QT: Against My Will-Chapter 658 - 13.23 - Shining Beacon + THE CAST (A/N)
Laura and Aria snickered from the safety of the space’s quarantine (which looked like a cosy living room), watching the male beastman’s heartbroken face.
"Remember how he tried to kill us? Now he wants us to live. Your blow jobs must be heavenly, sister," Aria cackled, "I wish I had a dick to experience your skills too."
Laura threw a pillow in her friend’s direction, "Shut it, perve. Is sex all you can ever think of?"
Aria jumped onto the pillow to catch it and hugged it to her chest with a pout, "Don’t tell me you are not in love with his cock. Your moans and screams were louder than mine. And the way you ride him ...you are definitely an addict."
Laura huffed and looked back at Tyrion, watching him fall to his knees, his body trembling from the shock of losing them, "That’s all he got, a big dick. The rest of him is just a nuisance."
They both laughed.
"It was a nice relief though," Laura admitted, stretching her limbs and smiling in satisfaction. "I won’t mind coming back here for another vacation."
Compared to the ABO world, this one was heaven. Not being stuck in a dirty swamp surrounded by deadly monsters, fighting for their life every second.
"Our Lady promised us a cute obedient male as a reward. I thought about it, and someone, who could stay at home and take care of our siblings while we are busy, would be the best," Laura said.
Aria’s eyes twinkled with joy, "The wolf beastmen would make perfect househusbands. They can cook, clean, plant crops, tend to the animals, and are very family-oriented."
The two girls looked at each other, thinking the same thing: wolf beastmen for the win! Fluffy tails and pointy ears!
They couldn’t imagine leaving Tyrion with their little siblings. He was too untrustworthy and violent, and they didn’t want to return home one day and find everyone massacred. So no, never!
"No second chances?" Shina appeared inside the quarantine, sitting on the armchair with her legs crossed, "He seems to regret his decisions."
"Does he?" Aria pulled up her knees, hugging them to her chest. "At first, we felt bad for him when you tried to torture him into leaving you, and even went out of our way to help him. But when every attempt to show him love and affection got trampled on and returned with violence, it became difficult to muster any sympathy."
Bing Shi ordered them to act like Tyrion was their destined soulmate, the extreme version of love bombing. The more resistance he put, the more aggressive they got. Make him realize you can’t force someone to love you no matter what.
She wasn’t sure if Tyrion came to like Aria and Laura, but he for sure came to hate the "soulmate" he was so obsessed with. Dai An’s actions were the last straw, and the obsession broke.
[Side quest: End Tyrion’s obsession with his mate. COMPLETED. Reward: 5000p]
Bing Shi felt the soul relaxing after Tyrion broke the soulmate bond with it. It wasn’t hard to guess why it had such a desperate need to run from him.
If the people around Bing Shi weren’t stronger than him (Ru Quan, Xuan Mu, Ziek), they would all be dead. Tyrion was an unpredictable lunatic, capable of killing people close to her in the name of jealousy or suspicion.
Bing Shi didn’t want to imagine what he had put his ex soulmate through to refuse to reincarnate with him.
Laura sighed, "That other woman (Lissandra) still seems to want him in her collection. Does she think she can tame him with a sprinkle of care and understanding? He is not polygamous. For him, there are only two options: you are only his or you are not."
"Maybe she is special enough to be the only one?" Bing Shi suggested, not really caring what would happen to the woman, but she had to make sure the male leads stayed alive.
The male leads were currently weaker than Tyrion, and it would be a problem if he killed one of them in order to be with Hikari.
"Everyone is having a blast," Aria said, watching the screen and pointing at the feed Henry had sent them.
None of Bing Shi’s subordinates questioned her relationship with Ru Quan, Xuan Mu, Ziek and Dai An. Shina was known to be quite slutty after all.
Juliet, Liam, Alain, Douglas and Henry successfully kidnapped the female lead after obtaining their third stripe, had the fourth male lead Moyu rescue her from their hands, and were now enjoying a barbeque on the beach.
This world offered delicacies they had never tasted before, and they were in the middle of trying out everything they could get their hands on.
Alain was the one who was cooking, and everyone else was either helping or eating and drinking to their heart’s content.
They were giving the female lead and male leads some alone time to bond with each other, before they attempted to kidnap her again.

Dai An watched the fire dancing in the night sky, perched on Ru Quan’s shoulders, "Raise and behold. It is the fire of change. The two females have been punished and are no longer the same as they once were. From now on, they are males like the rest of you and shall experience your daily struggles and pain."
The beastman population stared in awe, dropping to their knees and bowing in reverence. They were under the impression that those two females had mistreated Tyrion, and their punishment to become males made them cry out of happiness, "Thank you, oh Great God! Thank you!"
Tyrion frowned at the scene in front of his eyes. Once the smoke cleared away and revealed the two lion males instead of two females, he was utterly confused. He quickly made his way to them.
Laura and Aria woke up from a dazed state, looking around and blinking slowly, and then at the crowd before them. The men were still on their knees, praising the statue before them.
Tyrion observed them closely, and his confusion only grew, "You two..." he trailed off, unable to finish his question.
Aria and Laura touched their new bodies, feeling the new and different parts. Their hands traveled over their chests, not sensing their soft round breasts anymore. They were replaced by a firm muscular chest.
As their hands moved further down, they felt something between their legs. They grabbed it, feeling its shape and size, and then looked at each other.
They acted as if they didn’t remember anything before their transformation. They didn’t even remember that they were males from the start.
It was enough to trick everyone.

The male group continued to follow Dai An on her journey, leaving behind the statue of the god. A god that had satisfied and appeased their injustice they felt towards the females.
Dai An didn’t want to promote the killing of females who mistreated males, so she hoped the feral males out there would bring the kidnapped females to her, so she could "switch" their bodies. An interesting experiment she was eager to see the results of.
Ru Quan was less and less surprised that she ended in an underworld prison. Her only limit was her powers, not her imagination.
He moved her from his shoulder onto his forearm, and she snuggled closer to him. She made everyone believe that she was a male in the female’s body, and how she also went through a similar trial, which resulted in her current form.
She could have changed their opinion of females for better if she wanted to, but she chose not to. It was the female lead’s job to be a shining example of womanhood, and not hers.
"I hope not all males will suddenly want to experience being a female," Ru Quan whispered under his breath.
"That’s why you come in," Dai An replied with a small smile, stroking his chest with her pointer finger, "A male who chose hardship instead of comfort, who didn’t take the easy way out. Instead of cursing your fate, you fought against it, you tried to make it better. I hope more males will follow in your footsteps."
Ru Quan’s steps faltered at her words, and he looked at her in disbelief.
"Bing Shi is not the only one I want them to look up to. You are a shining beacon among the males, and you deserve the same praise," she said as if it was nothing. As if her words were not affecting him in any way. As if her words were not making him feel like he was on top of the world.
Even Xuan Mu and Ziek were a little moved by Dai An’s words, their chest swelling with pride.
"..." The group of males watched how the bunny male carried Dai An into the woods, ordering them to keep watch as he had some important matters to discuss with her in private.
