Endless Path : Infinite Cosmos

Under the guidance of Terra, though he had all of the resources Eva had given him at his disposal, Vahn was currently finishing the final touches of a large ritual spell formation. Now that he had gathered enough resources, and had watched Terra create a smaller Sub-Space orb, Vahn was trying his hand at making one of the primary orbs that would be used by everyone in the Manor. In order to make a Sub-Space orb function properly, you needed a decent affinity with both Space and Time while also having an understanding of the world around you. This included knowing the arrangement of the stars, various celestial bodies, the composition of the earth, and the location of leylines and other natural formations. Any mistakes would cause instabilities within the orb which, if set up properly, could be powered almost indefinitely without the need for much maintenance.The 'core' of the ritual formation, which would become the orb itself, was made of a crystallized form of mana almost entirely comprised of Space and Time elemental energies. Depending on the structure of the formation itself, you needed to find a proper balance between the two energies and, so that it wouldn't be unstable, you also needed to introduce various other regulating forces into the orb. Vahn was fortunate that the structure of his elemental energy itself was entirely comprised of source energy, making it incredibly versatile with every other form of elemental laws. This made the orbs he created far more stable than anything even Eva would have been able to make, even though his understanding of their structure was far removed from her hundreds of years of study.When the orb itself was completed, Vahn had managed to give it a time-dilation ratio of 6:1 while also ensuring the space inside was stable enough to allow people to stay as long as they wanted. This was another benefit of his source energy, as there was no strain on the body of whoever entered inside the orbs he created. Generally speaking, the reason why people weren't able to stay in any orb for an extended period of time was a result of the subtle differences in the laws between the orb and reality. Prolonged exposure would cause the body's internal energy to destabilize slightly, which is why a cooldown was necessary to counterbalance the effects. However, this didn't apply to the orbs created by Vahn since the source energy comprising the orb was perfectly adaptive to every other law, making it almost a perfect emulation of reality with the only difference being those made intentionally.For his orb, Vahn had used a spatial compression formation in the basic structure of the orb that radiated outwards towards the periphery of the orb. This would, in theory, make the space along the outskirts of the orb's space denser, not necessarily increasing the gravity, but making it more difficult to move and channel your body's internal energy. Increasing gravity itself was a very terrible idea since, unless your body was adapted and attuned to gravitational laws, the molecules of your body itself would become unstable under the strain of increased gravity. It wasn't a simple matter of 'resisting' and 'adapting' to the change in gravity, as you couldn't really 'strengthen' the structure of each individual cell within your body. After all, no matter how strong your muscles were, if your blood couldn't hold its shape under the gravity, you would die. This was why gravity magic was such a terrifying ability, as it was almost impossible to resist regardless of a creature's size or strength.Wiping the sweat from his brow, Vahn released a satisfied sigh as he asked, "So, is everything else ready?" Terra, standing amongst the group of onlookers, nodded her head with a smile, explaining, "Yes, I've arranged the location of all the necessary materials and changed the flow of the earth's mana within my territory so the orb will remain stable unless there is catastrophic damage done to the area around the Manor." Terra's Innates allowed her to have almost complete control over the natural energies within her dominion, the exact same kind of energy that was used to stabilize and maintain the orbs.With a contented smile on his face, Vahn said, "Thank you, Terra, you've been a big help. Now we just have to activate the orb and we'll essentially be able to compress six days worth of time for every day in the real world..." It was strange to think about but also somewhat exciting to know they would have a lot more time for things like training, the production of items, and just general recreation. Though the space within the orb was limited, unlike the seemingly 'infinite' Time-Space orbs, it was still a very beneficial training tool. Now, by the time Bell arrived in Orario, the girls would have been training in Eva's magic system for more than eight years, assuming they lived exclusively within the orb. This would give them plenty of time to reach a peak that most people in the world couldn't contend with while also having the benefit of counteracting his own 'thoughtless' actions...Now that his time with the girls had approached a year, Vahn was very aware that his influence on them had been more than anticipated. Without exception, everyone that had been the recipient of his [Hands of Nirvana], [Petting], and now [Grooming] had been irreversibly affected by his influence. It was almost like their aging had stopped for the majority of them while people like Milan had actually started to look younger. Vahn had always expected this might be the case but, after noticing that Ais, Tione, Tina, and Shizune almost hadn't changed at all, he had started to worry a little. Girls like Ais and Tione should have 'developed' a lot more in this time frame but, as it stood, neither was near the full potential they had reached in the source material.Even Tione, known for having large breasts that she often flaunted to tease her sister, had relatively modest breasts that had actually 'shrunk' slightly after they entered into a relationship. Ais still had an almost 'dangerous' appearance and, though she was a very beautiful girl, she still looked much younger than she should at this point in time. Of course, as pointed out previously, the biggest problems were Tina and Shizune, both young girls at an age where their body should be developing quickly. Shizune had originally had a very mature and borderline seductive appearance when he first met her but now, even though more than ten months had passed, she hadn't changed much at all. Tina had grown a few centimeters taller but, considering that both her mother and father had been tall for Cat People, it was very obvious her growth had also been stunted.Shaking his head to clear any negative thoughts, Vahn placed both palms on the orb and slowly began the activation process. The issue of the girls' development could be addressed with the orb and it wasn't as if any of them had actually complained about the retention of their youth. Thus, Vahn began linking together the energies contained within the orb, fusing them to the larger ritual formation that Terra had established. Since Terra's body shared the same basic energy structure as his, being comprised of source energy, there was a seamless integration between the two energies. After a few minutes had passed, the once cloudy orb had become completely transparent as a vivid expanse of 'nothing' appeared within. The only thing that existed was a flat white plane without any other features at all, something that would need to be added later once they created a residence within.In total, the creation of the orb had taken him five days, almost making the short few minutes it took to activate it seem anticlimactic. Even so, after being instigated by Haruhime, the girls that had been watching him clapped. Vahn felt slightly embarrassed but kept a smile on his face as he asked, "So, shall we go inside?" With most of the girls nodding their heads, Vahn placed his own palm on the orb, vanishing in a flash of light from the perspective of everyone watching. To those that had very good eyesight, they would be able to see an ant-sized version of Vahn now located at the center of the orb. Following after him, most of the girls that had gathered around placed their palms on the orb, the only exceptions being the goddesses. As a special exception, even Ina, Vana, and Erika had been given permission to enter, though only because Vahn would be bringing them back out shortly thereafter.After entering the orb, Vahn felt strangely comfortable, a stark contrast to how he felt whenever he immersed his consciousness into one of the Space-Time orbs. Since this was his physical body, and the surroundings were fundamentally comprised of source energy, Vahn felt like all his senses were sharper while the air contained within the orb was very refreshing, even if it was a bit cool to the touch. The temperature inside was around 20 degrees, a little colder than would be comfortable for 'normal' people. However, as none of the people that would be entering matched such a classification, Vahn expected it wouldn't be a problem. If necessary, they could just make sure the residence they built had proper insulation and central heating.A little over three minutes passed in silence before the others began to appear around him, each popping up in a flash of light every few seconds. The first to appear was, unsurprisingly, Tiona, while the last group to enter happened to be Eina, holding the hands of Ina and Vana while Erika appeared almost immediately thereafter. Everyone began looking around the vast empty space while Vahn explained, "Staying near the center is the safest place and, while it may not necessarily be dangerous, wandering outwards would make it feel like a great pressure is pressing down on your body. I'll try to put down some markers later on so, for the time being, try not to wander beyond a 5km radius. When you want to exit, you can either will it with your mind or say this phrase..."Vahn held up a piece of paper that had the word 'Effugium' written on it, meaning escape. They picked a suitable word that would have almost never been used on accident, making it unlikely anyone would mistakenly speak the word. Tiona, however, didn't seem to realize this as she questioningly asked, "Effu-gi-um~?", disappearing in a flash of light almost immediately thereafter. When she returned a few seconds later, showing a very subtle blush on her smiling face, everyone burst out into laughter while Vana unhesitantly said, "Tiona is a bit dumb, ahahahaha~." Tiona, hearing Vana's words, put on a show as if she had been betrayed, pitiable saying, "Booo, I thought we were friends, Vana...I'm not going to play with you for the rest of the day. Hmph!"Vana began flustering a bit, waving her hands as if she didn't know what to do with them before running over to Tiona and saying, "Tiona, I'm sorry! Don't be mad!" Having very similar personalities, Tiona and Vana got along very well with each other. It had actually been Tiona's assistance that allowed Vana to get closer to the animals in the forest, something Vahn hadn't actually known she was capable of. Because of her innocent nature and free-spirited personality, Tiona had always been very fond of animals and, though she was never good at things like taming, they were also very fond of her. It was to such an extent that, if she was proactively trying to interact with them, even birds would land on her outstretched fingers.While most of the girls started wandering about the area, even though there wasn't really anything to see or do, Vahn, Terra, and Tsubaki were all going over the plans for the residence they were going to build. Tsubaki was due any day now but, against the advice of Juno, continued to walk around during the day, saying it was more taxing to just lay around all day than walking around for a bit. Even so, there was always someone accompanying her while Vahn had completely cleared his schedule of any distracting events that might interfere with his ability to be nearby. This included interacting with some of the people that had been approaching him, especially the few politicians that had wanted to get to know him on a personal level.A number of Nobles had been trying to get into the Clubhouse of late, even going so far as to try and contest his claim to the land that the Clubhouse was built on. When that failed, some people started showing up trying to discuss various taxes that hadn't been paid, once again including taxes related to the property as well as the distribution of various 'luxury goods'. This too was met with resistance and, after a few behind-the-scenes negotiations, the nobles had given up...at least for the time being. In the meantime, some of the more affluent families had tried to make a similar Clubhouse for themselves, finding it was almost impossible to manage since they almost exclusively just sought benefits from each other and nobody was willing to provide quality entertainment and goods for 'free'.Vahn spent a few hours going over the designs with Tsubaki while Terra arranged the land and resources he had purchased through the shop. Much like he had done with Eva in the past, they would have to build everything from the ground up as, unlike a Spirit-Time orb, it wasn't as easy to manipulate laws to emulate the creation of land and trees. Everything in here was entirely real and, much like it would take a vast amount of energy just to use his 'Oblivion' to make small objects, it would have taken much more to fill out the entire space within the orb. Fortunately, the diameter of the orb was only 10km, meaning it would only take a few hundred-thousand OP, even if they wanted to fill up the entire area with a decent layer of dirt.Speaking of the size of the orb, there was already one group of people that had ignored Vahn's advice and wandered beyond the 5km point. Being the type that were undaunted by challenges, Ais, Tiona, and Tione had all ventured off together to explore the further reaches of the orb. They were very curious about the 'pressure' Vahn had mentioned previously and, knowing it would help them increase their strength, they couldn't help but want to check it out. After traveling beyond the 5km point, the girls noticed that there was indeed a very noticeable increase in the pressure on their bodies.Ais made a tiny frown at this point, moving her hands through space as if there was a thick liquid slowing down her movements, even though there was nothing there. As for Tiona and Tione, the former seemed very interested in the abnormal phenomenon while Tione, contrary to expectations, suddenly said, "We shouldn't go much further than this. I can already feel that is more difficult to breathe than normal and we have no idea how quickly this pressure would increase." Tiona, however, just laughed away her big sister's concerns and said, "Oh, come on, Tione! I didn't think you would get cold feet so suddenly~." Tione adopted a serious expression on her face, shaking her head in response to Tiona's words and saying, "I'm not afraid, or anything like that, I just trust Vahn. He wouldn't caution us against it if there wasn't a reason to be concerned."Hearing Tione's explanation, Ais' own expression shifted and she suddenly said, "I agree with Tione. I'm interested in this orb, but we have plenty of time to explore later...lets go back and see if Vahn needs any help." Tiona had initially been intending to rile up her sister a bit so they could explore to the edges of the orb together but, after hearing Ais also back out, Tiona just shrugged her shoulders and said, "Fine, fine, let's go back then..." Then, without Ais and Tione expecting it, Tiona kicked off at the ground as she took off running, shouting, "First to reach Vahn gets to spend the first night with him in the orb~!" Tione had a slightly taken aback face but, before she was able to say anything to rebuff her sister, Ais had already taken off like a bolt released from a crossbow.Momentarily stunned, Tione was left behind by the two girls as her own anger began to bubble up inside of her. As if something had snapped, Tione balled up both fists and said, "Graaah, you two sneaky bastards~!" Without delay, she began running after the other two with the greatest speed she could manage. It was unlikely she would pass them in normal circumstances but, with the amount of rage and indignation she felt at the moment, Tione was hoping it would allow her to at least close the distance. After all, even if she lost out on this race, Tione was certain she could still get some benefits from Vahn. However, realizing her pride was at stake, Tione somehow managed to increase her speed a little more than normal...Vahn had been in the middle of laying down the foundation of the house he was going to build while Tsubaki rested on a sofa he had set out at the side. She was laying down, making the loose kimono she had been wearing these days open up slightly to reveal her beautiful brown skin beneath. Every time Vahn would look over at her, she would grin slightly without making any attempt to hide her figure from his eyes. Vahn released a sigh at her behavior, commenting in a tone he knew she would be able to hear, "I'm looking forward to our daughter being born. Not only do I get another beautiful baby girl, but I'll also get to spend some more 'quality' time with her mother..." Sending a wink towards Tsubaki, she just laughed in response while lying lazily against the sofa.Tsubaki was already used to Vahn's attempts to tease her so she just laughed it away instead of letting him rile her up. Though she would never admit it, she was also looking forward to sharing a bed with Vahn once again since she could still vividly recall the previous times they were together. Then, thinking she could actually get a small advantage against him, Tsubaki turned her body slightly, nearly letting one of her breasts pop out of her kimono as she said, "After our daughter is born, I'll have you accompany me back to my previous workshop. Make sure to make time for it or I'll give you a punishment even your immortal body won't be able to easily recover from~."Vahn, hearing Tsubaki's somewhat icy words, couldn't help but swallow hard when he saw her predatory look. He already knew where she wanted to take him and, as he really wanted to accompany her there, simply nodded his head in response. Then, at the very next instant, just after he turned his attention back to laying the foundation, Vahn felt three presences burst into the periphery of his domain with terrifying momentum. Knowing there weren't any enemies capable of breaking into the orb, Vahn didn't panic and just turned towards the direction of the presences as he saw Tiona and Ais neck-in-neck as they charged towards him. Further beyond, looking like a demon that wanted to devour the two young girls' flesh, Tione was hot on their tails. Vahn didn't have much time to think about what they were doing, however, as Ais suddenly emitted a magical light that caused two small wings to appear at her lower back. Then, for the first time, Vahn experienced what it was like to have an Ais-shaped projectile launched toward him...(A/N: Alternate Titles: 'Ignoble Nobles','So it's official...Vahn enters 3 years before the plot starts, around 1.5 years have passed, leaving only 8.5 years left~!','Vahn-Seeking Missiles')https://bit.ly/2XBzAYu &lt;-(p.atreon link)paypal.me/EinlionDiscord Invite: https://discord.gg/Jwa8PKh

The hundred hours he spent inside the orb with Alex made Vahn feel like he had been completely refreshed. When the time for their parting came, Vahn gave his 'youngest' child a large number of books, not just pertaining to the history of Danmachi, but the history of the world Eva originated from. After all, Eva was considered one of Alex's 'Mama(s)' so Vahn wanted it to know all sorts of things about both worlds. Since there was a great deal of information on scientific developments, modern society, and the histories of both Earth, Mars, and Mundus Magicus, Vahn figured Alex would enjoy them greatly. Alex, of course, had been very excited to receive a veritable library worth of books, safely keeping them away in its pocket dimension before hugging Vahn's neck with a surprising amount of strength...After returning to the real world, Vahn found Fenrir patiently sitting at his side while Terra had returned to sunbathing on her perch. Noticing his awakening, Fenrir produced a small smile and repeated the magic words, "Welcome home, Master..." in a soft voice. Vahn smiled, lifting his body to aimlessly stare at Terra's naked form for a few seconds before turning to Fenrir and saying, "I'm home, Fenrir." She nodded her head in response, rising to her feet in the process and dusting off her skirt as she said, "I'll be in my room for a little while. Don't forget your promise with Lefiya and the others. She had been very worried about you the last few days..." Lefiya, as a result of the order he didn't know he gave her, was always paying attention to the link they shared. Other than Hestia, Fenrir, and Hephaestus, Lefiya had been one of the most affected by his emotional turmoil over the last few days.Vahn had been about to respond to Fenrir but, before he formed the words, she had already disappeared from Terra's Garden. Though he couldn't see her figure, Vahn followed the direction Fenrir had moved to with [Shundo], wondering what she was thinking about. As if answering his question, even though she didn't say anything, Terra tapped her tail against the ground. Vahn looked toward her, seeing that she had been peeking towards him with slightly parted eyes. Then, once again without saying anything, Terra just closed her eyes and pretended as if she had fallen asleep. Vahn somewhat understood what both she and Fenrir were trying to tell him so, without waiting around any longer, he used [Shundo] to make his way towards where he expected Lefiya to be...Perhaps they had arranged it previously, or just had a good understanding of his character, but Vahn found Lefiya sitting in the waiting area near his salon, dangling her legs back-and-forth with a ruminating look on her face. She didn't even react to his presence all the way up until he was standing right behind her, only coming to her senses when she detected a sudden 'shadowy' figure. With speed faster than what would be expected from a Mage, Lefiya turned around with a guarded look until she realized exactly who had snuck up on her. With a light blush on her face, she pouted by saying, "Mooooou, Master, you shouldn't sneak up on me like that~." As they were alone, and Lefiya's 'Loyalty' was now sitting at 16,439, she defaulted to her 'preferred' way of addressing him.Vahn smiled in return, sitting down on the expensive marble bench before patting the spot next to him. Lefiya, though still showing a fake pouting expression on her face, walked over and sat next to him, slightly closer than the spot he had actually indicated her to take. She even, unprompted, leaned against his arm and placed her head against his shoulder as the expression on her face slowly softened. Not minding her behavior in the least, Vahn reached his hand around and rested it on Lefiya's waist, causing her face to flush a little redder without refusing the intimate gesture.For several long minutes, the two just sat in silence with each other, enjoying the quiet atmosphere before Lefiya broke the silence as she mumbled, "Ano...I wanted to use my 'Heavy Petting Coupon'. I don't want to keep the others waiting for too long...so...ummm" According to the 'plan', Lefiya was supposed to send Vahn to the forest clearing after they were finished here. The coupon was good for an hour-long session but, expecting things might take longer, she had been given two hours by the other girls. Lefiya didn't mind just spending the entire time sitting in silence but, the longer they sat together, the more her mind began to wander to less than 'innocent' thoughts.Vahn had an amused expression on his face as he slowly brought his left hand over to lift Lefiya's chin, bringing her crystal clear dark-blue eyes into view. She had a flushed face and, even though they hadn't done anything, Lefiya was breathing a little heavier than normal. In truth, Vahn didn't think someone that had yet to reach 'adulthood' should have been able to make use of the coupon. After all, in their agreed definition of what 'heavy petting' entailed, it evolved somewhat erotic contact and, in many cases, direct stimulation of the erogenous zones. Though their age wasn't that different between each other, making it somewhat acceptable in the eyes of society, Vahn still felt a little hesitant about things.As if she could read his mind, Lefiya's blush grew steadily darker as she muttered, "Ano...I never really knew my date of birth, only the day I was dropped off at the orphanage. So...umm..." According to the date of birth documented through her stay at the orphanage, Lefiya still had a little under two months before she was supposed to be an adult. However, considering she may have been a few months old by the time she had been dropped off, Lefiya was trying to make an excuse that she was already an adult. It was a logical argument, even if it sounded like a very 'convenient' excuse to bring up in the heat of the moment. Judging by the somewhat 'blank' expression Vahn was making, Lefiya felt extremely embarrassed and couldn't help but cover her face as a result.For several seconds, Vahn wasn't quite sure what to say about Lefiya's given reason but, after considering the lengths she had gone through to assure him things were 'okay', Vahn just shook his head with a small smile as he said, "Then I guess I'll give you an early, or perhaps I should say 'late', birthday present~? I wonder why my cute little disciple wants...?" Just as Lefiya was thinking of how she wanted to respond, only managing to make a 'wawawa' sound for a while, Vahn began nibbling on her long ear. Lefiya tightly closed her eyes in response while biting her bottom lip, almost as if she were in a lot of pain but betrayed by the fact that her aura was a mixture of pink and red.There was a dark-blue ribbon tied around Lefiya's blouse that kept her collar neatly arranged in a prim and proper manner. Vahn began to pull at the edge of the ribbon as he prepared to ask Lefiya one last time what she wanted. However, before the words left his lips, Lefiya opened her eyes slightly and asked, "Can I tell you want I want as my birthday present...?" Vahn blinked, confused for a brief moment before nodding his head, urging Lefiya to continue. She bit her bottom lip hard enough that Vahn was afraid she would actually draw blood. Just as he was about to help her calm down, Lefiya drew slightly closer to him and hesitantly stated, "I want Master to order me to express how I really feel for the next hour..."Lefiya was worried that, even if she was able to go through with using the coupon, she would just freeze up as things got progressively more 'intense'. Though she might be somewhat delusional at times, she had absolutely no misunderstandings about how things might develop if she continued forward. From this point onward, there would be almost no stepping back since she would never be able to face Vahn again if she panicked and ran away. When she felt an ever so subtle fluctuation in the link between her and Vahn, Lefiya almost released a sigh of relief as a smile appeared on her face. The next moment, Vahn nodded with a firm yet gentle expression on his face as he whispered, "Lefiya...I order you to be honest with me for the next hour. Tell me how you really feel...don't keep anything hidden."For a brief moment, Lefiya felt like her mind was wandering but she hadn't actually been able to form any thoughts. It past in an instant but it was almost like a part of her mind had been 'unlocked' or, perhaps it would have been more accurate to say, 'unburdened'. All of her anxiety felt like it had melted away and, while all the feelings of nervousness were still present, Lefiya felt like they were almost illusory now. It was like Vahn, the Master she had dedicated herself to, became the only focus for her mind within the world. Lefiya felt strangely liberated as grabbed the hand her Master was using to tug at her ribbon, helping him to pull it away while staring into his expansive black pupils that seemed like they could devour her completely...In a light mutter, while continuing to stare into Vahn's eyes, Lefiya said, "I really wouldn't mind if Master ate me..." Vahn felt like a part of his 'sub-process' mind snapped but, fortunately, he was able to keep his sensibilities intact and just smiled in response to Lefiya's words. Tilting her chin up a little higher, Vahn gave Lefiya a very brief kiss on the lips before saying, "That will have to wait until next time. For now...let's take it slow and enjoy the moment..." Lefiya nodded her head but, contrary to her actions, said, "Uuuu, how regrettable...I at least want to experience something to keep me 'satisfied' until then..." Vahn, though not exactly regretting his order to Lefiya, felt like a part of his mental defenses was slowly getting broken down every time she said something outside his expectations.Before Lefiya ended up 'breaking' through his defenses, Vahn guided her into the salon since it would be embarrassing for them both if she suddenly cried out in the waiting room. Once they entered, Vahn nearly tripped when Lefiya looked around with an anticipatory look in her eyes before asking, "Master...can you undress me? I want to experience what it's like to have a man take off my clothes while looking at all my secret places..." Vahn, finding his footing, scratched the back of his head with a wry smile on his face as he said, "Sure, I don't mind." Lefiya brought her hands together and gave a radiant smile that seemed to cause the room to light up slightly as a result.What followed was Vahn removing each piece of clothing covering Lefiya's body, starting with the ribbon he had pulled loose previously. She was wearing casual clothing, consisting of a pale pink blouse that was almost white in color, a dark pink frilled skirt, white stockings, and red shoes. When Vahn pulled the ribbon free, Lefiya's breathing began to grow ragged as she watched each button of her blouse slowly peeled open by Vahn's nimble fingers. Beneath to pale pink blouse, Lefiya had on a creme-colored blouse and, the moment Vahn stared at her breasts, she said, "Master...please tell me what you think as well. I really want to know..."Considering that Lefiya 'had' to tell him what she was thinking, Vahn decided it would be somewhat unfair if he remained quiet the entire time. With an appreciative look on his face, Vahn looked at the two small bunnies contained by Lefiya's bra, commenting, "They're growing well. I think you may even be able to reach a C-Cup in the future, though I'm not entirely sure if that's possible for an Elf?" Presently, Lefiya's breasts were just cresting the peak of an A-Cup and transitioning into the territory of a modest B. With how slender her body was, they actually looked much larger than normal and, given the fair complexion of her skin, her breasts were very appealing to look at.Lefiya released a moderately hot sigh in response to his words, muttering, "I like it when Master praises my body...uuuuuuuuu~" Realizing what she said, Lefiya felt very embarrassed but, as if her entire purpose in life were to be contradictory at this moment, she simultaneously stepped a little closer, wrapping her arms around him and pressing her two small rabbits against his chest. Lefiya's breathing continued to accelerate as she said, "Master, I think your order for me to be 'honest' isn't just affecting my words..." As she was speaking, Lefiya brought her lips near Vahn's neck and released another hot sigh before trying to nibble on his collarbone.Vahn was beginning to consider if he should change the nature of his order but, once again, Lefiya was a step ahead as she said, "No, I like it like this...please don't make me change..." This time it was Vahn's turn to swallow since Lefiya's upturned and watery gaze was a very 'lethal' attack when she had her soft breasts pressed against him. Nodding his head, Vahn gently pushed Lefiya away and said, "We should hurry or you won't be able to get the full benefits of your coupon..." Lefiya's smile turned radiant as she laughed, taking on a slightly mischevious look as she slightly opened her half-buttoned blouse. Vahn finished undoing the remaining buttons, allowing the blouse to part at the sides to reveal Lefiya's thin waist and cute navel.Remembering her earlier request, Vahn smiled, tracing his finger near her navel as he said, "You know, I've always found something appealing about exposed navels. I wonder if you'll wear lighter clothing after you get your own crest later on~?" Lefiya's eyes widened slightly, not out of shock, but almost as if she was very excited by the prospect. With a happy smile on her face, Lefiya began to trace her fingers around her own abdomen with a smile, saying, "I was actually a little jealous when I saw Riveria-sama and Ryuu with their crests...since I'm Master's, I wanted something to show off to everyone else..." This time, Lefiya didn't bother to clarify her own status, outright saying she was 'his'...Doing his best not to let her words 'shake' him, Vahn nodded slightly as he softly whispered, "Having you follow this kind of order...is a very dangerous thing. I'm a little worried about the future." Lefiya giggled, grabbed Vahn's hand that had still been wandering around her navel. While stepping closer to him again, she moved his hand around to her waist, saying, "There is something Master should know about me...though I believe you've been aware of it for a long time. You see, I often get carried away in my thoughts and, though it is very embarrassing to say...I think I'm actually a little bit of a lewd girl..." As if to emphasize the fact, Lefiya's face became beet red as she guided Vahn's hand to the latch holding her skirt firmly to her waist.Without any great hesitation, Vahn flicked the small clasp, not breaking eye contact from Lefiya as the deep pink skirt fell to the ground. Now, other than an open blouse, creme colored underwear, and white stockings, Lefiya had nothing to protect her dignity. In fact, if anyone were to ask him, Vahn would have said that Lefiya looked more appealing clothed like this than if she were completely nude. As for her claim about being a 'lewd girl', Vahn was very aware of this fact so he leaned near her ear, whispering, "I know...I think, as long as you don't get carried away...the lewd Lefiya is very cute..." With his words finished, Vahn licked Lefiya's earlobe, earning a small squeak from the bashful Elf as her ears started 'wagging' up and down.Enjoying her adorable reaction, Vahn brought her face down to Lefiya's exposed collar, emulating her earlier actions by nibbling on her collarbone. Lefiya grabbed his head, almost as if she were clinging to him while stifled sounds of frustration and pleasure escaped her lips. While he was nibbling around her collarbone, Vahn let his hands wander around Lefiya's body, stroking her side with his left hand while tracing his fingers around the band of her panties, letting them slide around slightly into the silky fabric without going much further. He was, in fact, teasing Lefiya a bit while simultaneously making use of his [Grooming] skill and, while only the slightest amount, his [Hands of Nirvana].After a few minutes had passed, marked by Lefiya's body trembling as she leaned into his chest, Vahn decided to advance things a bit. Picking up her very light body, Vahn moved to a nearby sofa, explaining, "I'm making a bit of an exception by treating you in this manner, but you'll still have to wait until your 'documented' birthday before we do anything too serious. Don't worry, though, I'm going to give you a memory you'll never be able to forget..." Lefiya nodded her head, ears now drooping powerless as a wave of pleasure beat around her insides, almost like it was crashing against the shores of her rationality.Vahn sat down on the sofa, allowing Lefiya to sit in his lap with her body facing him, thighs spread as she straddled his hips. It was... an almost dangerously erotic sight, something that made Vahn doubt if he hadn't already crossed a line and was just putting on a pretense of control. Shaking his head to clear the thought, Vahn let Lefiya rest against his chest while bringing his right hand to various points around her back, infusing various different types of energy into the various pressure points of her body. While this was going on, Vahn gently stroked Lefiya's very soft, albeit somewhat small, butt. She was slowly recovering her faculties to the point where she was able to form words while also managing to loosely wrap her arms around his neck and shoulders. With an almost pained look on her face, Lefiya pitiably said, "I know...I know...but...uuuuuuu, Master, please~."Tempted as he was by her words, Vahn squinted his eyes in response to Lefiya's plea, surprising her somewhat as he softly stated, "Lefiya, that is my decision as your Master. Besides, are you doubting my capabilities...?" As he spoke, Vahn broke Lefiya from her momentary stupor as he brought his thumb near the fabric covering her left nipple, inserting a stimulating thread of energy that made her clench her teeth in an agonizingly sweet moan. When she recovered, Lefiya was breathing even heavier as she said, "Master...I'm...sorry...please...don't be mad..." In response, Vahn smiled with a gentle expression while shaking his head, bringing his hand up to move a few strands of Lefiya's golden-yellow hair as he said, "Lefiya, with how adorable you are, I'm not sure I can ever be truly mad with you. Just be patient for now, okay?"Lefiya, staring directly into Vahn's eyes with her deep blue irises covered in a layer of moisture, nodded her head and said, "Then..." This time, anticipating Lefiya's request, Vahn brought her face closer to his, sealing her lips in what would become a very long and passionate kiss. At the same time, Vahn worked his magic on Lefiya's body, allowing his fingers to dancer around as he poked, prodded, gripped, and rubbed various areas, increasing her sensitivity all the while bringing her sensual cries several octaves higher. By the time their session, which lasted well over an hour, had come to an end, Lefiya no longer had any doubts that her Master could make good on his promises...(A/N: Alternate Titles: 'The Girls' Level of Teamwork is Tier 9...','Dangerous Order...','Never Underestimate the Godhand')https://bit.ly/2XBzAYu &lt;-(p.atreon link)paypal.me/EinlionDiscord Invite: https://discord.gg/Jwa8PKh
