Extra's Harem: Invincibility Starts with Marriage and lots of Children-Chapter 142- A Sudden Tragedy

[ Initiating Marriage Bond With Death Beast ]

'Death Beast? I should really give her a name now.' Thinking it might be due to her appearance as a skeleton, I have generalized by either calling her Miss Skull or Death Beast. I realized that now being my wife, I should give her a name.

[ New Trait Acquired: Undying Nexus ]

(A permanent tether between the Host and the undead spouse. If either is "killed," the other absorbs part of the damage and temporarily suppresses death for 10 seconds.)

'Huh?' As I stood, a window suddenly appeared, similar to the ones that came in the case of Valeriana, not the other two—neither Olea nor Aleriana.

The system explained that the reason was due to a deficiency of Qi and that I was not granted such rewards from them.

But I knew this bastard was just biased towards women with qualification above 95, like those fucking authors who write an average book with a paywall and then add privilege tiers while expecting readers to pay for their inconsistent chapter updates.

Fuck, only I know how it feels to wake in the morning, take a dump, and think to read my favorite book's chapter only to find the author went on hiatus for some pesky study or exam reason.

Forgetting that, I focused on the rewarded ability. As I saw how the damage that causes death inflicted on either of us would get transferred to the other, I really felt this was a threat considering this was the same as Valeriana, where her death might lead to mine.

But as I thought about Valeriana, a realization hit me: wasn't I immune to death-related abilities?

Indeed, as the memory recollected from the day when I first married that reaper, I remembered that among the rewards was one which made me resistant to death-related abilities.

'Hey system, aren't I resistant to death-related abilities?' Yes, I inquired to confirm it.

[ Yes, you are resistant, making it so that if she gets a fatal wound, for 10 seconds her damage would be transferred to you, but given you are resistant to it, you will be fine, and even she will too for 10 seconds. ]

'Haha, now you seem to give some overpower shit, System.' As I processed the words of the system, I realized that if, in a case where a battle occurs and there was a large attack that led to Miss Skull's death, she would become immune to that death for 10 seconds, giving me time to make her enter my domain and reset her instantly—a type of invincibility.

She cannot die until I can reach her.

'I need some teleportation artifact... but,' I thought about how the only thing I needed was to get my hands on some such artifact which can teleport her directly into my domain whenever she is about to die. With that combo, it would be like me getting a living-undying weapon.

[ Domain Expansion: +7 meters ]

(Your domain now expands further.)

[ Authority Synchronization: Soulbind Link Established ]

(You can now share sight, instinct, and battlefield awareness with your undead wife. Sensory perception extends to the edge of her awareness.)

'Oh, what the...' As this reward was granted, I felt my head becoming heavier as if drowning in a black sea. But soon enough, I realized that this feeling was not mine; instead, it was that woman, making me feel hollowness with no memories whatsoever, as if everything within my mind was blank, filled with fear, and just a sight of white shadows amidst the black view.

'Sh-she can't see anything?' And then I realized that she was not able to see like humans. The only thing she saw was in black and white, where white represented the shadows of humans and things, and black was the background. It was confusing and something that seemed to rile my heart as I realized how in pain she was.

Her whole existence seemed to be meaningless as I felt her emotions, which were too messed up. But one thing was clear: she was confused, very confused, with having nothing except looking at me with a positive view, as if I and the lying cockroach on my head were her only supporters in this dark world.

[ Deathlord's Blessing: Necrotic Immunity (Lesser) ]

(The Host becomes immune to low-tier necrotic, plague, and corpse-based effects. Direct touch from undead no longer causes corruption—ability rank will grow with the strength of the wife.)

[ Dominion Reinforcement: Tier-1 (Graveborne Variant) ]

(Your domain now has immunity against the entrance of any metaphysical entity like spirits and ghosts, including any corruptive-natured undead entity.)

'Huh, HUH!? This shit...' As I saw the last reward, it made one of my fears go away. Considering the last time's chill on my body, I had been having some bad dreams about ghosts.

But now, with this particular reassurance that such entities could not even enter my domain, which had already extended to 23 meters, I felt delighted.

"H...ur...t"

Suddenly pulling me out of my thoughts was her cry as I felt sudden, intense pain clearly transferred through her instinct, causing me to focus back as her body swiftly reset without me even commanding it. It appeared the system was efficient in this way.

"Hm..."

Her eyes, though hollow with nothing but a black skeleton and an empty cranium emitting a black aura, turned towards her bony hand, which was clearly touching her ribs as she felt the pain vanish, a clear feeling of happiness which I sensed.

There was a flicker of guilt in me as I stretched my hand and placed it over her head.

The feeling on my palm was hard, the finger grazing over the tough layer of bone. Yet, there was sympathy flickering in me. Maybe it was due to the responsibility I took in the form of marriage.

Love is a fleeting emotion; it changes with time and can be born between two partners once they start to care for and understand each other. But for now, this marriage bond, even though I knew she didn't feel anything, let alone this marriage, she was not even aware of her own existence.

But whatever it was, she was now my responsibility.

"Ashmira... it will be your name from now on, a miracle born from ashes. Do you like it?" Even though I did not expect any answer from her, still, with a flicker in my eyes, I gave her a name, looking soothingly with a smile.

'!'

'Huh... what the,' It was sudden but an intense surge as my head seemed to be hit by some deep emotion born from within. As my body stumbled back, my eyes rolled as everything turned blank within a few seconds. The last thing I saw was the ceiling before my body hit the floor, my head colliding with the rough surface.

My whole body seemed to be paralyzed, but slowly, my mind was losing consciousness.

'S-system...' I could not even call out the system's name as hard as the door of the room burst open.

Bam!

With my vision fading, as I lost consciousness, I heard the cries of my wives for what felt like the last flickering millisecond.

"KYL....."
