We all fell silent after hearing what Vira said...
I don't even know what I should do right now, I never expected to hear those words from Vira...
Am I asleep and is all of this just a dream? Did I faint when I healed Vira and am I dreaming this?
Is this all Bahamut's doing? Changing Vira's nature? Even though that Omnipotent is so lazy and doesn't want to help the sky realm when its being invaded by otherworldly beings?
"Why are you silent dear?" suddenly I heard Vira's voice interrupting my thoughts...
Dear? Who is Dear? Is she calling Katalina? She must be calling Katalina, right???
But strangely she is looking at me now and not at Katalina... I then turned to Katalina and Rosetta and saw that they both had the same expression like me on their faces.
I'm sure the others are also wearing the same expression without me seeing them...
I immediately stood up and turned towards the still shocked Lyria, "Lyria, I want you to hit me hard and wake me up from this dream." I grabbed Lyria's shoulders.
"Eh? Eh?? Eh???" Lyria looked confused after hearing what I said.
"Djeeta, please hit me hard too and wake me up from this dream," Vyrn said to Djeeta with a blank expression.
"This is not a dream Vyrn... and Rei, please stop thinking this is a dream too," Djeeta replied to Vyrn and then said to me.
Not a dream?? That's a really funny joke... Vira saying that to a man? And not Katalina? It's definitely a dream.
"Alright... how about... first we go back inside Grandcypher and I will park Grandcypher back on Albion," Rackam hesitantly suggested to us.
"I agree... maybe I'm just too tired so I'm hearing all of this," I said to Rackam and started walking towards my room.
"Rei, are you going to leave me here? You're the one who made me like this but you're running away from your responsibility *sobs*," Vira suddenly said to me while pretending to cry.
I stopped walking and tried to look back at Vira... and then I saw Vira covering her face with her hands pretending to be crying.
...what the fuck happened.
Then I could only return to Vira, who was still sitting on the floor pretending to cry...
As I approached her, I could see that Vira was peeking at me through her fingers that covering her face, which made me sure that she had been pretending to cry all along.
Thinking more seriously, Vira became like this after I healed her with pure energy from Lucifer's wings, right? Hmm... wait a minute!
I then crouched to be at the same height as Vira and held both her shoulders, "Vira, there is something I need to check, so forgive me."
"Eh?" Vira looked confused after hearing my words.
I then lifted Vira with a princess carry and said to the others, "I need to check something, so I'll be taking Vira for a bit."
After saying that, I immediately carried Vira and flew away from the Grandcypher, trying to find a secluded and suitable place on Albion Island.
At first, Vira looked surprised when she realized that I was princess carrying her, but after realizing that she was so close to me, she immediately tried to press her chest against my body while hugging me without hesitation.
...I need to quickly find a secluded place and check on Vira.
A few moments later, I could see a spacious area filled only with grass and a single large tree.
That's a suitable place! I immediately changed my direction towards that place at the edge of the island.
Not long I landed at that place and placed Vira under the tree that protected us both from the hot sun rays as it was still daytime.
I was a bit hesitant to do this because I had to touch her in a sensitive area like before, but the difference now was that Vira was conscious and not unconscious like before.
"I need to check on you, Vira, so I have to touch your chest... if you don't mind," I hesitantly said to Vira.
"What did you say, Rei? Of course, you can touch me as much as you want, I don't mind at all," Vira replied quickly without hesitation.
I then moved my right hand and touched her chest. "Uhhh, cold," I heard Vira say when my hand touched her chest.
I immediately focused on examining the energy inside her body, hoping that my suspicions were wrong...
Unfortunately, my suspicions were correct. I could feel that Vira's body was filled with the pure energy from my white wings when I healed her before.
There was also a small residue of Luminiera energy still inside her body, but that energy was minimal compared to the pure energy filling her body.
Lucifer's pure energy isn't just any energy. Lucifer is the supreme primarch and one of the first primal beasts created by the Astrals. Because he was the first primal beast they created, the Astrals accidentally made Lucifer too overpowered.
His power even surpassed his creators, the Astrals, but now a part of his energy is inside Vira...
But the question was, how could that energy change Vira's nature to this extent?
I continued to think for a moment searching for reasons but found none at all. The only thing I could think of was that because Vira had energy from my wings so her attraction had changed towards me, the source of the energy she had.
Hmm? Suddenly, I felt my hand gripping something soft and plump (?)
I then opened my eyes and saw that my right hand was gripping Vira's left breast...
I could see that Vira had moved my hand from touching her chest before to now grabbing her breast directly.
Vira's face is now very red as she stared at my hand which was directed at her breasts by her, but she had no intention of letting go of my hand.
"Vira... what are you doing...?"
But I didn't hear any response from Vira for a while.
Suddenly Vira pushed me so strong that I fell backwards. "Vira!?"
My four wings immediately disappeared, leaving only two white wings all of a sudden that make me confused.
But I didn't have time to check on my wings because Vira suddenly sat on top of me while staring at me.
"Vira....?" I tried to call out to her but she didn't respond at all.
"Hehehehe...." Suddenly I heard a creepy laughter coming from Vira...
As she laughed like that, I could see her eyes starting to change color to gold and glowing.
"Vira, what's wrong with you!? Vira, wake up!" I tried to push Vira, who was sitting on me, but strangely, she was incredibly strong and I couldn't budge her.
Vira continued to stare at me with a gaze full of lust, then licked her lips and approached my face while undoing her clothing.
Now I can see Vira's breasts without being covered by her clothes as she removed her clothes.
She then took hold of my hand and directed it to her breast as she continued to move closer to me until she finally deep kissed me.
I didn't realized it at first but my two white wings is actually glowing when she's kissing me and making my hand groping her breast.
<~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~>
"Hey Rackam, how is the condition of the Grandcypher's engines?" I asked Rackam, who was inspecting the Grandcypher's engines.
It had been several hours since Rei said he wanted to check on Vira and flew off somewhere, so we could only wait for the two of them to return.
After Rei carried Vira and flew off, we all agreed to return to Albion Island and park the Grandcypher in its previous spot.
"I haven't found any issues with the Grandcypher's engines yet, but I still need to check everything thoroughly, and it might take a few days," Rackam replied.
So, it seemed like we were stuck on this island until Rackam finished checking the Grandcypher. "In that case, I'll go back to the others. If you need any help, don't hesitate to ask," I said.
"Alright, Captain," Rackam replied.
I then left the Grandcypher's engine room and walked through this corridor. I didn't have a specific destination in mind, so I just walked randomly.
"Ugh, why is Rei taking so long!" I mumbled as I walked while looking around me.
I continued walking for a while inside the Grandcypher, which was very spacious. I don't know what kind of magic or Primal Beast power Grandcypher has, but it's really vast inside....
Even though from the outside it looks like an ordinary ship, but when you enter you can see many spacious rooms and lots of rooms inside it.
However, with only ten of us on board, many rooms remained unused...
Suddenly I heard someone humming which made me stop. I realized I was in front of Lyria's room, and the sound was coming from inside.
Curious about what Lyria was doing, I knocked on her door. "Lyria? Are you in there?"
"Hmm? Djeeta, is that you? Yes, come in," I heard Lyria's voice from inside her room.
With her permission I entered her room. Oh wow this room is in such a mess. I saw lots of scattered yarn, fabrics, and various items thrown into the trash.
"Lyria, what are you doing?" I cautiously walked to avoid stepping on the scattered items to approach Lyria, who was on her bed looks like doing something.
"Hehe, I'm making a scarf," Lyria showed me the blue scarf she was working on.
The scarf isn't finished yet, but I can see Lyria is making a blue scarf with lots of decorations and wing symbols, similar to Rei's wings.
"Are you making it for Rei?" I sat on Lyria's bed while observing the scarf she held.
"Yes, I want to give it to him as a thank you for cooking for me every day and helping me since we first met," Lyria nodded happily while answering me.
I felt glad seeing Lyria so happy. "You didn't make one for me?" I asked Lyria with a hint of sadness.
Hearing my question Lyria panicked and quickly said, "Of course I'm gonna make one for you too Djeeta! I'm just making one for Rei first, then Katalina, and finally you." She explained hurriedly.
Seeing Lyria's panicked expression made me laugh because she looked cute with that expression. "Hahaha, I was just kidding, Lyria."
"Mouuu, Djeeta!" Lyria pouted when she realized I'm just teasing her.
We both then talk together like this for a while and I continued to watch Lyria making the scarf.
"So... how far has your relationship with Rei progressed?" I casually asked Lyria. I said this just to start a conversation and didn't expect a serious response from her.
Because each time she was asked about her relationship with Rei, Lyria always run away or tried to change the subject because she was really embarrassed.
....But strangely I didn't hear any response from Lyria at all after a while.
"Lyria?" I turned to look at her and saw that she was blushing really hard even more than usual.
Huh... what was happening between the two of them?
