Chapter 1285
I took in a breath after what felt like forever. I was still standing, and looked down to see Miki still in my arms. Our souls were no longer connected, but there was a bond there in place.
“Ah! The slave bond!”
“I put it back in place since I knew Master would do something foolish like object!” Miki declared.
“You… put it in place? Aren’t you the slave?”
“Spiritual bonds are easy to work with.” She shrugged. “Since we already formed the bond, restoring what was cut was rather easy.”
I grew excited for a moment. “You healed the bond! Wait, can you heal the bonds to all of my girls?”
She shook her head sadly. “Unfortunately, they’d need to be present. If they were here, I could restore the bonds in an instant.”
“I see…” I sighed.
It looked like it wouldn’t be that easy after all.
“I may be able to come up with a way to strengthen the bonds though, make them harder to cut in the future.”
“Really?” I blinked. “That’s awesome. Definitely do that!”
She looked up at me with loving and mischievous eyes. She looked just like Miki of old. If there was any difference, she gave off a feeling of wisdom and maturity now. Her pale hair now had black tips, and even her tail had a black tip. Her eyes and complexion were just a bit darker, giving her a slightly gothic feel. Pale skin, dark eyes, and black-tipped hair… she kind of looked like a goth girl. She was just missing a nose ring or maybe a nipple ring-like Salicia.
Miki suddenly broke into a giggle. “Master…”
“What?”
“I’m just remembering how you were back in the day. You used to dread our slave bond, and even want to remove it. Now, you say you want it stronger. You’re also looking at me with such a naughty look.”
I stiffened slightly. I was being a bit overbearing. Miki shook her head and smiled.
“No, I like this side of Master. It’s very sexy.”
“You’re kind of sexy too…” I responded, reaching around and grabbing her butt.
“Oo!” She made a cute noise as I leaned down to kiss her.
“Master, shouldn’t we figure out where we are first?”
“Hmm?” I looked around carefully for the first time since we had appeared. “Ah… we’re not in Dioshin?”
We were standing in a beautiful meadow. It reminded me of the first level of the Maid’s Lament, but it wasn’t rainy and cloudy, but bright with the sun up overhead.
“Miki! You’re okay!” Celeste suddenly slammed into Miki from behind, giving us both hugs.
“Mmm! Mmmph!” Miki ended up getting sandwiched between us, or in particular, between Celeste’s breasts.
“Oh, good, you guys are here as well? Where is this place?”
“Gah!” Miki finally managed to push Celeste away, but Celeste responded by shrinking to fairy form and then flying onto my shoulder. “You big-titted bimbo!”
“Isn’t that the weak complaint of someone who lacks the stature?” Elaya spoke up, walking through the fields almost as if she was familiar with them.
“You… bullying me! I just returned and I’m being bullied!” Miki cried. “Do you want to die, witch?”
“Oh my… I’ve seen your spiritual ability. I wouldn’t dare wish to fight. I wouldn’t be certain I’m your match anymore. Master, you do surround yourself with some powerful women. Soon, I won’t be a match.”
Her words were too complimentary, so Miki stared at her suspiciously, expecting it to be a hidden slight. I didn’t pay attention to their spat. Instead, I checked my map. I could see this entire space, and it ended at only two miles. That wasn’t to say that I could only see that distance. There was nothing to this world beyond that distance.
That’s when my eyes landed on something strange. It was a pile of items just sitting around. I quickly recognized the items. They were the items in my inventory!
“Elaya… where are we?” I asked again.
“Remember how your dungeon became a god dungeon?” She asked instead of answering.
“Yeah.”
“Remember how it evolved, and we weren’t sure how it evolved?”
“I guess.”
“Well, it turns out that the evolution of your dungeon wasn’t physical, but… hmmm… spiritual.”
I frowned. “What are you saying?”
“Your dungeon now exists on two planes of existence. There is the physical dungeon, but there is also a soul dungeon. As for that soul dungeon, the entrance to it, rather, its location… exists within a powerful god soul.”
My eyes widened. “You don’t mean…”
“That’s right, Master. We’re inside your soul world!”
