Akashic Records of the Bastard Child Engaged to a Goddess

Chapter 250 Learning the Tenebrous Slade intentions?

Naked Diplomacy Arc I

---

(POV: Lumiere)

After the intense sex, a sense of tranquility settled over us as we found ourselves in the soothing waters of the hotsprings.

The ladies were calm now, at peace, satisfied.

But for me...

I was suffering severe post-nut clarity.

My dopamine levels were lower than my cock at this point.

With a weariness settling into my body, I sunk into the warmth, eager to indulge in some much-needed relaxation.

Huddled together, Senesica, Dendrossa, and Abaddon joined me.

All naked and intimately close to me.

I needed to relax a bit before going to join Stellaria, and since it was late, we\'d spend the night together and then head out tomorrow morning back to Aldnoah.

Thanks to Abaddon\'s Apex Skill: 『Memory Queen Chronika』, she could easily alter the memory of everyone in the academy.

In other words, an Immortal Demon King never visited the Aldnoah Magic University.

Senesica, now in her feline form once again, gracefully perched on top of my head, her tail swaying lazily.

Dendrossa, her naked form immersed in the hotsprings to my left, cast a playful glance my way.

"You know, I never thought you could handle both Senesica and Abaddon," she teased.

Actually, it was more of a divide and conquer ordeal.

For now, I couldn\'t "handle" both of them at once.

Senesica let out a soft purr before replying, "Honestly, I was pleasantly surprised myself."

She paused and gracefully licked her fur.

Abaddon cleared her throat, casting me an enchanting smile.

"But what\'s more important is how incredibly skilled you are, honestly, my pussy hasn\'t felt that good in ages, " she remarked, her words carrying a seductive undertone.

Dendrossa chimed in, a note of curiosity lacing her words.

"It\'s quite intriguing, especially considering your feminine appearance."

Here we go again.

"Huh?" I replied.

Her eyes darted towards the towel I had used to wrap my hair.

"Only girls tend to do that," she pointed out, finding it funny for some reason.

I shrugged lightly, my long hair tied snuggly into my towel.

"Well, my hair\'s quite long, so it\'s practical," I reasoned.

I was tired of having to dispel lingering notions of gender expectations.

Abaddon stroked her chin thoughtfully. "You do have a point," she conceded.

Without warning, Dendrossa swam behind me, her hands gently settling on my waist. Her touch was electrifying, sending shivers down my spine. Sweet movements, her hand trailed up and down my waist, caressing it with affectionate care.

She whispered, her breath ghosting against my ear, "Despite what you say, your waist is undeniably sexy, even more than mine."

"Right? My ass didn\'t have enough of it~" Senesica moaned a "meow".

I couldn\'t help but sigh. "Let\'s not start with that," I murmured, suppressing a smile.

"It\'s true, though," Abaddon interjected.

"Not you too," I told her.

Abaddon giggled a bit, her nose wrinkling up in a sexy manner. "I\'m only saying the truth.."

As I stretched out my tired limbs, the warm waters of the hotsprings soothing my aching muscles, I turned to my female companions.

"So, isn\'t it about time you guys tell me why you came here?"

Senesica, gracefully patting my head with her soft paw, spoke.

"Yunno, you can tend to be a little more social in matters like these, beloved," she teased.

I wasn\'t an introvert, but that aside, I didn\'t have much "friends" either.

Dendrossa, with a knowing smile plastered on her face, added, "A little flexibility wouldn\'t hurt, you know?"

I raised an eyebrow, puzzled by their comments.

"Eh?" I uttered, genuinely curious.

Abaddon?s her crimson lips curling into a smile.

Naturally, she was the one took the lead in explaining their perspective.

"What they mean is, by having sex with us in accordance to the Naked Diplomacy Act, we\'ve formed a special pact. It\'s a bond that cannot be broken, and in other words, we\'ve become friends."

I scratched the back of my head. "I see," I mumbled.

She was technically right.

The purpose of having sex with diplomats was the further intimate understanding with one another.

The leader of a nation could sleep with a subordinate, but not the leader of the other nation.

Why? Because having sex with both the leader and the subordinates put them both on equal footing. And that should never happen.

Hence, sleeping with Dendrossa was a no no.

Not that I wanted to...

Seizing the opportunity to steer the conversation towards a more serious tone, Dendrossa rose from the hotsprings, revealing her entire naked form.

Great, as if I wasn\'t hard enough.

Small but perky breasts along with a delicately crafted pussy. One so prominent it folded outwards, enough that you could see it peak out in between her legs.

As she gracefully folded her hands in front of her, her expression turned solemn.

"The reason we sought out a Curse King like you, is because it\'s been ages since we last set eyes on one."

A puzzled expression crossed my face.

"But I thought Curse Kings were somewhat common among Demon Kings," I chimed in, genuinely surprised by their statement.

I wasn\'t saying Demon Kings were stronger than Curse Kings

What I meant was that a Demon King and Curse King should come across each other seeing as they were both on equal levels of existence.

In other words, a god couldn\'t say he/she hasn\'t seen another god in ages.

Only a mortal could say such.

Abaddon shook her head, her white hair dangling back and forth above her shoulders.

"Naturally, there should be more Curse Kings active. However, it\'s been a little over half a century since we last set eyes on a Curse King, and at that time, he was considered the most powerful Curse King in history."

Senesica rubbed her little chin. "Yeah, his name was..."

"Wait, is it Balrog...? The fire demon...?" I blurted out.

"Humu, you\'re a genius!" Dendrossa replied.

Genius? I didn\'t even say anything that worths that compliment.

If anything, I\'m an idiot— or rather, emotionally dense.

Then, Senesica, her soft paw gently patting my head, tilted her head to the side and asked, "Is it possible you\'ve have had some sort of contact with Balrog?"

I furrowed my brows, surprised by her question.

"No, Senesica, I don\'t even know a thing about him," I replied honestly.

Any concerns they had was better alleviated.

So from my perspective, Curse Kings were somewhat important to these guys, for some reason.

Because so far, I haven\'t seen a single person who likes a thing about them.

Not Klaus, or even Skarz. No one.

In Skarz?s case, he was loyal to me, so even with the knowledge that I\'d ascended to a Curse King, it didn\'t bother him one bit. He just wanted to serve me.

What a guy...

Abaddon smiled at me, her crimson lips on full display.

"Uh, what\'s wrong?" I asked her.

Then, she told me, "You know you can trust us to keep a secret," she edged closer towards me. "Come on, we did just have sex together you know~"

"Humu, just tell us already," Dendrossa persisted as well.

These guys really thought I was hiding information on him.

"Eeeh," I scratched the back of my head. "But I\'m saying the truth... I really don\'t know him.

"Humu," said Dendrossa.

"I really don\'t..." I said again, shrugging my shoulders in an attempt to shake off the unease.

Senesica playfully tapped her paw on my head. "Baka," she teased, "but you do know his name, don\'t you?"

I nodded, "Well yeah I do, but not because I know him personally."

I let that information settle in.

"You see, the Grygans you saw outside were cursed by Balrog, and for over fifty years or so. What I did was just to break the curse on them and I unintentionally became their ruler.."

"Ohhhh, the second law of Flyndor right?!" Abaddon snapped her fingers.

Naturally, magical principles got her excited. I\'d expect no less from a teacher.

"Yeah, that\'s the one," I responded.

"Humu, that makes sense," Dendrossa nodded her head with folded arms.

Abaddon rubbed her chin.

"Yeah, the Ancestral Binder put Balrog out of commission around forty years ago. Since then, there hasn\'t been any word from another Curse King."

My curiosity piqued, I couldn\'t help but blurt out, "Huh? Who\'s the Ancestral Binder?"

"Eh, It\'s not really important per se..." Senesica continued to rest on my head, casual as always.

"All you need to know is that she ended Balrog..." Dendrossa added.

I sighed and then told them, "Does that mean I should be worried too?"

I was a Curse King after all, so if this Ancestral Binder came after me, I was at equal risk of dying.

And from what they\'ve said so far, Balrog was way stronger than me and apparently he was still defeated.

Then again, [Consuming Void] was a powerful fail-safe skill.

So I doubt I\'d be defeated or "killed".

"Eh, yes and no." Abaddon smiled awkwardly.

"Hm?" I said.

"Well, Balrog went from village to village and even kingdoms leaving despair in his wake with every curse he cast— you don\'t do that so..."

"So I\'m safe... good..."

A sigh of relief exited my mouth.
