Chapter 1949: Prowess

Though she generally went with the flow, consequences be damned, Yuri was understandably miffed by the sudden appearance of the two Spirits of the 13 Month Series. Talking was the last thing on her mind right now, so, before either could explain the reason for their appearance, she manifested her Arms Inventory, grabbing their hilts and subsequently tossing them full force as she shouted, "Don't even think about getting in the way...!"

Unfortunately, while she was able to toss the duo with enough force to effectively disintegrate the ceiling, there was little she could do to prevent them from coming back of their own accord. Each of the 13 Month Series was fully sapient, and, though they seldom took action, they were fully capable of maneuvering about independently. This was especially easy in regions of high-density Shinsu, so, shortly after the duo's departure, both streaked back like bolts of green and black lightning.

Just as Yuri was about to blow a fuse, Vahn grabbed the black-haired beauty from behind, holding her in his embrace as he whispered, "Relax. Regardless of their reason for appearing, it's not going to prevent me from ravishing you properly..."

To punctuate his words, Vahn licked the back of Yuri's ear, his right hand moving to her left breast as his left breached the fabric of her panties and tights. This earned him a disbelieving look from the Green April, but, considering what might happen if he failed to pacify the disgruntled Saiyaness, Vahn didn't mind being a little shameless...

With Yuri momentarily docile, Vahn took a moment to ask, "So? What did you want to say?" before lowering his head to tenderly suckle on the exposed part of her neck. This, combined with his other efforts, caused Yuri's jaw to noticeably quiver, but, at the same time, it also afforded the Green April the chance to angrily grumble, "How did our fates end up in the hands of this womanizer...?" before immediately following it up with pointedly revealing, "The Power of Blood granted to Princesses of Jahad is a double-edged sword. Though it has the ability to demonstrably increase their power and potential, all their efforts will be in vain the moment they lose their virginity. All the power they had stockpiled over the years will be transferred to their partner. That monkey over there should be well aware of this fact. After all, she and that shitty midget bastard were both nearby when my previous owner ended up kicking the bucket."

Supporting her sister's statement, the Black March's dragon-like eyes began releasing a luminscent golden glow, her expression serious as she added, "If gorilla-girl over here gives up her virginity, the majority of her power will be transferred to you. Following that, every time you have sex, a fragment of that power will be transferred to your partner. This might sound like a convenient way to increase your strength, but, in reality, it is one of the many methods the King employs to keep traitors under his thumb. The moment you become afflicted with the King's Power of Blood, you will no longer be able to oppose him..."

Having wondered what the duo might reveal, Vahn nearly burst into laughter when he heard them mention such a 'small' issue with such severity. Curses were the thing he feared the least, and, given his ability to isolate and suppress the effects of Magia Erebea in Eva's body, it was laughable to hear someone allude to the possibility that Jahad's curse was beyond his means to influence...

Noticing the clear amusement in Vahn's countenance, even the Black March couldn't help feeling a little offended by his apparent disregard. She was genuinely worried about him, not just because he had promised to save them, so, seeing him smiling almost indifferently, her hair and dress began to flare violently as she balled her hands into fists and roared, "This is a serious matter, you smug little shit! The only reason Jahad hasn't been making a fuss about your involvement with the Princesses is that it will remove you as a threat. I might not care about what happens to that damn gorilla, but it will become a big fucking problem if you end up risking everything just because you wanted to get your dick wet...!"

Taken aback by the Black March's words, Vahn's actions stopped long enough for Yuri to come to her senses and threaten, "Once this is over with, I'm going to smear your blade with grease before tossing you through a sand dune..."

Unamused by Yuri's remark, the physical body of the Black March spun to aim itself just below her heart before the tip extended like a black bolt of lightning. This was an attack that Yuri could easily react to, but, long before such action was warranted, a second version of Vahn appeared out of thin air, grasping the obsidian black blade with his bare hand, stating, "That's enough." in a firm tone.

Though she wanted to voice a complaint, the familiar and pleasant energy flowing into the Black March's body caused her to fall silent. She had her suspicions regarding the reasons, but, whenever Vahn wielded her, she couldn't help but obey his words. It was like she had become an extension of his body, and, for a brief moment, she even felt as though she had become 'whole' again.

Exhaling a sigh of relief, Vahn grasped the shrunken version of the Black March by her hilt before extending his hand towards the Green April. This caused the latter to glare at him, but, despite her hostile exterior and abrasive manner of speaking, she was actually the more sensitive of the two 13 Month Series. In other words, she was basically a tsundere, so, as long as you were a little firm with her, she would become begrudgingly compliant.

With the two Spirits now hovering obediently at his back, Vahn responded with an approving nod before turning to the duo seated atop the bed and explaining, "I'm gonna take these two for some routine maintenance and explain the situation for them. Have fun."

Hearing Vahn mention the phrase "maintenance", a red hue suffused through the faces of the two Spirits and into the tips of their pointed, elven-like, ears. This earned them an amused smile from Yuri, but, before she could say anything at the duo's expense, a surprised yelp emanated from her throat as Vahn sent a pleasurable jolt into the tiny bud hidden within the confines of her remarkably moist panties.

By the time Yuri recovered from the sudden shock, Vahn 2.0 had already disappeared with the Black March and Green April in tow. This actually made her a little annoyed, not because Vahn was doing other things while preparing to do her, but because a part of her had wanted both versions to stick around. Six-hundred-and-eighteen-years had given her plenty of time to fantasize about all sorts of things, so, now that the opportunity had presented itself, there was a lot of things she wanted to try before her 'peers' managed to sink their teeth into Vahn. She might not be able to secure her place at the pinnacle of the Aldrnari Empire's hierarchy, but, at the very least, she could distinguish herself among the women originating from the Tower...

With this in mind, an excited glimmer radiated from the depths of Yuri's ruby-red eyes as she seized Vahn's wrist and asked, "How much longer do you intend to keep me waiting...?"

Taking advantage of the fact that Yuri was half-seated in his lap, Vahn bucked his hips, forcing her to abruptly stagger forward as he transitioned to his knees. Much to Yuri's surprise, this resulted in a surprisingly smooth transition to her hands and knees, her butt pointed towards Vahn. In the very next instant, a numbing sensation spread throughout her entire body as Vahn firmly seized the base of her tail and answered, "About three more seconds..."

As he had already suppressed the Power of Blood during their foreplay, Vahn punctuated his words by ripping the fabric of Yuri's tights, pulling aside her panties, and instantly penetrating her depths. This caused her entire body to tense up, but, just like every other battle maniac he had ever had sex with, the trembling of her body had less to do with pain than the drastic increase in her excitement.

Demonstrating this peculiarity to the fullest, a peal of unnerving laughter could be heard emanating from Yuri's throat as she quickly adapted to the pain and started shaking her butt as if to feel even more from his intrusion. Then, unable to control herself any longer, a violent red aura began to emit from Yuri's body as she shouted, "What are you waiting for!? Instructions...!?"

Responding to Yuri's taunt, Vahn activated one of the special abilities of the newly purchased bed, a rather dazzling barrier that prevented sounds, energy, and pretty much everything else from going beyond the four golden bedposts. This included Yuri's phenomenal aura, and, though it caused the density of Shinsu within the barrier to drastically increase, Vahn was able to absorb the majority into his Realm as their tumultuous battle for dominance began. Fortunately, while Yuri was actually quite a bit stronger than him under normal circumstances, defeating him within the confines of the Little Garden was virtually impossible for someone stuck at the bottleneck between Tiers 4 and 5...

Though she wasn't offering any meaningful resistance, Yuri was both excited and surprised by the fact that Vahn was basically able to manhandle her. She had tried turning the tables on him a few times, but, like a master practitioner of the ancient art of Aiki, all of her efforts resulted in her being put into even more compromising positions. He was using her own strength against her, and, as a result, she currently found her forehead rhythmically impacting the bed's barrier as Vahn's motions violently shook her body.

Refusing to go down without a fight, Yuri attempted to stop his movements by flexing her compact abdominal muscles. This actually worked for a short while, but, the moment she attempted to twist her body to the side and mount him in turn, Vahn redirected her momentum by forcing her into a sideways split and subsequently binding her ankle with a golden chain. This caused her face to turn beet red in an instant, not simply because she was in an incredibly awkward position, but because it allowed Vahn to hit her sweet spot while using her thigh as a hold. At the same time, she could feel his fingers press a few sensitive areas near her inner thigh and buttocks, each resulting in a tingling numbness that drastically reduced her muscle control while simultaneously increasing the amount of pleasure she was experiencing.

Unable to break free from the seemingly immovable chain, Yuri attempted to use it as leverage to twist her body around and kick Vahn in the chest. Unfortunately, this was a moment that Vahn had been waiting for, his eyes gaining a golden luster as the impact from her kick seemed to disappear into his body. Then, in an instant, her leg was forced up in a similar manner to the first, suspending her in place with her back against the barrier rather than on the bed.

Realizing her position, a startlingly red blush developed across Yuri's face as she averted her eyes from Vahn's wolfish smile and muttered, "Using items is cheating..."

Chuckling in response to the woman's insincere pout, Vahn ran his hands along the exterior of her thighs, threads of rainbow-hued energy flowing from his fingertips he softly muttered, "If those are your honest feelings, I don't mind releasing you and starting over from scratch..."

With her face becoming even redder, Yuri promptly snorted in response to Vahn's words before reaching around her unbelievably plump thighs and prying open her own insides. Then, with her eyes still averted to the side, she 'begrudgingly' suggested, "Just get on with it..." as several drops of pinkish liquid departed her steamy depths, trailing her intergluteal cleft before falling to the pure white bedding below...

Chapter 1950: Maintenance

Though he had expected things to get a little intense, even Vahn was beginning to feel exasperated by the eve of his tenth consecutive day of lovemaking. Without using extreme means, it seemed like Yuri's stamina and willpower would never run out; as, every time she was on the verge of defeat, her [Descendent of the War Goddess] Innate would consume the energy he had suffused into her body to provide a seemingly endless number of second winds.

With her strength steadily increasing, combined with the fact she was aware of their functionally limitless time, Yuri's 'enthusiasm' never seemed to subside. She was having more fun over these last ten days than the hundreds of years preceding them, so, unless Vahn submitted and allowed her to take control of the situation, she had no intention of backing down. After all, the longer their battle went on, the greater her pleasure and the more powerful she became. This, combined with the fact it would be quite the conversational piece if she managed to endure for several weeks, months, or even years, compelled Yuri to keep rising irrespective of the condition Vahn had left her body in...

Fortunately for Yuri, Vahn wasn't exactly known for doing things half-assedly. Some of the items he had forged took multiple months to complete, so, while he couldn't help feeling exasperated, Yuri's zeal wasn't wasted on him. He was also curious to see if she could achieve a breakthrough similar to Modred, so, every time her blood-crimson aura effectively resurrected her, a wry smile would briefly appear across his face before he subsequently psyched himself up for another round. He took great pride in being able to satisfy all of his women, so, regardless of how long it took, he wouldn't be the one to concede...

---

Having weakened the bond between him and his original self, so much so that he almost qualified as a Template, Vahn's offshoot was only vaguely aware of what was happening within the temporal distortion created by his counterpart. Instead, he busied himself with performing maintenance on the Black March and Green April, a relaxed smile on his face despite the fact the former preferred to observe the process whilst peeking over his shoulder with her arms around his neck.

Fortunately, despite her apparent tangibility, there were virtually no sensations whenever the Black March pressed herself against him. There was only a feeling of 'awareness' whenever they were in contact, and, though he was able to do things like caress her head, it was almost like he was petting empty air. This made it pretty easy to overlook her antics, as, even when she released hot-sounding sighs, the usual tepidity and moisture never came. It was almost like an auditory hallucination, and, were he to willfully ignore them, both Spirits would gradually disappear from his perception...

As the only person capable of directly interacting with their spiritual forms, Vahn felt it would be a little mean-spirited of him to completely ignore the two former Princesses. The truth of the matter was that they were desperately lonely, and, as a result of being sacrificed during the very first round of the Princess Selection Trials, they were understandably consumed by pessimism, resentment, and other negative emotions. They were also prisoners within their respective 13 Month Series, so, while it was a bit indulgent of him, Vahn didn't mind spoiling them when the opportunity presented itself.

To this end, Vahn spent the better part of an hour wiping down the body of the Black March before polishing her blade to the point that a faultless gloss covered its entire length. This resulted in the Spirit of the Black March panting in his ear and writhing about quite a bit, but, without any weight to produce inertia, her movements didn't interfere with the process. Instead, they caused the Spirit of the Green April to develop an increasingly more potent blush as the commencement of her own maintenance drew ever closer...

Finished with the Black March's maintenance, Vahn held her up to inspect his work from numerous angles. This included looking down the length of her blade from the base of her hilt, an action that earned him an impassioned laugh from the blade's spirit as she teasingly remarked, "That's my butt you're putting near your face..."

Ignoring the remark completely, Vahn rotated the blade in order to view the sheen from the other side. This caused the Spirit of the Black March's face to turn considerably redder, but, this time, she opted not to inform him of which part of her body he was near. Instead, she gradually released her hold on his neck, levitating away from him before directing her gaze to the Spirit of the Green April and adopting a teasing smile.

Clicking her tongue in response to the Black March's amused expression, the Green April resisted the urge to call the golden-haired brat a bitch as she floated over to Vahn's back and took a seat with her own resting against his. Being in contact with his body drastically increased the amount of resonance between them, and, while it wasn't necessary to perform the maintenance, being able to feel something as a Spirit was more meaningful than most people could imagine. They had existed for thousands of years without being able to experience such stimulus, so, even if she hadn't fallen to a similar extent as the Black March, it was impossible for her to hate the only person capable of making her feel alive...

With a gentle smile spreading across his face, Vahn set the Black March against a bed of hot towels before picking up the hook-like Green April. This caused the Spirit at his back to tense up, but, the moment his index and middle fingers traced along the backside of her shank, her tensions gradually eased as a contented sigh escaped her body. (A/N: The shank of a hook is the larger part before the bend and barb.)

Though he had a substantial number of tools and fabrics to carry out the maintenance, Vahn always started with a massage of sorts. He was perfectly capable of producing oil from his fingertips, a skill he had borrowed from the Chacha Sisters, and, most importantly, the sapience of the two 13 Month Series made them highly susceptible to his Petting Laws and Hands of Nirvana. The Green April was particularly weak against these two, as, unlike the Black March, the material of her body was similar to crystalized yet highly flexible plant fibers. This allowed her to function similarly to a whip during combat, but, in his hands, it meant she was remarkably malleable and pliant.

Doing his best to ignore the muffled cries and phantom trembling from his back, Vahn waited until the Green April had become completely limp before gently kneading her full length over the course of twenty or so minutes. This caused dew-like moisture to build along her grass-colored shank, but, having experienced this a handful of times during previous sessions, Vahn kept a hot towel on hand to counteract this particular phenomenon. Then, with a subtle rainbow hue suffusing the entirety of his palm, he grabbed the base of the Green March, restoring her rigidity and subsequently restoring her original form.

Though he could have wrapped things up then and there, Vahn lightly flicked several sections of the Green April, each impact causing the entire length of her 'blade' to hum similarly to a tuning fork. Afterward, he flipped her upside down before pulling out a series of small brushes and loose fabrics to wipe down and clean between the creases of her hilt. This caused the Spirit of the Green April to bury her face into her knees, tightly embracing them as he methodically attended each of the most sensitive spots of her body. This process lasted an additional half-hour, and, by the end, both Spirit and weapon had started to release an emerald-green glow that left the former clinging to his back while the latter vibrated with enough force to produce subtle ripples in the surrounding Shinsu.

Finished with the procedure, Vahn gave the physical body of the Green April a careful examination before placing her atop a bed of her own. Then, despite knowing she might react negatively to any form of acknowledgment in her current state, he surprised the Spirit of the Green April by rising to his feet, turning around, and gently caressing her head. This caused an immediate scowl to develop across her beet-red face, but, before she could say anything, he interrupted her by whispering, "It's okay. The Black March might tease you a little, but no one here will judge you...it isn't a weakness to want to feel something..."

Shaking her head to escape from Vahn's palm, the Green April responded by muttering, "Insatiable beast..." before looking up at him and adding, "Don't think I'll fall for your tricks like some lost child swayed by sweets. I might be willing to ignite for you, but you're mistaken if you think I'll be swayed by the 'sincerity' of someone with more than a hundred lovers..."

Despite the severity of her words, her ruddy complexion, combined with the conflicted look in her eyes, made it pretty obvious the Green April wasn't being sincere. Thousands of years of loneliness had left a deep impression on her heart and mind, yet, in spite of this, the brief moments she spent with Vahn seemed to be overwriting her past grievances and suppressing her desire for revenge. It was for this reason that she opposed growing any closer to him, as, for the last six-thousand-years, revenge was what had defined her existence...

Offering a sad smile in response to the Green April's biting words, Vahn decided not the press the matter any further. Instead, he placed the duo into his personalized Arms Inventory, a variant that greatly resembled a golden throne combined with a futuristic command console. There were also twelve slots located along its periphery, as, rather than a simple Arms Inventory, it was intended to serve as a replacement for the artifact intended to house the 12 weapons comprising the 13 Month Series.

Feeling a remarkable amount of comfort, an intrigued smile developed across the face of the Black March as the Green April's glowering expression gradually faded away. Then, as could be expected, the latter promptly asked, "What is this Arms Inventory? It feels familiar..."

Nodding her head in agreement, the Black March chimed in, saying, "It reminds me of that boy with black hair on the Floor of Tests. I think his name was the 25th Baam...?"

Smiling in response to the Black March's surprising astuteness, Vahn created a life-like projection of Baam as he explained, "Though I have yet to ascertain the full and complete truth, I can say with a reasonable degree of certainty that Jahad's intentions for tracking down Arlen were to implant the Arms Inventory of the 13 Month Series into Baam's body. I have even begun to suspect that he was in cahoots with the 'God' that made contact with Arlene following her departure from the Tower..."

Though he could have said more, Vahn ultimately shook his head since most of what he was saying was complete speculation. Most of the information he had been able to obtain was from someone who had gone mad following the loss of her child and the subsequent suicide of her lover. The rest was based on tidbits of information he had been able to obtain from Jahad and a few key members within the Workshop. Unfortunately, due to her inability to violate the contracts of people she was emulating, the Law of Identity couldn't even shake or nod in response to any questions that might expose the truth...

Confusing the two girls, Vahn opted to take a seat atop the golden throne before subtly changing the subject by answering the Green April's initial question, explaining, "This is a prototype Arms Inventory designed and manufactured by the members of my R&D Division. Once I have gathered the rest of your sisters, it will allow me to make good on our previous promise. Of course, you still have the option of allowing me to nullify your agreement with the King and allowing me to provide you with new bodies..."

As tempting as it was to regain a flesh and blood body in the shortest period of time, neither the Black March nor the Green April seemed phased by the offer. They had persisted for thousands of years with the end goal of reclaiming their original bodies, so, with that fated day fast approaching, neither intended to change course when the finish line was right in front of them. A part of this was due to the compulsion of their contract, but, more than anything else, it was their inherent desire to be whole again the resulted in the two lolis shaking their heads and refusing to compromise...
