Chapter 795 Chapter 794: Power Down..?
My vision swam for a brief moment as my body went weak, causing me to lean over as I stared at the ground before my body returned to its normal equilibrium a few seconds later as my mana was flushed of the excess Lust Mana and allowed to return to its pure state.
Taking in a deep breath of the warm, sizzling air, I gathered myself and stood back up, looking around at the devastated street that was scorched, broken and utterly unrecognizable from just ten minutes before, when it was covered in monster blood and mortal corpses.
Now, instead of those Cultists corpses we had two dead Demons and one severely injured Demon, who was already getting medical attention from Leone as the True Vampire knelt beside them, her palms radiating a softer glow than before as she tried to do everything she could for the wounded Demon.
We hadn't left this battle unscathed; the mages were completely drained, our Cores aching and throbbing inside ours chests as they demanded rest, resulting in the dull headaches and woozy feeling we all had now, whilst the warriors suffered physical wounds like scrapes, cuts, bruises and some more severe injuries.
Anput's arm was still heavily damaged, the Jackalkin shuffling her feet over to me as she pouted, holding the wound and whining "Kat, it hurts..!", while Jahi rubbed at her ribs, the Demoness flinching as she poked a spot too hard and aggravated the wound a little too much.
Smiling wryly at my mate, I gently took her arm and began to inspect the wound, which had been treated rudimentarily earlier but still needed some serious treatment; though as soon as I touched her arm, the Jackalkin hissed and frowned at me, her obsidian eyes getting a tad wet as she pouted harder, which made me roll my eyes.
"You'll be fine, you big baby... If you can fight with it, you can deal with the treatment."
"But it hurts more now..! Ouch! Hey! Careful, careful..!"
Watching as she continued to flinch and wince as I started to heal her, I rolled my eyes again and continued to heal her, the soft blue glow of my Water Mana washing over the wound and accelerating her healing factor, which allowed the Jackalkin to slowly stop focusing on the pains and instead...
"Hey... Kat? Can I uh... I think I'll need a checkup later tonight, y'know? Just to make sure everything's good with my arm and all..?"
The small smile on her face as she stepped closer to me made me smile back at her, though the appearance of a towering blue skinned Demoness made us both freeze before we looked up towards her smirking face, those amethyst eyes glowing with amusement as she said "No, what you need is some conditioning Anput~! Make sure it can take some more stress... Don't worry, I can heal you too~!"
Anput shivered, but she nodded as she pursed her lips, looking up at the Demoness from the corner of her eyes and blushing softly, though it was hard to see on the dark street... her tail swishing side to side wasn't though, which made Jahi's smirk widen before she looked at me, that amusement disappearing as she asked "So that pink hue on your ice... what was that?"
Keeping my eyes focused on Anput's wound, I watched as her flesh and muscle began to regrow and reknit beneath the blue haze of my healing spell, which was hastened by the potion Anput drank as she waited for an answer as well.
"Cali gave me access to her Lust Mana. A... taste of what it can do. A way to ensure that this Fiend died, that we didn't allow it to escape. So... she let me siphon some of her mana through our bond and tried to make me understand how to access it in the future. A lesson and a necessity at the same time, I guess."
"Lust Mana... I thought only Fiends could utilize the mana of their domains though? Or is that bond between you and her that strong that you are able to cultivate this new mana alongside your own?"
I nodded, only to sigh as Cali appeared beside me with the silver ring in her hand as she giggled, amusing herself with the silver ring as she spun it around her arm and saying "Something like that, little miss Scion~! That crest atop her groin is a container that either of us can access. A cup of wine that she can sip from, or I can take a sip from. Because I decided to take her in as my dear, sexy minx of a Masque, she has a certain privilege that other Cultists don't have; she can make use of 'Fiendish' Mana so long as she is tied to a Fiend. Me~!"
Leaning forwards, the Arch Fiend kissed my cheek before dancing away, adding "I'll go have some fun teasing that stuck up Foxkin now if you don't mind~! I want to read her a story and watch how quickly her face goes scarlet! Hehe~!"
With a lusty grin on her face, Cali waved goodbye before sauntering down the street, swaying her hips and humming as she played with the silver ring, which was all that was left of the Fiend that was Tza'Orbias.
"I... cannot get used to her. I really can't."
I just chuckled at Jahi's words, nodding before taking some of the cloth from my cloak and rinsing it with water, both of my lovers watching me closely as I tied it around Anput's arm, saying "Keep it there; the pressure will do some good as you get used to the new muscle and tissues. Don't strain yourself just yet; go rest, get something to drink. Now, what hurts?"
Jahi gestured to her ribs and raised her arm, giving me access to her torso and watching me with an amused, heated gaze as I began to tend to her injury next, the Demoness privy to some of my thoughts as she murmured "You know, you're starting to remind me of myself right now... Why're you worrying that we won't look for you, Kat? That we won't think of you when we're injured, when we're lonely, when we want to be comforted... when we're aroused? If anything happens - we wake up, we fight, we drink, we train, we just... exist - we're going to be looking for you and you only, before looking for the others next. So... why are you so..."
Trailing off, the Demoness pursed her lips before looking back towards the other Demons, her amethyst eyes complicated as she finished "Envious..? Jealous? Worried? Hmm?"
