Chapter 589 Jealous Mothers
No matter how much I wished to stay in their company, I couldn't let my hedonistic, pleasure-seeking side smother my hunger for power. The path I had chosen demanded I give nothing less than my all.
To that end, we said our goodbyes after the maids were done washing their armor. Five pairs of teary, worried eyes watched me as I initiated the Primordial Rank-up Mission.
It was time to roll.
[Primordial Rank-Up Mission Initiating...]
Just as it happened when I initiated this event for the first time, everything turned white, and the sound of my girls could no longer be heard.
My vision swiftly sharpened, and the blinding white gave way to the same giant floating island I came to associate with the primordial dimension.
I glanced down to my right and saw the same old man fishing in the clouds below with his legs freely dangling off of the land. "Laddy, you're working quick."
"Time waits for no one, Malakar."
My response earned a dismissive scoff from him. "Keep your nonsense lines for your mortal friends, laddy. I'm as old as Thalorind itself. Time, in fact, seems to be more than happy to wait for me…"
Right. I probably shouldn't preach about the importance of effective time management to a dude who spent many millions of years alive. Yes, time moved even in this dimension, into which the primordials of Thalorind have been exiled.
Originally, it was intended to be the training ground for us primordials, where time would freeze if one of us entered, and that's exactly how it works for me. As soon as I entered, time was no longer passing in Thalorind. However, the same was no longer true for the others; when I, the sole non-exiled primordial of our world, wasn't here, time passed in Thalorind just as it did here.
The reason my mommies told me time could pass during my Primordial Rank-Up Mission was that this dimension was nothing but a mere hub in the middle of where the primordials made their little settlement stood the giant monument. I had to travel there to begin the mission in earnest. Thus, I had a bit of time to catch up with the others.
"Quinnie!" Two feminine shrieks sounded, and I found myself enveloped by four plush mounds. I also felt a healthy dose of suffocation from their strong arms, needily hugging me closer to their bosoms.
Knowing how desperate these mothers of mine have been for my return, I embraced their needs with an open heart as I put one arm on each of their backs, hugging them closer to me. "Miri and Lumi…" I whispered their nicknames warmly.
"Quinnie!!" Mearie's tone was not very happy for some odd reason, which became clear once she parted her lips a second time. Jealousy oozed from her voice as she accused, "How dare you begin conversing with this old fool before even searching for me?!"
"Us, not just you! I'm Quinnie's mommy as well!" Luminara declared, visibly unhappy with her fellow mother's word usage.
Damn it… I had to chuckle wryly when I realized they were waiting for me, ready to pounce on me like a pair of hungry predators. What's worse, stupid little me walked right into their trap. Now, I had to make it up to them, or I would never hear the end of it.
"Mothers, I was missing you two greatly…"
"Hmph! Nice try, young man." Mearie scoffed, and then Luminara added slyly with a victorious smile, "You'll let us bathe you in exchange for our forgiveness!"
I mean, I did just take a bath, but that was more akin to getting wiped down by my ladies than an actual bath…
"To the pond?" I asked and received two heavy bobbing of their heads into my chest. They were being very needy right now.
"Khm!"
Malakar coughed, and I couldn't help but sense a hidden meaning in his actions.
However, my mothers were currently busy hugging me; they didn't react, eliciting a much stronger "Khm!" from the old man, which at long last snapped them back to reality.
"Oh, right!" Lumi realized rather cutely.
"Quinnie, do you have something to say in your defense?!" Miri asked. Both of them were glancing up at me with quite serious gazes as if I'd done something bad. Curiously, the rest of their bodies didn't seem to be synced together with their brains as their warm hugging continued.
I had to chuckle wryly, why was I being in trouble?
Knowing they could not witness the happening of Thalorind by themselves, instead only receiving information from the Goddess, I had to guess she found fault with one of my actions.
To find out what it could be, I searched my memories, glancing over all the bad stuff I had done since departing from this place to beat and enslave Selene.
"Was it when I permitted Vivienne's raping?" Experience more on My Virtual Library Empire
"Huh?!" Miri gasped, and Lumi asked, "You did what?!"
"She's a worse person than Selene."
"Oh." That immediately placated both of them. Based on their reaction, that couldn't have been it.
"I did gain a lot more slaves, but I can't be faulted for that, right? I am the Primordial Subjugator, after all."
"Right."
After receiving two decisive nods, I had to admit that I was lost. To combat this issue, I decided to change tactics. "Mothers, I tied the knot with Seraphiel and another precious woman called Jasmine. Also, you were right, Lumi. Sera came apart during my foot massage; she outright melted in my arms."@@novelbin@@
"Kya!!" My plan worked, I felt their heart begin beating quicker against my sides while their accusatory glances were completely erased, replaced by overwhelming joy and curiosity.
"She let you give her a foot massage?!" Based on my elven mommy's high-pitched squealing, Seraphiel's actions of giving me free rein over her feet were a very meaningful milestone in our relationship.
I didn't give it too much importance because I followed her foot massage up with a 7-hour-long raw-dogging session, which, to me at least, was a lot more meaningful. But based on Lumi's reaction, that was just my human bias speaking. As a person who wishes to embrace all cultures my current and future women will come from, I make sure I'll ask my elven mother for a proper explanation.
Before I could do that, however, Miri interjected.
What do you think?
