Endless Path : Infinite Cosmos

Chapter 1573 Release

With a glazed look in her eyes, Eva watched the sunset from within a cozy double-slipper tub that was perched on the edge of a massive ice shelf. The frigid environment, cold enough to turn freshwater to ice in mere moments, seemed to have absolutely no effect on the steaming hot bath. Rather, even when the wind lightly caressed her skin, it carried with it a comfortable warmth, a stark contrast to the biting chill that could claim the life of a normal human in fewer than five minutes...

Exhaling a steamy sigh, Eva allowed her body to sink a little deeper into the water, staring up at the face of the man cradling her from behind as she muttered, "There is something poking my butt..."

Instead of denying the claim, Vahn just nodded his head, stating, "That is pretty normal in this kind of situation..."

After staring up at Vahn’s face for a few seconds, a deadpan expression on her face, Eva lazily rolled her eyes before reaching between her legs and grabbing the offending member. Then, with an accusatory tone to her voice, she complained, "Excessive..." as a ruddy glow began to spread across her cheeks.

Without commenting, Vahn reclined his head back, his arms resting on the sides of the tub as he let Eva do whatever she wanted. She forced herself to act boldly, but, if pressed, she would immediately become skittish and standoffish. He quickly learned it much easier to allow her to experiment on her own, reacting only when she directly tempted or enticed him. This made it a lot easier for her, and, while it was more passive than he would have liked, Vahn had learned to enjoy her fumblings and curiosities...

Feeling her heart racing quite a bit, Eva swallowed audibly before closing her legs around the startlingly hot member. She didn’t move around much, but she allowed it to press against her most sensitive spot, her breathing becoming progressively more ragged as she felt the heat flow into her body. She could feel a growing desire to rub her thighs together, but, knowing this would only make things ’worse’, Eva released a hot sigh before leaning back and saying, "Help me cool down..."

Hearing Eva’s command, Vahn brought his hands from the sides of the tub, his left delving into the water to rest on her abdomen as his right lightly cupped her breast. Though he took the liberty to lightly mold her left breast, Eva didn’t reprimand him. Instead, she released a contented sigh, her tensions fading as a cooling sensation replaced the growing heat in her body. She had grown rather fond of Vahn’s touch, as, with a simple wave of his hand, he could bring her great pleasure or great relief, entirely dependent on her mood...

After relaxing against Vahn’s body for the better part of a minute, Eva felt a light pinch that caused her eyes to slowly peel open. She didn’t stop it immediately, but, after Vahn began to lightly trace his index finger around her areole, she muttered, "You’re pushing your luck..."

Removing his hand from Eva’s breast, Vahn just lightly chuckled before kissing the top of her head and musing, "Maybe I’ll really get lucky one day..."

With a bit of redness spreading across her cheeks, a common sight these days, Eva pulled her body further up, exposing her modest figure to the open air as she said, "It’s about time for us to get out. My fingertips already look like dried prunes. See?"

Seeing Eva’s wrinkly fingertips, Vahn adopted a moderately amused smile as he mused, "I can see that..." in a lighthearted tone. Then, without dawdling, he elevated from the tub in a single swift movement while simultaneously shifting Eva to a princess carry. In the past, she had tried to protest this, claiming she could walk just fine on her own, but, after a week of pampering, it had become ’normal’ for him to carry her around everywhere they went...

While watching Vahn skillfully brush her hair through the large mirror he had prepared for her, Eva broke the silence, stating, "I’ve already been gone a lot longer than expected. If I’m going to accompany you, there are some things I need to retrieve from my hideout first. I also need to prepare an adequate disguise, so it will probably be a few days before I return. There aren’t too many people who know my true form, but, I’d rather not risk being hunted down while my powers are sealed. Besides, I don’t want those brats seeing me like this...they might get some strange ideas..."

Since they had already discussed her disappearing for a few days, Vahn wasn’t too surprised by Eva’s words. He knew there were some things she still wanted to keep secret, so, until she was ready to open her heart to him, he wasn’t going to push her. Instead, he smiled back at her through the mirror, an affectionate glimmer in his eyes as he said, "You know you can call me if anything happens. Even if I’m on the other side of the planet, I would bore through the core itself to reach you in the shortest period of time~."

Rolling her eyes, Eva pulled her left leg up into the chair, resting her cheek on it as she said, "Just don’t go chasing bunny girls while I’m gone...pervert..."

Hearing the familiar remark, Vahn’s smile became slightly wry, but, instead of commenting, he continued combing through Eva’s silky, golden, locks. At this point, he was half-expecting her to show up disguised as a bunny girl when she appeared in Ariadne. She seemed inordinately concerned about the fact he had ’stalked’ the woman to her place of work, so, in a misguided attempt to appeal to him, Vahn could easily imagine Eva doing something rather silly in order to make a statement in front of the other girls...

Keeping his thoughts to himself, Vahn took the initiative to braid Eva’s hair in a waterfall braid. He felt it suited her quite a bit, and, though she had quite a bit of hair to work with, Vahn had hundreds of years of experience dressing hair. His fingers were ’impossibly’ dexterous, and, if he observed the flow of the individual strands, he could prevent painful knots and snags with relative ease. This made him everyone’s go-to whenever an important occasion or event was coming up, as, even if they were going with the same style, he could always fix it in a way that brought it very-near perfection.

Though she wanted to complain about Vahn doing as he pleased, Eva could never quite find the words to stop him. He would always fix her hair in a way that perfectly complimented the outfit she was wearing, and, even if she scrutinized it for an hour after the fact, it was almost impossible to find a single loose strand. Rather, when it came to pampering others, Vahn was exceptionally skilled at even the most mundane tasks...

Like adding the final touches to a masterfully designed cake, Vahn threaded a black ribbon through Eva’s hair before tying it into a small bow at the back of her head. The entire process had taken around forty minutes, but it perfectly complimented the gothic lolita style dress she was currently wearing. She only ever wore white when they were spending time together, so, even before she had brought it up, Vahn had already discerned Eva’s intentions the moment he saw her dress. This was the main reason he had chosen such a complicated style, as, even if it was just forty minutes longer, he wanted to spend more time with her.

Seeing the look in Vahn’s eyes, Eva repressed a sigh as she hopped out of the chair and said, "I won’t be longer than three days. If I don’t arrive before the sunrise on the fourth day, I give you permission to come and find me. Now, stop looking like an abandoned puppy and come over here..."

Expecting Eva to give him a goodbye kiss, Vahn’s mood improved slightly as he closed the distance between them in an instant. At the same time, however, Eva tossed a red candy into her mouth. A small cloud of red magical energy erupted from her body like a dust explosion, and, before Vahn’s eyes could react, Eva had wrapped her arms around him, her impeccably soft breasts pressing into him as she stole a deep kiss. The pill she had tossed into her mouth was known as an [Age-Decieving Pill], a highly coveted item in the black market that created a physical illusion that allowed you to freely modify your age and appearance.

A stark contrast to her true appearance, the ’adult’ Eva stood at roughly 178cm tall, and, while it might be just an illusion, her body was nearly flawless with bust, waist, hip measurements of 88, 69, and 88, respectively. The only incongruity was, despite her body feeling real, including a perfect transmission of body temperature, her weight hadn’t changed. She was only 130cm tall in her original form, so, despite having ’grown’ quite a bit, Eva’s adult form only weighed a little over 25kg, roughly 56lbs.

Despite the feeling of incongruity, Vahn wasn’t shy when it came to reciprocating Eva’s deep kiss. Her personality seemed to change completely when she was in her adult form, so, rather than show any embarrassment or inhibitions, she, for a brief moment, gave off the aura of a carnivorous woman. She even snaked her leg between his thighs while letting her nails sink into his chest with enough force to tear the fabric of his shirt...

Feeling a now-familiar ache begin to spread through her body, Eva separated her lips from Vahn’s, a thin trail of glossy liquid linking them together for a brief moment before she licked it away and mused, "Behave while I’m gone...if I find out you were playing around, I really will punish you..."

To emphasize her words, Eva traced the nail of her index finger across Vahn’s cheek, cutting a thin line similar to a blade. Though it healed instantly, the meaning still got across due to the predatory glimmer in her eyes. It was almost like she was a completely different person, but, treating her no differently than before, Vahn held her loosely in his embrace, an affectionate smile on his face as he said, "I’ll be waiting..."

Adopting a smile of her own, Eva planted a few more kisses on Vahn’s lips, holding the back of his head as if refusing to let him escape. It was only after a few minutes had passed that she finally released him, a seductive glow suffusing her cheeks as she mused, "Try not to miss me too much, brat..."

Content with her final barb, Eva’s smile curled up at the edges as her body vanished into thin air. As for Vahn, he just rolled his eyes slightly before releasing a somewhat sad sigh, already missing her despite the fact she had just disappeared. Then, after cleaning up all the signs of their cohabitation, a pale golden aura shrouded his body as he took to the sky, enjoying the feeling of the frigid air as he set his sights on the distant Ariadne...

----

With Eva departing long after sunset, everyone back in Ariadne had already retired for the night. As a result, Theo had already returned to her room for the night, but, in spite of this, Vahn still had a half-naked woman lying next to him. Arika had grown increasingly bold as of late, and, though she still entered a state similar to ’stasis’ while asleep, she had reached the point of curling up at his side, her hand resting on his chest or abdomen.

Fortunately, even if he was feeling a little tense after his foray with Eva, Vahn had the always-eager Medusa to keep him company while Fenrir cuddled Asuna. Though they couldn’t be as intense as usual, the result of Medusa belly beginning to swell, Vahn still enjoyed entangling with her for hours at a time. They had the entire [Sub-Space Orb] to themselves, and, though it only had a time dilation of 4:1, that was more than enough for a late-night liaison.

With her hair tightly entangling most of Vahn’s body, coiling around even his neck, Medusa released rhythmic gasps as her insides twisted, turned, and writhed about in response to the invasive heat that seemed to pervade the entirety of her inner sanctum. There was very little movement involved whenever they had sex, but, despite appearing immobile on the outside, her insides were ’violently’ coiling around him. This would go on for upwards of twelve hours at a time, bringing great pleasure to both of them...

While Medusa’s insides seemed to be trying to grind him into meat paste, Vahn was nibbling on her pointed, elf-like, ear. At the same time, despite her hair trying to stop his movements, he gently massaged around the base of her tail with his left hand while holding the tail itself in his right. Though it was covered in metallic scales, Medusa’s tail was actually very pliant, and, as was often the case, it was also the most sensitive spot on her entire body...

Feeling her Master kneading her tail, Medusa’s mouth and eyes closed as a small whimper escaped her throat. She wasn’t in any pain, but, having her weak spot played with, Medusa felt a surge of pleasure that was difficult to cope with. It was enough for her just to be linked together with her Master, so, when he stimulated her even further, it took every bit of restraint she had just to avoid having her voice resonate through the surroundings with enough force to crack crystal...

Hearing Medusa’s whimpering, Vahn stopped nibbling on her ear, and, after staring into her golden eyes, he ran his hand along the length of her tail while whispering, "You don’t have to hold back...your voice is very beautiful...I want to hear it..."

Punctuating his words, Vahn grabbed the tip of Medusa’s tail, and, though it wasn’t the most sensitive spot, it still sent shivers through her body. She knew what he was going to do, so, in preparation, she took several deep breaths before coiling around him with more than enough force to crush steel. Then, similar to the Convergence of Heaven and Earth, Vahn linked the nerves in Medusa’s tail, tracing his left hand across the top ridges while tracing the fingers of his right hand along the underside...

With a voice that could humble even the greatest opera singers, Medusa released a sonorous cry that could be heard for several kilometers. Had he been a normal person, everything from Vahn’s eardrums to his organs would have ruptured as a result of the physical shockwave that always followed Medusa’s outburst. He even assumed she had an Innate related to her voice, as, in the past, Da Vinci had determined that the sounds produced by her cries were able to resonate with physical matter, shattering and rupturing even magically reinforced metals. This was the main reason Medusa tried to hold back her voice, but, unafraid of the consequences, Vahn always felt a small amount of vindication whenever she screamed ’Master’...
