Chapter 1157 The Start Of It All 1

On paper, this wasn't a problem. Two people having a crush on the same person did not always lead to those overly exaggerated and melodramatic love triangles like drama movies or shows portrayed. 

What usually happens was that the loved person would choose one, the other would get hurt but eventually move on. This was what Dante and Dominic expected to happen, but they underestimated the connection they had. 

Dante and Dominic were known as the Brute Duo. Even at the age of 14, the two boys were built like linebackers, extremely broad shoulders, buff and muscular bodies as well as messy black hair. 

They were always together, did everything as a duo and caused trouble all over Italy together. One time, when Benito Mussolini was in bed with one of his women, they barged in and laughed uproariously at his small PP before leaving, causing Mussolini to have a severe trauma and lack of confidence. 

Even more well known were the dual flowers of Fyre and Lilith, one with huge breasts that were no different from a cow and one with a thick and round buttocks as if she were a pickup truck. They were young but obviously, Lineage members grew faster after awakening their bloodline. 

Fyre and Lilith were just about as close to each other as Dante and Dominic were. However, rather than cause trouble, they developed a very cruel streak from a young age and performed various atrocities together that would chill the hearts of others, especially once World War 2 broke out. 

Dante and Dominic were dispatched to the frontlines to assist the Italian assault, but they were beaten back by the Pangu Lineage fighters who were dispatched to counter them. Using the chance while they were away, Japan launched an invasion of China with some of the Amaterasu Lineage warriors in the lead.

This caused the Pangu Lineage to become furious and red-eyed, quickly abandoning that fight to return home and beat back the Amaterasu assault. The emperor at the time, Hirohito, was only a peripheral member of the Amaterasu Lineage who had less than 1% bloodline purity, so he was tossed down to that position. 

His greed grew seeing that the country was suppressing their opponents and wanted to make contributions. The closest to them at the time geographically was America who had not revealed their military fangs to the world much at the time. 

As such, he arbitrarily launched an attack that infuriated the Lineage-less Americans. At the time, not only Hirohito, but even the Amaterasu Lineage who heard about it were full of disdain. 

A mere country without a resident Lineage in control, you dared to bark loudly? Even though they began to take losses in the battlefield in terms of troops, those were only normal humans. If it wasn't for the fact that their fighting force was still engaged with the Pangu Lineage, how could these flimsy Americans posture here?

America then asked the fateful question: will you stop since we beat you? Not only Hirohito, but the Amaterasu Lineage laughed until their eyes were full of tears and they could not breathe. They puffed out their chest and stated that they would never stop. 

America nodded its head and called forth its secret weapon, Codename Oppenheimer!

BOOM!

BANG!

The entire world was silent as its eyes bulged. The various Lineages fighting or assisting the growing war from the various palaces in the world had their expressions change greatly. How could those measly humans achieve this? 

Was this that funny 'technology' thing that had been coming up recently? But while that strange and mind boggling stuff showed promise, how could it achieve this much progress and power! 

Only someone with the power of the Progenitor could make such a explosion and unleash such power, not to mention survive it. Immediately, the various Lineage sobered up and retreated from the battlefield on all sides, establishing a lockdown and a new rule to remove themselves from the eyes of the sub-human powers. 

Especially since they had the Amaterasu Lineage as a lesson. It was unknown if it was destiny, luck or someone topped them off, but the two cities that were decimated were two strongholds of the Amaterasu Lineage with many of their trained warriors. 

As a result, the Amaterasu Lineage lost more than 60% of its combat power. Hirohito had coughed many wads of blood since he heard the news and became dispirited. Many of the clan members who had lost family and friends were furious and decided to blame him who had ordered the first strike. 

However since they were weakened and especially did not want to attract attention from the sub-humans who were growing in power, they left him alive to bear the brunt of the repercussions and take heat off the clan at the back. 

Around this time, Fyre had left the Lineage to try and increase her power. She joined the Germans who were tasked with gassing the enemies of Hitler, and the personnel then were filled with fear and horror as they watched Loving Aunt handle it herself. 

After all, no matter how good their chemistry, the Nazis could not create a toxin that could achieve the effects that were hyped in the history books. It required something ahead of the time and far more treacherous. 

Luckily, Fyre was in possession of the Dark Swamp Serpent with the most lethal toxin, so a simple round of its breath into those chambers and the screams that ensued were enough to cause the sub-human personnel from the army to have nightmares for the rest of their lives. 

Meanwhile, Fyre happily collected all the lifeforce from these skills and managed to use the Ultimate Manifestation technique to bring her Blue Water Adder into the real world permanently. After that, she left the losing army and returned home by the order of the clan. 

When she came home, expecting to see Dante and tell him about her achievement, which would impress him and win over his heart since Dante revered power, she was stopped by Dominic who had a troubled expression on his face. 

She was curious as to why he did this until Dominic sighed and decided to spill the beans. Lilith had always been in the clan since she could not benefit from the fighting as a Fallen Angel with psychic power while Dante had return more than a year ago after being recalled. 

While Fyre had been slaughtering millions of innocents to upgrade her power, Lilith had finally gotten some time away from her sister to interact with Dante and woo him. Now that they were all young adults around the same age as the Draco and Eva of the current era, they were fully grown. 

Unfortunately for Fyre, Dante grew up to be an ass-man, and Lilith's ass which was known to be the most spectacular in the entire Lineage within the last 300 years, coupled with her seductive and charming nature as a higher rank succubus, how could Dante hold back?

In fact, Dominic didn't want to get involved in this and even felt it wasn't a big deal. After all, Dante had not made any promises to either of them neither was he obligated to return both their feelings just because they liked him. 

The reason why he stopped Fyre was simply because Lilith had tricked Dante into her room and they were currently undergoing some gymnastics exercises. Dominic did not want Fyre to barge into that scene as the consequences would be unknown. 

When she heard this, Fyre's heart was shattered. She was in a daze for the entire day until Lilith finally returned the next day. When she saw her radiant and satisfied younger sister, a hint of hatred and anger appeared in Fyre's heart. 

She and Lilith argued that day, and Lilith felt that she had done nothing wrong. All's fair in love and war. However, how could Fyre, who felt like she had been cucked, understand? As such, the two descended into blows but Lilith could not match Fyre who was a combat genius after all. 

She was beaten black and blue by her older sister. Dante and Dominic heard the commotions and came over. Dominic instantly understood that he absolutely could not take a side, as his affiliation with the Sinful Demon made him more savvy towards social relationships and feelings. 

However, Dante was not good at that as his Hellfire Demon was just a combat brute. He was very strong and good at fighting, but not very savvy with politics or the like, so he directly jumped in and tried to stop Fyre, the aggressor. 

He did not do this because he favored Lilith more, but because according to his simple male logic, Fyre was stronger and was brutalizing Lilith so she needed to be stopped. What was the point of stopping Lilith who was getting her ass beat?

However, the enraged Fyre did not see it that way. Not only had she gone so far into the darkness to impress Dante, but her sister had worked behind her back to seduce him and now he jumped into save her?

As such, she completely exploded and went berserk, unleashing her full power against both Dante and Lilith. Dante's face changed as he was barely able to stave Fyre off, not because he was weaker, but because he was confused and relatively level headed, not understanding why Fyre was so crazy nor was he willing to go all out against her. 

Eventually, after a hot battle, Fyre was exhausted and left with a cold look at the new couple. Dante was fatigued and still shocked, not understanding what has led to this assault. 

Lilith was in pain and was furious at her older sister who had hit her so hard. She swore never to talk to her again and took Dante away in a huff, but Dominic stopped them. 

He glared at Lilith and told her to go back before pulling his brother away. At that time, Dante was certainly interested in Lilith and felt budding feelings, but his loyalty to his brother was higher so he left with Dominic. 

This infuriated Lilith who began to dislike Dominic a little and she stormed off. As for Dominic, he sat his elder brother down and explained everything from top to bottom, the cause and effect as well as the consequences. 

After listening to this Dante was shocked. He hadn't thought that far. After all, even though he was somewhat aware that the two girls liked him, it was Lilith who pushed herself onto him. Even if it would be a problem, in Dante's mind, he could just take both sisters into his arms and marry them both. 

Dominic was speechless. With how close the two sisters were and the strength of their feelings for him, if he had approached them and proposed this, there was a 80% chance they would have agreed. 

However, his brother chose the worst way to go about this by succumbing to one before the other. Now that option which had a strong chance of success was completely impossible and whether the two sisters would even be neutral - much less friendly - to each other was up in the air. 

Helpless, Dante could only consult his younger brother on what to do. Dominic was a bit lost because even though he was more savvy, he was still a young man like Dante lacking in life experience. 

How could he have all the answers? As much as he wanted to help his big brother, he was helpless. As such Dominic decided to stay away from the two sisters as he felt like they would only cause more strife with their growing issues. 

For Dante, who was at the center of this storm and the cause of it, it was not possible for him to step out and he was dragged right into it. Lilith became more impudent by continually seeking him out and trying to seduce him while openly showing her attachment to him when Fyre was around. 

As for Fyre, she could only clench her fists in anger, but she seemed to become outwardly cold and callous. Part of her reputation as a wicked woman in the Lineage as an instructor was born because of her strictness and hard handed actions to trainees.
