The rise of the pervert primordial

On the way back to the building that Ixas created for them, Aster turned to see the girls before saying.

“Did Vivian left her room to eat before I woke up?”, he asked.

It’s not like he didn’t think about Vivian before when he didn’t see her with the other girls, but he “kind of got too much into their conversation, that being said he took a couple of plates in his space ring, just in case.

And his supposition turned to be right as Mylene shook her head before saying.

“No, I knocked on her door but she said she’ll wait for you to wake up”.

Aster nodded.

“I’ll go check on her, you three can return to the room and rest”.

“Mm”, Mylene and Camila simply nodded and went ahead to the room, which they were still sharing though it was day and the moon wasn’t on the sky, Ixas completely blocked the sunlight from entering his underground village, but they didn’t leave.

Kana on the other hand remained next to Aster’s with a somewhat curious expresson on her face.

“Big brother, can I go with you to see sister Vivian?”.

Aster saw Kan giving him puppy eyes and he chuckled.

“Sure, but once we are down with it, you’ll start your meditation of the day okay”.

“Yeeiii, thanks big brother~”.

Aster and Kana walked towards the small secluded room that Vivian asked Ixas to build for her, she literally distanced herself from the rest of the group.

Aster knocked on the door of Vivian’s room and after a couple of seconds a soft voice came from inside of it.

“Is that you Aster?”.

“Yes, can I go in?”.

…. “Are you alone?”.

Aster raised an eyebrow, she knew he isn’t affected by her poison, and that’s why she isn’t so distant with him in comparison to other people, but now judging by her monotone voice, she has returned to her past emotionless self, prior to her treatment with Rigel’s flames.

“Kana is with me, are you alright?”.

“Mm… you can come in”.

Aster opened the door and was immediately assaulted by a deep sweet smell, different to the apple like smell Kana noticed when she met Vivian, this one had a citrus like scent, like smelling a freshly squeezed orange juice.

But that’s not what caught his attention, but the fact that the room was full to the brim with yang energy, to the point that inside the temperature was a few grades higher than outside.

“Vivian?”, Aster saw the white fragile figure of Vivian sitting in a corner of her room, sitting with her knees in front of her face.

The first thing Aster did was raise a barrier made out of Rigel’s flames around the room, because he noticed the yang energy lingering in the room trying to escape.

“What happened, I thought you were alright?”, he asked as he approached Vivian.

Aster couldn’t help but frown, with each step he took, the yang energy tried to fry him, the heat was no joke his clothes which were bathed in his blood, were actually starting to burn on the corners of his sleeves, also his feet left burning marks on the ground.

“Humph”, Aster snorted, his body exploded in blue flames and the yang energy manifested itself in the form of an orange mist, that clashed against Rigel’s flames, creating a steam liberation that only lasted a couple of seconds before all the yang was purified by Aster.

Surprisingly, Aster was pending of Kana’s well-being during the whole event, and he noticed that both Rigel’s flames and that strangely aggressive yang simply passed around her without harming her at all, she even touched it and was unaffected by it.

Once that little clash finished, Aster approached Vivian and covered her with Rigel’s flames, only then she regained the previous vibrant and energetic aura that surrounded her, after Aster helped her.

Aster offered his hand, which she happily accepted to get up from her sitting position.

“Thanks…”, Aster knew Vivian couldn’t move when she was affected by her poison, and even after she managed to suppress it, she needed some time to get used to move again.

Aster helped her sit down on her bed and then he sat in a stone chair in front of her, Kana naturally sat down on his lap.

“What happened, that was yang poison, not the multicolored mist I expelled from you before?”.

Vivian sighed; she moved the dress that covered her right shoulder to show Aster her skin, which besides the usual paleness, had a pattern which resembled flower petals, but was quickly fading away.

“That looks like the petals of a Flame Lily”, Kana looked at the patterns and before it completely disappeared, she seemed to find a resemblance with some kind of flower.

Vivian was positively surprised by Kana’s observation, but she still corrected her.

“Almost, this is a variation or more accurately an upper and dangerous species, Devil Flame Lily… which is of course poisonous, specially for women since it’s a yang-oriented flower”.

“Did someone here tried to poison you or…”, Aster frowned, while he more or less could tell the most recent additions to the group, in other words, Ixas, Natasha and Charlotte, where trustable, he still had his reserves towards the two protectors, as they clearly didn’t like him.

However, it’s not like he cared about what others thought about him, so he didn’t really take their glares seriously, but if they were trying something funny, then things changed completely.

“No, it’s not that… the poison in my body my body constitution’s method to protect me, the only reason as to why I’m being troubled by it, is because it’s too strong for me to control it, you could say it “overprotects” me”.

“I was careless and didn’t notice that the light of the moon had such a strong negative effect on women, my body constitution generated the yang poison of the Devil Flame Lily to counter it, which normally wouldn’t have been a problem… if not for the fact that there was already a ying type poison helping me counter the light of the sun to which we were exposed yesterday”.

“What you saw earlier was the reaction of the two poisons clashing in my body, I no longer react to normal yang or ying negative effects since I have grown used to them, so now I’m immune, but whatever was used to alter the sun and the moon of this place is of a higher grade than what I’m used to, and the poison generated by my body was too much for me to handle two at the same time”.

Aster was in a loss for words right now, if what Vivian mentioned was true, then her body constitution was way stronger than what he expected, her body practically protected her against anything, with poison though.

“Uncle told me to not mention it… but at this point I would have died if not for your help, so I can at least tell you that my body constitution is called Myriad Poison Heart”.

‘Another constitution which isn’t listed in the ones known in the four Heavenly Quadrants that I know off’, thought Aster, just like Felicia and Tiana’s ones, Vivian’s constitution was new for him, and he had a pretty decent knowledge about them, because that’s one of the few things Lilia did have some interest when she was still a teen, besides fighting of course.

“Why didn’t you tell me earlier, I could have helped you suppress it if you woke me up?”, asked Aster.

​ Vivian shook her head with an ashamed expression as she answered.

“It hasn’t been that long since this happened, though I felt a bit strange earlier since I had no appetite, despite being “clean” of poison I could move and see without any problem, so I thought I was just tired, I returned to my room and then this reaction started, about half an hour ago”.

Aster didn’t know what to say, that dangerous reaction had only started half an hour ago and it was already hard to deal with, but then it wasn’t Vivian’s fault too, even Mylene was affected by the moon of the secret realm after all.

“Pack your things, you’ll be staying with us from now and onwards, so that I can help you in case something like this happens again”.

Natasha and Charlotte weren’t the only ones from Divine Firmaments in the secret realm, so there was bound to be more surprises in the “dangerous elements”, to which Vivian will be exposed, during their stay here.

But…”, Vivian listened to Aster and she flushed a bit, which was quite noticeable since her skin was so pale.

“Besides Kana who was with me from the very beginning, Mylene and Camila are also staying in my room due to the effects of the moon, apparently when you are near of me, you won’t be affected by it, so you won’t need to create more poison”.

“Big brother is right, come stay with us sister Vivian, the more the better~”, Kana also invited Vivian, thinking she’ll have another person to talk and play with.

“Mm… sorry for the trouble”, after a moment of seeing Kana’s adorably enthusiastic face, Vivian shily nodded as she packed the few things she brought with her, including her bed, into her spatial ring.

“Let’s go”, once Vivian had packed her things, she left the room accompanied with Aster and Kana, on the way Aster called Ixas.

“Can you expand our room more; Vivian will be staying with us”.

“Sure… no problem”, Ixas simply waved his hand and one of the walls of the building moved a couple of meters to the side, expanding the inner space.

Needless to say, but Mylene and Camila were taken by surprise by the sudden change, but they immediately understood what was happening when they saw Vivian walking next to Aster.

“I guess it was to be expected”.

“I mean, we are also staying with him… so I guess there is no harm if she joins us”.

Mylene and Camila exchanged gazes and they mumbled between each other.

Aster, Kana and Vivian entered the room and Aster closed the door behind him.

“We’ll be travelling at night, so you can rest for the time being, ah right I saved some food for you”, Aster handed Vivian the food he got for her from the banquet, now that she was clean of poison her appetite returned.

Vivian installed her bed and sat down to eat the food Aster handed her.

“That reminds me, do you know what was used to mess up with the moon and the sun of the secret realm?”, asked Aster to Mylene, although Natasha and Charlotte are pretty strong, and he is sure he hasn’t seen them use their strongest state, unless their attributes were as strong as annihilation, they wouldn’t be able to affect Mylene with their current cultivation.

And he was sure that wasn’t the case, so it had to be some kind of external method.

“Mm, I inspected them with my divine sense, and they were both altered using a feather, the Emerald Whirlwind has a really high control over this secret realm, so I guess those feathers come from those two’s ancestors… I’ll just say they are way stronger than me or Eris even in our prime”.
