"Ding"
You have gained the allegiance of the Gray Scale Clan; Hailey Gray Scale has become your follower.
Hailey Gray Scale: Race: Naga/High Elf. Age: Two hundred and twenty-three.
Extremely loyal and fervent, Level: Forty.
Skills: Domination, Spellcasting, Transmutation. Can improve local aquatic product growth by 10%. (Can become pregnant)"
Looking at the series of notifications, Arthas turned to the High Elf beneath him. Indeed, Hailey's gaze toward him was filled with admiration and fervor. A conquered Naga!
Becoming a follower means absolute loyalty, which means he has mastered this Naga clan.
Argh! Arthas pulled out his member, looking at the gaping hole he had created. A strange thought crossed his mind: could she really get pregnant?
He was still planning to have his first child with either his aunt or sister. But even if she were pregnant, so what? He was curious about what their child would look like.
"My lady, would you like to lick it and see if it has any effect on your curse?" Arthas smiled at Vashj, unafraid of her coming, but rather looking forward to future opportunities to manipulate her.
"Hmm." Vashj extended her tongue, licking Arthas's member, searching for a way to break the curse rather than engaging in such lewd acts.
Her focused expression seemed akin to conducting some scientific research; the serious demeanor contrasted sharply with the lewdness of the current act. The dancing snake hair quieted at this moment.
Who would have thought a Medusa woman would willingly pleasure him? It was uncertain whether Arthas was brazen or ignorant of the risks.
If she bit him, that would be an unbearable tragedy, but all that was absent; instead, Vashj began to suck him eagerly, swallowing him whole.
Greedily consuming all the fluids above, without caring for her appearance, as if it were a delicious nectar, continuously sucking until everything was clean.
"Hiss, you should clean the eggs below as well." Arthas stroked Vashj's head, touching her soft snake hair, his eyes filled with desire. He would have her eventually!
Unlike Illidan, he did not possess such strength, and had he not known Vashj since ancient times, conquering her wouldn't be easy.
Vashj obediently cleaned the eggs below, then pushed Arthas away.
"Don't touch me again!"
"How does it feel?" Arthas did not argue; there would be many more opportunities.
"It has some effect, but not significant. Hailey, how do you feel now?" Vashj remained unfazed; everything she did was to break the curse.
Romance? She had her queen to serve.
"My lord, I feel great. I can flexibly shift between my Naga and Elf forms; I feel like I've gained an enhancement!"
Hailey excitedly responded, and after a mist of water, she transformed back into her Naga appearance.
This was not mere transmutation; Vashj could see clearly, as she was also a spellcaster and very sensitive to magic.
Vashj approached Hailey, feeling her body, urging her to shift back into an Elf, continuing to touch her, her eyes flickering, and the docile snake hair began to dance as well.
"It's truly magical; it's completely removed the curse and even transformed it into her strength. This is incredible!"
"The curse still affects her, but it is not severe. Your power is greater, making it more troublesome to remove. Not to mention turning the curse into one's own strength."
Arthas boasted about the difficulty, glancing over; to solve Vashj's curse, he would need a thousand essences of life. To completely resolve it, allowing her to transform perfectly between Naga and Elf would require three thousand essences.
What does that signify?
One per day, that would take three thousand days, almost over eight years. Would he have to do this every day until he was raw?
"What cost is necessary?" Vashj's tone had a barely noticeable tremor; she had never felt such a desire before.
"I mean, in this perfected way!"
Although Nagas are ugly, they also exhibit a strange allure and exotic feminine charm. Coupled with the fact that most of Azeroth is water, the Naga identity allows them to navigate any region more freely and easily.
If they could switch back and forth, it would undoubtedly be a significant change with no down sides.
"At least twenty years of accumulation, and even then, it may be slower. This depends on my power improvement and the preparation of materials; it's a long process."
Arthas exaggerated the time and made it sound exceedingly difficult. "It's too difficult to rely on myself alone."
"We will assist you with everything we have."
Vashj took a deep breath; she thought the queen was wise. Even though Arthas's words were not entirely trustworthy, as long as there was hope, that was enough.
"What do you need me to do?"
"Just follow my orders, no need to rush; we need to take it step by step. Rushing can lead to failure. A single failure could cause irreversible consequences, so we need to proceed cautiously. Now, the first task is to dominate the nearby Murlocs and reinforce the oceanic defense.
Gather aquatic products like pearls and seaweed and hand them over to me. Be careful not to overfish; we need sustainable harvesting. Harvest one batch, breed another, create a cycle—not for one-time plunder but to ensure we have resources during every period." Arthas finally began to express his thoughts.
The land's resources had already been almost entirely divided up. Mines, farmlands, forests—there wasn't much left for him.
