Chapter 179

In the days after Kanae's return from the dwarven factory Ha'Vavish, plans for the next journey were already in motion. The living sex bot they brought back was kept under watch at the Illuminant Repository and guarded by a platoon of knights. Until it could be determined that she wasn't a threat, Aidenhall's leadership wanted her to remain under lock and key. Marwin, Eliza, and numerous researchers were currently seeing to that.

Kanae and Esta, the Knights of Amethyst and Silver, had been summoned to meet with the Grand Eye at the Basilica of Saint Rue. As they marched through Aidenhall's corridors, palace knights stepped aside and bowed. A far cry from when they gazed upon her with cautious stares.

Inside, the Grand Eye was kneeling in the front of the Supreme One's statue. Her hands were together in prayer. Danito and Sheena accompanied her this time, but only the former smiled and nodded when they arrived. Sheena raised a finger to her lips to shush them.

"The Supreme One and the Many Gods are fickle," Grand Eye Analise said, remaining still where she knelt. "They will sometimes communicate with us, bestow upon us great powers, and open portals to domains where their trials and treasures await. Other times, they will playfully mock you while you're in prayer for no other reason than because they are bored."

"Oh, I know! You were just talking to Demigoddess Threcia?" Kanae took a wild but educated guess.

Analise finished her prayer and rose to meet Kanae's eyes with an amused smile.

"You can never know who will answer your prayers until it happens, then you question if you should have prayed at all." She sighed.

"Apologies for my patron god's fickle nature." Esta lowered her head apologetically in Threcia's place.

The Grand Eye beckoned for them to follow and headed in the direction of the archbishop's quarters. Her Saint Priests waited outside. Kanae and Esta entered with her into the private confines of the office. She fetched a stack of letters from a cupboard and tossed them onto the desk.

"I've summoned you to gain some clarity on a potentially delicate international affair. Open them." Analise tapped on the letters, many of which were stamped with the wax seal of the Commonwealth's flying succubus symbol and Ortesia's winged cross.

"Y-Yes, Grand Eye." Kanae gulped and opened the topmost letter sent out from Ehmvier.

To Ambassador Gaius, your gifts of the One's crosses to the Commonwealth's doorsteps are welcome. They shall make for great kindling in the hearths of our Eminence of Sin churches. The Sisters and disciples shall avail themselves in debaucherous fornication by the fires, warmed by your kind and blessed favors. Yours truly, High Priestess of the Ehmvier Chapter and First Sister Lilith.

Kanae and Esta lifted an uneasy look at the Grand Eye, who only gestured for them to read the next which came straight from Ortesia.

To the High Priestess of the Ehmvier and First Sister Lilith, I am glad the Supreme One's influence has reached the blackened and depraved filth that is the Commonwealth of Sin. Perhaps those crosses, ashes and cinders all, will ignite a cleansing flame to rid the stains that leak from your depraved ilk. Refrain from sending any more letters. Their odious stench from your beastly copulations makes me sick. With the utmost spite, Ambassador Gaius.

The next was from Lilith and had a lipstick kiss at the bottom…

To the Ambassador Gaius, you don't fancy the smokey perfume from your God's burnt crosses? Their ashes are still stuck to my sweaty skin even as I write this letter to you. Here I thought those gifts were attempts at flirting. If this correspondence so offends you, perhaps you should come and put a stop to them yourself. I look forward to reading your next letter~

Another from this Gaius fellow was wrinkled at the sides. The beautiful penmanship was beginning to waver compared to the earlier ones.

It seems a few of my letters were lost. These Aidenhall fools can lose a crate even if it was sitting in front of them! No matter. It isn't as though I want you to read them anyway. They concern me little, but I must make Ortesia's status clear after all. That's all this is, you hear me? Goad the Golden Fleet all you like, I will not fall for your ill-minded provocation! However, continue to speak so foully, and you may find yourself under threat of a holy crusade!

And another from Lilith that was clearly pushing it…

Oh, if you launch a crusade, then please come at me with all you have. I won't be able to handle all your divine punishment at once, so please be gentle!

You dirty minx. You would like that, wouldn't you? To have a chain around your neck, and I to hold the leash? I have a personal dungeon in Ortesia to deal with sinners like yourself. The things I'd like to do to you—

"Okay, I've read enough." Kanae cleared her throat and put down the rest of the letters. "How… How did you even get these?"

"Ambassador Gaius Heiroph resides in the Ortesian Embassy right here in Aidenhall! He doesn't know that letters coming in and out go through a strict screening. My people only took enough to avoid suspicion, and this is only a small fraction of their letters. Poor Delayn is flogging herself as we speak after reading these," the Grand Eye explained.

"I admit… the sexual tension between the two is something else. Master, is Lilith acting on your orders to respond to an ambassador in this way?" Esta asked.

"Of course not! I've been here this entire time! Still… I'm surprised their mutual threats pretty much turned into olden sexting. I'll send my own letter to tell Lilith to stop," she promised.

After getting that out of the way, the Grand Eye saw them out of the cathedral.

"Hopefully your letter will suffice. The last thing I need is them disguising smutty messages behind threats of war. Who in their right mind does that?" Analise pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed.

"I think I took Arenade ruling the Commonwealth for granted… We didn't have any problems when she was queen," Kanae grumbled.

"I imagine not. After all, Arenade Brightwind is high elven. Anyway, you're dismissed—"

"Your Grace, don't forget that other matter," Sheena reminded her.

Analise coughed awkwardly into her fist. "Turren may be getting restful sleep, but I haven't… I'd nearly forgotten to tell you two. Your report is quite troubling. If Lord Charron and the Queen-Mother become a united force, Radevic will be in grave danger. As will be your Commonwealth. I've already informed Elizabeth. Your next task may very well be your final one: ascertain what Charron's thoughts are on the matter. Chances are, given the demons' fierce resistance to the Queen-Mother's forces, he isn't interested in a union. However, we must be dutifully sure that their recent quarrels aren't some overt ploy to deceive us of their true intention. It wouldn't be Charron's first time…"

"Yes, Grand Eye!" Kanae and Esta bowed.

As they walked away, Kanae couldn't help but shake what the Grand Eye meant by that last part.

"Esta, do you know what she was referring to about Charron?" Kanae asked on their way to the Illuminant Repository.

"Most likely when Lord Charron went back against his promise to not invade Radevic after the war against the succubus queens. Marwin should know more," Esta said.

Kanae intended to find out. It might give them some insight as to Charron's relationship with the Queen-Mother. After that, they could also grill Arenade just in case.

The research laboratories were located at the backmost section of the Illuminant Repository. It was where the sex bot was held. Marwin should also be there. However, Kanae and Esta found a half-conscious researcher in the hallway, crawling away from the labs. Sweat caked his face, and his hair and robes were disheveled.

"Are you alright?" Esta sat him upright against the wall.

"The… dwarven auto… maton… the others… You have to… save them before… it's too late," he muttered.

They swallowed hard and raced down the hall to the laboratory. One of the heavy doors had been left ajar. Esta threw it open. Their noses immediately filled with the musk of sweat. Dozens of naked researchers, men and women alike, laid unconscious on the lab floor. The last conscious man was on a table, and on top of him was the dwarven sex bot, who was repeatedly pounding their hips together with powerful mechanical force.

"Come on… More, more! Is this all you got? Keep fucking me and don't you dare pass out like the others!" she howled.

"No more, I beg you… My hips… I think you shattered my hips— aahhh!" the researcher cried for help.

"Esta, get the bot!" Kanae ordered.

The drakeling knight pulled the sex bot off of the researcher. He spurted his load one last time before falling unconscious, foaming at the mouth.

"She's… stronger than she looks!" Esta, despite being much larger, was having trouble holding her still.

The sex bot's bright red eyes dimmed to a softer color, and she suddenly stopped struggling.

"Wh-What happened? What's going on?" she stammered.

"What happened? You fucked the entire research lab unconscious!" Kanae pointed to the still bodies on the ground.

"Uh…"

The three of them turned around. A minotaur stood there dumbfounded with a mug in hand. He scanned the people on the ground, trying to make sense of the situation.

They brought Arenade and healers in from the Basilica to restore the injured researchers' broken hips, fractured limbs, and snapped dicks. After getting the sex bot's side of the story, many of them remained unconvinced of her explanation.

"Let me get this straight… you really don't remember having sex with anyone?" Marwin, still as a minotaur, asked the bot.

"No, I really don't! I came back to my senses in Esta's arms and the two of you staring at me," she insisted.

Marwin scratched his chin, then pulled Kanae and Esta aside. Before he opened his mouth, Kanae beat him to the punch.

"You wanted to have sex with the bot, didn't you?" Kanae squinted.

"No…" Marwin averted his gaze.

They stared even harder.

He relented. "Okay, fine! I saw her start having sex with the researchers. You know how it is with us scholarly types! We're stuck here all day conducting research and experiments with little time to date. At first, it looked like a harmless group play with her at the center. No one was getting hurt. So I went to get changed into a body that can perform. How was I supposed to know she would screw them to death upon my return?"

The two of them groaned into their hands.

"Can I go home now?" Arenade asked after healing the last injured. "I should be in a hot bath right now, not using my magic on penile trauma."

"You're not leaving yet. You and Marwin stay here," Kanae commanded them with a charm.

They— since Marwin was in a minotaur's body not protected by the magical markings— fell under her sway and obeyed.

"Esta, have I ever told you how grateful I am that you're normal?" Kanae sighed.

"I'm flattered, Master. Whatever you wish of me, I shall be at your beck and call. Even if it means barking to your amusement," Esta said.

Kanae slapped a hand to her face for speaking too soon. She pulled Arenade, Marwin, and Esta off to the side, out of earshot from anyone else.

"Since you two are here, I was hoping you can tell us something we don't already know about Lord Charron and the Queen-Mother. Like how are they related other than being Ambrosia's birth parents?" Kanae asked.

"Beats me." Arenade shrugged, then leaned in so only Kanae could hear. "I might be a demigoddess, but I'm not nor was I ever omniscient. Besides, we should probably keep quiet that Charron, the demon lord, is my brother. That's going to cause some problems for sure."

"Okay, I get it. You're the one who sometimes lets slip that you're related anyway…"

"If Lord Charron and the Queen-Mother were together in any way back then, it certainly didn't show. They were at each other's throats. Whenever we met on the battlefield, they threw insults at each other left and right. Some were downright vile and mean!" Marwin explained, deep in thought as he tried to remember, but not realizing that Arenade and Kanae gaped at his revelation.

They exchanged glances.

"Sounds like exes to you?" Kanae posed.

"Definitely exes." Arenade agreed.

Great.

When they turned their attention back to the bot, she had folded both of her hands and looked down ashamedly.

"I've been thinking… What is my purpose?" she asked them.

"According to the dwarves' design? To become the perfect sex doll," Kanae said.

"O-Oh, my gods…" Those red eyes of hers grew distant from an existential crisis.

Kanae felt bad. They couldn't exactly keep calling her a sex bot. It was demeaning. She was clearly sapient and capable of emotions.

"Do you have a name?" Kanae asked.

The bot shook her head.

"Hmm. How about… Lapis, after lapis lazuli? Your hair has the same color blue with yellow streaks in it," Kanae suggested.

"Lapis… It sounds beautiful!!" Lapis smiled genuinely for the first time since her awakening.

"Laps, you really don't have any memories?" Esta asked her.

"My memories begin when I saw all of you in the tower," she said.

Which was weird, because Lapis was capable of language and complex thoughts of an adult person. The fact that she uttered 'gods' just earlier proved she possessed some semblance of knowledge about this world.

"From what we've learned so far of Lapis makes little sense," Marwin began with clipboard in hand and lifting a comically small monocle up to his eye. "Her hair is made of corundum. Minerals shouldn't be as silky and flowy like that, but it is. Her entire body is made from a mixture of stone, metal, and clay, completely unlike the automatons found in dwarven cities. More closer to elemental earthen constructs. That might be why her breasts can feel so supple, but I can't speak to her vagina until I try it— ahem. Regarding the core in her chest, we know nothing about it. But it is clear from what you told us that it powers her. Much like a heart!"

There was no mistaking it now. Lapis was the weapon Lady was after in Ha'Vavish.

"What about the meisterium?" Kanae asked

"Your guess is as good as ours on that one. We would have to break her open to find out, and I don't think Lapis would appreciate that, would she?" Marwin glanced up at the one in question, who was frantically shaking her head. "What perplexes me the most is that being around her clearly renders magic inert, yet the orb is obviously magical. I don't get it. I want to know!"

"Uhm… How much longer do I have to stay cooped up in here? I'd like to go outside. When you brought me here, I thought the palace looked very beautiful. Can I see more of it?" Lapis asked almost pleadingly, but no one wanted to break it to her.

Kanae assumed responsibility since she brought Lapis to life. "It's best you stay here for now. People are afraid of you, and there's no telling what else you're capable of."

"B-But I didn't mean to hurt those people just now! I… I—" She froze up and stared forward.

Kanae waved a hand in Lapis' face, but there was no response at all. Instead, her eyes glowed bright red like before.

"Updating parameters for a threesome… Appraising personality quirks for optimal sexual chemistry… Shaping a penis for insertion," Lapis said stiffly.

"Wait, this happened earlier! It's the precursor to her going berserk. Please, allow me to face this challenge!" Marwin insisted, stepping forward in all his minotaur bulk.

"No, let me. We should see what it is that Lapis can do to a succubus that the Queen-Mother is so afraid of!" Kanae jumped in and ran into the wizard.

The two of them butted horns.

"You both are idiots. Just admit you want Lapis to fuck you!" Arenade groaned.

The clay around the automaton's waist grew a large penis, just like how Kanae could grant herself one with Futanari.

"Wow. Talk about versatility…" Kanae wiped the drool from her chin.

"You know what this slut needs? A good fucking. Come on, cow man. Get that fat cock over here and fuck her!" Lapis dashed behind Kanae and lifted her up, folding her legs up to her chest and spreading her pussy wide open.

"Not what I had in mind, but I'll take it!" Marwin loomed over Kanae with his throbbing minotaur dick pressing against her labia.

"I'm the one in the middle?" Kanae cried.

"I would help you, Master. However, Loyalty Fixation is telling me you're perfectly fine and right where you want to be. I shall be over here, searing the image of this moment into my mind." Esta nodded.

"Thanks, Esta… I expected nothing less from my— oooouughhh?!"

Lapis and Marwin shoved their dicks into Kanae without warning. The impact knocked the wind out of her lungs and then some. They filled her right up, Lapis from behind and Marwin from the front.

"Kanae, damn it! You could have at least let me go home first!" Arenade, still under her charm, complained from the back.

"Sorry, but I— aahhh!" Kanae's eyes rolled back from being fucked in the ass and pussy.

Their threesome drew an audience. The researchers from earlier, who had come back to consciousness, watched on as Lapis and Marwin double-teamed Kanae. She was ecstasy. Her body heaved with every thrust that punched her insides.

"You like that, don't you?" Lapis whispered into Kanae's ear and sent shivers coursing through her. "See all these people watching you get fucked like a whore? That's what they'll think from now on whenever they talk about you. A whore for a dick. Now beg, bitch. Or we're gonna stop!"

"Don't stop! Keep fucking me! I love it… I love being fucked in both of my holes!" Kanae screamed, convulsing to the irregular rhythm of pumping into her. She couldn't fight back either. Being next to Lapis made her powerless. Sandwiched between them, a meat hole for fucking was all she amounted to.

Lapis grabbed hold of Kanae's tail and yanked.

"Ooooh! Pupil, you tighten up whenever Lapis pulls your tail… it feels so heavenly!" Marwin used Kanae's horns as leverage. The way he gripped her love handles so hard threatened to snap them off. She did the same, holding onto his horns while he pounded into her pussy. A thick, minotaur tongue lapped her face.

"Yeah, how fun. You know what sounds fun? Me, at home and in a hot bath." Bored out of her mind, Arenade sat down and grumbled to herself.

"I'm losing my mind! Your cocks are messing me up so much I'll cuuuuuuummm!" Kanae shuddered as the pleasure and hot cum pouring into her womb brought her to climax.

Lapis pulled out first and backed away from them, leaving Marwin to hold Kanae aloft by her horns. Once his dick popped out, a flood of ejaculate spilled from her pussy and pooled on the ground.

"Ugh… My bad. I must have blanked out again and— eeeehhh? Did… Did it happen again?" Lapis reluctantly asked.

"Yes… it did… and it was amazing." Kanae raised a shaky arm and managed to give a thumbs up.

A few peeved janitors were called to mop the cum off the floor. Meanwhile, Kanae recovered and was on her feet again if not a little weak in the knees. Lapis, however, was down in the dumps again. Although Kanae was absolutely glowing from having fantastic sex, she felt terrible about putting Lapis in that position.

"If say you and a few strong individuals were to accompany her, I see no reason Lapis can't tour Aidenhall," Marwin whispered.

"As long as I'm with her to take the brunt of her banging, right?" Kanae scoffed at the suggestion.

"Well if you put it that way, that sounds like a win in your book! But look at her. Being cooped up in here can't possibly be good. Maybe fresh air will help. If not, it's only back to square one where we already are," he explained.

When Kanae looked at Lapis, she saw a walking time bomb of a sex doll. However, that sex doll was just a sad and lost woman right now.

"How about this, Lapis— You try your best to keep that crazy sex programming under control for the rest of today, and we take you around tomorrow?" Kanae offered.

"Really?" Lapis gasped. "I'll keep it under control! I will!"
