Ghoul King's Harem
Chapter 21 21: How A Ghoul Evolves!

Their gazes interlocked for a moment, her vacant eyes merely watching him as her hands crushed a boy's skull in her hands before she vanished again.

Loud thuds sounded as she slammed across the walls and ceiling, like a strange monster, before leaping onto another boy; his screams began to echo as she tore out his throat with her sharp teeth, spitting the meat from his flesh towards Faust.

She once again looked at him with a vacant look.

'What does she want?'

Although she was his Vesta, there was no clear connection, and most likely caused by indirect infection from the water, which helped him in future methods of building his power.

Her agile body flung across the walls this time, running along them with graceful steps as she flipped off the wall with a loud growl leaving her lips as if calling out to something or someone, grabbing another two boys' heads as they tried to flee in terror.

"N-no!?"

"P-please... we didn't mean to do that to y...Gyaaaaah!?"

Maria didn't devour them; her eyes narrowed with shimmering dark light before pulling back both arms and tossing the heads at high speed, slamming so hard into the fleeing third years it penetrated their chests.

'This is bad; although I want to trust she is my Vesta, her loyalty and affection are not displayed! I need to tame her or assert my dominance as her master!'

Faust dashed towards her, waiting for her to grab a poor black-haired boy, snapping his legs with a brutal kick.

He used all his power to ram into Maria, sending them both shooting through a thin plasterboard wall, landing on a girl's single bed, bouncing lightly as he managed to press her down.

'Fuck, she is tough; my body hurts!' Faust thought to himself, looking into her beautiful red eyes as she growled and let out strange sounds from her damaged throat with a long scar across it.

Faust wanted to kill those boys, all of them, for their actions.

Maria began to struggle; her arms snapped in a strange direction as she began to claw at his sides and bite his neck with her sharp teeth.

The memories and feelings of Alex began to surface as he looked at the unfamiliar yet familiar girl.

It was Maria before the end, trying to keep up with Claire and the others in track, panting desperately as they left her behind.

Alex was waiting for Amy and watching the girls racing because he enjoyed seeing their bodies moving, especially their firm butts when they ran.

Despite being inferior, she kept trying and pushing herself, with short legs and a slow speed.

'This girl would be delighted if she saw how fast she was right now, haha...' Alex thought, sitting in a dark room across from his current form.

'She is ours; we made her this way!' Faust, the projection of his ghoulish desires and thoughts, shouted.

'Then she isn't experienced but a woman we will accept?' The human Alex asked.

'We can devour her and advance to the second stage!' Faust insisted.

In the real world, Alex's eyes became clouded and distant as he bit into her neck, chewing the soft flesh and devouring her sweet blood as he began to enjoy her flavour.

"Uggh!?" Maria winced, but her eyes didn't show any emotions, although her struggling stopped as her body relaxed and became still, watching as he consumed part of her neck.

A silver light glared in her eyes, a sword thrust down to penetrate her head.

'No, now isn't the time to eat! She's more used alive!'

The human thoughts of Alex made their last stand, forcing his body to separate from the delicious meal, lifting his body and leaning over her face.

He felt a burning pain as the sword pierced through his chest, splashing his blood into Maria's face and lips as suddenly, for the first time since she appeared, a slight sense of emotion filled her eyes, the light of desire and obsession.

Maria lifted, her claws wrapping around his back, digging into his flesh as his black blood began to ooze down her fingers like sweet sticky caramel.

Her face pressed against his chest, with a long red tongue sliding over his chest, lapping up the blood from his wound, before her head moved towards his neck, on the opposite side that he bit her and drove her sharp fangs into his neck.

As the sword was pulled from Faust's chest, blood squirted for a moment before the wound quickly healed, causing the boy who stabbed him to stumble back in shock.

He was about to shout, revealing Faust's secret, before a woman's hand grabbed his head, pulling it back, and a sharp dagger swiftly cut across his throat.

Mildred's eyes were no longer green but dark red after seeing him stabbed; the human voice inside her mind stopped fighting and let the raging ghoul instincts take over.

In the distance, the screams and wails of the boys sounded as a fierce spear thrust into their bodies seven times; over and over, Samatha punished and tortured them to death.

First, she pierced their thighs, broke their knee's and then moved on to someone crippling them.

Samantha killed almost all of the remaining males with her eyes bright red, slight black veins forming under her flesh as they throbbed and pulsed, almost as if she went berserk.

She was no longer speaking or listening to the males who begged, simply grunting and growling like Maria.

Only Hanz remained his pants stained with his urine as he dashed away towards the running track as fast as possible.

None noticed, but when Maria killed the first boy, Jeff and his group of four already fled to the running track, not wanting to fight this fearsome monster.

As Maria began to savour his flesh and blood, the other two girls stepped closer through the plaster wall, watching as this new woman was enjoying their master.

Now the threat was death; both girls seemed to calm down, with Mildred's eyes returning to light green, feeling strange at seeing this sight as the sweet scent of his blood filled the room, causing her to feel a hunger deep within her core.

Samatha saw that a chunk of Faust's shoulder was eaten, then shot forward, punting her with a kick sending her crashing into the wall, her head flung back, smashing the window's attracting the distant groans of a few zombies.

"Ugh... fuck that hurts quite a bit!" Faust muttered before rising to his feet.

The sensation of being eaten caused him to feel a strange sense of pleasure as he looked down towards the beautiful woman with her lips and chin full of his blood, still staring at him with her eyes.

Then he noticed something, those eyes were no longer vacant, and there was a sense of will in them as she watched him, sitting against the wall, with her chest slowly moving.

Maria Affection +101 -> 101 (Obsessive...)

Maria Loyalty +100 -> 100 (Unbreakable)

Faust's eyes began to glow, watching the changes and locking eyes with her; nothing mattered to them as if lost in each other's gaze before he turned away, a slightly angry and irritated look as he watched the direction of the running field.

"It seems we cannot stay with humans for long."

His voice should have seemed sad, but the tone was happy, as if delighted at this fact.

"But an elf, who knows?"

-

Maria's world became bleak after being kidnapped that night; hours of punishment and horror filled her memories before nothing.

Her world turned dark after they slit her throat and snapped her legs.

Despite her need for revenge, the burning anger towards humans and the men that assaulted her slowly faded as her life slipped away; she desperately willed herself to fight and survive.

However, it was pointless.

'Is this the end? I can't feel my legs anymore; my chest and lower body hurt like someone set them on fire and keeps tearing at my muscles.'

"...a....h...."

'My voice won't sound. Did they do anything to my throat besides shove those tiny pencils inside? Damn... I'm sorry Claire, I promised to stick with you...'

The next moments were agonising for Maria; she drowned in her blood as it began to seep into her pierced lungs, the ghoul transformation too slow as it healed the wounds only after her organs failed.

Her heart stopped beating, filled with reluctance and desire for revenge.

Several hours later, a loud snapping filled the darkness, followed by the tearing and rearranging of muscles and bones.

A tanned figure began climbing from the ground with elongated arms, flexible legs and mid-length white hair with a half-braid.

Maria, the human, was dead, like Alex; she was completely replaced by the ghoul Maria as her humane thoughts were hidden deep down, like a locked chest.

Only desire and the sensation there was something, someone out there she must bow to, no matter how much she rejected it, she didn't know who or what that thing was.

She was hungry.

Ravenous!

Then suddenly, a group of corpses attracted to the sound of her body cracking stumbled close, filling her nose with a scent of "food" as her body vanished, like a gust of wind, she wrapped around the first corpse tearing its head off with her teeth savouring its taste.

'This is delicious.'

'I want more!'

She groaned, but no words left her mouth, the vocal cords not repaired from where they slit her throat.

Thus for the next few hours, days? Maria didn't have a sense of time, only a bottomless hunger and a deep blazing hatred for anything male or human.

Maria roamed around until finally, she resided inside the girl's dormitory; the entire room was empty after she stated her desire, once again experiencing that painful but euphoric transformation as she became taller and a prettier sense of self became stronger.

"It" became Her.

Then a moment later, the sound of humans, the scent of a vile memory, "they" were here!

Finally, it was time for her to avenge those who harmed her.

However, as she was taking her revenge, there was a strange guy. His scent wasn't familiar, but she felt nostalgic; his presence made her feel something, not anger but something just as strong as she tried to get him to understand her.

'Here, take this. You look hungry...'

She spat part of her meal to him, hoping he would eat it and become strong like her. Unsure why she felt this way, but those pesky males from her memory kept screaming and making noise, disturbing her.

"Grrrrak!" (Stay here, eat meat, tasty, and get strong!)

Her throat sounded to the strange male with white hair as she continued to hunt the detestable humans, yet suddenly the man rammed into her side.

'It hurts...'

The first time she felt pain since transforming.

'I can't move!? Get off me; eat the meat!'

The male held down Maria, his eyes strange and green, almost drawing her in as she tried to claw at him, bite him to let him understand she needed to kill those humans for revenge and their dinner.

"Grrram!" (Must kill, enemy! Let go!)

Suddenly a sensation she had never felt, even in those foggy memories, filled her body, pleasure and euphoria beyond that of when she transformed, the delight her entire body as the man with glazed eyes bit into her neck.

'There is no pain?'

His sharp teeth began to tear at her flesh, and his tongue slid along her broken skin, slurping up her blood like a smoothie.

Maria felt a strange feeling, her mind became slightly clearer, and memories of the past began to surface, from the man holding her down's name and various vague memories.

She saw a male with a weapon coming to kill her, Maria tried to inform him with her grunts, but his teeth bit down on her voicebox, stopping her from even grunting.

'Is this my end, once again?'

Defeated thoughts filled her mind; she was no longer a mindless killer.

The next few moments happened too quickly, as her next moment of clarity was filled with extreme bliss, her mouth filled with sweet and delicious ambrosia, far more delicious than any of the "meals" she had eaten in the past.

Her body screamed to devour more!

More!

However, her bliss was interrupted as a bitch kicked her away, slamming her into a wall.

Maria was now filled with a sense of self, more focus as she looked at the male, his wild and handsome face, sexy scars and bleeding neck.

The two stared at each other as she realised.

Wild.

Captivating.

Her Master!
