3 Months later.As footsteps echoed within the hall in the early morning, a trio of men could be seen making their way towards the ma.s.sive double doors ahead. The Doors were guarded by more than 20 armed guards that awaited their arrival, they evenly lined up on opposite sides to welcome the three men.
Leaving the opening of the door to the few remaining guards, as they opened up the doors a bright light escaped from inside and as it dimed the trio saw the living metal baptism hall before their eyes.
The Chiladar people did their best to show that they were willing to cooperate in any way to please the Dragon Emperor along with his two Generals, Lord Three Suns and Lord Timothy.
As the three men walked into the chamber, were these sacred baptisms took place the light blue pool of living metal became active. It has been awhile since someone last visited this exact chamber.
Most Chiladar youths were far too weak to undergo the baptism in this chamber so they underwent the process in another chamber that had weaker living metal water.
The Elder and man who thought he would no longer be a King, King Shanlar now stood proud as he was one step away from becoming a True G.o.d. He explained to everyone that the living metal is apart of everything on the planet, be it the wildlife, plants, even the air and water possess living metal in it. The metal is beyond magical as it defies common logic, the ocean that was shown off as well as every springs, ponds, rivers and waterfalls of this world were all living metal water! This shocked both Generals as they never heard or seen such a thing back on their home world.
But this is what I have been searching for within this Realm the moment I arrived, my wives may have picked this realm as it was close to the Teress Realm but I had already seen the future and made plans for this choice.
Staring at my prize I can finally activate those d.a.m.n seals, with this not only will my power drop to that of True G.o.d but I will have full control over my body and as time moves on both bodies!
King Shanlar then began to explain the uses of the baptism once again as he was overjoyed that falling under control of the Dragon Empire was the best decision the Chiladar ever made. Over the three months since they surrendered many powerful families crumbled and new ones formed, he did not mind this as every family that was destroyed was one he and the other major powers tried but failed to eliminate. They were the families that abused the living metal and sold it to anyone even if it was in small amounts.
With these families gone they finally united all the Chiladar major powers, while destroying these families with the aid of the Dragon Empires armies. They found far to much corruption and evidence that showed that these families single handedly were the causes of every calamity that they faced as a entire race. They were even more sure that becoming part of the Dragon Empire was the right thing when the Emperor himself left them be in charge of how to deal with said families and their a.s.sets.
"Emperor The living metal baptism is were one lets the metal become one with their flesh and bones, this allows one to have enhanced regeneration abilities thanks to the metals ability to become stronger when damaged. This also makes it hard for anything that has ever damaged the bodies of those baptised to cause any further damage, but they will still feel pain and can die from intense pain. But in our long history no one has ever died that way, each chamber of living metal water that we use for the baptisms are different in quality.
This is the original source for each of the other chambers, they all came from this pool of living metal! This place is older than even the Chiladar Race, no matter the amount we could never drain this chamber of its living metal. Those who have bathed in its water have all gone insane due to the purity of the living metal, as most know living metal is mostly non intelligent that depend on a host to live. The living metal water here is anything but that, they drive most insane that can not deal with the intense pain of the absorption as well as a test of will." Shanlar who was about to continue his speech then opens his eyes to the Emperor he came to happily call son sitting in the pool of water.
With the living metal water up to his neck as he sits in the pool, Shanlar"s mind was racing his youngest daughter had just been married to this young Emperor. No man or woman has ever exited that pool except for a small few who had first bathed in every other pool, he had already heard that his daughter was pregnant with a child was he going to lose a son was his daughter about to lose her husband.
"Old man relax the living metal in the pool has already accepted me and started merging with my flesh, I will be here for awhile so I ask that you seal this chamber and leave, Eleanor will handle the rest. You can place a few guards you trust to the Doors outside other than that I should be fine." I said to the worried Elder, his face showing that he still has ma.s.sive doubts.
He has witnessed even True G.o.ds die in that pool of death, he just wanted to show off the majesty of the living metal not get his new son killed but even with all that said he still had to leave the room and as he did he saw his daughter enter the pool with her husband.
.....
This Chiladar Princess was a famous Sword G.o.ddess that was the youngest ever in history to undergo the living metal baptism. She is Sword G.o.ddess "Veronica".
She was opposed to marrying this c.o.c.ky young Emperor at first but upon meeting him for some reason she could not hold in her desires. Just like Hera, Veronica was once a aid he had trained back in his youth as a weak Void G.o.d under Verena"s protection. She much like Hera was one of the trusted Generals but as she had a shorter lifespan than others she spent most of it on battlefields when Verena was warlike or inside Verena"s bed. That was until she dedicated the remainder of her short life to serving a youth Verena brought back one day, that youth being young Dashnell.
"In this life I will once again serve you Dashnell but this time I will get to enjoy our time much more as I too can gain Immortality. When my memories of the past first started to surface after seeing Verena, why did you get so worked up? You don"t have to be jealous of her Dashnell is this body of mine not already yours? You even get to play with Verena whenever you want!" She said as she striped down naked and set on my lap face to face with me, she made sure that I entered her as she set down.
The one she thought was Verena was Teressa, it was just that Verena told everyone to shut up and let Veronica find out the cold truth as the bond between her and them strengthened. After that happened Verena was going to give her a beating and show her that she was still in charge.
This one unlike the others has better control over her emotions and mind, she blocked everyone including Verena from her mind unless they are having their now usual meetings. This affected all but me, this was done so no one but me could see that she was always putting up an act. She would show them the side of a proud warrior but once she was alone with me she became the dotting wife that made sure not even my cloths could harm me.
This overprotective woman and Eleanor quickly became best friends as they shared stories of my youth mentally as their bodies indulged in pleasing me inside the living metal water.
As time went by more and more of my wives would open the void and enter the chamber to bath in the living metal, they were not lying when calling it never ending the amount absorbed by the "few" hundred million beauties that came and went was nothing as it was still the same when I first entered it.
This metal will help my wives in getting stronger and provide a pa.s.sive defence that would only grow stronger with time, this will put my mind at ease a bit but even this won"t stop me from planning ahead.
