Chapter 242 [Bonus ] 98: True Bloodline
?
He felt lost in the darkness, his body filled with intense pain as if chains were hooked into his muscles and flesh, tearing them apart before black flames were used to sear and char his organs, then black ice to freeze his burnt body, dousing the fire.
'It burns, as if my soul is being explored, my foolishness and cowardice exposed... So many times, I could have done this alone, yet fear dominated my heart and mind... What dumb shit... I can do better?'
'Pathetic...'
Zell's actions replayed before his eyes while the shards of ice slowly pierced through his body, the blood frozen before it could even drip, before the ice shattered, becoming brilliant flames that began to process once again.
Suddenly, his eyes were forced open.
Thousands of eyes peered from the void, all looking at him with judgmental and mocking gazes, before a rumble of noise, distorted and loud, rang inside his ears, slowly transforming into words.
A strange language, but he knew it well; it was nostalgic.
"Why did you fear something as pathetic as a demon?"
"What foolish words; I will do better?"
"How did you become our persona?"
"Rika loved you so dearly; why did you neglect her?"
"Is this truly your best? If so, let me take the reigns and become our head!"
"Useless false king, we are stronger, more powerful. Let us become the ones steering our fate!"
His body began to convulse; each time they spoke, insulted or mocked him, the flames became more intense, the ice sharpening as it continued to temper his false body mercilessly.
From the start, this wasn't his true body, more like a puppet created to house his mind and thoughts.
A mere socket for his gemstone.
Why did his magic need to use an inferior system to work?
How did it take him so long to efficiently use his wings and skills as a demon?
"Discard your false vessel!"
"Accept the true bloodline!"
The voices began to chant in the dark, hell-like speech, while his body felt like it became more distant from his mind; the pain and suffering vanished as he found himself in a strange room; it was like a mirror of the room he first appeared when reincarnated.
'Nostalgic...'
A woman's body appeared, similar to Astra back then, but this time. She felt different; a powerful emotion was directed towards him, bordering obsession.
"You're finally here~ I waited so long for you to appear!"
Zell's spirit-like shape looked to her, his body and face formless, apart from his single red eye, the trauma of losing an eye causing his soul to remember the loss.
"Who are you?"
He thought this was some dream world, a place only he could exist; then, who was this woman interrupting his eternal torment for never living up to his words?
I always rely on the stupid trope of "I'll work harder" or "I am better than this" and never make much effort.
"Zenovia, goddess of love and passion~ or if you're being vulgar. The demon goddess of sex! Ah~ but I'm a virgin, okay... my hole is only for the man whom I've chosen... Don't be jealous...!"
She acted strange; her beautiful purple hair and slightly tanned skin were his type; somehow, her fine details seemed slightly blurry, likely due to his weak will to become a slave to her looks if he saw them.
"Ah, it's nice to meet such an amiable and pretty goddess..." His words were truthful; was it due to his form being a spirit? He couldn't seem to speak any false words or lies!?
Suddenly her body approached him, gently stroking his cheeks; the strange sensation was like his body was made from water and smoke.
"Don't worry; it's not just you. I also cannot lie in this room; I am sure if that stuck-up bitch Astra entered, she would admit to wanting to bang you and lock you away to keep you all for herself. Fufu~!"
'She claimed she couldn't lie; that woman hates my guts and betrayed me.'
He took a step backwards, only to be dragged into the soft arms of Zenovia; her body was soft, even though spirit he could feel her ample breasts squashing against him.
The sensation almost caused him to discharge, an embarrassing feeling but a testament to her sex appeal as the goddess of succubi.
Her long, delicate finger began to shake in front of his eyes as she clicked her tongue, it was rather cute, but he didn't speak.
"Dearest brother... Why would I lie to you, the only man to see my naked body?"
'Can she read my mind!?'
Zell was shocked, but suddenly, a void sounded like echoes around the room; it was Zenovia's tone, but different from before... it was...
'Brothers scent, brother's body, brothers cock, brothers saliva... brother, my brother... you came back to me... brother, I want you, brother, you have to want me... ahh~ being so close to my brother and not being able to violate him hurts my heart....'
INSANE!
"Oh my~ you heard something secret... A maiden will cry, you know?"
"Ah, sorry, your voice is cute, though..."
'Cute, cute, cute, cute brother called me cute...!'
Her arms became more powerful, holding him tightly as her lips began to kiss his ethereal form; although he couldn't enjoy it properly, the sensation of her sticky lips, the slimy wet feel of her tongue as it slid along his face and body was clear!
"Wait...wait... I am here for a reason, right?"
Zenovia quickly wiped her sticky lips.
"Ahem... well.... yes...!"
She guided his body to the white chair, the old computer identical to the previous, except the choices were gone.
Instead, the image of his body on the ground missing all its limbs, bleeding out slowly, as Garnet fought against the demon prince named Amon.
"That guy wants to kill your big sister~ so scary...! Zell beat the bad guy up!"
"What's going on? Why can I see my own body, the events just happening?"
'This doesn't make sense... it's strange... I don't want to know...!'
Zenovia's body wrapped around his back, embracing him gently as her hands stroked his ghostly hair, breathing down his neck.
"My dear brother... You were here the whole time."
"!?"
"The game, did you never wonder why magic, your racial abilities, even emotions were so distant as if there was a veil around them and why your cock would change so easily? Did you think a system created for a human by a goddess that hates humans would be so convenient?"
"Eh, didn't that mean I wasn't making enough effort? If that world is a game... then is it all fake!? All the women I love... their heat, warmth and affection... My anger and hatred... the things I achieved?"
"Shhh! Let big sister finish~ I am the older sister now, be good, and I'll kiss you deeply."
Zenovia placed a finger on his lip, squishing them slightly as she caressed his mouth.
"It's all real, everything. From you fucking those girls, making that slutty siren pregnant and almost seeding the ice dragon who is technically my little niece... so strange..."
"The idea is pretty simple... this is your prison."
"This white room?"
"Mn!"
"They were scared of your power, so when you died that day, they trapped your soul in this place, tearing your undying body asunder and locking it away in the planet Asteria. Silly divines... Because they were too desperate to stop you from reviving, they placed you in the one world you could restore yourself..."
"Is my body the human Zell?"
Her face looked sad before stroking his cheek, like a mother soothing her crying child.
"You are not Zell, the human known as Zell died on his 5th birthday. As did his parents."
"Eh, but..!?"
That couldn't be true, his memories of them went to his 18th birthday, sure his mother died sooner, but his father was in hospital... How could it be a lie when even his friends could remember them!?
"Eros~ can you still not remember anything, even if your big sister lets you rub her tits? We don't belong here... Come~ accept the loving embrace of your big sister Harm-- Zenovia!"
Zell's mind was filled with many memories, those of these words, memories of Vincent... when he was a mere vampire...
Sometimes suffering, other times becoming a great emperor and in the most distant memories, he shared the same bed as his sister, born from the same mother, a true goddess of minor mythology...
Cast away from their home due to their chaotic loves backlash.
However, that didn't matter now; it was in the past and currently, his only desire was the woman he now loved dearly and would give his soul to protect.
"Zenovia, why are you telling me this now?"
"Because it's time you left this prison; for more than 10,000 years, I have been attacking this place through countless lives, dimensions, worlds, and planes, and finally, thanks to your actions, I could make the tiniest crack!"
Her words and the period were too grand for him; despite the memories flooding back, his true form, feelings and passion sealed away, stopping his growth and power from flooding into that world.
"Can I go back... To her?" He said seriously, pointing to the heavily wounded Garnet, who almost lost her left arm to a brutal magical explosion.
"Does brother want to go back?"
"I do!"
"Nn..."
Zenovia's body trembled slightly, but her face on the monitor showed a huge, broad smile as the hand pressing him became firmer, her body pressing against him a little harder.
"It will be tough; you won't have any help anymore; you might become targeted."
"Still, do you want to return?"
He watched the small screen, remembering the feeling and warmth of all the women he met, realising how much he cared for them, even the girls that were not his lovers yet.
"I must."
"Okay, it just means we will meet a little later... a few years... at most, big sister will not cry."
She suddenly parted from his body as a huge lance of darkness materialised in her arms before she turned away, looking to a slightly dark corner that seemed to stain the room that was pure white otherwise.
"Once I pierce this cell, you will return to your true state, although Zell, you will no longer be that fake puppet; some women saw your true self, those feline sisters and the rabbit... Others will have to adapt and accept your changes slowly..."
"That's not important!"
"Can I beat them!"
His words were loud and passionate as he looked at the two demons, Azmael and Azarel, turning towards Garnet, preparing to sneak attack her.
"Them? Probably easily if one-on-one, but two-on-one will be a little tricky." Zenovia said, her cute face closing one eye as she tilted her head.
"But, you will surpass them easily, as this world's system no longer holds you back. Kill, seduce, devour, copulate. The more you do these things, the stronger you will get, so even that bastard who hurt you will soon become your little bitch."
"Hahaha... Please send me back." Zell said, his body moving closer to the darkness before turning back to Zenovia with a strange smile on his ethereal face.
The next moment, her body exploded with a dark purple aura, pushing all her power into the spear.
She thrust towards the darkness, a crackling sound, as her aura burst out, destroying the strange white barrier with a loud crack before Zell's body was sucked away.
His captivating words reached her ears, and as her body became fainter, this avatar was doomed to vanish.
"I'll make sure to come to you soon and make you my little bitch too~ so don't be too jealous. Harmonia"
The next moment, Zell felt like flying through the air, suffering countless G's as he watched the strange planets and dark space moving rapidly around him.
'Just wait, Garnet; I will stop you from suffering further!'
His face filled with determination, as his body shot to Asteria like a meteor.
