Hope you enjoy and please review:
Within a large valley filled with an ominous black mist laid a cave within which a powerful aura surged.
Deep within, past the terrifying stalagmites and stalactites, was a large open area filled with crystals, sparkling an ominous black light with hints of red. The crystals gave off a frightening amount of magic power but it bore no consequence to the figures that rested there.
"What is the issue?" Asked a handsome young man, seemingly in his twenties, with back length silver hair tied into a braid. He wore an exquisite silver robe with detailed accessories, giving him a very regal and elegant look.
"We have detected some foreign magic around this area. We may have been discovered." Said a black-cloaked figure in a deep tone.
"Hmm…so soon? I'm sure we did not leave a single trace." The young man muttered to himself.
"Keep an eye out and the moment you see anything, let me know. The process must not be interrupted. We only need to hold off for less than a week."
The cloaked figure left right after leaving the silver-haired man to his own thoughts. He walked towards a section in this large area of the cave where a particularly large crystal stood. It was as tall as fifteen meters, wide as ten meters and weighed dozens of tons.
Surrounding the crystal were black chains that seemed to originate from a pale, naked female-figure bound to the crystal. The long sun-kissed blonde hair draping off the woman's head seemed dull, as if loss of all vitality. Her body was shriveled and her skin wrinkly. Her once magnificent large, perky breasts now sagged. The woman looked old and feeble, one that need extreme care to stay alive.
The silver-haired man stood in front of the naked figure and frowned. "Once so beautiful and now…only a husk. If you were not necessary for my plans…I would have kept you as my slave." Dark lust flashed in his eyes before he left.
The woman's eyes fluttered open with sadness, resentment, anger and most of all regret as she watched the retreating back of the silver-haired man responsible for her imprisonment.
I'm sorry…Kunou.
The thought seemed to be the only thing on her mind as her eyes closed again.
With Emrys sometime earlier
"Fuck…"
Emrys groaned out painfully as his cock went limp not because it was no longer capable of violating Nualia's tight hot pussy but because Emrys had completely exhausted his body and magic power. He felt as if he had gone through an extremely tough battle that had made him use every single ounce of his strength and trump cards.
But regardless of his boneless exhaustion, a happy smile was evident on his face as he gazed into the eyes of the glazed Nualia who looked as if she woke up from a wonderful dream.
"Mmmm…" The dark elf moaned in delight as her body felt on cloud nine. It wasn't the pleasuring sensation of having Emrys' cock inside of her but rather a sense of content and happiness.
The feeling made her want to lull back into sleep, especially with the way the powerful hands were caressing her in a gentle manner.
"Time to wake up." Emrys planted a small kiss on her lips and sent a small jolt of magic power, the only drop he had left into her.
That seemed to have done the trick as Nualia's eyes slowly gained back clarity as her mind recovered.
"What happened?" She couldn't help but ask and then yawn cutely.
Emrys drank in this sight as it was not often the incarnation of lust acted so cute and innocently.
"You passed out for the first-time during sex." Emrys' grin was so smug, it threatened to split his face. Not many could say they managed to make a girl pass out from sex because it was just that good. And that was the case for mortals.
In the case of Nualia…to be able to knock out someone who literally molded their body for the act of sex and seemingly became the incarnation of lust and sexual depravity. Well it was certainly an accomplishment.
Nualia's eyes widened as the memories of last night's events in the shower hit her. Being held on the brink of the abyss of endless pleasure. To be only able to watch but not jump in as invisible chains coiled around her, forever teasing her with a loose grip that seemingly gave her the impression that she could jump in and experience that mind-numbing pleasure anytime she wanted.
A healthy blush appeared on her cheeks which had Emrys guffawed.
Nualia could not believe that Emrys, this devil had managed to get her…her…to give into her desires and actually beg for release. It was embarrassing to say the least…but…but also thrilling.
To think…he managed to dominate me not with power…but with sex.
That thought seemed so ludicrous in her head but she could not deny reality. She gazed into those wonderful eyes of his that held amusement and pride…like a child who just got praised for doing something great. She snorted at the irony of it all.
"It seems I have taught you well."
"How could I not learn with a sexy teacher like you." Emrys purred in her ear.
"You better be careful with girls in the future. Sex like that and you would break their minds. Their bodies would become addicted to your cock." She said with amusement. He was fully capable of it given his skill-set but she knew he would not do it…at least not deliberately.
"Any girl that could succumb to such pleasures easily is not worthy for my magnificent cock!" Emrys said haughtily.
Nualia giggled at the ridiculous response causing the man to smile.
Her eyes then turned from joy into a dark look. "You know I will get back to you for this."
"I'll be waiting." Was his simple smug reply.
Their sexual games would never come to an end as they try to beat one another.
"So…how does your magic feel." Emrys finally got back on topic.
Nualia seemed a bit surprised at the question but nonetheless felt the magic inside her body and channeled it. Her eyes slowly widened in genuine shock.
"Incredible! My magic was never this dense before!"
"I finally managed to get good to use the refinement process very efficiently. If I was younger and still developing my magic, this would have been extremely beneficial to me. Now, it only has a minimal effect on us."
Emrys' disappointed tone caused Nualia to look at the man with an extremely incredulous look.
"This is minimal effect?" Her magic was now dense and of better quality and while yes, the drawback was less overall magic, that could be improved with time and training. The density and quality improvement were something that would strengthen every single spell she casted! It made her stronger overall and that type of improvement was precious for anyone.
"I can see why your clan was so popular among the devils."
Emrys merely smiled but this time there was a trace of sadness behind it. "Well regardless, you should use this time to solidify your foundations and make sure this refined magic is fully integrated into your body. Your ability to search for Yasaka should increase significantly."
Nualia nodded and eagerly got off of him and quickly left, eager to get to her training. It was not every day you could find yourself getting stronger and that too from having sex. She had never been someone who liked combat. Her power lay on sex and emotional manipulation to control the person she targeted to become devoted to her.
With her now denser magic and the fact that she could now use Shadow magic thanks to Emrys, she had a lot more combat power to speak of then say hundreds of years ago.
Emrys chuckled as he felt the pure excitement radiating off of the dark elf. He cleaned himself up in the washroom and got something to eat before he began restoring his own magic power.
It was only around a day later when Emrys had half-way recovered did Nualia send him a message through their empathetic link.
I think I found Yasaka.
Emrys, Nualia, Kuroka, the Valkyries, Kazan and the four youkai warriors stood around a round table which had a map of the underworld placed on it. A place was marked in an area that was dubbed 'Unexplored Lands'.
"This is where Yasaka-sama is?" Kazan asked hopefully.
"Most likely." Emrys didn't bother sugar-coating it. "Nualia sensed a powerful energy signature coming from this valley which was quite unusual as this place has a dense toxic mist covering the entire valley. The mist basically erodes all forms of energy slowly so the more time you spend in it, the weaker you get until eventually you die. Even if you have some sort of shield, it will decay over-time."
"Is there any way to effectively defend against it?" Rossweisse inquired.
"There is but it is difficult. According to what little anyone knows about the place, there are particularly venomous snakes called Blight Serpents that manage to absorb the mist and turn it into a lethal venom. If we can kill these serpents, I can make a potion with a few other ingredients that will allow us to resist the effect of the toxic mist for a certain period of time but it won't block the mist's effects entirely."
"Ok then it shouldn't be much of a hassle." One of the youkai warriors commented.
Emrys chuckled, "If only it were that easy. Blight Serpents are extremely powerful. Each one on the level of a high-class devil…and they stay in large groups. There is a reason this place is unknown to devils. Many don't even venture in there as the gains for doing so simply are not worth it."
Kazan looked at Emrys dead in the eye. "I assume you have a plan for this?"
"We will be luring some snakes away from the group when we find the nest and kill them. But we will need to kill a lot of them given how large our group is and we will need to do it fast. I will need to have all of your cooperation. Which means, if I give an order, you will have to obey."
Apart from Emrys' peerage, everyone looked at members of their own group with frowns. They did not want to hear nor obey orders from a stranger.
But…Emrys had earned their respect by bringing them this far. They had no illusion where they could have tracked Yasaka so quickly since they could not even sense the faint residue of energy from where Yasaka was kidnapped.
After a brief moment of tension, they looked at the devil and nodded their heads in agreement.
"Ok then with that settled, let's move onto the next step. Once we have the potion ready, we will waste no time and head towards the energy signature. Based on what Nualia managed to track, it is very deep within the mist. We have a general area of where she is located but we will need to cover some ground in order to get an exact location. But with the threat of her captors, we can't afford to split up too much so we should travel in small groups. I will go with Brynhildr and Rossweisse. Nualia and Kuroka will go with Kazan. The Youkai warriors will travel as a group of four. I have set up this way because each group will have at least one person who has a long-range scanning ability." Emrys explained, having gotten a good read on everyone's capabilities, particularly the four Youkai warriors.
Emrys saw everyone nodding so he moved on. "Okay, we need to get moving right away! We can discuss the details of the plan on the way." He then looked towards Nualia and nodded his head.
They left Emrys home and once outside, Nualia channeled her now improved magic power, causing a massive black magic circle to appear under her.
Everyone apart from Emrys jumped in fright when a massive black serpentine dragon with yellow outlines on its body, spanning a distance of 100 meters from head to tail appeared. The massive dragon's scales gleamed a shiny color and its eyes were a ferocious yellow with a black slit pupil, just like Nualia's.
"Ezais." Nualia said with a smile as she stepped forward to pat him on the head.
*GRRRR*
The dragon purred in delight but it certainly felt more like a growl as his master pet him. He sensed the change in magic power within her and felt delighted when it washed over him. He then looked at Emrys with a glare and a hostile look but didn't do anything apart from that.
"Get on." Nualia said to everyone.
They all hesitated.
This was one powerful familiar!
The powerful aura made it seem as if it was the apex predator. As if nothing could challenge it. Of course, this aura felt a bit awkward after seeing it act so obediently in front of the dark elf but the aura was still there.
They all hesitated a bit but after seeing Nualia and Emrys get on, Kuroka and the others followed.
"Hold on tight." Nualia warned seriously. "Ezais, let's go."
Emrys used his telekinesis to hold onto everyone because he was well aware of the capabilities of this fearsome creature. He had raised it alongside Nualia after all despite the dragon's dislike of him.
The next moment some of the passengers screamed in a high-pitched tone as Ezais was surrounded by golden lightning crackling around its body before it shot into the air towards their destination with extreme speed. The dragon was traveling at a hundred times the speed of sound, allowing it cover ground so quickly it was insane.
Everyone could not do anything other than use all their power from not falling off. Strangely enough there was not that much resistance despite the immense speed they were traveling at because of the invisible air bubble surrounding the dragon.
"Can I ask you something?" Kuroka asked in Emrys' ear as she was sitting right behind him while holding onto him tightly.
Her breasts squeezed into him while he hugged Nualia so being sandwiched between two beautiful girls was an absolute delight.
"What is it?"
"I want to live with the Youkai after this…can you let me leave your peerage?"
Emrys was surprised by this request.
Did I do something wrong or…does she simply want to live freely?
Regardless of how he felt of not wanting her to go, he had no say of how she wanted to live.
Emrys sighed at the question. "If that is what you wish, I will let you go after this is over. When possible, I'll make sure no devils hunt you."
He felt her arms tighten around his body when he gave his answer but paid no attention to it. It was not his place to question her reasons nor bind her to him. He would like her to stay with him but if she didn't want to, then he would not force her.
As he also felt it was inappropriate to gauge her emotions with his sensing ability, he kept to his own thoughts on the mission ahead and pushed Kuroka's request to the back of his mind.
As such, he did not notice the torrent of emotions running through Kuroka's mind and heart.
It was around a few hours later that the group landed in front of an enormous valley where they could see a black mist covering its entirety with only the mountain tips visible at the top.
Not only that but they all felt some heat waves radiating from the mist.
"Ok, let's move. All of you will set up a defensive formation on the barren land ahead. I will go into the mist and lure some of the Blight Serpents out. When I give the signal, attack them and make sure not to hold back. Also, be careful, these snakes are capable of tunneling underground so if you feel the slightest tremor under you…If I'm not back in an hour…assume I'm dead."
The others got the message and began setting up at the barren wasteland not far from the black mist.
Kuroka couldn't help but look at the retreating back of Emrys with concern. She then looked at Nualia who did not look the least bit worried which confused her. She didn't think Emrys would have said that last part if he didn't think there was a small chance, he may die but if so, why did it seem like Nualia did not care?
Did she wish him dead?
Kuroka did not think so given their conversation from a while back.
Did she have absolute confidence in his abilities?
Kuroka felt this was the more likely scenario.
Emrys frowned as he could barely see anything around him thanks to the black mist. He could feel his magic power slowly being eroded, even with the translucent shield around him that was slowing the process down.
Even my sensory abilities are limited here.
The corroding nature of the mist meant that his absolute sensory field covered only an area of a 100-meter radius around him.
Regardless of his limitations, he could feel a nervous crawling sensation traveling throughout his skin as he sensed a figure not too far from him.
"So, who are you?" Emrys asked out loud.
Not a moment later, a cloaked figure appeared before him, two simple looking black swords resting in his hands.
"Leave now and you will be spared." Was the figure's simple warning.
"I prefer not to. You see, I have heard tales of Yasaka's beauty and I am very curious if the carpet matches the drapes."
Emrys smirked when he sensed the shock from the figure. No matter who he fights, they always have a tough time handling sexual innuendos since they were so foreign in serious conversations.
The figure did not bother conversing any further and rushed towards Emrys, his sword swinging.
Emrys reacted fluidly and evaded the strike and easily sensed the follow-up slash from the other sword which would have easily hit most others who did not have his sensory abilities.
Emrys efficiently dodged each and every strike of his opponent. While he seemed calm, he was actually quite shocked.
This man has barely any magic power or demonic power to speak of. What little he has is focused on simple body enhancement…
Emrys did not want to drag this on any further as he knew he would only get weaker and he needed to converse his strength in order to save Yasaka.
Summoning a blade made of psionic energy which encased his left and right arm, Emrys' blade clashed with the figures, generating sparks. The two jumped away from each other, creating a distance of twenty meters from each other.
"You're a swordsman…interesting."
Emrys looked on in shock as the figures speed increased by five-fold as he rushed towards him.
He was holding back?
Even with Emrys' sensory abilities he began to struggle to keep up with the swordsman's slashes and strikes as he moved with such fluidity and precision as if his swords and arms were one limb and not separate. His skills were unlike anything Emrys had ever witnessed. The man managed to predict his dodges with such precision that Emrys found the strikes reaching him in conjunction with his dodges.
Slash marks appeared on his body and blood began dripping down.
Emrys quickly teleported some distance away.
I absolutely cannot fight this man in close-range.
Just a brief clash with him was enough to tell him all he needed to know regarding his abilities. And with the black mist around him, he was forced to conserve his strength which heavily limited his close-combat capabilities.
As soon as he teleported, Emrys summoned forth his magic.
Endless Rain
A flood of small purple orbs appeared all over the field surrounding him and the cloaked swordsman.
Not a moment later, the balls turned into bullets and rushed towards the swordsman.
Emrys thought for sure this would be enough to defeat the man but what happened next shocked him to the core.
The figure moved around with his swords moving fluidly around him and began acting as a barrier that blocked all of the incoming bullets. Hundreds of sparks surrounded the swordsman, creating a mesmerizing image of a galaxy of stars. Emrys forever engraved the movement of swords in his mind.
When he saw his attack not working, his eyes glowed as he grabbed onto the swords with Telekinesis but a rippled of a strange power from the swords shattered his telekinesis.
Interesting…
Emrys thought as his began glowing with greater intensity.
The swordsman looked around in surprise once the attack ended. Emrys was nowhere to be seen.
"He escaped…"
Seeing his target gone, the swordsman ran away.
Emrys watched the swords leave with cautious eyes. He had been in fact standing right in front of the swordsman but he had casted a powerful illusion on the surrounding area as well as within the swordsman' mind although it was very subtle. Emrys new the corrosion of the mist would make the illusion ineffective after a short while which was, he targeted the swordsman's mind allowing the fight to end quickly.
But given his suspicions regarding the swordsman, he knew this would be the perfect opportunity to find Yasaka. The planted a bit of magic within the swordsman's mind while the illusion took effect and masked it in such a way that it would not be detectable. At least by anyone who was not as skilled as he was with magic.
With having to find her out of the picture, Emrys decided to get back to his original task of finding the nest of Blight Serpents. He had consumed very little of his magic power in the actually fight but the mist had sapped 25% of his strength already.
A short time later
A litter of Blight Serpent corpses covered the barren field near the mist while Nualia, Kuroka, Brynhildr, Rossweisse, Kazan and the four youkai warriors lay on the ground in exhaustion.
Emrys had led a group of six Blight Serpents towards them after forty-five minutes of going into the black mist. At first the group had thought the fight would be quite easy seeing as the Blight Serpents only had venom and physical attacks to rely on.
But boy were they wrong.
Four of the six snakes were quite large of around 20 meters in length and 2 meters in thickness enabling everyone to dodge easily and land their attacks to kill them within seconds.
The other two however were the real issue. They were much…much smaller of around 3 meters in length and 3 centimeters in thickness, however the speed and power behind their attacks was hundreds of times greater.
The small Blight Serpents were able to dodge everyone's attacks easily and strike viscously with incredible speed. This forced everyone to dodge continuously and given Emrys' telekinesis did not work on living beings…he was forced to use his chains.
It was this that allowed the defeat of the small snakes but it still took an hour. Even with his sensing abilities, the snakes were truly powerful.
No wonder this place is unexplored…
As the group recuperated, Emrys took the corpses of the snake to one corner with his chains and summoned forth a bunch of tools through his magic seals.
He began to rip open the bodies of the larger snakes and analyzed them with his mind.
Incredible. These snakes have magic power concentrated on their venom sacks which are able to absorb the black mist and infuse it within their own venom, exemplifying its potency and lethality. Not only that but they secret the venom throughout their bodies in order to temper it.
The venom must have some properties that are able to strengthen the body of the snakes. But…how come the small ones seemed way more powerful then these ones?
When Emrys analyzed the physiology of the smaller snakes, he got his answer.
So…the smaller the snakes are, the more powerful they are. A new take on the saying that size does not mean anything…at least when it's not related to the bedroom arts. Anyways, the toxin in these ones are…hundreds of times more concentrated. I wouldn't be able to make the potion with this but…I need to study it more.
Emrys joyfully harvested the various organs and valuable body parts of the snakes and preserved them so he could study them later. There were many secrets within the bodies of these Blight Serpents but he felt that his harvest was nowhere near enough. He would need more.
Given the current situation, he couldn't collect them now but he would later.
Once the potion was ready and everyone recovered their strength, Emrys walked up to them.
However, the first word to utter out of his mouth confused them greatly.
"FUCK!"
With the cloaked swordsman
"What have you found?" Asked the silver-haired man as he gazed at the kneeling cloaked figure.
"A group of six youkai, two Valkyries, one dark elf and a devil seemed to be heading here. The devil seemed the strongest among them."
"How strong?"
"I can't say. He was limited by the dark mist when I fought him. But nowhere near your strength master. At most, I would guess him to be at my level."
"Interesting." The silver-haired man thought before his eyes widened in shock as he looked at the man. He placed his hand on the swordsman's forehead and injected his magic violently into him causing him to scream in pain.
The hand was removed a moment later but the swordsman was still panting on the ground, trying to regain his bearings.
"It seems this devil is quite cunning. He already knows about this location. Regardless, it will take him another four days to reach here. That should be sufficient time."
With Emrys
Emrys felt the trace of magic he left within the swordsman's mind shatter which caused him to curse. Because of the distance, he only managed to get a general idea of where Yasaka was but not an exact location.
"What's wrong?" Nualia couldn't help but ask.
Emrys sighed. "Earlier when I entered the mist, I encountered a cloaked swordsman who I think is one of the people responsible for Yasaka's kidnapping but not the main culprit. I fought him and implanted a small tracker within his mind and it has given me the general area of where Yasaka should most likely be held but I was not able to get an exact location. Someone managed to detect it and destroy the tracker."
Kazan and the Youkai warriors were rather happy that Yasaka's general location was now known. The Valkyries and Kuroka were confused as to why Emrys seemed upset but Nualia was shocked for she was aware of what this implied.
There was a skilled magician involved in his and anyone who could match Emrys' skills with magic could only be powerful.
They might have more enemies to face soon.
"Forget the plan from earlier. We will all travel together and you must not stray from the path I walk, understand?"
The group nodded.
Emrys handed them the potion he made. "Drink two drops of this every four hours. The mist's corrosion effect will be kept to a minimum."
After that he began leading the group into the mist.
Four days later
Emrys looked at the mountain in front of them with extremely wary and somewhat tired eyes. This was the place where Yasaka was most likely kept. Based on what Nualia told him, there was some faint power similar to a youkai here that enabled her shadow summons to sense it but now, he could not sense anything.
Looking at this group, he frowned. Every one of them had half of their strength at most and they were all exhausted.
While the mist's power was greatly lessened thanks to the potion he made, it was not completely eliminated. It still sapped strength and stamina while their vitality remained unaffected.
If we have to fight…there is a slim chance we can win…let alone save Yasaka.
As he thought this, Kunou's hopeful smile appeared in his head and he remembered his promise.
"I don't have to tell you our odds. If anyone wants to turn back, then go ahead." Emrys' voice was loud and clear in this silence-filled valley.
As he stepped forward, the group immediately followed without hesitation. They each had their reasons for coming here and would not back away just because the odds were stacked against them.
Emrys' body remained tense as they explored the mountain.
His nerves are on edge and have been on edge during the four days simply because it was too quiet. He managed to avoid all the Blight Serpents by following the path of the swordsman and his sensory abilities. However, no one came to stop them throughout the journey.
He at least expected more people like the swordsman to fight them and either kill or delay them but no one came. He had stayed on guard constantly and couldn't even find the time to have fuck Nualia which only made him more frustrated.
Regardless, his tense nature made him extremely alert, prone to scan every nook and cranny of his surroundings.
Eventually, their exploration led to a simple but rather large cave. It was here he began to feel a faint energy signature, only it had no properties that would relate it to the youkai. Rather it felt dark and heavy.
As the group stepped into the cave Emrys was surprised by the complete lack of the black mist a few steps within the cave.
This energy signature…what is it? It feels so similar to the black mist but…also so different.
As they walked deeper and deeper, the energy signature became stronger and stronger. He could feel everyone becoming uncomfortable but he was able to shield his mind and body thanks to his manipulation of the magic within his body. The others did something similar to resist the oppressive feeling.
The cave network they were in was vast with numerous entrances and pathways too choose from. Some were extremely narrow, small enough to only fit a child while some were large enough to hold mansions.
Navigating through the cave network though was rather easy as they simply had to follow the oppressive energy.
Eventually, they reached their destination in the form of a large open area within the cave with hundreds of large crystals, giving off a sinister black light with tints of red.
"What is this power?" Kazan couldn't help but mutter.
It felt so dark, powerful and ancient. It seemed to be endless but also extremely repulsive as if it was tainting their very soul, dumping it in filth.
"It feels so disgusting…" Rossweisse commented.
Emrys was not focused on the crystals despite the immense power radiating off of them. No, his attention was on the figure he sensed not too far from their location.
His movement prompted the group to follow him until a black-cloaked figure with swords in hand and a silver-robed man with silver hair tied in braids came into their vision.
"I applaud you for managing to find this place. Tell me devil, which house do you belong to?" Was the silver-haired man's way of starting the conversation. And from his polite tone, it was as if he was sipping tea in his own backyard, talking with old friends rather than in this ominous cave in front of enemies.
"Where is Yasaka?!" Kazan bellowed at the man.
"Tch. Tch. Tch. What a rude Youkai, interrupting my conversation." The silver-haired man said before scanning them. When his eyes rested on Rossweisse, he became fixated on her. "You look so much like her."
Rossweisse became confused by the man's gaze and the words he uttered.
Emrys meanwhile was very shocked. The magic power from this man felt familiar…way too familiar to a certain poker-faced and cold woman with silver-hair always dressed in a maid outfit.
"A beautiful woman like you should not be with these low-lives. Why not come with me?" The silver-haired man said with seemingly loving eyes while staring at Rossweisse, completely ignoring everyone else.
"Uh…Uh…" Rossweisse stuttered, not knowing how to response to the man's advances! This was way too sudden and far out of her comfort zone.
"Euclid Lucifuge?" Emrys questioned.
This caused the silver-haired man's attention to falter as he took his eyes off of Rossweisse and turned to Emrys. "How do you know my name?"
"You look really similar to someone I know…" Was the vague reply but it caused Euclid to widen his eyes in surprise.
"You know Grayfia?"
"Where is Yasaka!" Kazan bellowed with impatience!
Euclid looked at him with anger and annoyance. "If you can get past my swordsman then she is over there by the big crystal." He then pointed towards Emrys and Rossweisse. "You two stay here." A powerful magic washed over the two, seemingly keeping them in place.
Emrys' simple nod to Euclid's question caused him to smile with pure joy.
Nualia. Kuroka. Help the youkai deal with that swordsman, but keep in mind, he is very powerful. Do not underestimate him under any circumstances.
He then warned the youkai and Brynhildr before turning back to Euclid with Rossweisse standing awkwardly, but also terrified by the ocean of magic power she felt radiating from the silver-haired man.
With Kazan and company
Kazan gazed at the cloaked swordsman with wariness as he signalled the youkai warriors to try and surround him.
However, much to his shock, the cloaked swordsman blurred like a ghost fading away before the youkai warriors dropped to the ground with fatal bleeding wounds on their bodies.
"Impossible!"
These were the best warriors of the youkai in Kyoto! Even someone of Yasaka's calibre would have difficulty dealing with them so quickly. He expected at least a battle, not them dropping within a second.
Abyssal Bind
Brynhildr smashed her sword to the ground causing a huge dark blue magic circle to appear. A faint mist was released and enveloped the cloaked swordsman.
The chief of Valkyries then looked at Nualia and Kuroka who instantly used this opportunity to pounce on the opponent.
Shadow Strike
A black snake made of shadowy mist launched itself towards the cloaked swordsman who tried to dodge but the effects of Abyssal Bind slowed down his movements considerably.
So, he quickly retaliated by blocking with his sword.
However, that left an opening for Kuroka to take advantage of as she used her immense speed to get behind the swordsman. Her danger senses tingled not a second later as she saw the swordsman's image fade out of existence.
She immediately turned towards Brynhildr and launched a barrage of Senjutsu aura bullets.
Brynhildr was surprised by the sudden attack towards her from Kuroka but when she analyzed the trajectory of the bullets, she immediately realized what was going on. A furious aura enveloped her and expanded outwards, protecting her and attacking her assailant that was behind her.
Kazan also used his Yojutsu to launch a stream of flames towards the cloaked swordsman.
From the triple attack, it seemed as if the swordsman was done for.
However, when he skillfully swung his swords around his body at a speed too fast to see, a galaxy of stars appeared around him as his swords clashed with the attacks, easily deflecting all of them. It was as if a barrier was enveloping the swordsman, effectively blocking all attacks from harming him.
While he was doing so, Nualia was ever so subtly using her shadow magic. Under the numerous attacks, lots of lights had been generated which also meant a lot of shadows. A thin black thread shot through the numerous shadows and made itself comfortable in the swordsman shadow.
Nualia smirked as the shadow began crawling up the man causing him to stiffen.
If there was one thing in this world that any sentient being believed would not backstab them, it would be there shadow.
With Emrys
"So how is Grayfia?"
"Well." Euclid frowned at the short response. "Why are you here and why did you kidnap Yasaka?"
"Please, you must answer my questions before I answer yours. Now tell me how is Grayfia? Is she still married?"
"Yes. She is living a happy life married to Sirzechs Lucifer." Emrys frowned when he sensed anger, lust, obsession and insanity when he uttered his sentence.
He is a sis-con…just like Sirzechs…
He made sure to leave out Grayfia's son when he sensed the flood of negative emotions from him.
"Is that so…well, I'm glad to see she has been doing well." The sentence sounded extremely fake to Emrys. "As for your question…well let's just say I was conducting an experiment. But it is complete now so Yasaka is of no use to me so you may take her corpse back with you."
"Can I ask one more thing?" Emrys asked politely, seemingly not affected by the statement of Yasaka's death. He was sensing Yasaka some distance away but her aura was very weak. She was certainly alive but on deaths door.
"What is it?" Euclid asked, confused at the polite tone. He expected this devil to get angry.
"Are you a sis-con?"
"What?" Euclid said in shock.
Emrys did not elaborate further as he used the brief window of opportunity and summoned forth his chains to rush towards Euclid. He hoped this surprise attack would succeed but alas, it would never be that easy.
The chains struck an invisible shield and were reflected away.
"I see…so you're from the Halphas household…how interesting." Euclid muttered. "I did not expect to see one of you still alive."
Emrys sighed at the lost opportunity. This man would be much more difficult to deal with, without the element of surprise. He could sense the silver-haired man's magic power was far…far beyond his own.
"Let's see if you live up to your house's reputation."
Euclid masterfully weaved his magic causing balls of light to appear around Emrys but they avoided Rossweisse.
Emrys immediately began teleporting to avoid the balls who he knew were dangerous. Not a second later, small but powerful explosions ripped apart the silence of the cave.
Rossweisse took this opportunity to summon forth a huge array of varying magic circles behind her. Hundreds of magical beams containing properties of differing elements launched towards Euclid.
Euclid smiled at the silver-haired girl. "You have immense potential." With a simple wave of his hand, a white light covered the oncoming attack and much to Rossweisse' shock, the beams were evaporated within seconds, silently fading out of existence. "Train hard and you will become very powerful one day."
The warmth and love within those words made the silver-haired beauties' skin crawl.
"Hey sis-con! Quit perving on anyone who looks like Grayfia!" Emrys taunted.
It was super effective.
Euclid's expression turned very ugly. As if mocking Rossweisse, he summoned a much more powerful version of her previous attack and launched the elemental beams towards Emrys.
He teleported to avoid the attack but sadly the attack followed him leaving him the only option to block the attack. A purple shield formed around him just before the elemental beams crashed into him.
Fuck!
Emrys swore as he felt the sheer power behind the attack.
It took more than half of his magic pool in order to block the attack as it was fueled by Euclid's anger!
I am no match for this guy in a head on fight of magic power! He is way beyond me. If magic won't work then…
Emrys' eyes began to glow as he began using the art, he was best at in battle.
Euclid eyes widened in interest despite the anger boiling in him for insulting his love for his sister!
A faint illusion began covering the area around him as he soon found himself within some decaying ruins.
"This is the best you have to offer? The Halphas clan would be ashamed of you."
Emrys ignored the remark as he launched his chains towards Euclid.
"Pathetic."
Euclid swung his arm, launching a familiar arc of white light which shattered the illusion and the oncoming chains. However, much to his surprise, while the chains dispersed, a faint dark purple glow erupted from them, containing a power he was very familiar with.
"You managed to copy that sealing spell?!" He said in shock.
Emrys did not bother answering as he launched himself towards Euclid while blades made of psychic energy enveloped his arms.
Euclid frantically summoned forth his power and dispersed the dark purple energy coming towards him. Due to his fear of that energy, he was hit by the psychic blade but only by the tip which cut his cheek.
Emrys did not stop as he relentlessly struck forward, slashing towards his neck as if intending to behead him.
Euclid quickly conjured up a shield to defend against the attack but the blade seemingly passed through the shield. He had no time to react at the blade passed through him as well and that too harmlessly.
Not a moment later, he felt a sharp pain in his mind.
Euclid looked around in shock not knowing where he was.
It seemed like such a joyous occasion with a bunch of flowers and rows of well decorated seats. A beautiful platform was located some distance away.
All of the seats were filled with many figures of the various 72 pillars and they were chatting with excitement.
When Euclid heard gasps, he looked around and saw everyone staring towards a certain direction.
When he turned to look, his eyes widened in surprise by what he saw.
His sister garbed in a white gown, holding a bouquet of red flowers. Her lips were supple and a glowing red in color while her cheeks were flushed and a serene smile which seemed to enrapture every living thing around her adorned her face. Her eyes filled with excitement and love.
"S-So beautiful…" Euclid muttered as his heart seemed to skip a few beats. His love for her seemed to grow stronger and stronger as she got closer and closer.
"Grayfia." He muttered softly as he looked into her eyes. He was seated right next to the aisle so it was impossible for her to not notice.
But much to his shock, Grayfia did not see him at all. She walked past him with indifference as if his existence did no matter to him.
"Grayfia…"
She did not look back at him.
"Grayfia…"
She still ignored him as her sights were only fixated on the crimson haired man standing in front of her.
Euclid's eyes widened in horror and his heart began to stop beating when Grayfia stood in front of that man.
Pure love filled her eyes as she gazed into his eyes.
Then she began to wrap her arms around his head and brought her lips to the crimson-haired devils.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOO…"
A flash of white enveloped his vision as he then found himself in a bedroom.
Grayfia and her husband naked and making love to each other on the lavish bed was the first sight that greeted him.
Euclid could not find the energy to scream as his body remained stiff from horror. His eyes filled with betrayal, hate and anger.
He then saw Grayfia getting pregnant and she was smiling happily.
She was living with her husband with a life full of joy.
That should have been me!
And then…the whole scene repeated itself.
Back in the real world with Emrys
"AHHHHHH!" Euclid screamed in despair.
What…the…actual…fuck.
His face was blank.
I apologize Sirzechs. It seems someone has surpassed your rank as a sis-con. You pale in comparison to this man.
Somewhere in the underworld
A crimson-haired man garbed in lavish clothing and armor sat behind a desk working on paperwork to quickly get rid of the stacks of paper on his desk.
However, a sudden pressure built up inside of him and exploded without warning.
"ACHOOOOOOO!"
Sirzechs rubbed his nose in annoyance and itchiness.
His heart then trembled with horror as his eyes began misting.
Tears began pouring out as the man collapsed on the desk, wailing in agony as his hours of work went to waste with papers scattered around his office.
This pathetic state is what his wife Grayfia stumbled into when she came into the room.
With Emrys
It seems his sister is truly the weakness in his heart. I half expected him to easily break out of his attack but it seems mental attacks are not his speciality.
His eyes widened not a moment later as he left Euclid to collapse to the ground and teleported away.
Kuroka's eyes widened in shock when she saw a faint light from the corner of her vision. A blade was making its way to her neck in order to part her head from her body.
Is this it…am I really going to die?
Kuroka thought as time slowed down from her perspective. Her life flashed before her eyes and multiple regrets flashed into her mind as she never got to truly live and she did not get to meet Shirone again.
However, death did not come to greet her but rather, something warm splashed on her face.
When she realized she was still alive and well, her eyes wandered around and landed upon a figure who just shielded her with his arm.
The blade that would have taken her life was buried in his arm with a deep cut and the blood had splashed on her face.
The swordsman instantly took his opportunity to reach his master who had collapsed to the ground. Grabbing onto him, the two were enveloped by a magic circle and disappeared.
"Are you alright?" Emrys asked once he saw the two left and sensed that they were truly gone.
Kuroka nodded in shock, still reeling in from the near-death experience. However, the sight of the deep cut and blood oozing out from it caused her to gasp. "Your hurt!"
"Don't worry, it will be fine." He brought out some pills from his pocket dimension and consumed them which caused his wounds to heal at a rapid pace at the expense of his magic.
"Are you alright Nualia?" Emrys asked after making his way over.
The dark elf nodded as she had not been touched in his battle but the same could not be said for Kazan or the youkai warriors.
Kazan was still alive but he was looking at the now dead bodies of the warriors with hallow eyes.
"T-Their dead…"
"Yasaka is near us but she is near death so we must hurry. Take these pills to recover." Emrys knew the only way to bring Kazan out of his grief quickly was to divert his attention elsewhere.
Tossing Brynhildr and Rossweisse the pills as well, they nodded in gratitude before following him.
When they arrived in front of a large crystal with black chains surrounding it and they seemed to originate from the now wrinkled woman attached to the crystal.
"YASAKA-SAMA!" Kazan rushed forward only to be stopped by Emrys' hand.
"We need to release her from those chains first. Don't do anything rash lest you want to endanger her further."
Kazan gritted his teeth at the warning but listened.
Emrys stepped forward and began analyzing the chains that were bound to Yasaka and frowned.
These chains are nothing special and easy to break. But then why hasn't Yasaka broken out of it herself until now?
As he analyzed further, he got his answer.
He instantly cut apart these chains with his psionic energy and gently took the frail body of the former beauty into his arms and gently laid her on the ground while covering her up with some cloth.
"Yasaka-sama…I'm so sorry. I failed to save you." Kazan grieved as he looked at the wrinkled face of the woman who had given him everything. "I do not deserve to live for this failure. I shall pay with my life." Kazan summoned forth his power to take his own life.
Emrys immediately stopped him using what was left his own magic. "She is not dead you know."
"S-She's not?" Kazan muttered in disbelief. She looked quite dead to him.
"No. There is a very small amount of life still within her and it is possible to save her but…"
"BUT WHAT?!" Kazan shouted.
"But it will come at a heavy price."
"I will pay any price needed to save her."
Emrys shook his head. "The price is not something you can pay. It's something I would have to pay."
"I don't understand."
"Yasaka's life force has been nearly depleted but that is easy to solve. The issue here is her soul. It has nearly been destroyed by those black chains. The only way to heal her is to take someone else' soul essence and infuse it with her own…BUT I can only do that with a soul I'm familiar with. Given hers is nearly destroyed, I don't need any familiarity with hers since there is barely any left. But I can only use my own soul essence to heal her since it's the one I'm obviously most familiar with."
"However, doing this will mean I will need many years to recover."
"I see." Kazan muttered before silence enveloped them for a few moments. "Is there some way I can convince you to help save her for a price?"
"You don't have to. I plan to save her regardless but there are still some limiting factors. For one, recovering the essence of one's soul between the same species is one thing but between different species is another. I would have to reincarnate her as a devil and member of my peerage first. By being a devil, the process will go much smoother."
Kazan narrowed his eyes. "I see."
Emrys was easily able to ascertain the suspicion in his heart even without his senses.
"Let's discuss this with Yasaka and let her decide."
His eyes glowed as he brought his own consciousness and Kazan's into Yasaka's. It was probably the only thing left of her that was intact.
Kazan had no time to react as he felt a pull on his consciousness before blacking out and his body falling to the ground unconscious.
When he came to, Kazan found himself sitting in seiza around a small table with Emrys on his side, and Yasaka in all her vibrant beauty sitting across him.
"Yasaka-sama!"
"Kazan-san. How have you been?" The golden-haired beauty said with a smile.
"I-I'm sorry Yasaka-sama! I'm a failure! I couldn't save you!" Kazan cried with his head on the table. He failed to save the one person he cared about more than anything. "I don't deserve to live."
"Please raise your head Kazan-san. You did not fail and I'm glad you came to save me."
Kazan looked at the smiling beauty through his teary eyes and couldn't help but think of the time when she had taken him in when he was just a child. It was the same warm smile he remembered.
He then turned to Emrys.
The psychic devil had been looking at Yasaka with appreciative eyes as her figure was truly something to drool over. Her huge breasts, creamy soft skin with no flaws, golden eyes and sun-kissed blonde hair were only a few of her mystic features. Her regal aura and composed look as well as the elegance with which she held herself and carried out every action gave her the true aura of a queen. It was a charm that easily drew people to her.
"Can you truly save her?"
"Of course. One less beautiful woman in this cruel world is something I will not stand for!" Emrys declared passionately.
"Eh…" Kazan blinked.
"Oh my. You're really bold." Yasaka said, seemingly embarrassed and bashful but it was obvious to see it was an act. She was enjoying her interaction with this devil since no one usually dared act this way with her.
"I am just on a holy mission that requires me to make many sacrifices so boldness is something I cannot lack!"
"A devil on a holy mission?" Yasaka said in confusion. The sheer passion in his tone seemed like he truly believed in this seemingly holy mission.
"Of course. I must make all beautiful women experience the true pleasures of my mighty dragon to make up for what the men of all worlds lack!"
Kazan coughed up blood from hearing the innuendo and desire to get in Yasaka's panties. "H-How dare you talk like that to her!"
"You see! This is why women everywhere are being denied the pleasures they have every right to experience. Stuck up men like you don't pay enough attention to your women!"
Yasaka couldn't help but giggle at Kazan's furious face and Emrys' ridiculous look as his face sparkled as if god's light was shining down on this devil for his holy deeds.
Emrys smiled upon seeing Yasaka smile. She deserved it after being through all this crap due to a man with an enormous sister-complex with some fucked up goal.
"So Yasaka-san, what do you think?"
"It's not like I have a choice, do I? Even just to see Kunou again, I'm willing to do whatever it takes."
"Are you sure Yasaka-sama? You will be reborn as his servant." Kazan warned. As much as he respected this devil, seeing the women he revered being someone's slave was the last thing he wanted to see.
"Can I ask you a question Emrys-san?" Emrys nodded. "Why are willing to go so far to save me?"
"Well one, I can't have the world deprived of your immense beauty. Two, the fragile state of the three factions makes any situation in surrounding areas or in races potentially volatile. And three…I have to keep a promise to someone."
"A promise?" That last part confused Yasaka. Who could have made him promise such a thing and go so far for her whom he just met now?
"Yes. Now here are the details of your recovery. I will have to take you into my peerage and given your current condition, your transformation and role will be permanent. It's something I can't change due to your current fragile state. Afterwards, I will be ripping apart my soul and using it to help rebuild yours. This of course will severely weaken me and I don't feel safe in Kyoto given what already happened so we will need Kazan to help pacify the youkai and inform them that you will be spending a long time to recover and Kazan will be ruling in your place. During this time, you will have to stay with me to recover. If you want Kunou can stay with us from time to time but her appearance in Kyoto will be needed to pacify many of the youkai there."
Yasaka remained silent as she processed the information. Her life resided in the palm of this devil and while it seemed like she had no choice to trust him, she did not feel as if he was hiding anything. There was a different type of aura to him that made it seem as if he had no nefarious thoughts regarding her.
She eventually nodded. "Very well."
Kazan nodded as well, accepting her decision.
Emrys gave a warm smile before he along with Kazan left her consciousness.
Emrys looked at the frail and wrinkled looking corpse of Yasaka that was barely hanging on and sighed.
Despite everything, I'm not doing this just for them. By ripping apart my soul…I can rebuild it stronger than ever before. With this I will get stronger in the future. I can't afford to sit back with Euclid and his swordsman as my enemy.
The only reason we even won is because I managed to catch Euclid off-guard with the mental attack but in terms of raw power…I was no match for him. Even that swordsman was toying with the Valkyries, Nualia and Kuroka. He could have ended them much quicker if he did not hold anything back from the beginning. I'm far too weak as I am now and I'm not growing strong quickly enough. This is the perfect opportunity.
Emrys shook his head to clear his head before his began glowing. The first step was to restore the vitality of her body. This was easy to do with the recent dead youkai warriors as their excess life-force was still lingering around this area with the presence of the highly dense magic crystals.
Yasaka's skin went from its previously wrinkled state back to the creamy glowing skin she once had at a speed visible to the naked eye. Her face once again regained its beauty. She looked more like a beautiful woman asleep then someone near death.
"Incredible!" Brynhildr and Rossweisse muttered. Such blatant and exquisite manipulation of life force was something they were unfamiliar with.
Emrys panted a bit as he was already tired from the battle and manipulating life-force exhausted him further.
"Kuroka…come here."
The neko was a bit surprised at being called out so suddenly but nonetheless walked over.
"You wanted to leave my peerage, right? This is the only chance. Afterwards, I will be too weak to release you."
H-He…He wasn't lying! He would really let me go…
I-I was right. He is truly someone worth following. A devil unlike others…
Kuroka shook her head. "I wish to stay with you."
"Are you sure? Remember, this will be your only chance…" Emrys warned.
Kuroka gave him a warm smile that took his breath away. She looked so serene and beautiful in this moment as if she had figured out the meaning of her life and was filled with boundless happiness.
"I'm sure." Those words carried complete confidence and unyielding resolve.
Emrys was easily able to tell she meant it and thus gave her a small nod and smile of gratitude before turning to Yasaka.
He took out a bishop piece and placed it on Yasaka's eye-catching chest.
"Under the name of Emrys Halphas…be reborn as my Bishop and live a pleasure-filled life!"
The piece was easily absorbed by her, the immense power it contained helping to stave off death for Yasaka and healing her soul just a little bit. There was no mutation despite Yasaka's former power as her soul was far too damage and thus at the moment, a being with little to no potential.
As the power radiating from her body died down, her chest was seen to faintly move up and down as her vitality was restored and her body brought back to decent condition. Now it was the matter of her soul.
He took this opportunity to draw a magic circle on the ground which would be permanently embedded in this place. He would be able to teleport her at will and this would be an immense boon with how many magic crystals there were.
"Let's get out of here."
Sometime later
"I'm afraid I'm going to have to do rain check on our date." Emrys gave a charming smile to the two Valkyries.
They both blushed furiously.
"W-We have to go!" Brynhildr said before she left alongside the tomato faced Rossweisse.
Emrys couldn't help but chuckle at the cute behavior before heading back inside his home.
"Are you sure about this?" Nualia asked with Kuroka beside her.
They were currently in a secret section of his home and currently standing in front of a door, behind which Yasaka patiently waited.
"I wouldn't be doing it if I wasn't sure." Was the dry reply.
"It just seems to be very risky." Nualia commented, not offended by the tone.
"I'm at a block and I need to get stronger. This will open up that doorway. And, a beautiful woman like her doesn't deserve to die."
Nualia couldn't help but snort. "If it had been a man, you would have told him to suck it up."
Emrys gave a cheesy smile before walked through the door.
Kuroka looked Nualia. "Will he be okay?"
Nualia nodded, "There aren't many who are as skilled as him at magic and his magic enables him control over many other forces. He will be fine but knowing him, I'm sure he's going to do something stupid and go way beyond than necessary."
"How are you feeling?" Emrys asked as he stood in front of the bed where Yasaka was lying down peacefully with a thin nightgown covering her,
She looked at the calm and attractive face of the devil that was basically giving her a new life. And that too through a huge sacrifice he himself would have to pay.
It still felt like all of this was a dream.
Am I actually dead?
This was the often the thought that kept running through her brain.
"What are you thinking so deeply about?" Emrys asked in amusement as she gazed at him with a contemplating look for a few moments.
Yasaka blushed as she was caught staring at him. "This all feels more like a dream." She answered truthfully.
"From your perspective, I can see why that would be the case."
Yasaka looked at him in confusion when he paused there, not saying any further. "Aren't you suppose to say it's not a dream?"
"I prefer to let my actions speak. Anyone can spew hot air and I feel like my words would mean little given what you just went through."
Yasaka couldn't help but smile and nod.
Emrys than took a seat on the bed and looked at Yasaka. "This process will require both of us to be naked so that I can directly transfer my soul essence into you without any interference."
"Oh my, we have only known each other for a day and you already want to see me naked? You sure are fast." She couldn't help but tease.
"I'm only fast when I need to be. But I usually like to take my time." He said with a goofy smirk.
"Then please take care of me. I am in your hands. I hope you will be gentle."
"Oh, I'll be very gentle. I'm just afraid you may lose control of yourself. Women often can't handle me."
Well…I only had sex with Nualia so far so I'm not really an expert per say…But…
"I guess we'll just have to see, won't we?" Yasaka gave an amused smile. The banter of innuendo did a lot to soothe her nerves and give her a sense of calmness.
Yasaka then slowly took off her gown and gave a sultry look to Emrys. She would be lying if she said she wasn't attracted to this man.
Maybe it was the fact that he saved her or carried himself with a sense of confidence that seemed to attract women around him. Maybe it was otherworldly good looks or unique sense of humor. Maybe a combination of all.
Regardless, she could feel herself getting hot as his eyes seemingly ravaged her. The dark lust behind those beautiful eyes was chained by a sense of self-control. It was obvious he would not go a step beyond his boundaries.
Emrys also took off his clothes, letting Yasaka feast on his perfectly sculpted body. As a devil he was built like this to represent an incarnation of desire. All pure-bred devils were attractive men and women by human standards, but Emrys seemed to be a more exaggerated version.
He is huge!
His half-erect cock was more than enough to draw her attention and inflame her lust.
Emrys' eyes than began glowing as he began radiating a tremendous amount of power. He slowly got on the bed and laid down. "Get on top of me."
Yasaka nodded and got on top, knowing this would be a crucial moment to her recovery and thus could not afford to screw up. Not to mention this type of situation did not really arouse much if any embarrassment from her.
When she laid down on top of him, Emrys felt her enormous breasts squish against his rock-hard chest, allowing him to feel their wonderful softness. A sense of comfort arose between the two as their body heat was shared.
"Now make sure you offer no resistance to what's about to happen. I need you to completely relax."
Yasaka nodded.
Emrys then began the preparations. His sensory skills were put to the max as he began releasing a lot of his magic power which came in the form of threads of condensed purple magic. The magic threads responded to his will and began interweaving together on top of the two, forming a large and complex magic circle.
It was unlike anything Yasaka had ever seen. While she had a basic understanding of magic circles and comprehend them to a certain extent, the complexity of the one being created by Emrys was headache inducing. Her eyes widened in shock when even more magic circles, smaller in size but equally complex to the large one above them began forming around them as if creating some sort of barrier.
Yasaka did not want to look at them anymore and hence turned to look at Emrys. Her eyes became glazed as she saw the look of intense focus on his face as he concentrated. He was looking even more attractive to her.
Emrys groaned as he felt a large portion of his magic power being depleted as he drew all the magic circles around them to aid in the transferral process. Next came the most difficult part.
His glowing eyes closed as his mind delved deep into his consciousness before eventually arriving in an empty space full of small white dots and a large ball of translucent white energy, his soul.
He didn't hesitate before placing both his hands towards his soul.
The spherical shape of the ball immediately began distorting as Emrys began pulling on the energy within while his soul resisted. The way his soul struggled made it seem as if it would explode at any moment and Emrys knew…that would be the case if he was careless.
He had to take this extremely slowly.
Not to mention, doing something like was extremely painful. Not in the physical sense but in a way that was not describable with words. It was similar to the feeling of despair when someone dear to your heart dies in a horrific manner only much worse given that the actual soul was slowly getting destroyed.
The energy from Emrys soul began slowly flowing into the ethereal body within this empty space causing the translucent white ball to become smaller and smaller overtime.
At the same time, the magic circles around the two began glowing as they first began absorbing the soul essence coming from within Emrys and converting it into pure essence which could be used by Yasaka. Soul essence was essentially parts of a living being's soul and thus it had their imprint. No one but that person could use it thus it was necessary to destroy that imprint to purify the soul essence into useable essence.
That's what the magic circles did before it began injecting the essence into Yasaka in a controlled manner.
Yasaka couldn't help but gasp as she felt a strange power entering her and then disappearing. It felt very mystifying as if her body was slowly being strengthened but that was only a side effect of her soul slowly recovering. Her weakened state robbed her of many abilities so she couldn't check her own condition even if she wanted to.
When she felt the body under her heat up and move a bit, she looked down and couldn't help but gasp. Emrys' face was distorted into one of extreme pain.
She felt tempted to kiss him just to provide some comfort but she did not dare do it. If his concentration broke then she knew it would spell disaster for both of them.
Emrys watched in apprehension as his soul became weaker and weaker as he essentially ripped off parts of. He kept monitoring Yasaka's condition as well to make sure everything went smoothly and to see if her soul recovered to a point where he could stop. If she didn't recover to a sufficient point then all this would have been for nothing as she would die soon after. But he also had to make sure not to give himself a death sentence by damaging his soul too much.
If he had not been confident regarding his own knowledge and abilities and given Kunou that promise…he probably would not have gone this far.
Emrys' eyes soon widened when he was getting dangerously close to the point of no return.
Due to how weakened his soul was getting, something from within began making its presence known. It looked like another small ball only it was very tiny and seemingly had some chains around it. The small ball was a dark purple in color and felt very powerful and primordial.
What the hell is this?!
How is this in my soul?!
Emrys couldn't comprehend any faster as he reached the line and Yasaka also had recovered enough of her soul. He quickly broke off the connection and stopped draining his soul essence.
Given the draining effect stopped, the ball surrounded by chains disappeared as his soul returned to its normal calm state but it was significantly weaker. His soul was the equivalent of a little child, possibly infant. Very weak and fragile.
But also, it acted like a blank state.
What the hell was that?
That strange…whatever it was at the core of his soul…how was it even there?
What was it?
"Mmmm…"
The erotic moan brought him out of his thoughts as he saw the flushed face of Yasaka as her body glowed from the aftereffects of having her soul healed with his rich soul essence.
Emrys tried using his sensory abilities but immediately found out that they were significantly weaker than before.
In fact, he never felt this weak before.
When he saw Yasaka turn her attention towards him when he wriggled under hear, she gave him a smouldering hot look.
Warning, small lemon scene
Without warning, she crashed her lips onto his own, ferociously shoving her tongue down his throat with passion and energy like an animal in heat.
Through the corner of his vision, he noticed the emergence of nine golden fluffy tails appearing behind her wriggling around them as if forming a cocoon to shield them from the outside world.
The fur on her tails glowed as she was filled with vitality.
As Yasaka kissed him, she moved her hands across Emrys' chest, feeling his wonderful toned muscles as she trailed downwards. Eventually, one of her hands grasped his cock which was now filled with blood as it stood up attentively.
If it wasn't for her stroking him, his cock would have been poking her exposed pussy which was glistening with arousal.
"I need to thank you for everything you have done for me."
She purred, her throaty tone carrying a heavy dose of lust.
"Rescuing a queen…has to end in this way otherwise it could be considered as a child's adventure." He said with a smirk.
"Let me thank you my savior…"
Yasaka didn't hesitate to position herself over his cock before slowly descending. This would be the first man she has been with for quite a long time but she couldn't be happier to be with this wonderful man.
Aside from everything he has done for her, his personality just clicked with her in a way that could not compare to any man she has ever met.
When she felt that monstrosity between his pants start to enter her, she couldn't help but confirm her recent thought.
"S-So big…mmmmm…"
The way his long and thick cock stretched her walls to their limit as he slowly filled her felt incredible. Not to mention the pain from lack of sufficient lubrication mixed in with the pleasure felt especially wonderful and satisfying with how hot her body felt.
"AHHHHH!"
Yasaka screamed in ecstasy as she felt his cock penetrate her cervix and invade her womb, the sensation sending her over the edge due to how sensitive she was.
Emrys groaned as he felt Yasaka's walls clamp down on him with a vice-grip trying to milk his seed but with no success. Taking advantage of her current state, he flipped her around so that he was on top and brought her knees to her shoulders.
The mating press was one of the positions he liked a lot and he began pumping in and out of her with intense ferocity despite how exhausted he felt.
These sensations were quite a bit milder than what he was used to with Nualia but then again, the dark elf always liked to dial pleasure to a twenty on a scale of ten. Even if the pleasure was nowhere as close to with what he experienced with her, the pure euphoric expressions on Yasaka's face with her tongue hanging, eyes rolled back, hands gripping her legs and toes curled up was more than enough to fuel him with another equally powerful sensation.
It was the same one he felt when he dominated Nualia.
Knowing the sheer bliss Yasaka was experiencing made him turn what they were doing into something more ferocious.
Pure animalistic mating as if they were in heat.
After a long time of pounding her, he turned Yasaka around so that she was on all fours before fucking her doggy style. Grabbing a handful of breasts, he played with those wonderful soft tits, appreciating every inch of them and sending jolts of sharp pleasure by pinching and playing with her nipples.
Yasaka had no idea how many times she had cum but she was in no position to care as she just rode the waves without care.
Eventually, she felt the warm sensation in her womb as he deposited his seed inside of her.
"I'm CUMMING!" She screamed one last time before falling on the bed unconscious.
Emrys fell on top of her, very tired from everything that had happened.
He needed some rest but…he didn't want to rest.
Closing his eyes, he felt Yasaka's soul which was looking very healthy and bright. He began analyzing it to make sure there weren't any complications before turning to analyze his own soul.
He was far too vulnerable for his liking.
As such he first began to go into a deep mediation and recover his strength while his body experienced the wonderful sensations of Yasaka's walls gripping him even while she slept.
And that's the end of this chapter.
This was my first fight scene and I feel there is a lot of room for improvement so please provide me with feedback.

Kuoh Town!
