Endless Path : Infinite Cosmos

Chapter 2076: Convergence

With the sound of a girlish shrill growing ever louder, Vahn decided against waiting for Seraphina and Usalia to reach the ground. The spell was designed to arrest their momentum just before they impacted the forest floor, but, for the sake of smoothing things over and making the conversation to come a little easier, he sprouted a pair of wings from his back before bolting into the sky like a golden meteor...

"Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa~! What the hell is this!? I'm too beautiful to die! Usalia! Save meeeeeeeee~!"

With her wings failing to provide any life, Seraphina couldn't help flailing her arms and legs as her speed towards the ground continued to increase. As for the white-haired rabbit at her side, Usalia, she maintained a completely neutral expression, saying, "Stop whining." in a cold monotone.

"How cruel...!"

Rolling her eyes in response to Seraphina's outburst, the malicious black claws protruding from Usalia's paws became noticeably longer as she focused her attention on the golden meteor that was approaching them. She didn't sense any danger, but, just in case, a violent white aura began to exude from her body as she extended her rapidly enlarging paw to grab Seraphina's body. She had a unique ability that allowed her to manipulate the size and shape of her body, and, under specific circumstances, the bodies of others.

"K-Kyuuk...!"

Feeling her body crushed beneath Usalia's ludicrous strength, a rather unladylike croak emanated from Seraphina's throat as she immediately regretted asking for the former's assistance. Fortunately for them both, the golden light wasn't an enemy. Rather, much to Seraphina's satisfaction, it ended up being a remarkably handsome man with golden wings, dark hair, and vibrant aquamarine eyes.

With a wave of his hand, Vahn was able to dissipate the energy compelling Seraphina and Usalia to fall to the ground. At the same time, he gradually arrested their momentum until they slowed to a stop, a friendly smile on his face as he said, "Welcome to the Divine Realm. I'm glad you accepted my invitation."

Feeling an invisible force keeping them afloat, Usalia released Seraphina from her grasp so that the latter could say, "Oh-hohohohoho~! So you're the one who dared to summon the great and noble Lady Seraphina? You've got a lot of explaining to do if you want to avoid spending the rest of your inconsequential existence beneath my heels~!"

Resisting the urge to roll his eyes, Vahn briefly inspected Seraphina's body. She had matured quite a bit since the last time he saw her. She had a perfect hourglass figure, fluffy pink hair fashioned into a fashionable bun, and, rather than the Fleet Admiral's outfit she had been wearing at the time of her death, her current outfit consisted of a butterfly-themed dress with a 'very' high cut above her left leg. This would have stood out on its own, but, rather than something more sensible, the dress was designed in such a way that the fabric between the butterflies was transparent. This, combined with the fact she wasn't wearing undergarments, created quite the sight to behold...

Shaking his head, Vahn surprised both Seraphina and Usalia by spontaneously transforming into a golden Prinny. The transition from a lower realm to the Divine Realm caused a causal convergence, so, despite having her memories of him erased, it didn't take long for Seraphina to recognize Vahn, her pupils shrinking as she pointed towards him and shouted, "It's you...!"

Raising his flipper, Vahn responded with a curt, "Yo." before teleporting to the side as Seraphina attempted to kick him in the face with her inordinately sharp heels. His dodging only served to set her off even further, her face turning bright red as she shouted, "Hold still, you peg-legged piece of shit! If you don't let me get at least one good hit on you, I...I'll never forgive you...!"

Since the Divine Realm prevented Players from using their full power outside of Gift Games, Vahn responded by letting Seraphina's hit connect directly with the center of his forehead. This caused a shockwave to ripple outward, but, despite the power contained within the kick, neither he nor the surrounding environment took a bit of damage.

"Huh...?"

Returning to his 'true' form, Vahn grabbed Seraphina's ankle before moving her foot away from his face, releasing it as he said, "We have much to discuss. For now, let's land. There are a few people I want to introduce you to before we talk about why I sent you an invitation."

Without missing a beat, Seraphina stated, "They better not be women. That invitation letter of yours said I would be able to find the man of my dreams if I accepted. I won't forgive you if you spent the last thousand years playing around while I was working my butt off."

Before Vahn could offer a response of his own, Usalia chimed in to remark, "If that was true, your butt wouldn't be so big..."

"How rude! I'll have you know my butt strikes a perfect balance between shape and pliability! Are you trying to call me fat!?"

Rather than respond to Seraphina's outburst, Usalia just stared at her for several seconds before turning her attention to Vahn and asking, "Can you really bring back my parents...?"

Recalling the contents of the letters Shiroyasha had given him, Vahn nodded his head, saying, "I could even try summoning them now if you really want me to. The hardest part is providing a proper justification and finding an appropriate time to summon them. Not everyone is so willing to ascend to the Divine Realm."

Though she wasn't particularly known for her complex reasoning, Usalia only fell silent for several seconds before shaking her head and saying, "No. It's fine. Just knowing I can meet them again is enough. For now, I want to familiarize myself with the Divine Realm. If it's too dangerous, I will put off summoning them until I can make it safe..."

Nodding his head in approval, Vahn was about to say something when Seraphina suddenly asked, "Hey, Vahn, do you think my butt is fat? Be honest."

Since she had half-turned to show off her bottom, Vahn's eyes were naturally drawn to Seraphina's rather voluminous backside. Her Succubus heritage ensured that her proportions were remarkably close to perfect, so, while her butt was certainly larger than average, her thick thighs, long legs, and shapely figure balanced it out.

"If you're asking for my honest opinion, I'd have to say you look amazing. Your dress is more than a little ridiculous, but, other than that, you're one of the most beautiful women I've ever met."

Though she was moderately irked by his comment regarding her choice of attire, Seraphina's face beamed when she heard Vahn's flattering remark. At the same time, however, she couldn't help but notice he said "one of" the most beautiful women. This implied that he had met women who were even more beautiful than her. This was something she couldn't accept, so, after quickly recovering from her brief euphoria, she asked, "One of? Implying you've met women even more attractive? I'm not trying to brag, but my beauty is touted throughout the multiverse. If you can't provide proof, I'll have to ask you to revise your statement. I don't settle for second place."

Shaking his head, Vahn answered, "I'll introduce you to them later. For now, there are others waiting to meet you. We'll talk more once everything has been settled."

Crossing her arms in a manner that emphasized her ample bosom, Seraphina was tempted to press the matter further. The only thing that prevented her from doing so was the fact she had countless questions to ask him, chief among them being why he was no longer a Prinny. Her memories might have been erased but their brief encounter had left a deep impression on her heart and mind. Thus, as fond as she was of his current appearance, a part of her felt disconcerted regarding the fact that he wasn't a Prinny...

"Very well. However, I expect a full explanation later. I won't forgive you if you try to make excuses or keep secrets from me. I even picked this outfit in order to make a good first impression. If you're supposed to be the man of my dreams, you need to start acting like it."

Though he couldn't help smiling wryly in response, Vahn's tone softened as he said, "Don't worry. I can't promise to meet all of your expectations but I can assure you that you'll be happier here than in the Netherworld."

Snorting through her nose, Seraphina resisted the urge to tell him to prove it. Instead, she looked towards the ground, her eyes glistening with a mystical light as she muttered, "They're all women..." in a dissatisfied tone.

Shaking his head, Vahn decided to throw caution to the wind as he teleported next to Seraphina and promptly picked her up in a bridal carry. This greatly startled the pink-haired Demoness, but, before she could open her mouth to protest, he preemptively sealed it with a kiss.

Surprised by Vahn's sudden action, Seraphina's pupils shrank to the size of pinholes. At the same time, however, a deluge of heat spread through her body that made her feel as though she was melting from the inside. This was accompanied by a pleasant and intoxicating buzz in her mind, almost as if she had just sampled the most potent yet flavorful alcohol in the multiverse.

A stark contrast to how most women would have acted in a similar situation, Seraphina's instincts compelled her to reciprocate Vahn's ostensibly invasive and irrefutably lascivious actions. Even her tail, reminiscent of a reddish-purple whip with a heart-shaped tip, came out to play. She normally did her best to keep this carefully concealed, as, despite being a powerful magical catalyst, the tip of a Succubus' tail was inarguably their most sensitive spot.

Fully aware of this, Vahn snatched Seraphina's tail before she could even think to retract it. Even this was enough to elicit a sensual squeal from the depths of her throat. When he began massaging the heart-shaped tip, far more sonorous sounds began to echo through their surroundings as her body twitched and writhed in his embrace...

With Seraphina curling up in his arms with a contented smile on her face, a wry smile developed across Vahn's face as he shifted his attention to Usalia. He was going to suggest that they begin their descent, but, the moment he looked towards the inordinately petite bunny, she beat him to the punch, saying, "I'm not an exhibitionist. If you want me to be your mate, you'll need to cook a meal I can enjoy. My favorite foods are curry and carrots. I also like the taste of raw meat but only if it's from freshly slaughtered prey. If you feed me something that has been preserved or processed, I'll take a bite out of you instead. Don't forget."

"..."

Though he was tempted to say he had no interest in the 130cm tall rabbit, that argument wouldn't hold up once she met Black Rabbit and interacted with the more petite members of his harem. Her bestial traits also guaranteed that she would be spending time with Fenrir, so, even if she wasn't in his strike zone, that had rarely mattered. She was cute, of age, and had a tragic background. Unless she demonstrated some kind of aversion towards him, it was likely only a matter of time before her adorable qualities whittled away at his inhibitions.

Realizing that this train of thought was the first sign of his waning resistances, Vahn's smile became even wrier as he said, "I'll keep that in mind." Then, without looking back to see if she was following, he began his descent towards the ground. As a result, he didn't notice the teasing smile on Usalia's face, her pure white tuft of a tail twitching as she quickly followed after him...
