Endless Path : Infinite Cosmos

Chapter 2034: Honesty: Resolution

Though Garam seemed to think things would be over relatively quickly, the participation of Ureko pretty much nipped that thought in the bud. There had been a time when Ureko tried to convince Garam to become her girlfriend, so, now that she had the chance to tease the icy-blunette, Ureko wanted to see her blush. Vahn also had business to attend with the Blue August and Indigo July, so, while Garam was learning just how big of a pervert Ureko had become, he left the two to their own devices in order to converse with the two Spirits and perform maintenance on their bodies.

Fortunately, while the Blue August was very clearly a loli from the Khun Family, complete with their characteristic blue hair and eyes, the Indigo July was a budding yet decidedly more mature beauty with long, indigo-blue, hair. She also had blue eyes, but, while one was a relatively gentle shade of cobalt, the other was a vibrant shade of azure with a dragon-like pupil. As for their individual attires, the Blue August wore a flowing white dress with icy accents while the Indigo July was fitted with an inordinately beautiful gown resembling the night sky.

Like their sisters, neither the Blue August nor the Indigo July could recall their original names. Such things had been stripped away along with the memories of everyone who had known them in their lives. With the passage of time, they had forgotten much more, but, similar to the Black March and Green April, they possessed an overwhelming desire for freedom and revenge. This was something that worked in Vahn's favor as both Spirits had already been made aware of the fact he was the one to slay Jahad. Since he also explained his purpose to them, specifically providing them the freedom they so desperately desired, it wasn't particularly surprising that the duo had grown rather fond of him by the time he finished their maintenance.

With the addition of the two bluenettes, Vahn, and, by proxy, Yuri had already managed to collect five of the Thirteen Month Series. These were the Black March, Green April, Blue August, Indigo July, and the one that, ordinarily, would have been the most difficult to obtain, the Golden November. In total, this brought his count up to three lolis and two maturing beauties, so, while he wouldn't know for sure until he assembled the final seven, Vahn was hopeful that half of the Thirteen Month Series would be on the mature side of the spectrum...

Deciding to collect the next three Thirteen Month Series at the same time, Vahn, once again, found himself in Maschenny's bed chambers. She had actually been anticipating his arrival ever since the sudden 'disappearance' of Adori and the inarguably more jarring declaration of a new Commander-in-Chief. Thus, for the last three days, she had been loitering about in her room in little more than a transparent silk negligee and a lace t-back that showed off her pale white cheeks in all their glory.

Sensing his presence, Maschenny remained with her back turned as she purred, "You've come..." in a sultry tone. Then, turning around, she revealed that a negligee and panties were, in fact, the only things she was wearing. She had completely forsaken the use of a bra, and, as a result, her modest yet immaculately sculpted breasts were on full display, complete with pale pink protrusions sticking out against the fabric of her nightgown.

With a relaxed smile on his face, Vahn nodded his head, answering, "Indeed...' while unashamedly admiring her figure. This gave the athletic yet shapely beauty the courage to saunter over to him in an overtly seductive manner, but, instead of covering the full distance, she stopped a few meters away from him and asked, "The question is...have you come for me...or something else~?"

Though it was unnecessarily misleading, Vahn adopted an ostensibly teasing smile as he answered, "Both." in a relaxed tone.

Raising her brows slightly, Maschenny began to slowly draw the silken thread holding the front of her negligee closed as she inquired, "Oh~?" in an audibly heated tone. She had already formed her resolve to set out on her own, but, even if it was just for one, two, twenty, or even a hundred nights, she wouldn't mind keeping Vahn company.

Waiting until the string had been completely unfastened, the edges of Vahn's smile curled up as he covered the remaining distance and gingerly cupped Maschenny's butt as if it was the most natural thing in the world to do at that exact moment. To his amusement, this caused a fair amount of pink to tinge her cheeks, but, without losing the confident and seductive look on her face, she managed to link her arms around him and remark, "This is quite a bit different from my expectations...the last time we met, you were pretty standoffish and ended up talking more than acting..."

While gently massaging Maschenny's butt with his rhythmically undulating fingers, Vahn nodded his head, casually replying, "You're not wrong. Even now, I would be lying if I said your character didn't absolutely disgust me..."

Amused by Vahn's contrary words and actions, a remarkably sly and discernibly predatory smile developed across Maschenny's face as she asked, "What changed? Don't tell me you've come here with the aim of simply teasing me...I honestly can't imagine you doing something so...cruel..."

Without losing his own smile, Vahn put a bit more force into his hands, forcing Maschenny off her feet and drawing her face closer to him as he explained, "I came with the goal of revealing the truth and seizing the three Thirteen Month Series you've hidden away..."

Blinking in surprise, Maschenny was genuinely taken aback by the fact Vahn knew about the Silver January and Luminous June. He hadn't mentioned them during any of their previous encounters, so, while others believed he might be all-knowing, she had started to speculate there were a number of blind spots in his knowledge. Thus, for a brief moment following his admission, her mental faculties slowed to crawl...

As it was always amusing to see clever and manipulative women with expressions of stupefaction on their faces, Vahn found himself holding back a chuckle as his thumbs hooked under the bands of her panties. Then, running his hands up her smooth and inordinately pale body, he forced her back to awareness by giving her a slight wedgie.

Blushing a fair shade of crimson, Maschenny adopted a practiced yet discernibly genuine pout on her face as she said, "So you have come to tease me..."

Rather than denying it, Vahn nodded his head in a casual manner before releasing the elastic band of Maschenny's panties with a 'pa' sound. Then, before she could completely misconstrue his intent, he gestured toward the bed and said, "Lie down. I'll give you a massage as I explain everything that has been taking place behind the scenes. Since you've already formed the resolve to walk your own path, I'll explain the options available to you. After that, if you still want to...well, I don't mind giving you a good one, two, twenty, or even a hundred good memories."

Punctuating his statement with a wink, Vahn guided Maschenny towards the bed, gently pulling her left hand, before she could even begin to fully process his words. Then, after removing her negligee and stowing her panties away with a practiced finesse, he placed his hand against the small of her back, gently urging her forward as he softly uttered, "Relax. Though you'll probably be upset about a particular revelation, everything else I have to say is purely beneficial in nature."

Though she obediently crawled onto the bed, Maschenny didn't lie on her stomach. Instead, she remained facing upward, supported by her elbows as she stared at him and asked, "What did you do...?" in a slightly cautious tone. There were actually quite a number of things that could easily set her off. However, it was another matter entirely to hear Vahn mention such a thing...

As it wouldn't be his first time giving a girl a frontal massage, Vahn brazenly sat atop Maschenny's thighs before placing his palms on her sides and answering, "Well...it's about what happened while I was on the Hidden Floor..."

...

Though Maschenny was understandably annoyed by the fact that Vahn had kept her Data Self, the thing that upset her the most was the fact her counterpart had been allowed to live within the Little Garden while also receiving the benefits of guided training. This completely spoiled her mood, and, after a bit of back and further, Vahn ultimately agreed to let them meet.

Fortunately, this particular outcome had been within Vahn's expectations. He had even informed Scathach about it beforehand. Thus, while the two electric-haired beauties battled it out to decide which of them would be the 'real' Khun Maschenny Jahad, he observed alongside Scathach while performing maintenance on the Yellow May, Silver January, and Luminious June.

To Vahn's considerable relief, none of the newly acquired Spirits fit the traditional description of a loli. The closest was the Silver January, who, as could be expected, was clearly descended from the Arie Family. She had long silver hair, a slender body, and silvery eyes with a purple hue. As for the Silver January itself, it was a massive claymore-like blade that appeared comically oversized in such a fair maiden's hands. Yet, in spite of this, Vahn couldn't help feeling that the two suited each other perfectly.

A stark contrast to the relatively petite Silver January, the Yellow May and Luminous June were both remarkably mature and incomprehensibly beautiful women. The former had yellow hair that flowed from her scalp like a golden waterfall, deep red eyes that seemed even sharper than her spear, and, most notably, a curvaceous figure that couldn't be concealed even with several layers of kimono. As for the Luminous June, she had similarly golden hair, but, instead of flowing straight, it curled in a natural and graceful manner as it cascaded down her remarkably voluptuous body. Her purple eyes possessed a supernaturally hazy quality to them, and, though she appeared to be completely naked at a glance, the truth of the matter was that it was that she was garbed in a dress comprised entirely of luminous golden light.

Like their sisters, the Silver January, Yellow May, and Luminous June were all pleasantly surprised to learn that the target of their vengeance had already been dealt with. The Silver January seemed far less concerned about this than the others, but, considering she was assuredly a member of the Arie Family, that wasn't too surprising.

What did surprise Vahn, quite a bit, was the Luminous June's declaration that she would become his wife once he managed to free them from their curse. This nearly prompted the other two to do the same, but, after a considerable amount of coaxing, Vahn managed to convince all three to take a bit of time to discover what they truly wanted. This included an explanation of the reincarnation system he was planning to implement in the very near future. Thus, while the Luminous June seemed pretty steadfast regarding the promise she had made, she was also willing to experience reincarnation just to prove how serious she was. As for the Silver January and Yellow May, the former only really cared about polishing her sword techniques further while the latter, matching her lazy expression, seemed content with having a place to sleep and a roof over her head...

Though her training with Scathach had drastically increased her power, Data Maschenny ultimately ended up losing, not because her counterpart was exponentially stronger than her, but because she had overtaxed her body using Lightning Pills. Neither had been able to land any decisive blows on the other due to the restriction prohibiting the use of weapons, so, after a number of flashy moves, the contest ultimately devolved into a war of attrition between the two excessively prideful women. Thus, after a slugfest lasting the better part of seventeen hours, Maschenny, with a vicious smile on her face, attempted to approach her downed counterpart with a spear coalesced from vibrant blue lightning in hand...
