Val approached the woman dressed in a maid outfit, who introduced herself as Giselle. "What do you mean by your master invited me?" She demanded.

"Considering how people you trusted tried to kill you, I would think that you would jump at the chance to save yourself?" Giselle sighed at how ungrateful Val was being. "Though my Master informed me to treat you with respect and only invite you, a part of me thinks that just taking you to see my Master would be better." She gave Val a cute smile, though the power radiating from her caused Val not to doubt her ability.

"I will come with you. There is no need to force me." Val tiredly replied. Though she was nervous about meeting this person, compared to her current predicament, it was likely better.

"I am glad that you are being more cooperative," Giselle curtsied. Next, to her, a portal appeared.

Val stared at the portal with wonder. Space magic was a potent magic, so not many are able to use it. The fact that this woman didn't need to chant was very intimidating.

As she approached the portal, the expression on Giselle's face made Val think she would be pushed into the portal if she didn't hurry. One moment Val was in her office and then she was in a wealthy area. Val noticed two cylinders with one of them holding a woman. She was surprised that the woman was on fire, with scales covering parts of her body. In the other cylinder was a floating boulder. Val wondered what was happening with those containers. As she was about to walk closer to get a better look, a voice startled her.

"I am happy that you finally accepted my offer to visit my city," the voice said.

Jumping, Val looked towards the voice. "Yi! What are you doing here?"

"It seems like Giselle failed to tell you all that she needed to." He chuckled, glancing at Giselle who looked like she was in trouble. "Giselle, there is no need to look depressed. I am not angry at you." His voice was tender.

"Sorry, Master. I just did not want to use the name humans call you. To me, you are Master." Giselle looked saddened at failing Yi.

Yi made a motion with his hand, and Giselle slowly approached him. When she was next to him, Yi lifted his hand up and revealed some kind of treat in his hand. "Take this. I hope it will cheer you up."

Giselle smiled gratefully and snatched the treat, putting it into her mouth. She happily chewed on the food with a big grin on her face. Yi gently stroked Giselle's hair, as she looked like a happy cat the way she turned her head towards Yi as if asking him to shower her with more attention.

"I do not want to interrupt such a lovely scene you are creating, but I would appreciate an explanation!" Val felt herself getting annoyed and ignored the glare that Giselle was giving her.

"It is understandable how you would feel frustrated. I am assuming something happened for Giselle to have personally escorted you here?" Yi asked her, his eyes conveyed how he likely knew what had happened.

Giselle giggled, "She was poisoned by a trusted companion, who placed a poison inside of her drink. Her face turned different shades of blue, as she grasped her throat trying to breathe." Giselle mockingly mimicked how Val looked as she was suffocating.

Yi lightly tapped Giselle on her head, saying, "Giselle, is that how we treat a guest?"

Giselle turned around towards him and made a pouting face, with both her hands clasped together in front of her. Val wasn't sure whether this woman was truly reflecting what she was doing or just wanted Yi to think positively of her.

"Be obedient, or I am going to have to tell you to go talk with Brittany," Yi said sternly.

"Yes, Master!" She quickly changed her expression and nodded her head cutely. "Giselle will make sure to be a good girl."

"I know you will." Yi rested a hand on her arm. Leaning back on his throne, he patted his lap which made Giselle squeal and lept into his lap. Laying her head on his chest, looking content and happy.

"I am sorry, for my creation being so disrespectful. I hope you can forgive them, they are not used to interacting with people outside of this Stronghold causing them to appear somewhat callous towards outsiders. She truly is a good girl and does not mean what she says." He stroked one of Giselle's legs as he tried to explain the situation.

"I just want to know why you are in this scenario, when the last time I saw you, you were just a student and the son of some family," Val stated.

"There is a confession I need to make. I am not part of a wealthy family, and never considered myself a student in the sense you are thinking. All of this," Yi waved his hand to indicate the room, "was created by me. Even adorable Giselle was created by me." From his serious expression, Val could see that he wasn't lying to her.

"How are you able to do all this, and why were you at the Academy?" Val asked, feeling like the world was becoming strange and bizarre.

"My ability can be called, Creation. With my ability, I can make things materialize, modify them, and various other things. To answer the second question, I was at the Academy to learn more about this world." Yi stated simply.

"Wait! You are telling me that you can do all these things, yet you ignore everything happening in the world?!" Val demanded, becoming frustrated.

"What would you have me do. Solve all life's mistakes and end all suffering?" Yi asked.

"Yes! If you have the ability, why do you not?" She demanded.

"Is Master supposed to be some slave to you humans?!" Giselle got up and leaned towards Val as she bared her teeth. "Why should Master do anything aside from being with us? He has made this city and provided humans with what you call paradise, and it still is not enough?!" She sneered at Val.

"There. There. I understand that this is something difficult for many that do not live in this city." Yi soothed Giselle. "Yes. Solving what you say would be easy, but to what end? Is all sentient life just supposed to become dependent on me? I have provided a template for the world with this city. Let us call it a proof of concept. When other parts of the world decide that they would like to adopt to the model demonstrated here, then we can talk, but I sense that many would not be happy. Neither those who are ruling nor those being ruled." He explained. "Do you mean to have me mentally influence everyone and strip them of their free will? Would you like me to take my army and conquer the world?" Yi asked, his face clearly amused at the thought. "These things would be easy for me to do, but it will not bring the outcome I think is necessary to this world. Progress on that scale will need to take time, as those who can not adapt are weeded out by the people themselves."

Giselle stuck out her tongue at Val and went back to resting her head on Yi's chest. Though she looked like a young woman, Giselle acted very childishly. The image was very jarring to Val.

"Then what is your overarching goal? I do not understand what the point of all this is then." Val indicated to everything.

"I do not have an overarching goal. At the moment, I am starting to think that there was never an overarching goal, some divine purpose. Even the gods that many worships on this world were created by a race more powerful than them. I choose to place my energy into areas that I am curious about. You may think that I am wrong about this, so I challenge you to prove me wrong. Stay in this city and demonstrate that what you think is the correct way and that I am incorrect with my current morals."

Val listened to Yi and wondered what made him become such a person. She wouldn't classify him as being evil, but as someone who ceased caring about the world. He concentrated only on his own desires, instead of thinking about his external environment. She was both saddened and frustrated with him. A part of her wanted to grab him by the collar and shake some sense into him, but when she made an unconscious step forward, Val noticed Giselle's eyes locked onto her. The childishness in Giselle was completely gone in that single look. Val took a step back, and Giselle closed her eyes and returned back to her cute cuddling.

Several drops of cold sweat ran down her back, as she understood that she had been underestimating the woman even after witnessing Giselle's magical talents.

"You seem a bit stressed and overwhelmed, especially after what happened to you. How about you stay in this city for as long as you like. If you find an interest you want to pursue, feel free to join in. The people in the various positions will more than help you." Yi snapped his finger and a set of doors opened and in came a gorgeous maid.

The maid had a very different expression compared to the one that Giselle had. It seemed to be an opposite personality with this woman, an overly serious type. As she reached where Val was standing, the woman curtsied asking, "Master, is there anything I may help you with?"

"Yes. I would like you to help Val find a place to stay and assist her with her first couple of days in this city. She is likely to be very startled by the machinations of this place, so I would appreciate you being patient with her." Yi commanded.

"As my Master commands, so I obediently and loyally follow." The woman intoned as if she actually believes what she was saying to Yi.

As she rose, the woman looked at Val and stated, "I will be accompanying you to help make your transition as smooth as possible. Please inform me if there are any issues, so that I may help address them." She was then directing Val to follow. Looking back, Val saw Yi curiously looking at her, as if he wasn't sure what to think about her.

Looking forward, Val could only wonder about how life was going to be different here.

-------

Han watched as Val walked out of the throne room. He was amused at the way she admonished him for not using his ability to their full potential. "What did you think of Val?" He asked Giselle, who was still laying on his chest. She reminded him of an adorable kitten as she rested there.

"Giselle thinks that woman is arrogant for lecturing Master." She answered, sounding annoyed.

"Why do you think that?" He asked, genuinely curious about how she would respond.

"Why should Master be at the beck and call for humans? Even if Master would provide everything for them, they would never grow into anything worth the time. They would just enjoy the life Master offered them."

"What about the people living in this city? They seemed to be trying to reach their potential." He tried to trip her up.

"But these people came risking everything, wanting to choose a better life. Master did not just hand it to them." She countered, one eye slightly opened.

Enjoying the debate he had, Han looked up and pondered the words that Giselle said. Though it was slightly different from what he thought, it was still a process which was followed in a logical manner. Even if she was created by him, like the others, she began to develop her own opinions. This made it very enjoyable for him, thinking that his creations were separate from him though it didn't mean they were disloyal.

He also thought about the words Val said about there being an end goal. Han had created this city to see whether humans were capable of self-development if everything was provided for them. In this sense, he had succeeded with the experiment, though he still believed that it wouldn't be successful if it were rolled out to other areas of the world. A part of it had to do with what Giselle stated.

A slight hissing noise made him turn his head over to look at the cylinders. The doorway that Selestra and Ha-Yoon had taken were now open. He was both happy and startled to see that the process had completed and was eager to see how they developed.

As the smoke cleared from each of the cylinders, the first to exit from their respective container was Selestra. When she emerged, her skin appeared to be ablaze, like there was a great fire. There were scales that ran up the side of her body and back, in a way that didn't hinder a person to see her womanly charms. The scales seemed to enhance her appearance, instead of diminishing it. On top of the head was a single horn that seemed to curve back slightly. It looked delicate but also very strong. Her eyes were radiating power from them, a reptilian slit replacing her human irises. Han felt himself gulping at how sensual she looked, a little older than when she first entered but still retaining her youthful innocence.

Prying his eyes off of Selestra, Han was surprised that there was still a cacoon in the cylinder and Ha-Yoon hadn't emerged. Just as he was about to show concern, the cacoon began to crack open. From the sound of the cracking, the shell was very durable, likely blocking any external attacks from injuring her. A clawed hand emerged from the egg, which pried open the remaining shell. Out came flowing purple hair, which seemed to shimmer with its own light. Sometimes it would appear to change colors as if there were bioluminescent elements in the hair. Instead of looking like the naturally occurring human hair, it looked more spindly like it was magnificent horns. When the head rose up, Han was happy to see Ha-Yoon's face, though there were some streaks of purple on her face. Along with her body, there were scales, but different from Selestra's reptile ones. These looked closer to an insect carapace. As he pondered about it, Han realized that she reminded him of the monsters if they were closer to insects. What impressed him the most was the wings that emerged, like from some great dragon. Though he would have thought that selestra would have wings, Han didn't believe that Ha-Yoon looked bad with the wings. It gave her a very Amazonian look, like some warrior queen.

Both of them were stumbling on their feet as they got used to the way their new bodies worked, which was understandable. He imagined that he would have trouble if his body went through such drastic changes.

Han carefully lifted up Giselle and set up down next to him. On his feet, he walked over to where Ha-Yoon and Selestra were adapting to their new selves. "I am happy that the two of you have emerged looking so beautiful and healthy. There is nothing more that I could hope for as I watch the two of you." He congratulated them.

As they became acutely aware of their environment, the two of them kneeled in front of Han. "Master, through your powers we have emerged stronger and more dedicated to serving you. Our hearts and bodies now fully belong to you, and we are honored to be allowed to be with you together for all eternity." They both stated at the same time. Though he knew that they felt this way before, the way they voiced it this time was completely different as if there was a resolute certainty to the reality they painted.

"Rise. From now until all reality ends and even after, I look forward to having you serve me." Han answered them.

Both rose and had faces full of confidence and love. They no longer had the weaknesses that were naturally inherent inside of humans, with their doubts and physical limitations. Instead, they appeared no different than his other creations.

"How do you feel?" He asked them.

"I feel so much strength coursing through me, Master," Ha-Yoon said with wonder in her voice. "I sense that my abilities are far greater than my current self."

"Master, I feel as magnificent as a dragon or Phoenix. Is this what it feels to have such control over fire?" Selestra asked looking at him, with a broad grin on her face.

"I am happy that you are satisfied with your current self. Ha-Yoon, you are right in that there are more things your power can control. Just looking at your abilities, I see that you have the ability to mentally command insectoid creatures that are not too far from what the monsters in the Overflow are. It seems like you are a variant of them." He looked at Ha-Yoon, happy that she is enjoying the additional powers she has.

"Yes. It appears that you have complete mastery of fire. You are so close to it that your body itself can shift partially into it. No longer will things be able to stand in your way, before you incinerate them into nothingness." He explained to Selestra.

"Master, we have been away from you for far too long." Selestra looked at him with a cute expression. Ha-Yoon after hearing Selestra also demonstrated a carnal desire.

------

Han enjoyed seeing the two of them lead him into his bedchamber. Seeing them have such confidence while also appearing shy made him want to embrace them.

When they reached his bed, Han sat down at the edge of the bed and watched the two of them. The two of them swayed their hips, as if some music was taking hold of them. Selestra's body with its flames appeared to make her hips look more erotic as if each of the flames were motioning him to come closer. With Ha-Yoon, the way she moved was smoother than a human could naturally move. Each side of her hips appeared to gently raise and lower themselves, like the top of a calm sea. Both her hypnotic in their movements, as if fighting for Han's attention.

Selestra used her hands and cupped her breasts as if she were offering them to Han. With her fingers, she lightly stroked her hard nipples. Her soft moans went with the movements of her fingers. Ha-Yoon, on the other hand, placed both hands on her breasts and slowly worked her way down, like some kind of sexual serpent. As the hands reached her belly button, one of her hands continued down towards her pussy while the other went back up. Squeezing one of her breasts, she used the other hand to finger herself.

Seeing how drops of fluids were leaking out of both of their pussies, Han felt his penis get more erect. It had been a while since the last time he had been seduced, and his body was already reacting from the sight of two beautiful women dancing in front of him.

"Master, I have missed you," Selestra whispered, coming closer to him. "I want to show you my devotion to you." She began kissing his neck, her tongue gently licking him. Slowly, Selestra began working up his neck. When she was near his ear, her breathing could be felt. "Master, I want you to fill me up." She moaned. Moving towards his mouth, she kissed him seductively, first teasing his lips with her tongue and then meeting his lips with her own.

Han felt a hand gently reached for his erect penis, and Ha-Yoon's voice moans in pleasure. "Master, I want to show you how much I love you." Shortly after, he felt her breathing on the head of his penis and then the warm and wet sensation of her mouth. There was a pleasant feeling of her tongue as it caressed his dick. Her strokes were slow and constant, but slowly he felt her tongue wrap several times around his penis. This was a sensation he had never felt before, and as he was sighing at the feeling, he was then overwhelmed by a sucking sensation. With the way her tongue was moving up and down, Ha-Yoon was also sucking on him as if she wanted to drain him.

Feeling the rhythmic stroking and sucking sensation, Han quickly grabbed Ha-Yoon's head and shouted, "I am about to cum. Drink all of it!" Hearing Han's command, it felt like Ha-Yoon doubled her efforts, her tongue caressing him faster and her sucking him harder. Han felt himself ejaculate into her mouth, a profound and prolonged feeling which left himself feeling dazed. Instead of removing her mouth, she continued as if she was asking Han for more.

Selestra moved herself so that she could place her large breasts in front of his face. Pressing them together, she said, "Master, I miss feeling you enjoy my breasts." Her breathing became short and rapid, as she was growing more turned on by the experience.

Han took his hands off of Ha-Yoon's head and reached for Selestra's breasts. Grabbing each breast with one hand, he began licking one of her nipples. He liked how hard she became and the way she moaned when his tongue ran itself atop her nipples. Placing his mouth over it, he began to suck on it while rolling her nipple with his tongue, at the tip, and at the base. With his other hand, he gently pulled on her nipples and enjoyed the way she gasped.

"M~~~aster! I am about ready to..." A warm sensation could be felt on his stomach as Selestra squirted on him. This made him even harder, which gave Ha-Yoon an excuse to suck him off harder. He felt himself cumming in her mouth several more times, as she never took her head away from his penis. It was as if she didn't think there was anything more delicious than what came out of him.

At this moment, Han didn't think he could be even happier being cared for by such amazing women. He enjoyed the sound of Ha-Yoon's whining as he gently pushed her head away and then pushed Selestra down onto the bed. As she lay on her back and spread open her legs, Han looked at the seductive look Selestra was giving and thought it was going to be a long night.
