Riser Phenex.
He has many names inside the Famiglia, from left hand to exemplar manbitch, some called him Riserwagon and others just call him the most loyal man (read: idiot) of the entire Underworld to the Famiglia without being gay… to be fair recently there were a few guys in the famiglia that joined in hopes that Kane Gremory was an equal opportunity Lust devil because they saw how gorgeous was the hair of the boss of Caelum Ardor.
Riser may know the method but he wasn't going to try it Bova would kick his ass if he tried it, only Kane Gremory was manly enough to use dragon blood as his shampoo.
But well the issue was clear, even on working clothes Master Kane was attracting traps… so the guys began to make bets to see if a recruit was flat like a board or just femboy and laugh at Kane because, to be honest loyalty was loyalty but Kane liked to fuck with others so much that the rest also give him shit.
For the near two years Riser Phenex has been a Mafioso, he had learned lots of things from his master and lord in the arts of seduction and women bending that would make everyone become wide-eyed and lose their breath in shock.
For example…
The boss was an absolute Tsundere that doesn't mean anything bad!
Sure normally he does acts like many are faceless mooks in the famiglia or ignores the existence of Bova like a bug.
Then you see him spend three hours of his life trying to help Bova to do his math homework and taught the value of economics. Then taught the dragon the first three years of math so it was understood and accepted money or bribes with fights in exchange for putting questions in the middle of it.
Mr. Tannin was crying with happiness at the high grades of 12/100 on the final exams of math when the guys partied on Dragon Lands before Sai was sent away from Babyls.
It was a surprise for Riser to discover that, but it makes a lot of sense when one learns how caring Master Kane was for everyone around him. It didn't matter who you were Caelum Ardor has your back, that was the goal when master Kane made the organization a place where everyone could have a place to belong.
And now in the Famiglia was an important issue.
There was an issue with Kane Gremory their boss, for the past week since his return from a contract he has been acting weird… weirder in ways that weren't accounted for before!
Yesterday even…
"You can call her a bitch." Ban a friend of Bova and supposed the guy that his fiancée paid with a porn mag to kill him advised him. "She is a bitch, everyone knows that she is a bitch and thanks to your boss is a bitch with a bomb for a head."
The Fourth Flavor sometimes is so sinfully and delicious that causes random increase of power, the explosive temper of Rize Kimaris does make sense now.
"That seems counterproductive when my goal is fucking her." That blunder didn't piss out the Raum bastard.
"Meh. Rize isn't going to accept anyway." Ban just snorted like it was just how things are. "She hates being ordered things and not matter what you do she is going to fight every step."
He will need the help of Master, how does one deals with a bitchy fiancée? Does he have to challenge her to a rating game or break one of the most sacred rules of the Famiglia to simp? No! There must be a way to deal with bitches and he knew that Master Kane has the answer.
"Boss we finally brought who stole reserves of the fourth flavor." One of the lower ranks initiates brought over one of the thugs that Master Kane set out as a failure.
Seriously, when testing waters outside of Underworld he really had to put some. We lost a lot of London market revenue but was less than 20% of investment thanks to having been prepared for some moron fucking things up for everyone.
"Boss what are you waiting for!?" Bova called out, this is why we tell him to be the silent and strong type instead of opening his mouth.
There is a method that was already tested to be very efficient while Master Kane gets to do a, no pun intended, deal with the devil of suffering or suffering for disappointing him.
"Ah, him? Cut a few fingers and take one of his balls." Master Kane just said uncaringly before returning to check papers.
Everyone gasps at the punishment.
It was tame, too simple, and uncaring that it didn't fit the leader of the Famiglia that we all adore, cursed as a complete manwhore and complete crazy bastard without any common sense in terms of what was the Geneva conventions that humans made.
Master Kane didn't even do a small talk to maximize terror!
Riser had to stop a shudder at the memory as he entered the office of the leader of the Famiglia, it was just-MY PRECIOUS!
HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT HE WANTS IT.
He was bathed with transparent flames, the feeling of overwhelming desire came and ended in a flash. What was that? He didn't have even a single moment to prepare himself before he fell into that… that madness his knees feel so weak and the air got out in a ragged manner as he noticed that his hands were almost in the neck of his master.
"You were affected by a curse, be more careful in my study Riser." The amused voice of the devil in front of him.
"What was that?" He asked with worry, his mind wasn't his own for a second
"…Just something that I got from a friend that I made on my contract." Master Kane was still burning in transparent flames. "I am using my flames to deal with the curse while studying it."
Shit, he was still down. It was hard to notice when he had his bandages… but even Riser has to admit that it did make him look intimidating even when he was shorter than average and it was kinda hard to notice how tall or short his master was when he constantly changes it to fuck with others.
Wait this isn't the moment to realize the weirdness of the perspectives he had.
"We, and I mean the guys, are going to just visit Dis." It was time of using the big guns and get their boss to unleash his mojo once again.
"Even Bova?" Master Kane asked cautiously like he had to deal with infuriating shit.
"Even him." Riser nodded expecting this reaction.
It takes time to get used to that habit but Lord Beowulf taught him that even the nice Dragon Slayers are passive-aggressive with dragons when they haven't reached the peak, a pseudo indifference is a very positive improvement based on his lord's willpower to ignore his urges to do harm or dominate Bova.
As a side note, Dragon Slayers also are generally assholes of the biggest category when adapting to newly inborn senses and wants that normally are opposites of their favorite prey.
"Fuck it, this has been a long ass time since I have done something like just chill." They all keep doing something important for the famiglia or just spending time with their respective women to do some bro time.
When do they have time to complain about the bitches in the Rating Game seasons? When they had time to just talk about the best proportions show of tits and ass of the different outfits Magical Levia-Tan? There have been many cultured and important discussions about the best moments of their respective girls that had been kept paused for a good while too!
Satan dammit he was still curious that Jack was working on getting a doctorate, did she manage it?
"…You are right." The boss of the Famiglia agreed probably reading his mind. "Also stop that polite shit, you are my brother now."
"You are still the boss and the man that I most admire." Riser shamelessly replied, Kane Gremory was the reason why he could fuck an amazon above a valkyrie on a good day.
With a tired breath, Master Kane changed his clothes to the usual and took a different and less damaged top hat from his collection.
That was in the opposite part of the room.
With his tail.
Huh.
"A new part? You didn't tell anyone about it." True Form was hard and he barely got something out of it, how Master Kane did it was part of savant and part not having to sleep
Some devils had been lucky and gotten parts of themselves after the distribution of the Fourth Flavor began but was frustrating as more than a few began to try to get more parts including his own fiancée Reze Kimaris who has been far more active since her head turned into disposable bombs.
A tisks took his attention back to reality as Master Kane just gave a dirty look at the tail like it was a piece of crap and the tail just moved slowly in a mocking manner before disintegrating.
"Anyone can reach the same is called effort, use a dictionary if you don't realize how much you have managed to do too." 'You can do it I trust you bro' was less unsaid but not ignored.
It took a lot of willpower to keep the laugh inside, a typical tsundere-like answer. He must need to thank Lord Lucifer for telling him the triggers.
After getting out of the Black Market the plan 'Believe in Panties get back Kane's Mojo began' and Ban will never choose operation names again.
Beginning with all the guys getting to watch the newest movie of Leviathan Serafall-sama… it was basically soft-core porn. No even a single man in the group could deny it; you all were going to watch the movie to see the scenes of clothes torn apart, the tentacle monster emphasizing breasts, and the first movie where the 'eternal rivals' of the boss appeared in their summer forms.
Taking a quote from Master Kane's book, Bova's opinion doesn't count.
If the fetish of the boss doesn't give him back the motivation then drastic measures will be required.
"I am sorry but the movie that you wanted to see was caught on fire." Fuck! That was your master plan.
"We have Super Fast and Mega Furious, the story of the film is largely concerned with street fighting in motorcycles, heists of weapons, police corruption, and family." The clerk offered weakly, but they are members of the mob that isn't going to work!
"Fuck it, I want to see those pigs get what deserve." Bova Tannin entered the cinema. Used 20 lilims to buy overpriced snacks.
Bova you fo-!
"I hate to say it but Bova has a smart idea for once." Kane Gremory entered the cinema. Used XXX amount of lilims to buy the whole shop of snacks.
-enius! Truly you made dragons proud!
Howler and Ban used nepotism to get free food.
It was honestly how he imagined it to be, minus the panty flash of magical girls, at least until some fucks in the movie began to talk shit about how gangs and organized crime worked, it was one of the most insulting things when Riser had been working his ass off to lift up the Caelum Ardor from the petty gang and then turn into part of the culture of Babyls full stop it was something that belonged to his generation.
And these fucks were making it look easy…! It wasn't! Maybe for Master Kane but he wasn't the standard that others could follow.
At some point, Ban stole the popcorn of basically every single other damn devil in the cinema just throw at the movie when something stupid happened and Bova just did Bova stuff the less said the better.
Howler was the token good guy and didn't do anything wrong except make an asshole stop molesting a girl and make said asshole become a cuck.
It wasn't a surprise that it ended with a full-blow royal battle inside the cinema.
It reminded him of the old times before Sai was exiled to the devils' version of Detroid… wait did Master Kane talk with Sai? Shit, we didn't invite the boss to the bi-week bro time.
That realization was put aside when he just teleported away from his place because Ban just used him as a meat shield cutting him in two!
"Riser died!" Ban shouted and used his torso to bash the sword guy!
"Those bastards!" Howler shouted and raged… the sad thing, was that he genuinely believed that Howler was being sincere.
"For Riser!" Master Kane declared war and dropkicked someone.
He would feel glad that Master Kane was recovering his fire once again and having fun like it should be the natural order of the world.
But The bastard took his legs and bashed someone with them after!
"For Riser!" Ban blocked another slash with his torso and made one of his arms fall.
"For Riser!" Bova took his severed arm and slapped the shit out of someone with it.
"You all suck!" He shouted at them once they began to put the different parts of his body back when the battle was over on the top of a pile of bodies.
"Hail Satan Riser is alive!" Everyone shouted and only Howler was sincere about it.
It was then that he could help but laugh with the rest of the devils of the Famiglia, by Lilith's tits all the members of this group was an insane asshole and we still liked to spend time with each other to do even more stupid and fun things that didn't involve political games like his Master called it… it was a proof how utterly insane was the heir of Gremory could enjoy it all the way from manners and different manners that everything means totally different things.
Then all of them just decided to use the looted money to go from bar to bar to drink booze, eat food, and flirt with random women while Master was doing money laundering… To be fair with the Greed devil that was probably one the most entertaining things as he was being completely in his zone again.
There was something about Kane Gremory that desired communication and understanding, every new person meet was like a drop of water for him, it didn't seem much at first but when so many others his boss seeks interaction and enjoyed it like the Sky that he calls himself never judged anyone for their desires it wasn't his right.
Things just continued becoming as chaotic as usual, so tiring with so many weirdnesses happening as the eyes of their boss flashed multiple times, so damn painful to keep smiling because his lungs hurt so much from all the laughing, and then he had to cry because his fiancée dropkicked him from the top of a building.
Truly it was proof that Pillar devils were bullshit as she could make a perfect rider kick explosion included while he could tank it without problems.
Seriously what he should do with her.
Master Kane who looked at the situation just let out a tired breath of air like the whole thing was just an annoyance for him. Okay, you damn amazing (and crazy) miracle maker give me your wisdom! What I am doing wrong? What do I need to do to have her happy with this marriage? Just tell me what to do my Master!
"Riser I will tell this as your brother-in-law and friend, your fiancée is the mesugaki stereotype that loses to the dick every single time and has a thing for angry sex that leaves her crouch sore." Master Kane said with a tone of frustration like he was explaining that water is wet.
…What?
"Fuck her and hard, she will come at you to challenge her loss of 'honor' and impale herself with your dick to beat you." Master Kane took a grip of the shirt and put him close to his now purple eyes. "But is an excuse, do some sweet love making with lots of words of loving and then she will be blushing. Don't use dirty talk, and you are green for the rest of your life with a loving dere dere masochistic wife." His eyes were insanely twisted beyond understanding.
Like Greed and Envy before separating to take an entire bottle of alcohol and said things like fucking lucky bastard brother-in-law before celebrating with the rest of their friends for the breaking of Riser's legs.
WHAT THE FREAKING!?
…
…
…
Riser Phenex's stared at the ceilings of his room.
His dick was broken three times by following Master Kane's advice, but he couldn't bring himself to care. He couldn't bring himself to think that maybe he was a moron that didn't see the clues when they were clear, but his master was always the insightful one of the two. This haze was still there an hour since his fiancée passed out in his chest.
"Riser-sama, we need more training." Suvia, the Queen of the peerage advised. "I don't feel my legs." White liquid oozed from her holes too.
Diana, Xuelan, and Yubeluna were completely out of the realm of conscience and just there on the floor.
Yeah, Riser Phenex didn't have the right to bitch about anything about his life, loving harem, sex maniac future wife, great job and respect from his fellows, a good family that loves him, friends who are as crazy as they are fun to spend the eternity or as close is it for devils and everything that any devil would want.
You weren't lucky for that.
You were lucky for having a best friend.
Riser and the guys were right.
You were just too depressed before the intervention.
That was alright, you weren't omnipotent. You were just someone who wanted more. The more you saw, the more you wanted and the more you suffered from it as it was natural, it was a feeling that you didn't truly experience until now and there wasn't shame in getting help and support.
[Love was a beautiful pain.]
Do you regret loving her or meeting those adorable bastards of my friends? No. You just had to accept pain and just make these emotional muscles get swole enough to make the brain function in the same crazy and semi-unstable way as before, you didn't deny that you were more than just a bit insane, even if you couldn't feel any single emotion that denies that it was the source of some of the best moments of your life living in the past wasn't your style.
Satan be dammed, you had some of the best friends in Underworld and you mean friends like Grirm, Wryneck, and Totorot, the brothers of another mother.
And Bova.
…He counted too.
Fuck, you haven't seen So-chan in so fucking long and your methane-filled airhead mind avoided her, Satan you even convinced Acchan of invade because you wanted to hurt and spend time away from home to not be reminded of Tonelico.
It was a mess; you were an absolute mess for too long.
Hell, you haven't done reunions for the operations anti-Santa of this year.
You needed a lot of compensation for your girls for being neglectful, Zest was walking straight for many days for fucking Lilith sake! You were being a bad King and future husband! You haven't satisfied Shelia's sexually instead of just giving her energy by touch because you weren't into it.
So much to pay back.
And the first step was getting the elder brother of Miyu.
When you entered this new world your first action was just to take a breath.
A deep breath and saw the world differently.
Synchrony between your heart and the invisible one coursing through the entire Sky and Earth, understanding and paying attention to the flows that already were present.
It was genuinely dying, this world was hurt so much that was bleeding and hemorrhagic through every little crack, this was it.
Whimpering. It was getting cold.
A patient inside a hospital who was conscious but couldn't move anymore.
You just injected Purification into your steps, the transparent flames moving through the cracks.
You weren't strong enough to stop this and even if this world was trying to push you out... you couldn't ignore this, Cernunnos would try to save and would be managed to save this world as fluffy has the willpower for it. This extremely dense mana was just too strong to break completely for a regular devil when it enters into the body, one of your power would have died of the toxicity as it accumulates like mega cancer if it wasn't for your adaptations helping you out.
You walked around, the collapse was going to happen eventually but you will give comfort until the moment of your return.
Titles didn't define you, being a Calamity wasn't like a job just a right that you took to kill Vortigern.
"Where they are?" Acchan wasn't in the mod of waiting.
You began to draw a schematic, it wasn't different from your usual work for Santa hunting planning and design shops for your Famiglia.
"Here is the position, the strongest are here and the leader is there." You drew a few smiley faces around. "Don't attack here as I want to search the library for something useful."
"I see. And what was the origin of this illness?" [Mages] You didn't need to state the obvious Intuition mine.
[Clocktower deserves it]
"Clocktower." You told him.
"We will meet in 24 hours. Find Shirou As... as we promise Miyu." You have the feeling that Acchan was enjoying paternity as much as science now.
Acchan was immediately in his True Form, there wasn't a transformation sequence or time to power up. He didn't need it, he always was capable of entering in that state like a change of expression or removing a bit of dead skin after a day on the beach it was just too easy.
And he was already working.
Magic was just taken down without cracks or sounds, just unmade into the base expression as your Intuition broke down to increase your understanding of Bounded Fields as the World itself broke down all the similar variants of this phenomenon.
"I found them." You will never admit that you almost piss yourself after hearing those words.
You didn't see Acchan's face but could feel it.
Anger.
That was the only emotion that the Super Devil could feel at this moment.
He let you alone as you blinked.
And when you were going to open your mouth.
He returned with a torso that you didn't know if it was from a man or a woman and something in the hand that reminded you of the family Grimoire that Nezuko almost consumed when she recently joined your Peerage.
I can't see others, search for him. Show them this if they resist.
He threw the torso to you, it didn't haven't eyes, there was an explosion that took them out while being internal, but it still could still be feel the sensation of fear and despair sapped into the bones. Devils weren't good guys, we were monstrous at our core and humans were going from cattle to enemies in the old times. This reaction was natural when the one who surpassed Beelzebub attacked fast and without mercy without the big Golden Asshole in the Heaven coming to help.
Acchan wasn't like your brother it was order forced into a chaotic world filled with errors.
And it showed when you could barely feel him change things with his magic, the mystique of Kankara Formula made your brain feel like it was being hammered and was impossible for a Bael to learn, your mind and his just worked too different to even put a micro aspect of it into your curses.
You probably could write a book and still not understand shit of the implementation.
[If you wanted to punish yourself out of guilt spend time with Acchan and Miyu to help in their experiments.]
You began to move away from this bullcrap.
The castle wasn't half back and the furniture that wasn't destroyed by Acchan was collected as you checked the place and winced multiple times at the sheer amount of destruction caused in so little time or was that Acchan used multiple bodies or time dilatation?
[Both.]
Yeah, forget about Grayfia-nee is Acchan who is the scary Satan when pissed off.
You got close to the library, taking as much as you could as it was important so you could expand the family library but considering that most were shit it needed to be carefully selected what books should be taken. At least Acchan didn't destroy this part like the cards and armory,
[The heat was building up.]
You prepared yourself to do the same acts as Acchan as your senses feel that presence enters into the room, power and wrongness that it could be brought into the world, a single second, the enemy was an Ainsworth there was no need of holding back.
So you moved slowly, murderous intentions were just burned by Purification and spread out by Harmory, taking a few books, the sound didn't come in your steps a skill from stalking and hunting beast in Britain, all the different skills and talents that you had moving towards conflict as your nature of Calamity was a single step from taking a life.
Step by step, you were moving, you were going to kill that was your mission… you didn't worry about other things until.
You saw her.
Her eyes, were so sad.
It was...
As if Tonelico was alone.
The pain of being alone, of being abandoned, of being betrayed, the gaze was just a corpse that couldn't live anymore but was forced by other forces to continue. Would Tonelico be like that if she was alone without Wryneck, Totorot, Ector, and Grirm?
What would Tonelico even do in your place?
[She would try to help no matter how painful it is.]
The heart hurts, those eyes bright and fragile reminded you of her.
This pain... It was just too fresh for you.
But the heart wants what the heart wants.
So you began to open your mouth.
"Your hair is so pretty, it's so bright and smooth." She said those words before you had any time of truly get back your balance.
Wait what?
[She mean what she said.]
It was hard but you just smiled at this, it... just killed your momentum for a bit.
"My name is Kane Gremory." You presented yourself. "The Ainsworth failed their invasion so… This is us hitting back."
[You were being once again greedy.]
"…Oh." Yes, oh.
You didn't really know how to follow up but picking at her was... Part of you was reminded of why you came here, kill the Ainsworth family for having attacked Miyu and maybe Underworld but Miyu was why Acchan and you came here.
It wasn't the same for you as what Acchan wanted to do.
It didn't need to be.
"I came to kill you." You admitted it, there wasn't a way that it can be avoided. "That is why I am here, Acchan is strong and figured out how to stop your cards from working."
You took a deep breath, it was hard. Part of you wanted to have her, wanted to erase that sadness from her eyes, to claim her to give her a place in your Sky so she suffer as you did after being separated from your Peerage and later from Tonelico.
"This is a dying world, I saw and feel that you all were telling the truth since the moment that I stepped into it." You keep talking and even if you didn't want there were things that needed to be said. "Your cause is just and I admit that I would do similar and worse things that you all tried to if our places were different."
But you will not save this world because Miyu was yours and this world was worthless to you.
"And the invaders today are devils, it was never our job to truly save humanity, we are selfish, we are sinners, we are free from many inhibitions, and for a long time we were truly the bad guys." You walked around her taking a moment to set the tone of this meeting.
[You need time, to find the truth.]
"Now I ask you this question." You smiled, it was the same expression that scared others. "You aren't human and aren't a puppet who are you?"
This is the same smile that Howler called an enemy of the men.
"I-I am Erika Ainsworth." Her voice was shaky and blushing but you didn't pay attention to her words.
[Pandora]
"Pandora? A nice name." The dominos began to fall after that single quote.
You saw cracks, so many cracks forming in her mind and expression, not many knew how easy was to open these cracks and how to hurt others in ways that your fist couldn't. In this case you were looking at a girl that was from becoming catatonic as memories and experiences that she tried to push back in her were just moving towards the front of her mind.
[No matter how much one tries the past can't be completely forgotten without matter any method is used.]
"I am not! I am no! I am not." She tried to deny it but her mask cracked the eyes began to lose the fake light and turn cold, but you preferred it like this.
[It was better a bitter truth than sweet lies]
You keep touching those cracks and keep breaking her any argument and lie that she could use to trick herself as her expressions began to change the little girl was someone that never existed and you wanted to meet the truly her, the frustration, the pain… so many things that you could understand after experiencing them yourself.
Your words began to carry weight and heat, her expressions mixed with your own memories, frustration, and guilt accumulated as Tonelico replaced Pandora the more you tried to break the delusions many memories clashed as you saw the grief so similar to another.
The denial as tried to convince herself.
Stop.
The negotiation as she lied and lied but couldn't change what both of you knew.
Stop please.
The anger as she wanted to force you to follow the lie.
Stop reminding me of her.
The sadness as her arguments break into pieces.
Stop making me feel like this.
"
Please stop talking like her!" You shouted and the buildup in your soul imploded outward, your distress was just too much.
You lost your self-control, this moment you almost made an error so big that almost couldn't be remedied. Your transparent flames covered her as you tried to burn away the damage that you caused you tried to pull before her body and brain truly understood what passed.
Life, you feel life again after it was stopped for a second.
You didn't open your mouth, you barely managed to keep yourself from stepping back, you were a devil here and couldn't show how you truly feel. Never your guilt or fear can be show.
Pandora's reaction was just being stunned, she didn't act like everyone else in her position she didn't rage, feel terror or the other emotions associated with it. She just stared confused and moved her hand until it was above her heart in confusion.
"You killed me." Tears, true tears came from her eyes. "You really kill me." It broke a tiny part of your heart watching her do that.
They were filled with happiness, of finally seeing something that she thought that was impossible.
"For a second, you are incredibly frail." You managed to restore the beat of her heart to avoid any damage permanent.
This conversation, it drained you to the point that overreacted and brought your power outside. You had avoided spending time with So-chan and Fi-chan because it hurts to have them around so much that this was going be the result of hurting others because you were hurting by memories.
But it needs to hurt.
Sometimes pain help, it helps to remember good times, it helps to remember those happy moments. Tonelico was worth the pain and you could live with that if only to keep those memories alive.
Push through, endure, and then grow through it.
You were going to continue talking, it was an emotional drain and painful but you had to continue even if you had to leave the talking to your Intuition for a bit.
"And I am the End of all Life, You are alive, it doesn't who you are, in front of a Calamity everything will die." Oh, Satan why you say that!? It feels so chunni and stupid! Why emotionally drained brain!? Your Intuition just betrayed you.
[You need a kick to get out of the emo zone.]
"Darius never truly had a chance." What the fuck is a Darius? [Stupid human who through himself smarter than he was] "This is truly is the end?"
"I am many things, not just a living calamity." 'Could be yours too' you wanted to say but you didn't, it didn't matter if it was because of Tonelico's memory or Pandora herself.
It was just too soon for you.
[Do you want another shot bitch?]
"What you want? What is what you truly want?" 'For me to die finally' she asked that and you heard it.
"I want to see the true you." Your answer was honest.
No with your intuition but with your own eyes, you wanted to see Pandora and understand why she was like this.
She had an honest to Satan Mahou Shoujo transformation as her body began to get older you had to admit something to all the men of culture.
You made a mistake.
Her dress fits SO WELL! The exposed back, the colors that fit so well her tone color of hair and skin, the collar in the neck, the back winged bow, the motif that doesn't put attention to sexiness but leaves exposed shoulders, and if her breast were bigger would have a cleave widow… so much power that it was almost making you salivate as you were filled with a need born of hundreds of times that you have seen So-chan and Fi-chan's Yuri but not that yuri acting, Sera-nee shows where her clothes broke a little showing skin and Miyu completely defenseless and seductive actions.
Take her.
Crap, Kane jr is awakening while she is beginning to talk and think in something less sensual like if she didn't have those clothes!
…It says a lot about you that you genuinely think that nudity was less sexy than Mahou Shoujo outfits… So-chan you broke your consort and need to take responsibility for having made him a deviant that gets off on this.
But you committed a grave error when you began to focus on her immature chest.
[Flat and filled with hundreds of different hopes for the future.]
You saw the potential of Humanity with your Intuition as Hyper Mode was triggered to not miss a single detail of this miracle for all mankind… no to all the Broship.
Hundreds of shapes and sizes for breasts, all that would fit perfectly in her body type. Hundreds of different manners that her body could shape and develop into adulthood.
Lolicious, MILFy, Mature, Chubby, Petite, Oppai loli, the flat that leaves a bottom-heavy look even more delicious... more and more types showed themselves in those little mounts that had so many possibilities that made you be glad of being born as a man.
And Kane Jr was awakened and out of your pants if it wasn't because your transparent flames burned so hard that made your dick invisible. Were your poker face still there? [Yes] Good she will not notice that you were having erotic revelations about her.
"P-Pervert!" …Crap, she noticed.
You aren't going to admit that you did anything bad at admiring her so you will just lift an eyebrow.
"You have been staring at my chest and didn't hear anything!" That you did but…
...In your defense, her dress looks so good that in the need distraction but you ended up seeing the Valhalla of breast and were very tempted in raising her dress to check her ass, legs, and hips.
"You are still undressing me with your eyes!" She was pointing shakeky to you.
Ah, that expression was marvelous, truly your massive lack of tack and stupid strong libido work because that obviously was your plan and not just checking her out.
"Nobody can blame me, you are a beautiful dream girl, and that dress you enhanced your good points." And she is blushing covering her non-existent chest.
She wasn't human, she lived far too long to be considered one.
You knew but didn't understand what means longevity.
So you wanted to figure her out and truly understand what she experienced.
And you just asked and talked with her, it was nice to just share your tale and heard hers. The pain of separation, the pain of being alone, and so many struggles that you both shared, it was just nice to have someone to hear. You aren't going to treat her like Tonelico as Pandora was different, for a while your friends didn't allow Tonelico to be broken before you meet her but there wasn't a group of stupid loyal friends for Pandora and she broke.
Eventually outliving them if she got someone too.
You knew that many devils end up forgetting that in their young and passionate, the separation will hurt them eventually too no matter what, but maybe they knew and still decided to do it because they feel that it was worth it.
The idea of that could have happened to your loved ones was something that couldn't be described as the same feeling that drives you to hunt all those Fae, it wasn't only Tonelico this time but all your Peerage and Famiglia.
It was... nice to just let it all go.
And so when the 24 hours that Acchan gave you were almost spent as you just were with Pandora.
"I just want everything to be over." Pandora or Erika Ainsworth admitted finally. "Darius promised me that, but he was broken and died a long time ago." And was looking the corpse that Acchan gave you.
It was time to take another choice.
"I don't want to be alone a day more." She was like you in a way.
"It wouldn't if you allow me." You offered your hand.
If she wants a place to truly, then you can be her Sky.
"Wouldn't be sad if you don't have your own happiness?" You wouldn't a tale being sad but… that is what you wanted. "Humans live short lives, they don't really understand, you want a happiness that could truly last but isn't the same because everything just dies off."
A genuine conversation brought you to this realization, you didn't want to kill her and you didn't want to leave her here but she was just too dangerous and in too much pain.
"I will live for a long, I had time to think about that and acknowledge that I can't truly get humans because they just will change too fast." You were a Gremory lifespan was decided by you and only you. "Would you want to try again? Both of us who are truly incompatible with the human way of living."
"I don't know how to live." She almost began to cry again, and you smiled at that she truly was a cry baby. "What I would do if I come with you?"
"Then will you trust me to choose for you?" You asked her as her eyes widened, her emotions changed so much as both of you just admitted how fucked you were. "Will you put your fate in the hands of a creature that isn't human, one that chooses one over uncountable others and doesn't regret it?"
This is for your own sake. A sky without a single element is just lonely and sad, there wasn't anything to harmonize with it, nothing to help hold all the overwhelming desires, nothing to protect under your wings. It was just like the last day that you spend with Tonelico, you didn't really know the difference between being alive or dead that second that you could have lost her.
[A Night alone without the stars or moon giving company]
If not give her a Famiglia, then your endeavor is to find the strength to finally give her the rest that Pandora wanted. You... Not even for a second, even before you learned to challenge and put destiny in your own hands, ever truly desired to be alone.
And if he didn't wish to give her false hope your needed to truly make a choice.
