"This is our top-of-the-line product. If you want your man unconscious and a baby in your stomach, there is no better way." The clerk mentioned, with a bit of a blush, "It's even guaranteed to keep him up for about two weeks. Although he will be unconscious for a week."
"Yura, this is sick even for you!" Cleo claimed, dropping her jaw. Although who was she to judge. Wasnt it her and Yu Jing that was watching Sene and me?
"I have to agree. Why the hell did you even bring me?" Erza added a bit crossed she was hanging with her big sis.
"It's been a month and nothing. Desperate times call for desperate measures."
"That's right, girls. Put your man in check and give him an heir he never knew he wanted." Said Annebeth, "It's guaranteed to anyone under the realm of god, up to star-lord."
"An I thought Sitri's torment made me crazy. At this point, you are just being shameless. And how the hell is this even legal? This is literally enforcing the idea of raping men?"
"Get them before they get us!" Said Annabeth.
Nodding in agreement, I spoke, "I'll take three. Do you take cards?"
"Let me check you out then." She said.
Unable to believe her eyes, Cleo shook her head, "You are insane."
Processing all my material, I did not even bother looking at the price. It had been about a month since Yu Lans party, and the wedding money was coming through. I was loaded.
Holding the small baggage in of pills, I giggled, placing it in my Spiral Ring. Stepping out of the restaurant with a vibrant grin, the sunlight of dawn sprinkled over my cheeks.
"Shall we go home?"
"So you can rape your husband?" Shooting me a deep glance, filled with a bit of scorn, I could not help but shrug at Ezra's disdain.
"We are two consenting adults." I defended, unable to find anything wrong with what I was doing. It's just two weeks. He will probably adapt in a day or two. However, I plan on using all three at the same time. And with that divine baby-making water, a baby should be in the bag.
"Anyway, today is the day. So wait till tonight or tomorrow morning. Ezra warned, causing me actually to remember.
"Thanks, I actually forgot. We are going to meet with Asmodeus today.
Following a little close, Cleo snuck me an obvious glance. "Hey, Yura. Do you really want a baby? Are we not going to be on a battlefield?"
"Please, no more baby talk! It's so boring!" The little devil lamented—weeping invisible tears.
"Of course. While the timing isn't too great, it beats waiting for cycles upon cycles when I can get a baby now and be done with it. Why? Do you want a baby too?" I could not help but ask with sparkling eyes.
Is baby bumping a thing? Like a high-five but with the tummy? That would be badass! Baby fist bump!
"Gods no!" She defended with a heavy blush, shaking her hands wildly
"Oh, come on, I have seen the way Kurts been eyeing you. Then there is Sig, with that weaponry between his legs. I know you caught sight of that thing in Paradise. Although the child may come out a bit slow with his genes."
Cleo lowered her head while Ezra rolled her eyes, "I swear this is the last time you rope me into this. Bull shit. I had better shit to do than this!"
"Like get hit on by Einar? He is relentless. I swear, he keeps shouting the devil that will make him fall! It's so cute." I stated, ending in a manner that appeared completely different than the one Arsene and I stayed in.
It was a bit of a chore, but he had me make over a hundred teleporters around the city. Each of them leads to our house, but only if one has Abyssal Qi. He had personally encrypted it while I enhanced any feature he saw fit to add.
It was quite a busy month. And there were those damn blood smears he kept adding. He had not even told me the reason. Another reason I must drug him. Sene needs to be punished. As his wife, I need to do this.
Heading down to the basement, I quickly caught sight of a bloodstain formation with over twelves runes joined together. "Let's do this. You guys know the drill."
Holding onto my shoulders, my eyes hummed with divine power as I drew closer to the rune. Teleporting into my room, I smiled, gazing at the Azeroth, still resting.
"Hey Ez, you wanna dress Azeroth up as a girl? I think mother would pay us good money for that."
"I would rather piss Baphomet off than Azeroth. Leave him alone. Out of Baphomet and him, Azeroth is definitely the most cutthroat. Almost close to Father." Ezra explained, startling me, but I still felt rather compelled to do so.
He looks like such a cutie!
Pursing my lips, I honed in on Sene's smell. Leaving the girls to their own devices, I rushed out of the manner, watching him holding Noctem while Baphomet stared at him with a savage grin.
There was a brewing tension that shook my heart. "What is going on?"
Pulling his great ax out of the void, I shuttered, feeling the killing intent that rocked reality around me. Knowing I had entered a different dimension altogether that mirrored reality, my gaze did not leave Sene.
This spell was called Mirror Plane. One of the most powerful Circles that could allow one to battle without the worry of destroying the planet they resided on. However, it was limited in many ways.
There were no laws here. And if one remained there for more than a Dao cycle, your body would explode on itself, as the laws governing it would die.
"Shall we see how long you last?" Baphomet mocked as two small sigils appeared just above his head.
"Crest of Baphomet," I muttered a bit fearfully. Is that his Soul Crest or his Legacy Crest?
"Let's see if you can use any of your Royal Devil ability. It would be a waste of such a bloodline if you could not even use such a thing. After all, you are finally a False God."
Sene gave a smile, summoning his crest that hummed with power. "I am really looking forward to seeing what I can do. But I am more interested in the Artes of Noctem. "
Taking a single step towards Baphomet, my vision was consumed in a field of ice that seemed to swallow all of space. It was akin to a sheet of snow, halting my thoughts in a bubble of mist. I couldn't even see when the cruel lance of demonic energy struck my neck—tearing away my life force.
Blasting me off my feet and through the manner I skimmed over the land; my face, arms, legs were caught uprooting stones and wood. Blood gushed and sprayed over me as I continued, unable to slow myself down.
"The First Spell is called Frigid Mind; the second is Demonic Lance."
Spitting blood from my lips after piercing through a few hundred homes, I held my neck shimmering with gore, feeling the chill of death hum in my mind. I struggled to gulp down the blood threatening to leak; I helplessly glanced at Baphomet stepping slowly through the rubble.
"Both are Tier One Spells, used in the forgotten age. While not at God-Level, these circles are powerful enough to kill a God; One simply needs to tweak them a bit." He said as the air once again began to chill.
"Frigid Mind? Did it attack my soul?"
"You think people didn't invent ways to kill soul benders?" He mocked, "One simply needs to attack the mind directly. While less effective than the soul and slower to attack, the outcome is the same."
Rising to my feet, I snorted, narrowing my eyes as my injures began to heal at a visible rate, but he only shook his head, "Regeneration will soon become a thing of the past, boy. True Gods do not heal in battle. Divinity is too useful in the heat of battle to waste."
"Unlike Qi, you do not just suck in divinity, any which way unless you are draining your thralls or apostles of their divinity. We conserve and use it with heavy discretion unless your mortal Dao allows otherwise. But even so, it's limited. "
Condensing my sigil till it condensed into a swirling vortex of flames, burning blacker than the darkest night, another sigil appeared, causing all my spears to multiply with the identical flames around them. Turning my surroundings to ash, I chanted, making sure to add all my comprehension in.
"Hellish Flame Spear!"
Casting an almost endless massive ray of hellish flame towards Baphomet, an almost invisible vortex appeared, shielding him from danger. The ground itself had all but turned to an inferno that could kill any false god, but Baphomet was fine.
He smiled, but I was not one to remain star-struck. Charging at him, with all I had, the ground shattered as I appeared a few meters away, heaving my spear towards his eye.
Slapping Noctem away, a field of embers filled my vision, but I would not let up. Raining a folly of strikes towards Baphomet. The echoes of thunder fired off in quick succession, but to no avail.
Pushing forward Baphomet, met me up close and personal. Grinning savagely, his fist came crashing up towards my chin. I could feel all of space tear. I could hear the howls of wind and the twisting of Dao. Death was about to follow.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!!!
Bathing me in my blood, I held onto Baphomets fist, watching the demon savagely grinning from ear to ear. Meeting his smile with mine, he spoke."This is the peak power of what a Royal Devil can do. You are coming along, but you are not quite there."
Glancing down at my skinless arm, I did not groan or whimper in anguish. Not in this battle, not against a demon like Baphomet. Demons grew with battle, and this is what I needed. Not some meat sack that couldn't last more than a minute.
Twisting Noctem towards his neck, I quickly gave up on the Dao of Illusion against the Demon of the Nines; he was too intelligent and proficient in Dao to be tricked. I needed precision, skill, and a plan.
Humming with profound darkness, a misty flame shimmered like flames from my spear, cutting through the air, as Baphomet dodged my strike towards his neck.
Cleaving his ax towards my head in a fluid reaction of skill, two sudden crests appeared. Unable to tell what type of circle it was, the Sigil of Noctem, and the Abyss, appeared at the tip of my spear.
Howling with a resonance, I never knew about the Path of Abyssal Night, coiled around me, as four brilliant, almost holy flashes of light struck me, or at least tried.
Stinging my flesh with its lock trying to tie me down, I watched four golden swords of pure, holy energy being blocked by an almost ethereal barrier around me.
"Fascinating! you can ignore anyone at False God in the bed of chaos, royals would have to use full attacks to cut through your skin, and now there is this barrier."
Somewhat bewitched, I glanced at the smile of Baphomet, feeling my heart begin to quiver; I staggered back by the beastal smile upon his face.
"Show me your Royal Blood, ability. My Legacy Crest changed my ability, but I am curious what your's is."
A little hesitant, I glanced down at the spear within my hand and the two sigils humming with power. Taking a deep breath, a sharp whisper entered my soul. It was soft and quick, but its words shook my heart.
"The Weave belongs to Zariel, The Heart of Man, Lucifers, and The Heavens, Aurelia." It uttered, startling me.
Shrouding the mirrored world in smoldering darkness that smelt of the Abyss, my breath grew ragged, and my mind cloudy.
"Tenebrae," I whispered.
"Devil, you are no more, their abilities remain, but you are so much more. Show the Realm, the ability born of your blood. Show me, my child, your darkness, Show me, my Shadowfell."
Arching my hands high, a crackle thundered through Baphomet's domain. Cracking the mirrored Realm. Noctem howled, shaking with the screams of Sitri, and Yeshamiel, while the name upon my spear radiated a light that withered life.
Turning my gaze to Baphomet, my world turned to a string of weaves twisting back and forth. My very body had all but transformed, turning me into my abyssal form.
"What does it do?" Baphomet asked. But I could see it, the fear within the weave brewing like a withering ember.
"Freedom. In this domain, everything I do will be without price. Any spell, ritual, or Arte, are mine to use without divinity or worry of something being paid." I muttered, absentmindedly falling to my knees as blood rained for my nose. "I am not even bound by death. so is the power of the Nines, the Night, and the Abyss."
"This is the ability of a Shadowfell."
