopping her from speaking further as I felt how she was able to deduce so many things just by guessing the woman's body condition.

Most probably, she would also reach the conclusion that this woman was from a neighboring kingdom, yet I wanted to take this in a different way.

Simply because hearing from that woman directly would give more information rather than reaching conclusions first and potentially going in the wrong direction in the absence of proper information.

So, it's best to let my wife use her brain after we collect all the information from that woman.

"Mhh, I was just trying to help." Aleriana gave a blank look towards me, making me understand.

Before casting a side glance at the woman lying on the bed, gasping, as most probably Aleriana had merely broken her jawbone, I snapped my fingers.

"Then, let's hear everything first from her?"

Khrrrkkk

With a snap just above the mouth of that woman, a heart-shaped creature materialized in light and instantly entered her mouth, not even giving her proper time to bite her tongue or anything like that.

"Aarghhhhhhh! Khwaackkk!"
