First Demonic Dragon

Abaddon looked at the numerous spirits who were ensnared by vines and yet still desperately trying to crawl towards him. 

Previously he would have found himself annoyed by such a thing but now he simply found them rather cute. 

Like puppies who were desperately trying to lick his hand. 

“I got you now-KYAAAA!!” 

Charlotte had been the latest nature spirit to try to cop a feel, and it resulted in the grass hog-tying her legs and arms before tossing her at his feet. 

She was unsure if she liked this outcome more or less. 

Abaddon got on one knee beside her in the grass and started to pat her lightly on the head. 

“You’re certainly an amusing one. It’s been a while since I was so entertained.” 

The sensation of his gentle yet firm hands on her head was almost too much for Charlotte to bear and by now she had practically begun to salivate. 

“I-I can’t move while I’m tied up like this so you could do anything you wanted with me… anything…. ANYTHING!” 

“I already am.”

“Y-You don’t want to have sex with me once or six times?” 

“No, I’m married. I’m sure you would have been lovely though.” 

“Don’t just guess! Find out for sure!!” 

“I’m alright.” 

Abaddon finally stood up from the ground and left Charlotte wiggling in the grass, desperately trying to follow him. 

He naturally drifted towards Sabine who hadn’t taken her eyes off him since he showed up. 

“Speak your mind, Sabine. It’s not good to hold your tongue.” 

Instead of behaving normally, Sabine fell to her knees and prostrated in front of Abaddon. 

She noticed some shuffling occurring in front of her and looked up to find him sitting cross legged on the ground, his chin resting in his palm and a light of confusion in his eyes. 

“What are you doing?”

“I-I have been disrespectful ever since our first meeting, and for that I extend my most sincere apologies..! If you’ll allow it, I will serve you with all of my being for the rest of my life.” 

Abaddon felt an intensely jealous gaze piercing into his back and he knew immediately where they were coming from. 

In her mind, Thea knew that her father did not have any interest in the mature spirit but there was still a small feeling of jealousy present. 

She wanted to be the one that this busty beauty professed herself to! 

Luckily Abaddon was able to recognize the interest that his daughter had in Sabine and shook his head in refusal. 

“Your offer is appreciated, but I already have more than enough subordinates at the moment. Although I do have room for a new daughter-in-law in my family?”

“Daughter-in-law?” Sabine asked curiously. 

“H-He’s just joking!” Thea practically tackled her father in an effort to cover his mouth and save her from further embarrassment. 

Abaddon laughed before pulling her into his lap and lightly stroking her hair.

“Alright, alright, I won’t tease you. But you shouldn’t wait too long you know?”

“Y-Yea, I get it…”

Thea relaxed a bit in the familiar place of her father’s embrace but her cheeks were still a bit red. 

“Father… why does it feel as though you are so different now? Has cultivation truly changed you so?”

Abaddon fell silent, as he didn’t exactly know the answer to that either. 

He just felt a lightness in his body and soul that presented itself in his every thought and action. 

It was almost like he was at total peace. 

“I believe I may have an answer for that.” Sabine suddenly said. 

The father daughter pair watched her clear her throat as she tried to give her most professional explanation. 

“I neglected to mention this before, but the different domains in this realm all have different kinds of energy flowing through them. Since your father decided to attempt his…. ‘cultivation’ in the nature domain, he has been reborn a nature spirit and as such now shares our characteristics. We are gentle, carefree, graceful, and very sexual. Although the last one does not seem to have affected him for some reason…”

In truth, Abaddon had noticed that his mind now drifted towards lewd things every few seconds, but there wasn’t anything he could do about it now. 

But one thing was for sure, his wives were in for a very long and pleasurable reunion when they finally saw him again. 

“I see… no wonder I felt that the process was so difficult.” Abaddon muttered. 

His nature affinity was always the most difficult for him to use and the one he had the lowest proficiency in, since his body was just not one that was adapted to bringing life. 

It made total sense as to why he’d had so many difficulties in this area. 

“I am surprised that it did not take longer.” He admitted. “A few hours was really a small price to pay for such good rewards.”

Sabine made a confused face as if she did not quite understand Abaddon’s statement. “Umm… you were in that state for close to five months, Abaddon.”

“Huh… yes, that makes much more sense.” He said with a nod. 

“Father, has your sickness been cured now?” Thea asked. 

Abaddon nodded slowly as he analyzed his body’s internal condition. 

In truth, his so called ‘sickness’ was just a result of him over exerting himself.

The night he evolved on the beach, Gabbrielle suggested that he try to undo the seal on his divine powers just a bit, so that maybe he could finally start to use them. 

And against all odds, he could!

…For an entire two seconds. 

As soon as that timeline expired, Abaddon felt a drowsiness unlike anything he had ever known and he was unconscious for an entire day. 

But even when he woke up, his powers were fine but his physical body had begun to deteriorate. 

Even though he was stronger, his body still just wasn’t made to handle that level of power. 

His daughter Gabbrielle felt incredibly guilty like it was her fault that he had ended up in that state, no matter how many times he tried to tell her that it wasn’t. 

But now that he was healthy again, he hoped that she would finally stop feeling bad and his little girl would be back to normal. 

“It’s indeed been cured… I think I may even be able to use more of my sealed abilities now. I would say around ten percent for… maybe four minutes?”

Thea widened her eyes at such a big jump in power, clearly understanding just how monumental a feat this was.

“This is great, father! Now we can go home and be with everyone again!” Thea said happily. 

Even though it hadn’t been very long, she was beginning to miss her wives and younger siblings very much. 

A sentiment that her father also happened to share. 

After all, he did not want to leave them alone to deal with the approaching threat to their home and people. 

Becoming a nature spirit had made him less prone to worry, but it hadn’t completely erased it from his mind. 

However, he knew that he couldn’t leave this place behind just yet. 

“Thea, if you like then you are free to return home immediately but I will be staying behind for now.”

“What? Why, father?”

“I need to absorb the surrounding energy from a few of the other domains first. I can’t leave until I can gain everything I can from this place.”

“I… wait a second.”

Sabine held up her hands in a stopping gesture as her brow furrowed like she’d just heard something absurd. 

“I’m sorry, but now that you are a nature spirit you will not be able to survive in the other environments, much less absorb the energy in the atmosphere-“

“Sabine, I had thought you had grown tired of underestimating me?” Abaddon said with a smile. 

The bewitching spirit felt her nonexistent pulse quicken from the lethality of his friendly gesture and she began having a hard time remembering what they were talking about. 

“I-I was…. Umm..”

Pow!

Thea gave her father a ‘small’ elbow in the ribs that would have been enough to obliterate a wall and only earned a small amount of laughter from him. 

Something she did not seem to really appreciate. 

“I’m going to tell mothers that they must keep an even tighter leash on you, lest your new appearance render you the bane of my and Apophis’ marital life.”

Abaddon suddenly had a vision of the eight women he loved most in the world smothering him with so much love and possessiveness that he could suffocate on it. 𝚘𝚟xt.𝑪𝑂𝗆

…It was such a beautiful reality that he had to make it come true. 

“…You promise?” 

Thea merely rolled her eyes and elected not to comment any further, silently anticipating the arrival of a new sibling in the near future. 

Sabine still hadn’t the foggiest inclination of what was going on, and instead of interfering in these family matters she returned to the question still in her mind. 

“I will admit that you are a man of many mysteries and enigmas, Abaddon. But I fail to see why you believe that you will be capable of such a feat as intermingling the elemental atmosphere?”

Abaddon removed Thea from his lap and placed her directly beside him. 

He grew right before their eyes, into the same monstrous draconic creature as before and pointed to the gems located in his chest. 

Sabine’s eyes nearly popped out of her skull at the thirteen gems that were all different colors. 

But the most shocking thing was that only the green one in the center was glowing, the rest were all dark, like they were waiting for activation. 

“All of those powers… you have thirteen elements…?” She asked in shock. 

“Fourteen if you count spirit magic, but I don’t seem to have a gem for that.” Abaddon realized as he poked his large torso. “How interesting.”

By now, Sabine had seen Abaddon do so many impossible things that she felt like she was a newborn who knew nothing of the world. 

“Alright then.. I will remain here and wait to hear tale of your success.” she said respectfully. 

Thea looked at her with a small amount of longing. “You sound like you aren’t planning to come with us. Are you bored of our company already…?”

“N-No! But I cannot leave this place of my own volition, and thus I am unable to accompany you further.”

Abaddon put on a thoughtful expression as he ran his monstrous hands through his long white hair. 

“You say you cannot leave this place of your own volition, then what would allow you to leave?”

“Well, I would need to enter into a contract with a spirit caller. Once we were connected then I would be protected from the other domains since I will technically only be an extension of my caller.”

Abaddon did not bother to say anything, and instead stared a hole into the back of Thea’s head. 

“Well…Would you consider entering into a contract with me then?” Thea asked hopefully. 

Sabine looked at her suspiciously as she folded her arms. “Do you know what it means to enter a contract with me?”

“Yea, that you’ll be able to come with us.”

“That is not… pfft..” Sabine tried and failed to hold in a laugh from this bad joke. 

She stood up and pulled Thea to her feet before the two of them clasped hands. 

“Are you certain you want to do this? If you aren’t compatible with my power you could get hurt or even die.”

“I think I’ll be fine. I’m a lot more durable than I look.”

“We shall see.”

A white light started to shine on the point of contact between them, and Thea felt like her mind was being opened up and her deepest secrets pried upon. 

While Thea and Sabine were finalizing their contract, Abaddon lifted his monstrous eight foot frame off the ground and waited for them to finish. 

‘I wonder what powers the other domains will bring me… I’m actually starting to get a bit excited.’
