Debauchery of a Soul-Eating Wraith

Daria's lips were stretched in a delighted smile at the intimate intensity of Evian filling her up but she was holding out for something else.

You see, before she had indulged in Evian's Wraithic energy herself, she had been much too cavalier about how he followed up his seed-shooting with the chilly energy but now that she had it in her body as well and was using it in conjunction with her Spiritual energy to improve her strength, she was excited to feel it again.

And sure enough, Evian delivered.

Daria's seal glowed above her left breast and the commanding seal deep within Evian's soul was roused as well. They began to resonate and the Eldritch energy that Evian had shot within her did not cut off in supply. More of it was getting pulled out of his body and into Daria's.

By instinct, Daria brought up the mechanics of the Decadent and Pure Revolution and used them to seize control of the Eldritch chill within her before it could run rampant. She absorbed it with a frenzy and it didn't take long for Evian to realize the absorption was not being done through her body but rather her soul.

With a pressure that let loose reverberations that struck against the walls of the room, Daria arched her back with her face towards the ceiling as the pressure coming from her gained a form in the shape of an apparition that looked just like Daria but had a strange diadem on top of its head and an almost wicked smile on her face.

The Apparition's eyes were completely dark and its luminescent form gave off an aura that unmistakably belonged to the Abyss. Daria's arched back relaxed and she looked into Evian's face. The smile on her face matched that of her apparition.

Evian's brows were furrowed. He wasn't worried, he just found the situation curious which was why he allowed even more of his Eldritch reserves to be absorbed.

The longer the absorption went on, the more 'concrete' Daria's apparition became and the more aggressively Spiritual energy struck at her only to be absorbed readily and give way for a cultivational breakthrough.

Fifth Step of the Fifth Circle…

Sixth Step of the Fifth Circle…

Seventh Step of the Fifth Circle…

Eighth Step of the Fifth Circle…

Ninth Step of the Fifth Circle…

In the space of a minute, cultivation that Daria had deliberately kept at the Fourth step of the Fifth Circle while focusing more on the strengthening of her Soul received multiple breakthroughs and stood at the peak of the Circle and the door to advancing to the next circle.

Evian's reserves were running low…

Daria's confident smile was starting to flicker as that good she had on herself seemed to be slipping away.

"No," Evian said firmly, "Not yet."

As his words hit her ear, Daria regained her grip all for a minute but it was enough as Evian pulled himself off the bed, and wrapped his arms around her to pull her closer while locking their lips together as he pulled from the depths of his recess. Even reaching out to his domain in the Abyss.

And then…

*WHUUUUUMMMMM!!!*

The sound was so powerful that it thrummed with vibrations.

Arcane symbols burst out from Daria's chest and floated to the top of her apparition where they were corrupted by the Eldritch energy now deeply ingrained in her very being. The symbols still had their roots in Spiritual energy but accommodated Eldritch energy.

The two opposing energies moved with unity within those symbols that now circled the head of Daria's apparition like a perverse halo.

The manifestation came to an end and the Apparition returned into Daria's body immediately causing the Witch to let out a gasp. She stared into Evian's eyes and then looked at his lips which she kissed gently,

"I'm spent," she let out in a raspy voice.

Evian chuckled,

"You should be," he said as he rolled them onto the bed until Daria's back was against it. She fell asleep soon after getting tucked under covers.

Evian watched her sleep for a while. What he had just witnessed was truly an incredible sight and furthered his plans for finding a way to unite Spiritual and Eldritch energies for a unique creation free of the restrictions to both.

That said, seeing as Daria had made progress with HIS plans without even knowing about it, Evian reiterated that he was due to continue to make progress with other goals he had.

He crossed his legs and went into his mental valley where his Compendium awaited and he wasted no time getting into attempting his combinations again.

Some worked, and many failed.

The ones that did work were low-level combinations which was strange because he managed a combination between Abyssal Symbols gotten from two spells he purchased as a Wraith Lord (Fifth Circle/Order) and what came as a result was a binding spell that would struggle to hold a Wraith Noble.

"What gives these symbols their might?" Evian wondered.

He had learned through multiple trials and errors that the symbols broken apart were weak at best and totally useless at worst but when they came together, they commanded a 'strange' power. A power that went beyond what a bunch of words put together meant.

Something was present when the symbols were together but absent when they were apart and no matter how hard he tried, Evian could not quite place his finger on it.

[Are you starting to realize how doomed your Plan is? How can you understand a puzzle with so many missing pieces.]

"Then how about you help me find those pieces?" Evian asked.

[I can't do that…]

"Ah, of course. Why will you give me the opportunity to gain independence?"

[That's not the reason I can't help you. You've just assumed it was. Besides, you can never be independent from me. We are much too bonded for that to be possible.

I am here to assist you. I act only for your best interests.]

"Well, you haven't been helpful with this dilemma of mine so I find that hard to believe you," Evian said.

[…]

"Typical," Evian scoffed.

[You're an Idiot!]

"Did you just raise your voice at me? Wow. Never thought you could even do that," Evian mumbled with a look of surprise and a tone of begrudging respect.

[Listen. There are matters at play here that go beyond your silly desires and impatience for power. Wraiths feed for strength but you have managed to feed so fast and so much that you are eclipsing my projections. All I had left to hold on to was that you would at least be bound to obligations of Spell Purchases/Upgrades.

As a Wraith, you are immortal and will have hundreds, if not thousands of years to stockpile Soul Points and grow stronger but somehow, that's too slow for you. You want everything now and you want it fast.]

"You're goddamned right, I do. You call it impatience, I call it focus. And besides, where was all this talk of restraint and patience back when you were goading me to get right up and start consuming souls? In a World you knew damn well, I didn't recognize or understand.

You wanted me hungry for Souls and strength but now that it's happening, it's too fast and I should slow down? Fuck you!"

[You don't understand the nuances of these things. I wanted you to get strong quickly because you needed strength to defend yourself. Because Wraiths are not usually social with the people in the realm of the living enough to live among them as you do so I thought you might as well discard the 'cover' and survive.

But, you proved me wrong.

Even now, as a Wraith Prince, I can feel you in control. I can feel your desire to indulge in your women and socialize with people clash with your desire for souls and not lose out. You are efficient in Soul-eating when you need to be and charming when you have to.

You don't need immediate survival. You are an Anomaly and the stronger you become, the more attention you will draw to yourself.

And not from these humans, No, I am referring to horrors worse than anything you can imagine.]

"Then getting stronger is a priority and gaining the ability to create my own repertoire of spells is essential to that," Evian said.

[Perhaps. It's a delicate balance. If you attract attention before you can face that horror, you won't survive it, and yet, because it's almost an inevitable encounter, you must be prepared.

*Sigh* What a dilemma…

Very well, I will tell you how you can complete your Compendium.]

"You will?" Evian said, taken aback by this sudden forthrightness from his Assistant.

[I will. The reason why I haven't been helpful is because I can't be.]

"There's something even you don't know?" Evian asked. Partly to stoke his Assistant's ego and partly because he was truly curious.

[Indeed there is.

Just one but it's quite possibly the most dangerous and incredible information of them all…]
