Though Wu's disposition gave the impression she would enjoy a rougher experience, Vahn decided to go with the gentle yet methodical route instead. There were a number of reasons for this but the most important thing was to subvert Wu's expectations. She 'expected' him to treat her roughly, so, instead of behaving like a wild beast, he introduced her to a world of pleasure one systematic step at a time.
"Lesson five...aftercare..."
After gently yet thoroughly ravishing the befuddled monkey girl's body, Vahn used cleaning magic to rid her of the evidence of their lovemaking before wrapping her up like a burrito using a series of heated blankets. At the same time, he drastically lowered the surrounding temperature so her head and face would be cool while her body retained the warmth it had accumulated during sex. Then, a version of himself remained at her side while another split off to prepare a meal.
Following the departure of the second Vahn with her eyes, Wu was glad she hadn't chosen to make use of her clones partway through the experience. Her intention would have been to prove she was more woman than he could handle. Instead, she would have simply increased the number of people he had to bully...
Exhaling a sigh of relief, Wu's body tensed when Vahn issued a light chuckle and asked, "Did I just hear the most fearless woman in Heaven exhale a sigh of relief? How peculiar..."
Shrinking into the blankets Vahn had wrapped around her body, Wu's only response was a grumpy, "Shut up...". This elicited another chuckle from Vahn, but, unlike the previous one, it was completely silent due to a makeshift magical barrier. He also disguised it by snuggling closer to the petite and pouty monkey, his left hand resting on her abdomen so he could assist in the gradual conversion of Source into Heavenly Qi.
Though she couldn't sense Source, Wu could feel Vahn circulating her energy through her body. In many ways, this was even more intimate than having sex, as, depending on the nature of the person manipulating your energy, they could cripple you on a whim.
Prior to meeting Vahn, Wu never had to worry about such things. Her Qi Network, energy channels, and meridians were even more indestructible than her body. The Gods of the Heavenly Domain had once attempted more than 72,000 methods to try and execute her, but, no matter how painful their methods were, she managed to persevere and get her revenge by pestering and pranking them at every opportunity.
Now that she had finally met someone with the ability to harm her, Wu couldn't help feeling giddy as Vahn circulated her Qi with a finesse she would be hard-pressed to emulate. It was almost like he understood the structure of her body better than she did...
As that thought crossed Wu's mind, so too did the memories of Vahn's slow and steady invasion of her body. She had expected him to forcibly pry her open with his gargantuan penis, but, after more than an hour of foreplay, her body had basically invited him in. Then, over a period of time that was difficult to grasp, her insides slowly changed to accommodate him...
"I'm starting to understand why you turned Nezha down...if she had endured something like this, I don't think her manly facade would have lasted. Her relationship with Bing Bing would also come to an end as there's no way in hell that bottom brat could match up to...whatever the hell you want to call this..."
Though she was tempted to call it lovemaking, the words got caught in Wu's throat. She refused to believe she had fallen in love after putting up a strong front and effectively forcing Vahn to become her sex friend/fuck buddy. Now, even if Vahn was the one to confess, she would probably tease him for being sentimental...
Exhaling yet another sigh, Wu was relieved when Vahn didn't comment on it. Instead, he just kissed the top of her head. This reinforced just how considerate the man was, so much so that Wu found it difficult to believe he was actually a Pure Blooded Dragon...

While waiting along the outskirts of the Heavenly City, Vor's attention was caught by an inordinately large white raven. Upon nearing her, it promptly transformed into a lovely, twin-tailed girl with pure white hair, grey-blue eyes that appeared to be able to penetrate all of creation, and a pristine white dress that resembled a wedding gown.
"Lady Muninn..."
Kneeling the moment the markedly shorter woman appeared, Vor lowered her head in respect as Muninn, better known as the White Raven, adopted a slight smile and said, "It's been quite a while since I last departed the South. This had better not be a waste of time..."
Without raising her head, Vor explained, "Though I was unable to confirm the abilities of the Sage Dragon directly, his subordinates are strong enough to go toe-to-toe with the strongest members of the Heavenly Domain. One of them, Mikoto Mason, was even able to manifest an ability similar to the End Emptiness..."
Tensing the moment she heard the familiar name, Muninn's pupils contracted to fine points as she asked, "Are you absolutely certain...?"
Though it was impossible for Vor to lie to her, Muninn simply couldn't believe the Valkyrie's words. End Emptiness, also known as the Wind of Decadence, was the sobriquet of the most terrifying Last Embryo in existence. It was the manifestation of pure nothingness, a paradoxical non-existence that rendered even Divinity completely meaningless.
Instead of answering with words, Vor simply nodded her head. She had once encountered the End Emptiness prior to the destruction of the original Little Garden, so, while members of the younger generation might not recognize it, she would never forget the existential dread that accompanied staring into the void of nothingness.
Inhaling a sharp breath, Muninn stared at the outer walls of the Heavenly City with uncharacteristic trepidation in her gaze. For a brief moment, she found herself seriously considering initializing the Gungnir Protocol, an apocalyptic weapons system that the White Raven Community had spent the last three hundred years developing. It existed in the form of tens of thousands of orbital platforms that hovered just below the barrier surrounding the Divine Realm.
When activated, the Gungnir Protocol could be used to strike any location within the Little Garden with inviolable precision and remarkable destructive potential. It was intended to be a trump card to be used against the Demon God's Army, but, now that she had learned of the existence of a being capable of weaponizing the End Emptiness, Muninn was seriously considering its use against Vahn and Mikoto...
Fortunately, for everyone involved, Muninn lacked the authority to initiate the Gungnir Protocol at her leisure. The only reason the Norse Faction had been authorized to construct such a ridiculous weapon system was to combat the threat of the Demon God. If they attempted to use it as a means to pressure or eliminate their enemies, the rulers of the Little Garden wouldn't hesitate to destroy it.
Understanding this, it didn't take long for Muninn to suppress her destructive instincts. Instead, she attempted to be optimistic, asking, "What are your impressions of the Sage Dragon? Is he someone we can work with...?"
Though she now had a deeply ingrained fear of Mikoto, Vor still nodded in response to Muninn's question, answering, "It would appear his title of Sage is not without merit. Despite being a Pure-Blooded Dragon, he exudes a calming aura reminiscent of the World Tree. He was also quick to come to the aid of others. So long as we approach him with sincerity, I don't think he would refuse us..."
"Sincerity..."
As the meaning of sincerity differed from person to person, a thoughtful expression developed across Muninn's face. She knew very little about Vahn, but, based on Vor's testimony, she could assume he was either a truly benevolent or an extremely machinating individual. Either way, she needed more information regarding his wants and needs if she was going to cut a deal with him.
"Your report mentioned the Sage Dragon's willingness to engage in a flirtatious exchange. What is the probability of seducing him?"
Shaking her head, data points began to flash across Vor's eyes as she answered, "While the chances of bedding him are quite high, I don't think it can be used as leverage. If my analysis is correct, even the insinuation of such an exchange might offend him..."
"Oh? You make it sound as though he is promiscuous yet principled..."
Raising her head, Vor's expression resembled a lake on a windless night as she clarified, "There is a 93.057% probability he possesses a Divinity related to Sex."
Understanding what Vor was trying to say, an exasperated sigh escaped Muninn's throat. Gods of Sex regarding physical intimacy in the same manner others might regard a casual conversation. It was possible to 'convince' them by making a concerted effort, but, unlike the majority of men and women who could be swayed with promises of pleasure, they were the source of such emotions. In other words, it was almost impossible to entice a God of Sex with Sex unless you possessed an even greater Divinity...
"Well, at least that gets us in the same room as him..."
Fortunately, while it might be difficult to leverage sex against them, sex was still a convenient tool against Gods of Sex. Unless they had a reason to refuse, most wouldn't even think to turn down the opportunity to bed a member of the opposite sex. Thus, so long as you had the stamina to keep up with them, you could virtually monopolize their attention. There were even instances of Gods of Sex being imprisoned for years just because their Divinity made it impossible for them to be the first to quit...
Raising her brows, Vor was surprised to feel a faint giddiness in her abdominal region. She doubted a Dragon Slayer such as herself would be appointed the task, but, rather than feeling disgusted by the notion of bedding one of her mortal enemies, she actually felt excited. She didn't know if it was because of the nostalgic aura that exuded from his body or because he had casually dismissed her offer to do battle. Either way, she still wanted a piece of him...
"I will send a message to Sigrun and ask her to deploy Hrist. Until then, you will keep an eye on the Sage Dragon. If the opportunity presents itself, see if you can join the Sage Dragon's Hearth. Even if we're unable to act against him, we might be able to leverage his support by discovering one of his weaknesses. Can you handle this?"
Restraining a sigh at the mention of Hrist, Vor disguised her disappointment by lowering her head and answering, "Of course. I am the Spear of the Allfather. If anyone is qualified to penetrate enemy lines, it is I..."
As she had literally been deployed to the Heavenly Domain for this exact reason, Vor was confident in her ability to become a member of the Sage Dragon's Hearth. There was absolutely nothing she wasn't willing to sacrifice in the pursuit of her mission, so, unless Vahn simply refused to accept new members, convincing him to let her join was a small matter.
Nodding her head in approval, pure white wings emerged from Muninn's lower back as she said, "I have absolute confidence in your capabilities. Even so, I wish you the best of luck, Vor Valkyria. May the Blessing of the Allfather keep you safe in the trying times to come..."
Since it might cause problems if she lingered in the Heavenly Domain for too long, Muninn directed her gaze toward the intent observing her in the sky before offering a polite bow. The Jade Emperor had been closely monitoring their conversation from the very beginning so she was obligated to at least acknowledge him before reverting back to a white raven and flying away. After all, she was the Leader of a 4-Digit Community. It would be quite the faux pas if she trespassed his territory without greeting him...
