Chapter 228: Eternal Spire[R-18] (53)
A wide, circular space unfolded before us. The entire wall was made of transparent glass, offering a 360-degree view of the 7th floor's vast wasteland. Low clouds drifted above the horizon, and in the distance, I could even see the western wall where Lauren stood guard.
“You can see everything from here.”
Tia walked up to the glass wall, marveling at the sight.
In the center of the room was a large, round table, upon which a three-dimensional map of the entire 7th floor was projected. Small protrusions represented the varying elevations of the terrain, while blue light indicated rivers and lakes.
“This seems to be a rough map.”
“This will make exploring so much easier.”
She studied the map intently, pointing with her finger.
“The spire we’re in now is here… and I can see the western wall over there. That’s where Lauren is, right?”
“That’s right. It’s an incredibly accurate map.”
I slowly circled the map, examining it. Along the edge of the table were several control devices, some of which were made of translucent crystal.
“What are these devices for?”
I reached out and touched one of the crystals. The light on the map shifted, and the terrain changed slightly.
“Does it show the terrain according to the time?”
As I turned the crystal, I saw shadows move across the map. It seemed to be simulating the changing shadows cast by the sun over the course of a day.
“How fascinating. We can see which areas get dark at night and which are brighter during the day.”
“This map alone will be a huge help in understanding the entire 7th floor.”
I stepped away from the table to look around the rest of the room. Several small pillars stood near the glass wall, each displaying an item.
On one pillar lay an old scroll. I carefully picked it up and unrolled it. It was an ancient document about constellations.
Tia came to my side and looked at the scroll with me.
“These are the records of ancient astronomers.”
“But a lot of it is missing.”
“You’re right. A significant portion has been erased.”
I placed the scroll back where it was.
“It’s still amazing,” Tia said, looking up at the sky beyond the glass. “This is a building, a tower, yet the landscape is endlessly vast, and the sky looks just like the real thing.”
“Because it is real,” I replied, gazing out the window. “This place was made by the gods. It’s like another world.”
Tia looked up at the sky again.
“A world created by gods… It’s so magnificent it’s hard to believe.”
Leaving Tia to her admiration, I continued to survey the room. I slowly made a full circle, carefully examining the walls, the floor, and the pillars.
“Seo-yun, are you looking for something?” Tia asked, watching my movements.
“I’m looking for a box.”
I tapped one of the pillars with my fingertip. A heavy thud, like a mix of metal and stone, echoed back.
Then, I noticed a strange pattern on the floor.
I knelt on one knee and placed my palm flat against it. I could feel microscopic cracks and crevices, invisible to the naked eye.
A hidden compartment.
Using my sword, I carefully traced the pattern on the floor. A section of the floor slowly split open, revealing a small box inside.
“Just as I thought.”
I slowly opened the lid. Inside was a crystal, just like the ones I had given to Mila and Lauren.
“Seo-yun, what is that?”
“A Unique Ability Enhancement Crystal.”
I handed the crystal to her.
“This is too precious…”
“I gave one to Lauren and one to Mila. Now it’s your turn.”
Tia carefully took the crystal.
“Thank you… so much.”
“Go on, use it.”
“Okay.”
Tia cupped the crystal in both hands and crushed it in a single motion.
“Hnngh…”
Her body floated into the air. A blue light began to pulse beneath her skin, and her hair billowed as if caught in a wind. The very air around her changed. A powerful presence, completely different from before, radiated outwards.
[Unique Ability ‘Remnants of Tiamat’ has been enhanced.]
[Evolved into Unique Ability ‘Dragon God's Priestess’.]
The light slowly faded, and her body descended back to the ground. But it felt as if her very existence had changed.
I watched her quietly. Tia’s irises had transformed, resembling the eyes of a dragon, and faint, scale-like patterns appeared around them. Similar faint patterns also formed on her wrists and neck.
However—
Something’s wrong.
The aura she gave off was completely different. It felt as if another being was enveloping her.
“Tia.”
I called her name cautiously.
But the voice that answered was not her familiar one.
“Huhu, it has been a while.”
A strange, yet familiar, layered voice.
I narrowed my eyes and asked, “…Tiamat?”
Tia slowly walked toward me. No, the other being that had awakened within her approached me.
“Indeed. You have no idea… how much I wished to see you again.”
A chilling smile played on her lips.
“What did you do with Tia?”
Ignoring my glare, Tiamat answered with a relaxed expression.
“Do not worry. The child is safe. She is merely… accepting my power for a moment.”
She slowly raised a hand, and from her fingertips, a violet magical energy began to flow.
“And above all…” she said with a flick of her finger, “I am no mere remnant of memory. You will show some respect.”
“Don’t talk to me about respect. Not after you were moaning and getting pounded by my cock that day.”
Her face instantly flushed red at my words.
“Th-That was merely a clone, not me! It’s different from my true self!”
She sputtered out an excuse, but the blush on her face didn’t fade easily.
“And what about that mark you carved on my body like a stalker…?”
My words made her expression even more flustered.
“Th-That is… Yes! It is merely a symbol of our contract…”
Her voice trailed off. It seemed even a god couldn’t help feeling shame.
“What a pathetic excuse. You pervert.”
Tiamat’s eyes wavered for a moment. She seemed at a loss for words before quickly turning her head away.
“Are you pleading the fifth? I still remember you masturbating while carving that mark on my bo—mph!”
“St-Stop!!!”
She rushed forward and covered my mouth.
“When did I ever do such a thing!”
I licked the hand covering my mouth.
“Eek♡”
Tiamat snatched her hand back as if she’d been burned.
“Even your moans sound perverted.”
“Y-You…!”
Her face grew redder, and her breathing became ragged.
I smiled and took another step forward. She took a step back, but the wall was already behind her. There was nowhere left to retreat.
Tiamat’s body trembled slightly.
“Why are you trembling so much, O great Serpent Empress?”
“I… I am…”
My hand slowly traced its way up her back from her waist. Her body shuddered again, and a small moan escaped her lips.
“Hnngh…”
“You love it, don’t you? The moment the proud Serpent Empress submits to a mere human.”
“Hah…♡ Haah…♡”
“You really are a pervert.”
Drool trickled from the corner of Tiamat’s mouth as she panted like a degenerate.
“Ah… I… I must not succumb to such desires…”
Despite her words, her body pressed closer to mine. Her body heat radiated through Tia’s form, growing hotter by the second.
“My dignity… My pride…”
“What pride does a voyeuristic pervert like you have to protect?”
My hand squeezed her breast hard, and a sharp moan burst from Tiamat’s lips.
“Heek…♡”
“So? Should I use that pussy of yours after so long?”
As I spoke, gently stimulating her, a gush of her juices poured out.
“O-Oh…♡”
Tiamat tried to pull her hips back, her whole body trembling.
“Answer me.”
Tiamat’s body shook uncontrollably as she barely managed to speak.
“Use… me…”
“Then spread your pussy and beg for it. I’ll fuck you depending on how well you do.”
Tiamat’s eyes glistened with even more desire. Leaning against the wall, she slowly began to spread her legs.
“Please… violate my pussy…” she pleaded in a desperate voice. “Hah… hah… please, put your cock in this lewd goddess’s pussy…”
“Hmm, still not good enough.”
I stepped closer as I replied. Tiamat’s eyes overflowed with anticipation and lust. Her lips parted slightly, and her breathing grew heavier. I moved deliberately slowly, making her anxious.
“Please… hurry…” Tiamat whispered, begging. Her eyes were now completely consumed by desire.
“My, aren’t we eager.”
My mocking tone made Tiamat’s face flush even deeper.
“If you want it that badly, shouldn’t you first pay your respects to my cock?”
“Wh-What did you say…?”
Tiamat looked bewildered.
“Are you deaf? I said, greet my cock.”
Her eyes widened. She bit her lip for a moment, but soon, the last shred of pride in her eyes crumbled.
“H-Hello… Sir Cock…” Tiamat said in a barely audible whisper. Her face was now crimson with extreme shame.
“I can’t believe you actually did it.”
“I… I went this far…”
Watching her tremble with humiliation, I swayed my cock.
“Still not enough. Tell me in more detail what you want to do.”
“Th-That’s…”
“Tell me. Tell me just how perverted your thoughts are.”
Tiamat seemed to have reached her limit.
“Every night, I masturbated while watching you mate with other women…”
As her confession continued, her body trembled with even greater excitement.
“And?” I prompted, inducing another confession. Tiamat no longer hesitated.
“Watching them, I couldn’t bear it…. So I want you to use all of my holes… as you please…”
At that moment, Tiamat’s body suddenly went rigid. The look in her eyes changed in an instant.
“Ugh, what? You want your body back now?”
Tiamat’s voice had changed. It was as if she were talking to someone else.
“Tsk… You get to mate every day! As my priestess, you should learn to share!”
Tiamat’s body began to shake violently. Her irises flickered between gold and purple. A fierce battle seemed to be raging within her.
Tiamat’s expression contorted.
“Help me! Stop this child!”
Tiamat pleaded for my help, but it was too late. Her voice was already starting to fade.
“N-No…! I’ve waited so long for this moment…!”
A burst of purple energy erupted from her body before vanishing in an instant. Tia’s body went limp, falling into my arms.
