Chapter 319 - Shared Wishes
A few minutes ago, in one of Argerim moons.
In front of a really high tower, there is a large circle of different colors on the floor. This is a portal enchantment of the same kind that Michael has saved so many resources for years to do for Lucien and his sisters.
In the middle of the almost complete circle, there is a beautiful lady finis.h.i.+ng it with a powder of crushed magical treasures. It is not the best way to use that energy, but destroying and crus.h.i.+ng is the favorite way of that lady, and it's fast.
The beautiful lady is 1.73 meters tall, and her whole body can be described as 'abundant.' Starting from the bottom, she has long legs and thick t.h.i.g.hs, which go perfectly well with the really big juicy a.s.s of hers.
With wide h.i.p.s and a thin waist, her low and middle body can already kill a man with just a look. But they would die sad not to be able to see her huge and perfectly round b.r.e.a.s.ts.
Her face does not lose in terms of beauty for her body because she has extremely stunning and perfect features. She is definitely not in the 'very slim' type because even her lips are 'succulent,' which actually matches her perfectly.
Above her delicate nose, a pair of yellow-green eyes always have a 'sharp' expression as she is always ready for a good fight.
And to finish her incredible look, there is her most unique and impressive feature: Long hair that was once blue and red, but today has a mixture of both in what can only be described as a masterpiece in shades of blue, red, and purple.
The lady can only be Donna, the new host of the wrath sin.
And she is not at all happy as she finishes the portal in the same way she started it: alone.
"d.a.m.n, Sophia!! You really didn't help me." Donna complains for the tenth or eleventh time.
"..."
"I understood that you are now with Sloth... but come on; you could at least use your magic." Donna continues to use the magic powder to make symbols on the floor, as the voice in her head explains.
"..."
"Sophia? Are you going to leave me talking to alone like someone crazy?"
"..."
"Sop-" Donna looks back and realizes that Sophia is sleeping on her floating fluffy pouffe.
"d.a.m.n you, Sophia!!" Donna easily gets furious and throws the pot of magic powder towards Sophia.
*Thud*
But the pot is blocked and repelled by the various defensive barriers around Sophia.
Still, Sophia wakes up because of that noise and slowly opens her eyes as she stretches. "Hmm... what... is... happening... here?"
In the past few weeks, even Sophia's tone of voice has become slow, which makes Donna stressed. "F.u.c.k it!! You took my fun, saying that we must get together with the others as soon as possible, but you did nothing to help me with the d.a.m.n portal!"
Sophia was awake in her dreams, but her body was sleeping, and still feels like sleeping, which makes her yawn slowly.
"It's okay, Donna... there are no more opponents for you here... we have to get together with hi- them... also, I'm a mother now, and I have to relax so that my baby is born healthy," Sophia speaks slowly.
Donna blushes with rage as she remembers Sophia's baby. [It was with Luci... it can't be right, can it?]
Then, from a cloud of red smoke next to Donna, a demon materialize her body.
Slightly shorter than Donna, Wrath is 1.71 meters tall. She has a well-balanced body but with unique characteristics such as gray-pinkly skin, feet that resemble a beast's hooves, and a long tail of medium thickness.
She has medium-sized wings that don't come from her low back like L.u.s.t and Envy but also don't come from her up back like Lucien's, but her middle back. Also, her wings are red and have a few sharp bone tips.
Although Wrath definitely doesn't have an ugly face, she does have many scars on her skin, which actually look like they have some kind of design on purpose, similar to something as a tattoo.
Her face also has delicate features like a tiny nose and mouth, thin and long ears like an elf's, and beautiful yellow twinkling eyes.
Of course, she also has very impressive horns. Very long and thick, Wrath's onyx horns come from the side of the top of her forehead to the sides of her head, making a slight upward curve and then a downward slope.
To finish her peculiar and impressive look, she has medium-sized gray hair that usually sits in a ponytail or other practical hairstyle as she doesn't care so much about having a beautiful appearance.
Wrath looks at Sophia with a sorry expression. "Foolish girl, do you really believe you are pregnant with your brother?"
Sophia doesn't even feel like answering that question because she knows that Wrath doubts it since she told Donna, but Sophia is sure that she is carrying the fruit of her and Lucien's love in her w.o.m.b.
Wrath is annoyed that Sophia is so naive. "Didn't Sloth tell you? Our hosts have tried everything before... but no one has ever succeeded because it is impossible. Our demonic energy is very powerful and unstable; that does not allow a child to be generated by us."
"You are ignoring the b.l.o.o.d.y rose." Sophia comments.
Wrath snorts. "Buls.h.i.+t. Even if the b.l.o.o.d.y rose gives you power, there is no way it can control our demonic energy. On the contrary, the b.l.o.o.d.y rose is yet another powerful and unstable energy that also prevents you from becoming pregnant."
Before Sophia responds, Sloth materializes beside her. Still with the body of a beautiful m.a.t.u.r.e human, she slowly floats in the air with her eyes closed.
Sloth is not ashamed of her original form, but since she took on a human form to facilitate creating a friends.h.i.+p with Sophia, she, well, is too lazy to change to her real form.
"I also believe that she is pregnant. Sophia has an incredible life affinity, boosted by the b.l.o.o.d.y rose and my demonic energy, which naturally fits the element of life. Also, the boy... he may not be as simple as we think." Sloth speaks with slow pauses that leave Wrath and Donna in the mood to punch the ground.
While Wrath doesn't care what Sloth says, Donna listens to it carefully. Unlike Amelia, who is jealous of Eve's 'big sis' position, Donna just wants to help her siblings, support them as Eve did with her. Donna is just a few years younger than Eve and feels like a big sis to others.
She doesn't know yet how she feels about what Lucien and Sophia did, but she still loves and wants to protect them as before. Just she wants to wait for them to be together in the same room so she will give them both a good beating of punishment; after Eve does so that, of course.
Donna starts crus.h.i.+ng other magical treasures like weapons and especially storage treasures to make magic powder, while Wrath starts to be stressed by that strange conversation.
Wrath mocks at Sloth. "Alright... I know what you want. Envy has already joked with the wishes of all of us, and I remember yours..."
While Sophia is curious, Sloth shows no reaction. Her body remains immobile as she floats by magic.
Wrath laughs provocatively. Provoking is natural for her, who wants to arouse the fury of others as well as keep her own always high.
"Have children..." She says in a sarcastic tone. "You are really strange, Sloth. What kind of mother do you think you would be if you had the opportunity?"
"..." Sloth is silent even when Wrath mocks at her deepest d.e.s.i.r.e.
Wrath laughs as he approaches Sloth and speaks in a loud tone. "A NEGLIGENT MOTHER!"
"Shut up!!" Sloth does not answer Wrath, but Sophia cannot let her partner be insulted that way, especially when it comes to such a serious matter for a woman.
Wrath takes delight in the mood, getting tense. Fury is as good for her as jealousy is for Envy, and that is why they will always be arousing those feelings even if they don't want to because their whole being is about that. Her d.e.s.i.r.e for anger is even stronger than a human's d.e.s.i.r.e for breath.
She mocks Sophia too. "What about you? Do you really think you would be a good mother if you were really pregnant? How would that be? Would the father have to look after the child all the time while you sleep?"
Sophia is confused, as she is so happy to be pregnant that she cannot think negatively. "I... I... I don't need to sleep all the time..."
Wrath laughs, not falsely, but because she is happy to know that she can get Sloth's fury for the first time.
She looks at Sophia with a thoughtful expression, clearly fake. "Wait, didn't Sloth explain to you how your demonic energy works?"
"..." Sophia makes a concerned expression.
Wrath quickly explains. "You are getting stronger so fast because you just have to do nothing and remain in the dream world. However, you have no way to improve this technique because there is no way to do less than nothing. That is, while we can improve our generation of demonic energy so that it doesn't take a long time to advance in high realms, you'll have to spend all your time sleeping, and even so, you will soon be much weaker than us."
Sophia can't help but make a sad expression. She knows how her demonic energy generation works because Sloth explained that in detail. She's getting stronger incredibly fast, but their method can't get any better than that.
Well, that is what they think without knowing how Lucien and Amelia are mixing their demonic energy and creating something totally new.
Wrath thinks Sloth will soon be mad at her provocations, so she continues. "So, silly girl, could you take care of a child with illusions while stands in the dream world? Or will your brother be the poor child's father and mother at the same time?"
Sophia starts to get really upset and sad, but then she hears Sloth's calm voice in her mind. 'Do not worry; my sister is like that... in fact, they are all complicated. Wrath is also mad because of our limitations, so she wants to make us angry to get stronger and feel less fragile, but that doesn't mean you can't be a good mother and things can't end up totally bad for you and your family.'
"..." Sophia sighs before responding to Sloth. 'I know... but I'm not so naive as to believe that our future will be beautiful and perfect. Just... if Lucien and I have time to raise our children, even if we die to the b.l.o.o.d.y rose or enemies of the demonic race, they've lived for thousands of years; the living proof of our love.'
'It's a beautiful way of thinking...' Sloth responds. So she quickly thinks about something and speaks honestly. 'If you are pregnant and have the child smoothly, which I am almost sure will happen, I will do everything in my power to give you the maximum amount of time to raise your children with Lucien.'
'I trust you, my friend.' Sophia says. Then she complements. 'Also, your d.e.s.i.r.e to be a mother will be shared with me throughout our journey together, and I hope this will bring some comfort to your heart.'
'Mm.' Sloth just nods while feeling that Sophia is certainly the best person she could have chosen as a host, or rather, a partner.
