Farewell And Recuperation
Palace. At Heian Ciemnosc's residence's bedroom, hours later.
Pat, pat, ruffle. "There, there." Arla patted Heian Ciemnosc's blankets after being violated by her mouth and throat. She was leaving today, but she wasn't leaving without bidding farewell to Heian Ciemnosc as she wanted. His body still hurt, and he couldn't move, so there were no ins and outs, but she could do with her throat, making for her pleasurable spot in a way that brought her to orgasm. It was a wild thing, and Heian Ciemnosc felt used, but it did the trick, and Arla became an exemplary sister, taking care of him for the following 3 hours.
Patting his bedsheets so Heian Ciemnosc could feel more comfortable after she administrated her sexual urges first and then her caretaking of cultivators’ abilities, Arla sat beside him on his enormous bed. She smiled and pinched his cheeks before kissing his forehead, saying, “I’m going to say goodbye to the Empress and your apprentice, then leave. Thanks, I had fun. I formally invite you to my and Frank’s wedding in… 90 years, more or less. I recently discovered I only didn’t invite you from our circle, you know?”
“So… kind. Mn, thank you for arranging those materials,” Heian Ciemnosc said with some difficulty and under his breath. Arla nodded and patted her left shoulder twice with her fingers before cheerfully saying, “Of course. It’s the least I can do after abusing you, hehe. Don’t worry. As you can see, my cultivation wasn’t slowed. In fact, those dragon pals do give a little boost to females from the Myriad Races. I can’t believe they are outside this category. It is strange… This Change is really bringing all sorts of new things in, huh?”
“Oh. The Academy didn’t know about me or my possible Race’s past. It might be a Bloodline. Feel free to tell the others, but don’t bother with the Academy unless they ask.” Heian Ciemnosc said, nodding his pale, haggard face, whose dark blood had long been cleaned before the ceremony. Arla smiled again, this time cutely and adorably, pecked his lips, letting them rest on his for several seconds, and separated from him.
“It’s your path,” Arla said as she patted his chest and dragged her bum away towards the edge of the bed. “You might even be part of this Change’s core events. It’s no longer just a possibility. Nobody will think that after they know you, a Hana-Saga realm 4th stage cultivator, faced off against a Spirit Magna realm 10th stage enemy and survived. Hah, you even threatened that person’s life, right? Stories of it will spread everywhere.”
“It was already big enough in the First Step. Imagine what this news will be like. I’m not only talking about your mighty prowess, eh. Hehe.” Arla sat at the edge of his bed and said, causing Heian Ciemnosc to roll his eyes. She added, “They will think that you will fall down in the Third Step, just like those records said about the Great Sage, and that your bright present will enhance your doomed future.”
“But, Heian Ciemnosc,” Arla stood up and looked back at him, her butt well defined in an angle that defined it the most. “We’ve known each other for about a decade… If I, your people, your wife, and your new adoptive family didn’t think you were… this talented… Do you think they would let you go through such insane things? You have no idea how much Teacher Puru and I have struggled to keep their asses busy with other managing missions. Sakura even started her own harem, haha.”
“Oh? Authentic, I assume,” Heian Ciemnosc said, watching her swing her hips and bubble her exquisite, small butt. Arla nodded as she walked around the bed to leave the room and twirled on one step and then another. “She wanted to find a cute girl for each Craftsmaking profession at first, but then, she found 2 cuties with great talent in alchemy. They were our providers of theriac pills since you left, the ‘ordinary’ ones that aren’t top-notch in the Second Step you only send us.”
“When Sakura found them, he kidnapped them, recruited them, and they are already helping the rest of her harem prepare for life as a Concealed Ornament. But then, she found another in forging, another in caretaking, and another in array formations. So, I guess she got what she wanted. As for how Sakura treats them, she learned well from you. They went through tough training, but the warmth they spread in the Team is astounding.”
“The others, you know. Only Sakura wanted to keep it a surprise, but she asked me to relay this before I left. She wants some advice in training her future wifeys. Cute, isn’t it?” Arla said, at Heian Ciemnosc’s bedroom door and looking sweet. Heian Ciemnosc blinked and nodded at her before saying something. Their farewells were already given, and quite intimately at that. They weren’t so corny as to say goodbye everytime they thought one would leave. “I will contact her later. The war’s over, so Universal Conveyance is fine. Thank you, Arla. When I return, I’ll cage you to the Concealed Ornament Team whether you want it or not.”
“...” Arla rolled her eyes and shook her head, then looked down at him and said before immediately leaving, closing the door, and whooshing out of his residence. “Aren’t you glad everyone else in your team is already?”
Thud, whoosh, tap- tap, slide~.
“...” Heian Ciemnosc remained silent, lying on his bed for a little longer before moving his bed towards his cultivation bedroom. His cultivation base had been bloated for several hours now, and he had retained it for months… It was time to cultivate! Meanwhile, Arla found a young apprentice walking towards his residence and stopped her to bid farewell.
“Big Sister, were you gonna leave without seeing me?” Blauw Ishikyy said as she looked at Arla, and Arla smiled before shaking her shoulders, lunging towards the unsuspecting young girl, and bringing her against her stomach. “Of course not! You thing~! I was just looking for you. I’m still going after your mother before leaving. Why don’t you accompany me?”
“Nah,” Blauw Ishikyy wrinkled her nose and shook her head, “I don’t want to see my mother like that. You do you, ahem. I want to spend time with my teacher. Even if he’s busy cultivating. I feel too anxious. If I’m not fighting, I can only seek teacher to relax. Even if he doesn’t let me in, I can just cultivate outside his room in peace. Otherwise, even mother’s beginner’s dishes won’t help me to calm down.”
“Heh? Ahem, alright. Then, let me give you a kiss. You might not see me for years to come. Don’t you want to remember me? I wanna remember you, cutie chick.” Arla hid her embarrassed blush and said. Blauw Ishikyy nodded continuously at Arla’s words, laying her forehead before the big sister and closing her eyes. Arla grinned and smooched that cinnamon forehead while hugging Blauw Ishikyy’s head, holding her gently.
“Take care. And what you have is nothing wrong. For civilians and citizens, maybe. But for us cultivators, having such a warmonger nature is priceless. Just don’t obsess over it. Learn yourself first, chick. Ask your teacher many things. You won’t have to work something to make him answer you after leaving you for so long. Trust me. Just pout and flash him a nipple or som-”
“Big Sister!” Blauw Ishikyy, who was just seriously nodding and looking at her big sis admiringly, blushed blue and playfully slapped Arla’s right shoulder before burying her head on Arla’s stomach. Arla grinned like a motherfucker, hugged the young girl a little tighter, and let go with her sighing words spilling out of her mouth. “You have a lot to do. Don’t get lazy. And don’t neglect your people. If you do the former, you’ll get spanks, eh. But if you do the latter, you’ll be left without a personal Imperial Teacher.”
“Okay~,” Blauw Ishikyy said, still holding her burning face onto Arla’s stomach. Arla nodded and let go of the pretty thing. She then added before leaving Blauw Ishikyy to meet her teacher. “I’m leaving. I hope I can be proud of you too next time we meet. Ah, and good luck.”
“...” Blauw Ishikyy shook her head, watching her big sister leave and thought inside her head. ‘Why is everyone so obvious? Ugh, this didn’t happen in those comics and dramas. So frustrating! Agh, whatever. I have alone time with teacher, heh heh.’
Step, step, step, step, step. Thus, Blauw Ishikyy ignored everything else and directly walked towards Heian Ciemnosc’s residence. She smoothly entered it without any problem, felt his array formations confirm her identity, and hopped towards his bedroom. She found nobody in it, so she walked to the meditation room, but before knocking at it, she turned to the cultivation room and knocked on it.

Knock, knock. Slide. The door opened as soon as Blauw Ishikyy knocked on the door, plastering a wide smile on her face. She stepped in, and the door closed behind her. She wasn’t against waiting outside, as she heard many of her soldier units say things about showing their fidelity to their master like that and only enter when their master was able to part some of their concentration aside to attend them in the middle of cultivation.
When Blauw Ishikyy entered, she looked at her teacher snoozing in his bed, comfy and collected. Suddenly, her nose sniffled as she felt the same scent from Arla’s lips left on her forehead to her teacher’s body… Blauw Ishikyy’s face deeply blushed before she sat down cross-legged and started cultivating tens of meters from Heian Ciemnosc to give him enough space in case he created a typical commotion as he usually does.
Thus, continuous cultivation for several days ensued, and the two focused on cultivating 25/7.
… Pshiiiftt~~hhh!
“!” Blauw Ishikyy’s eyes snapped open as she was just solidifying her cultivation base after a few days of having broken through. She looked towards Heian Ciemnosc, where a tremendous convergence of pure energy was sucked in, with some Inferior Neutral Stones turning to ashes around the bed. Hers were still being used up, but while she placed dozens around her, the bed had thousands. They were replaced each day, making the comparison more bizarre. However, Blauw Ishikyy was already used to this, so she only tilted her head before gazing at his face.
“Come here,” Heian Ciemnosc said as he sat on his bed with his left shoulder bandaged still. The pure energy around the bed wasn’t from the stones but the world itself, drawn into the cultivation room via the grand array formation. Blauw Ishikyy said nothing and walked over, climbed onto his bed, and sat cross-legged before him. With a compliant tone, she looked at him and said, “What is it, Imperial Teacher?”
“Do you really want to still call me like that? Oh. You can call me as you wish, but I will call you Ishikyy from now on.” Heian Ciemnosc said, pressing his palms together as his bare chest looked ghastly, even to the war-hardened Ishikyy. She looked at him and bit her lips as she combed her hair backwards and waited for further instructions. Heian Ciemnosc took a flask from his Covert Space bags and gave it to her.
“Put it on me. I’ll teach you in the meantime. What would you like to ask?” Heian Ciemnosc said as he laid back down on the mattress and took his bandages out, but Ishikyy was already filling her hands with the unguent in the flask. It was oil-like but very slippery. It didn’t stay in her hand, but she knew this stuff and knew it would latch onto any wound it found, even from Fauna and flora, underwater, underground, or within substances such as lava and acid. One of few top-notch alchemy products.
“Heh heh, did you hear us? Teach?” Ishikyy asked as she ogled her personal Imperial Teacher’s body and felt bad for its current state. Heian Ciemnosc nodded and said nothing more, waiting for her to bombard him with questions. Ishikyy started from his lower abdomen, where he had cuts the most and looked like a cobweb of brutal wounds and mangled flesh.
“I’d like to know how to… keep myself at bay,” Ishikyy asked while carefully placing her fingers between the wounds, slowly but surely coating them with up to 2 layers of the flask’s unguent. She then added with a slightly embarrassed tone. “I have learned how to behave and not fall into insubordination. I can now move around it and don’t get punished for it. Besides, nobody tries to make trouble for me, and my superiors only push me to find the most clever, thin paths to get out of trouble. And if I ever raise my fist, I would get demoted. Not worth it.”
“Oh…” Heian Ciemnosc nodded as he felt her fingers curiously poke his muscles with her yolks. “When you feel like asking ‘where is the next war?’ or battle, you can sit down and place those thoughts somewhere. Everywhere except on paper. Universal Conveyance, medallion, inner self. You don’t have to write it. You already formed your Soul, so just imprint whatever you want in those. Try it first. If it doesn’t work, I’ll help you figure things out in other ways. That is over. Come to my shoulder. I can heal, but not this fast. And I must keep my cultivation base up for the past wasted time.”
“Ah, mn,” Ishikyy replied, nodded, and straddled Heian Ciemnosc, careful not to land on his dark-bleeding wounds. Her hands rapidly flooded with the unguent as she placed her hands deep into the profound injury, several inches down his defined shoulder. Ishikyy got used to the feeling, although she had gutted hundreds of enemies with her claws alone, and asked again while looking directly into the wound. “Will you really leave us?”
“... Oh. I can’t stay here for long. Still have many things to do, and I can’t achieve them by staying in the Academy or this Existence alone. I’m still a work in progress and have a long way to go.” Heian Ciemnosc said without making excuses. Ishikyy pouted but continued gently administering her careful movements on his shoulders before whispering, “Can you at least promise me you won’t leave without teaching me everything I want to learn from you?”
“Yeah, don’t worry.” Heian Ciemnosc rolled his eyes at the cheeky insinuation and waited for several minutes before Ishikyy was finished with his shoulder, cleaned her hands off his dark blood, and continued with his torso. “Teacher, can I learn another Element?”
“You can, but it might be very difficult for you,” Heian Ciemnosc said, narrowing his eyes a little as he remembered something. Then, Ishikyy interrupted his thoughts, “I want to learn fire. If I combine it with Water, won’t I be able to destroy the world by going against nature? Hehe. Everyone would fear me as they fear teach, but my people would love me as my people love my teach.”
“If you learn well,” Heian Ciemnosc grinned from the left corner of his mouth and shook his head slightly. Heian Ciemnosc added, “But if you want to ‘mix’ Elements, that’s not the way to do it. If you want to create a mighty attack with the magnitude to disorder nature Herself, you first have to know and experience as much as existences have. Or beings, at the very least. Only then will you know why simply merging won’t make a thing, and just like any Element facing off another Element, they will neutralize each other… or avoid one another.”
“Aaah. Then, how can I learn one that goes just fine with me?” Ishikyy asked as she straddled his lower abdomen, where he had a small spot without wounds, sticking her body onto his bare torso and lowering his pants slightly. Heian Ciemnosc knitted his eyebrows as his eyes were still narrowed from before and said. “Have you ever tried… Lightning?”
“Mhm, once. When I was 7, I asked Mom to bring me to the raging storm. The Empire was still suffering from the wars, so I now realize that me asking my Mother something like this must’ve enraged her. She is a very good Mother… Ahem, I ended up being electrocuted by several tiny bolts. I remember them. Each was white and the size of my fingers. Mom brought me away immediately, saying I could’ve died… but I remember her laughing and smiling with me after keeping me a secret for several years.”
“Mom said that, but I don’t remember getting hurt that much. Only my fingies and nose were charred, and I lost consciousness, sure… But I didn’t dislike it,” Ishikyy said as she finished covering a wound and started another. Meanwhile, Heian Ciemnosc’s mind became stagnant as he thought, ‘Eh? So… can it really happen? Sigh, what kind of people have I met this time? Alyona and Hong Mei, too, they are quite special. And my Elena had hidden Wind affinity… Or is it half-part because of me?’
“When you’re done, bring me to my meditation room. I will be conducting experiments, so just continue cultivating here. I’ll come back as soon as I’m done.” Heian Ciemnosc said as he closed his eyes to relax. Ishikyy suddenly felt estranged and looked at him. She had nearly never seen his eyelids. Now that he closed them before her, she felt attracted. With her hands still working his wounds, her head slowly descended to his eyes, and one by one, he began wetting them with her lips as she licked them, leaving them luscious before kissing them again.
Fortunately, she did well her job to cover Heian Ciemnosc’s wounds with unguent, or Heian Ciemnosc would’ve spank her in the middle of her horrible actions against his eyes. A few minutes later, Ishikyy focused on his wounds alone while her face blushed like there is no tomorrow. She diligently worked until half an hour later, when all his torso was covered in his unguent. She then brought his bed out and helped him into the meditation before returning to the cultivation room to continue her solidifying process.
Only one thought remained in her head and heart. ‘When can I be like him and not need so much time to solidify my cultivation base? I can barely accomplish the same by stabilizing it… Sigh! Maybe it’s true what they say, and copulating with him would help me achieve that state? Hmm…’
On the other hand, Heian Ciemnosc also had a thought, though much different than Ishikyy. On his right palm, 2 drops of blood essence met each other, one blue, another dark. They didn’t even move, and the blue one seemed to take a passive stance as his dark blood essence didn’t even fluctuate. They had less activity than with the Azure Dragon’s Bloodline. ‘It does indeed have a thin trace of the… Azure Dragon’s lineage? It’s similar to the Azure Dragon’s Bloodline, but not even 0.0001% of what the Blauws have. How come…? So curious… If only I could find more such Bloodline of other kinds…’
Keeping his long-term planned studies aside, Heian Ciemnosc sat cross-legged and rapidly did a check of his cultivation path before taking an hour to meditate. He had missed the feeling. Afterwards, he joined Ishikyy, who took the liberty to stay on his bed and sat cross-legged with his back against hers. Their cultivation resumed, but he would have to stop to manage certain affairs of the Blauw Empire’s ruling status over the Far East Region!
