Endless Path : Infinite Cosmos

Chapter 2190: Rehearsal

Chapter 2190: Rehearsal

Darting around with such speed that the fabric of space and time distorted in their wake, the three Angels from the Actualized World of Dragon Ball couldn't help thinking Vahn was even more of a monster now that they had entered the Divine Realm. He was just sitting atop a make-shift throne, yet, no matter how they maneuvered or what attacks they threw at him, everything was intercepted or dispersed by a seemingly infinite number of golden chains.

Though it didn't function in the exact same manner, the Angels from Dragon Ball were capable of using an ability remarkably similar to Laplace's Key, the Perfected Ultra Instinct. It allowed them to dodge virtually any and all attacks without the need for conscious thought. At the absolute pinnacle of mastery, they could even allow attacks to phase harmless through them, as, from the perspective of the world, there was nothing that could touch them.

During his stay in the Actualized World of Dragon Ball, Vahn had experienced the pinnacle of Ultra Instinct during his battle against the Grand Priest. The relatively short Angel had even forced him to activate Bankai for a brief moment, as, no matter what kind of attacks were thrown at him, he just evaded or phased through them with a smile.

Unfortunately for the blue-skinned trio, they were nowhere near the level of their father. Even Kusu, the eldest yet most diminutive of the Angels, was only given a Grade of S when her Perfected Ultra Instinct was converted into a Gift known as Autonomous Sovereign. It allowed her to dodge most attacks, but, due to her lack of Authority, there were quite a number of Gifts that could affect both her and her sisters.

As an SSS-Rank Gift, Enkidu may as well be the nemesis of anyone who was proud of their speed, strength, and durability. Its Intangibility allowed it to emerge from the void without producing so much as a single sound. Thus, unless you had an extrasensory ability related to space and time, it could appear without notice, instantaneously binding you with its luminous golden links.

With an SSS-Rank Sealing Ability, Enkidu was capable of restraining and rendering pretty much anything in the Order of Creation powerless. To make matters worse, at least for Vahn's opponents, even something as simple as contact was enough to trigger the effect, so, even if you possessed an artifact or Gift capable of deflecting Intangible objects, it would spontaneously lose said Ability the moment Enkidu made contact. In other words, the only way to deal with Enkidu was to avoid it. Any and all other methods were futile.

Unfortunately, once again for Vahn's opponents, Enkidu's effect was limited to people and objects. It could also influence the space, and, to an extent, the Laws within a given area. Vahn merely had to produce Enkidu along the edges of his domain and everything within, himself included, would have their power sealed. The only difference was, unlike the vast majority of people, he was able to resist the effects of Enkidu thanks to his training. In fact, the longer he was under its effects, the less influence it would have over him.

Thanks to the aforementioned effects, Vahn was able to sit atop his temporary throne, smiling as he watched Kusu, Vados, and Marcarita trying to resist Enkidu's slow yet unstoppable encroachment. He wasn't even controlling it, as, the moment it advanced to S-Rank, a nascent Ego had developed within the resplendent golden chains. It was capable of learning and making decisions on its own, so, while this scenario was supposed to be a rehearsal for the upcoming Gift Game, the truth of the matter was that Vahn simply wanted to give Enkidu the opportunity to accumulate experience. If it could ensnare the trio of Angels, who couldn't it catch?

To their credit, Kusu, Vados, and Marcarita were able to hold out for seventeen days before the youngest of the trio ended up receiving a small cut to her ankle. This was more than enough to trigger the effects of Enkidu, and, as a result, Marcarita subsequently found herself bound in a rather compromising position. This wasn't enough to distract Kusu and Vados, but, as the three of them had been working together to bend and distort the surrounding space to their benefit, the loss of Marcarita placed a tremendous amount of pressure on the markedly older Angels.

In the end, even Kusu only lasted an additional three hours, as, fifteen minutes after the capture of Marcarita, Vados followed suit. She also ended up in a rather compromising position, but, much like her sister, she didn't appear even remotely flustered. Rather, due to their genuine interest in Vahn and the mission given to them by their father, all three sisters had come to expect such outcomes as an 'inevitability'. After all, Vahn had already 'claimed' them even before their departure from the Actualized World.

Had she tried her hardest, Kusu could have easily lasted a few more days. She was the oldest of her father's children, and, as a result, she had been created with much higher specs than her brothers and sisters. She was also the most expressive, as, during the era of her creation, the Universes had yet to exist. In other words, she hadn't been born with the same duty as her other siblings. Instead, she had lounged about for millions of years before begging her father to let her become the Guide Angel for Universe 10.

Simply put, Kusu was the most emotive, and, as a result, the most impressionable of the Angels. She would often feel envious of her younger brothers and sisters, so, seeing Vados and Marcarita sitting with Vahn atop his throne, it was actually quite commendable that she had lasted three whole hours before letting herself be captured.

Fortunately, Vados, Marcarita, and pretty much all their fellow Angels were used to handling their eldest sister. They even doted on her quite a bit, as, despite the vast disparity in their ages, Kusu was much smaller than the other Angels. She was also the only one who could visit the Grand Priest whenever she wanted, so, for this, and a variety of other reasons, the younger Angels did their best to stay in Kusu's good graces…

One of the 'neat' things about Perfected Ultra Instinct, or, in this case, Autonomous Sovereign, was that it compelled the user to move in the most efficient manner in any and all situations. It wasn't simply used for combat. If the user didn't want to get wet, they could even walk casually through a downpour without a single droplet of water touching them…

Benefitting from this 'peculiarity' to the fullest, Vahn enjoyed his time with the three sisters quite a bit. They were three of the only girls, bar a few Tier 5s and quite a number of Sex Goddesses, that could keep up with him in the bedroom. They also had remarkably developed 'service' mentalities, so, even if he decided to just kick back and relax, Vahn didn't have to worry about the trio feeling even remotely dissatisfied. Rather, much like Fenrir, Jeanne, and a few of Vahn's more devout lovers, they were much happier getting him off rather than being serviced in turn.

Though he was a pretty down to Earth person, Vahn was still an Emperor, a Dragon, and a God. He enjoyed being pampered quite a bit, so, taking advantage of the fact he was seated atop a throne, he allowed the trio to service and entertain him as they might an Emperor. This involved Vados and Marcarita sitting at his sides, the former affectionately tracing her long and slender fingers over his muscles while the latter skillfully pumped his penis. While this was going on, Kusu, demonstrating a skill she had picked up prior to becoming a Guide Angel, performed a playfully lascivious dance in garments reminiscent of an Arabic Belly Dancer.

While he would have preferred it if Vados or Marcarita were the one dancing, Vahn wasn't incapable of enjoying Kusu's performance. She enjoyed being the center of attention, so, even if she did trade places with one of her sisters, it wouldn't be long before she used a more 'direct' method to get his attention. Either way, whenever the four of them spent time together like this, Kusu was always the first and last of the sisters Vahn made love to. Vados and Marcarita didn't even try to compete with her.

Taking advantage of this 'privilege', Kusu did her best to appeal to Vahn with her dance before punctuating her performance with a series of cartwheels and a gravity-defying back handspring that brought her to a position where she was standing on his knees. She didn't have much to work with in regards to breasts, so, taking advantage of the fact she had been dancing and performing gymnastics for more than a hundred million years, Kusu gave Vahn a moment to admire her legs and butt before raising the sides of her pareo to reveal that she wasn't wearing panties.

Admiring the glossy blue cheeks, a smile developed across Vahn's face as Vados and Marcarita used their free hands to spread Kusu's perfectly sculpted posterior. Then, in a single fell swoop, the petite Angel lowered her hips without even needing to adjust her angle. Immediately thereafter, she used his thighs as support before sticking her legs out, feet brought together and toes pointed outward as if she were on a pommel horse, before swaying and bucking her waist in a manner that made it feel as though his glans were being kneaded by her insides. At the same time, without so much as a word between them, Vados and Marcarita leaned in to plant a kiss on each of Vahn's cheeks before mirroring each other as they traced their long, purple tongues toward his ears…

While Vahn was 'training' with Kusu, Vados, and Marcarita, everyone else who was participating in the Gift Game was hard at work sparring and practicing invasionary tactics. Vahn and the 'Throne Angels' would be protecting their planet. This made it 'impossible' for the Sage Dragon's Hearth to lose, but, for the sake of Vahn's future objectives, everyone was spending months at a time in one of Bulma's modified Rooms of Spirit and Time.

The penultimate goal of the Sage Dragon's Hearth was to secure the 1003rd or 1009th Gate by the end of the Gift Game. This would make things much easier for Vahn, so, while she would prefer to stay at his side and cuddle with him for the duration of the Gift Game, even Fenrir was pushing her limits each and every day. Her goal was to refine her magic and completely master her Bankai, so, alongside Arcueid and Eva, she had secluded herself in the veritable tundra that was her room.

As the success of the Sage Dragon's Hearth was their highest priority at the moment, many of the girls who set out to form their own Communities had temporarily returned. Arcueid and Eva weren't the only ones helping people train, either. Artoria was helping to train her fellow 'Saber Faces' while Ureko and Yuri, having developed a fondness for Kale and Caulifla, were wreaking havoc within one of Vahn's Game Boards. Even Blossom and her daughters had emerged from Vahn's Little Garden, not to train or participate in the coming battles, but to help everyone else rest and recuperate. After all, as important as training was, proper rest and relaxation were necessary for mental and spiritual development.

Body, mind, and spirit were the foundational pillars of strength. Without a proper balance between the three, the platform atop which you stood was bound to collapse…
