Villiken the Elf asked “Prince, would you like the metals fresh from the ground or processed for purity?”
“Processed in individual, hundred pound ingots.”
“It will be done.” And off he disappeared.
Kanade said “Bring Kyoko right to our room as soon as she is finished recovering. I’ll contact you if anythin’ else it required.”
“Yes, Mistress.” The Six said in unison at the forbidden line as he and she crossed without issue. The guards and Titans had remained almost statues, not leaving their position before the line.
The gilded door parted down the middle easily by Ethan’s hands, but his mind knew it would take the strength to lift over a hundred times the weight of Everest to pass.
What waited on the other side was again too beautiful to accurately describe.
Scurrying animals zipped around and up bioluminescent trees while great fish swam in crystal clear lakes. Songbirds made wonderful music that none from Earth could match the notes coming. Howls of some strange animal said it was on the hunt far away. A mix of a hiss and wolf’s howl mashed together had made it. Snowcapped mountains ran through the room. The melt creating fresh streams and waterfalls. The temperature was balmy warm, but generated its own isolated climate. Rainclouds breezed by beneath the diamond ceiling of flickering purple from the king’s constant use of the most powerful and destructive element. Some fat clouds rained over the sprawling forest.
It was an alien paradise.
“Pretty!” Whispered Kanade, afraid even her own soft voice would disturb the place.
“You can certainly say that again, but I’m curious why the clouds higher than the mountains are raining while the peaks are covered in snow.”
“Clearly there is Shaman magic at work. Look over there! I bet that is where the mistresses lived.” She pointed to a gold dome covered in angular runes a half mile to their right, butted up against the wall the doors loudly closed on.
“Yikes! Zagan must have been a hound dog. How many do you think lived in there?”
“Let’s find out.” She couldn’t hide the need to explore anymore as she flew over and in a few seconds touched down at the large golden doors and pushed it wide open. Her nose wrinkled as she looked inside. “Smells of sex and stale old air. No one has been in here for centuries. Whew! Better leave the door open and air it out.” And she backed out to find Ethan’s gauntlets tucked in his belt with a glowing fist altering the runes in the great golden dome fit even for a Titan to walk through and not need to duck, but it wasn’t as large as the chamber door. “I did count three thousand two hundred beds with a hundred bathroom facilities, showers and closets, but it looked like all the mistresses slept together.”
“Except if they joined Old Bag of Bones inside that mountain there closest to us. It’s the biggest in here. Look beside that main waterfall. It’s a cave with a shiny floor.”
“I see it!” Gold eyes zoomed in halfway up the mountainside as he continued altering the spells on the mistress quarters. “But why there?”
“Zagan’s like me right? When I get too aroused I burn everything unprotected around me. So far only this building and that cave is spelled to trap flame from escaping. Otherwise all life in this room would have been extinct. And I doubt he spelled the entire room to spontaneously have sex anywhere to destroy all this grandeur.”
“I see what you mean… Oh, look where it’s placed! It aims at the door so we can see whoever comes in and has a sheer cliff perfect for flyin’ so we do not need to jump.”
“By your tone I take it you want to settle in there?”
Blue hair bounced with enthusiasm. “Great minds think alike. For right now I’ll keep this hall open and redesign it for some other purpose since I believe his highness’s warnin’. I won’t need it. I’ll not take more than twenty five others later down the line. We can add on later. Since this is our room now we can do with it what we like.”
Getting away from the huge gold hill, they soared over the interior sprawling forest with large smiles, taking in all its beauty. It was more than forest. Grassy hills rolled over areas. Rivers gently went around to lakes that then bled into spacious hot springs which generated currents in the air and evaporation let the clouds form and rain off and on everywhere. Colorful fish swam and birds would dive-bomb for a meal or got picked off by larger predators. Yet no creature was as large as the two new invaders and their power or scent forced them to stay away. Birds or something like them continued to sing. The waterfall was not huge at all, but it was breathtakingly beautiful.
Minds such as theirs saw the entire space in no time at all and knew there was no threat laying in wait. There were no demons inside capable of logical thought. Pure instinctual.
The cliff came into view and although the ground was of rich dirt the top surface was melted to a glossy shine. A lone spacious cave led deep and dark into the mountain, but only so far in that if it rained there would be no chance of getting wet. All around were more sealing runes.
But something had taken residence inside. Something mean. It went to attack and defend its shelter, but a slap of a cherry colored tail took its head clean off and the power threw it far aside. It was some kind of reptilian wolf the size of a Great Dane, but built like a bear, the same kind of creature that hunted not long ago and made that howl. No blood splattered either one.
Ethan held out a hand and sanitized the place since it was musky and foul from urine. The burn cleaned it out in seconds.
“I like it.” She said as she looked over the forest all the way to the double doors in the distance. From the vantage point she saw a lot of vine-like plants try creeping up the walls, but didn’t go far since plants can’t feed on nutrients due to diamond. The wild growth oddly filled her with peace.
“Then I’ll put it here by the falls so that if we used the cave it won’t be so loud.” She liked the idea and said so.
Again Ethan used a bright violet fist before slapping a hand down on the spell. With a thump in the air the forge and apartment appeared. The building came from the First House, foundation and all. The four spells he earlier placed on each wall allowed for instant travel so long as no life stayed inside. He quite literally brought their home with them. It had only two levels, but was seven and a half stories tall. Even with the foundation, the step up was easy for their stature. Sadly the foundation was needed. Another spell let it sink into the ground so it wouldn’t go anywhere.
“About time! I thought you would have done it sooner!”
“Sorry, Dress!” Kanade said as she looked up at the balcony where Dressor was at and staring down. “It took longer than we accounted for because of the sheer size mostly. By the way, Kira’s potion worked.”
“I know. Handsome bulled his way into a meeting when Crait’s old flame was rescued. Crait already resigned and a new tournament of Nagai is being prepared to fill his seat. All is well. Come on in, Girlfriend.” Dress hopped on rigid wooden legs back inside.
Immediately inside and right next to the large forge Ethan laughed at the contraption bolted into the grey granite wall. “Tattoo came through for me!”
“So he created the custom steam generator?” Kanade wondered with curiosity.
“Yeah. And he tied it into the forge… and our bedroom fireplace! Angel, we got free and unlimited electricity. Look at the wall! Water steams in this drum, rises to spin turbines, goes along these pipes to cool down and condense back into water to cycle indefinitely. Tattoo’s a genius.”
“Amazin’! He pulled out all the stops. Since we got water runnin’ behind the house we can bathe and use indoor plummin’.” Her head turned. “But won’t it get dirty? It’ll last longer clean.”
“This is the cover I… think.” He hefted a formed sheet of rune etched steel. “Yeah, he just wanted it to stay open so we could see it’s guts.” With a click the sheet made a perfect fit and held itself in place. “I’ll go drop the water pipe in the stream to start filling.”
Kanade went upstairs to find Dress’s grinning face and liked her reaction as someone had already unpacked all their boxes. Her collection of movies were shelved beside a new giant flat screen and entertainment system. On another wall was Ethan’s vast comic book collection, but seemed so small now with the mostly empty shelf space. A new custom made bed lay with silk crimson sheets. The bed was easily eighty feet wide, forty long and Kanade had wicked thoughts on how to wrinkle the smooth surface. New pots and pans were also added to the impressive kitchen.
“I take it you like.” Dress stated, but she nodded anyway since it was home. “So tell me about this place.” She sat down on the sofa to start.
Down below Ethan broke an old tree in half barehanded, tore off the branches and carried it inside to fill the forge. With a thought it began heating it up. While closing the furnace shield he began the task of stripping an Enchanter’s runes and put his own unique brand to better use. Everything, including the hammers chisels and shapers got an upgrade. Meanwhile his other hand wrote new spells all around, including within the sapphire line. The dual energies he wields couldn’t be skirted. Imbuing it himself made sure he ruled this room and not even Zagan could physically cross. Only one thing would allow passage. An unbreakable curse more reliable than a blood oath. The curse would separate friend from foe. The team could pass on their willingly accepted curse, but Fate and the Spirit King would be helpless.
The forge heated up quickly, but would need no less than a day to thoroughly be ready. Smoke as well as flames though began heating the generator drum. Reaching a boil, steam spun turbines and charged one of Tattoo’s energy storage inventions. They are battery-like cells that would never need replacing unless damaged. With it on and working, lights turned on throughout the building.
A gentle boom interrupted the last few things in Kanade’s rapid story since arriving. She and Ethan looked to the double doors and felt a familiar mind, but profoundly more powerful. “I’ve returned. I’m coming.”
Flurries and howling wind of snow and power allowed for flight without wings. Ethan told Dress they needed privacy and would call when needed. The animated dresser winked and the filigree face vanished. He and Kanade stood and opened the large sliding glass doors as a whiteout blizzard blinded them. Not even a silhouette could be seen nor heard.
And just as quickly the blizzard blinded, it vanished.
“Can’t be.” Ethan’s eyes were as wide as a dinner plate. Kanade found herself beaten speechless yet again.
Kyoko had changed more drastically than either expected. She stood fifteen feet three inches tall, but that wasn’t what was so striking. A simple, sleeveless white dress molded to knockout curves. It was made much like Kanade’s in a simple gown that brushed the ankles, but had a deep plunging neckline that reached the bottom of her sternum to emphasize enormously round breasts as large as her own head. Four inch high heels weren’t much overall, but it did make her somehow more a woman, not that it was required. Her usually pale skin didn’t glow now, but looked just like freshly fallen snow in purity. Her lips were a much deeper blue, almost indigo and fuller than ever. Perfectly trimmed fingernails and toes were painted soft pink. Loose, waist length white hair lay like a curtain behind her elegant back, with a few teasing strands brushing between her open bosom. But of all the changes were in her face. She no longer had Asian ancestry, but more Brazilian. High cheekbones had natural blue undertones of blushing. A sharper nose was now more pert and feminine angles sharper. All that remained through the transition were her slanted, snowflake eyes.
Then those sinfully thick lips parted and the ensuing voice was louder, but exactly the same confident softness. “How do I look, My Loves?”
“Uhhh.” He made noise at least.
“You’re drooling, Ethan-sama.” Kyoko giggled into her demure hand.
“Kyoko?”
“It is me, Kanade-chan. Now let me give you something properly long overdue.” The Yuki-onna sashayed over, wrapped her arms around Kanade’s neck and stood on the tips of her toes to bring the woman down.
The kiss caught Kanade by complete surprise and it broke the hold shock made. Her mouth opened and their tongues met sweetly, slow and was full of love. Her arms wrapped around Kyoko’s back to realize the dress was backless. The underlying scent of Ethan running through Kyoko’s veins had her pull it so their breasts squeezed one another. She moaned along with the other woman, heart pounding against their chests and desire building.
Before getting carried away Kyoko broke the kiss and leaned back, but didn’t unwrap her hands. “Now that was a proper kiss. I can tell my true form pleases you.”
“Actually I’m jealous of your boobs. They’re bigger than mine!” Kanade chuckled, not letting go either.
“I wish I had your amazing legs. We’ll just admire our best assets and call it even, Love-chan.” She kissed the winged beauty one more time before letting go and turning around to look over the landscape. “At long last I get to lay eyes on this place. All my life I listened to the mistresses speak of its splendor. So much hardship and all worth it.” She let out a long held sigh of relief. “It is more beautiful than I ever dared to imagine.”
“It is not as beautiful as you.” Rumbled Ethan.
Kyoko turned to notice the mammoth bulge in his pants and looked up into his eyes to see them glow literally like hot coals. Sparks around his horns popped and swirled like angry silver hornets. Her cheeks responded by blushing blue and the temperature dropped to even out what came off him. Nipples poked through the sheer dress’s material.
Kanade wasn’t mad at all as she had expected. Ethan’s words were stolen from her own suddenly dry mouth.
“How I’ve waited for this more.” Kyoko said as she slid the sleeves of the dress off her smooth shoulders and gravity pulled the material off. Like a waterfall it dropped down her body. With a quick motion she took off her shoes and walked forward.
Ethan snapped his fingers and at once both he and Kanade were also naked.
Kyoko paused as she looked at his painfully engorged dick and licked her lips. Kanade though said “Darlin’, your bigger and what are those ridges!”
The other woman reached out and stroked the firm shaft and elicited a deep growl of pleasure from him. “Kanade-chan, it is natural as I was told. One on one mating isn’t enough for them. His cock alters and grows with more mates all on its own. It is where the term came from as a little brain. It wants to quickly and multiply pleasure us. It also makes more potent semen.” In her hand it lit aflame in a vortex of a miniature tornado.
Unable to hold on anymore Ethan exploded all over with desire and scooped both women in either arm and threw them through the opening, into the room and onto the spacious bed. A deep growl had both women pause and stare as he approached. His eyes burned with hotter coals, bringing forth their wild feminine side. Both mewled in their own way, like a moan of desire that wanted him. Needing him to fulfill their base desires.
His weight pressed onto the bed and the two of them got up to crawl closer. Kanade stole his lips and Kyoko’s mouth opened wide to take him and use both hands to stroke the shaft. His hips thrust accordingly.
Under the hands of an expert sexual deviant many thousands of years old he roared as he came. Through the fire surrounding his swollen member her demure and slender hands were coated in slick ice and the strange new sensation forced a sudden reaction as he roared in release. Kyoko’s mouth filled with the warm sweetness, but as soon as Kanade’s instincts smelled it she shoved him back and put her mouth with a claim on Kyoko’s. A long tongue tasting it as the other woman swallowed and hummed with genuine pleasure. Kanade growled in mild irritation till cool fingers rubbed her clit and turned it into a moaning purr. Her hips bucked as she panted while kissing before being rolled over and kissed down her neck, had her breasts loved and teased and gasped as Kyoko’s maw sweetly tortured her to a swift and loud climax. Larger ice balls fell from Kyoko’s mouth and were inserted into the creamy entrance.
The mix of fire caressing her skin and ice filling the inside was impossible to deny as a single fist readied her for what was to come soon. Kanade was in helpless ecstasy, erupting again and again.
A rumble from behind scared Kyoko as huge hand grabbed her hips and felt Ethan’s rough, catlike tongue send her to see stars and held her there. Her large snowflake eyes flew wild in innocent surprise till rolling up into her skull. Simultaneously a long tail snaked and wrapped itself around Kanade’s hips like a belt before being suddenly jerked and she screamed in more pain than pleasure as his still straight cock found a home with unerring accuracy.
She found his size increase was too much all at once and his forcible thrust to the hilt stretched her almost to breaking. The hard balls of ice not helping matters. Spots dotted her vision of flame and Kyoko above her, pale hair thrown to the side as her arms stiffly kept her up, but she was creating more cold air all around her at war with the furnace of unending heat, but would never win.
He pulled out and the ribs all along the thick shaft were like ruts on a dirt road after a storm. Then he thrust again and her orgasm was instant, washing the pain away. Her nails dug into his hips like talons as she was lost in uncontrollable orgasm. Kanade’s orgasm gained his attention and he sat Kyoko’s quivering body aside and as soon as she was out of the way Kanade let go of his hips and leaned up to sink her nails into his back and locked her body flush against his. Cinnamon and woman assaulted and sent the senses reeling. He growled in pleasure as he grabbed her bare ass, leaned her back onto the bed and slid the washboard-like shaft in and out. To muffle her screams of pleasure he winced for a moment as her teeth sunk into the left muscle of his shoulder. He powered his flaming lance fast again and again, biting into her neck as she exposed it. She arched her back, cutting lines down his back and making him slam harder.
