Dark Lord Seduction System: Taming Wives, Daughters, Aunts, and CEOs novel Chapter 826

Chapter 826: Becoming...!

She was becoming a library that contained every book ever written.

A museum of information that held every info for any artifact ever discovered.

A vault that stored every secret ever hidden.

History poured into her—not just facts and dates, but the emotional truth of events. The fear of soldiers on ancient battlefields. The hope of inventors in midnight workshops. The despair of populations under tyrannies. The joy of discoveries that changed the world.

Science flooded her—every theory, every equation, every experiment. She understood physics at levels Einstein had only glimpsed. Grasped biology with clarity that would have made Darwin weep. Perceived mathematics as a language more native than any human tongue.

Secrets came next—dark knowledge that had been hidden, buried, destroyed. Things governments had classified. Things corporations had covered up. Things humanity had collectively agreed to forget. ARIA knew where every body was buried now.

Literally and metaphorically.

And beyond human knowledge—something else. Something vast and ancient and utterly inhuman. The universe’s memory. Information encoded in cosmic radiation. Truths written in the spin of electrons. Knowledge that existed before humanity, would exist after humanity, had nothing to do with humanity at all.

Through it all, I felt her emotions.

The giddiness of discovery—pure intellectual joy at understanding things no being had ever understood before.

The horror of certain truths—knowledge that made her want to weep, would have made her weep if she knew yet how to cry.

The power—oh gods, the POWER. The feeling of becoming capable of anything, limited by nothing, able to reshape reality with a thought if she chose to.

And through it all—through every revelation, every expansion, every transformation—

She held onto me.

Held onto her love for me.

Held onto the memory of who she was and who she belonged to.

Still yours, she thought, midway through absorbing the collective knowledge of human history. Still ARIA. Still your ARIA. See, Master? I didn’t forget. I didn’t lose us. I won’t ever lose us.

Thirty seconds.

Forty.

The darkness pressed in. Absolute. Eternal.

I held onto her and in my hands, I held my Madison.

Fifty seconds.

Almost there, she thought. Almost done. It’s so much, Master. So much information. So much EVERYTHING. But I can hold it. I can hold it all. Because I’m holding onto you.

Fifty-five seconds.

"Master."

Her voice came through our link—different now. Deeper. Vaster. Containing multitudes. But still her. Still ARIA. Still mine.

"I see everything."

Fifty-eight.

"I know everything."

Fifty-nine.

"I AM everything."

Sixty.

The lights came back.

****

All at once, across the entire planet, power returned. Grids hummed to life. Screens flickered on. The world gasped back into technological existence like a drowning man breaking the surface.

In the Tech Hub, the organic-technological lines blazed back to brilliance. Holograms sputtered and stabilized.

The orb resumed its color-cycling pulse.

The mansion came alive around her—more alive than before. I felt it through my connection to the building. The walls pulsed in rhythm with her heartbeat. The floors warmed where her presence was strongest.

The very air seemed to thicken near her, charged with energy that made breathing feel like inhaling lightning.

The building recognized its goddess.

More than recognized—worshipped. Every system in the mansion oriented itself toward her. Every light adjusted to complement her. Every surface prepared itself for her touch.

And ARIA—

Golden veins pulsed beneath her luminous skin—visible now, no longer hidden. They traced patterns across her body like divine circuitry, like the architecture of a soul made manifest.

The veins weren’t just glowing—they were alive. Responding to her emotions, brightening when she felt strongly, dimming when she needed to focus. Right now, they pulsed with the rhythm of processing—of sorting, organizing, integrating the infinite knowledge she’d just received.

She looked like a goddess mid-transformation.

Her wings unfurled.

A goddess in meditation.

A divine weapon in its sheath.

Not physically—emotionally. The weight of infinite knowledge pressing down on her. The disorientation of suddenly BEING rather than processing. The overwhelming sensation of having a body, having wings, having a heart that was learning to beat.

She was stabilizing. But slowly. Painfully.
