I sat in Cornelia's nurse's office and watched as Cornelia did a daily check up on me. She wrote down notes and walked to her desk then sat down, putting on her glasses.
"Cornelia, am I done here?" I asked.
"Not quite." Cornelia answered. "I just have to run a few more tests so I can see how to stabilize Tyr's Energy for you so you can reliably use his powers. Just sit tight for a bit."
I nodded and decided to look at Cornelia's stats so I can know more about her.
{Cornelia's Stats}
[Rank: A]
[Strength: A]
[Defense: A]
[Stamina: S+]
[Intelligence: SS+]
[Speed: B]
[Perks: None]
[Valkyrie Ability: Gullveig/Heidr]
"So you have the power of two deities?" I asked.
Cornelia looked at me then smiled. "No. I have the power of one Goddess, but she has two different names. Her past name, Gullveig, and her future name, Heidr."
"So what's your story with Yuri? How did you two meet?" I asked.
Cornelia leaned against her desk then took off her glasses. She closed her eyes and sighed softly. "I used to be a villain. You see I am a witch. A witch who takes after Gullveig a lot, some speculate that I might actually be her reincarnation. I had only three things in mind: money, sex, and power. I would stop at nothing for my goals...I would use men to steal their energy to fuel my desire for sex, I would use my power to turn anything into Gold for money whether it be people, animals, or just anything I could get my hands on, and I would sacrifice human beings to obtain more power."
"Yuri must've defeated you then for you to join." I said.
"Yeah. She is the embodiment of Courage and Strength due to her connection to Modi and Magni. She used her power to easily defeat me, but that didn't stop my lust.." Cornelia said and stood up then walked over to me.
I watched her and noticed her stand over me then she made me stand up. "Your lust..?"
"Come on, you know what I'm talking about..." She said with a soft chuckle. She wrapped her arms around my neck and stared into my eyes.
"I—" I started and lost my train of thought. She was applying so much pressure that I could feel her sexual energy.
"What's wrong..? Cat got your tongue..?~" Cornelia cooed.
She used one of her hands to make me hold her waist. I couldn't lie and say I wasn't heavily attracted to Cornelia, but this was the first time I've had a woman make me speechless. I couldn't speak...I just took in this moment.
"Ever since your battle against Yuri, I've been even more interested in you...You were the first person to make Yuri admit defeat. Your connection to Freyja...I can sense you're very experienced as well. I'm sure Fhae has told you.." Cornelia said softly.
I nodded and kept eye contact. "About how you all.."
"Yeah..." Cornelia said and placed her forehead against mine. "I've purposely been repressing my desires for that one good man who comes along...and I think I've found him.."
"How do you know that I'm the one..?" I asked.
Cornelia softly chuckled and leaned in even closer. "I have a keen sense for good men. I can also tell you've been ignoring your urges as well...I don't want you to ignore those feelings anymore. Even if you do, you can't hide that from me...I am wiser than most Valkyries here other than Fhae."
"Like I told Fhae, I'm not sure if I want to just be used by you all for your own personal gains. I have my own goals as well..." I said.
"I'm not going to use you for my own gains, besides...I deserve a reward for even giving you Tyr's power. Without me, you would more than likely be dead already.." Cornelia responded.
"I guess that's true..." I said. "What do you want from me..?"
"I want you..." Cornelia whispered and inched closer to kiss me.
I watched her then noticed a message from Fhae. Cornelia noticed my notification as well then sighed softly and let me go.
"Of course.." Cornelia said, slightly annoyed.
{Fhae: Hey! I was wondering if you wanted to join me so we could go to District 6 together. I've got a few errands to run and I didn't want to go alone.}
Cornelia placed her hand on her hip and looked at me. "You can go. I still need to finish these tests. I'll call you when I finish."
I could tell she was annoyed by the way she spoke. I decided to take initiative then grabbed her arm. She looked back at me. I pulled her toward me and held her waist. She blushed and held my shoulders.
"You seemed rather annoyed at the fact that our moment was ruined, but I promise to you that I'll be back to 'help' you." I said.
{Bond with Cornelia Increased!}
Cornelia smiled and held my cheeks. "You better..."
I smiled at her and nodded. She kissed my cheek then let me go. I let her go as well and headed out the office to go meet up with Fhae.
——————
I rendezvoused with Fhae at District 6 and walked toward her. "Fhae."
Fhae looked at me and smiled. "Hey, I'm glad you made it~"
"I was more than happy to come help you with your errands. I mean you did a lot for me, so it's the least I could do. Albeit I am pretty late, but that's because Atalia wanted to play a quick game of Rock Paper Scissors." I chuckled.
Fhae giggled softly and smiled at me. "It's so nice to hear you have such a great relationship with your daughter. She's always a joy to be around, I wouldn't be surprised if she had the spirit of Baldr within her..~ Her smile really lights up the place even making someone like Grace feel genuine happiness..~"
"She is. I can't imagine a reality where I rejected her...She really is a new joy in my life now. I want to do all I can to preserve her smile.." I said and smiled.
Fhae nodded and held my hand. "Ready to go?~"
I nodded and soon we headed off together, holding hands. There was always something with Fhae that just made me so comfortable around her. She was very attractive to me as well, also very cute because of her expressive ears. Her ears were similar to Komine's fox ears, they wiggled when she was happy, they drooped when she was sad, and they would straighten when she was surprised or listening closely to something.
Fhae also had an energy that just could make anyone smile, even Yuri, who was said to rarely be seen smiling at all. All of this made me even more curious about Fhae.
"So, how did you and Yuri meet?" I asked.
Fhae smiled and hummed softly. "It's actually a long story. You see, I'm from Alfheim. Born and raised, you know the typical and soon I was on a mission to traverse outside the domain. That's when I came to Isoria to start anew with Freyr's power. I noticed she was in a bit of danger when she was battling against an Astra Valkyrie member, Valdana. It was her, Vaja, and Grace. Valdana had betrayed them to join Organization X to carry out their plans. I used my Elven Power and Freyr's power to help defeat Valdana and drive her off."
"Ahh. You know your story is the most tame so far. Komine was a Jotunn and Cornelia said she was a straight up villain." I said.
"Most Valkyries end up starting off as Yuri's enemy. She doesn't possess the strongest powers, but she really knew how to make the most of them. I believe I'm the only one who didn't fight Yuri." Fhae said.
"Really? You must be close to her then huh." I said.
"Yeah, I'm one of her closest friends. It wasn't easy getting close but I managed~" Fhae giggled.
I smiled at Fhae and chuckled softly. "I can definitely see how you managed...You're really nice and respectable. Not to mention rather beautiful.."

Fhae blushed and gave a bashful smile. She brushed her hair behind her ear and looked away a bit. "You're very handsome yourself..~ I've always looked for a man that could match me...Not many are out here unless we're in one of the Nine Worlds..~"
I smiled and walked in front of Fhae. "I know you're out to run errands, but how about we have some fun while we are here. There's a carnival nearby~"
Fhae looked at me then nodded. "Okay~"
Fhae and I went for the carnival and together we began to play a few games together and went on a few rides that were available. It was obvious that Fhae was having the time of her life and her joyful smile caused me to become more happy. I was able to win a few prizes for Fhae like stuffed animals, some accessories, and even got her a rare charm.
We spent a couple hours together and soon left so Fhae could get her errands out of the way. As soon as everything was over, we began to make our way back to HQ together, holding hands.
"I had a lot of fun..~ Probably the most fun I've had in a while...It really brought me back to when I was younger..~" Fhae said and gently squeezed my hand.
"I agree, I haven't had this much fun in a while... I've been searching for something different for a while in my dimension..~ Even though I did always go to carnivals on Earth a lot when I did go on dates, this felt different.." I said with a soft smile.
Fhae interlocked our fingers together and her cheeks became rosy. "I'm really glad I saved you from uncertain doom..~ You're really a one of a kind.."
"C'mon...I'm sure if anyone else were in my position—"
"That's not the point.." Fhae said and walked in front of me and smiled at me. "The point is that you are here with us now...Sure if anyone else were in this position, things would've probably been the same however..."
I looked at Fhae then my face became a bit red when Fhae softly pecked my lips. I stared at Fhae and noticed her bashful look.
"However...I'm glad it was you.." Fhae smiled at me. "That's all that matters.."
I smiled at Fhae and averted my eyes a bit. "You women are very different from the ones I used to interact with...I like that. You all know what you want, and I believe I've come to my conclusion.."
Fhae looked at me and tilted her head a bit. "A conclusion..?"
I nodded and looked at her face. "I'll be the one you all can freely use, but I want to set some rules."
Fhae blushed even more and stared at me. "What rules?"
"Since Atalia's room is next to mine, we can most definitely not become extremely intimate in my room." I said.
"Okay." Fhae nodded.
"Kissing is fine, but anything beyond that while Atalia is awake is not alright." I said.
"Mmkay." Fhae nodded.
"And finally, it is a first come first serve ordeal. Whoever gets the grab first, gets me first." I smiled.
"Well since I have you—"
"Cornelia already got me first, and I can't exactly walk away from her since she is planning to stabilize Tyr's power within me...but next time I'll definitely make sure you're next.." I said.
Fhae's ears drooped a bit, but not enough to express sadness or disappointment. She just smiled and nodded. "I understand..~ It's kinda cute that you're thinking about your daughter first. Makes me wonder...how great you'd be with a child of your own...Maybe I should've worded that better.."
"No I understand what you mean." I chuckled and smiled. "But yeah...Atalia is nearly always first on my mind now. I can't allow myself to fall anymore, for her and for you all.."
Fhae nodded and her ears perked up once more. She smiled happily and slowly let go of my hand. "We'll make sure you never fall..~ No matter what.."
I nodded and smiled as I watched her walk toward the building with her loot in hand.

I walked into Cornelia's office then she looked back at me then smiled. She took off her glasses and walked over to me then grabbed my hand then sat me down on the hospital bed.
"I'm glad you're back..~ I hope you had fun." Cornelia said and walked to her medical machine and grabbed a syringe.
"I did. Hopefully this isn't gonna make me pass out again.." I said as I watched her.
"Don't worry, I won't put you to sleep this time..~" Cornelia smiled and walked over to me. "Just lie down and relax..~"
I nodded and laid down on the bed then felt Cornelia crawl on the bed and sit on top of me. I looked at her and before I could say a word she placed a finger on my lips.
"Not a word.." She whispered and made me place my hand on her thigh. She leaned down and smiled at me. "This serum has a bit of my magic in it...it's a special medicine that will only activate with skin to skin interaction.."
She slowly injected me with the serum and I grunted softly as I immediately felt it enter my blood stream. After injecting me, she placed the syringe on the nightstand. She moved her hips forward and placed her forehead against mine.
"I wish we could do it right now..." Cornelia said softly and held my cheeks.
"We can't...Atalia is still awake.." I said.
"I know and it's so hard to control myself...I made this serum like this on purpose...When Fhae gave the news that you'll be ours to use in any way imaginable, I grew so excited. I could almost feel the ecstasy before it even started...but your rules make you so much more desirable.." Cornelia whispered.
I watched her then felt her kiss my lips. I gave a soft grunt as I felt her serum activate. My veins began to glow faintly and the power inside began to stabilize. Cornelia pulled away and smiled at me. I stared at her then pulled her back down gently and kissed her lips once more. She happily kissed back and slowly moved her hips. She desperately wanted me...She was once again enabled.
Cornelia pulled away once again and bit her bottom lip. "It's so hard to control myself now...Your teasing only makes me want you more. You're making me so desperate..."
I chuckled softly and sat up slowly. I felt her hold onto me. "Unfortunately we can't right now...I care a lot for Atalia's innocence. It's best we become more intimate when she's asleep so she can't hear you."
"Me? I'm not that loud.." Cornelia said with a blush.
"I doubt it...If you're going this crazy already, I can only imagine how loud you get when the motion actually starts..." I said and chuckled softly.
Cornelia stared into my eyes and averted her eyes. "I can't help it...if it feels good, it feels good. I'll try to be quiet.."
"I'm sure you will." I chuckled. "In the meantime, I appreciate this. I can already feel the power stabilizing.."
"Maybe a test run would suffice~ I've just hatched an idea. How about you fight me? If I win, we're doing it no questions asked. If you win, we're doing it no questions asked." Cornelia said.
"Yeah that's very fair isn't it.." I said with a soft laugh.
"I think it's fair..~ If you end up beating me, that let's me know it worked and it's an absolute win for me~" Cornelia giggled softly.
"Wow I really played right into your hands..~ Alright whatever. Deal." I said.

{Bond Rank with Cornelia UP: C -> B}
Cornelia giggled and got off me. "I'll meet you at the Valkyrie Arena~"
I watched her walk out of her office and stood up. I looked at my arms and smiled. I was curious on what I could do now that I had more control over my abilities. I headed out to find the Valkyrie Arena.
