Chapter 236: What Do You Have To Fear? {**}
"A massage? Oh please," Krion said while waving him off, "Do I really look like someone who can't relieve their own stress?"
As she spoke, the Cardinal snapped her fingers and conjured six hands of Spiritual energy that flexed with a readiness to deliver the service Evian just offered.
"And have those hands helped you find relief?" Evian asked with a smile.
"Not yet, but it WILL pass," Krion said, "Why don't we return to the issues."
"But your aches are the issues though. How can your words and tone be reliable when I'll just keep thinking it's influenced by discomfort."
"Ridiculous," Krion said.
"What do you have to lose?" Evian asked while twiddling his fingers, "What do you have to fear?"
Krion just glared at him without saying a word so Evian knew he had her right where he wanted her and all she needed was a little push,
"I assure you I have techniques and skills perfectly suited to this… situation."
"Oh, why not, I guess," Krion eventually said as she let out a sigh before she gestured for him to come closer,
"Get over here and let's see what you've got."
"An honor," Evian told her with a dastardly smile.
He walked to Krion's chair and stood behind it as she pulled down her outer robe to show off her shoulders that were exposed in the silk gown she wore underneath.
Evian cracked his knuckles and then gently lay them on the smooth skin of the Cardinal's body. There were just too many conditions at play at the moment that Evian felt it would be such a waste not to take advantage.
First, because she felt she was not in any 'danger' of getting aroused at the touch of a man, Krion relaxed around Evian and that was no doubt one of the thoughts that ran through her mind to allow him to get so close and place his hand on her body with her permission.
Second, from the moment he was sure he had actually noticed the Cardinal's discomfort, it took only a bit of focus for Evian to see that the cause went further than the physical. There were impurities in Krion's body. Impurities caused by the intense concentration of the darkness of the Abyss she had been exposed to the night before.
As the actual target of the assault, Evian was almost sure other Cardinals were facing the same. Krion was right to think it would eventually pass and Evian was right to assert that he would be able to give her relief much faster than 'eventually'.
In fact, with his hands on Krion's body, all he had to do was absorb the impurities and the discomfort would be gone but that would not be taking adequate advantage of the situation so instead, he made use of the Innate ability he had received as a Wraith Prince;
[Master Of The Abyss]
The summary of the latest Innate ability Evian had received was that he had now received a designated domain in the Abyss where he held a natural advantage, especially against creatures of Spiritual energy.
As a realm that existed in the material and immaterial, the Abyss was near infinite in size, gaining command of a tiny, almost inconsequential, portion of it was not all that impressive in the grand scheme of things but certainly served as a boost for a Wraith roaming the land of the living.
Evian could call upon the energy within his Abyssal domain and heal any wound he had no matter how grievous it was but in that moment, he would be overwhelmed with an intense madness that would make him incapable of differentiating between ally or foe and strive to kill everything in sight and absorb their essence or Souls.
If he was in a location where there was nothing to kill and no Soul/Essence to devour, the penalty was an aggressive pull into the Abyss, outside his domain and rather into a neutral zone where he would no doubt get cannibalized.
Evian could also summon his domain to the world of the Living but would require extensive preparation similar to what Agenon had required for the events of last night.
Anyway, although a Wraith cannot take command of another's domain, the impurities caused by the events last night were now much too detached from their source that they were Evian's to manipulate.
Evian brought his Compendium to mind and picked out two of the simplest Wraithic symbols that he had managed to combine and created a 'unique' paralysis symbol that had an aftereffect of Euphoria.
He sneaked the symbol past Krion's senses by using the impurities as a cover and used it to control the impurities so their effects moved from discomfort to a relaxing and slightly pleasurable sensation.
"~Ohhh~" The cardinal closed her eyes slowly and let out a shudder before then her eyes snapped in astonishment,
"Wow, you do know your stuff!" She said with such instantaneous relief.
"Thank you, Ma'am," Evian said graciously, "And I told you so."
Krion chuckled and settled into the hands now molding the skin and muscles of her shoulders,
"~Hmm~ Yes you did. Now, about last night…"
"No, No, No. Shhhhhh— No talking. Just relax and enjoy. This won't take long," Evian interrupted her to say.
"Of course," Krion agreed and closed her eyes.
She had tried helping her ache with Spiritual energy before attempting the magical massaging hands but the impurities seemed almost ingrained with her insides that her Spiritual energy seared through her in its attempt to free her. She gladly picked discomfort over that pain knowing it would only last a while longer anyways.
But now, she could feel as if the decadent impurities in her body were getting pooled together and 'exorcised' bit by bit and in return making her feel so relaxed and even slightly pleasured.
Incredible.
Having gained situational trust from the Cardinal, Evian proceeded with the next part of taking advantage of this opportunity by using the impurities to gain access to Krion's mind and slowly pull her into some part of his mental realm. He only went far enough to access fantasies and not too far in that, the Cardinal would discover what he was up to. Experience tales with m v|l e'm,p y r
For Cardinal Lillian Krion, only a minute after she closed hers, she arrived in a dimly lit room. She was naked in this imaginative manifestation and the woman who materialized after was the same.
The lady who joined her had features that appealed to the Cardinal's tastes and although Lilian Krion recognized this as imaginative fantasies she on occasion engaged in, she wondered why the face of her partner was shrouded by such strange darkness. And why, despite the anonymity of it all, did this seem far more real than any imagination could ever be?
Lillian could feel Evian's hands on her shoulders as he continued to work out her kinks and exorcise her impurities and with just a thought she could have pulled herself from this vivid imagination but how could she do that when this shrouded beauty (she assumed by the exposed body) grabbed her waist and pulled her close until their lips pressed together.
"~Mnnghhhh~"
With the advantage of not being rooted in reality, Lillian was completely at the mercy of the faceless woman and she let herself go and melt into the sensations washing all over her body.
Outside, Evian, privy to what she was experiencing smiled as though amazed as she managed to keep herself in check outwardly despite the pleasure her mind was being subjected to.
Meanwhile, as the kiss deepened and her partner began to hump their naked bodies together, Lillian Krion felt a protrusion pressing into the mound of her crotch. She managed to pull free of her partner's lips and looked down to see an appendage bow dangling between the legs of the shrouded lady.
Surprised that she was not instantly repulsed, Lillian looked up at her partner's shrouded face and she saw the lady's lips stretch into a lascivious smile that showed off all of her canines and shook her entire body with desire greater than what she was already feeling.
Her shrouded partner did not have to say a word and Lillian knew what was expected of her. Information flowed into her mind as she grabbed the appendage and went on her knees. While this was ordinarily not her preference, Lillian Krion was not unaware of the mechanics of relationships that involved this appendage.
What was surprising was that she knew just what to do. Even stranger was that the information was being fed to her from a third-person perspective. Like she was being lectured and guided by one who knew just how the act felt to receive rather than to give.
Lillian started sucking on the rod's tip and her body was subjected to occasional spasms as it hardened in her hold. She licked all around the organ. Tickled it and licked under its ridge before she began to take it, inch by inch, down her throat.
Lillian Krion eventually took her hand off the imposing cock and stretched both her arms up until her fingers touched her partner's underboob and then grabbed and squeezed the ample peaks.
Minutes passed of Lillian sucking and then she realized the breasts she was holding on to were sinking and flattening against her partner's chest. She felt it as her partner's shape changed even from the thighs her face was directly in front of.
She raised her eyes with the rod still in her mouth and saw her 'lady' partner had inexplicably become a man and the face —No longer shrouded— that looked down at her looked suspiciously like that of the young man currently massaging her shoulders!
