Goddess Soul-Entrapment
"Whew..."
Artemis had finally collapsed, unconscious after a series of climaxes that left her body trembling time and time again. After using my divine power to cleanse her of the lingering scent of semen and arousal, I laid her down and couldn't help but praise myself.
"Whew... If it weren't for me, things would have gotten really messy today."
It was true. If it had been any other man instead of me, he wouldn't have been able to stop at mere foreplay after seeing Artemis in such a state. Even I had nearly forgotten my objective and pinned her down right then and there, seeing the goddess look up at me as if asking for praise while still tasting my seed.
Honestly, I wanted to spread those noble legs wide open right now, take the maidenhead of a goddess that reeked of thick sandalwood, and make her writhe in the ecstasy of defilement.
To think that the arrogant, haughty goddess of high divinity was fawning over me like a whore, obeying me like a slave.
"If it were a god, they would have risked annihilation to have her, and if it were a hero, they would have tried to defile her again and again, even if it meant falling into the abyss for eternity."
How many times had I nearly crossed the line, watching her active caresses and the way she would temptingly hold my seed in her mouth and swallow it slowly every time I ejaculated?
"Yes, if I had wanted to take her, I could have done so long ago, but..."
I hadn't yet fully grasped how divine works or divinity functioned. And one of the major divine works Artemis held was that of the guardian of chaste women. She hadn't sworn an oath on the Styx like Athena, so nothing would happen if I took her today and completely corrupted her. But I didn't know what kind of repercussions would spread once that divine work was shattered, so I had no choice but to plan for the future.
'Not yet. Now is the time to lie low and wait.'
Artemis was a card far too useful to simply discard after satisfying my lust. It was a waste to use a goddess who could operate in the shadows of Olympus according to my will, merely as a tool for sexual gratification.
'Once the Lust Seal is completely fixed and her training is finished, I'll be able to take her entirely without having to be treated like a criminal...'
If that happened, even Zeus and Apollo wouldn't be able to question me, even if they were suspicious. By then, Artemis would be so addicted to me that she’d spread her legs whenever I wanted, regardless of her divine duties. Thinking of that time, I could easily endure the momentary urge.
"First, let's check the status of the Lust Seal... Wait?"
After I finished playing with Artemis and checked the seal, I couldn't help but be surprised.
"Huh, her energy is this depleted after just that much?"
I had poured a massive amount of my Divine Demonic Qi into the seal, yet after only about an hour of pleasure, the energy of the seal was down to a mere 20 percent.
"Hmph, is this the power of an Olympian goddess after all? If it were any other woman, even a master of the Hwa-gyeong realm would have fallen and become a slave who only craved my cock."
To think that such a massive amount of power was consumed just by paralyzing her reason slightly. As expected, the gods were opponents I couldn't afford to let my guard down against for even a second.
"I'll have to replenish her energy for now."
I thought it would be enough to just fill the seal, but it seemed I needed one more safety measure.
Soul-Entrapment Technique
-Hummm...
"Haa! Hyaak!"
As I placed my hand on her lower abdomen where the Lust Seal was located and poured in my Divine Demonic Qi, Artemis twitched and let out a small climax even in her unconscious state. Watching her body still obey my will, I slowly began to cast the Soul-Entrapment Technique on her mind through the energy flowing into the seal.
"Sleep and listen, your master commands..."
⟨ Soul-Entrapment ⟩
"Ugh, uung..."
'Success!'
It was worth the effort of training her subconscious to obey me and then exhausting her until she was limp. Normally, the subconscious would resist when interfered with by the Soul-Entrapment Technique, but her subconscious was already in my hands, and her divine power, which usually protected her, couldn't put up much of a fight because its owner was completely drained.
[You had a dream. You were toyed with by Dianes, but you resisted until the very end and fainted; in the end, Dianes could not defeat you.]
The memory of me turning her into a puppet with the Lust Seal would slowly sink beneath her subconscious according to my spell, and instead, Artemis would remember that she had overcome my caresses with her own strength.
"I look forward to next time."
If by any chance she doubted herself and looked back on her memories, it would all be for nothing. But those whose pride reached the heavens tended to never doubt their own victory and easily became arrogant. I couldn't help but look forward to the night of the full moon when she would be summoned again, arrogant, only to fawn over me and submit once more.
And it was time to achieve the true purpose for which I had begun to train and corrupt Artemis in earnest today.
[Deep-Seated Psychological Suggestion]
The strengthened Soul-Entrapment Technique dug deep into the unconscious of the unconscious Artemis, and began to carve my whispers and suggestions into the goddess's pure mind.
[Zeus has abandoned you. Your brother Apollo considers you insignificant.]
"Fa, Father...? Bro, Brother...?"
Even though I was planting suggestions deep in her subconscious, Artemis's divine power fluctuated, and her consciousness tried to surface, perhaps out of fear of making Zeus her enemy.
-Hummm!
"Hick?!"
But as soon as her consciousness tried to wake, the Lust Seal activated, binding her reason and dragging her back down. The wall of her mental state, which had tried to rise, crumbled under the pleasure that struck her entire body.
The suggestions continued.
[When your mother and you twins were being chased by Python, where was your father? When you were insulted by a mere human and your followers were perishing, what was your brother doing instead of saving you?]
[Your mother Leto always cherished only the golden sun god, and even your father Zeus treated you as nothing more than an accessory to Apollo.]
[Apollo and Zeus always said they cherished you, but they only watched, waiting for opportunities to seduce and rape the hunters you led.]
[If they truly cherished you, would they have done that?]
[You are merely a beautiful ornament to them, nothing more than the madam of a brothel.]
[You are just a well-trained pet dog that can offer up chaste, beautiful, and haughty huntresses to them whenever they want!]
[Whenever you resisted, didn't they crush you with their hierarchy and condone your rampages just so you could vent your misplaced anger?!]
"Ugh... ugh...!"
Hatred, doubt, and anger naturally bring about deepening and pain. Artemis groaned at the pain of that mental poison and resisted my suggestions, but those suggestions, a clever mix of fabrication and reality, slowly but surely dug into Artemis's mind.
'Good.'
I had designated where her hatred and anger should be directed, but if I ended it here, Artemis would be so full of hatred and anger that she would eventually take her own life or be annihilated. To prevent this and make her corruption even more certain, I had to twist the direction of her dependence, affection, and obedience toward her father and brother.
'Toward me.'
[But Dianes is different.]
[Even though you tried to kill him, he treated you with respect, and he gave you things that felt good, didn't he?]
[Who is the one who truly cherishes you and whom you should follow?]
[Zeus and Apollo, who use you like the owner of a brothel? Or Dianes, who taught you the joy and pleasure you never knew?]
[All men are ugly and hateful, like your father and brother. But isn't Dianes the only man who has cared only for your happiness and joy?]
[At first, he insulted you. But he is the man who even withdrew his curse once he was fairly defeated in a contest. You have no choice but to acknowledge it.]
"Ha... haa..."
Unlike hatred and anger, carnal desire and lust are accompanied by longing and craving. Originally, just seeing me, or even thinking of me, would have made her writhe in the pleasure carved into the Lust Seal. From now on, however, while that torturous pleasure would disappear, the joy and pleasure of obeying me from within her subconscious would melt her down and bring her to her knees.
'Now, every time Artemis sees her father and Apollo, she will writhe in inexplicable doubt and anger. Instead, to forget this, she will obey and depend on the pleasure I provide.'
To be certain until the end, I incessantly carved in her repulsion and hatred toward Zeus, Apollo, and other men. Instead, I poured in my Divine Demonic Qi, carving in her dependence and obedience toward me as joy.
How much time had passed like that?
By the time the Lust Seal was almost fully charged and the suggestions were becoming completely settled.
"Haaaa..."
With a face melted in sweetness, Artemis fell into a peaceful, deep sleep with a nasal sigh.
"Success!"
With this, Artemis would wait for my call every time the full moon rose. And I had obtained the trump card to deal with Olympus, that is, Zeus.
"Now it begins."
The sun and the moon. The most beautiful stars illuminating the world had fallen into my hands. I would use discord, antagonism, and hatred as firewood to set that great Olympus ablaze.
"The name of that fire is the flames of war. It is the fire of a war ignited by a demon sent from the heavens."
No matter who the winner is when that fire dies down, the Heavenly Demon of the Sura Realm will laugh aloud, using the war of the gods as a sacrifice.
"First, I need to check if the Soul-Entrapment Technique worked properly."
I activated the curse to hide the Lust Seal and awakened the consciousness of the sleeping Artemis.
"Ugh, ugh..."
"...Did you sleep well?"
In those eyes that had been melting moistly while fawning over me just a moment ago, bright blue flames soared once again.
