Jack pulled her back into his embrace, so he didn't have to continue looking on her.
[Damn...] Jack cursed, as he thought about the woman in his arms, [She's so damn pretty it hurts to look at her. Where the hell am I going to get water anyway...]
Jack thought for a moment, while Eris calmed herself. She looked up at the flaming eyes of her god and wondered what he was thinking about...
[Screw it.] Jack thought, as he mentally messaged, [Lucius are you up?]
[Augh... What time is it?]
[Like... one at night.]
[That's all? I've rested too long at my desk, but I'm up. What do you need, my Lord?] Lucius asked.
[I need to bathe my pe- Forget what I was about to say... Do you have a room prepared for the Vampire Princess?]
[Of course! The best.]
[Have servants prepare a basin of water for a bath. She seemed to wish to be bathed, and... You know... Prepare a basin of holy water as well... I want to know something.]
[My lord, are you sure? Holy water is more poisonous to Vampires than to Undead, and you already know how it affects us!]
[I know the risks... I just wish to see.]
[A whole basin... I could get a small cup...] Lucius advised, as in his mind, if the Vampire Princess just tripped into it... He shuddered the thought.
[Trust me.]
[As you wish my Lord.]
[Send someone to guide me to the room, I have the Vampire Princess with me, in the Ward.]
[Of course. I shall have them here soon.]
Jack felt the connect break, as he looked back down at the woman he was holding.
"Are you going to tell me why you shed tears?" Jack asked again, but he only saw the crazed smile of Eris reflected back.
[I guess not...]
As he was about to ask a second question, he heard behind him a rattling of a skeletal undead.
Jack turned around, as he looked at a skeletal undead priest on his knees, "Go-God-God-King, your ser-serv-vant is-is here to ga-guide you."
"..." Jack was not amused by the fear displayed by this priest.
Eris was laughing at this priest's reaction, as she was kicking her legs up and down in Jack's arms animatedly.
"What's your name?" Jack asked casually, but to the young priest on the floor kneeling, it sounded like thunder ringing in his skull.
"Ja-Jasper, my Lord." The young priest squeezed out.
"Do you have a Title?" Jack asked as he knew undead were big on Titles.
"Ah, y-yes! Priest Jasper!"
"You do not have to fear me, Priest Jasper."
"Y-yes, my Lord. I will show you the way now." Jasper kept his head down, as he hesitantly got to his feet, and walked into the hall to lead the God-King.
Jack silently floated behind him, while carrying Eris.
Through the corridors, it was a short walk for them, as they approached a very familiar room.
[Wasn't this Emily's old room?] Jack wondered as it was indeed her old room when she was still known as Princess Ambassador Emily.
"Thank you, young Priest Jasper... Is there anything you pray for?" Jack thanked him and then thought of something from earlier.
"Ah... How... How could I pray for something...?"
"I know better. Now speak." The God-King commanded, as Eris no longer laughed and wanted to know what would happen with great interest.
"I... I wish to be more confidant." Jasper whispered.
"I see... Pray before me."
Jasper kneeled and prayed in the way that he was taught within the pages of the Lexos Divinus Sanctus.
Jack watched as a small thread of power formed and flowed from the Back of Jasper and enter into himself.
He then waited a moment and let go of his control of the voices in his mind, and soon after heard a voice like Jasper.
[I-I pray to be more confidant... I also pray for the hand of Handmaiden Leona.]
[...This young undead has more than one prayer, and the cheeky thing had the gall to not admit it to my face... Very well.]
Jack waved his hand in front of Jasper, with his intention to give more confidence to Jasper. He didn't know if this would work or not; it was just another test to see how this new power he used worked without spells.
A small bead of light fell from Jack's hand and entered into Jasper.
Jasper felt a warm surge into his soul space and wrap his soul. It soon increased his cultivation by a whole stage! He was now a Grandmaster Ranked Cultivator! Just like that!!!
"My Lord! You have blessed me?"
"You have my blessing, so you now have confidence. Use this confidence to speak to Handmaiden Leona... If she is willing, then you have my blessing as well. If she is willing, but isn't able to because of other issues... Both of you can request my presence through the Grand Minister..."
"Ah... Ah... YES! YES, MY GOD-KING!" Jasper threw himself on the floor in prostrate.
The Young priest lept to his feet and dashed away down the corridors. While Jack watched this comical exit, he checked within his mind and found the voice of Jasper was quiet. If he wanted to know about Jasper, he could still connect to it, but it didn't actively voice its prayer.
[I'm certain... To control this God-Power, I have to answer prayers, or have the people pray without asking for anything in return." Jack nodded.
As with a small wave of his hand, the door opened, and he walked in, with a dazed Eris. She had watched the whole exchange, and while she had no idea who Leona was... She could tell that her god didn't know her, until the moment that priest prayed... This reconfirmed her own choices!
Jack looked into the large room, and it was clean.
[Oh, my me! Lucius you mad undead!] Jack looked at two basins of water. Once was fine, but the other had a large gold "X" painted on the side.
[Hahaha, I take it that's the one with holy water.] Jack laughed within his mind.
He walked over to the evening tomb and laid the nude Eris inside.
Jack pulled his large chair over, which was still left from where Emily occupied the room and sat.
"Alright... I've catered to you enough. Now speak up. Why are you here? Why do you call yourself my pet? Lastly, why do you want me to be the one to bathe you?"
Jack asked rapid-fire questions.
Eris looked into Jack's flaming eyes, as her hand disappeared below the lip of the evening tomb.
Jack mentally frowned at her silence...
"You were very verbal this afternoon. So, why are you so quite now? Speak woman, or I will abandon you like a kitten."
"No! NOOO!" Eris attempted to climb out of the evening tomb, as Jack waved his hand. She slipped back into the tomb.
"Then answer me."
"Anything..." Eris said while licking her lips while watching Jack...
"Anything you want... Just don't abandon your pet."
"Then what I want is for you to answer my questions, or abandonment is what you get."
"...Alright..." Eris sighed and drew in a breath.
"My name is Eris Von Deadhart of the Sanguinary Empire, daughter of the current Blood Emperor, Blood Emperor Deadhart." Eris paused as she was telling, looking for praise.
Jack remained silent, and so Eris pouted a bit before continuing, "I came for you, my god. My mother told me my god will feed me... So, here I am."
"Who is your mother, and why are you my pet?"
"My mother... My mother is Hannah Jawreaver. She was a famous adventure, explorer, and archeologist."
Jack could hear the sadness in her tone... Something had happened to her mother.
[Adventurer, and with a sad tone... She died during one of her digs or is trapped by some crazy ruins... Well, or died from being trapped in one of her digs.] Jack mulled over the classics in his last world.
"Why did she tell you to seek me out to feed you."
"She... Well... She found..."
"Wait... Can I finish this."
Eris looked perplexed while looking at her god... Didn't he want her to explain, but she bit her tongue with pleasure, anyway.
"Your mother found some old ruins and explored it as usual. She found a prophecy about a God of Light, and you needed me. These ruins trapped her, where she passed on... Am I right?"
Tears formed at the corners of Eris' eyes, "How... How did you know?" She couldn't help but ask.
"Just a lucky guess." Jack sat a bit straighter, hoping she wouldn't cry again... Enduring it last time was a bit tough for him.
"Lucky? Then did you know I was trapped with her???" Eris pressed on and asked in expectation.
"This... This I did not guess." Jack admitted.
"Oh..." She slid back into the tomb.
"If it's too painful to talk about, I can talk to you tomorrow." Jack rose to leave.
"I... But... Don't leave... I want a bath." Eris sounded spoiled.
Jack looked back over his shoulder, where he was about to float out, and found he couldn't dodge the bullet.
"Fine... I have an experiment I want to carry out. Climb out of the evening tomb and come over to the basins of water... Don't touch either."
Eris complied, as she crawled out, and over to the basins on her hands and knees. She looked up to her god with expectations.
"Take your pinky finger and dip it into the basin on your left," Jack commanded, as this was the basin with the Holy Water.
Eris, without resistance, did so.
Jack waited, and nothing happened.
[Hmmmm? Is it like I thought?]
"Do this for the other basin."
Eris took her hand out and used her other hand to do the same... No reaction.
[As I expected... How mysterious.]
"Eris do you know about Holy Water?"
"Of course... Deadly." Eris said shortly.
"You just put your pinky into a base of it," Jack said with a light laugh.
"What?"
Jack stood up and actually walked over to the basin with the gold "X," and pointed down at the water.
"This is Holy Water. Watch." Jack slipped his hand into the water, and the water boiled around his bones.
"Ah!"
"See." Jack kept his hand submerged until the water came to a rolling boil.
"I do! But... Doesn't that hurt?"
"I'm a God of Holy Light... Holy... Holy Water... It doesn't hurt me. It boils, I suspect because I am still undead, but that's just a theory of mine."
"See if it will hurt you," Jack asked while leaning over the basin. Eris didn't hesitate as she submerged her hold hand and arm into the basin.
"It's really hot!" She kept her hand and arm in the water, as it turned red like a lobster."
"Wait... Pull your hand out as well." Jack pulled out his hand, and commanded Eris to wait. He waited until the water was no longer boiling. He remembered watching Holy Water do this before when he got his baths.
The Holy Water was now still.
"Try it now."
Eris slipped her hand into the water, with no reaction like before, but now she spoke, "It's lukewarm, now... Why?"
"I'll have to do more testing, but I'm sure it has something to do with me, than with you."
Eris nodded only understanding a bit.
"Now, do you want to bathe in Holy Water as I do, or do you want to bathe in the plain water?"
"Holy Water!"
Eris jumped into the water, splashing a bit of the water over the sides.
[I'm damn glad no other undead were around.] Jack signed.
Jack decided to take care of this crazy woman, for now, he grabbed a smaller bucket and dipped it into the water. Bringing it over her head, he dumped it onto Eris, who laughed, while enjoying the attention. Jack watched her reactions, but found she wasn't childish acting, but... oddly seductive... Was this a ploy?
Jack looked to the side, and grabbed a linen cloth, and proceeded to wipe her down.
He dipped it into the Holy Water and started with her face. He paused at her lips, as he used his thumb bone to lift her lip a little at the corner to look at her gold fangs before he continued. Eris didn't fight Jack in the slightest and only enjoyed herself greatly.
Jack then cleaned her upper body and then her lower... Eris would moan when Jack would touch or wash certain places... But he paid no special attention to what he was doing, but only cleaning... Using massive amounts of concentration on his part.
Jack was about to finish, she Eris grabbed onto his hand that he was pulling back.
"You didn't clean everywhere..." She looked up to Jack with expectation.
*******
Jack put Eris back into the evening tomb. "There are robes in the wardrobe. I expect you to wear them until We get your clothing situation fixed. Good night Eris."
Jack quickly turned and left as fast as he could. It was almost as if he walked through the door of her room, as Leslie would...
Eris smiled at his reaction as he left, as she thought, [My god is funny but too smart... Haaaa~ Let me enjoy his attention for just a bit more before he learns I know better...] Eris feeling much better than when she was starving, clicked the lid to the evening tomb, and began to entertain herself while thinking of her god.
*******
Jack wasn't sure how he had gotten to his room so quickly, but the door swung open wide, and he floated into his chamber.
"Welcome b-" Leslie wasn't able to finish her words before Jack had zipped into his tomb and popped the mechanism on the tomb to close.
"So eager?" Leslie asked as she felt a probing to her soul.
"Very..."
"Of course!" Leslie allowed Jack into her soul space.
Many pleasurable hours passed quickly as Jack played with Leslie's soul to his heart's content!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Jack pulled her back into his embrace, so he didn't have to continue looking on her.
[Damn...] Jack cursed, as he thought about the woman in his arms, [She's so damn pretty it hurts to look at her. Where the hell am I going to get water anyway...]

Lastly, why do you want me to be the one to bathe you?"Jack asked rapid-fire questions.Eris looked into Jack's flaming eyes, as her hand disappeared below the lip of the evening tomb.Jack mentally frowned at her silence..."You were very verbal this afternoon. So, why are you so quite now? Speak woman, or I will abandon you like a kitten.""No! NOOO!" Eris attempted to climb out of the evening tomb, as Jack waved his hand. She slipped back into the tomb."Then answer me.""Anything..." Eris said while licking her lips while watching Jack..."Anything you want... Just don't abandon your pet.""Then what I want is for you to answer my questions, or abandonment is what you get.""...Alright..." Eris sighed and drew in a breath."My name is Eris Von Deadhart of the Sanguinary Empire, daughter of the current Blood Emperor, Blood Emperor Deadhart." Eris paused as she was telling, looking for praise.Jack remained silent, and so Eris pouted a bit before continuing, "I came for you, my god. My mother told me my god will feed me... So, here I am.""Who is your mother, and why are you my pet?""My mother... My mother is Hannah Jawreaver. She was a famous adventure, explorer, and archeologist."Jack could hear the sadness in her tone... Something had happened to her mother.Adventurer, and with a sad tone... She died during one of her digs or is trapped by some crazy ruins... Well, or died from being trapped in one of her digs. Jack mulled over the classics in his last world."Why did she tell you to seek me out to feed you.""She... Well... She found...""Wait... Can I finish this."Eris looked perplexed while looking at her god... Didn't he want her to explain, but she bit her tongue with pleasure, anyway."Your mother found some old ruins and explored it as usual. She found a prophecy about a God of Light, and you needed me. These ruins trapped her, where she passed on... Am I right?"Tears formed at the corners of Eris' eyes, "How... How did you know?" She couldn't help but ask."Just a lucky guess." Jack sat a bit straighter, hoping she wouldn't cry again... Enduring it last time was a bit tough for him."Lucky? Then did you know I was trapped with her???" Eris pressed on and asked in expectation."This... This I did not guess." Jack admitted."Oh..." She slid back into the tomb."If it's too painful to talk about, I can talk to you tomorrow." Jack rose to leave."I... But... Don't leave... I want a bath." Eris sounded spoiled.Jack looked back over his shoulder, where he was about to float out, and found he couldn't dodge the bullet."Fine... I have an experiment I want to carry out. Climb out of the evening tomb and come over to the basins of water... Don't touch either."Eris complied, as she crawled out, and over to the basins on her hands and knees. She looked up to her god with expectations."Take your pinky finger and dip it into the basin on your left," Jack commanded, as this was the basin with the Holy Water.Eris, without resistance, did so.Jack waited, and nothing happened.Hmmmm? Is it like I thought?"Do this for the other basin."Eris took her hand out and used her other hand to do the same... No reaction.As I expected... How mysterious."Eris do you know about Holy Water?""Of course... Deadly." Eris said shortly."You just put your pinky into a base of it," Jack said with a light laugh."What?"Jack stood up and actually walked over to the basin with the gold "X," and pointed down at the water."This is Holy Water. Watch." Jack slipped his hand into the water, and the water boiled around his bones."Ah!""See." Jack kept his hand submerged until the water came to a rolling boil."I do! But... Doesn't that hurt?""I'm a God of Holy Light... Holy... Holy Water... It doesn't hurt me. It boils, I suspect because I am still undead, but that's just a theory of mine.""See if it will hurt you," Jack asked while leaning over the basin. Eris didn't hesitate as she submerged her hold hand and arm into the basin."It's really hot!" She kept her hand and arm in the water, as it turned red like a lobster.""Wait... Pull your hand out as well." Jack pulled out his hand, and commanded Eris to wait. He waited until the water was no longer boiling. He remembered watching Holy Water do this before when he got his baths.The Holy Water was now still."Try it now."Eris slipped her hand into the water, with no reaction like before, but now she spoke, "It's lukewarm, now... Why?""I'll have to do more testing, but I'm sure it has something to do with me, than with you."Eris nodded only understanding a bit."Now, do you want to bathe in Holy Water as I do, or do you want to bathe in the plain water?""Holy Water!"Eris jumped into the water, splashing a bit of the water over the sides.I'm damn glad no other undead were around. Jack signed.Jack decided to take care of this crazy woman, for now, he grabbed a smaller bucket and dipped it into the water. Bringing it over her head, he dumped it onto Eris, who laughed, while enjoying the attention. Jack watched her reactions, but found she wasn't childish acting, but... oddly seductive... Was this a ploy?Jack looked to the side, and grabbed a linen cloth, and proceeded to wipe her down.He dipped it into the Holy Water and started with her face. He paused at her lips, as he used his thumb bone to lift her lip a little at the corner to look at her gold fangs before he continued. Eris didn't fight Jack in the slightest and only enjoyed herself greatly.Jack then cleaned her upper body and then her lower... Eris would moan when Jack would touch or wash certain places... But he paid no special attention to what he was doing, but only cleaning... Using massive amounts of concentration on his part.Jack was about to finish, she Eris grabbed onto his hand that he was pulling back."You didn't clean everywhere..." She looked up to Jack with expectation.*******Jack put Eris back into the evening tomb. "There are robes in the wardrobe. I expect you to wear them until We get your clothing situation fixed. Good night Eris."Jack quickly turned and left as fast as he could. It was almost as if he walked through the door of her room, as Leslie would...Eris smiled at his reaction as he left, as she thought, My god is funny but too smart... Haaaa~ Let me enjoy his attention for just a bit more before he learns I know better... Eris feeling much better than when she was starving, clicked the lid to the evening tomb, and began to entertain herself while thinking of her god.*******Jack wasn't sure how he had gotten to his room so quickly, but the door swung open wide, and he floated into his chamber."Welcome b-" Leslie wasn't able to finish her words before Jack had zipped into his tomb and popped the mechanism on the tomb to close."So eager?" Leslie asked as she felt a probing to her soul."Very...""Of course!" Leslie allowed Jack into her soul space.Many pleasurable hours passed quickly as Jack played with Leslie's soul to his heart's content!
