Chapter 174 - Waking up fully refreshed
If I knew that doing it with a pure mystique would be this refreshing, I would have found one a long time ago to spend time with. Though I have quite a high recovery rate, I still feel a bit stiff here and there after doing it with any of my three husbands who were humans. I think the fact that I have to constantly restrain my strength and my lust when I'm with them translates into body pains afterwards. Ioannis has already been deified but he is still a demi-mystique at best so the effects on me were reduced but not non-existent. His body has already learned to use mystique mana and has already improved in terms of stamina and other things but his innate essence would still be that of a human. This guy next to me though has such rich essence that the exchange I had with him felt very beneficial for the both of us. Now I am having second thoughts on keeping those four sleeping beauties asleep. Should I wake up one of them soon? Nah. I'll put that on the back burner for now.
As for my new bedmate, he's still sound asleep. I did a lot of things with him in such a short amount of time that I am quite sure that even if he had the stamina and the strength to get through it, I bet he's still very much spent right now. It is only almost 9pm outside so I still have the leisure of time to wait for him to wake up or... maybe not? I carefully got out of bed and went to the bathroom to take a shower. In the middle of my shower, I heard a modulated scream in the bedroom. How cute.The guy who went bonkers due to his heat has finally woken up. Well, I'll just let him be for now. I simply continued my shower when somebody suddenly opened the door of the shower abruptly. I looked at the totally naked guy who was currently staring at me laser-like focus. I raised my eyebrows and greeted him, "Hi, Makisig. Are you going to take a shower too? I'm almost done then it will be your turn." His eyes widened in surprise. He must have not expected how nonchalant I was with everything that we did during the last few hours and me not having any reaction to the fact that he was standing with all his nakedness in front of me. He stood stunned in a daze at the bathroom door till I finished my shower. As for me, once I was done, I walked out of the bathroom while drying myself with a towel. I don't find the need to wrap myself up since he has seen everything anyways. I walked past him and then went back to the bedroom.
After a few minutes, Makisig finally got his senses back and he went out of the bathroom and stood in front of me again. He then asked respectfully, "I would like to introduce myself again. My name is Makisig from the giant race. I just want to clear up any misconceptions that you may have of me. This is the first time I did intimate things with a woman and I am definitely not an easy man that goes with just anybody. I... I will only be yours from now on. I am not using you jusg to get over this heat and I'm sorry if you feel that I forced you or tricked you in any way to doing this with me." I simply stared at his face emotionlessly while he was saying his long introduction. Once he was done talking, I trailed my eyes downwards, surveying his body until my eyes grazed the thing between his legs that is somewhat still erect. Hmm... I am really tempted to touch it. The guy followed my line of sight and realized I was staring at his rod and he hurriedly grab a towel to cover it. I looked up to his face and said, "What are you trying to prove by covering it? I already did everything I can possibly do with it. I pretty much kissed, licked, sucked, touched and fucked it, didn't I?" His face turned beet-red as he responded with a very soft voice, "I know... but still... that's..." I then said, "I also want to clear some misconceptions you might have with this situation. You do not have to be mine. You can go on your way and I'll go with mine. We do not have to settle into a lifelong relationship. Just call me again if you need someone to calm down your heat. I need to go back home for now. See you at the port tomorrow." I then stood up and started dressing up. Makisig's mouth opened and tried to say something but he was pretty much speechless and helpless right now. He then said, "My heat lasts for 3 days. It is only the first night as of today." I replied without looking at him, "Got it. Meet me here again tomorrow afternoon and then the afternoon after that too. I'll help you out."
Our conversation ended at that since he seems to have been lost for words with how I was too cool and emotionless about everything that happened. I wasn't cool about it though. I was just pretending to be calm all along so he doesn't get any ideas of doing an emotional blackmail stunt on me. I was about to go out of the room when the butt-naked guy suddenly hugged my waist from behind. He then whispered to my ear, "You're not thinking of abandoning me after my heat, are you? I am telling you, you will never get rid of me in this life. You don't have to give me a proper title but please don't avoid me." I laughed and said, "Sadly, threats don't work on me. I can technically do whatever I want. Women have that right in this world. If I want to disappear on you, I don't think you will be able to do anything about it anyways. See you at work later. Oh, though you lost in our little game, since you were very obedient, I'll tell you a secret. You ask for my race and my answer would be Eieneos." I then removed his arms easily around my waist though I know he was trying to hold on to me with all his strength. I then walked out of the room and closed the door behind me. I immediately teleported back to my room in the house I'm sharing wih Lark.

Makisig's POV
What did I just hear? Did she just say she was from... Eieneos? If she was from the fallen kingdom... it means... she's the new queen of the two realms?! Did I just seduce the queen and then threaten her that I will stalk her for life? I am doomed. I may have caused my people's impending doom too. Will she still let our race live in the new realm? I must have angered her! I have to apologize! If she really wants to abandon me, I definitely won't be able to do anything about it. She could own this whole world if she wants to. I can only wish that she diverts her anger to the elves and heralds instead of my race.
My father said that every race is looking for the new heir of Eieneos and the owner of the World Tree Realm since she is our hope in making sure our bloodlines will continue to exist. She is also the key on getting our race's chance to have a place in the new World Tree Realm as well. I am quite sure that if she doesn't feel like it, we can only continue living in suffering in this realm with almost non-existent mana. We don't even live on regular mana but the mystique type. No matter how much we struggle, we all know that we are withering away. Every single race is desperate for their survival but who would have thought that she was in here, pretending to be a human laborer in Sklavryet. Do the people of Noir already know her identity and was helping her conceal it? I definitely have to keep this a secret for now. I have a strong feeling that she won't think twice about getting rid of me if I try to meddle in her affairs or attempt to be a tattle tale about this. She told me the truth because she was confident that I won't be able to tell my people about it. It was totally a threat! I feel like crying right now. I am technically between a rock and a hard place.
I couldn't help but remember about the abilities of the Eienean race as per our elders and old documents. The Eieneans are the ruling deity race of Aeocrescens. They have indefinite lifespans, deity-like beauty, immeasurable mana, ability to control all mana attributes and their most sought-after ability out of all of their innate characteristics was their extremely high fertility rates. A child born between any race and an Eienean will definitely be powerful and beautiful. They will also surely inherit the increased fertility rates from he Eienean side. The books say that anyone who has experienced a night with the Eienean queen can never do it with anybody else. That person will be marked as a vessel and therefore, the man's body would exist for the sole use of the queen. The man marked as a vessel can only give birth to the child of the Eienean woman that marked him. I am really doomed. What if she never touches me again because I angered her? What if she doesn't want to have a child with me? What if she suddenly disappears on me? What if I get pregnant and she takes the child away? I found my legs softening at the realization of all the possibilities that are not favorable to me. The shock made my strength leave my body gradually as I slid down the floor. I am scared but I definitely have to meet with her at work and pretend that everything was normal. I also have to meet up with her. It was my idea but now I'm really scared to go! I don't have a choice but to meet her in this room on the next two afternoons from today as per our previous arrangements.
