Nobody knows, nobody knows the weight that your shoulders carry. You feel it… every day how much was driving you to the depths, of the effort, that sheer discipline that you put so the life that you crafted with your own hands continued to challenge you. Before you go to bed, when you wake in the morning, when the water of the shower hits you, in your office, and even in the rooms where your products were made.
Sometimes you wonder if you could do this if you were capable of taking this challenge and rising through it without surrendering a single instant.
In a less wordy explanation, Zest's libido exploded for some reason and Kane jr was pushed to the extremes to satisfy her.
Day in and day off, she has been non-stop! It reached the point that Jack was using her illusions to help her fuck you in public!
That libido…! It just detonated in a way that you ended up using Purification to take care of the soreness of your hips and genitals when you used curses to give you a weaker body and had to stop using them. Your Pawn libido was just insatiable and your greatest use of Elttil was fixing beds and reinforcing furniture. Daily you had the question your Intuition about whether you could really survive such fierce attacks and if you should stop cursing yourself while getting into the belief that your skin would finally be pierced by the strength of her nails taking a grip on your shoulders.
In the past, Beowulf told you tales about men risking their lives and fracturing their pelvises until the only thing left was dust for the sake of fucking beautiful women.
You fucking belonged with those damn brave men now.
And you will thank Beowulf every day for the training to strengthen the lower body, it made this experience something that you could survive through. You took the pelvis pain (and possible cracks) as a mark of pride and happiness for having such a good relationship with your Pawn, on the other hand, it was a challenge and more importantly.
In the end, you are the guy that beds a bunny girl, a succubus, and your right hand... that doesn't sound right.
[Assassina]
Thanks.
Just you, your bunny, your legal loli milf succubus, and 1 of 1000+ assassina squad in your bed, you could wait for the rest to join, eventually when they are prepared physically and mentally.
You weren't talking only about your cute legion other-selves.
You were patient and could wait for your peerage and extended harem, except Pandora, who was legal and had been a virgin for too long.
[Go back Horny! Go back to the dark pits of Lust!]
...Your Intuition has too much fun with this level of sexual attraction, you blame the fact that Miyu is erotic and seductive as hell, rewatching Sera-nee show like a starved man or guy that was recently detoxified and returning to old vices, and not spending enough time with your favorite duo of magical girls but still watch their movie with one of the biggest boners of your life.
And Pandora was the only magical girl that you could bang until her ahegao became how you remember her.
[Bonk. No horny.]
Your Intuition was a cockblock because of the emotionally unstable mind of Pandora, it takes a lot to hold back.
You actually frowned upon that before releasing a sigh of frustration.
She wasn't going to be better, it was part of her but, like Nezuko's cannibalistic nature there was just something that would be broken and needed to be filled.
...
With your dick!
[No horny!]
What should you do then?
You asked but your intuition was silent if it cockblock you at least should give yourself options of what activities you should do to calm yourself.
That was an important question when you had free time, the Famiglia was alright, there wasn't much to do as a boss, most of the duties were taken care, there wasn't a chance or opportunity for expansion, there weren't decent contracts and you just killed a few pieces of shit with your most recent contractor, nothing about Tonelico yet but you had longevity on your side.
Recently you even saw Pandora's panties today and was reminded to enjoy the day too.
Maybe you should just spend time with your Harem? You know what, you really should and deserved it! It was a whole year since you kissed So-chan or spoiled Fi-chan, fed fingers to Nezuko from the idiots that caused trouble for the family, just asked Miyu about her day, and got into a very interesting talk about spells and magics and physics that was mentally draining but made her look adorable and proud of herself, etc.
Jack was alright at the moment because Jacqueline and you were fucking, a lot.
To the point that you didn't know if it was a passing thing from learning a new form of pleasure or a tiny aspect of your Knight (and still favorite Element) was turning into a Lust devil-like Zest.
And Zest… you just fucked her into a tiny coma today so mission complete you were the best King while Maria was present watching and recording it.
On the other hand, you haven't celebrated Miyu's ascension to Middle-class Devil and are sure that she is going to try for another rank up this year, organizing a celebration should be good it was time to visit Muspelheim again and show her your favorite plane of reality but that was just your opinion and didn't know if she would enjoy it with her family.
Miyu recently has entered into a strange position, not only has been adapted too well to her life as a devil, thriving more than most in this society but also has her own life with two parents who love her and a brother who spoils her and with a greatly crafted schedule, she has more than enough time to reconnect with her sibling.
On the other hand… Your brother-in-law was still having a culture shock and was jobless. Miyu was his breadwinner and hadn't realized that he had become a NEET.
His stubbornness at being human was kind of strange, but following those who were long dead wasn't the correct answer. You don't think that souls would have a record there too so it was a waste if he chooses to live and die as a human.
It was too strange from your perspective.
In about two years the world of Miyu wouldn't have living beings and in around five it would be a dead world, it was a pity that most is getting degenerated so fast and turning into nothing. You could use the item that the purple guy gave you but honestly, you didn't know Shirou enough to visit that place and give him back his lover.
You could also be overthinking and he is just waiting for his sister to piece him, it was a complicated family relationship between a sentai hero, a demon lord, and a magical girl.
Back to what you wanted to do, there were a few things that are very interesting to play with but you didn't have time to indulge in to truly train and get mastery.
[Fluffy is time to truly learn how you move.]
And Grirm, your gift will be of good use.
[You know that you have call him with the wrong name for more than a year?]
...Fuck.
It was an admittedly nice day, the birds were chirping until a blast of fire roasted them alive and the crunchy flavor fills your mouth. Satan you really loved your flames. The grass was so blue and nice to walk into and most of the insects just avoided the zone around you were, indeed the heat was just perfect, this forest was just perfect to rest in the grass and there wasn't a single thing that could stop a relaxation session.
"This wasn't what I expected when you told me to follow you to the woods." Zest was disappointed, she expected outside sex.
You think that camping is still a good thing to do, get out of home and some fresh air, explore a few mountains, try to connect with nature in more than one way, and maybe do a sex marathon but that is just a maybe
"…!" Nezuko on the other hand just gave a thumb up while she watched you prepare her snacks.
You chuckled at those reactions as you made sure of keeping the skinned boar alive while it juices boiled, the vocal cords were ripped before so it didn't scream. With a fast movement of your tail, you cut a good chunk and send it to Nezuko.
"I learned a few tricks that I wanted to share from my life out of home." You began to talk but also needed to mention the reasons why this wasn't a full peerage activity. "Jack wouldn't be capable of learning, Miyu does things in a very scientific way that wouldn't make it hard for her and frustrate her a lot and Maria… is Maria."
Your first pawn just didn't have the patience or maturity to learn this art like this, the other style that you had seen Nezuko practice would fit her better. Asmodeus was said to use malice of others and converge them into a weapon, maybe you could try to imitate that to create your own version of Power of Destruction? Isn't like Baleful Attraction was impossible to understand if you paid enough attention to Maria.
If she had Asmodeus's bloodline, but considering everything she probably have it.
"So I got a few interesting things while I was 'away'." Both of them perked up, it was more or less a taboo to talk about it as it could cause you 'regress', not that it was possible because of your murderous therapy. "So before I share the interesting lesson that I got from fluffy, I believe that I also got the perfect souvenir to give my favorite Rook."
Nezuko immediately took her muzzle and smiled at you.
"I never consumed a Fae." The voice of Nezuko was dreamy as her foodie desires were shown.
You just smiled too, but mentally recoiled in disgust like hell you would give her something so shitty as a Fae, you had something much better.
"Here is your dessert Nezuko." You brought out of your inventory a little dish covered in the still-beating organs and bones of the clan leader of the Wind clan.
And hidden was the still-beating heart that Grirm made for you.
A recreation of Vortigern's Heart, made by one of the best friends that you had the great joy of punching in the face and drinking booze with.
It wasn't a treasure for the dragon slayers, it was more the opposite. It wasn't a legacy that any Dragon Slayer would like to have around, this wouldn't have made another join the hunt.
The seed that would germinate in the birth of a new dragon.
A dragon born from Vortigern, a dragon that almost killed you and worse almost took the future that you could have with Tonelico.
You cooked it, you refined and made it keep all the power.
And Nezuko will be consumed because fuck that overgrown shit fly.
"This is the heart of the dragon." Your eyes flashed into Tengan and smiled as the burning hearth was gifted.
In an instant you saw two paths, one were she lost herself at her instincts and ripped pieces of it crushed what she wanted to consume, and spit what wasn't necessary. She was completely unable to stop herself, her face was flushed as if she was basking in the happiness of the delicious flavor as only partial absorption came from the act.
The other… was the one that you choose.
"Enjoy it." [Translation: Predation time]
Nezuko's mouth watered as the smell hit her.
But she still consumed everything in a way that let you curious as she hardened her flames as cutlery, spoons, knives, forks, and a few others. Eating every bit of the dish with control and pausing between bites but there wasn't a single drop of magical blood, fragments of organ, or meat out and little by little everything was disappearing.
Zest attention was more on the appearance of your Rook was changing as she consumed the heart and even you could admit that it was something that could take the breath of anyone.
Her hair was just turning into a deeper shape, so much deeper black that you have seen in your life like an abyss that eats the light around her, even the tips of her hair looked like the end of the light as at some point is consumed, her eyes so deep and attracting shining like they were made from a pair of diamonds instead of cells, her skin having a paleness that fit her so well and shows a type of royalty that only could come from the lands that the light of the sun can't touch… Beauty of the unknown, that could consume you whole if there wasn't caution. A sort of beauty that enthralls the weak-willed as they just want to see closer. It was a danger that puts your senses to the edge and your beat to slow down.
Could it be called corruption of the desire to see what couldn't be? Could it be called the attraction of the darkness? Could it be called the treasure hidden in the void?
So many fucking yes!
"Did you enjoy it?" Four little words that you managed to get out as your breath was almost lost.
The spell broke as Nezuko put back her muzzle and then gave you a thumbs up!
"…!" At the response, Zest coughed in her hand to hide a little laugh.
Typical Nezuko, even amazing as she was there wasn't a doubt that she was an absolute cutie.
Now that the lunch ended it was a time for business, teaching them or maybe just reminding them of the heartbeats of the world. There were mistakes and errors while you tried to figure out a way that you could teach them the truth that was passed to you by Cernunnos, so many little things were tried and then thrown away as you couldn't really put in words what you truly saw and feel while using the teachings.
It was more feeling than knowing, to truly understand you just needed to truly begin to hear what the world was saying without being blissfully ignorant.
But in the end, you figure out the trick, just make them heard the sound of your own heart beating inside your chest while you match the beats of the world. Having your elements trust their Sky, let you honestly guide them as your Pawn rest her head in your chest and your Rook snuggles with your tail as both of them just heard the beats.
They just have to try to match it, learn the timing that you had constantly without trying, and then begin to feel how it matches with the flow outside your body, always reminding them to never force it to happen just needing to understand that it wasn't necessary to ask or force it to move in a true patter because, in the end, everyone in comparison to the Underworld was just too tiny and insignificant.
At some point in your lesson, your aura just came out and broke the world as you finally saw what truly happened, it was an act that made the flow diverge but didn't stop it completely and eventually move through the cracks that you were making, so dense in some parts while thin on others even if you noticed how new paths were being made anew as the true beating of the heart of the world just continues without stopping.
The Worldbreaker Hunter, the true aspects of your nature caused interesting reactions to the reality that now you could see.
The world can be broken but never killed or beaten, life finds a way it was tough and adapts so as the enemy of Ladon you were made to kill those who believed that could dominate it, you lived and were hard to put down. A World Breaker who survives the worst that could be and crush others under him, but you weren't a killer by nature a survivor and destroyer was what your body followed instead of anything else.
Putting being a Calamity aside, the survival of the most fit was the theme of your existence, to continue existing as an Everlasting Sky.
Your body adapted fast to the different environments, was incapable of being caught in the flow of others immediately and could proceed at breaking it with your aura, was so stupidly stable at the afflictions given by seconds and thirds no matter if the origin was mystical or mundane in nature and then your capacity to understands and learn was what gives you access to survive.
That is what means to be a World Breaker the power to not bend and make it bend to some level instead, to shape your own path in the process.
If Ladon wanted to make his own world.
You wanted to break free from your place.
But was arrogance the act of believing that you could force the world to change, a Sky doesn't force that is understanding of how things are that you could convince the world to change. Never forcing it but giving a guiding hand to make it happen through cooperation.
Senjutsu was a talk, a dance, a debate, and then sharing with a friend.
You weren't alone and will never be because there will be something at your side.
Then at the end of it was the most important lesson that you could give in the cuddle pile.
"So basically you don't try things backward and steal from the flow it's basically making the world try to poison you slowly or just fill your insides with 'rat poison' until it somewhat likes you enough to not actively kill you all the time." Thankfully your face wasn't in Zest's tits and your words could be understood perfectly.
With a 'hmm' you feel Underworld agrees with your simplified explanation, you didn't understand why others first try to take before aligning themselves with the flow. There would be sensorial overcharge that causes reactions similar to addiction as the brain just becomes more active as was the flow of energy from the flow coming through the body.
Even after living almost three years with your Intuition constantly giving you warnings and tips it was still something that cost you mental effort to multitask to balance your senses without having them clash.
Just a single step at a time Kane, adjust yourself to this then later it would be just something in the back of your head like the trigger for Hyper Mode. You need to get used to this flow and put a name towards what you were watching and get to figure out how to make it white noise to be ignored until you pay attention or your Intuition does like wearing a new pair of glasses.
Moving will become a temporal issue to you, paths and even the floor feel different, and the space itself feels less or more depending on how you move your eyes going like it was just like a distortion that makes different pictures or paths for you.
Are you high from the floor of the world? Is the Underworld drugging you for a surprise assfuck to have revenge for all the forest that you have destroyed?
[All was real, there are more efficient paths and manners to move.]
Great just great, there were more secrets and things to scratch from Fluffy gift but at least you know how Cernunnos could ignore the laws of physics and freaking teleport if he was using these 'hidden' paths to move around Fae Britain and you were just going to get used to watching everything like it was a drug trip for power or learn how to feel and use these paths without connecting to the flow.
[Believe in Fluffy, enjoy the Mojo and drink this Loco as your Jojo.]
…You are 37% sure that somehow your Intuition got high, with a tired breath you finally managed to focus and lower the filter to a lesser extent, it still took you a few hours to reach that point even with your intuition helping.
You took a chance to take a break so you could check your Elements and to your surprise, they were sleeping snuggling at you, it was a massive lost the notion of time when you indulged on these new tricks to the point that it was a budding bad habit because you don't get tired like others anymore and there wasn't doubts in your mind that you looked like a complete retarded for a few hours at that by just contemplating hippie stuff.
And the drug trip confirmed it.
So you closed your eyes and tried to meditate deeper, it was a bother but you genuinely had to put the lessons that you got from the animes instead of just calling off this training arc, as Beowulf says if something is easy then you aren't putting enough effort.
And you obeyed those words, pushing your intuition harder as the flow of Nature energies was linked to your Sky… no to yourself because you are the SKY! You didn't need to pay attention, it was simply this flow was something that you just needed to make part of your existence, an instinct, an actual part of you through Harmony and Refine that process using the Sky to make it become as much as you as the blood flowing in the body.
A minute turned ten.
Ten minutes turned into hours.
And a day turned a week.
But you didn't open your eyes, time was just different from the system that you were used to feel.
You were just tapping into the perspective of the world where you lived, simultaneously so fast and slow. Lives are just too tiny to leave a mark alone, and those that do it from so many years of accumulation instead of a visible at the moment just become a truth that long since passed. There were so many things to describe this moment of enlightenment and probably something that could only be considered
But there was just one in your mind, the greatest realization that you got was a very simple one.
Satan damn it, it was boring as fuck!
You feel a whole fucking week of absolute in an instant you were needed to do something!
So after opening your eyes there was just too much energy in your body to just keep yourself sitting like a monk.
And it was still deep in the fucking nigh!
You couldn't move out of your place because that would interrupt the sleep the rest… you should have brought Shelia, she wouldn't have problems bouncing into your lap and was silent enough to make this wait bearable by just fucking.
And now you had a new thing too.
You could see the life of the world better now, at the least this could be useful to check if you needed to double tap someone or not because of how the individual interacts with the planet, Nezuko for example was very active and still conscious with sparks coming from her body from time to time so her Hardening was being used to learn and wasn't truly unconscious, how she mastered this skill?
[She wanted to get out of history lessons and meditated Hard for it]
…You couldn't feel prouder of your Rook, truly Nezuko was a wendigo after your own heart.
With this discovery, you moved your view to the sleeping Zest who managed to reach the point that she could attune to the flow of the planet without needing to pay attention. Just like you, maybe her flames were more specialized for this sort of action.
[Isn't Zest.]
What?
At the interruption, you began to pay more attention to the flow and how it moved in and out of Zest's body, more importantly where exactly it was moving. A little lower from her stomach, it was moving from the womb as the directional axis, and inside was a very tiny lifeforce… no, it was just dense like gravity that takes everything and…
You paused to actively see the tiny soul and dense lifeforce.
…And checked yourself.
[Curse still there.]
…You really underestimated your bunny Lust and willpower.
[The Dying Will of being bred surpassed the power of 'broken condom']
Your Intuition is becoming sassy as fuck, but considering everything it was true that it was very normal that this would happen if you were a human or another fertile species. But you weren't so the most logical answer was that Luck made it possible.
Something less than 1% of occurring was possible like becoming a Dragon Slayer, but your child was…
…Your child, that gives you a feeling that you couldn't truly describe but only express in the silliest and stupid smile that grew in your face, the warm flame in your chest feels so tame in comparison to how hot it was feeling your heart now.
You were happy, so happy that he almost had your mind collapse from so many found emotions positive and negative born from love for your child. It was a deep abyss of hatred, worry, and fear over what would happen if your child was hurt.
It… was. It was!
By Satan, you had the overwhelming desire to do something nice and incredibly kind for your family as you were hit by this epiphany. If your parents and brother feel a fragment of what you were feeling every time that you do something stupid, then is a miracle that they let you get out of home and trusted you to come back every day.
Thankfully the epiphany keeps you from becoming a Sirzechs, you needed to plan and use all your political knowledge, social experience, and skills at abusing the system to plan and push the advantage to make sure that your first isn't screwed over.
Hell, how would [Ravel] even react to knowing that your first child is of another woman?
[She will be overjoyed.]
…You are beginning to think that it was a bit of a bad idea to put Maria and Ravel together, but on the other hand, a happy wife is better than having a very pissed-off wife to be with you. Would be hard to slaughter the Zagan Pillar make it look like an accident and put your kid as the head? You knew that inheriting Gremory wouldn't be possible for them.
More because you planned to rule for a minimum amount of centuries and that Ravel's line would have dibs than any possible impurity in their blood. You can kill anyone that say anything different as they are without doubt perfection as expected of your blood.
Would they even want to rule? …Parenthood was more complicated than you expected, you may need to make guidelines instead of plans and try to follow the steps of your kids in the future rather than planning all their life before they came into the world.
…
Shit, you are going to tell So-chan too! She will kill you or worse make you try to do the same to her!
You aren't prepared for that!
There was so much to be done to convince Lord and Lady Sitri that a consort contract was acceptable and reaching that point was going to basically pull a tooth in terms of frustration, being a member of the aristocracy was filled with so many pitfalls and politics that you loved and hated as they allowed you to screw others and at the same time didn't allow you to lewd magical girls.
Virginity for young girls from the pillars was important not because of human stuff about purity but because pretty much when it doesn't show that basic semblance of respect between pillars occurs the issue of Zest's mother ruining an important deal and connection.
You benefit from it but pretty much two pillars lost face and trust in term deals.
Sadly, on the other side, you couldn't take So-chan without having a good reason or bullshit like loss of face would happen. Subtle plays, long games, and all the reputation for an asspull to damage reputations… you aren't sure how much could affect the Sitri Pillar but there was a proper way of doing things, no feelings hurt and you still can be married to your childhood friend with extra steps.
You still admit that Marnie was by far an easier situation.
[Fuck Naberius you didn't need to worry as much attention when you are stealing an heiress.]
Damn straight!
…
Satan helps you, a child is going to make it complicated for you.
But…
By looking at the face of the sleeping mother-to-be, you couldn't help but feel that everything will be alright. If it's for their happiness you think that you can handle it.
But before you could focus on them there were many things that needed to be done, namely one of the things that probably ended killing you the more time you keep procrastinating this sort of thing.
Meeting your in-laws and making your intuitions clear of having the best girl of their whole species in your harem.
If you had to describe the place where Nezuko lived when she was hibernating? It was a hell hole and not one of the good ones, death tress, wet mud from the blood that made your shoes stain, so cold that your breath could be viewed, and the flow just feel wrong… you were missing something, this was the first time inside a Sacred Gear so it was probably something that the golden fossil made.
…To little data was frustrating.
[This is one of the most stupid and suicidal 'good' choices ever made]
"Probably." You voiced out what you were thinking…
"Gyyya? [Who he is talking to?]"
"Grrr [Don't know.]"
"Ahooo! [His hair tastes good but I can't cut it!]"
Figuring out how to enter into the sacred gear of Nezuko was easy, the answer of the 'how' was fire, but that doesn't change the fact that you were willing entered into a breeding ground and turf of one of the worst species to meet alone in the night.
This trio of voices was the wendigo that found you, it was your fault for getting closer and asking for directions. Young Wendigos, with less self-control than Nezuko when you meet for the first time and looking like skull-faced semi-starved abominations just jumped at you with the goal of consuming you whole.
They… are very bad at that as your body was just too insanely tough to the damage.
The first one was basically a monkey climbing up and down trying to find a weak point after his claw/nail broke with your eyelid. This one was renamed BLOODSPATTER! In honor to Bahamut. And because this little bastard was now hanging from your dick as its skull face was biting it, genuinely amusing because your boxers and pants were too thick to reach Kane jr.
The second that you called Bova jr in your mind was just keeping a grip around your left leg like a koala inverted and biting your ankle failing to even damage your clothes. His near-useless acts made you remember the unfair advantage that you had on Bova and how he wouldn't ever beat you.
The third one was close to surrendering at crushing your cranium and eating your brain for the sake of just licking your hair because of the traces of your shampoo. At the moment was your favorite so it was baptized as Kane2 because your hair was amazing and were an idiot who truly wasn't thinking with the head but the stomach was probably better.
…Walking around with basically meat armor in the form of three young Wendigo that failed at eating you was probably one of the weirdest things that you have done but didn't reach in the top 20.
"Where is the biggest accumulation of Wendigo?" You asked the trio.
"Giiii? GI? [There is suicidal Prey? This is what the old ones call 'lemming'?]"
"Raaaw… [I am almost feel bad…]"
"Meh. [Don't care, licking.]"
"I am the King of Nezuko, do you know her?" You tried again, you will not feel insulted because some brats call you lemming.
The risk of your actions is calculated!
"Ah, the food bringer!" …No translation needed?
[Those are the only words that they know.]
"Yeoowwl! [We should share this prey with the Princess!]"
"Woof! [She always brings best shares.]"
With directions obtained, from a trio that probably isn't going to survive the winter you just began to walk and added a few more wendigo that was around and lost to the pile of kids trying to eat you, it was basically useless effort from their part so you were just a medium of transport to those that just stop gnawing you.
"I am Kane Gremory, I come to meet the family of Nezuko." Once again you presented yourself
"Why did you come here to die?" Asked one of the kids, he made words so this one should be one of the elders.
"Nah, this is a visit." You weren't going to die, that was a fact. "I would even bring a few gifts if I had the chance."
For example the corpse of one of your enemies, you would like to share the body of Voltigern but Fluffy kind of made it stone… was that from Sky or Earth?
[Sky, Harmony]
Good to know.
"I would say basilisk or manticore meat are the tastier, but what is the best one?" You asked with a predatory grin that was matched and made a very rich and interesting discussion with the Wendigo.
You really wished that your soul could carry your inventory, a few meals that could be cooked and shared with them. Laughs and fun were shared as you exchanged stories and even recipes with the kids while the mature wendigo just tracked you, read every move that you made, and analyzed every weakness that could be capitalized in a hunt.
[You were a prey, there weren't doubts about it as fangs that wanted to consume you whole.]
Well, you were using their descendants as meat armor so you were an asshole too.
[A worthy prey that many wanted to consume and it didn't fill you with dread.]
What fear one would have around Famiglia?
"Is that right Nezuko?" You looked up from the bodies directly at your Rook who apparently was in one of the branches of this cold and twisted forest.
Your beautiful Rook, without her muzzle, was looking at you too, her expression of confusion twisted as she noticed your extra equipment.
The crash and crack in the ground formed in the forest as she jumped did shake off the wendigos out of your body as she moved fast as she inspected your body, her attention was in yours and only you could see the true movement of her eyes as she checked everything.
Your Rook appearance recently was tricky to find her true personality with a picture of tranquility, of serene beauty. That was what described a Yamato Nadeshiko and the favorite mom who was raising Nezuko. But your Rook, on the other hand, you would have a hard time finding a poet to even begin describing her utter and pure rage at the Wendigo that filled your hair with slime.
Kane2 thankfully didn't piss in your soul after he tried to run.
She crushed the head of Kane2 in a form that you could see a bit of blood coming from it as her glare was freezing and green Lightning was emerging from her body until she threw away the living husk of carbonized meat to the group
Was giving the finger to every member of her family with a pissed-out expression, a few Wendigo crawling in your body began to just get to your back and use you as a shield. Their fear was palpable and whimpers came out constantly from their mouths, she didn't only thrive but made an entire generation submit to her.
"FUCKING OLD FARTS AND BADLY DONE ABORTS GET AWAY BEFORE I RIP YOUR INTESTINES YOUR COLLECTIVE ASSES…!" You will blame Beowulf and her improved lungs for this. ""WHO THE $ *)# % IS )(&)(#% #! WHORE THAT DARES! EVEN AS I %^ (%* ( FEED YOU ALL HER %&!(#^*( (# INTESTINES AND KEEP THE BONES AS A STATUE FOR * ^% $)(% )!"
[You have a boner.]
You looked down, it was a very impressive erection.
[She is possessive.]
You would be offended if she wasn't, you belonged to her as her Sky much as she was your Lightning.
You smiled.
"And the brat doesn't have the balls for compromise. Like that man who tore open my heart, and took a BIG FAT DOODIE IN IT!"
[Is being literal and talking about a previous user]
What the fuck is the people that get Starving Taboo? No what is wrong with that Wendigo?
[Tries her hardest to fix Nezuko's language]
…Really?
[They are Wendigo, sanity isn't their specialty]
True… wait what is this about avoiding compromise!?
"Explain." You stepped and moved towards the wendigo.
"..." Silence wasn't a good answer.
You grabbed the elder from the throat.
"Avoiding. Compromise. Nezuko. Me. Now." You stepped, desiring the answer.
Your burning orange meets two holes of darkness, the heat was rising as you didn't hold back what you were, the Dread that gives the Calamity that ends the Life and the Sheer Survival of the Worldbreaker Hunter that will kill Ladon and…
The Everlasting Sky whose limit can't be found.
"I could see why she likes you so much, predator." The Wendigo gave its laugh and amusement not a single bit of fear in its body. "A creature like you is rarely being seen and tasted."
"Answer me." You will force an answer if necessary.
"You have been ignoring our traditions."
[Fear.]
That was the only thing that you could feel, through all your life there have been multiple beings that made you feel like this and know how insignificant you were from Ladon when you truly saw the extent of the world might to a more personal manner with Bradamante when you couldn't run no matter how outclassed and alone you were to the dread that Vortigern gave you that almost made you lost someone irreparable as his last acts.
You just turned around and saw another apex.
…No you didn't see an apex, but just a shadow of innumerable creatures. Beings that would kill you and devour you, hundreds of thousands of Ultimates and Satans, maybe even gods and Pillars were in that mass of corpses that shaped into just a single identity.
You could see
A pile of bones and death that made the path of this being.
But... you learned something else about this monster.
The loneliest being that you have met.
Some have parents.
Some have siblings.
And others have friends.
But this being has someone? After so much slaughter this tyrant could truly feel anything
You could see the wendigo? How does anyone accept this presence? This feeling was so overwhelming and your instincts were just short-circuiting in an error loop as running wasn't possible while fighting was just madness.
[Famiglia... it… she… he… made a family]
Ah, you were being silly too and too small-minded to forget the most obvious fact that precedes every other aspect of this forefather of the wendigo as a species.
The Blood King was Nezuko's dear gramps.
"I am Kane Gremory a pleasure to meet you Grandfather in Law." You grinned and got closer for a moment.
A moment that you just didn't feel despair was in turn something that stopped you as your body couldn't move as you wanted, like pieces were just missing. A few nerves, a pathway of your flames, a single vein or piece of bone… it was just missing.
[You were being devoured]
Emptiness invaded every cell of your body as you saw your corpse being eaten, it wasn't an illusion or trick but this thing's presence made your soul just react in that way, piece by piece it was just disappearing into a void as you remembered the lessons of why Starving Taboo was feared.
You were in front of a creature that could be considered the expression of the concepts of Depredation and Law of Jungle.
It wasn't a soul like most of the creatures that fueled the Sacred Gears but the whole creature that could turn every user into part of its kin.
…Well fuck. You pretty much need to be a regenerator of the highest caliber to not die like a bitch.
You began to burn the devoured parts, if anything this feeling and sensations weren't going to change much but it would give you more time to talk
"For such young prey being so talkative have your survival instincts so much like my grandchild as told me about?" He commented, there wasn't aggression on this being just his nature made you a feast and his skull moved towards a nodding Nezuko.
The question made you look back to Nezuko with betrayal, what did she tell him and the rest of her family to think of you like this? She just looked away trying to act innocent, unbothered by what was happening.
"Prey? I am the King of Nezuko." Your smile was a bit brittle and your transparent flames burned hotter but still acted cordially. "Are you the gramps, that she talks about?"
The attention when undivided back to you.
A whole arm disappeared, it was instantaneous and you didn't feel pain in the process as it wasn't there anymore since a while ago, but in the belly of this being.
You never noticed it.
"I am her King." Wrongly corrected the Apex Predator. "You sure have very tasty guts to say those words in my presence."
"She is mine." You were so damn to lose your manners, nobody will take her from you and those that dare put a claim. "You all raised her but she is my woman." …Oh, shit you really lost a lot of blood, spiritual blood?, if you ended saying things like this.
You almost covered your face with the hand that you still had, the only worse thing to say would declare that her virginity belonged to you and even if everything said was true.
At your words, Nezuko was just red her mouth opened
The Wendigo looked at each other unsure of what to say as the Blood King was trembling, his body language was unreadable but still, you could understand, there wasn't a way that you could perceive that particular emotion that almost every day saw in the face of so many different people and being after both of you meet and talked, that connected with you in a way that always repeated.
Amusement and feeling the desire to just smile and laugh.
The Blood King began to laugh as the skull out of fake face clapped in a rhyming.
"Ballsy! That is how should be." He laughed in your face, your nose touched bone before it was something that disappeared too. "But then why haven't you consumed my youngest flesh?"
Everything clicked then, her actions and subtle little things… you were the 'waifu' and Nezuko was the one courting you instead of what you believed about warping her around your finger it was a sly wendigo claiming you as her mate/husband even while you didn't think that those concepts were known to your Rook.
You understood that in Wendigo Land, Nezuko was the one proposing to you while you were pussing out like a complete bitch from their perspective.
"If that so?" Your mothers didn't raise a coward, you didn't fear physical pain or suffering and accepted it more than anyone.
You directed your gaze to Nezuko.
You lift your sole arm and opened your mouth, a whole file of sharp fangs and tooth's replaced the human teeth as purification returned them to their normal shape. Then bite off and chomped through the skin, muscle, and bone as the repulsive coppery taste of your blood invades your tongue you keep it in your mouth as you moved directly to your dear.
"K-Kane." Sorry, Nezuko but you are just going to give even more motivation acting like that.
You kissed her, it was a bloody and twisted act as you forced her to open her mouth and push the chunk that you ripped out from yourself into her mouth. It was insane, it was stupid and it was a suicidal act of making her taste you, you knew that she could end up getting into a frenzy and eating you whole one day and from now onwards you were going to be devoured ever slowly, with one bite at a time, it'll be over after she chews away at you ever so enjoying the act, bit by bit at one point, all of your flesh will be torn off and only your bones will remain.
For starters, this relationship was going to be bizarre and twisted like this, after establishing a dynamic like this where your body is no longer able to be forbidden to her you were going to keep feeding her like this.
But it didn't change that was an act of love.
From the moment that you two separated you just smiled at her, she was beautiful not matter if she was stained in blood or viscera, she was so cute blushing like that with her white fangs showing themselves in her.
Your sole hand closed her mouth with a finger, her blushing bride like visage was intoxicating, a image that only you managed to get now.
"Predator? Prey? When had we followed the stereotype? This was just a relationship of a King and one of his most trustworthy member of his guard." You told the present, there wasn't any sort of patience in your being. "If I am going to be eaten then is just another duty to carry on."
You choose her, and everything that came from her good and bad is going to make you the happiest man.
"And only Nezuko has the right to eat me at the moment." You declared to the fellow King, it was decreed of the Calamity that you became.
The world inside of Nezuko began to change, darkness spread and the sound of Lightning crashing into the earth sounded so hard that your ears were shaking, rain began to pour in a shade of crimson as curses spread in the land, a world so sinful that nobody would want to enter, it was a world that dead and predation.
She has grown up a lot.
A flower that was blooming and looking even more beautiful in slaughter and strife, this is the place that she had thrived in and made a family with.
"AahahahaAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!" A laughter loud, powerful, bone-chilling, twisted… so many words could be used to describe it.
Your arm was back, the piece of your flesh was back and connected just like many other parts.
"This young child really has such bad taste!" The King of the Wendigo declared and not a single one of the tribe refuted those words.
"Is absolutely repulsive."
"Truly bad, the smell of sulfur hurts my nose."
"Sappy like those dryads."
"Poor Nezuko having her tongue ruined like this."
"Don't have the right of eating you?" The Blood King smile was mocking and filled with disdain as the bones just moved in ways that insulted life. "You aren't worthy of being eaten by me or the Tribe."
[He took a liking of you and will pay attention now.]
"My Child, you are royalty now." The mouth of the skeleton that was his home, how it materialized a cave made from a skull? "Make yourself worthy of being followed and become a Queen." Those and more exchanges were ignored as you began to notice a new flow of information.
You did end up making a lot of assumptions.
[The true King wasn't around.]
He opened his own mouth and made the avatar enter inside, you never saw his true self but a piece of his body, a nail…
[Too strong]
The things were becoming dark, your mind was shutting down, and there was just too much to resist...
W..hy? You sho...uld...
Ah.
Rage gave you a last burst of conscience as you figured it.
That fucker gave your arm back but consumed a lot of blood, nutrients, and energy, well-done grampa wendigo there isn't doubt that the Ancestral King was the second scariest in law that you had.
I will make Nezuko kick your sorry ass one of…
…
…
Nezuko Kamado.
Grampa was overprotective, her Kane isn't a Wendigo he couldn't truly understand most of our customs just like she believes that many of his are just silly but lovable. This talking was troublesome and not worth the effort of communicating as many devils weren't turning into tasty meals like she expected but that shows how much Kane's insight was worth in their pack as he added best possible mates for himself and strengthened their tribe.
She still dislikes Little Shit/Maria but she admits that she was a good choice of Kane even when Nezuko would have preferred to consume her whole and show her warm how better she would put those skills at use.
She could wait, if Little Shit/Maria slips then could convince her King to allow her to eat her like she had to eat a few of the tribe and force other few into her body to teach them a lesson about ignoring Gramps' orders, their screams and howls were a little annoying but a few weeks before she returned them to the group would be enough to make the lesson clear.
Kane was hers.
But she couldn't blame the younglings.
So sweet and warm was his blood, so deep and crunchy were his bones filled with so much flavor, and his flesh was just something that she never could compare in terms of excitement and the nutritional value he was the best seven times it changes the flavor from her mouth to stomach it was so delicious.
The tastiest thing was the sheer love that he transmitted when he fed her!
There is no way she could eat her mate, but Kane was silly and loving as much as he made her feel warm and happy all the time. He would try to feed her again, she just knew that it will become one of the manners that he will show how much he loves her and she needed to make sure that he was safe even from himself but she was sure of something important.
Their babies will be strong and cute too!
Will they have his hair and her eyes? Will have his tail or will take after gramps spikes? She was very curious but wasn't the time to think about that.
She had been looking Jack/Beta's strains being very clear to see that she shouldn't mate yet, Bunny/Zest likes it and Big Shit/Shelia always come back with her internals filled, did it feel that good? Hmmm, nope. Not interested now, probably later.
She should just focus on keeping her mate safe, then she can work on making sure that nobody in the tribe has bright ideas about touching her family, her sisters, and her mate. They are out of limits.
Will papa bear be proud when she shows him what she can do now too?
Nezuko thinks that she probably can bite off a bit of his arm now.
Would that make her a scarlet woman for eating the meat that isn't of her mater?
She needs to ask questions to her and her mate's mothers.
Maybe wear those clothes that he likes.
You aren't breathing anymore, were incomplete, this body broken and keeps bleeding heat into the void, so many openings, so many lacerations, and so much pain courses through your body or was the soul?
But you are alive.
There wasn't a need for reflections in this darkness to see the true state of your existence.
Even what was left from your soul was still capable of moving, you didn't bleed more just burned and charred as flesh and still fused, the fire was still burning.
The space where you are can be dark and sinister, but you liked it.
So many stars.
But you were sure that all of them were just eyes and teeth, thousands upon millions no manner the absurdity that is how you needed to describe it twisting values as innumerable of shapes and forms were around.
They are, not many realize that.
Not many like the truths needed to realize that they are tiny and insignificant. Is this just a hallway one that just extends infinitely? Made by your flesh or equivalents as you assimilate others? This type of experience is rather new for me.
For a fly, there is a rare insight in your perception.
Ah, you forgot for a second something important.
And what it? You caught my attention.
My name is Kane, a pleasure.
Your name? That is the only thing that you forgot?
My mothers taught me that manners are primordial; do you have a name?
Oh would you like to know? What is what passed in your mind to ask?
They are important, as a record of your identity and how you were remembered.
…That it is?
We can't become friends if we don't know each other names.
Friends… yOu GrEaTesT Wish?
No, but that doesn't stop me from wanting something that I can get easily I am Greedy like that.
I never saw someone that asked that.
Is that so? That is how I want to live. Everyone needs a friend or two in this life.
Live and Death, they are the same you know?
That is retarded, or different logic. Do you know why I had clothes while being a soul?
The interest is turning into attention, normally I would just take over you now but there is something entertaining about you.
What stop me from taking over You? The Sky is Everlasting and accepts it all. Do you want to risk becoming me instead?
AHBAJBGWK MLUAMWLFIUFUSAMPFAW6RWAP897F`,XC0'
I don't understand that so just in case, your mother.
You are interesting. Bravery, hopeless, greediness, or just nonchantal about this. Is just too interesting to see you react.
Then do you want to hear a few tales? I don't know how much time I will be here and I am getting bored.
And if you escape before it ends?
It means that I will have new ones to tell and complete the next time if we don't have enough time. Also is a little distracting to figure out all the different details of the bodies and forms that you have assimilated.
Do you expect that the promise of more will make me wait?
There is always more while we are alive, being satisfied by just a single instant seems too little, if you tell me your name maybe will understand.
My name is something that little beings can't truly repeat but fleshlings call me Nyarlathotep.
Can I call you Nyar for short?
No, you may not.
So my new black friend let's be serious about a second, and I tell you how I came here. But first, about something more important do you know why I managed to keep my clothes? I was pretty sure that I was going to be naked inside that breeding ground…
…Mortal, who torments who now?
Resting on the thighs of Nezuko was good but after that short nap and by that you mean that you all ended up sleeping all night in the forest and returned in the morning to the manor.
…After stopping Nezuko's panic because her adopted grandfather did eat your tail and around a third of your soul.
Her gramps, the Blood King showed you that even still far away from his peak that there were so many years before you could even break one of his nails with how bullshit strong he was, and well it was him being nice as your Intuition explained to you. You had to review multiple times the meeting to see what could you do to make it better if there was a chance that you would talk with Nezuko's family again.
But you couldn't focus on that, and the whole morning your mind was occupied only with the particular ways that you were eating.
Your left arm was different from the right one and had been opened in the middle, he had that in his True Form openings that allowed him to gather more speed and expel flames in a way that could help avoid a few good hits, it was showing something… No, the true function was different it was heat consumption to increase the internal fire for something.
Too little data for your arms, the right one wasn't touched so the hidden extra bits weren't known and could only be theorized about.
The torso was ignored and was eaten from the inside instead of being external, going to your organs, the consumption was like he was eating much more like your organs weren't in the right size.
Legs for explosive power probably can be used for kickboxer style or something else, two to three claws instead of toes were bitten off in a way that you think was avoiding hard parts and spikes or too tough.
Scars, your true form had scars at the moment.
Even the reflection that you could see now because of how incomplete you were made it clear that you weren't less than before.
Your soul really was consumed a lot to the point that the tail wasn't there anymore… serves it right and it will not be missed. But you are sure that it will grow back, the rest of your soul will grow back with the time with the flow of the world helping you out and the purification effect burning this flaw.
There wasn't an easy way of training but trying to get your true form like this would be just a suicide of a fool as there were too many important parts that don't exist at the moment.
There was also something that you feel that you are forgetting about while you were sleeping.
Ah right, that black guy Nyar.
We were friends now and shit, truly this circle of friends that you had was weird as the Outer being and Bova… you preferred Nyar. At least Nyar had some important things to discuss about even when you were a step from consuming each other, it was just natural as you were greedy but genuinely didn't know Nyar's whole deal. You liked and understood a lot of beings but their game was something that you couldn't begin to truly see the top of that particular Iceberg.
To be fair, you meet him for less than four hours and that was more than enough.
Both of you didn't have time to waste, in assimilation, your eventual victory would come after an eternity and your tentacled/masked friend would be incapacitated to do his duties.
You were a massive annoyance when you wanted, with Pandora being proof of that.
…You haven't truly figured a way out to piece her, your Queen piece was possible to use and your two Mutated Pawns but that leaves you with a bad taste in the mouth to use multiple pieces it made you think that you weren't working hard enough to reach your goal.
The issue of using your Queen piece was… it doesn't matter, you had to live in the present.
[Maybe you should bring her to meet Penthesilea?]
That is a good idea, you should do something special to mess with Pandora first maybe just search for a tiger then break the window out of her room while riding it and kidnap her to confuse and mess with her? Isn't like he could just say for example…
"Pandora do you want to go on a date?" It just feels a little boring if he didn't make something special.
"Sure." Pandora answered putting a rice cake in her mouth.
And your plans were ruined.
"You had been looking far away like a complete retard for a few hours." Sassy Pandora was good, her eyes were now far more lively than before with genuine mirth. "What are you seeing pervert?" She frowned and cached you looking.
"You became even more beautiful." Critical hit! Pandora is flustered and is confused too!
"W-well I didn't dress myself carefully for… You heard nothing!" Pandora is so confused that she hit herself!
You trapped her in a hug and Pandora 'tried' to her away but her effort was just basically a token to keep appearances.
"You are so utterly precious." You just whispered to her and enjoyed her shudder, the effect that you had on her.
You were just too corrupt and enjoyed riling her up, you adored her expressions the farther from her emotionless self the better, she deserved to be happier.
But considering that she is Greek there wasn't a doubt that there will be lewd stuff involved, you made your research about the culture and… that Diana wasn't an exception, women born and raised in Greece were far more forward and perverted than most of the supernatural if they didn't follow the feminazi Goddess, seriously living forever hating the other gender because they have a dick? Is an absolute waste.
And well because you needed to find Achilles, 85% of all your spy networks in Greece were fucked by their women and the other 15% were fucked by their men. A waste of resources, you didn't send minions to get laid and just send you reports about their sex life.
But pulling them out would be a dick move.
"-gging me!" Pandora head-butted you and it caused more pain to her than to you.
Also, K.O herself in the process.
Oh right, distracted doing a monologue about Greek lewdness.
With a flex of your Purification flames, you made sure that Pandora didn't get brain damage while you visit Diana. She has a teleport circle connected back to her house in Themyscira and naturally, she let you use it without asking questions.
She didn't even ask about the passed-out Pandora.
Riser managed to teach her well the rules of the Famiglia or the charismas operation and finally managed to break her and accept the madness that was Kane!
And just like that, you were back in pussyland with Pandora on your shoulder like a sack of potatoes.
"By the Olympus he is alive!" Someone shouted and then you were surrounded by amazons.
Apparently, besides Penthesilea and Diana the rest of the amazons believed that you were dead and Riser was just lying his ass off because Diana owned his dick.
You feel that it was very fair that they believed that, Penthesilea gave you the toughest fight of your entire life, she wasn't the strongest or scariest one that you had not after Vortigern and Bradamante but she was the best of your life as she made you push and push until you couldn't stop of moving and then break your limits to challenge her further until…
"Male, you are drooling." One of the amazons deadpanned.
"Thinking about my last visit, is your Queen present we could go a few rounds in the arena?" You began to ask carefully if a full battle maybe would be too much considering that you came to show Pandora a bit of her home and…
Why everyone is looking at you with dread?
[They are dreading that you will reproduce with their Queen and make someone worse than the both of you.]
…Oh.
That is a bit…
…Maybe you?
[Pandora first, sexy chocolate legs that could crush your head later.]
Right, thank you Intuition mine. Head in the game Kane, you could maybe try to make time for Penthesilea later… By Satan were you that fighting horny or just regular horny?
[You are lucky that there isn't booze around it mixes well with beautiful women and violence]
True, true, your biggest weaknesses.
You still had to admit that besides Muspelheim this place was one of your favorites out of the underworld, there wasn't a better place than the one sky where you were born. But there were just too many things that made you enjoy yourself like watching girls in togas beating the shit out of each other or the hall of food where a lot of different dishes of Greece were made.
After electrocuting the water and killing any goose around using one of Ares's weapons.
They need to make sure that Poseidon or Zeus weren't trying anything, your guide told you that it was something that genuinely worked and there was a collection of Olympian body parts on nailed on the walls and tables.
With luck Pandora and you aren't going to be eating on one with that was nailed with a penis or testicle of one of those two who apparently didn't know how to surrender.
But like always you took the correct choice as the food was enough to awaken Pandora, who got from drowsy to fully awaken once she saw all the women in toga around them, to the point that she crossed her arms.
"Of course a pervert like you would choose this type of establishment." Her cute huff showed you that she was jealous.
You just snorted and smiled at her.
"Don't worry we are only here for food and greet someone to advise me of some stuff." Your attention was solely directed at her, and only her at the moment. "You should appreciate that I decided to get Greek food."
The little roar of the beast that was her stomach did tell you that she appreciated it or at least her body did… maybe you could use that and make a private dinner?
"Is that a hand?" Was she worried about minor stuff? At this point, she should be used to watching Nezuko eating.
Miyu doesn't even react after the first month!
"Amazons don't like Zeus and Poseidon in their lands to the point that through the refining of their wards for millennia ended by leaving them powerless if not for some tricks." You answered with the explanation of the guide.
[The Benefactor Deity Ares apparently could do defensive warfare like his sibling, and refined it to prevent his father and uncle's habits.]
Huh, an Olympia with semi-respectable traits.
You really didn't believe that it was possible from the Jackass of the Supernatural world.
"…Amazons?" Oh boy, Pandora dropped her fork in shock.
"Welcome to Themyscira!" You opened your arms and a few amazons shouted 'Glory to Ares!'.
Pandora fainted again.
You had to admit that is becoming an evil pleasure of yours destroying every piece of her past and making her lose her mind like this.
But you didn't have time to allow her to that release, so you began to burn that with Purification.
[It's like a denial play for you two.]
"Why, just why don't you allow me the sweet release of unconsciousness?" With her head still on the table, Pandora whimpered.
"Don't be that fatalist I still have a few months and I planning to make use of them as the best that I can."
"For what?" Pandora snarked and stole a piece of your meal to glare at you as she ate to establish dominance.
[She forgot that you liked spicy food.]
Her attempt to look like a tough bitch was adorable, especially because she was sweating and red-faced for eating your chili. You moved a jar of milk from your side of the table to hers and watched as her resistance broke and drank gulfs of milk like a sailor drinks to stop the burn inside her mouth.
You Intuition was bullshit and you were prepared.
"To make you fall in love with me."
Oh, a Rainbow!
You were going to assist her like a good gentleman but you stopped… No! Your whole body was frozen in place by the image that captivated your mind and made every single aspect of your Intuition freeze as it helped you to burn the image in your memories.
A trail of white liquid coming out of her mouth, tears coming from her eyes, her face blushing from lack of air in lungs and her previous mistakes, that labored breath, and the messiness of her hair… Your eyes were laser-focused as drops of milk fell in her dress.
[…How the hell the humans didn't taped that!]
…
…
…
"Kane!" A shout took you out of the 'meditation' session.
[You were a step from using your right hand on Kane jr]
Very 'deep meditation.
"I am paying attention!" You also shouted, and weren't lying you were paying on every angle of Pandora.
Who was pointing behind you, the oldest trick of the book used to…
[There are people behind you.]
That you need to check because you absolutely trusted her.
Oh, it was Penthesilea accompanied by a boy that looked like a girl.
"Good afternoon, do you want to eat with us?" You invited them to come and enjoy a meal. "It was about a year since we met each other Penthesilia?"
"Thou send differently, do devils age differently?" Truly an important question.
"A few curses to spend my lifespan made my body be at this age." That was your best use for about a half-decade to stop being short. "I would admit that being biologically fifteen years old has advantages in terms of height compared to being eleven this year."
Your fourteen years old body was shorter by about 25cm at a minimum compared to fifteen years… it was like a predisposition towards shotaness. You were barely in the line of tall people and before that, you barely changed anything without matter how much the muscles grew and increased your physical might there weren't any doubts that physically you were a Shotacon bait.
"Curses have been one of the rarest types of magic to use, are thou planning to use them on our next match?" The question of the amazon Queen triggered something inside you.
Your smile grew. A starved Hunter was admiring a great prey as your instincts were in action.
"Yes." Desire and greed were clear in your tone. "Maybe I will need to curse myself to allow you to stand a chance." You teased with a show of your teeth.
"Is that a challenge?" The question from the Queen made you stop, a year ago her spear would be in your throat but now she was only lifting an eyebrow.
You paused to truly look at her from up to down, pausing in a few parts of the anatomy like her hands lacking callouses but firmer grip, the partial cold, and aloof expression that she doesn't conceal behind a helmet anymore, and eyes that showed a far different mindset but were simultaneously far more lethal dangerous instead of a storm of anger and wrath was more like a cold blizzard that saps the will and pierces with cold sharps of ice.
Beyond an object Lust you admired the strength, the dedication, the power, and sheer skill that her whole body exuded like a second set of clothes, only a blind man would deny that she was much more than just a beautiful woman.
Penthesilea was a warrior, a general, and a Queen.
"You have improved too while we searching for our mutual enemy." It was a silly idea that you could have completely outclassed her but that only makes her more amazing by keeping with you. "Truly a different image that couldn't be described without spending hours detailing you from elegance to might, but isn't only that you pose a new challenge in ways that I can't wait to test."
"Only if you are prepared." Her beautiful eyes shined with primal violence. "I have a few surprises to show you." She warned with a tone that made your spine shiver.
It was excitement born of alertness and survival instincts a battle like no other could come.
"Oh? Do tell, I am always up for a good for entertain you for a few hours." Your flames ignited beneath your skin and your eyes turned orange.
Bloodlust began to feed your flames forcing the Transparency inside your soul, the burning Greed of your soul feeds into the Purification aspect it didn't matter it was just a single percent or minimal recovery, you wanted a better moment, a better instant as the song of the battlefield expresses itself through…
"A-are they flirting?" The pink blob in the corner of your vision said.
"It doesn't surprise me from this manwhore." Pandora just looked defeated as she answered.
…They killed the mood.
You deflated and looked at the duo of pink and blonde with an unamused expression and then at Penthesilea who had felt something similar.
Yeah, you two can't fight anymore.
"It was good to see you Penthesilea, who is this one?" You left a tired sigh at the loss and just wanted to change the theme. "The lover of some amazon or isn't official yet? Is rare to see another man on the island." You looked at the pink one, there was power there.
But didn't look like 100% warrior, like a halfway filled cup or less but filling? Ugh, it was complicated that soul, then again you were here for Pandora, and shouldn't be your problem.
"You think that I am a man!" The pink guy shouted and… hugged you? You looked confused at Penthesilea who looked happy(?) and Pandora looked like 'get out with it'.
Pats in the back then, no more. The possible frail mental state or not as your preferences weren't going to do full yourself in the close distance to a trap.
"This is my sis-brother."
[Hippolyta-Odion was one of the reincarnations of opposed gender to the version original.]
Got it, man outside and woman inside… Did you?
[No]
Oh thank you, Satan you don't want to break the heart of someone when you weren't interested, and even if you were it would be a complete waste of time when your goal is repopulating the numbers of your Pillar to stabilize it for the next century or so.
Still, you still have a bit of sympathy for this guy, being confused constantly as a girl must have caused a lot of stress if this was what he lived with.
"You know what always encourages me after a bad day?" A good head pat for the adopted pinkhaired child, you will end adopted this guy and name him as Kane jr… jr.
[The misfortune of this poor poor guy.]
The red-eyed guy looked up and then was filled with dread as he looked back to his sister who shared a similar expression to you.
"Training." If you could beat shortness then you can beat girliness or make him so strong that he can flex out existence those that mess with him.
And you included Pandora in this training montage when she tried to run doing some good exercise that will be good for her and leave her sweaty with her dress soaking and… you may have a different set of priorities.
Pandora was very dangerous in how easy she can raise your libido.
"You will take this shield and we are going to…" You barely managed to say those words before Pandora dropped to her knees.
"How could you expect a child like me to hold a such massive weapon with my young and frail body?" At those words and crocodile tears, you had just a single idea about it that your Intuition followed.
[She is going to repeat that when she meets Kane jr.]
Indeed.
"Stop pretending to be so weak Pandora, you have to raise the bar a bit." You already confirmed that her frail limbs weren't to the level of being incapable of doing this. "While we are alive we can do anything with effort and persistence, if you surrender so easily things can't change."
"Che, it didn't work." She tsked at a side.
You forced Pandora to train and stop being so smol with Hippolyta reincarnation, both needed some muscle and Penthesilea helped on motivating them in ways that helped more her little/big brother/sister as she took his diary and began to read a few snips of them when you noticed that he was slowing down or resisted their method.
Until began to be hit by the high of training her/his muscles, it was genuinely paying attention as your Intuition keep exchanging man and woman pronouns.
Pandora on other hand… didn't want you to say her name or tease her and just began to throw random shit at you or hit you to give you a contusion to silence you in a manner of speaking with a few war cries of 'Shut up!', 'Damn you stay still!', 'When I am at the top I will choke the life out of you!', etc. She doesn't even realize that if she hits you it would basically do nothing and probably hurt herself even more from the vibrations of metal hitting another alongside the bounce effect.
If your math is correct, you are going to have to use a Rook piece at this rate of your growth and seduction attempts, and so it was better if Pandora develops a mentality capable of handling those attributes as Rooks attributes could be used on her body as the Rooks are a rather versatile piece depending on creativity.
Magic could be handled by the flames that she gets and the pythos is just a maybe, you pretty much were betting on slowly adding the different sources of willpower and igniting the fire inside her to allow her to prosper.
[...For the last time Motherhood isn't the ONLY answer!]
And it was fun to have her around like another Fi-chan to tease all the time.
The sun ended lowering and you were preparing to return home, you took a deep breath as the beat that the world gives was making a song, the song of war and strife a declaration of a presence that became important and filled your mind with a clear image.
[A Father looking lovely at their children.
Love conquered War, a true sort beyond Lust and Desire.
The Bond that was broken but is trying to repair.]
You looked at the flow and read it towards the direction of where that being was, if anything this was an invitation and you knew better than ignore it when your curiosity was tingling so much.
What did want a God of War? Of the warriors? Of the conflict?
Penthesilea didn't talk much about her divine father, but you never asked about Ares when you send her letters about your search… you were a shitty friend.
Well, at least you will meet an interesting character.
But nothing prepared for what Pandora and you encountered when they visited the temple, more like you had to force Pandora to come alongside you because she hated the Greek Gods so much, but if you had to do something like an epic quest then she comes with you as she needs to get out of her shell.
The hall and entry were empty.
The other few rooms around too.
So you just followed your Intuition to find Ares as the fucker pretty much called you and wasn't even capable of receiving you.
And ignoring the warnings, you found him.
Ares was sitting on a throne.
A toiled throne.
With his pants down.
…You misread the situation completely, it wasn't a call of Ares but just him shitting and unleashing his godly powers because of constipation. You cursed when the smell hit you because your damn enhanced senses, you naturally turned back with Pandora and closed the door when you exited the bathroom.
That shit was basically a war crime as expected
After five minutes the God of War, dressed fully in his armor came out.
"I am Ares, the God of War!" The God declared, that he didn't pose or express anything of his godly might but you still could help but feel such wonder at his present actions.
You were impressed by the sheer willpower of Ares, it was an impressive strength of mind to act like nothing has happened after they caught it shitting.
"But now I am just Ares retired Olympian who doesn't want others to know that I am alive." You caught the indirect petition.
[You don't say anything and he will not say anything.]
"A pleasure to invite you to my temple." The easygoing smile of this God was clear to everyone and even extended one of his hands. "You may shake hands with mine as Penthesilea's favored you two."
"I don't want to touch your hands right now." Pandora looked at the Olympian with disgust.
A little trail of divine blood came from his lips as the easygoing smile turned brittle.
He returned to the bathroom a few minutes later.
[Fight on Ares!]
The shenanigans didn't last for much time and thankfully Ares wasn't offended by anything, he didn't act like that video of Godling Jackass that was still in multiple records for thousands of years or try to show off how big was his dick around by acting like an asshole.
It was a very normal meeting, with a few conversations and even sharing a few of the food offerings while playing as a host.
"My Aunt was very serious on hospitality, I cached a few things off her before… I decided to just grow up." Ares confessed when asked, it was interesting to see this side of a Deity.
Pleasantries ended soon after as Ares finally turned serious and unleashed his Godly aura, you knew that it wasn't anything else than a decree from a God about what was going to follow. It was something that multiple times
"I know that this is breaking my oaths as a host but there are words that need to be said." His words were soft but the weight that they carried didn't let you interrupt.
"You didn't deserve all the suffering that was given to you." The eyes of Ares were on Pandora and only on her.
Of fucking course that he noticed Pandora, Kane you had to bring her here to his turf because you wanted to spend a good time in Pussyland!
"I wanted to say that, the Olympus doesn't deserve forgiveness." His words carry sorrow and old regrets like it was a tough thing to say and for a God, it was probably akin to said sorry to a bug that they stepped on. "My father, uncles, and hell almost everyone not named Hestia still are trashy assholes with Hephaestus being one of the smartest God to just abandon the mess that it was and still is."
Your eyes widened when the god lowered himself.
"I don't deserve mercy Pandora." He declared, his face still on the floor. "I don't deserve forgiveness so accept this show of arrogance and you can hate it if these actions offends you but I still have to say these words."
"I am sorry."
"Kane punch him in the nuts." At the genuine and sincere apology, Pandora decided to just kick a man when he was down.
"No." You denied it immediately.
"Why?" The slowly hollowing of her eyes of Pandora makes you want to hug her and spoil her rotten, but you still refuse to do that act.
Ares probably took it as a hint of you trying to put water under the bridge.
"I would fracture my hand and touch the balls of another man for nothing." The smile filled with gratitude broke and the God froze like stone. "If you want to make him suffer make him watch Boku no Pico or something but he is a Greek God."
Said God just cough up a little blood, your words cut deeper than any other weapon in a thousand years.
"Just what did they do to make me deserve this?" The God barely recovered and almost fell to his knees.
"What they didn't? Most of the things that I read about your pantheon is Zeus putting his dick in a hole." Your genuine question made Ares look like he received a few blows. "Hell Ares, you are one of the worst as you kissed and licked the humanoid testicle that they call Goddess of love."
You could see the metaphorical words that you delivered without a hint of mercy.
"Burn him harder! Make him suffer! Hahahahaha!" Pandora got crazy with the power as she understood a way to make God's pay for their sins.
"What in the Tartarus?" You have the same reaction as Ares.
Pandora looked at you with a serious face and you were going to say no to burning bridges.
"I will kiss you if you made him cry." She declared, and you looked at Ares with a face that declared war as there was something more important than getting the favor of a God in line.
A look that Ares caught and grimaced about, recognizing the folly that you were going to do for the sake of a woman, the typical Greek stuff of being a daft moron for high-quality pussy.
[You both are fucked]
"I can't hurt your body but I will defend myself, so I will give you a chance to desist from this folly mortal." Ares warned with his eyes narrowed, and you just smirked there wasn't anything that he could say that hurt you. "So be it, I will show you the might of the former Olympian God of War." The God of War's face became serious as he cleaned the blood off his shin.
Please, you had the power of history and a few years of education in Babyls, maintained your reputation clean, and were shameless about what you did and far from feeling any guilt about your actions.
"The first season of Magical Levi-tan is shit with a plot parodied of three different animes!"
You fell to your knees; those words were something that hit you harder than even the breath of Vortigern!
"Hmm, I have trained in the ways of Modern Warfare there is no chance for you to win in a Flame War." The short laugh of the Olympian haunted you as he declared a cruel verdict. "My powers and experience over multiple battlefields of forums and discussions are too great for you and can your weak points as not matter what you do or how strong you become a flaw will always follow you."
"You the mortal called Kane Gremory, is a complete simp for magical girls." His smirk pissed you off and you will not accept that lie on their part.
[It's the truth and you know it]
You ignored the blatant lies of your intuition and prepared yourself for battle, this was personal and today you will burn a God to the death.
…
…
…
Penthesilea found her divine father and Kane Gremory exchanging insults while Pandora was just laughing at the suffering of the two but no side stopped as old injuries were open. Both Devil and God were bleeding from their mouths and their eyes flowed with tears of blood as many things that were better left unsaid were exchanged with brutality and precision that her mind could visualize a war going. The cruelest and most pointless one that she has ever seen from her experience in her first life and this other, there was just not a single meaning or form of reason but only sheer waste as there will not be a winner anymore.
…It was a weird sensation, was this a new type of warfare? Her blessed blood from her divine father made clear that she could learn this with ease but couldn't help but feel confused by the goal of these acts.
"Did that blonde cause a flame war?" Her younger brother murmured with an expression of morbid curiosity.
"Flame War?" She didn't recognize the term.
"You really don't want to know." Whatever this was, Penthesilea knew that she should trust her sister on this.
The power to make her divine father bleed is something that she didn't dare to learn.
Finished Part One, God this is update is going to be long but then again these are months of condenzed plot. Zest's Libido is from pregnancy so Kane is experiencing his father's life. Poor Ares the rolls didn't favor him but managed to be the bigger man and didn't involve Pandora in the shit fest with Kane. Penny and Kane were cockblocked by Pandora and Odion of their round 2, Panpan is such a tsundere and owes Kane a kiss. If anyone ask, Kane was high as fuck and normally isn't this level of moronic (Blamant lies).
If there are errors, say it because I going to fix it.
These are your gainz. And going to edit the character sheet and SL later.
Trait Gained:
Reduced Earth: Apparently the world thinks that eyes are retarded and showing you how to truly walk around in a more efficient way through some fuckery around. Moving is just different for you, instead of ten steps now it's six to eight steps to reach where you wanted. Isn't about speed, distance just works differently now that you knew about these new paths. It's pretty good to scare the shit out of others when you moved at the same speed and let them eat dust. The Ultimate Fuck You all to all the tall people. Who needs to walk more than who now bitch!?
Clear Sky: Things that are easy for you to get in a moment or just understand in a way that just clicks with you, is possible to truly make others get it too. Is a matter of perspective and intent, the interpretation of others is something that you learned how to put in perspective and use to figure out ways to share with others what you saw and feel in many aspects of your life. It's Elemental so I won't have to explain complicated shit communication power.
