Chapter 202 Harem
Eleanor looked around, still in awe of the world Julian had created. "I can't believe Julian managed to create all this," she said, shaking her head in disbelief.
Isabel and Lisa nodded in agreement. Isabel added, "Yes, it feels so unreal. It's like we have stepped into a dream."
Eleanor chuckled, then teasingly looked at Lisa. "Seems like Julian already conquered you, Duchess."
Lisa's cheeks flushed a deep red, and she quickly looked away. "Well, what can I say..." she muttered.
Isabel watching her reaction and laughed lightly. "You don't have to be embarrassed, Mom. It's obvious you are already taken with him."
Lisa shot a playful glance at Isabel and said, "And you sure played a huge part in that, my dear daughter."
Isabel chuckled, her eyes twinkling with mischief. "Well, how can I not follow my husband's lead?" she replied with a grin.
"Not only yours, but ours," Lisa said as she winked at Eleanor. The three of them burst into laughter.
Lisa's teasing tone returned as she turned to Eleanor. "Enough about us, but you too, Eleanor? He didn't even pardon his own sister."
Eleanor blushed, her face turning slightly red as she glanced away. "I—well, I am his sister," she stammered. "Of course, our bond will be deeper than anyone else's."
Just then, Eleanor's eyes lit up as she saw Julian's figure in the distance. She jumped to her feet, her voice tinged with excitement, "Julian! You've returned! Come, join us!"
Julian smiled and walked over, sitting besides them.
Isabel turned to him with a playful grin. "You sure gave us an unimaginable surprise."
Lisa nodded, "Yes, this... I never could've imagined something like this in my wildest dreams."
Julian leaned back, a slow smile spread across his face as he looked at the three women. "You are my women. You deserve far more than a mere dream."
Isabel raised an eyebrow with a playful glint in her eyes. "More, you say? What could be grander than this?"
Julian leaned in, his voice lowering, "The world you see before you... it's just the beginning. You are not just here to live in it—you are here to rule it by my side."
Eleanor's heart raced at his words, the excitement in her eyes only deepening. Lisa's smile grew as she felt the weight of his promise and the power in his words.
"Enough about this," Julian said. "Since you all have been assigned your castles, you now have the power to shape this world as you see fit."
The three women paused as their minds raced with the implications of his words. They had never imagined that they would go from being simple women of noble birth to goddesses of an entire reality.
Eleanor was the first to speak. "So, you mean... I can create mountains?"
Julian gave her an encouraging nod. "Yes, try it."
"But how?" Eleanor asked, her brow furrowing as she looked to him for guidance.
"Close your eyes, focus, and feel the connection to this world. Every element, every force here is tied to your will. Shape it to whatever you want." Julian instructed.
Eleanor hesitated for a moment before shutting her eyes. She tried to sense the pulse of the world around her, reaching for that connection Julian had spoken of.
The world was still and silent for a moment, and then, like a quiet hum in the back of her mind, she felt it. The connection was like a string of thread that tied her to the world.
With a deep focus, Eleanor pictured a towering mountain rising from the earth. She imagined sharp cliffs and snow-covered peaks.
To her amazement, the ground beneath her feet began to tremble and when she opened her eyes, the landscape had changed. In the distance, a towering mountain stood where there had once been none. The peak of the mountain was snow covered, giving it a beautiful and majestic sight.
The three women stared at it with visible shock and mouths agape.
Julian's voice broke the silence. "See? You are creators of this world. You shape it, how you want."
Eleanor stood, still in awe of what she had just done. "This... is incredible. I never thought something like this was possible."
Isabel stepped forward, her eyes flashing with excitement. "So, we can all do this? Shape the world however we want?"
Julian nodded. "Exactly. Your castles are more than just homes; they are the center of your domain."
His tone turned more serious as he continued. "But remember, don't overdo it. Let the world evolve on its own. And don't try creating life—it's something that happens according to the natural order. If you try to disturb that balance, you might face backlash."
The three women nodded understanding the gravity of his words. They had just unlocked a power that could reshape the world, but they knew there were limits to how far they should push it. The natural balance of things was something to respect, not tamper with.
"Understood," Eleanor said quietly, her voice reflecting both the excitement and caution she felt.
Isabel and Lisa nodded as well, each of them feeling the weight of the power in their hands.
Eleanor was lost in her thought as she asked, "So, how does life create itself in this world?"
Julian leaned back as a mischievous smile formed on his lips. "It evolves naturally, along with the world itself," he explained. "Life finds its way in its own time and process. But," he added, "we can use other methods... like breeding."
The three women couldn't help but laugh, the atmosphere lightening in an instant.

Eleanor looked at Julian with a smile, her eyes twinkling with both amusement and affection. "Well, we're already carrying your child," she said with a wink. "That means we've started to populate this world already. Soon enough, it will be filled."
Isabel glanced at her mother, Lisa, who was sitting beside her. Her eyes narrowed playfully. "And you too, Mother?" she teased.
Lisa blushed deeply, the color spreading across her cheeks as she stammered, "Well... yes," she admitted with a shy laugh. "It seems like we're all contributing to the future of this world, in more ways than one."
The three women laughed together, the conversation taking on a more intimate and playful tone as they embraced the new reality Julian had brought them into.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
