Chapter 98 - Body of Gold
🕑 Added 2018-05-31 22:15:16 +0000 UTC Others SideThe gathered citizens, as well as most survivors of the garrison of Kairaki, stand and listen as Mereana holds a hastily improvised speech in regards to the future of the kingdom. With the death of the God King and most of his staff, the door has been opened for profound changes in this nation. Among the first things she addresses is the abolishment of slavery.
Kouratua can tell that she doesn't possess the qualities to lead a nation. Aurelia told him to watch over and help her, as he has done many times during his long life with various leaders. He just hopes that she will turn out better than the last queen several generations of man ago.
Suddenly, the people in the courtyard point up and murmurs grow louder. The God of Gold turns around to see that a drop of the sun seems to have fallen to the land of man. A radiant figure floats down to the middle balcony and disappears from view. The occurrence seems to be taken as an omen of good fortune, but Kouratua knows that it was Areteniha, God of the Sun, who had finally been called down by her child.
Shortly after, as Mereana successfully resumed her speech, another wave of surprised voices runs through the people. This time, it's caused by a bloating mass that grows from the middle balcony. It takes the form of what the rebel gods first arrived on, the flying, flesh-colored monstrosity the one known as Chaos can turn into.
"[They are departing now?]" Mereana exclaims in shock and looks up.
"[It would seem so.]" Kouratua replies with a glance above.
"[I have not had the opportunity to say goodbye!]" The former slave attempts to run inside the pyramid to climb upstairs, but the golden god stops her.
"[Don't forget who you are now. You can't just leave in the middle of addressing the people.]" He speaks in an imploring tone, trying to sound helpful rather than commanding.
"[But-]" As expected, she attempts to protest, but Kouratua shakes his head. Over time, she will have to learn how a monarch acts, but for now, he will have to guide her.
"[You have a duty to fulfill. If fate wills it, you'll see them again.]" With these words, he gestures towards the balcony from which she has stepped away. Voices among the citizens grow louder asking for where their new queen has disappeared to. "[Your people need you now]"
Mereana's flustered expression changes at these words. She understands her newfound responsibilities and throwing it away just to say a proper farewell would be the height of foolishness. These people helped her get to this place, so the right way to honor them would be to do what she set out to do when she asked them for their help.
It's as Kouratua said; she will see them again if fate wills it. Until then, she has to try her best and make this kingdom into a better place.
"[Thank you for everything...]" She mutters towards the Chaos carrier and then turns back to the balcony, waving at her people to calm them down.
Chaos Side
I look down at Mereana and Kouratua from the bridge of the Chaos carrier. The golden god is by her side to hopefully right her wrongs - of which she will most definitely commit many during her reign. Aurelia has assured me that he's very competent and that he has mentored many politicians before.
"What's your relationship with him anyway?" I turn around and ask the golden girl, who raises an eyebrow at me.
"Hm, are you jealous?" She replies with a jab at my wording. It's not what I meant, though I'm sure I won't have to be worried about that anyway. Still, I'm quite interested to hear why she was hidden inside his body.
"Of course I'd be jealous if you were with a man while I'm not around." I walk over to her and caress her cheek while speaking with an ironic undertone. She doesn't avoid this intimate contact and actually seems to revel in it, as she closes her eyes.
"What would you say if I felt the same way?" Aurelia opens her golden eyes and stares at me with an unprecedented intensity. She glances sideways at Tokomaha, who's sitting on a chair made from my body and watching us with a frown.
Uh-oh. I got two tsundere on board now. One is more honest with her romantic feelings, while the other is quite open in regards to her carnal desires - with some help. Maybe there's a way to reconcile these two and have them learn from each other? But I have to address this sooner rather than later; I don't want them to quarrel while on board of the Chaos carrier.
"Well, I would tell you that you will have to learn to live with it." It's the only thing I can really say here. I won't lie to her and deflecting the issue is pointless. "You see, I just have too much love in me."
"I see. So, this is how it feels." Closing her eyes once again, Aurelia seems to have come to a conclusion. She steps up to me and puts a hand on my chest. "I have known the day I first met you."
"That means-" I begin, but she pulls me down by the front of my shirt - which is part of my body.
"Do not dare to turn to another, when you are with me. That is the one rule I impose on you, Chaos." With these words, she presses her lips to mine once again, as a continuation of what she did in the throne room earlier. Now that I'm not under the stress of a life and death battle, I have the time to notice that her motions aren't awkward like a beginner's. She has at least some experience in this, huh?
When we separate, I see everybody stare at us. Tokomaha's gaze is one of obvious disapproval, and Awhina looks excited; she's at the age where she would want to try this herself.
"I guess this isn't the best time to be asking if you would accept a threesome with a certain other girl here, huh?" I quip and instantly receive a resounding golden slap in the face.
"Come to my room after this." Aurelia states with a deadpan expression and walks away, out of the bridge. I stare at her shiny departing backside while blinking in confusion. Did she just...?
"[Ohhh, mama is getting some later!]" Uten and Saten cheer and whistle. I didn't teach them to act like that, so where did they pick those manners up from?
"[Oh, is that what this was about? Way to go, Chaos.]" Korenga joins the cheering after grasping the contents of my exchange with the golden girl. I instantly understand whom my children got their behavior from and shoot a glare at the Black God.
"[What do you mean by 'getting some'?]" Awhina asks innocently. She's the very image of a sheltered village girl, though I had assumed that growing up in such a small village with its open architecture would have given her enough opportunities to learn about such things. Maybe it's just the wording she doesn't get.
"[It means that Chaos and that golden butt will-]" Korenga starts to explain, but I quickly create a tentacle from the side of the wall and cover her mouth with it. I half-expect that she'll bite through it to continue talking, but apparently she gets the hint and stops.
"[Let's go, we're drawing too much attention away from Mereana's speech.]" I point outside the translucent membrane window. The citizens of Kairaki gathered in the palace courtyard are listening to her intently, but I use this as an excuse to change the subject.
With this, I increase the heat of the fires in the large balloon while pushing the Chaos carrier off the ground, and we take off. Awhina and my children are here because I decided to at least carry them to the port town of Whakara two days away, where they'll get themselves a boat. Tahiri said she would make the whirlwind guide them home, though I'm a little worried that she might be talking about her daughter Aratio.
Though I do wonder why Uten and Saten don't transform into dragons and fly back.
Looking down at Mereana and the golden god one last time, I activate the boosters, and we begin to gain altitude while flying across the city. Normally, the group of heroes would stay a day or two for celebrations, and then finally depart with the entire city cheering on their way out. But that's only for when they actually saved the world. This wasn't a battle against an evil overlord set on destroying the world, though.
Well, in a way it was. But nobody knew until we actually faced him at the very end. Now, Mataku is still at large, and all that changed was the leadership of Adanak. While I'm sure it'll move towards a better future, in my eyes, it's not something worth celebrating over. We didn't really win after all.
For now, I just want to get back home and claim the throne of the Dominion. Areteniha told me that she would teach Aorutihaua how to get there and let them lead us across the sea. Through my conversation with the God of the Sun, I couldn't glean what her child's gender is, and it's still irking me now. If I don't find out during our next conversation, I'll ask her directly.
Now that things are settled, I need to pay Aurelia a visit in her cabin. I'll make sure to slow the ship down so that we fly through the night - even though a distance of two days on foot can be traversed in just a few hours on the Chaos carrier. This is a long-awaited moment, to be able to finally seal the deal with the golden girl.
We fly towards the setting sun and leave the capital of Adanak behind us.
"I didn't expect that you would invite me." I close the cabin door behind myself and look at Aurelia. She's lying sprawled out on the bed in all her naked glory. I've seen her like this for a long time while we were on the moon, and today she's been walking around this way, too. All this time, I haven't been especially attracted to her, because rather than enticing, it has simply been casual nudity.
What I see before me now is meant to stimulate carnal desires. The golden girl's posture radiates eroticism, and when she raises her hand to wave me over, my libido overflows. But I hold myself back from jumping straight onto her; this woman is a queen, and I need to act in a manner befitting of her status. The golden body illuminated by the fading sunlight falling into the cabin through the small window is a picture of perfection.
She is art.
"Impressive. I expected you to jump on me like the beast you are." Aurelia teases me with a smug smile.
"Be careful. This beast is a trickster." I reply with a grin and let tentacles grow from the bed, with which I bind her arms and legs. "Feels familiar, doesn't it?"
"This is all made from your body then?" Unlike last time, she doesn't struggle against the restraints - although I'm keeping them loose on purpose - and looks around the room, then glances at the cord coming from my head, connecting to the roof.
"Yeah, I've improved quite a bit during my time apart from you." Walking over to the bed and climbing onto it, I lean over Aurelia. She looks at me with a straight gaze, no hint of nervousness or even fear in them; there is a notion of anticipation, although overall she gives off a dignified feeling rather than one of suppressed eagerness. She's going into this with full knowledge of what is going to happen.
It's a strange feeling. So far, I've always reveled in the uneasiness and fear of the unknown that my partners have felt towards me, even after having experienced it with me several times. Aurelia is unlike any of them, showing me that she's going to be my equal in this.
I undo the restraints - even though they were weak enough that she could have just raised her arms and legs to free herself from them - and put a hand on the golden girl's cheek. As if she read my mind, she doesn't look surprised that I retracted my tentacles. A small part of me feels a hint of irritation at the fact that she always seems to be in control of her emotions, and it wishes to see the raw feelings she displayed when I showed her my real face back when we clashed.
The overwhelming majority of my being wants to rise to the occasion and be with her as an equal. I would feel inferior if I just let my desires run rampant - unless she said the word and wanted me to do so.
Aurelia puts an arm around my neck and pulls me down towards her. Her lips touch mine and all my unnecessary thoughts are blown away; we're here to make love, so there's no need to over-think things. I respond to the third kiss she was the one to initiate today and just go with the flow.
How is she so soft to the touch? How does she produce saliva and body heat? How does she have all of that when her body is actually made of solid gold?
Those questions don't matter now. We're embracing each other, feeling the other's skin with our own, and our bodies are those of simple human beings as we seek warmth and intimate togetherness.
I could easily sprout many appendages and grow a man's member like I always do with Tokomaha, but it would feel out of place here. With Aurelia, I want to remain true to my former human self, just like she's holding onto hers by choosing this form despite having the freedom to become anything she wants to be.
"To think I would lie with you..." When we separate for a moment, Aurelia mutters with a wry smile. When we first met, we tried to kill each other. In fact, I wanted to torture her to death for almost killing Hestia, but when I was shot into space, she was the only person by my side for several days in absolute nothingness. The absurdity of it all resulted in us two forming a strange relationship at first, which solidified into friendship - or more - on the moon.
"After our rocky start, I wouldn't have thought it either." Guiding my fingers along her cheek down the neck and across the collarbone, I reply. Well, I did somewhat force myself on her while we were floating in space, but I never went all the way. And when she became my teacher in magic later, there wasn't anything more than some light physical intimacy such as using her heavenly thighs for lap pillows.
"Yet, here we are." Aurelia pulls me in again and initiates our fourth kiss. For some reason, it feels quite different with her than with anybody else. She's the first one to proactively seek me out and steer things her way, even while she's lying at the bottom.
Just as I think this, she separates from me and pulls me to the side, before quickly climbing on top. For a second I'm completely blindsided by the maneuver and blink at the situation. The erect tips of her modest mounds brush past mine and send a shiver across my skin. Then she holds down my wrists and brings her lips to my neck.
An electric shock runs through my body at this unfamiliar sensation, and I let go of my voice.
Wait, isn't this the first time something like this is happening to me? Every single time I've been the one in control, even when it was mutual pleasuring. Aurelia is single-handedly taking the reins this time, and it's a complete surprise to me. So this is how it feels?
I like it.
But I can't just remain passive, so I try out freeing my arms lightly. However, the golden girl on top of me keeps her grip strong, signaling me that I should let her take the lead. I kind of expected that she wouldn't be the type to let things happen to her one-sidedly like Tokomaha seems to be; I didn't expect that she wants to be the one who makes things happen to others one-sidedly, though.
Aurelia moves down from my neck and across my collarbone, sending waves of pleasure through my body and into my brain. I'm in a human body right now, so I have all the senses of one. When her lips brush across my skin, and she moves down between the large mounds on my chest, I breathe in sharply and suppress a shudder.
Slowly, I become intoxicated by the sensation of being on the receiving end, and my body switches from relaxation between shivers of pleasure to tensing up repeatedly, whenever Aurelia finds another erogenous zone. She slowly moves down my body, and lets go of my wrists, but all I do is run my fingers through her golden hair as she passes my navel.
I'm enjoying this more than I imagined. In a way, I could view this as me making her do this as a service to me, but I'm not averse to the thought that she's somewhat dominating me right now. While the former is especially exciting when I consider that a queen is working her way between my legs with her mouth, the latter is very fitting for her attitude towards me.
Then any thoughts about this bizarre situation are blown away when her tongue finds its way to my most sensitive spot. The shock running through my body makes me breathless, and I try to push her head away from me. But she doesn't budge and takes my reaction as a sign that she did something right. Intensifying her assault, she doesn't give me any room for relaxation.
My back arches as she purses her lips and sucks on my bud, before separating from it with an audible smack. It seems that Aurelia knows exactly what she's doing because she just barely stopped short of giving me a climax. Instead, she runs her tongue across my inner thigh and massages the back of my knee, to hold my arousal but giving me a little room to cool down at the same time.
"You're incredible." I breathe and look down to her. She returns my gaze with an intense golden one of her own. Her expression makes it clear that she must be enjoying giving me pleasure just as much as I am enjoying being pleasured. I know that feeling very well myself.
Then she moves up my thigh and brings her tongue to my folds, where my love juices have already begun flowing. Apparently, she decided that my being able to talk was enough rest. But now she's getting down on my treasure hole, inserting her tongue just enough to tease my opening, before twisting it and advancing deeper inside.
At the same time, she brings her hand around and presses her thumb on my button. Once again, my back arches from the sensation, and I can feel my toes curling as I claw at the bed sheets made from my own body. But this time, she doesn't let off and sends me well and truly over the edge. I can't control my voice and am surprised to hear my high-pitched whimper, as my lower mouth ejects a spray of clear liquids straight into Aurelia's face.
Instead of angering her, she takes it as a sign that I'm enjoying it immensely, so she continues to drill her tongue into my depths. Then, I suddenly feel a new sensation as something enters my rear entrance. My surprise is so great that I accidentally forget to try and hold on. The full strength of a second climax overcomes me and my entire body quakes.
That means the entire Chaos carrier is shuddering.
The mood immediately plummets as we're both shaken out of our lovemaking and look around while our bodies are frozen in place. I'm sure everybody felt that as well, though they all know what I'm doing anyway. But since we're so high up in the air, doing something too exciting might be a little dangerous. Then again, aside from Awhina, nobody would get seriously hurt if they fell, and I'm sure my children can catch her in time.
"It would seem that your improvements are not as great as you think." Aurelia wipes her face and looks me in the eyes with a smug expression that would normally make me want to turn the situation around on her. But right now, I'm checking through my entire body to make sure that everything is alright. If the flame-outlets in the balloon go haywire, I could end up a fireball after all.
"Cut me some slack. You wouldn't be able to control yourself if you were in my position." I reply, realizing what I just implied.
"Hm, in what position?" The golden girl kisses my inner thigh and teases me with this question. Obviously, she would pick up on it.
"It just felt that great." But I have no problem admitting it. She doesn't seem surprised at my openness and lifts herself up to approach my face again.
"Then shall we continue?" Our noses are less than an inch apart when she asks me with a straight face. She's the definition of a cool beauty, and I can feel my heart skip a beat.
"Of course." I reply and initiate a kiss with Aurelia for the first time. We share in a heartfelt embrace, and our bodies become entwined. One hand runs down her back while another feels its way towards her modest chest. Hers are only barely bigger than Tokomaha's, even though she not only looks but is actually much more mature than the latter.
Then I quickly reverse our positions and push her down on the bed. Now it's my turn to give her a taste of my techniques. She doesn't fight back and looks up at me, her expression filled with so much warmth and affection that I'm completely overwhelmed. I didn't expect that she could make such a face.
My heart is set aflutter, and I press my lips onto hers, feeling her overflowing love and letting her feel mine.
"[Seems to have been a pretty good night.]" Korenga comments when we assemble on the bridge the next morning. As expected, she doesn't care about tact.
"[It was.]" I glance at Aurelia. She neither gloats nor acts shyly, instead considering our sensual encounter last night par for the course. I really appreciate her dignified attitude and feel that it's something I can learn from her.
"[Hey, you!]" Tokomaha comes forward and points at the golden girl. "[Chaos is mine!]"
I stare at the little goddess in surprise. Don't tell me she'll try and challenge her for sole possession of me, even though our relationship has mostly only been about using each other for pleasure - with me dominating her rather than it being a mutual thing. If she were more open with her feelings, it could certainly develop into more, but for now, Aurelia has the edge over her in that area.
"[Is that what Chaos herself says?]" The golden girl turns to me and asks with a sardonic smile. Leave me out of this, oi!
"[Well, if you were more honest with yourself, we could be more than sex-friends.]" There, I said it. And Tokomaha stares at me dumbfounded. Then her face flushes red, and tears appear in the corners of her eyes, as her lips quiver because of her lack of words.
"[Chaos you idiot!]" She slaps me in the face and runs out of the bridge. I have not the shred of a doubt that with this she's trying - and failing - in her own way to invite me to her room later just like Aurelia did yesterday. She forgot to say it, though.
"[Ahhh, you made her cry.]" Korenga teases me with a smirk. It was her fault, to begin with, for mentioning what we did last night. Though I guess I'm mostly to blame. I mean, yeah, I'm in the wrong here...
I'll go and pay her a visit later.
But first, we're approaching the harbor city of Whakara. When we land, there'll be a pretty big farewell. Here, Awhina and the twins will leave the party to return to Aoranam and Ototawa, whereas I'll be taking Tahiri, Tokomaha, Korenga, and Aurelia to the Demon Continent.
This will be the first time I'm consciously leaving people behind, rather than being separated from them by force.
