Chapter 5 - Awakening the Master

The first thing I felt was the warmth of the sun brushing against my face, slowly pulling me out of sleep. I rolled over, only to be greeted by a sight that made my heart skip a beat. 

Lily. 

She was lying beside me, completely naked, her body barely covered by the sheets. Her eyes were wide open, staring at me with a playful, knowing look, as if she'd been waiting for me to wake up. 

"Good morning, baby," she whispered, her voice soft and seductive. 

I could still feel the effects of our night together, my body buzzing from the pleasure, the satisfaction. I smirked, leaning toward her to give her a kiss. "Good mornin—" 

But before I could close the distance, she pressed her fingers lightly against my lips, stopping me mid-sentence. Her eyes gleamed with mischief as she rolled on top of me. Her boobs soft pressed against my chest, as she leaned down, her face hovering just inches from mine. The way she moved, slow and deliberate, was enough to make my heart race. 

"You're in the mood again, Lily?" I teased, my voice still a little groggy but filled with anticipation. 

She ignored my comment, tilting her head slightly, her expression turning more serious. "How do you feel?" she asked, her eyes searching mine. 

"I feel great," I replied, a little confused by the sudden shift in her tone. 

She narrowed her eyes.

"Do you feel anything… different inside of you?" 

I paused, furrowing my brow. Before I could answer, something strange washed over me. It started as a small tingle in my chest but quickly grew into something more—a surge of energy that pulsed through my body, lighting every nerve on fire. My entire body felt light, weightless even, and then I saw it 

—a faint blue aura surrounding me, like electricity dancing across my skin. My muscles tightened, and I felt an overwhelming sense of strength course through me. I glanced at my hands, then back at Lily. Something was definitely different. 

"What the hell is this?" I asked, panic creeping into my voice. 

Lily's eyes lit up with excitement, and a wide grin spread across her face.

"It worked!" she exclaimed, her voice filled with awe. "As expected from my Master." She leaned down, kissing me hard, her lips pressing against mine as if she couldn't contain her excitement. 

"Worked?" I asked, pulling back slightly, my head spinning. "What worked?" 

Lily sat up, her fingers tracing lightly over my chest as she stared at me with admiration. "Your awakening. Ahh- Fuck me and use me as much as you want from now." 

She said, hugging me again

I blinked, trying to process what she was saying. "Awakening? What are you talking about?" 

She smiled, sitting back on her heels. "Master, you're not just any ordinary man. You've been chosen. The ritual I was worried might not work but it surely worked!" 

I frowned, still not fully understanding. "Chosen? For what?" 

Lily let out a soft giggle, shaking her head. "You'll understand soon enough Master. But for now, get dressed. I'll explain everything." 

Still dazed by the strange events, I got up from the bed and headed to the bathroom, my mind racing with questions. What the hell was happening to me? My reflection in the mirror looked the same, but I could feel the difference. My muscles were more defined, tighter, like I had just gone through months of training overnight. I gripped the edge of the sink without thinking, and the porcelain shattered under my fingers. 

"Shit!" I muttered, letting go immediately. 

Lily's laughter echoed from the bedroom. "Careful, Master," she called out teasingly. "You don't want to destory the whole building."

Destroy what? Whole building?

I looked at my palms and the saw the faint blue aura swirling around me. 

Later that evening, we headed out. I dressed in black jacket, white t-shirt, and jeans. Lily had dressed differently this time. She wore tight denim skirt and a denim jacket, with black crop top inside. Half of her cleavage was bare visible and the long black boots she is wearing. Ahh- She looks so sexy. It was seducing as anything.

Something strange I noticed on her was a red coloured emblem of a butterfly on her chest which I didn't see yesterday night. 

We walked down a secluded path that led to a garden, the soft sound of crickets filling the air. The night felt… different. Something about the stillness around us made me uneasy. 

As we reached in the middle, Lily stopped and turned to me, her expression serious. "Are you ready for the truth?" she asked. 

"I'm still not sure what the hell is going on," I admitted, running a hand through my hair. "But I guess I don't have much of a choice, do I?" 

Lily smiled. "You're stronger than you think, Master. You were chosen for a reason. This world isn't like your old one. Here, pleasure is more than just a way to pass time. Its power. It's energy. And for you, it's the source of your strength and our freedom." 

I raised an eyebrow. "Pleasure… gives me power? You mean, like last night?" 

She nodded. "Exactly. And it's only the beginning."

"Okk so what I have to do exactly? I must be summoned for a reason right?" I said, playing along with her. I still feel like some prank is on its way.

"You are summoned to this world to fight against an evil that threatens to consume it. They come from outside this Earth, and their goal is simple—to control this world by using its most powerful force: pleasure." 

I took a step back, trying to wrap my head around what she was saying. "So… I'm supposed to fight some kind of alien force?"

"Yes."

"Ohh, but why me?" 

"Because, Master, you are Zero. The one chosen by the ritual. Only someone strong, someone capable, could handle the power that comes with it. You were chosen because you're not like anyone else." She smiled gently, stepping closer. "And now, you're the one who will protect this world." 

I stared at her, still struggling to believe what I was hearing. "This is insane…" 

"I know it's a lot to take in, Master. But you'll understand in time. And don't worry. I'll be here, by your side, guiding you through it all." She placed her hand on my chest, her fingers lightly tracing my skin. "But you have to fight. For us. For this world." 

I looked into her eyes, searching for some hint that this was all a joke, some kind of elaborate prank. But she was serious. Deadly serious. 

"And what if I don't believe any of this?" I asked. 

Lily's smile turned sly. "Then I'll just have to prove it to you." She took a step back, her eyes narrowing. "Tonight." 

We continued walking through the garden until we reached a quiet clearing. I glanced around, still unsure of what to expect. The night was still, too still and then suddenly— The crickets that had been chirping earlier had suddenly gone silent, and the air felt heavy with anticipation. 

Lily's posture changed instantly. Her body tensed, her eyes scanning the darkness around us. "It's here," she whispered. 

"What's here?" I asked, 

Before she could answer, something moved in the shadows, a rustling sound coming from behind one of the trees. I turned, my heart pounding, and then I saw it—a figure emerging from the darkness. Its body was twisted and grotesque, hunched over with long, bony limbs that moved in unnatural jerks. Its skin was covered in dark, slimy scales, and its eyes glowed a faint, eerie green. 

I took a step back, my hand instinctively reaching for something, anything to defend myself. 

"What the hell is that?" I whispered, unable to tear my eyes away from the creature.
