Endless Path : Infinite Cosmos

Staring down at the naked body of Black Rabbit, her supple and soft figure reflecting lasciviously in his glowing, aquamarine eyes, Vahn felt genuinely blessed. She wasn't the most beautiful woman he had ever been with, but, at least in the present moment, there wasn't a single being in existence, be they god or mortal, who could rival the charming rabbit writhing seductively beneath him.

"Vahn..."

Though she couldn't read his mind, Black Rabbit had always been remarkably perceptive. Her duties as a Judge Master required her to be. Thus, even without him saying anything, she was hyper-aware of the affectionate yet possessive aura emanating from Vahn's body as he gingerly traced his index and middle fingers along her collarbone.

Meeting Black Rabbit's impassioned gaze, Vahn could have sworn there were tiny pink hearts in the center of her pupils as she grasped his hand, her voice a heated whimper as she said, "I trust you..."

With the pupils of his eyes contracting, an ardent heat spread through Vahn's body as he watched Black Rabbit pull his fingers to lips, an overtly sensual look in her eyes as she began to gently nibble the tip of his middle finger.

"You really know what to say to get a man riled up..."

Shaking her head, Black Rabbit dealt another critical blow to Vahn's sensibilities by staring directly into his eyes and stating, "Only you..."

(*Wow...she's good...*)

("No kidding...")

Though they were supposed to be taking a break, Vahn's muscles strained as he pried apart Black Rabbit's legs. She was the type of woman that instinctually locked her legs around her partner, and, were it not for the fact he possessed monstrous strength, Vahn might not have been able to pry her off of him.

Understanding Vahn's intentions, Black Rabbit turned her eyes up at him as she instinctually held her hands above her breasts in a manner reminiscent of someone pretending to be a bunny. She wasn't entirely sure why she did this; it just felt right. It also got a rise out of Vahn, so, even if it was a little embarrassing, Black Rabbit suppressed her anxiety and said, "Black Rabbit want carrot..."

"Kuh..."

(*Right in the kokoro...*)

Ignoring Sis's remark, Vahn pushed up Black Rabbit's legs until they were nearly parallel with her upper body. Then, after deftly adjusting his angle, he forced his way through her remarkably moist folds, unwavering even as her interior walls attempted to clamp around and confine him.

"Nnnnnnnnnn~!"

Though she managed to keep her mouth closed, Black Rabbit was unable to prevent a nasally moan from emanating from her throat as Vahn's glans pressed against the entrance of her womb. She felt as though a surge of electricity had run through her body, her tuft of a tail twitching madly as Vahn lifted her bottom from the bed with his movement.

Feeling Black Rabbit's inner walls coil around him like countless hands attempting to, quite literally, milk him dry, an amused chuckle emanated from Vahn's throat. This caused Black Rabbit to open her tightly shut eyes, confusion visible in her ruby-red depths until Vahn kissed her forehead and teased, "Your body is telling me it really wants to make babies..."

Despite blushing fiercely, Black Rabbit surprised Vahn by staring into his eyes and saying, "It's not just my body..." in a paradoxically meek yet assertive tone of voice.

Swallowing in response to the impassioned rabbit's words, Vahn was briefly tempted to just throw Shiroyasha's caution to the wind. Unfortunately, he knew that Black Rabbit would be the one to feel guilty if he impregnated her when she wasn't thinking clearly. She had already decided to wait until her Community had recuperated before having little bunnies of her own, so, despite her words and actions, Vahn knew Black Rabbit wasn't ready to have children...

Hearing Black Rabbit's heated remark, clarity instantaneously returned to Shiroyasha's eyes as she muttered, "Vahn..." in a cautious tone.

Resisting the urge to roll his eyes, Vahn raised Shiroyasha's chin with his fingers, his hand gently cradling her neck as he planted a relatively tame kiss on her lips and said, "Relax...I'm not going to do anything..."

Not expecting Vahn to suddenly steal a kiss, the first she had ever received from a member of the opposite sex, Shiroyasha's expression momentarily blanked. She didn't even possess a heart in her present form, yet, in spite of this, she felt even more excited than usual as she cheekily replied, "So you say...for some reason, I find it difficult to trust the words of a man who has a little girl tied up and bound in his lap..."

Deadpanning in response to Shiroyasha's words, Vahn flatly retorted, "I could always untie you..."

After playfully poking out her tongue, Shiroyasha wiggled her butt in an attempt to nestle a bit closer to Vahn as she said, "No thanks. I've had some pretty traumatic experiences with sadists in the past so this is surprisingly nice. If I did ask you to remove them, it would be so that you could tie me up in an even lewder fashion..."

"Right..."

Though he was tempted to ask who could possibly bully the former Rank 10, Vahn already had a few people in mind. Shiroyasha's Fragment of Origin had roused his intrigue so he ended up asking the Law of Identity for the identities of the people who had defeated her. To his surprise, two of her three defeats had occurred at the hands of the same person, a remarkably beautiful woman known as Queen Halloween. As for her second defeat, culminating in the existence of morning, noon, and evening, it had only been made possible because Queen Halloween had seized several of her Sun Authorities.

"Are you thinking about another woman right now? I suddenly feel very annoyed..."

Raising his brows, Vahn attempted to deflect by pointing towards the television and remarking, "I would have thought that was rather obvious..."

Snorting through her nose, Shiroyasha decided not to press the matter. Instead, she returned her attention to the television before changing the channel with a thought and asking, "What are your thoughts on summoning that Seraphina woman? You seemed quite fond of her."

Tightening his hold on Shiroyasha's small body, Vahn shook his head and said, "No. Though I'm a little interested in seeing how things played out following my sudden departure, I no longer have any involvement with that world. Unless she somehow ended up alone, I wouldn't want to interfere in her life more than I have..."

Though his words expressed his true feelings, Vahn couldn't help staring at the television with a glimmer of longing in his eyes. It depicted Seraphina wearing frilly pink pajamas as she cuddled with a remarkably adorable girl attired in an outfit resembling a bunny girl. He didn't know what their relationship was, but it almost seemed like Seraphina was taking care of the young bunny as the latter nestled close to her like a child seeking comfort from their mother.

Humming in response to Vahn's words, Shiroyasha changed the display to depict a version of Seraphina wearing a rather stylish military uniform as she commanded a fleet of Prinny-themed ships against an armada of ivory white ships with angelic wings. The same bunny girl from before was standing next to her, but, instead of possessing golden-blonde hair and a rather vulnerable appearance, she now possessed blood-red eyes, pale-grey hair, rather fierce-looking claws, and an obsidian black outfit in place of her previously bright yellow attire.

Just as Vahn was about to ask what the scene was depicting, the display Seraphina was using to oversee the battlefield became obscured by a massive beam of light. In the very next moment, a seemingly unstoppable torrent of energy tore through the ship she had been commanding. When the light faded away, all traces of Seraphina had been erased from the Netherworld.

As the pupils of Vahn's eyes contracted, Shiroyasha explained, "She did fall in love with a demon named Killidia, but, as fate would have it, he was already in love with someone else. She helped to revive the former's lost love and then went on to restore her homeworld to its former glory. After that, she reigned over a surprisingly large section of her Netherworld until the Armada of Heaven was deployed to deal with a Demon God known as Baal. Baal possessed the power to absorb the strength of other demons so the idiots in charge of Heaven got it in their heads that they should destroy the other Netherworlds in an effort to slow him down as they researched a means to kill him."

"Are you kidding me...?"

Though he knew she wasn't joking, Vahn felt an overwhelming feeling of incredulity that compelled him to question the truth right in front of him. Even the thought of Seraphina being in charge of an armada was pretty unbelievable. After all, she had already been in her 1700s when they first met. It was difficult to imagine her maturing to the point she could lead a massive fleet when she couldn't even be bothered to pour a cup of tea for herself...

Shaking her head, Shiroyasha explained, "I figured you would ask about it at some point so I kept a close eye on the reality I pulled you from. Though your existence was erased from that world, your actions caused irreversible ripples in fate. That girl, Seraphina, became a pretty serious person after helping to save several Netherworlds. By the eve of her 2800th birthday, she had managed to gain infamy as the 'Supreme Overlord of Gorgeous' after forcing more than a thousand other Overlords to submit. After that, she started a campaign for Prinny rights that caused a number of civil wars to break out across the metaverse..."

"..."

With Shiroyasha changing the image on the television to display Seraphina's various exploits, Vahn fell into a period of deep thought before asking, "What's up with the chibi bunny demon who keeps appearing alongside her...?"

"Oh~? I was wondering when you would ask. Her name is Usalia. As for her background...well, let's just say you're better off not knowing. That girl experienced something rather traumatizing but she managed to overcome it with the help of Seraphina and several others. If I told you what happened, you would probably do something unbelievably stupid so let's just leave it at that."

"..."

Though he was even more interested after hearing Shiroyasha's words, Vahn decided to trust in her judgment on the matter. Unfortunately, his silence created an opportunity for Shiroyasha to tease him, a mischievous grin developing across her face as she said, "She's more than 1800 years old in the latter scenes. That makes her perfectly legal in most worlds. How about it? Should we summon both of them~?"

Furrowing his brows, Vahn found himself seriously considering Shiroyasha's proposal. At the same time, however, he felt it wasn't his place to intervene in the lower realms. It already took quite a bit of willpower not to look into what happened in the Tower following his departure. He could always find out through his Templates, but, for the time being, he wanted to focus on getting a foothold in the Little Garden.

Noticing Vahn's hesitation, Shiroyasha decided to make things easier for him, stating, "If you help those two develop Fragments of Origin, you could drastically improve the quality of life for every version of them across all realities. Besides, they're super cute. Are you fine with letting them lose their lives in such a tragic way~?"

Deadpanning in response to Shiroyasha's words, Vahn met the mischievous demoness' cat-like eyes before asking, "Are you sure you're not just looking for more people to tease...?"

Amused by Vahn's accusation, Shiroyasha snickered in her characteristically mischievous manner before flexing the muscles of her bubbly bottom in a playful manner and answering, "We can tease them together..."
