A Serpent's Tale
Chapter 188: Horny Seer
CHAPTER 188: HORNY SEER
"Uhh... In a bit." I was taken aback by her eagerness to get my father’s uh, ’blessing’ if you will.
"NNnnn, but I want it now!" She demanded like a child.
"Well, I don’t know how to do this, I’ve never had to do such a thing before. I don’t even know where to start." I retorted
"I can help!" She screamed incessantly.
Lia grabbed her sister by the shoulder and pulled her back. "Forgive me sister, but you seem way too eager to get the protection of this Asmodeus guy."
"Sorry, I’m just a big fan as I said." Varia apologised as she rubbed the back of her head with an awkward smile.
"But why?" I asked, wondering why someone would want the protection of my father when they aren’t me.
"Because he’s the incarnation of Lust?" Varia stated as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"That doesn’t explain anything." Lia retorted.
"Wait..." I drew their attention when I spoke up. "You’re not just some horny slut, are you?" I questioned with scrutiny.
"How dare you accuse my big sister of being a slut!" Lia shouted in a fit of rage, but before she could say any more, Varia placed an arm on her shoulder.
Lia looked back at her sister, who was now blushing profusely with an extremely lewd smile on her face as she looked away, ashamed of her actions.
"Oh my lord... My sister is a whore... That’s not even the most traumatising thing that I’ve seen or heard today." Lia said with a blank expression.
"Sorry Lia, but... I am a glorified slut. It’s... Just who I am I guess."
Lia just stared at her sister with a dead gaze, seemingly unfazed by her sister’s statement. Her stare unsettled Varia so she ignored her and turned to face me whilst sweating slightly from the stare she was receiving.
"So uhh... I can actually make the connection to him myself, with some of your blood as acting as a bridge, but whether or not he’ll accept me or not is the main problem, but, with your guarantee, I have nothing to worry about."
"Oh... Okay..." I then remembered the demonic contract for some reason. I don’t know why, but I felt that it could be of use, so I took it out of my [Spatial Storage] and presented it to her. "Here, I don’t know if this’ll be useful or not, but I thought about this for some reason, and decided to show you."
She took it out of my hands and examined it with scrutiny before her eyes snapped wide and looked at me.
"How did you get one of these? Only demons of hell are capable of getting their hands on these." She questioned with an incredulous expression as she glanced at me, wondering how I got my hands on something so powerful yet so rare.
"I summoned a demon and she gave it to me when I asked." I explained, a rather simple explanation, but to them, it seemed like something out of a fairytale when I said that. "What? What’d I say wrong?"
"H-How can you summon demons? Wait no, you’re also part demon, of course you can summon others." Varia began to whisper away to herself as she rambled on about how I obtained the contract and the absurdity of it apparently.
"Did you forget who I am? I’m the daughter to one of the princes of hell." I told Varia, which made her snap her head back in shock, almost as if the fact that I said that had only now just kicked in and not when I told her earlier.
I looked over at her sister, who just shrugged at me.
"Varia."
"Hmm? Yes?" She snapped her head at me when I called her name.
"Is this going to be of any help or not?" I asked, referring to the contract parchment.
"Huh? Oh right, uhh... Not for me, but it will be useful in helping Lia get away from the gods." She explained.
"Wait really?" Lia whipped her head around upon hearing this and stared at her sister with the same sparkly eyes that she had when staring intensely at me just a moment ago.
"Yeah, in fact, the more demonic things that we plague you with, the better, because it’ll mean that more of the divine aura that the gods have given you, will fade. Or you could just outright sell your soul to one, that’ll do the trick." Varia further explained the intricacies of her predicament to her sister.
"But... Traytora is the only demon here." Lia stated something that was rather obvious but everyone, including myself, didn’t take into account.
"I could just summon one. It’d be really easy for me." I suggested to them.
"No, I’d rather not sign one with a true, full-on demon." Lia spoke hesitantly. "I think... I think I’d rather make one with Traytora."
"Wait what? Me?" Now I was the one whipping my head round towards Lia in surprise at her bold declaration. "Why though?" I asked as I wasn’t sure why she would even suggest such a thing.
Seeing our awkward interaction, Varia interrupted us and explained, "Well, you don’t HAVE to make a contract, it’ll just help with removing any traces of divinity on you faster, or even instantly."
"And how does Asmodeus becoming your Oracle benefactor help?" Lia scrutinised her sister with her questionable desires.
And Varia retorted, "Well, it’ll allow me to see past the barrier that prevents me from peering into the divine, allowing me to see what they’re planning next, which allows us to make moves to avoid it. And I want to be blessed with the same power as her." She finished off her explanation pointing at me.
"You really are a whore." Lia stated with a blank stare towards her sister.
"H-Hey! I’m not just a whore okay! I just have a really high libido!" Varia clamoured back at her sister.
"You do know that this will just make that worse, right?" I pointed out to her.
"Well, yeah. But I figured that with the power I gain from it, I can find the best way to counteract it with my powers." She fought back, though she sounded a little unsure about her own statement.
*Sigh* "Whatever, let’s just get this over with. You only need some of my blood, right?" I sighed in exasperation and tiredness, extending my palm out so that we could get this over and done with.
"Yup! If you wouldn’t mind just making a cut on your hand and letting it drip in front of me, the more the better." She expounded impatiently.
I sighed again and made a shallow cut diagonally across my palm and squeezed my hand into a fist to squeeze my blood out before my regeneration healed the cut.
My blood dripped from my hand down onto the stone floor until it stopped, at which point I pulled away and Varia excitedly shifted over to the tiny puddle of my blood and began chanting. My blood then began floating up into the air until it all congealed into a small orb that floated front of her glowing with a slight Aura of the power of Lust.
