Meeting with Lust
🕑 Added 2022-12-30 12:00:05 +0000 UTCSeth frowned when he noticed the change in her eyes and asked: “How are you?”
“Don’t worry. I am fine now.” Said Katy, standing up and looking to her sides.
“Thank you.” She whispered, bending to her right and kissing Maya’s lips before doing the same with Caitlin on her left.
Seth’s frown deepened, and he said: “You’re not Katy.”
Katy looked back at him and smiled as she nodded: “I am not her indeed, but she’s fine. Just resting.”
Seth nodded, getting a feeling of kinship from her as he cleaned and covered himself before asking: “Then tell me. Who or what are you?”
“I’m exactly what you needed me to be, but I had to leave your body for a moment.”
“Leave my body?” asked Seth.
Katy nodded and asked: “Didn’t you find it strange you have no treasure mark?”
“I did, but what does that have with anything?”
Katy stood up and moved to graze Seth’s cheek gently.
“Let me quickly tell you some parts of history you don’t know. When humans first appeared, they were but empty husks. The spirit well opened, and souls coursed through it, looking to fill those husks with feelings, purpose, memories, will, desire, and everything that made humans what they are today.”
“But the link was broken before it could reach this world, the essence of the souls absorbed by the Goddess of Life and Death. What arrived in this world were broken souls, with no capacity to form connections, memories, or a will of their own.”
“They roamed aimlessly, being even lesser than animals as the cruel wills of this world prayed on them, looking to devour those pieces of souls inside the new race and grow stronger. The spirit well was ——————— “
Seth frowned and asked: “What are you doing?”
“—————— “Katy frowned and asked: “You don’t understand me?” seeing Seth shake his head, she sighed and said: “It looks like there are some things that no one is allowed to know… if you want those answers you’ll have to find them for yourself.”
“What’s important - “
“Wait a moment, what - “
< Don’t ask anymore.>
‘You too?’
<The World Sovereign has declared some subjects taboo, mostly related to the spirit well. I am still determining how this will knows of them, but it will do you no good to push more.>
Seth remained silent for a while before smiling at Katy. “Alright. Tell me what you can.”
“The treasure of hope has fused with your perception will, as you call it, giving it a consciousness and a physical manifestation. You two already met. She’s still young, but I needed to gain consciousness and physical manifestation as well, and Katy was the only being that would be able to serve as one.”
“I see… you were worried it would put more pressure on you and break the balance.”
Katy shook her head: “No, we’re not opposites like destruction and creation. We’re complementary, like time and space.”
“Complementary?” asked Seth, being the first time he had heard of this.
“The creation and destruction wills are complete wills and keep each other at bay by putting pressure on one another, reducing the pressure they can place on a host’s soul. Time and space are like two halves of a whole. If you have only half, they tend to push the host towards one direction, but as long as the two halves are brought together, their wills exist in harmony.”
“Time and space were originally ——— “Katy realized what happened by the frown on Seth’s face and said: “That is also not allowed... Think about life and death. You should understand.”
“Oh, I see. That’s why life and death ascended were never taken over by their wills.” Exclaimed Seth after thinking for a moment.
“That’s right. My little sister and I are the same. When we ————, if I am weaker, the ——— will be imperfect, so I needed to do this and keep the balance.”
Seth nodded and said: “I understand, kind of. What now? What will happen with you and Katy?”
“Nothing. I already did what I needed to do, so after our little chat, I’ll leave her body and return to yours.”
“What about your physical form? Isn’t it her?”
Katy touched the mark on her forehead: “What do you think this is? I’m already linked completely to her soul and can return to her body if necessary. I am ahead now since that seed of hope was very weak while Katy has a full-grown consciousness.”
“But Katy’s body, what happened to her? Why and how did you turn her like this?”
“My will wanted to link with her as one of your lovers, just as it happened with the other sisters, but as her body couldn’t sustain a link, my will changed it so she could. It was initially a mistake of a will acting on instinct, but it has become quite convenient now. You can call her a being of lust now. The first of her kind. Even I can’t tell you what will happen with her in the future.”
“Being of lust?”
Katy lifted her hand, which slowly turned into lust energy, floating in the form of mist before regrowing as her arm: “Yes, she’s lust materialized. Have her cultivate lust energy, and she’ll be able to become an ascended and control her body at will, as I just did.”
“What are you? There’s no way something like this is possible out of a simple human will.”
Katy smiled and tiptoed to kiss Seth’s lips before shaking her head: “Even if I wanted to tell you, I can’t. That stingy ———— won’t let me. Grow stronger, master, feed us more, and those answers will come to you once you reach the peak again. I can tell you that this path is the right one. Don’t hesitate to push forward.”
Seth nodded: “I already planned on doing that. Thank you for answering my questions, and sorry for always cursing at you.”
“Hehe, I didn’t mind. I was a weak will who only lived to serve my master’s will. I still do.”
“I should go. Is there anything you want to know? I’ll let my consciousness slumber after I return to your body so I won’t bother my sister.”
Seth pondered for a moment before asking: “Your energy, it’s at the demigod level, isn’t it? That’s why you can control beings over my level.”
Katy smiled and shook her head: “Think will, not energy. Also, is it really demigod level?”
Looking into Katy’s crafty eyes, Seth chuckled and nodded: “I see. Also, you are both limited, aren’t you?”
Katy nodded without saying a word.
“The whole world?”
She nodded again.
Seth’s face twitched, and he asked: “Are you joking?”
Katy shook her head. “When something doesn’t give, it must break.”
Seth sighed and nodded: “I was always afraid that was the case. Thanks for confirming it.”
“Everything for you.” Said Katy with a giggle. “When an ascended takes the trial, the will must respond to its call, so don’t be so sad.”
Seth pondered her words for a while before heaving a sigh of relief: “Thank me. That would have been a pain. Quick question... Can it be trusted?”
Katy didn’t reply immediately this time, staring silently into Seth’s eyes. After a long time, she shook her head: “I don’t know which one you mean, but the answer is still no either way. Trust yourself, trust my sister and me, and the bonds you have formed along the way. Even in slumber, I will never lead you astray.”
“Really? Then what happened with Ava?” asked Seth a chuckle.
“You don’t want her? I can remove the mark right now.” Asked Katy, lifting her hand with a cheeky smile.
“Fine, you win. That doesn’t mean that you didn’t cause me a lot of trouble. One more question. What happened with Tarquin?”
“I don’t know what my sister is planning. From what I noticed, she cut his soul in two, separating the marks his experiences left on him and leaving him as nothing more than an innocent soul. She separated that part filled with pain, hatred, and ambition and sealed it. That’s why the large amount of energy required, the lack of control, and his behavior.”
“Trust in her as well. She wants nothing more than for you to succeed, as do I.”
Seth nodded and then asked: “Could you tell me what further breakthrough will bring? I don’t want to be taken by surprise again.”
Katy surprisingly shook her head: “I don’t remember. When we ———— “seeing Seth’s face, she chuckled and said: “Doesn’t matter. You should understand enough from what I said.”
“Remember?” asked Seth wide-eyed, but Katy just winked at him and didn’t reply.
“I like you more and more by the second, but I’m curious... Doesn’t your sister remember?”
Katy frowned, “What did she say?”
“Don’t you know?”
“I only felt you entering her space. As I ———— I tried to only impose my will over yours only if necessary.”
Seth nodded and said: “I asked her all sorts of questions, but she said that she doesn’t remember, just like you did. Also, she said something about a dark and cold place and that I took her from there.”
Katy lowered her head and said: “I understand what happened. Hmmm. Human will kept changing and breaking, but their desires still thrived.”
“The dark wills? The horrors?” asked Seth.
Katy nodded with a sad look: “She has suffered a lot.”
Seth nodded with a sigh: “She must have. I’ll try to make sure she doesn’t anymore.”
“I’m sure you will.” Said Katy with a smile. “I’m going, master.”
Seth nodded and watched as Katy’s eyes slowly turned red before flaring pink again, making him widen his eyes and ask: “Did anything happen?”
“No, I remembered something. I know you wanted to bring a child into this world. Katy can bear one. It won’t be born a human. Even if I don’t know what the child will end up being, a soul will definitely be linked to your child.” Said Katy with a smile.
“But how? I know I didn’t absorb the lust energy between us.”
“Feed her some perception as well. The result might surprise you.” Said Katy before winking at Seth again, and her eyes slowly turned red. The pink luster covering her skin faded, and she started falling to the floor.
Seth caught her before she could and looked at the mark on her forehead that had become inactive.
“Thank you, Lust. You did give me some good tips.”
