Jayr POV - Tortus, Frost Caverns of See - 2013

  After reuniting with Tio, we both walk through the newly open passage, that will most probably lead us to Eri's location and as we advance, I 't help but throw a few g Tio from time to time.

  Tio, who notices this, looks at me and asks, "Is there something wrong, Master?" to which I shake my head and reply, "No, nothing... It is just that you were so enting a few moments ago, that I'm still a little dazed. To tell you the truth, if we weren't in a Labyrinth, I would have taken you on the spot and wouldn't let you go until you reach your limit and pass out... My dragon princess."

  Hearing my aio smiles and says, "Master, this one guarahou that nothing would make this one happier than being used by Master... Well, that and giving birth to your hatg..."

  I stumble a little in surprise, then I say, "I think it is too soon to think of that now... After all, we still have to deal with Ehit and then I also have to meet yrandfather to gain his blessing..." but then Tio says, "It could be too soon for thou but fonman like this one, once we are 100 years old we reproduce, and this one is already 563 years old, this one desire to reproduce grows stronger and stronger each passing day, especially since Master is so incredible..."

  As we tialking, we finally reach the end of this passage, and on front of the door, I get ready to act as soon as I notice that Eri is having some problems, then without hesitation but with a little tension, I open the door.

  But once open, oher side, there isn't any sound of battle, no deadly miasma, no csh of Undead Puppets, or flying nasty curses and spells that one would expect from a fight between two Neancer, no what I see oher side, is two almost identical Eris' talking and ughing as they y with their backs on the tral pilr like a pair of old friends.

  One of the Eri, the one I feel is the mirror image, says, [You know, I still think that you went too easy on those wenches in Erisen that tried to get close to Jayr. You simply used Noriko to scare and curse them a little, you could have easily made them disappear by allowing Noriko to eat their souls and dispose of the corpses in your Shadow Dimension... But I have to admit that the curse that they 't trol their bowels every time someohey are attracted to talks to them is quite a nie, even if a little too harmless.]

  To which Eri replies, "Thanks, that is the most harmless curse that came to my mind at that moment. You know how Jayr is, he would feel bad if he khat we harmed some i people, and as he is the best thing that happeo us sihe death of dad, the best way to deal with those annoyances is just sg them a little ahem away from him, in fact, those curses will cease once we are away enough from them...".

  Hearing that, Mirror Eri nods and says, [That is true, Jayr doesn't reject us for who we are, that is why the least we do is to el our worst urges so that they be used food... And in case someone wants to take advantage of his kindness...], and at this point they both say at the same time, ["...Not eveh will spare him or her from our fury!"]

  Seeing this se I 't help but be a little impressed by it, 'I always try to face my dark side and accept it as a part of me, oher hand, Tio's mind and trol over her emotions are s that she use this trial to sharpen her heart and will, but Eri... Eri basically embraces her darkest side and desires, it is the side of herself she is most familiar with.' it seems that Tio o me thinks the same too as she mutters, "Impressive...".

  After that, they both notice our presend say, ["Jayr, you are finally here!"] then they look at Tio and clig their to the same time they say, ["Tsk, Eron is here too..."], then Mirror Eri says, [Looks like it is time for you to plete your trial too...] and she offers her hands to Eri, who without hesitation holds it, and the moment, Mirror Eri shatters into many small lights that rush into Eri's body and merge with her, and at the same time, I quickly sehat her magic power doubling.

  Before I could ask, Eri takes out her Status Pte and after cheg it, she says, "Yes! All my stats doubled!! From now on this is my sed favorite Labyrinth!!"

  At the same time, Tio says, "So this is what happens when one fully embraces her dark side without reserves..."

  Then, worried I ask, "Are you okay?" to which she nods and says, "Yes there is no problem, in fact, I have never felt better."

  Even if she said that just to be sure I quickly bring Eri into my Soulbouory to check if she is under any influence or if this sudden power-up brought any harm, but luckily nothing is wrong with her, making me realize that for sure this is a rerepared by the Liberators for those that are able to embrace their darkest desires without losing themselves.

  After that, we once agaier the newly opened passage, and start walking toward what I hope is the end of this Labyrinth, all of the sudden, Tio asks, "Eri, thou said that this became your sed favorite Labyrinth. This on is curious to know what is your most favorite one..." to which, Eri replies as she holds my arm, "Of course it is the Orcus Labyrinth! The pce where I met Jayr, fell in love with him, and where we shared our first kiss..."

  But I stop her and say, "Wait, teically what I did R, a lifesaving teique, I don't think it be sidered a first kiss..." but Eri fixes her gsses and decres, "If a woman siders that a first kiss, it means that it is a first kiss!"

  I decide to drop the topid focus on what is ahead of us, and after a few minutes, we finally arrive at the end of the road and find ourselves in front of an ice wall.

  On the ice wall in front of us, there is a magic circle carved there in the shape of a heptagon where its tops are arranged with the crest of each great byrinth.

  Once we are close enough, it begins to shine faintly, and then the whole wall is covered with something like a membrane of light, curious, I touch it slightly with my fiips, and a ripple spreads as though a stone was thrown into a water surface, then I say, "Aelepate... They really like this kind of thing..." then I look back at Tio and Eri and nod, and soon after they do the same in response.

  And then we leap into the light membrane all at ohout hesitation.

  Oher side, the first thing I do I to check for Eri and Tio, ahat they both are still o me, it seems that Eri did it too as she mutters, "… It seems this time we aren't separated." meanwhile, Tio, who is cheg our surrounding says, "Hmm, it appears that we hath finally arrived."

  Hearing that, I also start to look around ahat we are in a rge area, a beautiful quadrangle area that is supported by several thick ice pilrs made from ice just as expected, but it isn't ice with a high refle rate that could be mistaken as a mirror, like all the ice walls until now, but an ice wall that is made from beautiful pure ice that is really transparent.

  But what attracts my attention the most is the ground, it is overflowing with water something that we had never seen at all since we came here, indig that the temperature of this area isn't that low.

  It seems that a lot of spring water is flowing in, small fountains are put here and there on the spacious ke surface, and most likely there is also the hole where the water is flowing out.

  And then on such a ke surface there is the floating floor in the shape of a stepping stohat is made from ice, and oher side, ahead of that floor, there is a huge ice sanctuary.

  It is just right on the opposite side where we came out from, the foothold of floating ice tinues until there on the quadrangle ke surface.

  Looking at this spectacle, Eri mutters ented in a tone full of wonder, "This is beautiful..."

  Hearing that I agree then I say, "Yes, for sure this is one of the best-looking Abodes... Both Haltina and See have great artistic taste... while Orcus feels more like a peaceful home, and Melusine is more like a trap than a pce to rest and recover, while Gruen and Bran were simple and practical, and the less we talk about Miledi's toilet the better..."

  After that, I lead the girls using the ice foothold to advaoward the sanctuary and easily cross to the opposite shore without any kind of problem.

  Then Tio says, "Master, over ther!" pointing at a magiation drawn at a deep pool but I notice that is very simir to the other ones we used to get out of the other Labyrinth, and say, "This is the magiation that will teleport us out of this Labyrinth, I think..." but to be sure we step inside of it, but nothing happens, so we tio move toward the sanctuary.

  Once close enough, I finally see the details of this structure, the entrance of the sanctuary is a rge double door, there a crest that resembles snow crystal is drawn.

  It is the crest of the liberator Vandre See, and there is no sign of something like a seal or anything like that, so I simply put my hand on it and push, and it opens without resistance.

  The inside of the sanctuary is nothing like I expected, there is nothing at all like stained gss or altar like in church, in exge, there is arance of the mansion with a delier made from ice hanging above, a corridor that tinues inside and a stair that leads to the sed floor from two sides.

  And I'm not the only one surprised by this difference, as Tio ents, "Even though the appearance is a sanctuary, the inside is like a house..." and Eri nods and adds, "...Un. It's like Oscar's hideout"

  Meanwhile, I pull out the pass and say, "I don't know you girls, but I don't want to search the whole mansion/sanctuary to find the magiation...", then I use it to find the magiation's location.

  Acc to the pass, it seems that it is at the inner part of the straight passage on the first floor, so we advao the inside following the pass' lead.

  On the way, there we see several rooms, and curious Eri tries to open one random door, something that she is easily able to do, but ihere is just normal furniture put there.

  At the same time, Tio checked the ice wall too, and ents, "At the touch they feel only cool and not cold, indig that there is some kind of prote against the cold on it..."

  Like that, we advance while admiring the inside of the mansion, and finally, we find a thick door, and I looking at the pass I say, "It's here" and then I open the door without hesitation.

  Ihere is ihe magiation that is our aim, then magiation that will teach us the st Age of God Magic, seeing that, we don't lose any more time and quickly jump into the magiation, that instantily starts to shine.

  Just like usual, the inside of our brain is scrutio check if we successfully quered the Labyrinth, and then the Age of Gods Magic is engraved in our minds immediately.

  But then something happens, "Urgh!" I let out a grunt of pain as I feel a new source of informations suddendly appear in my mind, no, it is more precise to say, that now that I have gathered all the Age of Gods Magics, I'm forced to uand a deeper and more primal level of magid this new knowledge is so vast and profund that it overwhelmed my mind for an instant because it was too sudden, but luckily, I'm able to steady myself in time and regain my bearings.

  But the same 't be said for Eri, "…UuUUUUH!!" as she falls on her knees holding her head in pain as she screams in anguish, at the same time, I hear a worried and surprised Tio yell, "Master!? Eri!?" I shake my head then I say, "I'm okay..."

  Then I move o Eri and start to use Restoration Magic, to heal any damage that her mind could incur uhe pressure of this new knowledge.

  The effect is instantaneous, as Eri, that was sweating a lot, seems to be released from the pain, therength leaves her body and she slumps down, fainting, of course seeing that, I quickly support her, and pick her up taking her in a princess carry.

  Then I look at Tio, who has already calmed down and say, "She is fine... She just got overwhelmed by the new uanding of magic that we recieved..." Tio quickly ects the dots and says in wonder, "...The cept Magic..." to which I nod, then she asks, "Then thou use it now?"

  I think about it for a few seds, then shake my head and say, "Not yet... I o digest this new knowledge for a bit. For now, let's go home a..."

  And after saying that, I open a portal to my Soulbouory and walkthrough it followed by Tio.

  Ohere, Tio goes to her room to rest, while I put Eri on the bed in my room after making sure that everything is fih her, of course after ing her body, then I decide to take a shower, and while rexing, I think about what I just learned, 'cept Magic, huh... It is basically a bination of all the Age of Gods Magics, it is used by raising up a powerful wish or desire with Spirit Magid Evolution Magic, then that desire or wish be raised to a level of a cept before being forcefully materialized with magical power using the e of Gods Magics... It is both simple and plex at the same time, the wish or desire behind it must be very powerful almost to the level of ing directily from your heart or soul...'

  Thinking that I frown a little and while washing my hair, I tinue refleg on it, '...And while geing a wish or desire strong enough is difficult it isn't impossible, and it is also different from the Power of Miracles of my Universe, that is something you ce upon instead of seeking it... No that isn't the most w thing... What worries me the most is the cost, the more powerful the cept the more demanding it is when es to mana ption... Hell, from what I have read from the spoilers Hajime pulled a cept Magi his own and died as all his mana was drained in an instant...'

  I turn off the water faucet, and mutter, "Oh well if everything goes acc to the pn, I don't have to worry. And in case it doesn't, I already prepared a backup pn..." then I get out and fre my o to dry my body, and after dressing, I start to move in the dire of Tio's room.

  On front of the door of Tio's room, I kno it and wait outside, I don't have to wait for long as Tio opens the door and asks, "How this one be of service, Master?" I smile and say, "Well I remember that someone needs some punishment, and as responsible Master, I came to fulfill my duty", which brings a smile on Tio's face, then with a grin I and, "Follow me!", and lead a now fused Tio outside my vil, in a deserted zone of my Soulbouory that we usually use as a training area as it is quite away from the vil and the orchard.

  Ohere, I hear Tio mutter with a heavy breath, "Could it be that Master wants to do "that" or "this" to me...?" then I turn around and ask, "Tio, what do you know about the retily learned Metamorphosis Magic?"

  Still, a little lost in her fantasies, Tio answers, "Metamorphosis Magic allows the user to remake the form of a normal being and reform them into a different form. Its used to remake a normal anism and turn it into a monster, or even manipute the magic stone of a monster and remake them..."

  I nod and say, "Mostily right... But the true power of this magic is the ability to interfere with any anic material. Meaning not only animals, it's also possible to remake pnts or intelligent beings, and reform their structure as needed... In fact, I think that your race Draification be traced back to this Age of Gods Magic..."

  Tio who is now once again fog ohinks deeply and says, "Hoho, so the Metamorphosis Magic is the in of my race… But why are thou tellihis, Master?"

  And with a smirk, I say, "You see, it seems that I'm pretty patible with this kind of magic, so I thought of a good way to punish you that you would like for sure..."

  Then I y eyes and remember all the details of Tio's Dragon Form, at the same time, I hold nothing bad turn on my ana state, then I think of the exa I want while remembering the image in a certain card game and once I'm sure I'm ready, I open my eyes and look at Tio who is looking at me with wonder in her eyes and t, "Metamorphosis Magic, Advent of the Divine Dragon Lord!"

  And as my body is enveloped by a golden co, I enjoy the shocked look on Tio's face.

  Tio POV - Jayr's Soulbouory - 2013

  Stunned, I stand rooted on the spot, looking in shock as Master's body is enveloped in a familiar golden co of magic power, a his body ihe co starts growing bigger and bigger until the co disperses, and I finally see Master's new form.

  9 meters tall, bright golden scales, majestid manly features like the wide wing span, the sharp edges ing out from the knees and elbows, or that sharply pointed jaw, that silver underbelly, the long deadly tail, those crimsohat seem to look into my soul, no matter how I look at it, this is the most handsome dragon I have ever seen in my life.

  (Image Here - Jayr Dragon Form)

  Spoiler

  [colpse]After spreading his wing, the divine dragos out a loud roar, then it looks down at me and says, "I think that thly make you my sve, I have to dominate you in your stro form... What do you say, my dragon princess?"

  And realizing that this almost divine dragon in front of me is in fact master and the meaning behind his words, I let out a bright smile as small trail of tears falls from my eyes, while at the same time, I feel my lower body being hotter aer by the sed.

  Then I lower my head and say, "This one is truly grateful that Master thinks so much for this lowly sve..."

  At the same time, I activate the i magiy race, Draification, and tranform into my Dragon Form, then looking up at Master that is still bigger than me even in this state, I let out a throaty ugh and say, "Hoho, don't expect that this one will let you win easily. If thou are vying to domihis one as a true dragon... Then this one will fight and push you back with all her force!!"

  Then I don't wait for his response and rush toward him aiming to rip off a ck of his neck with a bite, hoping to take advantage of the fact that he shouldn't be used to fight with that body yet.

  But before I could reach his neck, I feel his tail around my neck, then my vision whirls around, and I crash on the ground with my back, then I feel his y chest.

  Still a little dizzy, I look up and see his dragonic face close to my, then I ear his sweet voice as he says, "Sihe day I decided to face my feelings for you and you accepted me as your lover and Master. I always wao do something special for you, then I remember that as Dragonman your Race has really a lot in on with Dragons, so in the end, I thought that if I wao truly make you happy and truly mine, I have to dominate you not only in your human form, but also in your dragon one, and what better form if not that of a dragon to do so!".

  Hearing his thoughts and siderations, I 't help but feel a fuzzy feeling in my chest, then seeing the desire in his eyes, the fears and doubts that I had until now suddenly disappears, 'I see, he truly accepts me, all of me... But, even so, I won't let him win this one so easily! I don't know if he truly knows the meaning behind his current as... But there is no way that my wedding will ends like this!! I'm Tio Krus, princess of the Dragoribe!!! I won't let my husband troughly dominate me on my wedding!!!'

  And with that new resolution, I open my mouth a out my Dragoh, ahe bck fsh impact Master on his chest, and with an explosion, push him off from my body, then I get up, ready to fight once more.

  But, ohe cloud of dust disperses, I'm stuo find out that Master is totally ued, 'Incredible! He took my Dragoh head on, and it didn't do anything to him...'

  Then I realize what is going on, 'Right! Draification raises all our physical stats by 10!! If it works the same way, that means that Master's obsely high stats became even higher!!!'

  Right when I realized that, Master fps his wings and disappears for my vision, and at the same time, I feel a strong impay back that send me crashing onto the ground.

  But I quickly regain my bearing, and prepare to unleash another Dragoh at Master, this time at my full power, but before I could do so, I realize, I lost sight of him once more, 'He is so big, how he also be so fast, moreover, he is able to trol his new form so well, that I 't even feel any disturban his movement... as expected Master is incredible...'

  As soon as I thought that, I feel Master's tail smack my back, more precisely the poiween my wings, a pce that brings me an incredibly pleasant pain.

  And he doesn't stop there, he hits me with his tail again and again, in many different pces, each hit is strong enough to break my scales and make my body quiver in both pain and pleasure, so much that before long, I 't hold baymore and moan, "Ahh~ Master! Hit me harder~!" as soon as I yell that, Master stops hitting me.

  And just as I'm about to raise my head and ask him to tinue, I feel the full weight of his dragonic body on mihen I feel his fangs gentily sink into my ned holding it still, while at the same time, marking me as his, then I feel, him unleash his long dragon tool and start rubbing it between my legs, and without hesitation, I open my defense and allow him inside, and as I feel the big long dragon tool enter ihere is only ohing in my mind, 'I'm forever yours... Husband...'
