Endless Path : Infinite Cosmos

With every second in the [Time-Dampening Orb] equating to fourteen seconds within the projection, Vahn's short moment of introspection actually translated to several minutes outside. As a result, Ilya had already emerged from her incubation chamber by the time he emerged from the orb. She could be seen sitting down, inspecting the changes in her body with an incredulous look on her face as, compared to the last time she saw herself, she was effectively a different person.Sensing Vahn's movement, Illya snapped her head in his direction, her violet eye staring back at him in a somewhat eerie manner. Then, realizing he was watching her, she quickly hid her hands behind her back, a heavy flush on her face as she murmured, "I...I wasn't doing anything..."Hearing her words, Vahn was tempted to laugh but, knowing it wouldn't end well for him, he elected to just nod his head. In the next moment, his body flickered, creating an after-image that released a small pop as it vanished. Despite this burst of speed, Illya's eyes were able to follow his movements with considerable ease, a testament to the fact that her fusion with Cath Palug had greatly elevated her senses, far exceeding even super-human levels.Since she could easily follow his movements, Illya wasn't surprised by Vahn appearing next to her in what seemed like an instant. Instead, her tail flickered in a manner similar to a frustrated squirrel as she scrunched up her naked body in a futile attempt to conceal it from view. When Vahn reached out to pull her up, however, she offered no resistance, allowing him to lift her into a princess carry in one swift motion.Though she was pressing for this exact development, Illya's heart felt like it was fighting to free itself from her chest. She did her best to entice and seduce Vahn but, at the very core of her character, she was an incredibly bashful, albeit somewhat perverted, girl. Now that things had reached this point, it felt like all the blood in her body was rushing to her head while, in the back of her mind, Cath Palug was excitedly shouting, 'Go, go, let's go~!'.Fortunately, while she was overwhelmed by her emotions, to the point that a small trickle of blood had emerged from her left nostril, Vahn was carrying Illya to a place where they could have a higher degree of privacy. She should actually able to create a private Realm for them, as this was one of the inherent abilities of Tier 5 beings, but Illya wasn't exactly in the proper state of mind for such things.---After a brief scan of the entire Ivory Castle, Vahn ultimately decided upon Illya's former room as his final destination. They had a lot of shared memories there and, though Illya would be moving into the Menagerie in the near future, that didn't mean her former room would go to another. Rather, it would be a sanctuary she could retreat to whenever she didn't want to be around others. One where only he, her mother, and a select few others, each chosen by Illya, could enter...Immediately after their teleportation, Illya's eyes peeled open to take in the familiar surroundings of her own room. Knowing this was where she would experience her first time didn't calm her heart in the slightest. Her past memories came flooding forward: intimate moments with Vahn, heartwarming moments with her mother, and a few deviant moments with herself, alone, things that could never be spoken out loud...Before Illya could offer any input on his choice of venue, Vahn surprised her by nibbling on the point of her fluffy white ear. Though common sense told him to avoid any kind of biting, past experiences had made it perfectly clear there was no sense in avoiding the inevitable. Illya's body was already reacting properly but she still needed a small push to get in the proper state of mind. Currently, she was in a borderline catatonic state as a result of her own thoughts so, in order to ground her to reality, Vahn seized the initiative, energy flowing through his hands and into her petite form...Having her ear suddenly bitten caused Illya's body to writhe about, completely against her will. At the same time, she felt a heat spreading through her body, clouding her thoughts and making her abdomen ache. Feeling these changes, she began to breathe heavily, the violet hue of her eyes becoming progressively more pronounced as excitement bubbled up within her like a cauldron about to boil over...Just as something began to surge up from within, Illya was slightly disoriented by the fact that Vahn suddenly placed her down on the bed. By the time a tiny fragment of clarity returned to her mind, she found herself laying with her face against the bedspread, her rear-end propped up by her knees as her tail flickered behind her...Though Illya's tail didn't actually have any bones in it whatsoever, the way it curved led Vahn to the conclusion it wouldn't be comfortable to lay on. He knew from experience how sensitive her tail was so, with Illya seemingly having lost herself to pleasure, he opted to rely on the position most effective for girls with tails. This happened to be one of his preferred positions so, with Illya's plump posterior, accented by how her exposed skin formed the shape of a heart, Vahn couldn't help but marvel at the sight...If she were to voice her opinion, Illya found her current position to be extremely embarrassing. In fact, she wished she could bury her face in the blankets completely but, not wanting to risk having Vahn change his mind, she actually began to waggle her butt in his direction.There was obviously no way that Vahn was going to back off after coming this far. Still, seeing the adorable antics of the fluffy-haired girl, a strong desire to pamper her sprouted from within his mind. Following this, he sank the fingers of his left hand into Illya's left cheek before using his thumb to separate her already pulsating vulva.If he didn't know it would cause her to have a minor breakdown, Vahn would have commented on the pretty pink color and how eager she seemed to be for his attention...This wasn't really an exaggeration either as, unlike a normal girl, Illya's insides almost seemed 'alive' with their peculiar pulsation. Even the color was an abnormal shade of pink, possessing a slight luminescence as it glistened in the low light of the room.Never one to disappoint his women, Vahn settled in for the long haul by taking a seat behind Illya. She was confused by his actions at first but, when he suddenly grabbed her hips and pulled them closer to his face, the only thing going through her mind was a series of expletives and the happy cries of Cath Palug. They were one and the same in this form so, despite Illya being the main pilot of the body, they experienced everything together, including pleasure and excitement.To Vahn's surprise, the somewhat swollen lips of Illya's vulva actually clung around him as his tongue sank deep into her insides. This created a small seal, followed by a noticeable suction force that proactive responded to the movements of his tongue. Her depths seemed to greet him rather excitedly, entangling with his tongue and writhing around him excitedly. It was a peculiar occurrence but, more so than the tensile sensations, Vahn was overwhelmed by the flavor and aroma invading his olfactory senses and taste buds...Though he would never voice this to the fused duo, Illya had a very 'animalistic' aroma. It couldn't really be described as pleasant but, despite this, it filled his head and caused his body to feel like it was on fire. It actually reminded him of how Nanu had marked him in the past but, compared to the rather 'tame' pheromones emitted by the mischievous Chienthrope, Illya's seemed to have some degree of sapience as they worked tirelessly to invade his body...Remembering how Cath Palug created a mist that was able to break down humans and effectively destroy the entire world, Vahn wasn't all that surprised by the pheromone attack. He even let it affect him a little bit as, in stark contrast to the somewhat pungent aroma, Illya's flavor was like warm honeydew that had been mixed together with a thin, palatable, syrup. The volume was a little nonsensical, as it was almost like drinking directly from a tap, but his ability to convert the liquid into energy ensured that his stomach was never strained by the tidal flow...As tempting as it was to just savor the moment indefinitely, Vahn ultimately pulled his mouth free after Illya's body experienced its third intense spasm. What he didn't expect was for her vulva to suddenly cling to him as he attempted to retract his tongue, thin red tendrils chasing after him as he finally extricated himself from the greedy orifice. Then, with slight intrigue visible in his countenance, Vahn watched as the returned to normal almost instantly, making it pretty obvious Illya had inherited Cath Palug's ability to shape and manipulate its body...While some might be put off by the peculiar sight, Vahn wasn't even remotely deterred. He would, at times, literally turn into a black blob in order to get an edge against foes, removing any aversion he might have had regarding Illya's ability to shape her flesh. Rather, he was more than a little interested to experience what would happen when they actually started having sex as it was pretty obvious that her insides were far more inviting than a normal person's...Tempted as he was to simply proceed to the next step, Vahn wasn't going to force Illya to stay face down during her first time. This was an important moment to them both and, while she didn't seem to mind it, he knew she would appreciate the memory more if they were face-to-face. Thus, after lightly squeezing her rump, Vahn moved Illya onto her side before pulling her to sit in his lap. This brought their faces close enough that their noses were touching; but, as if her brain had melted, Illya's head was cocked slightly as her eyes lazily moved around in their sockets.Seeing her absentminded state, Vahn realized that he had underestimated Cath Palug's influence a bit. It wasn't a creature that experienced things like arousal in a natural way since, from the moment of its creation, Cath Palug had never required such biological functions. Now, it was overwhelming both its and Illya's mind with a flood of chemicals focused entirely on pleasure. This had forced her into a state similar to a drug overdose but, as a Tier 5 entity, there was no danger of permanent harm.Realizing that sex with Illya was going to be a very experimental affair, Vahn gently caressed both sides of her face, his [Hands of Nirvana] slowly bringing her back from the brink.It was unfortunate that he couldn't really 'see' her body properly, leading to a development that could have easily been avoided. Now, he would have to 'teach' Cath Palug how to properly enjoy having sex or Illya's Ego might become corrupted by the overwhelming flood of pleasure...Fortunately, Illya returned to her senses pretty quickly as, upon realizing Vahn's intentions, Cath Palug basically activated her resistances and regeneration. She actually came down from her high with such force that she headbutted his nose after jerking her head forward, her lungs straining for air as she took several gasping breaths. During this time, Vahn embraced Illya in his arms, patiently waiting for her to collect herself and remember what they were doing...With her head down, Illya could see both Vahn's naked body and her own straddling his hips. This caused her eyes to widen like saucers as memories of the last couple of minutes came pouring back like a flood. She couldn't help but bite her bottom lip in embarrassment, internally shouting a Cath Palug for making her turn into an idiot. As for Cath Palug, it just lazily rolled around in the back of Illya's mind, exclaiming, "I want mooooore~! Stop messing around, Illya. Vahn is waiting for us!"Even without Cath Palug's reminder, Illya could see the proof of Vahn's patience. In fact, she could feel it pressing against her, its heat both comfortable yet mind-numbingly hot. As a result, her body began to 'inflate' instinctually, a natural reaction as she couldn't rationalize something like that being able to fit in her body. After all, she may have grown a lot compared to her past self but Vahn was literally known for putting even Goddesses of Sex through the wringer...Before she realized it, Illya had expanded to the point she was nearly two meters in height. This was a uniform expansion, however, so she actually looked like a giantess while Vahn was just sitting in place with a slightly incredulous smile on his face. He already knew that Illya could adjust her size, as this was also one of Cath Palug's abilities, but he hadn't expected her to suddenly become a giant after staring at his penis. This would, obviously, make it a lot easier for her but it was still a...curious development...Illya hadn't even realized her body was growing until she was suddenly staring down at Vahn's face. When she saw his 'amused' smile, her face turned scarlet and, while it was a little difficult, she began forcibly urging her body to shrink down to normal size. Before she managed this, however, Vahn sunk his fingers into her butt and said, "It is better to start like this. You can change your size to what is most comfortable after we begin...come, relax your body and leave it to me..."Without waiting for Illya's response, Vahn moved her hips in a practiced manner, his dragon eager to conquer new territory. This was made easier by the fact that Illya's body had basically rolled out the red carpet for him, inviting him inside without any resistance. She seemed to pull him in proactively, ultimately making certain there was no distance between their bodies.Though Illya was still a virgin, there wasn't even anything like a hymen present but, after his earlier exploration, Vahn was already aware of this. He also knew that, prior to her first death, her womb, along with her other organs, had all been replaced by magically produced transplant organs. This was part of the process to convert her entire body into a giant magic circuit so, while it was more than a little tragic, Illya at least avoided experiencing any pain for her first time...Now, with the traits she had inherited from Cath Palug, Illya's insides were a lot more honest than she was. As for Vahn, he actually had to rest his face in between her developing breasts, his mind a little overwhelmed by the sensations coming from his lower body. It was an indescribable amount of pleasure, comparable to Freya going all-out during their melding. Vahn even felt like his member had been transported to a completely different plane of existence, one filled with entities that existed for the sole purpose of transmitting and receiving pleasure. There was even 'something' attached to the tip of his glans, eagerly sucking the fluids flowing from the tip with even greater fervor than Alaya on a bad day...Vahn wasn't the only one experiencing transcendental pleasure, either, as Illya's body had been in a constant spasm from the moment she settled into his lap. Her body had actually shrunk down to its normal size once again but, rather than pain, it felt like her entire existence had been replaced by an overwhelming amount of pleasure. Without Vahn to cling onto, she had the distinct impression that her mind would have broken as, in the deepest recesses of her subconscious, Cath Palug was crying out in what could only be described as a feral, yet sonorous, cooing sound...(A/N: What even is this chapter...)https://bit.ly/2XBzAYu &lt;-(p.atreon link)paypal.me/EinlionDiscord Invite: https://discord.gg/Jwa8PKh

Though the pleasure offered by Illya's body was overwhelming, Vahn wasn't just going to let himself fall into Cath Palug's momentum. He knew the mischievous creature was the fault for what was happening and, though he didn't blame it for wanting to feel good, reason told him not to let it take things too far.After taking a few deep breaths to calm himself down, Vahn began to gently stroke Illya's hair and back, ignoring the assault on his lower body and calming whispering, "Calm down...focus on the moment, not the pleasure...there is greater meaning behind the emotional connection than the sensual bond we share...I know you can both hear me...follow the sound of my voice...relax your body..."While Illya's mind was overwhelmed by the sensory overload, Vahn knew that Cath Palug would never truly lose itself. It was just having fun but, upon hearing his voice, it obediently sat within the back of Illya's subconscious, allowing her body to be influenced by the calming energies he was sending into it.Though Cath Palug could be a little extreme at times, Vahn had managed to cultivate its Loyalty to a value of 139,412 over the last two years. It had been following a similar developmental route to Fenrir so, while it was prone to acting on its emotions, it was obedient when he spoke directly to it. In the future, once he managed to teach it a bit, accidents like this would, hopefully, become a thing of the past...---It took a few minutes but Illya eventually returned to her senses, her ears drooping slightly as she breathed heavily against his bare chest. She actually blamed herself for letting Cath Palug get out of hand but, as they had both been looking forward to this moment, Illya couldn't hold it against her eternal companion. Rather, the pleasure she experienced was something that was now carved into her body and mind so, even if it was only a little, she was grateful for its presence.While Illya would never vocalize these feelings, Cath Palug was obviously aware of her unvoiced acquiescence. This caused it to laugh playfully within her mind but, still following Vahn's orders, it didn't intervene any longer. It had already helped Illya through all of the most embarrassing parts so, from this moment onward, it would just enjoy the ride.Just as it was aware of her thoughts, Illya knew of Cath Palug's intentions so, before she raised her head to meet Vahn's gaze, she internally thanked it for taking her this far. She had honestly been a little afraid of doing something wrong so, now that she had Vahn's startling hot member gently pulsing in what felt like her stomach, Illya was able to calm down a lot. Rather, feeling how deep he had penetrated into her, she couldn't help but question the capabilities of her own body...Deciding to learn more about herself at a later date, Illya enjoyed Vahn's caress for a while longer before ultimately licking his chest to alert him to the fact she had regained clarity. For reasons she would never fully understand, it was easier to communicate like than rather than use actual words to convey her feelings. Words could be strangely embarrassing while actions always conveyed the desires of a person directly, avoiding the need for complex explanations entirely.Vahn had come to understand Illya's quirks well over the last couple of years so he understood the actual meaning behind her awkward suckling. He moved his hand beneath the location of her tail, using it for extra leverage as he began to gently rock her hips. She didn't have the courage to move on her own so he would need to take the lead, even if her unique constitution removed the need for any movement whatsoever.Since he knew Ilya had certain expectations about sex, Vahn wasn't going to just sit quietly as her insides writhed about him, effectively milking his penis. She might never admit it, but Illya was a borderline masochist so he would need to be a little rough in order to 'prove' that he wasn't just pretending to be enamored with her. This was an expression of her lack of self-confidence as, in stark contrast to how she behaved at times, Illya had never gotten over her fear of abandonment. In fact, reminiscent of Liliruca, her Love parameter had been stuck at 99 for a very long time, a fact Vahn was intent on changing...To this end, Vahn ultimately tightened his grip around the base of Illya's tail, eliciting a pained moan that was accented by sensuous undertones. He began to guide her in larger circles atop his lap, culminating in a deep piston that pushed at her infinitely flexible insides. In a way, this actually annoyed and excited Vahn a bit as he knew her body was literally changing its structure to match his size and shape. As for why he was annoyed, well, part of him had gotten used to being able to knock at a woman's cervix, something that wasn't really possible with Illya as her womb itself had effectively latched itself to the tip of his penis, matching his movements...Still, it was a truly interesting experience so Vahn wasn't going to complain. Rather, he was quite enjoying himself and, based on her loud cries, Illya was feeling it even more than him. Though her teeth had broken skin a few times, inflicting wounds that healed at a much slower pace, this was actually tamer than Vahn had expected. He had fully prepared himself to have literal chunks of his flesh torn away and, if necessary, he was willing to do the same if it meant the peculiar duo was fully satisfied...Compared to his expectations, Illya's 'play biting', following by her suckling on his blood, was more adorable than perturbing. It encouraged him to put more effort into his own endeavors so, feeling her insides begin to undulate, he surprised Illya by forcing her against the bed without minding the fact her tail. He was intending to perform what was known as a mating press, taking advantage of their difference in size to pin her to the bed with his weight...What Vahn didn't expect was for Illya's tail to rapidly increase in size and volume, turning into a fluffy plush cushion that quickly supported her body. This was yet another example of the curious nature of Illya's body but, knowing he would eventually learn all of her secrets, Vahn wasn't in a rush to investigate now. Instead, he linked his hands with Illya's, bringing them above her head so that she was completely pinned as he began to gradually increase the rate of his pistoning.As the change in position had been timed with her building climax, Illya instinctually locked her legs around Vahn's waist the moment she was pushed down. This made his movements a little harder but, having experienced a similar scenario hundreds of times, Vahn knew a few methods to get around this instinctual response. He hiked his knees up progressively until Illya's thighs were lifted from the bed, forcing her pelvis at an angle that made it difficult to easily lock her legs around him.Since it was uncomfortable to be forced into a position where slight pinching occurred, Illya's hips began to wiggle about in an attempt to find a more comfortable position. This was an involuntary response so, even while her body was spasming in an intense climax, it was possible to guide her to slowly spread her legs to allow for easier movement. As a result, her legs ended up splayed out to the sides and, while she was still awash in the echoes of her previous climax, Vahn resumed his movements with fervor, now having 'overridden' her natural inclination to wrap her legs around his waist...This was just one example of Vahn's experience manifesting and, even if he couldn't see into the inside of Illya's body, his status as a God of Sex wasn't an empty title. She might not be willing to vocalize them but he could feel her desires transmitted directly to his mind, urging him to take progressively bolder actions. This was her first time so he was willing to go a bit further than he normally would if it meant the experience was more memorable. At the very least, he would not stop until her Love parameter finally broke through the threshold, even if it took the entire night to convince her...---Vahn his main body was tending to Illya, Vahn's second vessel had been celebrating Arcueid's induction into the Empire. The welcome banquet had been going on for hours and, while most of the people present had considerably high tolerances, many people had gotten drunk. This made the atmosphere more festive, enhancing the taste of Circe's and Medea's already delicious food.The only unfortunate development was the fact that, despite his efforts to appear as a paragon of calm and composure, many of the girls realized what Vahn must be doing behind the scenes. He could feel their own desires swelling up and, while nobody was openly discussing it, he knew a silent debate was going on to determine when the party should end and who should accompany him for the evening.Illya wasn't likely to be pacified any time soon so Vahn couldn't help but be in the mood to share his love. Since he was sensitive to the wants and desires of others, his own were given fuel and, if he had the capabilities, Vahn would make love with everyone simultaneously. Unfortunately, this was still beyond him so, while he could overrule their decision, he ultimately allowed the girls to determine for themselves who would accompany him. This actually made things more exciting as it was almost like winning a mystery prize, one which he would undoubtedly enjoy quite a bit...Eventually, the banquet was finally brought to an end as the men in attendance began to feel the tell-tale signs of something 'amiss'. The only one among them who didn't seem to mind the odd atmosphere was Astolfo but, considering he had enough alcohol to down an elephant, this wasn't too much of a surprise. Fortunately, Catherine was able to pull him away without too much of an issue as his uncouth and unrestrained behavior was only exacerbating matters.When the only people left were the adult females, and Vahn himself, Artoria was the one to break the silence as she said, "Tonight is a special occasion. We are welcoming a new resident into our home, an important event during these chaotic times. In order to strengthen our bonds, all that are willing are invited to a rendezvous within the main chambers. If you are uncomfortable with sharing intimate moments with your fellow sisters, please remind yourself why you have chosen to follow Vahn in the first place..."Of all the outcomes he had expected, Vahn had never imagined that Artoria would essentially open the floor to all-comers. It wouldn't be his first orgy but, with the number of women present, even he would struggle, at least a little. It was fortunate that he could use his Divinity to link the senses of his women so, even if he wasn't directly making love to them, they would be able to feel what others were experiencing. This, combined with the fact they would be tending to each other, made things a little easier on him.Ultimately, the ones to accept Artoria's offer were, surprisingly, only Gray, Nobunaga, Kenshin, Lakshmibai, and, by default, Arcueid. As for his usual entourage, they never really participated in sexual acts, the obvious exception being Gareth who, despite her willingness, didn't want to get in the way of others having fun. This was the same for most of the girls in the Menagerie as, over the last couple of days, Vahn had been spending a lot of time with them.The only person truly on the fence about the matter was Aoko who, for a brief moment, seemed to hype herself up to participate in the event. In the end, however, she got cold feet as the idea of sharing the same bed as five other women was a little too much for the current her. This decision was largely influenced by the participation of Nobunaga who, sharing a lot of similarities with her, had taken a few liberties with Aoko's body whenever the latter let her get away with it.Since her instincts told her that Nobunaga would be 'targetting' her, Aoko wasn't able to muster up the courage to participate, even if part of her felt compelled to do so. Instead, she pulled aside Vahn as the latter was preparing to return to his quarters, a fierce look in her blazing blue eyes as she said, "Don't think this is over. The next time you have a free moment, I'll...I...just you wait and see what I'll do...!"With those final words, Aoko left the dining room with a huff, following after the Menagerie group who had decided to go view the moonlit sky together. Many of them cultivated Yin Elemental Laws so it was a good opportunity to cool off while marginally increasing their strength. Since it was something they could all do together, it had become a relatively common occurrence over the last few months. Now, Aoko would be joining them, her ignorance propelling her forward as she was completely unaware of the fact that the girls from the Menagerie generally cultivated in the nude...(A/N: My brain feels like it is going to explode xD. For those wanting to see depictions of the events between Vahn, Aoko, Semiramis, Medusa, etc, please be patient. There are a few other things planned before those arcs come full circle x_x...)https://bit.ly/2XBzAYu &lt;-(p.atreon link)paypal.me/EinlionDiscord Invite: https://discord.gg/Jwa8PKh

In a relatively secluded area, located near the Armory of Camelot, a climate-controlled Atelier could be found. Here, the incubating body of Illya could be found, her figure floating within a crystalline chamber filled with glowing, greenish-blue, liquid. Nearby, Iris could be seen resting with her head against a large desk. She didn't like to leave her daughter alone so, for the last year or so, she spent much of her time idling about within the Atelier.Rather than just sit around waiting, however, Iris was making use of one of Da Vinci's inventions, a [Space-Time Orb] that reduced the amount of time experienced, rather than increasing it. Though it was only capable of halving the flow of time, it made a pretty big difference considering Illya's body was within the Projection. This meant she was experiencing a fourteenth the standard flow of time, using the outside world as the standard...Seeing Iris sleeping at the side with a slight smile on her face, Vahn couldn't help but adopt one of his own. Then, even if it didn't really matter, he pulled out a blanket to cover her shoulders as the interior of the Atelier was near-freezing. This wouldn't really affect her but, knowing she would still appreciate the gesture, Vahn felt compelled to cover her. Afterward, he turned his attention to the gently pulsating chamber or, more specifically, the developing figure within...Originally, Illya was around 133cm tall, weighing around 34kg when soaking wet. She had what could only be described as a 'petite' figure, even if the more apt description would be prepubescent. Those that were unaware of her true age would assume she was around 10-12 years old, discouraging any untoward thoughts in all but the most deviant of individuals...Now, after more than a year spent within the chamber, Illya had grown to 145cm in height, placing her just two centimeters shorter than Circe. She still lacked the charms of a mature woman but, when compared to her former appearance, there was a 'very' noticeable difference. Her secondary sexual characteristics had now started to blossom, giving her breasts that were slowly approaching a B-Cup in size. Most notably, so long as you ignored her fur, ears, and tail, Illya's thighs had started to round out a bit while the development of her butt was outpacing her breasts by a fair amount...Still, more so than the development of her actual body, the things that stood out the most were, as could be expected, the traits Illya had developed as a result of her fusion with Cath Palug. She hadn't lost her human ears but, at the top of her head, very large, almost rabbit-like ears were now present. They were covered in the same fluffy white fur that now covered much of her body, giving her what could only be described as a 'pettable' appearance. She even had tiny red paw pads on the inside of her palms and the underside of her feet while, most notably of all, a fluffy white tail curled behind her to form an S-shaped curve.At this point, the only areas bereft of hair were parts of Illya's face, her chest, abdomen, and, for reasons he could only blame on the creator of the Nasuverse, her delicates. If you looked at her from behind, the exposed skin actually formed a heart-shaped area of tender flesh, something Vahn found both curious and peculiar. As for how he came to learn of this, well, Ilya herself pestered him to give her period checkups to make sure there weren't any issues with her body. He knew she was worried about the changes taking place within her body but, at the same time, it was really just an excuse to have him develop an interest in her body...Vahn, of course, would never abandon Illya but, as actions spoke much louder than words, he made it a habit to give the tank a full circle, observing Illya from every angle before coming to a stop near a glowing purple orb. This was the special [Time-Dampening Orb] developed by Da Vinci and, after pressing it, Vahn had a full minute to get into a comfortable position before it sent out a pulse that sucked his consciousness inside. This was a feature Da Vinci had developed for convenience as, if it always required you to be in contact with the orb, the number of people accessing it would be very limited...After taking a seat in a nearby reading chair, Vahn pulled back the lever on the side, kicking up the footrest and reclining backward. Then, moments later, an invisible pulse passed through the room, kept within by wards that had been placed on the walls, floor, and ceiling. In the next moment, he found himself in an expansive field, one dotted with various statues of Cath Palug defeating other Phantasmal Species...Having grown accustomed to the peculiar setting in the past, Vahn largely ignored the statues as he made his way to a large temple within the nearby valley. This was where Illya and Cath Palug spent all their time together as, within a [Space-Time Orb], they were able to manifest as unique entities. It was fundamentally impossible for Illya, a Tier 3 entity, to completely integrate with a higher-tiered existence like Cath Palug. It had to let her take control, meaning they would always be two unique existences, even if, outside, they appeared to be one and the same...Before Vahn even reached the ornate stone temple, a tiny white figure bolted out from the interior and, in what felt like less than an instant, it had already leaped into his arms. This peculiar creature, which had an appearance similar to a squirrel and a fennec fox was none other than Cath Palug itself, complete with a pale-blue mantle and a large red ribbon.As usual, Vahn cradled Cath Palug in his left arm before digging his fingers into the plush white fur on its chest. In response, Cath Palug kicked its leg like a dog, cooing a contented 'Fooou~', despite the fact it could actually speak fluently within the [Time-Dampening Orb]. It had fully embraced the idea that Vahn was its Master so, unless the situation required, Cath Palug behaved like a spoiled pet whenever it could get away with it.With the fluffy bundle cradled in his embrace, Vahn made his way to the center of the temple where Illya and Iris were both awaiting him. Contrasting her external appearance, Illya's mental image made it so that her spiritual body still looked like her ten-year-old self. Unlike the past, however, she lacked the various scars that had covered her body, a fact easily discernible by the pure white sundress she was wearing.Before Vahn could even greet the two women, Illya glared at him with a pouting expression, saying, "I heard you slept with another woman...didn't you promise me that you wouldn't sleep with any new women until my body was ready...?"Vahn didn't really have an excuse for his actions and, just as Illya had stated, he did, in fact, make such an irresponsible promise. After all, she was forcibly aging her body using both alchemy and the Fifth Magic, courtesy of Aoko. The problem was, as a result of her fusion with Cath Palug, combined with her already slow-aging body, it wasn't an exaggeration to say that Illya's body had been aged by several thousand years. Despite this, she only had the appearance of a girl between 15-16 years of age, a little younger than she would have liked.Knowing there was no way to talk himself out of his own responsibilities, Vahn ultimately just took a deep breath and said, "I do not have an excuse, Illya. All I can do is make it up to you as best I can..."Hearing Vahn's words, Illya gave a curt nod before hopping up to her feet and stating in a firm tone of voice, "I've already waited long enough. I don't even think my body has changed at all in the last five months so it is time for me to wake up. You'll have to...convince me that you're sorry back in the real world..."Though she started off strong, Illya's face became progressively red towards the end. At the same time, her mother began to laugh in the background, accelerating the reddening process by several orders of magnitude. As for Vahn, he already expected this outcome from the very beginning so, after lightly scratching under Cath Palug's chin for a short while, he nodded his head and said, "I'll properly spoil both of you..."Vahn had obviously been talking about Illya and Cath Palug, something everyone understood, but Iris would never miss the chance to take advantage of his poor choice of words. She expressed the fakest example of shock any of them had ever seen, hand covering her mouth with wide eyes as she asked, "My, you really are a voracious Emperor, Vahn. To think you are aiming for both mother and daughter...I'm not sure my heart is ready~"Hearing Iris' words, Vahn and Illya had deadpan expressions on their faces while Cath Palug, ears twitching, broke the awkward silence by cartoonish tone, "Mama, don't get in the way. You have to wait your turn. Vahn is ours right now."Though it didn't speak all that often, Cath Palug was very direct when it opted to do so. It didn't appreciate the fact that it's 'Mama' was getting in the way at the penultimate moment, something it and Illya had been looking forward to for a very long time. As a result, its hair had started to stand on end and, while it would never attack Iris, its violet eyes were glowing with visible annoyance.Being glared at by a Tier 5 creature might scare others but, having already accepted Cath Palug as her child, Iris showed no discernible signs of fear. Instead, she simply giggled mischievously, playing off Cath Palug's words as she mused, "I suppose I'll have to wait my turn then. I really am curious to learn what all the fuss is about. For now, I'll just have to be patient. Make sure to tell me all about it later on, okay, Illya-chan~?"Without waiting for her daughter's replay, Iris immediately vanished into thin air, her laughter still echoing for a few seconds due to the vast chamber and smooth stone surfaces. This caused Illya to fall silent for nearly a minute before ultimately looking back at Vahn with a serious expression and saying, "I blame you for this..."Despite her words, Illya had actually been helping to build the relationship between her mother and Vahn over the last two years so she knew it wasn't really his fault. She had even been the one to have them all sleep in the same bed and, while it was a rare occurrence, they had even bathed together a few times. This was largely the result of her fear that, after developing a relationship with Vahn, there was a chance her mother would slowly distance herself. Illya didn't want to lose her mother a second time so, for the sake of both of their happiness, she had been pulling the strings, something both Iris and Vahn were aware of...Since he had already made up his mind on the matter, quite a while back, Vahn just answered Illya's accusation with a small smile before carrying Cath Palug over to her and saying, "I guess I'm greedy. I can't help but want to make both you, your mother, Cath Palug, and everyone else happy...will you forgive me, Illya...?"Hearing Vahn's words, Illya puffed out her reddened cheeks slightly. Then after stepping closer to his body, she placed her forehead against his chest before muttering, "Convince me then...I don't want to hear flowery words...show me...I want to experience how you will make us all happy..."Immediately after her words sounded, Illya followed her mother's example by simply vanishing from the [Time-Dampening Orb]. This caused Cath Palug to vanish as well since, despite them being two different entities, they shared a single primary consciousness. Now, when Vahn made his own exit, he would have to deal with their fused form and, after a few past experiences, he knew it wasn't going to be easy. Cath Palug experienced a phenomenon similar to 'heat' so things would get intense in a very short period of time...Despite this, Vahn's smile didn't fade. Rather, he just took a deep breath through his nose before, moments later, vanishing from within the temple's interior...(A/N: Alternate Titles: 'Da Vinci knows no limits','Illya is a closet pervert with exhibitionist tendencies xD...','Vahn's lamentations are other people's dreams...')https://bit.ly/2XBzAYu &lt;-(p.atreon link)paypal.me/EinlionDiscord Invite: https://discord.gg/Jwa8PKh
