Chapter 52: Unrestrained Enthusiasm

"Oh no," I said as I looked over to find Messia in a heap on the ground.

This was my fault; I knew she was a worrywart, but come on. Was she some kind of medieval lady with an over-tightened corset?

I rushed over to her and scooped her head up into my arms. Messia didn't look hurt. Instead, she had just passed out from shock.

"Okay, girls. Can someone please tell me why Messia is acting like this?" I asked the three girls standing around us, but none of them were speaking.

"Looks like I wasn't very popular," Hilda said as she disappeared in a puff of smoke.

The girls all let out the breath they had been holding in, and I shook my head. You must have been quite the hot hand if you wouldn't even share your name.

'I have no excuses or clue to how I was or who, but you are most likely right from the reactions of these mortals,' Hilda said in my mind.

"Alright, the big bad Eel god is gone. Now, speak before Messia wakes up," I ordered the girls, and Miasma was the one that spoke up first.

"She wasn't mean, but her champion is something else, and he is still here. The Sky Eels think that they own the air and that everyone else is below them," Miasma explained.

"Yes, and they do not take kindly to other races using any of their things, so you might not want to tell people how your ship is powered," Miku said, pointing at the massive metal inverted honey drop.

"Okay, so they are pompous fools that live in the sky and think they are mini-gods. They also treat everyone like garbage, yes I can see why one might get excited to find that that certain asshole of an overlord god is now my helper, sus," I said, meaning my words to be heard by all parties involved.

*Poof!*

"I was that person, I am not anymore, and I can't make up for the person I was then, but I can try to do better now. Being that I was a pompous and arrogant fool, then I would have had to have an excellent reason for wanting to come back into this world as your helper. What is the reason? I have no idea, but I am not the god of this world anymore," Hilda buzzed as she reappeared, making the girls step back from Messia and me.

"Girls, enough. She cannot hurt you, so stop acting like frightened cats," I said to them as I put my other arms under Messia's legs.

I lifted Messia up as I stood and was pleased with myself. As the Queen, I wasn't allowed to open my own door, and I needed help with most things, so it was nice to know that I could still carry my princesses where I wanted.

The girls followed behind me, and Hilda buzzed off to my side as I walked under the massive upside-down golden teardrop. I reached the place directly under the hanging drip, but then I was somewhere else.

I was standing in a golden honey room that was big and open with a single flight of stairs that wrapped up the wall. I heard the girls talking behind me, and I turned to find them there, just as surprised as I was.

Messia stirred in my arms, and I looked down at her with a warm smile as her eyes slowly opened up. When they connected with mine, Messia's face turned beet red, and she started to struggle in my arms.

"My Queen! Ashia! You shouldn't be carrying me like this! What if someone saw you doing this? What would they think of you? What would they think of me?" Messia asked, looking like she was about to pass out again.

She sputtered and struggled, but I didn't let her go. Like I cared what people thought, and that didn't matter anyway because there was no one here to see us, so I silenced her with a kiss.

"I am the Queen, and I want to carry you!" I said in a tone that was final, and that only made Messia bury her face into my chest to hide her embarrassment.

Her warm face felt good and relaxing, and I started to let my mind wander to where else that face might feel good. The count of Miasma clearing her throat brought me back to the light of day, thankfully, kind of.

"Yes, let's take a look around! This will be a good open place to store things like this skunk waste when we go to transport the stuff," I said as I waved for the girls to follow.

"Do you think that I might be able to have a turn after, Messia?" Miasma asked as she walked beside me as I climbed the stairs, which made me smile.

"A what? Our Queen is not some ride to be ridden!" Messia complained.

I wanted to complain there and say that I was completely fine with getting ridden, but I decided to give Messia a break for a bit. I would see if Miku and Xani might want to try "Riding me" later.

"Yes, my little Mia, I will carry you after if you want," I said to Miasma with a big smile, but I got a predatory smile back from her that felt like she was stripping my coverings off with her eyes.

"No, It's okay. Messia is right; we shouldn't be riding you in public. I will just wait until we are tired later, then I will have my turn," Miasma said with a wink.

"Yes, please… I mean… oh fuck it. There is no one around but us, so yes, I want you, Miku, and Xani to ride me like a Nightmare!" I said with unrestrained enthusiasm.

"You want my daughters to do what to you?" Thiamon asked from the center of the room where we had appeared before, and I froze with eyes wide and the sudden appearance of not only Thiamon but also Tita.

"Don't ask questions that you don't want to know the answers to!" Tita said after slapping the back of Thiamon's head.
