Chapter 125 – The Echo_I Own a Brothel in Another World

Chapter 125 – The Echo

 A brief silence fills my Soul Realm after Lumina abruptly leaves. Ailish nces at me with a smile, slowlying closer.

 “So, you have finally fucked enough pussies to jump a Tier, huh. Congrattions are in order, I guess.”

 I wrap my arm around her waist and peck my mischievous Subus’ cheek.

 “Thank you. I think we’ve already celebrated it enough so you don’t need to throw another party for me.”

 She chuckles, tracing her fingers over my chest. “Oh,e on. You can’t advance to the fifth Tier twice. It’s an important event.”

 “It could very well be a typical Monday and you would be thirsty for more cock just like right now.”

 Ailish bats her eyshes at me. “Whatever could you mean?”

 Chuckling slightly, I flick her horn, evoking a musical moan from its silly owner.

 “Tame down the horny a little. You not only got wrecked in the real world but even here, in my Soul Realm. In front of a Goddess, nheless.”

 “Fiiiiiiiiiine.” She backs away a little with a pout. “You are just too incredible. me your wonderful cock.”

 “Or the Goddess.” I smirk at her. “It’s thanks to her that I got this body and most of my abilities.”

 “Eh. I think I would still fall in love with this dick even if it wasn’t full of divinity. Of course, the part attached to it is very lovely too. Always so sweet and kind.” She shows a grin.

 “The part attached to it will forward thepliment to the important piece and will thank you for it in its stead.” I p Ailish on her plump, rude butt, evoking a chuckle from her. “You are already ahead of a lot of people with your ability to bang me in my dreams whenever you want so show some restraint or others will grow jealous.”

 “Well, I haven’t actually used any of my Wet Dream techniques on you yet but I agree that your Soul Realm makes for a fine dream ce. It could use some of your clones, though. Then it would be perfect. Just imagining this many stair''s cocks poking me all around is making me shiver.”

 I shake my head at the slightly trembling Subus with a silly smile on her lips.

 “It would be much better if you weren’t the only one able toe here. Instead of dicks, imagine if we could pull inside someone from afar to talk face-to-face. Just like this, poof, and Ghilerie appea—”

 A cloud of pinkish smoke explodes in the air slightly above the ground and quickly forms a humanoid shape.

 “—rs…” I finish my sentence after a brief pause and blink a few times.

 “Did you just…?” Ailish raises her brows at the unusual sight.

 Right in front of us, on the pinkish grass, Ghilerieys on her back. Completely naked, at that. Her legs are pulled close to her body with her feet joined behind her neck.

 In that quite special position, which exposes her everything to the viewer and raises her butt a bit into the air, she holds one of her hands between her cheeks with her fingers bent in a way as if she is holding onto something. The spot it''s aimed at and the slowly closing ring of her cute backdoor suggest only one answer.

 She locks gazes with me,pletely frozen. Bit by bit, heavier and heavier crimson shade sneaks onto her beautiful face as she realizes that we understand exactly what she has been doing before suddenly getting thrown gods know where.

 Trying to stay somewhatposed, Ghilerie struggles a little in removing her feet from behind her neck and slowly stands up, ncing at us with an embarrassed smile. I try to smile back in this awkward situation but Ailish doesn’t exactly help, exploding into a moderate fit ofughter at the side, causing her to blush even fiercer.

 I leave the chuckling and giggling Subus and snap my fingers. Some clothes appear on the Elf’s body as Ie closer, covering herdy bits. It’s quite simr to what I have seen her casually wear in her settlement.

 “Thanks…” she whispers timidly.

 “No need. And sorry about that. I didn’t really want to… interrupt you.”

 “Yeah, I noticed from your expression.” She chuckles awkwardly. “So… Ummm… What exactly is this?”

 Ailish stops straining her belly and arrives by my side. “Wee to this guy’s Soul Realm. Nice to meet you, I’m Ailish.”

 “Soul Realm?” Ghileire furrows her brows a bit.

 “If I may ask first, what have you been—no, where were you when I pulled you in?” I decide to inquire about a few details before answering.

 “Ummm… I’m pretty sure I was in my house back at the vige… doing… ummm… you know what…” she exins with some trouble.

 “Destroying your asshole with a replica of his cock?” Ailish smirks at Ghilerie and I bonk her on the head.

 “Leave her be. How would you feel if I suddenly teleported you in front of someone while you were sting your holes off?”

 She bites on her lower lip and gives me a coy stare. I roll my eyes at her and refocus on Ghilerie.

 As if Hari isn''t enough…

 “Anyway, I’m just wondering how it’s possible. I didn’t see any mention of it in my skills and abilities or any other ce. I just thought about youing here and you just… came.”

 “Technically, she didn’t ye—”

 I bonk Ailish even harder, interrupting her. She giggles at me yfully. Before she getspletely out of control, I snap my fingers again and purplish belts fly at her from everywhere around and bind the frivolous Subus from head to toes, including her mouth, of course.

 With almost no control over her body, Ailish facents into the pink grass and starts mumbling something iprehensible.

 Good. Suffer the consequence of your words.

 Thankfully, no one can die here without my permission so we don’t have to worry about her suffocating or anything. I nce at Ghilerie again and we chuckle together after meeting gazes.

 “I’m not sure if I can help you understand what just happened. At one moment, I was… masturbating… and at the next moment, my vision swirled,” she actually admits it with a heavy blush.

 Ie closer to the pretty Elf and pull Ghilerie into a gentle kiss. “That’s already plenty, thank you.”

 “So, Soul Realm?” She raises a brow at me.

 “It’s kind of what the name suggests. This is a space inside my soul that I have full control of. And not only of it, as it seems. I should be only starting to form it at around the fifth Tier but I was somewhat blessed in that regard, hahaha.”

 She nods softly. “I see. And I assume I shouldn’t be able to appear here?”

 “Well, you shouldn’t have been. Previously, only Ailish could jump in here whenever she wished for it thanks to the special bond we share, rted to her being a Subus. She can freely rest inside my soul, exist there, and such.”

 “Amazing. I guess that’s Subi for you.”

 I’m pretty sure the slightly louder mumbling is meant to be a thanks for thepliment but we still ignore the wriggling bundle of horny ham lying on the ground.

 “Yeah, but you aren’t a Subus. I wonder if you dematerialized back in your settlement or if it’s just your soul that has arrived here. This could be a big deal.” I rub my chin.

 “We can test that. I should be able to ask the Elder to watch over me if I can return now and get called in here again.”

 “Sure. Let’s see.”

 I try my best to focus on pushing Ghilerie out of my Soul Realm and she soon plummets to the ground after turning into a shadowy silhouette of violet mist. Certain that it will take a moment, I crouch in front of Ailish and flip her onto her back instead.

 “Having fun down there?” I ask with a smirk.

 She brings out the best puppy eyes she can muster and stares at me pleadingly.

 “Nope. I’m not falling for this shit.”

 With a yful and gentle kick, I flip her back onto her belly. Ten more minutes should be enough.

 ~stair. We are ready,~ Ghilerie informs me through Sweet Whispers.

 Nice. They got even clearer after I advanced. If not for the slightly sultry and coy tone, it would be almost like any other normal telepathy. But, I don’t really dislike it. Sultry Ghilerie sounds sexy.

 ~Got it. Trying to pull you back.~

 Just as I said, I imagine her appearing in front of me again, and surely, the pink mist does exactly the same as before, forming Ghilerie’s silhouette in a sh. Instead of spreading herself to the world this time, she just stands calmly with her hands joined over her navel.

 Almostpletely naked again, though. The only change is the nice brownish panties she must have put on in the real world, I guess. Same as before, I bring some more clothes onto her body.

 ~So, the verdict?~ I ask Elyari, sharing the message with Ghilerie while we look at each other expectantly.

 ~She entered some kind of a trance,~ the Elf Elder replies. ~Her vision is slightly hazy and distant but her eyes are still open. And, she’s still physically here. Do you feel this?~

 Shortly after receiving the question, Ghilerie moves her gaze onto her right forearm, raising it a little.

 “I do. Are you squeezing my arm, Elder?” she asks with wide eyes.

 ~More or less, yes,~ Elyari answers immediately.

 “That’s good to know,” Iment to them both. “The transferred person won’t bepletely oblivious to their surroundings while their real body is left behind. Now, the real question. Are you special or…?”

 I focus my mind again, and surely, the figure of the Elder materialises by the skilful hunter’s side. The emerald-haired beauty opens her eyes and smiles at me. While she isn’tpletely naked, Elyari is only in her underwear, perhaps pulled out of the bed by her subordinate.

 “Good evening, stair. I didn’t expect to see you this soon,” she greets me with a polite nod.

 “Nice to see you too, Elyari. And not just see but also meet, and feel.”

 I reach out and take her palm into mine, leaning forward a bit to ce a peck at the back of the Elder’s hand.

 She chuckles softly. “You are right. What an incredible experience. Where are we, by the way? It’s so beautiful here.”

 “This is inside stair’s soul, Elder,” Ghilerie answers before me.

 “Oh. You can form your Soul Realm with so much detail already? Weren’t you at like Tier 4?” The other woman raises a brow at me.

 “Now I’m at Tier 5, but even before, I was still able toe here and customise this space. The only difference was that only I could do so, and a certain Subus bound to me with a vow.”

 Elyari nces at the tied-up Ailish after I point at her over my shoulder with my thumb and chuckles again.

 “Hello. It’s nice to meet you too.” She then turns back to me. “You are full of surprises, stair. I’m very d. We can now meet a bit more often than I have assumed we could. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate the ability to talk to you and the others mentally, but this is on another level.”

 “We can also do more than just meet, right?” Ghilerie gives me a slightly curious and embarrassed nce.

 At that very moment, Ailish somehow manages to tear off the band covering her mouth and spits it away.

 “YES, YOU CAN HAVE HIM POUND YOUR ASSHOLES AS MUCH AS YOU LIKE AND YOU WON’T GET TIRED OR SORE FOR HOURS IF NOT DAYS—MMMMMPPPHHHHMMM!”

 I quickly apply a three times stronger seal and show an apologetic smile to the Elves.

 Elyari lets out a musical chuckle again. “She isn’t exactly wrong there.”

 “Maybe. But she’s still in horny jail for being unnecessarily rude, bold and straightforward. Now for an additional fifteen minutes.”

 A loud whine reaches our ears and we allugh a little.

 “All in all, yeah, this is an incredible change, guaranteed that it is a change and not something I could always do but just didn’t know about it.” I look down at the violet-skinned criminal. “Ailish? I’ll remove your gag so please, say something relevant or you get another hour.”

 The obstruction disappears and Ailish hastily opens her mouth just to pause for a second and close it. I raise a brow at her and she chuckles awkwardly. It’s clear that she’s almost done it again.

 “Ekhm. I don’t know. I’ve never heard anything about one person pulling others into their Soul Realm, except for bonded Subi and Incubi. Maybe your own bonds work in a simr way? Also, could you flip me over again? Grass is getting into my mouth as I speak.”

 I grant her request and turn Ailish over. She spits a few des of pink grass and smiles at me.

 “Behave.” I point a finger at her and she nods. “Possible. We did try to bring others here while you were teaching me how to get in myself and control this space but it never worked before.”

 “Who knows? You might have gotten stronger. The Goddess surely wasn’t testing the strength of your soul for no reason. Alright, fine, she could have been curious, I guess, but you get my point. This just might be something fresh,” she continues.

 “The Goddess?” Elyari nces at me with surprise.

 “A long story.” I chuckle a little. “But yeah, she was here moments before you came. Or rather, I brought you.”

 The Elfdies look between each other in shock and I don’t me them. I’m sure they don’t fully believe me. The part that I might have once met the Goddess? Perhaps, since they know that I’m a Hero. But the part about her casually visiting me just before them? Maybe not so much.

 “Back to the topic, though. If you don’t mind staying with us and going through this, of course.”

 “I will happily assist you, stair. I don’t have any responsibilities to tend to tonight.” Elyari nods with a soft smile.

 “Me too. But… you already know that…” Ghilerie blushes a bit again, ncing at me with a slightly upturned gaze.

 “Thanks.” I smile back at them. “Hmmm… How could we test it more? I guess I could try calling someone unrted.”

 Deciding to give it a go, I attempt to summon Ross here. As expected, nothing happens. Assuming that it might work only on women, I try to focus my thoughts on someone who definitely views me positively but isn’t really connected to me. May is the first person thates to my mind.

 Again, no result. No pinkish smoke swirls near the ground.

 “Unrted doesn’t work.” I shake my head.

 “It’s most likely limited to your Partners,” Ailish suggests.

 “I was thinking of the same. Let’s see.”

 This time, I imagine Meiya and Neiya, the Satyr sisters. Unfortunately, nothing happens.

 “There’s only one answer left, then. I kind of expected that since both of you fit the criteria.” I nce at the Wood Elf duo.

 Ailish snorts. “Yeah. You can only summon the girls you have already raile—mmmhhmmmhhh…”

 Elyari and Ghilerie chuckle together as I silence her again.

 “Language, dear.” I snicker too. “But, that’s right. The full activation of the Partners bond seems to be necessary. Time to confirm that for good.”

 With another focused thought, we finally notice the same rising smoke low by the ground. Soon, a new figure joins us in thisnd of pink shades and Shino curiously turns her head from side to side, moving her eyes all around. And, she’s in underwear too. Of course.

 “Oh. Sensei. Hello! Where am—what kind of y is this?” The adorable samurai girl switches her question midway after her eyes stop at the naked and clearly leaking, restrained Subus.

 “Neglect y. Just ignore her.” I smile at my sweet Japanese girlfriend.

 Shino giggles, nods at the Elf duo, and trots close to me. I immediately deploy a few pats to her pretty hair.

 “Were you doing something important?” I ask.

 “No, I was just lying in my bed in the castle, thinking about you…”

 “Well, looks like I was thinking about you harder.” I chuckle and ruffle through those mesmerising ck strands a bit more.

 She shows a warm smile and I ce a peck on her dainty lips.

 “This is?” she asks after.

 “Inside my soul. A new ability, I think. Pulls your soul or mind away from your body and brings it here, to my domain. Neat, don’t you think?”

 Shino’s eyes sparkle briefly. “That means we can meet every day no matter where I am, right, Sensei?”

 “Indeed.” I smile back. “You can now get some cuddles before sleep whenever you want and wherever you are. Unless we discover some limits to this. I hope you can help test things out.”

 “Of course, I can! This is so exciting!” Shino hugs me gently and I return the embrace. “And we could host fun meetings here too with all your wives present! Or just a few! I would be really happy to speak more with Neira-san! You should seeter if there’s a certain number of people you can bring here at the same time.”

 “Good thinking. I will check it outter, as you said. They might be a tad tired right now, hahaha. And my new mate is still very fresh so she doesn’t know much about how things work.”

 “New mate?” Shino nces up at me.

 “Well…”

 She lets out a cute giggle, covering her petite mouth.

 “You have already fallen for the sharkgirl, haven’t you, Sensei?”

 I scratch my cheek with a wry smile and Shino chuckles adorably again.

 “Looks like I won.”

 “Won what?” I raise my brows at her.

 “We bet with Natalie-san on how long it would take her to charm you, Sensei.” She giggles again. “We both know how big of a monstergirl lover you were back on Earth. And fierce sharkgirls like her were quite high on the list, no?”

 “You little…”

 I keep rubbing her head while Shino keeps giggling frantically, not even trying to stop me.

 Well, she isn’t technically wrong. And I’m not surprised she knows a lot about my tastes since a lot of them were based on her incredible artworks. I’m d to know that she and Natalie are still best friends doing best friends things, like betting on who will their friend’s boyfriend bed next and how soon.

 Yeah. Just normal best friends stuff.

 “So, you can only bring intimate Partners here, right?” Ghilerie interrupts our fun and I end bullying my samurai girlfriend. “All the inanimate objects are… your creation? Or can you bring them here?”

 “Everything follows my will. Even things like gravitation.”

 I raise my finger and point it towards the sky. The pulling force lessens and we gradually begin floating off the ground. Shino starts cutely waving her arms while in awe, the Elf duo nces curiously at their bodies and feet, and Ailish begins spinning faster and faster, still bound by my restraints.

 With another gesture, I return the state of things back to normal, gradually, of course, and then rub my chin.

 “Although… I wonder if…”

 I extend my hand forward, palm up, and think heavily about something. Soon, a familiar hiltes to existence on it, printed by the pinkish mist. I grip the draconic artifact after it finishes forming and look at it.

 “The question is if this is just something that my Soul Realm has created as a copy or if—”

 Suddenly, the artifact flies out of my hand and hangs vertically in the air. The crystal at the bottom end of the pommel shes briefly and begins leaking purplish mist, forming a familiar helix, this time around the entire hilt, swirling over its whole length.

 We watch how the smoke grows thicker and thicker, forming a person-sized pir of purplish haze. Soon, the hilt disappears inside it and bes impossible to spot anymore. The rough column begins to gradually take a more refined shape.

 I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one who immediately notices its simrity to a woman’s body as everyone stares at the quite enticing curves and valleys forming up. It takes about thirty seconds for all the mist to create a detailed silhouette.

 I don’t really feel threatened by whatever is happening or appearing, but just in case, I take conscious control of my Soul Realm to use whatever I can to restrain the unannounced guest if they have ill intentions and I won’t be able to just boot them out of my house.

 When no more smoke joins the filled-to-the-brim shape, something peculiar happens.

 A pinkish me bursts at the figure’s feet and begins crawling up their feet and then legs. If someone has ever seen what burning pollen-covered grass looks like then that’s exactly how the firezily travels up the feminine silhouette. Instead of uncovering the grass under the pollen, though, it seems to uncover skin. Beautiful light skin with a slightly pinkish shade.

 In a quite long moment, the misty shape turns into a dazzling woman of divine beauty.

 As I have mentioned, she has unimaginably pretty and appealing light pinkish skin. It’s not really pink as in pink, like red is red for Mafaris, but it’s like natural Human light skin tinged with a rosy shade or tint. It’s so charming, cute, sexy and alluring.

 She has what you could call a perfect body. All the curves at the correct ces, all the proper thickness at the exact proper locations, super alluring and fit stomach, sizable and perky breasts with also slightly pinkish, sweet nipples, and so on.

 Toplete all that, she has gorgeous, angelic, tinum-blond hair, reaching down to her waist in a simple but beautiful straight fashion. Some of the locks fall onto her chest, just entuating its allure, making her slightly erect nipples stand out amongst the golden strands even more.

 But, she has more than that.

 Two curled whitish horns decorate her head and a pair of wings hang down from her back. Their frame and skeleton are also somewhat whitish while the membranes turn into a pretty shade of pink. They are simr to Ailish’s but much, much less demonic and much, much more sweet and charming.

 As expected, a thin tail of simr white-pinkish colour dances at the height of her butt, finished with a softly angled spade. I notice an extremelyplex womb tattoo over her pelvic area, like three times as big as Ailish’s.

 Attaining proper weight, she drops onto the pink grass from floating slightly above it while in her misty form and slowly opens her eyes.

 And they are as dazzling as her entire angelic but unbelievably sexy and alluring face. She has deep crystal blue irises with a faint trace of vertical pupils,plementing each other perfectly.

 If I didn’t know any better, even though it’s just an assumption made from quite a few obvious hints and verbal exchanges in the past, I would have thought that an angel descended into my Soul Realm. Horned one but still divine.

 Something urges me to nce down at Ailish and surely, I find her shocked into the next Tuesday. All her movements have ceasedpletely and she justys in the grass on her back with her head tilted to look at the new guest. No need to say that her eyes are literal saucers.

 I release all her restraints since I’m fairly sure she recognizes the woman, even though I don’t remember her mentioning anything about her kind knowing about that person’s exact looks. Well, I think the current image would be perfect to the fucking T and I could make another stupid bet that I know who this is too.

 Soon after getting freed, Ailish flips over and hastily raises herself enough to drop back onto one knee, lowering her head.

 “This insignificant one greets the great Allmother.”

 The woman regards her with a soft but very calm and even more divine gaze than Lumina’s.

 “Rise, dear child.”

 Ailish stands up immediately. The woman’s eyeszily switch to me.

 “Atst, we are able to meet, o Fated One.”

 “Lilith, I presume?”

 She makes a slow, graceful nod. “Your guess is correct, Fated One.”

 “Just stair is fine. It’s kind of weird collecting all those exaggerated names like Hero, Saviour, Fated One.” I smile wryly.

 “It is the fate of beings with almost limitless potential. Destiny often favours such people greatly.”

 “You speak more like a goddess than the actual Goddess.” I chuckle quietly under my breath.

 “Pardon my rude intrusion, Allmother, but does this mean that… you have been released from your slumber?” Ailish joins in politely.

 Lilith turns her face to the violet-skinned Subus.

 “Unfortunately, that is not correct, dear child. What you are seeing currently, is the Echo of the Soul which the original me had imnted into her artifact before entering the eternal slumber. It is also why my speech is so calm, neutral, and limited, stair.”

 “As I thought.” I nod. “That would have been too easy. Are you able to tell us how to wake up the original you?”

 “This divine artifact is the key to my tomb and a crucial element in releasing my slumbering body and soul, as it should have been passed down the generations. I can feel that a lot of time has passed since the task of finding the proper wielder was issued.”

 “We have no excuse for our ipetency, Allmother.” Ailish lowers her head.

 “Do not apologise, dear child. It was a request almost impossible to fulfil and the original me was fully aware of it, not forcing this futile errand onto anyone unwilling.”

 “And the proper wielder was a Primordial, right?” I ask.

 “Or the first generation descendant, at worst,” Lilith answers calmly.

 “Where can we find the tomb, then?” I nce at Ailish and she gives me a warm smile.

 “I apologise but you aren’t yet ready to journey to the location of the tomb.”

 “What?” I furrow my brows at her. “You appeared in front of me after so long, doesn’t that mean that I’m ready?”

 “This Echo of Soul was able to properly disy itself due to how developed your Soul Realm is. Unfortunately, the necessary requirement ced by the original is for the wielder to be at least Tier 6 in terms of strength. That is the moment at which one’s Soul Realm achieves this level ofplexity.”

 So, I''ve been walking around with sixth-Tier Soul Realm since like Tier 3 or so. Damn.

 “Even though I’m not Tier 6 yet, I’m technically much stronger than any normal Tier 5, maybe even on par with something like Tier 8 if I’m not mistaken. I should be plenty strong,” I argue.

 “I apologise but the requirement cannot be bypassed. The wielder has to be at least Tier 6 for me to reveal the sensitive information to them. Please, ask me about it again after you advance enough times."

 I sigh and hear Ailish whine quietly. Moving a bit closer, I give her side a tender rub.

 “Don’t worry. We’ll get her. I promised.”

 She nces at me with a slightly sad but still loving smile and pecks my lips.

 “I know. I was the one to tell you not to rush things and just be on the lookout during your travels. Thank you.”

 “So, it’s more like a hologram than an actual person, right, Sensei?” Shino finally joins in, most likely leaving the conversation to me and Ailish earlier.

 “I don’t think Lilith knows what a hologram is but yes, something like that,” I reply. “She most likely not only can’t reveal some of the information but I bet anything else is highly limited too.”

 “That is correct, stair,” the person in question chimes in. “Creating an Echo of the Soul is not a trivial matter and it’s not the same as Soul Transfer, Soul Mimicry, or Soul Splitter. Therefore, I won’t be able to reply to every single question as my answers would finally run out.”

 “A programmed hologram,” Shino says again with a small giggle.

 “Anything you can share with me at the current moment or do we need to wait until I reach Tier 6 before you can fill me in?” I ask.

 “The location of the tomb is an extremely dangerous area. It is advised to prepare properly and not attempt to uncover it alone. The situation might have changed over the centuries or decades butirs of a few powerful mystical beasts were present in the area during its creation.”

 “Looks like we are going on a party quest sometime in the future.” I chuckle and tap Ailish’s waist. “We better make sure everyone who might being with us tiers up high enough.”

 “That will require a lot of work from you.” She giggles and whips my butt with her tail.

 “Additionally, after reaching Tier 5, all the functions of the artifact have been unlocked. Its power is no longer limited and the wielder doesn’t require any more support from the Echo of the Soul. It is possible to fuel it with the Echo’s energy to increase its power even more temporarily but it is not advised unless in a critical emergency.”

 “Well, I’m surely not going to erase you and all that knowledge intentionally,” I reply. “We don’t even know the location yet, not mentioning any other possible parts of the whole thing.”

 “Even without that, your weapon should have gotten a lot stronger, no, Sensei?” Shino trots closer to us and asks.

 “For sure. I guess it actually grew stronger with each Tier. That should have been obvious with how the misty helix was reduced each time. I kinda thought stats from Partners and other things affected it too but ording to what Lilith said, most things are locked behind Tiers.”

 “Is there perhaps any upper time limit to reach the tomb?” Ghilerie also joins the conversations. “As in, can your original body remain in slumber forever?”

 “No, it can’t. But, the temple has been built on a natural spiritual vein so all the magical formations and arrays will be able to remain active for many more generations.”

 “If nothing changes regarding that vein or the vicinity of the tomb,” I add.

 “Ummm… If something happened to the original body, would you know about it?” Ailish brings up a quite important question.

 “Unfortunately, I would not. There’s no stable and active connection between the artifact and the main body. It will be active in the close vicinity of the tomb.”

 My charming Subus pales a little and I peck her cheek reassuringly.

 “No use in worrying about it. We will go after her as soon as we can. Until then, there’s nothing we can do. I’m sure the Allmother prepared a lot of safety measures to keep herself ready for her valiant prince on a white horse.”

 She chuckles lightly and nods. “I bet she didn’t predict such a charming one to show up.”

 “Alright. Anything else, Lilith?”

 “That is all for now. Unless you have questions. As long as I am able to answer, I will aid you.”

 “I guess we wrap this up, then. Thank you, Lilith. As promised, we will find the real you whenever we can.”

 Lilith’s Echo nods respectfully and I can notice a tiny smile curving the corners of the woman’s mouth as she begins turning into smoke again. Soon, she dissipatespletely and returns to the crystal at the pommel. The artifact flies back to my hand and I swear the jewel glints at me.

 Shino yawns adorably and everyone else follows. We all chuckle together.

 “Time to hit the bed. As intended this time.” I squint my eyes at the frivolous Subus.

 Ailish bats her eyshes at me and we exchange a few pecks. Everyone present in my Soul Realm gets at least one and we split, wishing each other good night.

 There’s still so much to do and we are pilling new responsibilities every fucking hour.

 It''s a tough life being the Fated One.
