Chapter 428 – Planning
*** Alzi, Main Body ***
I didn't have to choose. Mommy forced them to all stay together till dinner arrived. Not that we did much together. I've had a bit too much excitement today, it seems, and was drifting in and out of sleep the entire time I was with them.
Mommy probably just barged into Victoria's room after court. Victoria was quite grumpy, especially compared to the two babies, until dinner arrived. And now, somehow, it was just me and Victoria in the room.
How I let Mommy escape, I don't know. But it happened, and I've wanted to reward Victoria for a while, just have to hope it doesn't go too far like I did with Yzzorres.
"What the fuck now?" Victoria asks.
"You strip and I give you a massage," I say. "Then we sleep."
"Shit," Victoria says. "There goes my damn belly."
"That isn't a promise," I say. "Plenty of women have had my hands all over their bodies and didn't walk away pregnant, or even bow-legged. I don't want to get you pregnant. You clearly don't want to get pregnant. I'm not that mean. If I ignore your vulgar language, you're quite nice."
"Shit, I remember the first fucking massage," Victoria says. "I'll fucking give it a shot. You just better be fucking nice to me if you get me fucking pregnant."
"Are you ok with getting pregnant?" I ask. "Not right now. But sometimes in the future? I can try to find ways to keep you from getting pregnant if you like."
"I don't fucking care," Victoria says, starting to strip on the bed. "Just keep me from the fucking numbers Yuki or Vanya have. I don't fucking want to worry about a bunch of damn kids at once. Spread the damn pregnancies out and keep them small. Right fucking now, I think you shouldn't get me fucking pregnant."
"I agree, and I can do that," I say. "Sorry for not bringing Stacy here with you. But we can use her to keep your pregnancies spread out and small. I'll handle her kids so you don't have to worry about them. Thank you for working with me."
"I never fucking thought about pregnancies till Yuki fucking told me you were going to be my husband," Victoria says. "Shit, I remember when you were mostly just a great fuck and magic masseuse. Then you turned into the damn special breeder, and then you just kept getting fucking stronger. Many fucking adventurers were afraid to see your ass. Worried one fucking look would have them swelling with a child."
Shit. No, don't follow her language. Victoria is beautiful. Oh, I should force Elora to work out hard, and then I can have these two together and put the kid into Elora. Elora would do that. I'm sure I could ask her to do just about anything and get it. I think everyone would like that. Give the Queendom a strong view before she gets pregnant with another Goddess for me. "I agree," I say. "I've gotten a few too many strong women pregnant around me. I'm happy to have you still able to move easily and able to walk around."
"That's fucking good enough," Victoria says. "I'm fucking naked, and in the bed."
"Yes, you are," I say. "Flip over. You know we start with the back."
"I fucking visited you once," Victoria says, but she flips like a good girl. I think she was talking about herself. I doubt the others shared much with her.
It really is just her cursing that needs fixing. Everything else is perfect about her. It will be interesting to see how she reacts to her own kids; maybe that would help her fix that vocabulary. I don't need her to be proper, just not cursing so much. "I've got you in the right position," I say. "Just relax and I'll have you asleep soon."
I'm working while pregnant again. At least it's for my wife and a mate I wronged a bit. And I can sleep next to the woman this time instead of having to show them out, then get bought by someone else later that day.
"I can fucking do that," Victoria says.
"Good."
...
Did I say Victoria is pretty? She's beautiful. Her muscles so defined, I don't know how she did that. And she gets so cute when she finally relaxes. She says she wants to relax, but I don't think her body knows how to relax naturally. I'll need to teach Stacy how to give massages so she can help Victoria better.
"You're so cute," I whisper. Of course, she's asleep, but she deserves to hear it even if she won't remember it. I manage to stay clothed as well and snuggle into and close my eyes. Tomorrow, I should return to the lower realm and figure out everything with Tanatsu.
"Hello, Alzi," the Demoness says. "I've got things set up for me here. I just need you to handle your end of the bargain. Shouldn't be too hard now that you have Writing's help. Just scratch some runes into the dirt and have some sex. Sorry for that, but it's the easiest method for you to get the fight underway. The other materials your wives and past can handle for you easy enough."
"What?" I ask. I'm on a fallen log in the middle of a dark forest. I can barely make out the Demoness near the edge of the small clearing. Her massive hat is back on her head.
"Sorry, I'm still trying to figure out how to bring you up here easily. You asked to kill some Goddess. You saved my daughter and plan to help her even more and let her get some revenge. Thank you. Then you're going to disobey the Goddesses. I'm ready to kill two Goddesses for you. I've got some help, so it may even give us the sister I wanted. Maybe. I don't really trust my other helper, but it may work. It does make it easier to bring the Goddesses out as well. Just harder to get the outcome I want. But you don't care about that. Just that I kill them."
"I was thinking of switching to kill Nature and Justice and find another way to deal with Sex," I say. "Would that cause any problems?"
"Yes," the Demoness says. "It would make your ritual harder to complete and my fight harder. Sex is a rather weak Goddess. She's pulling some strings to get power, but she's still rather pathetic despite how intrinsic her affinity is to the world. Nature and Justice have gone through a lot, but they still have large followings. Fighting both is harder. I would appreciate it if you picked just one of them. Maybe in a few centuries we can think about killing the other one."
"Justice," I say. "We can tame nature, but Justice is crazy, and I don't feel like waiting for her to change. Kill those two."
"Very well," the Demoness says. "Sex and Justice shall die. You'll wake up with the ritual circle in your mind. Create it, the map should guide you on the scale of it. Then you just need a group of women who are not your mates but have wronged you in some way. Nothing major, even just yelling at you would work. Your wives won't do. Then, for the center of the circle, you need a woman with two wombs. I believe you have a centaur for a wife. Ask her for help finding someone like that. I know I said you just need sex, but there is one, well, two things you need: Pixie and fairy dust. You have a wife who can handle getting that as well. Just be careful not to let the Pixies get you pregnant. Those pregnancies are annoying. They have all the pain of a pregnancy and birth, but often nothing comes out. My succubus descendants used to get tricked by them often."
"Isn't this a little too convenient?" I ask. "I have access to everything needed for this ritual. How could a ritual that leads two Goddesses to their death be like this?"
"I've got the hard part," the Demoness says. "The things I need aren't so easy to find, and I only have them due to my age and need to wander about in the divine realm. Sex is weak. It took almost everything for her to make that angel of hers and then put her on a path to meet you. Then she restarted a temple and tried to break your mind. You have a great connection with her, being a champion. So we really only need the strong magic for Justice."
"How does some dust work for that?"
"One tricks the other powers the runes," the Demoness says. "If you can do something that would distract Justice just before you start the ritual, that would also help."
"I have some ideas and desires for that," I say. "But I'm still confused how this all lines up so well for me."
"That log has been marked into it by the end of the ritual, put there by me due to Future coming to see me," the Demoness says. "The roots spell out your end of the ritual, put there by Future yet again. I would be more surprised if you didn't have all the things you need for this ritual."
"Did Future cause all my suffering as well?" I ask.
"No. She doesn't act in the present. Not directly. I say Future made the pattern in the roots, but I doubt it was her hand. She somehow managed to be here and trick someone, probably Nature, into building that root pattern. You met Future. Did she do anything? Did she act? No, she wanted you to do everything. It probably felt like a pointless meeting. That's because you didn't want to do anything for her, so nothing in your meeting could happen. She saw that being in a place and walking around a bit would give her a chance to have sisters. This ritual should help you ascend as well."
"I have someone helping with that already."
"What about your wives?" the Demoness asks. "Your Mother? Mai? Sure, you will probably be able to get them from Death easy enough. You got her favorite Valkyrie heavily pregnant and all that, but is that how you want them? Wouldn't it be better if they were Goddesses next to you? That is the chance here. The chance that more than just you ascend to this realm without dying. I agree that doesn't resolve Future of all the harm she may have brought you, but I know she didn't do it out of malice. She probably didn't know you were going to be hurt at all. If she saw you in the Future, she would've set things up in a way that would end with her heavily pregnant. She just really wants her sisters. Nature, Justice, Sex, and the women down below all hurt you of their own free will. They made that decision. Future may have nudged a few people around, helped it along, but they did the act without her interfering. She just let them be themselves and got what she wanted on the other side, and I know this doesn't remove the pain, but it gives you so much more as well. You're in a good position now. How you got here is disgusting, and you may think the outcome doesn't matter compared to what you went through. But I can tell you I'm not going to fight Future. That will be someone you have to figure out how to kill yourself."
"I'll let it be for now," I say. "I'll think about what she did later."
"Good. Now get some rest and start gathering what you need," the Demoness says. "Have my daughters help you so I will know when you're starting. Thank you again for helping Fyserreia. It brings me so much joy to see her free again. Next time we see each other I'll be killing some Goddesses. Be careful, Alzi. I wish you a happy life. You deserve it."
"Thank you."
