A Flower

"She is..." Heian Ciemnosc stared at the thing with slightly trembling eyes. The little baby was barely half Hong Mei's forearm, covered in a green mantle similar to leaves. She looked back at Heian Ciemnosc, seemingly aware of him, not having any trouble seeing despite her 'fresh' state as a living being higher than flora. Hong Mei smiled, responding, "The Sunflour, mhm. Look at her little back~."

Heian Ciemnosc stared at the little baby’s body. She was resting with a flower on her back. It was the same as the Sunflour and was seemingly a comfy pillow for this little thing. Heian Ciemnosc’s right-handed fingers met with the thing’s aerial territory, breaching it and forcing her tiniest hands to grab his index finger like an enemy was daring her to fight.

Heian Ciemnosc noticed and looked down, only to see the gums become semi-hardened, feeling like teeth and biting at his finger’s yolk. She even had strength and pulled Heian Ciemnosc’s pale skin a couple nanometers before it slid away from her teeth. However, before Heian Ciemnosc could continue studying her, she stopped and went back to rest in Hong Mei’s arms.

“Yiyi- yaamg~...” The little baby blinked its eyes intermittently, resting on her spot as Hong Mei’s smile exposed her emotions. Heian Ciemnosc looked at his wife and suddenly felt half his troubles disappearing. Heian Ciemnosc swiftly tried handling her with his hands, which Hong Mei readily let him have.

The little baby became embraced by Heian Ciemnosc’s hands. She was so small that Heian Ciemnosc’s hands were enough to pick her up entirely, where only her legs rested on his wrist. Before the baby could demand justice from being taken away from comfort, her eyelids slowly fell heavily.

“Yipiii, yaah…” The baby yawned and exclaimed again before rolling her legs up and lowering her arms. The green mantle rolled around her stomach’s sides, covering it and her navel. Heian Ciemnosc’s right index fingertip hovered above her nose. He wanted to caress it but suddenly thought about accidentally harming her or disrupting something from her growth.

“Well, well, well,” Hong Mei’s sweet voice mocked. “But if it isn’t my all-knowing, knowledge-hungry husband not knowing anything about parenthood? Myy~, there’s finally something you’re a dofus in!”

“Shh,” Heian Ciemnosc utilized this delicate moment to shush his wife. But all Hong Mei did in return was sweetly smile and lean over his shoulder to look at their baby. Heian Ciemnosc looked at the thing one last time before sending his dark Neutral Energy to caress her face with utmost delicateness.

“She has the scent of my and your blood essence. How?” Heian Ciemnosc asked Hong Mei. The latter smiled thinly from ear to ear before placing her slender, long hands and fingers on his left shoulder and right arm and kissing his trapezius muscle. “Well, I decided to use those you provided me last time. The core can wait. It even wanted me to bathe this little thing with it to help it condense its new nature.”

“...” Heian Ciemnosc looked at the gigantic tree at the side, the center of everything in this Carrier, and thought. ‘Thank you.’

Rustle~~~... The leaves of everything in the garden fluttered slightly while the core tree’s branches swayed softly, not stopping and creating a pleasant wind to relax. Heian Ciemnosc returned his darkest eyes to the little baby as Hong Mei never took hers from her and asked with a slight frown, surprised. “Did Milyy name her?”

“Yes… Anastasia. Cute, isn’t it?” Hong Mei nodded, massaging his right shoulder with her chin. Heian Ciemnosc’s pitchest-blackest eyebrows jumped, and he looked at the little baby with a different light. ‘Anastasia… Born from pure evolution, aided by blood essence… Now you’re our child, you know that? Hm… Thank you. Without you, I don’t think I could’ve found a way to see those faces.’

Heian Ciemnosc looked at Hong Mei and suddenly felt as if he could already discern his other wives’ expressions as they cared for their little family’s child. First child, child of everyone… It couldn’t have come at a better moment.

Pfwuop!! “May I?” Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind. Hong Mei was initially startled and looked back, slightly terrified that someone sneaked in. However, after looking at the person, she calmed down, albeit sweating and wearing a polite smile. Heian Ciemnosc turned around with Anastasia sleeping in his hands and presented her to the person who had just teleported behind them.

Rustle, rustle. Calisneia looked down at the tiny baby before falling silent. She seemed expert at handling babies, and when she accommodated the leaves around Anastasia, the latter hiccuped and smiled in comfort. Heian Ciemnosc and Hong Mei tilted their heads to the right.

Meanwhile, Calisneia smiled to herself as if finding out she hadn’t lost her touch and was proud of her capabilities. She then looked at her man and co-wife, for as strange as the latter seemed to her, she ignored the notion and said. Her smile was gone. “I’ll take care of Anastasia the longest possible. Any of you can watch me and learn. I’ll… remain in this place for the time being.”

Calisneia suddenly looked up. Hong Mei looked helpless, but she also didn’t really mind having Her Excellency in the Carrier’s core. That only meant the Carrier would be safer and untouchable. Even better, Milyy would feel more joyous whenever she came to attend her lessons under Hong Mei with Anastasia and her mother present here.

“I’ll build Anastasia her nest atop the tree,” Calisneia suddenly said, bathing Hong Mei with confusion. ‘Heh? Not even I can go that far… How does Her Exce- ah!’

Pfwuop!!

Before Hong Mei could say anything or complete her thoughts, Calisneia directly disappeared from her eyes after black smoke whooshed before her. Calisneia teleported away, leaving Hong Mei and Heian Ciemnosc below, with Anastasia none the wiser as she gained another nice mother who would take care of her no matter what.

“Will it be fine?” Hong Mei asked, looking up with clasped hands. Heian Ciemnosc crossed his arms, sad the little shit was taken away from his claws, albeit temporarily, and said. “Mhm. Calisneia will make Milyy learn, even if she doesn’t want to or is too embarrassed.

“Aah~,” Hong Mei nodded repeatedly. Finally realizing why Milyy could only hold Anastasia only for 2 seconds before becoming too nervous and altered despite liking Anastasia so much that she practically forced Hong Mei to let her name the little baby. That time, Hong Mei even felt Milyy would unfold her claws and start scratching the air out of her burst of emotions.

. . .

A couple hours later, that same day, Heian Ciemnosc returned to the headquarters. His return brought many callings and cheers from his fellow soldier units. The auxiliary units no longer wanted to mock him whenever the former verbally bullied Heian Ciemnosc and now looked at him with worship in their eyes before returning to their chores.

Although the soldier units weren’t feeling the same as the auxiliary units, they saw Heian Ciemnosc as a good role model to look up to. Heian Ciemnosc walked through his fellow comrades and joined his Eternal Return Team’s base. However, when he opened the door, he was left slightly speechless…

“Mff, mlwaah, mmnn♡~!” - “Mnlwaaah, squelch! Uhohohoh, mmnn~...”

“...” Heian Ciemnosc watched as Ruo Wei and Cara were totally bare, the former atop the latter, and their fingers eating by each other’s vulvas as their mouth was stuck together and their bodies rubbed left and right and up and down to their hearts’ content and their bodies’ delight. Strangely, Ruo Wei was the one making the most delicate, sweet moans and sexual activity noises, while Cara was more aggressive but still sounded effeminate and girly.

… thud…

“Mplah!...” - “...” Ruo Wei broke the kiss as she and Cara heard the door shut. Heian Ciemnosc didn’t want anyone to possibly discover this… He felt like he should be the only one to know. Cara also noticed, but her hands and mouth were still in sex mode, suckling a teat and fingering Ruo Wei slowly while wide-eyed, staring straight into Heian Ciemnosc’s darkest eyes.

“Don’t you both have a bedroom?” Heian Ciemnosc said, walking over and further widening their eyes. Cara felt their team Leader was about to abuse them, drawing them into a life where they could only beg to writhe under his body. On the other hand, Ruo Wei sank her right eyebrow and lifted the left one. Her bum felt itchy… and that wasn’t good.

Slap!! “Kyaaaaagh!... !!” Ruo Wei’s bum was spanked by Heian Ciemnosc’s pale left hand. He left his hand there for an extra second, which spread the notion to the rest of her meaty butt cheeks. When Heian Ciemnosc parted his hand from the delicious booty, Ruo Wei looked up at him, rubbing the redness of her skin and asking with tears threatening to come out in her lacrimals. Her squealing yelp made her somewhat numb to the pain… it was too embarrassing!

“Did you improve your bodily strength? How?! You were already so strong, aaah!” Ruo Wei felt pained, and only then did Cara have enough consideration to stop fingering the tortured soul. However, she did not take those fingers out. Heian Ciemnosc grinned at Ruo Wei but then turned to Cara and glared at her.

“Eep!” Cara suddenly felt in danger, and before she noticed, Ruo Wei gave her up, spinning their bodies so Cara was on top and Ruo Wei held her waist strong. The pretty image of their vulvas up and down against each other challenged Heian Ciemnosc, but he resisted, and as it was supposed to be, he spanked Cara’s ass to the point her face reddened and her body trembled.

Slap!!

“Ah! Wait, Cara!” Ruo Wei suddenly said. Her brain told her to stop holding Cara’s waist so strong, but her body and heart didn’t want to! Their most intimate nub shuddered against each other, and before long, after Heian Ciemnosc’s mighty one-slap technique, they started moaning lightly and kittenly while Heian Ciemnosc walked to his bedroom.

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

“Mmf- aanngh~! Welcome back… Team- aah! Leader~! Gyaaaah~~!”

Creak. “Well, well… hello, darling.” Milyy welcomed Heian Ciemnosc without wasting any time. Her body wore a 1-piece of lingerie that threw Heian Ciemnosc’s blood directly into his second brain. The bulge in his pants made Milyy salivate as she massaged her genitals, a new sight to Heian Ciemnosc. She was becoming more filthy the more wives he spent time with her! Although Milyy was definitely not willing to engage with her co-wives, she always watched…

Her nonexistent tatas were hardened, and her body’s arch invited pleasure, begged for roughness, and implored to not be let go of. Heian Ciemnosc softly placed her back against the bed, only opening the hole to free her pleasure-bringer and whispering to her face as she bit and licked the skin of his face as if it was the tastiest to ever exist.

“Anastasia is her name… If you like her that much, take care of her.” Heian Ciemnosc’s words slowed her actions but did not stop them. She looked at Heian Ciemnosc with what seemed to be… a shy expression! Under his adorable to die for darkest eyes, Milyy could only do one thing. Nod.

After she nodded, the genitals Heian Ciemnosc hadn’t even given more than an eyeful was penetrated, and her torso heaved up and down with sudden, heavy breaths setting the mood for them both.

. . .

35th year, 3rd month, 1st week, 2nd day. It had now been 3 years since Heian Ciemnosc joined the Crimsonbreaking Faction.

During the last couple of months, besides the first 2 weeks spent with the Disciplinary Elders, Heian Ciemnosc knew thanks to Alyona’s wishes when they first met, Heian Ciemnosc started going to lessons in the same spot as Third Step cultivators, where Soldiers and Officers went. Ruo Wei and Loma were part of the same group. But, after just a little bit of time and pushing through it, other Team members broke into the Third Step. Beto would’ve been hella proud.

After all, the things they experienced in just one trip were enough to create several peak First Step organizations and last for 10 generations of the same. That was individually. If the whole Team reunited their gains, they would give birth to a Second Step organization at the middle level.

One might think this could be the reason for desertion, but besides having fewer kills in any operations or mission than 99.9% of any other organization in the world, the Crimsonbreaking Faction was also one of the few Factions to not have any deserter since their founding.

It didn’t define an organization’s might, as there are many situations that cause such problematic results. An organization like an Existential Sixth Step organization might suffer from desertion every few years… or year. More than anything, a statistic such as no desertion in an organization’s entire history had to do with the management and discipline their members were educated in.

Heian Ciemnosc valued more to have such statistics due to the management and discipline one influences their people rather than just being strong and stronger. Thus, he continued attending more and more lessons, learning the methods the Crimsonbreaking Faction’s main force studied, practiced, and comprehended.

From more close-quarters combat to energy and Elements, Heian Ciemnosc experienced many more things than he expected. While the learning session wasn’t as intrusive to one’s intrigue and desire for knowledge as Heian Ciemnosc experienced in the Wrath Nihility Academy, it was helpful and detailed enough. Besides, it wasn’t just to learn. As a co-leading Team Leader, it was his job to know these things.

Time passed, and like this, a month and a week went by, with Heian Ciemnosc following a routine. Once Heian Ciemnosc learned all he had to learn in space and battling in groups other than in open space, spaceships’ interiors, and ultra-intense melee combat. Heian Ciemnosc was fully approved as a co-leading Team Leader by the Faction. That was before he embarked on the mission that nearly took his life away.

He was also recognized, however, as an exemplary person in a leading position to follow. The rest of the incomplete Fleet might not be used to him or know his methods. But the Defensive Frigate that the Eternal Return Team that did know about Heian Ciemnosc started valuing him even better.

He wasn’t just a Soldier with a higher position than he should have. Heian Ciemnosc became an example of every one of the dreams, but whose dreams crashed, and only by seeing their co-lead could they understand how far they were from them. Not only the role but its nature as well.

Nevertheless, after the 3 months of intense training ended, and like the Defensive Frigate was co-lead of, many spaceships gained permission to go out and take hunting missions against the remnants of the enemy’s focus, but not everyone took that chance. Especially the co-leading team leaders. Instead, they were seen taking trips to the Soldier and Officers’ lessons more and more.

And now that more time passed, the results were being rumored, as the Crimsonbreaking Faction’s reforms weren’t just about how its forces fought, but everything in detail. They had prepared for long enough and could accomplish the task rapidly despite their overly advantageous numbers compared to most other organizations, even from Sects and generational organizations.

… On this day, inside the Carrier, as the base had been on the move for several weeks already, and all members had returned to the base. While things were becoming more exciting, and rumors spread throughout the Crimsonbreaking Faction, making even civilians thrilled and citizens like they had a chance of once in a lifetime. Their leader and rumored lover were in the former’s bed within the bedsheets.

Heian Ciemnosc and Alyona faced each other with some distance between each other. It was only the two of them, but they were clothed, although they were sleeping like logs. Suddenly, between their bodies, also under the sheets, a bulge ‘stood up’ and moved towards the pillows. It seemed to move slowly and cutely.

“Babaah!” A baby’s head peeked from the top of the sheets, looking around as she rotated her body before resuming her crawling to sit on the pillows. Although her size was Milyy’s head, Anastasia could move and had enough strength and intelligence to dress herself in her cute baby clothing.

She raised her tiny arms after ‘roaring’ to her empty belly’s discontent. But the foolish adults around her didn’t wake up and spoil her as she hoped. The tiny baby was about to show how crushed her heart was when both evil adults grinned and immediately opened their eyes, for they had been wide awake since she started crawling.

“Yiaaap!” Anastasia became content, enjoying the bath of care and warmth as Heian Ciemnosc and Alyona’s hands grabbed her and nestled her tiny body in between. Anastasia looked at one of her mothers before looking at her father and continued making stupid ass cutest of noises before pulling Alyona’s top down and exposing the source of paradise.

Anastasia dumbly went over to suckle on Alyona’s teat, expecting food like in others. However, nothing came out of it, and as Alyona smiled like an idiot and felt embarrassed, she called someone via Soul message. Afterwards, she picked up their baby and sat her in her arms before lecturing their baby.

“No, Anastasia. Mommies don’t have milk. We can’t unless we have at least been pregnant once. And as you can see, your faulty Papa doesn’t have that. Now, now. I’m bringing a little auntie to feed you, don’t cry, alright? Who is a beautiful baby? Mm? Mm?” Alyona placated the terrifying monster of the thousand auditive tones of hell. Heian Ciemnosc watched them as Anastasia held her tears and Alyone her laughter.

It was a beautiful sight, especially because Alyona was just so comfortable keeping her ginormous breast exposed, not bothering to hide it after Anastasia erroneously wished for yummy growth liquid.

Alyona was successful as she made Anastasia give out little giggles. Then, before a knock could even be heard on the wall beside the entrance to Alyona’s place, she kept her breast in her ordinary but anti-Spirit Sense shirt and waited for the ‘maid’ to show her presence.

Knock, knock.

“Come in.” Alyona’s voice was calm and indifferent, somewhat aloof. But it was loud, and the maid outside heard it before immediately entering. She politely shouted before walking to Alyona’s bedroom, “I have come, Chairwoman. I am ready~!”

Slide. The bedroom’s entrance slid open, revealing a young woman with a Soldier uniform. She wasn’t the walking milk tanks Anastasia was used to, so the little baby ignored her expectant maid and kept crackling in innocent laughter with mother Alyona. Alyona slowly erased the lovely, motherly smile and eyes from her face and looked at the Soldier.

“Come here, then. My daughter’s all yours,” Alyona said, and the Soldier nodded before awkwardly climbing on top of the bed, doing her best to ignore Heian Ciemnosc’s presence. Once the Soldier sat cross-legged between Alyona and Heian Ciemnosc, Alyona passed Anastasia to her, and she freed her chest. Alyona commented as she moved to the other side, and Anastasia’s eyes glowed when she saw milk-smelling teats!

Chup, chup, chup…

“!” Alyona cuddled with Heian Ciemnosc, becoming soft and vulnerable with her backside against Heian Ciemnosc’s front, moving his hands to embrace her, even cupping half her right breast. The Soldier was astounded when she saw this, especially the 2 brief but passionate, intrusive pecking kisses they exchanged before cuddling. Meanwhile, Anastasia started filling her tiny tummy like crazy.

In the end, Alyona rested her head on the pillow, using Heian Ciemnosc’s pale left hand as an extra comfort layer, constantly kissing it and rubbing her face against it. After several minutes, with her chest out in the open, the Soldier couldn’t help but speak. “Ma’am Chairwoman… so, the rumors were true? You and young black monster… have always been together?”

“Don’t ask. It’s not necessary. As for the Crimsonbreaking Faction’s modus operandi, nothing will change— for the moment.” Alyona said, glancing at the Soldier from a lower level. The Soldier felt it was wrong, but she did not dare accidentally stop the cute shit drinking her breasts dry.

“Get comfortable. I want Anastasia to have the best mil possible. Come on,” Alyona assertively said, half-ordering the Soldier. The ‘maid’ nodded and rested her lower back against her Chairwoman's bed pillows, suddenly feeling more comfortable feeding Anastasia.

“Chairwoman…” Then, the Soldier couldn’t help but ask as she remembered something. Alyona looked at her and expressed a ‘hm?’ before remaining quiet. The Soldier said, “Do you also expect… my services?”

She said while looking at the lower bodies of them both. Alyona knowingly blinked before flatly saying, “There’s no need. All the maids we’ve accepted are females my man here never touched. Besides, he doesn’t go around looking for prey. Is there a rumor going on again?”

“Ah! No, Chairwoman. I was just curious… Thank you,” the Soldier hurriedly responded. Heian Ciemnosc profusely blinked. ‘Was I nearly framed?’

“Hmm~.” Alyona nodded and watched the Soldier get more comfy to let Anastasia drink her milk. She softly turned around and hugged Heian Ciemnosc’s head with her arms, entwining them on his back before showering his chin, cheeks, corners of his mouth, philtrum, tip of his nose, and directly pecking him.

“...” The Soldier looked at the couple go for a minute before Alyona lowered her head, burying it in Heian Ciemnosc’s neck and amply fell asleep. Meanwhile, Heian Ciemnosc tilted his head towards the pillows, becoming pensive. ‘What would it feel like when I finally regenerate my fertility, and Alyona can lactate?’

Heian Ciemnosc’s darkest eyes, for whatever reason, couldn’t forget the sight of Alyona’s breast after she failed to lactate. Cultivators could do so, but it wouldn’t be ‘helpful’ other than being liquid. What Anastasia needed wasn’t just liquid but nutritious milk. And unless a cultivator got pregnant at least once, that wouldn’t happen.

On the other hand, Heian Ciemnosc’s blood essence, along Hong Mei’s, was part of the aid Anastasia received to condense her new nature. It didn’t matter if the maid to feed Anastasia was enhanced by Heian Ciemnosc’s dual cultivation method or sperm going into their bodies. Anastasia had all the enhancement Heian Ciemnosc could provide to someone else without any need for them because forming a new nature with his dark blood essence was like defining her innate, possible talents.

When it was confirmed Anastasia had somehow been enhanced by it, Heian Ciemnosc and Anastasia’s mothers were gladdened. But only Heian Ciemnosc knew how impactful such a result meant. Only time would tell what else Anastasia gained from him.

And while it seemed Anastasia was only related to Heian Ciemnosc and Hong Mei thanks to their blood essence, Hong Mei’s nature grandmastership allowed her to incorporate the bond she and Heian Ciemnosc have, by nature. Thus, it was as if Anastasia not only knew other parties connected to Heian Ciemnosc and Hong Mei and his current wives… but also those from the future.

This was, of course, orchestrated by Hong Mei and Alyona, who thought big. Mainly from Alyona, though.

…
