Chapter 423: You May Address Me as Your Holiness
Chapter 423: You May Address Me as Your HolinessHow should I describe my current situation someone comes up and offers me the throne but I decline it? Sounds about right.
The location was the same cavernous hall I found myself in previously. Here I was, sitting atop the throne that was supposed to be Paliseths while happily munching on the food offered up to me by Paliseth herself. The supposed master of the Shadowhunter clan was currently buttering me up while ten young, beautiful Dark Elves performed a sword dance.
The Dark Elves had their own version of the sword dance that differed from the Wood Elves. A gamut of revisions had produced a sword dance that was decidedly more palatable. Especially because of those THICC white thighs and those bouncy bouncies Ahem. What I meant to say was that I had never seen the Wood Elves perform a sword dance myself, so I was more than shocked by the sheer audacity of their dressing
Not too long ago, I acknowledged the Spider Queen Lolthe as my godmother. Forced would have been a more appropriate term if I had my way but I digress.
Upon formalising this new relationship, she gifted with me a mark then hastily left. After all, the last thing she wanted was to be found out by the other gods. One thing to note was that the Dryder she descended upon promptly kicked the spider bucket upon her departure
Having sent off my new godmother with a heavy heart, I soon discovered what the benefits of being her godson were.
Maybe its not bad being her son she is a world-famous evil goddess after all. Also, Im now the Holy Son of the Dark Elves!
Such a grand title was something I wasnt accustomed to. But the feeling of being worshipped is spectacular! Mwhahahaha, bow before me, mortals!
Pwah! I happily downed a cup of wine that was offered to me then choked on it. Coughcough curses, shouldnt have drank it so fast
Your holiness are you alright? Seeing me cough so violently, Paliseth immediately rushed to my side and began patting my back while she buried me in her chest. Is that better, your holiness?
Mhm. I stretched out my neck to get a better feel of her absurdly large puddings. Unfortunately, I didnt get so much as a sniff in before I suddenly remembered that Paliseth was still the mom of the children of my idol, Solar-sama. I straightened out my bearing and gently pushed her away. Ahem. I think it would be better if we maintained an appropriate distance.
Being pushed away like that surprised Paliseth. Upon confirming that I really meant what I said, she gently said, Your holiness, do you dislike Paliseth?
Like I can even answer that question! Even if I could, it wont be the truth, am I right?
In order to avoid more awkwardness, I kept quiet for a good two seconds before changing the topic. Wheres Jezsere?
Paliseth paused as well at that point, mulling over whether or not she should answer. Jezseres busy looking after her older brother.
Older brother? I raised my eyebrows. You mean Reyage?
Thats right.
So shes with Reyage my worries were immediately alleviated by half. But only for a second. A moment later, I realised that meant that Reyage must have gotten into trouble.
Not too long ago, Reyage had tried to rescue me from Arachne Cavern. And even though I still couldnt figure out why he went to such lengths to help me, I still remembered this favour Hmm. I bet shes still worried that I was angry at her for injuring Reyage so heavily when he tried to rescue me. I have to say though what an unfortunate child he is, to be slammed into the wall like that by his own mother. Simply unbearable.
However, I had no intention of settling this score with Paliseth. After all, she technically wasnt wrong either -the best should be left for ones deity. She was merely fulfilling her duty. And now that we were all one big family, I shouldnt be too hard on her either.
How is he doing? Seeing as he had been on my side from the start, I should at least ask about his condition.
Paliseth eyed me trepidatiously; she wasnt able to garner much from my reaction. Still, at least I was openly addressing this elephant in the room now. She knew this as well so she was completely forthright with me and summarised the current situation.
He should be fine. I made sure to show some control when I hit him. He should be fine by tomorrow even if the wounds might have seemed really serious that day.
Thats good. Have him rest first, Ill go find my own fun. Hearing that he was alright was a relief. Since Jezsere was busy tending to him, she naturally had no time to accompany me either. Thus, I decided to have some fun by myself.
I should ask Paliseth, I bet a Dark Elven city would have a ton of fun stuff to do.
Hearing that I was off to find some fun, Paliseths eyes first went wide then narrowed in on me. Finally, she cautiously asked, your holiness, are you looking for male company or female company?
Wait you dont even know what gender I am, do you?! Exactly how am I not a guy?! Why does everyone treat me like a girl wherever I go?! I dare you all to find a more manly man than me!
The proverbial volcano had finally exploded. Thankfully, I was already used to such situations and swiftly calmed the raging fires within me. However, that didnt stop my previously smiling face from turning black in an instant. I shot a displeased look then stated in a low voice, I am a male, and I like females, got it?
Yesyes Paliseth understands completely. She immediately lowered her eyes in subservience. Following that, she turned around to address the other Dark Elves in a sharp tone, The dancers stay behind. Everyone else, leave.
A short while later, the grand hall was emptied of any male Dark Elves, female guards and female servants. All thats left were those ten dancers who had stopped dancing by now and Paliseth.
Well, what are you lot still standing there for?! His holiness requires your service! Now that she was done giving out instructions, Paliseth stood up and prepared to leave. Your holiness, Paliseth wont get in the way of your fun then.
Hey hold on, dont leave Why are you even leaving? And why keep them here?
Seeing her try to leave, I hurriedly stopped her. Why? Because there were now ten beautiful dancers slowly closing in on me. Which wasnt the problem, actually. The problem was that they were also stripping at the same time!
Given how sparsely clothed they were to begin with, it only took a few steps before they were completely exposed. Oh, those long legs fish! I didnt see anything. Nope. Nothing at all. My eyes are closed so you have to believe me
It wasnt like I hadnt seen a naked female before; there was that time with Nicole when she was still a child and Mo Na. The problem was that having these ten strip like that was just too titillating Really, why are they even stripping? They need to put something on quick or else Ill really see their naked selves.
Can it be Seeing me so affected, Paliseth became a little troubled as well. Can it be that his holiness is interested in Paliseth? But Paliseth is no longer pure of body, she might taint his holinesss body
Nark that I know I want to be free of my grand wizard status, but my pee pee is still on vacation here Oops I mean, theres no way I would ever do it with a bunch of women I had just met, even if they are Elves! Those thicc thighs wont sully my morals this day! Mhm.
Quick, have them put on some clothes hold on why are you stripping as well? Put something on
Finally, after some significant persuasion, all the female Dark Elves present were fully dressed.
Paliseth was seated back on her original seat with a knowing smile on her face as she gazed upon my crestfallen self. Clearly, she was up to no good once more.
Your holiness, may I know what does fun refer to then?
I just wanted to have a look around
Having gone through that whole fiasco with me just now, Paliseth had basically gotten accustomed to dealing with me. I wouldnt be surprised if this centuries-old hag had completely seen through my personality at this point.
Well, not like I care. My standing is miles above hers thanks to that cheap godmother I picked up on this little side trip. She doesnt have the guts to do anything to me.
Hmph, if Im not happy with your service, you can be sure my godmother will hear about this!
However, my displeasure only earned a thin smile from her -she had definitely seen through me! If your holiness wishes to have a tour around, my suggestion is the Arachne Cavern. That is our races holy ground. Not only is that the place where we worship the goddess, its also an important breeding ground for the Dryders. Normal Dark Elves do not even have the privilege of stepping into that area. But if its your holiness, Im sure it wouldnt be a problem.
Hearing those words again, I couldnt help but shudder involuntarily. Hahaha but we just came back from there thats not fun at all. How about somewhere else?
To be honest, I wasnt afraid of spiders at all. It was those female vessels that spooked me
