90 Guilty

Vulki and Nemesis are begging in front of me.... After hearing about the situation from Nemesis, I then asked Xelu for the full truth. I could see that Nemesis and Vulki are both guilty. Xelu is innocent, she was following the lead of the other two..... As for what they were doing.....

Apparently, they would grind up against me in a weird pleasure, lick every inch of my exposed skin.... Nemesis would even marionette my unconscious body to pat their heads, along with some less wholesome things..... I do wonder how I was never woken up in the middle of some of this stuff.....

Punishment....

Vulki POV-

Ravel Ratted us out! Xelu ratted us out!

""I'm sorry!"" Vulki and Nemesis

"Mashta? Sorry?" Xelu

"You're not to blame, Xelu. You've just had some bad influences." Gin

Gin pats Xelu's head and she turns her head upright and grins. She wasn't entirely truthful either. It seems that she has gotten much more sly since her last evolution. Me and Nemesis are taking the blame while she gets head pats! I should never have educated her this way!

Me and Nemesis have had some changes since our last evolutions as well. It's a bit harder to get our desires under control. I can understand why Nemesis changed since her draconic attribute turned into a dragon one. Dragons are known as creatures of extreme sin and desire. The only thing that seems to have grown is her fascination with Gin. She isn't quite lustful..... A bit pure.....

I'm..... A bit different..... I understand earthly pleasures. Despite my evolution adding a Seraphim aspect, my desire has only grown. To be touched, to touch. It has much more meaning, feeling, and desire behind it than before..... I regret not experiencing this desire with Gin first.... No. 'Sigrid' was not me! 'She never was!'

*bang

I smash my head against the metal webs below me. Blood flows into my eyes turning my vision red. Never! Never!

"Vulki-? You don't need to hurt yourself over this, I was just going to give you two a minor punishment....." Gin

Gin seems to have misunderstood my actions..... Wait, punishment? Why does that word make my heart flutter?

"I guess that since you are feeling that remorseful over what happened then it's fine." Gin

"Wait! I still feel guilty! I need ro repent!" Vulki

"I agree, saint. Without this, we won't repent and may even repeat our actions." Nemesis

"Repent." Xelu

It's odd hearing Nemesis wanting to be punished. I've heard about her previous life and it seems to be full of horrible experiences.... Maybe....

...

Gin is looking at us with a awkward expression on his face?

"You three seem a little enthusiastic about this. I wasn't even going to do anything to Xelu.... Let's see.... You three are no longer allowed near me when I sleep except in emergencies." Gin

Noooo! This is not what I was hoping for!

"Mashta, I've repented." Xelu

-Gin POV

I leave the three and lay down on the new couch that was made. Ravel and Set worked together to make it. It is made with very soft golden silk and amber ink. The feeling is like heaven... Wait. Am I forgetting something?.....

Oh shit! There is a war going on! I tell a few metal spiderlings to gather everyone up. They salute me as they head off to the different broodmothers. Set arrives quickly. She sprints and collides into me breaking into threads that immediately turn into tattoos. Tessa had a few tasks for her so she was absent when I interrogated Vulki and Nemesis earlier. She is quiet as usual but, I can feel great relief through telepathy.

Eventually everyone arrives. Kess is super engorged making it so that her spiderlings had to carry her in. Among the various elves that we are in contact with, some have taken a liking to the various types of webbing that is produced here. Kess has made a deal with some of them, food for webbing.....

Of course Tessa and I still monitor the amount so that Kess doesn't become useless. If Kess had a say she would just produce and trade web for food 24 hours a day.....

Everyone's a bit curious other than Nemesis and Ravel who knows about what I want to announce.

"The war has started up again. This is a good chance to strengthen ourselves." Gin

'I just wish that I could participate as well.... I'll watch over the nest while you guys are gone. Should probably seal the nest.' Tessa

The tone that Tessa has is a bit weird but, I ignore that and nod to what she says. We're going to go full force since there is no need to hide anymore. Both the Union and the Black Iron Pyre should be aware of me.....

------

I gather up thousands of spiderlings. It should be close to four thousand including the new ones that Ravel has summoned. Inival who has been living in the meeting hall in front of the nest comes out in full gear....? It seems that she is wearing armor made of a bunch of different threads from Set and the rest of the broodmothers. I should have something similar made. She is carrying that cursed looking greatsword that Wetho had given her previously.

I look at the remote that I had gotten from a scout. It should help me get in contact with Farblight who is the new ruler of the elves. I activate it and I wait a bit for the other side. Eventually a small blue figure of Farblight appears over the remote.

"Hello, hello? How does this- ohh. Saint, I've been trying to figure this thing out. Drun is usually the one to use this thing. Anyways, do you want to participate in this war? It would relieve a lot of pressure and it would help you a lot in terms of levels." Queen Farblight

"Yeah, we're going full-force now. Not much use remaining hidden now." Gin

"Yes saint, hmmmm..... Do you remember the way to the stronghold? We were able to set up an emergency circle near your nest momentarily before since it was a bad situation but, that is extraordinarily expensive." Farblight

"Yeah I remember..... It's just that the commander there....." Gin

"Krychek? How's he doing? Still looking for wives? He said that if I wasn't his cousin he would propose to me..... Not sure why I told you that...." Farblight

I don't think that is the only reason.....

"Yeah, he's a bit too over the top though" Gin

"Should be fine, I guess I'll see you in a few days, saint. We all look forward to seeing you again." Farblight

I really don't want to have to deal with Krychek again.....
