Chapter 73 – The Allmother’s Tale
<span style="font-weight:400">Simrly to the morning a few days earlier, a warm and tingly sensation in my lower body brings me out of the pleasant slumber. Not that the cause behind me waking up is any less enjoyable than the dreamy nap. I groan a little when met with a more aggressive action andzily start rubbing my eyes.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Ugh… We need to work on your morning surprises, Astrea… The girls won’t be happy if you keep—”
<span style="font-weight:400">The sight that greets me when I finally open my eyes makes me instantly freeze. Judging by the weight pressuring my chest down and how it’s distributed over its area, I’ve already guessed what to expect in front of my face, but instead of a petite bottom and a small slit adorned with a cute patch of silvery fur, I find a luscious ass of light violet colour with a pinkish pussy spread invitingly and leaking a constant stream of love nectar onto my neck.
<span style="font-weight:400">Only now I realize that the hot muscle working on my shaftcks the faint characteristics of Astrea’s very slightly coarse tongue and all the events from my encounter with a quite captivating beautye back to me, including the very ending of it.
<span style="font-weight:400">Whatever reason she has behind this wake-up call, either intentional or not, I don’t really care, but we can’t speak properly until the other party that is feasting on what''s assumingly my morning wood gets done. But, I will not waste the opportunityid down in front of me so perfectly either, and thus, I announce my presence by joining my lips with the ones salivating in front of my face.
<span style="font-weight:400">That action is met with an instant and certainly surprised reaction of a vibrating moan passing through my hard member. Thest time I was forced into a morning blowjob, I had no way to fight back, but this is different and I’m d for it.
<span style="font-weight:400">While the charmingdy eagerly works her tongue and lips all over my cock, I explore her yearning honeypot with my own muscle, stroking the entrance to this secret cave all around with my fingers at the same time.
<span style="font-weight:400">I must say, the taste is nothing like I have ever experienced up to this day. I was sure my ss and its abilities or Titles did have an effect on that to some extent, making it even more enjoyable for me to explore my girls’ bodies, but their nectar was never so sweet and delectable. I’m fairly certain it’s thanks to the current pussy belonging to a Subus. Is this how my seed turns out for them? If so, I can somehow understand why they are so eager to get a taste of it.
<span style="font-weight:400">Nevertheless, we don’t have the whole day to waste here. Erm… Actually… I have no idea how much time we do have to waste… I don’t even know how many hours have passed since I nodded off with the Subus girl in my arms… The others might be getting worried…
<span style="font-weight:400">Thus, let’s not dilly dally and finish this up to question the master of the house. Aiming exactly to do that, I set myself to fully enjoy the given service and stop holding anything back while filling the tip of my tongue with some condensed mana.
<span style="font-weight:400">Noticing the sudden spike in pleasure, the Subus moans loudly into my rod and jerks a little but redoubles her efforts afterwards too, getting my message clearly. We do not possess a connection, unfortunately, since I haven’t registered her as a Partner yet, so I can only try my best to read from her body to time our highs together. It doese as a bit of a challenge as I was getting used to relying on that cheat a little, but in the end, after some skilful teasing, I manage to seed.
<span style="font-weight:400">Totally forgetting that the sex demon lying on top of me is a huge squirter, I get sted straight into my face with a spray of a very fragrant liquid at the same time as her throat gets flooded with waves of creamy delicacy surging from the tip of my cock pushed far into its depths.
<span style="font-weight:400">I wipe down my face as the violet body in front of it keeps quivering from the pleasure and I watch how her delicious snatch spurts out a few more, fainter gushes of juices while cooling down. It’s kind of hot. And not just physically.
<span style="font-weight:400">After a short moment, one of her legs flies above my face and the Subus starts shifting around to match my position. And soon, I have a dazzling redhead lying on my side while seductively licking her lips as her scarlet eyes gaze into mine.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Thanks for the meal~?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“I’m afraid this diner has not been opened yet when you forced yourpletely unauthorized order onto the unsuspecting cook.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Oh, no~? Am I going to be punished~?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“It’s thew. Do not resist.”
<span style="font-weight:400">She giggles and observes me carefully. I move my hand to her body and roam my palm over her beautiful, light violet skin, getting a gentle squeeze of these firm andscivious mountains and then head down. She doesn’t move even an inch,plying with my order.
<span style="font-weight:400">Before reaching her secret ce with my fingers, I trail to the side and grab her tender ass, pulling her whole body closer to mine and stealing her dainty lips. A little surprised at first, but she doesn’t resist and lets me have some fun with her tongue, leaving it all up to me, acting all submissive.
<span style="font-weight:400">I break the kiss after a short moment. “This should be enough to pay off the damage you have caused. For now.”
<span style="font-weight:400">We stare each other into the eyes with wide smiles and chuckle at the same time. Then, her face turns into a more neutral and analytical one.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Who are you?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“stair. You?”
<span style="font-weight:400">She smirks and rolls her eyes. “You know I wasn’t asking about that. I''m Ailish. How can you not only resist my charms but even overpower them? Why did you just leave me be after I was defeated, lying by my sidepletely open to any harm? I could have killed you the moment I opened my eyes. You didn’t even try to restrain me. I just… don’t understand. Weren’t you sent to get rid of me?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“That’s quite a lot of questions you have there,” I answer while moving a lock of her hair behind her ear to uncover some more of her elegant face. “Let’s start with the most important one. No, I’m not after your life. Well, at least not in the way you are thinking of.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“What? But yourpanions’ attacks were clearly filled with killing intent.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“I wouldn’t go as far as calling them mypanions. They are just temporary party members. Actually, I’m not even sure about that. I did kind of deceive them and use their party for my own goal which they weren’t aware of.”
<span style="font-weight:400">Ailish raises one of her brows at me. “Now that I think about it, I never felt any maliceing from you, even when you were <i><span style="font-weight:400">fighting</i><span style="font-weight:400"> me. I can’t believe I’ve missed that.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“It just shows how much you were enjoying yourself, isn’t that right?” I ask with a cheeky smile.
<span style="font-weight:400">She chuckles. “Certainly. Well then, stair, what’s that hidden goal of yours? Assuming that it’s rted to me, you should be able to fill me in, no?”
<span style="font-weight:400">I nod my head. “But of course. Before that though, I would like to ask some questions myself, if you don’t mind.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Go on.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Care to tell me what exactly is going on here? I’ve only listened to the vigers’ side of the story and it does sound kinda fishy to me.”
<span style="font-weight:400">She again shows some signs of surprise. “You are willing to listen to the arguments of a monster? As a Human?”
<span style="font-weight:400">It’s my turn to roll my eyes. “Oh, please. You are not even close to the most monstrous entity I’ve spoken with. Or fucked.”
<span style="font-weight:400">Myment makes her snort and chuckle. “Okay, okay. You do seem pretty weird. I’m curious about thatst part so promise me you’ll tell meter. I’ll try to keep this short. I woke up from my slumber a few months ago in this cave, which had been prepared by me. Hungry as hell after who knows how many centuries, I went out to search for food. I’m pretty sure you can guess my most preferred diet.”
<span style="font-weight:400">A small smirk shows on my face and I nod at her to continue.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Anyway, I found out that there is now a vige not that far from here and decided to check it out. One of the hunters was making his way through the forest so I approached him. He was quite hesitant at first, but it was nothing that couldn’t have been fixed with a few charms and we had some tasty fun together~? After that, I made sure to carry him close to the vige and returned home.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“I’m surprised you haven’t sucked all life out of him.”
<span style="font-weight:400">She waves her finger at me. “Now, now. That’s a very outdated mindset. I don’t kill people. In fact, many Subi don’t. Why waste precious food when you can enjoy it again and again? Show a little courtesy and it will find its way back to you by itself. Of course, idents do happen, but I can’t predict if someone’s heart will pop from the pleasure. That’s why we usually prefer young and healthy men.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“I see. What about threatening to suck me dry yeste—thest time?” I correct myself, still unsure how much time has passed.
<span style="font-weight:400">“I mean, I thought you came to kill me so it shouldn’t be a surprise I would answer with the same, right? It’s easy to keepmon people charmed, but I wouldn’t risk keeping an adventurering back that could gain resistance somehow and stab me in the back while I drill my pussy with their dick.”
<span style="font-weight:400">I nod. “Fair enough. And confirms some of my guesses. And then?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Then it was as I said. He came back to the same spot so I took him here. Then, the next time, someone else showed up, clearly looking for me, so I took them in too. And another and another and another. At some point, two at once came, which included the first person I encountered after waking up. Then, they even starteding to me in a trio. Everything was great. I had a full buffet to pick from.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“And then they suddenly showed up with pitchforks, right?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Ugh, exactly. But it was also partially my fault. Mom always said not to trust Humans and I got too lenient. So, I confronted them, still hoping to talk it out, but it ended in a fight. I didn’t want to risk it so I had to defend myself and a few people died. Seeing how easily I can squash them, they surrendered and I requested a man daily to make it official. I knew they’d try something elseter as Humans always do so I was ready to face some adventurers. But, it turns out that I wasn’t ready for you, hahaha.”
<span style="font-weight:400">I shake my head. “I can’t even rebuke that part about Humans. Thanks for clearing that up. I’m now assured that my hunch was correct.”
<span style="font-weight:400">She scoots closer to me, pressing her body against mine while grazing my chest with her fingers.
<span style="font-weight:400">“So, what’s this all about? Or do I have to <i><span style="font-weight:400">squeeze</i><span style="font-weight:400"> the answer out of you?”
<span style="font-weight:400">I chuckle and <i><span style="font-weight:400">squeeze</i><span style="font-weight:400"> her tender butt, moving my hand to her back to bring our faces together for a short kiss. “No need. You’ve already earned it. Basically, as weird as it might sound, I was tipped off about your existence by the Human King and allowed to confront you with an offer. My own one; he has nothing to do with it.”
<span style="font-weight:400">She furrows her brows. “You know the Human King? And he didn’t send you to get rid of me?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Now, things will get even weirder. He’s kind of my… good customer and a friend. I run a brothel in the capital of the biggest kingdom of Humanity. Technically speaking.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“A brothel? The King is your customer? What…?” She shows clear signs of confusion.
<span style="font-weight:400">I chuckle a little. “Okay, it’s like this. I opened that ce as a kind of safe haven for non-humans in the capital. I obviously can’t take in literally every single one of them, but I’m doing what I can. The people that decide to stay there can just live there, work as maids, barmaids, women forpany, bath helpers or as prostitutes. It’s up to them. And it’s more of an entertainment establishment than just a brothel. The end goal is to lessen the hate non-humans get, but it’s kind of a pipe dream still. Anyway, this brings us to my offer.”
<span style="font-weight:400">Ailish nods curiously, still quite shocked by the revtion.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Come with me and you’ll be able to get as much dick as you want without any repercussions and danger. Everything about this incident will be forgotten and the quest will be written off aspleted. No traces left behind. Our home has many rules to assure thefort of thedies, so you don’t have to worry too much and can just focus on enjoying yourself. As long as you leave the customers in a decent state that is. So, what do you think?”
<span style="font-weight:400">She blinks at me repeatedly for a moment, staring at my professional, inviting smile with her mouth opening a few times to voice out her thoughts, but unable to do so yet.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Take your time. No need to answer immediately. And I’ll answer all your questions if you have any.”
<span style="font-weight:400">She calms herself down a bit and nods. “You are not joking, right? It’s not some smart plot to capture and enve me, right?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Well, I definitely wouldn’t mind <i><span style="font-weight:400">capturing</i><span style="font-weight:400"> you.” I smile at her more charmingly. “But that’s only if you are willing.”
<span style="font-weight:400">Her eyes widen a little. “Does that mean I would be able to fuck you again?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Hahaha. You can get much more than just some good pounding now and then. There are many benefits to bing not just my employee but also my Partner.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Partner?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“I guess it’s time to show you why I could overpower you so easily.”
<span style="font-weight:400">I wave my hand and summon my full status window. With another motion, I send it towards her while making it visible. She stops hugging me and drops back down onto the bed to focus her attention on the floating screen as I observe her face making a myriad of reactions.
<span style="font-weight:400">“What the hell is wrong with these numbers? They are higher than mine and you are only Tier 3!”
<span style="font-weight:400">“You might want to focus on the section above that part.”
<span style="font-weight:400">Her eyes jump up and instantly freeze on the spot, like her whole body. They finally move even further up after a good fifteen seconds and her head literally draws back from shock, most likely after noticing my race. Hearing her mention her slumber, I was assuming she would at least recognize it to some extent.
<span style="font-weight:400">She keeps looking between the two for a while longer and then swats the window away, moving her gaze onto me. Before I can say anything, Ailish jumps on top of me and straddles my waist with her front facing me. I chuckle a little, assuming that she got turned on by the revtion or something, but my smile slowly fades when I see her gentlyy her hands on my belly and lower her head.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Please, be our Allfather…”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Uhhhh…”
<span style="font-weight:400">Ipletely did not expect this turn of events. Whatever is actually happening. Looking at her serious and very expectant posture, pretty much begging me to agree, I get the feeling that it’s something really important.
<span style="font-weight:400">Helping myself to my elbows, I then sit up and end up in a lotus position with Ailish on myp. She still keeps her head lowered and does not raise her gaze.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Would you mind exining a little? And please, act casually.”
<span style="font-weight:400">She finally moves her eyes up and shows a faint smile. “Of course. I’m sorry for suddenly blurting out something you might not understand. I’m still a little shocked.”
<span style="font-weight:400">I brush her cheek with my palm. “It’s fine.”
<span style="font-weight:400">She makes a deep sigh. “So, there’s a legend, or more like a belief being regarded as every Subus’s lifelong mission. Our great Allmother, the very first Subus born from the rtionship of a Primordial and the Primeval Archdemon of Lust, is believed to still be alive and hidden away somewhere in this world while in deep slumber. She reached the end of her lifespan and sealed herself inside a powerful, life-preserving vault. It is said that you can attain semi-immortality by forming a pact with a Primordial, but by the time she learned about that, they were already long gone. Thus, it was left to her descendants to hopefully find one. As you can imagine, they searched for a long time, but none was found. Until now, I guess.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“That’s… quite the tale. Does that mean you can’te with me now and are obliged to ask for my help?”
<span style="font-weight:400">She shakes her head. “No, nothing like that. I would be happy toe with you regardless. Your offer is really great for me. It’s just, on behalf of all the Subi, I wanted to ask if you would be willing to at least meet her. If that story is even true. At this point in time, I’m not sure anyone even knows about the location of the vault or if it still exists. It’s just... if we ever stumble on some hints or something, could you promise me to investigate them whenever you would be able to? I would then feel like I’ve fulfilled that mission.”
<span style="font-weight:400">I rub my chin and think for a moment. It doesn’t sound like she is trying to force something very annoying onto me and even leaves the finalpletion of the task up to my decision. And well, I’m now kind of invested in this story already. I mean, it’s super interesting, isn’t it? I did not know about that part of the Subi culture.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Alright. I promise to see what I can do to help you. She might be of help to me too, actually. The first Subus must certainly be really powerful, right? I could use any powerful allies to face the Cmity.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“The Cmity?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Ah, right. You’ve slept for quite a bit. When did you doze off actually?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“During the war between Humans and the other races. I didn’t want to take part in it so I hid away.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Oh boy, we have a lot of catching up to do then. Anyway, I’ll fill you in on thatter. Including all the Hero stuff. Right now, what do you want to do?”
<span style="font-weight:400">She looks at me while pondering for a moment and then speaks up. “Would you mind forming a pact with me too?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Won’t that get in the way with me potentially doing it with the Allmother?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“I don’t think so. A Subus or Incubus can form only a single subservient pact in their life with a single person they choose, but the other party can receive as many pacts as their soul can withstand, which is usually no more than two. Or zero in Human terms. But, I’m sure yours is much stronger. I’ve heard stories of Incubi receiving pacts of many Subi and forming their own harems, which actually also shared and boosted their powers in turn. The reversed situations also happened.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Oh, so like my Partners via Love Contract.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Hm?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“It’s about the stats you’ve been wondering about earlier. I get a share of a girl’s stats after I form a contract with her and she willingly offers her body to me. Depending on the character of the feelings between us and their strength, the more of them I get, up to 50%. She also receives a simr bonus from me after adding up the stats I get from all my other Partners. So, if you became my Partner and had sex with me, you’d get at least ten or so more points, assuming the bond between us would base on just being favourable towards each other.”
<span style="font-weight:400">She blinks a few times. “That’s… quite simr, isn’t it?”
<span style="font-weight:400">I chuckle. “Yes, it does seem like it. But considering what is the name of my ss, I’m not that surprised it draws from literal Lust Demons.”
<span style="font-weight:400">Ailishughs a bit too and smiles widely, grazing my cheek with the tip of her heart-shaped tail. “Then, each one of us has a kind of a pact to offer, right? And it so happens that the <i><span style="font-weight:400">ceremony</i><span style="font-weight:400"> oveps too.”
<span style="font-weight:400">I catch her ck spade with my fingers and bring it in front of my mouth to ce a soft kiss on it, sending a faint shiver through her whole body. “Then, let me ask again. What do <i><span style="font-weight:400">you</i><span style="font-weight:400"> want to do?”
<span style="font-weight:400">She leans in to press her amazing breasts onto my chest and wraps her hands around my neck. I can feel her hot breath over my ear.
<span style="font-weight:400">“I want to ept your offer ande with you to taste many different men~? I want to show you my gratitude for your promise and offer myself to you through our racial pact, bing a soul-bound fuck toy at your every beck and call~? And… I want your hard, throbbing cock to shred my pussy into bits~!” she whispers into my ear with a tone dripping with lust as much as her lower lips do.
<span style="font-weight:400">I back away a little for our faces to meet in front of each other and smile at her while sending out a mental offer on bing my Partner. She quickly epts it and nces at me expectantly.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Time for round two, I guess.” I wink at her.
<span style="font-weight:400">She giggles and dives forward to seal my lips with a deep and passionate kiss while her thin ck tail coils around my shaft and starts pumping it. I move my hands to her sulent ass and sink my fingers in its heavenly texture, gently kneading it as she devours my mouth like a starved beast.
<span style="font-weight:400">After we finally run out of breath, she breaks the kiss with a heavy gasp and looks at me with a lustful gaze. Her red hair is now a mess and gives her appearance an even more erotic look. She pushes me back down onto the bed as I watch her impressive chest heave up and down from the rough breathing and starts rubbing her drenched slit over my cock squashed to my belly.
<span style="font-weight:400">She turns up her movements a notch or two and bites on her lower lip, falling forward to support herself with her hands on my chest after almost making herself cum from grinding against my shaft.
<span style="font-weight:400">Taking her a little bit off guard, I squeeze her ass harder and buckle up my hips with powerful thrust a few times, finishing what she did not have strength for and bringing her to climax as the head of my penis repeatedly assaults her clit along with the bumps created by her tail still coiled around my rod.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Nnnggghhhnnnn~?”
<span style="font-weight:400">She trembles, showers my cock with a gush of love juices and curls her fingers lying on top of my chest from ecstasy. Eight distinct lines appear on my skin during that motion. As expected, her nails are sturdy and sharp like daggers.
<span style="font-weight:400">She pants for a few seconds and giggles at me. “Let me show you a good time~?”
<span style="font-weight:400">Nodding at her, I move my hands off her ass and ce them behind my head, leaving it all up to her. Ailish leans forward first and seductively licks the shallow wounds she inflicted on my skin. They instantly stop bleeding and I stop noticing any stinging sensation from them. Looks like her saliva has some interesting properties.
<span style="font-weight:400">After dealing with these, she moves closer to my face and presents me with a flirtatious kiss, nibbling softly on my lips. With another giggle, more to herself than at me, she raises her hips and uses her tail to line my cock up with her leaking honeypot, very eager to wee it again with a tight and warm hug.
<span style="font-weight:400">She very slowly descends onto my rod and releases a sound moan when the tip slips in. Her tail moves to one of her breasts, starting to squeeze it in rhythm while she uses a hand to spread her pussy for my cock and the other one to y with the nipple of her tail-less mountain.
<span style="font-weight:400">Gasping sensually, she gets lower and lower, making sure to give me the best possible spectacle to watch, and an even better sensation to feel from moving her hips in a curricr motion, teasing my tip with the insides of her burning-hot pussy.
<span style="font-weight:400">Finally arriving at the very bottom, she smiles at me while grinding her hips around. Leaving her breasts solely to her tail, she raises her arms into the air in a seductive fashion and starts riding me with her wings spread fully to the sides in all of their glory.
<span style="font-weight:400">It’s then when I notice the crimson tattoo over her underbelly glowing slightly. This might be due to that pact thingy or something, I’m not entirely sure. But, she doesn’t miss the shift in my attention and starts tracing over it with her finger while biting on another in her mouth.
<span style="font-weight:400">She surely knows her craft, as expected from an ancient Arch Subus. It’s extremely sensual to watch. Everything she does assault my senses with unimaginable pleasure. And also… Oh?
<span style="font-weight:400">Ailish slows down a little and puts more focus into sliding up and down my cock, but there’s something else that changes. The tension and pressure inside her moist tunnel start switching in a regr rhythm, evoking even more pleasure than her slightly violent assault.
<span style="font-weight:400">She notices me grunt a little from that form of teasing and chuckles. “Feeling good? I bet your mind must be blown already. As a Subus, I have full control of my pussy and that includes all of the muscles and much more,” she speaks in a prideful manner while switching to moving her hips in circles and grinding my penis against her uneven walls as they coil around me and even apply sucking motions.
<span style="font-weight:400">I chuckle right back at her. “I’m afraid you are mistaken. It surely is amazing, but when ites to an omnidirectional internal massage, you can’t even hold a candle to Safi and Emi.”
<span style="font-weight:400">She raises her brows. “Oh? You know other Subi?”
<span style="font-weight:400">I move my arms from behind my head and ce my hands around her waist, pulling her down, closer to me.
<span style="font-weight:400">“No. They are my precious Queen Slimes.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Queen Sli—mmhhhnn~?”
<span style="font-weight:400">Taking advantage of her surprise, I sneak my tongue into her mouth and start moving my hips to return the received favour. It just doesn’t lie right with me to be on the receiving end for too long.
<span style="font-weight:400">Both of us are already close so I wrap my arms around Ailish’s waist and gift her inexhaustible lily with some energetic affection. She starts moaning into my mouth while our tongues dance together in a sloppy fashion.
<span style="font-weight:400">Her tattoo glows even brighter and starts blinking with its crimson hue. Considering how her pussy is starting to squeeze my cock in a less controlled fashion, it’s pretty clear that it''s rted to her getting really close, and perhaps the whole ceremony getting nearpletion.
<span style="font-weight:400">Ailish breaks our kiss for a moment and grips the hair on the side of my head while staring into my eyes from above, moaning and gasping fervently from the assault on her lower body.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Nhnnnnn~! Give it to me deep! Ahnnn~! Shoot it far~! Far~! Ahnn~! Ahnn~! Flood that slutty womb!”
<span style="font-weight:400">She descends onto my lips again after rying her message and I grip her waist harder, turning up the drilling her pussy gets by a notch, aiming to give her exactly what she asked for. When I feel my load building up, her tattoo shes the brightest yet and I push my penis deep into her yearning folds as far as she lets me. A luscious torrent of semen fills her furthest depths as both of use at the same time.
<span style="font-weight:400">I notice a different than usual connection forming between us, on the side of my Partner’s one. It’s on a much deeper and more profound level as if I’m being granted ess to everything she is and represents with herself, including her life energy.
<span style="font-weight:400">It formspletely in a matter of around ten seconds as we enjoy our highs in the arms of each other. Afterwards, I wait for Ailish to stop trembling and catch her breath, lying on top of my chest as I stroke through her crimson hair.
<span style="font-weight:400">She releases a long and contented sigh before sliding down to my side, still hugging me closely. I reposition myself a little for our faces to match. She chuckles softly after our gazes meet and nces down at her tattoo.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Oh? The core formation changed?”
<span style="font-weight:400">I make some distance between us and check it out too. In the middle of it, inside a big heart where empty space was before, a familiar symbol popped up. It’s the same one my girls use as their fake ve seals—the heart with two horns, subi tail, long, bat-like wings and the letter A in Infernal.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Interesting… I’ve heard only the highest rank Arch Incubi can imprint their Soul Marks on others. It’s very pretty.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Soul Mark?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“It’s like your signature but formed from the deepest parts of your soul. It often symbolizes what the person went through that made them into who they currently are. The letter inside it is you. I can only guess, but it seems that you’ve experienced a deep and caring love from someone, it doesn’t have to specifically be a romantic one, that’s why the heart surrounding it. The demonic horns, tail and wings might refer to some kind of evil force you’ve struggled against that somehow came with that love, but with how it is visible only on the borders, it doesn’t seem toe from the same person. And the script is Infernal most likely because you don’t see yourself as apletely good person, closer to a neutral one. Surprising for many, Infernal is not an evil script.”
<span style="font-weight:400">I graze my fingers over the mark on Ailish’s underbelly and marvel over how urate her analysis of the sigil is.
<span style="font-weight:400">“That was pretty spot on. I guess it really reflects my soul.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Anyway,” she lifts my chin with her hand and pecks my lips, “the ceremony is nowpleted and I’m all yours. There are many benefits from this but the most important ones are that I can now share with you my life energy and mana, you can freely explore my mind while also possibly allowing me to dive into yours, we will be growing stronger together at the same time and I can now hide inside your soul whenever, which is especially useful after I get hurt as I recuperate faster in there.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“What about my Soul Realm? Can you like, live there?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Huh?” She blinks at me. “You can form and ess your Soul Realm at Tier 3 already?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Well, I can’t get inside by myself, but it does exist since like Tier 2, for some reason. It might have something to do with the Goddess.”
<span style="font-weight:400">She sighs and shakes her head. “It will take me a long time to stop getting surprised by everything thates from you, won’t it?”
<span style="font-weight:400">I chuckle and shrug my shoulders. We lie down together for around an hour more and discuss some things about me and her. I learn that Ailish is truly an Arch Subus. Her stats are quite high, around eighty across the board already. We also start at the second level of the Bond, with the caption of an Understanding Pair. This will me quite a few stat points.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Alright. I’d like to move out if you are okay with it. Do you know how much time passed since we fucked in that cave?” I ask while getting off the bed.
<span style="font-weight:400">“I think we’ve slept for around four hours, so including the second round and our short talk, almost six hours passed since then. Worried about your little entourage?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Only a little. I just hope they are waiting for me instead of trying something stupid.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Let me just pack some of my stuff and we can go. I’m honestly already sick of this stone chamber.”
<span style="font-weight:400">Ailish then flies off the bed and regains her ck-red demonic material around her body again, forming it from a ck mist. She then opens up a drawer, picks something up, and I watch as she waves her hand around and many things disappear into thin air, including parts of the furniture.
<span style="font-weight:400">“A spatial storage artifact?” I ask, slightly dumbfounded.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Hm? Yeah, I have a few ones in my possession. They are yours if you want.”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Well, I have this,” I reply and throw her my ring.
<span style="font-weight:400">She catches it and immediately frowns. “What the hell is this sorry and miserable thing? Did Goblins make it? Throw that tiny trash away and use this instead. Pathetic.”
<span style="font-weight:400">I pick up a ck ring with a small, crimson jewel embedded into it from her hand and slide it onto my finger. The sheer size of the space inside overwhelms me for a moment and Ailish supports me before I lose bnce from the dizziness. I did not expect such disparity.
<span style="font-weight:400">“Damn… Ugh… That’s like a quite spacious five-story building…”
<span style="font-weight:400">“It’s just a basic one. I’m sorry for not having any better ones. I’ve never been the person to need even this much space.”
<span style="font-weight:400">I shake my head and smile at her. “No, it’s amazing. How many of them do you have?”
<span style="font-weight:400">“Just four. One should be enough to collect all things from this cave.”
<span style="font-weight:400">While she takes care of that, I go to the previous chamber to collect the pieces of clothing I’ve thrown to the ground thest time I was there and also check it out. When I’m back, she is already done and the room looks almostpletely empty. Even the bed is gone.
<span style="font-weight:400">“And now, I can do this~?”
<span style="font-weight:400">Ailish grins and turns into ckish smoke that floats towards me and seeps into my chest, disappearingpletely.
<i><span style="font-weight:400">~Damn, you haven’t lied about your Soul Realm. And even though it’s in the infant stage, it’s very beautiful. I love it. You need to work on getting inside, I’m sure having sex here would feel incredible.~</i>
<span style="font-weight:400">I chuckle. <i><span style="font-weight:400">~That’s the first thing thates to your mind after getting there?~</i>
<i><span style="font-weight:400">~Hey, a woman has to know her needs and I’m not going to act shy about my own. I need a good dick in my pussy and it so happens that yours is the best I’ve ever shoved down there. Or did you expect me to suddenly change into a loving and devoted housewife looking forward to raising kids and asional, chaste kisses from her spouse?~</i>
<i><span style="font-weight:400">~Certainly not, hahaha. Make yourself at home. You’ll get as much dick as you want. Within my time and capabilities.~</i>
<i><span style="font-weight:400">~Brilliant.~</i>
<span style="font-weight:400">With a friendly banter and a little chat about our pasts, I start making my way back through the cave system while Ailish leads me through it perfectly. I first check on the natural chamber where we left the unconscious vigers and don’t find them there. There are no traces of any struggle or monsters so I assume that the Ephemeral Aegis has moved them.
<span style="font-weight:400">When we finally make it out of the caves, the dark sky of the night greets us. It’s quite understandable considering the time of our attempted Subus raid and everything that has transpired after it failed, from their perspective at least.
<span style="font-weight:400">Ailish materializes herself and flies around for a moment to check if someone might not be nearby and she jumps back into my soul after we confirm that no one is waiting for me in the close vicinity of the entrance.
<span style="font-weight:400">I head back to the vige without meeting anyone either. Only at the gate leading inside, I stumble on the guards and they seem surprised to see me, so I assume that some rumours might have already spread over the poption.
<span style="font-weight:400">One of the men informs me that the party is recuperating in our inn and the other one darts off to inform the mayor after I tell him that the Subus was taken care of. Both of them didn’t feel especially ted by that news and Ailish’s chuckle inside my mind clearly pointed out why.
<span style="font-weight:400">After confirming with the innkeeper that they are in their rooms, I ask him to inform them about my return and order the best course the establishment can offer, served to the VIP lounge. I’m starving after almost two collective hours of sex and the time that passed since our breakfast. Ailish joins me for the feast and we stuff ourselves with quite tasty dishes.
<span style="font-weight:400">Around ten minutes after we start stuffing ourselves with food, the rushed footsteps of a group of people reach our ears and the door flies open.
<span style="font-weight:400">“stair! Are you oka—?!”
<span style="font-weight:400">Kyrie barges inside with the rest of the squad and freezes after noticing a certain individual sitting by my side. They instantly draw out their weapons. Whoops. I might have gotten too engrossed in eating and forgot to hide Ailish. Oh well.
