63 Mileuda & Tia Interlude

"Ugh, good to have a chance to sit back and relax." I leaned back on the tub. The door opened in walked Mileuda.

"Hi, just wanted to see how you were doing."

"Eh, could be better or worse. But I am good. Yourself?"

"Good." She said as she ran her hands in the water. "I want you to give Agria some slack." I raised an eyebrow at that. "She has worked really hard. You know this already. The sisterhood is unbelievably strong. Way stronger than what Galtea predicted they would be. She even we.. no never mind that part. She is frustrated about not convincing her cousin to come join us. But she knew it would be to hard anyway." Mileuda eyes flickered a little. "I dont want her here right now anyway. To many problems with us knowing how the Templars operate. We would not convince her successfully. The other one plan is going underway fine."

"Hmm, alright. However.. get in this tub or wait till I get out. Your hand on this water is driving me nuts." I thought about how I had a few women go and shadow the monastery that the princess would wind up at. Better to change that and have them watch her from afar or just befriend her.

"Oh, how so?" Mileuda gave me an evil smirk.

"Because the tub is big enough for two people for one. I can feel your hand considering I am focused on you right now. The water is just an extension of me." I said this lightly. I didn't want to be demanding considering my mood swings as of late.

"Very well." Mileuda stopped and gave my thigh a squeeze. "I will wait till you get out. I well go bathe in another room. Oh, and thank you."

"Hmm for what?" I was surprised. I hadn't done anything of note I thought.

"For agreeing to take me. As one of your women. Not take me take me." She was a little flustered. Hadn't seen that in a few days. "I am glad you havent regretted it. I know I havent."

"Oh, and how do you know I havent?" I mused a little after I said that. Thinking about it would be pointless I guess. I have not moved ahead much in that department since Sophia. 'Just thinking about her makes me feel wanted. Defintely like that feeling. Heh, I am turning into a putz.' Shaking my head I focused my attention back on Mileuda. She was becoming more attractive by the day. Weird how when you think of someone that way they become more appealing. I guess I started a little to long without saying anything.

Mileuda smirked and moved her hand in the water. She actually grabbed my hand and held it. "The way you look at me. From the bond as well. I know your darker thoughts. You havent acted on them. They are growing the more we mess with you. Glad you are able to resist." Her touch was warmer than the water, way more so than it should be I thought. The bond was amplifying my Pather power. She sent me a load of feelings on purpose. I became lost in them. It was better than a deep tissue massage but on an emotional level instead of physical. Coming to I felt the water was cold and she was walking away. She stopped at the door. "I promise it will be worth it in the end. Galtea knows what she is doing. Just trust them ok?"

Nodding my head like a parrot I agreed dumbfounded. She threw a face towel at my head. I stopped it with magic and used it to cover my face. "I hope so. I really do." I sunk a little in the tub and relaxed. I almost fell asleep until a knock at the door. "Go away. To tired to talk. Feeling to good to talk."

"Krrk," the door opened and in walked Mileuda's honor guard. "Chck," one of them locked the door. I was to relaxed to even remember their names. But the cold water didn't help my current state. I really liked cold water after a bit of time. Another weird habit I was told I had as a child.

"Lord Primarch, we have a request to make." I think it was the leader of the group that said it.

"Hurry up and name and then leave." I had the towel over my eyes so I really didnt see who was speaking. "Make it quick. You caught me at a bad time."

"Well.. please dont take lady Mileuda's chastity tonight." One of the mousy members said. She was the mechanic as far as I remember. Also the driver I think.

"Ok, done now go." I didnt want to get rude considering I didnt interact with them much. I mean the other me had, but not me personally.

"Thats it?"

"Yes now leave." I flicked my hand at them to go.

"Are you kidding me?"

"No. I am not. We weren't planning on doing anything like that tonight. Just talking and whatever else."

"I dont believe this? I cant believe this." The first one said. Then they all started talking again. The thing was a few sisters of battle yelling tends to sound like a stampede of deer. Slow and low at first, then deadly and loud. I could feel my nice little happiness going away.

"Get Out!" I yelled standing up. "The door. Leave now!" The just looked at me then their eyes travelled down to my groin. Two blushed one whistled. The other grabbed it and flicked it. "Oh for the love of.." I started to say before the door opened. One of them opened it and was actually leaving. The thing was..Tia and a few other squad members were walking by.

"What are you all doing!?" One of the squires yelled. They didnt keep walking. That would have been to easy. "Get out of there!" They were ready to fight. Why I had no idea.

"I give up." I flopped back into the tub soaking the one woman who thought it would be a good idea not to let go. "Ugh, Mental Cleansing." I cast the spell hoping this was just someone playing a trick on me. It was not. I watched as they all blinked and if realizing what was going on they walked away. A little embarrassed but they left.

"Roana come on." One of the honor guard said. The one holding onto me gave her a look I knew to well. The shut the hell up look.

"Bye Overlord, see you in your dreams." Roana said letting me go after a squeeze.

She caught up with the rest leaving me alone again. I was going to soak again then thought better of it. Removing the water after I dried off, I switched to some nightclothes and went to my room.

"Ah, sleep time." I relaxed onto the bed. The pillow was just perfect. A knock at the door caught me from resting again.

"Knock, knock," it was a low knock.

"Hey, you still up?" Mileuda asked coming into my room. I looked up to see her in shorts and a sports bra. "Heard what happened in the bathtub. Not my idea I assure you." She was hugging a pillow that she brought with her.

"Uh-huh, get on the bed already. You are way to distracting dressed like that. Did anybody see you? That is not enough clothing for this era." Realizing what I just said, I couldn't help but laugh. "Hehe, you know this better than I do. What the heck am I saying.?"

"I have gotten to use to the monastery. To hard to change back. Besides the clothing you made me, I can call it forth if anyone that I dont want to see me comes by." Sitting on the bed Mileuda stared at me. "Or do you not like what I am wearing?"

"Tch, you know dang well I do." I flipped the covers over and pulled her to me. "Get in here already."

"Of course." Settling in she leaned against me and sighed. "Ahh, I like this." She dropped her pillow behind her head and snuggled closer. "Promise we can do this a lot more?"

"Dont see why not." I agreed and started to drift off to sleep. "Wait.. weren't we suppose to talk about something?"

"Forget it. Another time." Mileuda said as she opened her mouth yawn. "Ahh, another time. Let's just sleep." I could feel my wolf was content. Very content at that. On instinct, I pulled her tighter and was completely out a few minutes later.

The next morning I woke up to an empty bed around 5:00. That was a little disappointing. I was not gonna do anything today so I got up clean myself off and got back into bed.

"Knock, knock," someone was already up at this hour. They opened the door despite me not telling them to come in. So I knew it was not official business.

"Sunstrider your still on bed!?" Tia said suprised. "I think you should get up."

"Already cleaned up. Just got back into bed is all. I have no real work to do that cant be put off till later."

"You cant be serious."

"Of course I am. The squads are patrolling keeping order and the people safe. The adventuring guild already has people going out doing work for us. Food is stocked already. Water is in large supply. The walls are strong. We have no trade set up because it is not needed. The laws are already written and enforced." I paused to see if I was forgetting anything. I was not. "What else do you want me to do?"

"Well.. your right. Guess there is nothing else to do till the scouts get back." Tia said defeated. She looked at me and started to fidget a little. "You are not going to laze about all day really though right?"

"Yes feel free to join me." I flipped over and put my arms under my pillow. Stretching my toes I popped my back. "Yeah definitely will." I closed my eyes and focused on checking on the other me's. They were fighting for the most part. Nothing to dangerous or important. My attention was brought back to the sounds of armor dropping.

"Thump, thump," the sound of wrist guards. "Chk, chk, swish," two buckles coming undone and a cape dropping. "Thunk," and a breastplate dropping. She kept the leg guards on. Cautious one. "Thump, thump," or maybe not.

"Hah, that feels better," Tia said sounding actually exhausted. I felt the bed dip just a little as she climbed up. She laid against my back. "We havent been like this since we were kids."

"Yeah, but it was the other way around as you read me stories. Especially after I taught you how to read." I pulled the memories of the me that was created here. It was easy considering the situation. "You became a very advent reader as I recall."

"Yup, and you always indulged me. That and taught me my swordsmanship when lady Beoulve thought it best I learn archery. Glad you spoke against it. I miss her so much. She kept the elder boys in line." Tia dropped her head on my neck. I could feel her breath on my ear.

"Aye, it was nice seeing them get into trouble. She is most likely rolling in her grave at the path her two stepchildren took. Let alone the one her actual children are taking." I thought about it a little more before dismissing it completely. "What are your future plans anyway?"

"What do you mean?" I felt her panic a little. "I am your bodyguard as well as your aide. I will stay by your side. I gave my word as a knight. Your knight " I didn't say anything to that. I felt her fingers tighten on my back. "It is because of those three isn't it?"

"No, I mean yes."

"Tietra is a commoner that you treat as an equal. I dont know how she is alive since all reports said she died months ago. She is way stronger and more confident than I remember her to be but she is still that gentle girl I remember."

"She did almost die back then. It took a lot to save her. As well as a lot to get her where she is now. She put in the work for it though."

"Then there is Mileuda. Another commoner that you treat as.. an equal but something more. Considering she was part of the Corpse Brigade I was surprised when you brought her back from your mission. Even more so with the way she looked at you. She may have not noticed but I did. She choose you for something. I know that it was to save the commoners now." Her grip tightened on my back. "Am important anymore?"

"Huh, of course, you are stupid." I couldn't help to want to yell at her. "I worked hard to make sure Barbaneth lived. Then I cut ties with him after he shielded his son after what he tried to do to you. Also what he did to the others as well. If you think you are not important to me.. then you my dear are stupid."

"Thank you." I felt her grip loosen just lightly. I really thought it would be a nice easy day. Her next words threw me for a loop. "When did you fall in love with the woman Agria?"

"Huh, what in the!?" I opened my eyes at that part. "I barely even know her that well. I mean dont get me wrong, I know her but dont know her know her. She has done a lot for me though. I just dont get why one minute she is understanding then the next she becomes standoffish. It is frustrating.. No just no it cant be."

"What is it?"

"Nothing to much of a problem to think about right now." I felt sluggish all of a sudden. "Just going to rest now." I went back to sleep. So did she. It didnt last past noon. I was brought out to the plaza by Mileuda. A few of the others were nearby.

"You are the man my sister wishes to marry?" Wiegarf said to me. His tone was not that pleasant. He didnt like I was a noble, despite all I accomplished. "I dont think you have what it takes to keep my sister safe."

The courtyard became quiet at that. This foolish little.. no I would keep my cool. This was Mileuda's brother. I couldn't just screw him over. Walking out I just put my fist up.

"Come at me with everything you have. Not just a little bit.. not just your max.. I mean every ounce of your power Wiegarf." I unleashed everything I had. He was a man of this world I could feel the power going to him already trying to protect him from me. "Come at me, bro. I will show you the strength of the man that has taken your sister from you." I felt the strands from my people. The most important one from Mileuda and Agria. Which was weird, thought she would have left to do something?"

Galtea: Fighting against a pillar will change things. The world is already aware of you. It has accepted to test you. Be careful.

"Very well," Wiegarf said coming at me with his sword drawn. When it came to me side I grabbed the blade. With a flex of my hand, I broke it. "Tch," he sneered at me.

"Fwoosh," my hand went right to his gut as let go with my other hand.

"Bam," the pressure caused him to spit up on me. I didnt move away from him as I stared him down. The world was giving him more power as his eyes lit up with raw magic.

"Hah," he swung his right fist and punched me in the face.

"How nice, my turn." I unleashed the rest of strength. I felt my Overlord power grow. Fighting in front of my vassals, showing them I was strong was the best way from them to grow as well as my self. "Overlord's Fury," I said coldly. Raw magic from the world tried to stop me. This would be the first time I fought head-on against the world I think. I could make easy by dropping the Auxilary field but no.

"Boom," my fist caught his face and I watched as the only thing that kept him alive was the world itself. The magic healed his body as soon as the blow struck. He slumped forward to his knees.

'That was easy Galtea. What is going on?'

Galtea: You fought on equal planes. The world removed your advantages while giving him some. Everything you have done here that was all taken into account.You are stronger than Wiegarf. You have passed. Good luck in the future.

'You are talking like you are going somewhere.' I dont know what she was thinking but she is not getting away that easy.

Galtea:.. Right we will need that luck for the future. Thank you.

Me and Galtea talked a little as I watch Wiegarf come to. He stood up on unsteady legs and looked at me.

"I am glad you are the one my sister chose," Wiegarf said to me. "I will not fight this.. however," standing up he came up to me. "What will you do now? Will you fight against everything that will come forward?"

My people all were looking at me. As well as the ones I thought should still be away. Or actually doing some work. Alistair had come forward and looked at me. He didn't even look me in the eye. That is when I felt it, the world sent me information about what he had been doing. He hadn't done anything in the last few weeks but stay near Alma.

"Sigh, we are going to get the blasted stones." I looked to Alistair. "That is going to be your job really. You get the banners and we seal the blasted stones away or destroy them. I dont really know or care. Your people's decision on that. If you fail.. I will kill you. And I will kill Alma."

"What?!" Alma said.

"You hear me right." I poke Alistair in the chest. "That is your job. Your mission. I dont care how you do it. Just do it. I have no idea why I didnt give you the assignment in the first place. All you care about is her. That is fine. Do it for her then."

"I will boss.. just." Alistair started to say before he gave me a hard stare. "I will get it done! I won't let them do this. No repeat of the past." Alma came over and gripped his hand.

"We will do this. Togethor." Alma looked at me defiantly. "You will not stop us cousin."

'For crist sake, this was all it took?' I said to Zelda. 'I am starting to hate her more and more. Oh well, time to leave anyway.'

'Yes, it is. I think it best to leave the twins here. They are both asleep and will be for a while. About three months or so. Perfect time to make them fully human and something important to this world here. Or just training them till they would like to go somewhere else. They are good girls. Well, young women. They are old, but not as old as me.' Zelda's voice was quite weird. 'I think we are ready to go.'

'Right..' I looked around the small town that was growing fast. It was growing fast but I had to place more of my own guards to do the patrols. My created ones would obey as long as I was stronger than them. I would keep an eye on that while changing back and forth. 'Galtea ready to go to Final Fantasy 10.'

Galtea: Change of plans. You are heading to a new world.

'What happened?' I asked with my shoulders dropping low. I had an idea somewhat but didnt want to believe it.

Galtea: Riku suggested you go somewhere else first. You need to go take your anger out somewhere else before you come to her world and do it harm. I agree with her on that as well. Besides, it will help your body with its problem and a good chance for your power to flex itself.
