Chapter 380 A Wild Night
—–
(Maria’s POV)
When I woke up, the sun was already rising from the horizon. The light of the sun was warm and comforting, and for some reason it really felt nice despite being a ghost. It felt as if it permeated my “skin” very deliciously… Wait, deliciously?
There’s something odd. I feel more… real than before? It seems that this might be related to a Skill- Wait, right! [Materialization] had evolved into [Embodiment] last night! I forgot about that… Is this why I feel so “real” now?
I looked into my hands, and touched them, they felt so fleshy it was slightly frightening. I had the impulse of grabbing a knife, cutting myself, and seeing if blood would come out, and I did. But what came out was just bluish phantasmal essence. And the “wound” wasn’t even one, as everything healed automatically.
Wow, I guess I am even more “real” yet inside, I am still a phantasmal entity. This feels very odd, but I’ll take it. Is this why my hands feel slightly strangely warm? Not really warm, I am still almost dead cold, but I can absorb warmth better, the sun feels nice because of this… Perhaps my materialized body is like that of a lizard now and I’ll need to bathe inn sunlight to warm up a bit.
Before, it was impossible to gain any type of warmth after all, not even to retain it. So it felt slightly weird. It even made me slightly… sad. I have now three lovers, although we have yet to make things completely official, but I feel I cannot even give them the warmth I wish I could give to them.
Maybe this is why I only I’ve done it with Partner… Though she was slightly pushy. But I’ve restrained myself from doing anything aside from kissing and hugging because I know I cannot… properly give them the warmth they deserve.
Of course, I love being an OP Ghost, but sometimes… It kind of makes me sad. I was alive once, so I remember the warmth of the living, how it felt to be so energetic and everything. It kind of gets me sad every time I remember I cannot even give comfort and warmth to those I love so much…
Could the path towards a more “living” body be in the Embodiment Skill? I’ll have to practice with it some more to see how far it can get as well. Maybe… Just maybe I could give them more comfortable hugs, and hold their hands, and share warmth… And kiss them without feeling like I will give them a cold.
And love them some more…
Ugh, I’ve been working a bit too hard lately, I might need a small break from all the fighting and war. What should I even do for now? My job is actually done here but of course, I’ll help Julia get everything going. But I suppose that after that… We’ll grab food and supplies and then run back home. I am missing everybody there.
And after that… I have no idea. We might just wait until the meeting between rulers of the Kingdom while finding the clues for my little brother and my aunt that is taking care of him. I also want to meet him. Hm, yeah, waiting is not my style though. Although I am saying I’m tired, I am a hyperactive girl, so I like to go around. We might use our free time to visit the Dwarf Kingdom in the Ash Mountains and try to find any survivors of Lucifer’s Dragon Family. I would really like to meet new people too.
And of course, we have to investigate the whole ordeal with the cursed ice and how to uncurse it. Though… I wonder if I can do it now that I’ve grown strong enough. It might be worth a shot whenever we get back home.
“Hah~ Yeah, no, there’s actually a lot to do! Alright, time to get up! We’ll spend the week here and then we’ll go back home, it is decided!” I said triumphantly, suddenly realizing I was buck naked. “Huh? What happened here?”
I looked at my bed and quickly realize there were three buck naked people there as well.
It was Lucifer, Partner, and Emeraldine.
Hold up a second.
Wait… wait a bit.
“D-Did we do it?” I wondered, looking back at my memories, things were dizzy.
But I do remember I just got very drunk in the celebration night, like, too much. It seems that the alcohol Julia shared with us was made with a very strong liquor that was made by the Holy Empire, and they kind of… blessed it with light or something? For resume, it affected me a lot because that’s my weakness.
So I got super drunk and began doing a bunch of stuff I usually don’t do… But…
Ah!
Now I remember a bit. I carried Lucifer with my arms and brought him to bed.
And then I… sucked his thing.
Ah… Why did I just do something so lewd out of nowhere?!
Well, it’s not as if he wasn’t enjoying it!
Okay, I have to calm down. Memories are flowing into my mind constantly as I begin to recall everything. That night I got super drunk, fucked Lucifer in bed like a barbarian, which surprises me now, as I consider he left himself be dominated so easily while being a prideful dragon and all… And lastly, Emeraldine and Partner joined in when Lucifer was left half-dead over the bed. After that… we had fun between girls and then I passed out.
Damn.
This wasn’t how I expected I would have sex for the first time with Lucifer and Emeraldine. It was too sudden, but I can tell I enjoyed it. I wish I could had been a bit more conscious there though, but I know they liked it as well. Though next time, I’ll try doing it while I’m not so drunk.
Well, there’s always more opportunities in the future, right?
