Chapter 90 - I Was Deceived By A God - Part 1

"But that's impossible, right? I've given you Nature's gift of healing, you can heal yourself... Unless there's a problem with your soul or soul gems... I know you naturally have sacred energy, but my gift of nature would not conflict with your sacred gift of purification... So, there is no way your body is not well enough to fully receive the parallel memory"

Ailill said after he saw Emery in silence for a while, he couldn't even believe the human could be so weak that the parallel memories would absorb his soul.

"Can this kill me?"

"Well, yes… Of course, it can kill you, the memories can be too painful or too macabre shocking you and fading your soul! Oh, your mother did so much for you, but you still ended up like this..."

"What can I do to get rid of this parallel memory?" Emery asked apparently calm. Inside he felt anxious and a little angry at his bad luck.

He just tried to save the ML, okay?

How did he end up in this near-death situation so early?

When did he activate this flag?!

"There's no getting away from it, but as I'm curious to know what memory you'll get I can help you through the ordeal," Ailill said very gently, but Emery didn't feel better about it.

"What do you want in return?" Emery asked suspiciously, despite the beauty of the other party, he was living in a dark romance and beautiful things can be even more dangerous than they appear.

"I don't want anything right now. So you owe me a favor," Ailill said sounding very fair.

Emery felt a shiver seeing the friendly god toasting him with a smile, the man's beauty not helping to minimize the foreboding his words had caused.

"As long as it doesn't endanger my life, I can do anything," Emery replied even more sincerely than Ailill.

"Even if I want you to kill that Giovanni guy?" Ailill asked such a thing he saw with a gentle smile and a sweet voice.

"How do you know about Giovanni?"

Of course, Emery was surprised and went back to being even more cautious, would Ailill reveal his ill intentions?

"This is not important, I want to know your answer"

"No, I can't kill Giovanni"

"You can't... You didn't say you don't want to, but you can't... That's weird." Ailill was surprised by Emery's response.

He doesn't want to say that it's his will, but he can't mean that there is something that makes it impossible to do the act.

"I said I wouldn't do anything that would put my life at risk. Killing Giovanni would put my life at imminent risk," Emery said very seriously.

Don't play with him! Ah, kill the protagonist of the book? Isn't that looking for your own death?

"This..." Ailill still didn't understand the human's logic, he couldn't see how Giovanni's life was linked to Emery's life.

"Does not matter. Even if I told you, you would never understand," Emery said in a disdainful way to the god.

"Pfft! You looked a lot like your mother this time." Ailill laughed at the poor mortal's contemptuous way.

He was a god, what would he not understand?

"It doesn't matter, you can ask for something else but this. Also, don't ask me to kill any big BOSS, I'm weak and I can't keep that kind of crazy promise"

It was better to make things clear to such a god of nature, he didn't want to be put to some unreasonable request afterward.

"I get it, I get it, you're pretty mean to return favors, aren't you?" Ailill said helplessly. He might as well force his will on the mortal, but it wouldn't be interesting or fun.

"I'm just pretty realistic"

"Let's do it like this then... What can you offer me?"

"This... I have nothing now that I can offer, maybe in the future..."

"That won't do... How about you pay me with your body?"

Emery: (!!!)

"Don't look at me like that... Oh, you're thinking dirty things... Tsk, Tsk... Humans" Ailill seemed to be amused by Emery's slightly wary look.

"Forget it. We will settle our accounts in the future. I'm going to suppress this parallel memory as much as I can until your body recovers. I'll think about my reward later"

Ailill said as she watched the still wary human, they didn't have much time anyway the world around them seemed to break apart like a mirror, Emery looked at his own hand and saw it becoming more transparent.

"Well, let's try this first"

Ailill spoke, holding out his hands and green energy glowing in his palms and expanding everywhere creating a green wall of branches, vines, and leaves preventing the space from shattering into splinters.

"This should hold for a while"

"How much time?"

"About 100 years? I think at least 50 years... I know it's a short time, but it's the most I can do without hurting your weak soul." Ailill said helplessly, he looked at Emery who looked a little silly with his mouth a little open and a stunning look.

Emery: (...)

Dark BL characters are great BOSSES wherever you are!

"I think that will be enough for me to recover… Well, but I still want to know what's in the memory. Can you release it before the deadline?" Emery spoke as he recovered from the shock of meeting another great BOSS.

"It can be done... Let me see... Yes... Here I will leave my mark on your soul, right on your soul gem of nature, when you're ready just circulate the sacred power in mine mark and I'll know that I can appear for you and release the seal"

Green energy and an herbal scent surrounded Emery and entered him, moving so quickly that the young bishop only blinked a few times and the green light was gone.

"You can call me at any time...But remember, this will also be the time I want to call in the favor"

"What does that mean?" Emery asked feeling the phrase was odd, it felt more like a threat than a favor.

"It means I'm going to appear in person to collect my debts," Ailill said with a soft laugh, but to Emery, that sounded like a threat.

"This is not possible... The gods cannot descend to the mortal world so easily"

"I'm special, I'm all nature..." Ailill said in a way that sounded very confident as if he'd done it dozens of times before.

"I can't believe..." Emery tried to speak still incredulously with such pretentious declaration of the god of nature, if he was all nature the god of light wouldn't he be all light and could he be wherever he wanted?

This could only be nonsense!

There was something this nature god must have been hiding.

"Well now you must get back to your body before it's too late," Ailill said interrupting Emery's speech.

"Too late? What do you mean?" Emery was distracted by what Ailill said, suppressing his curiosity for a moment.

"I put a part of me in you now to make the mark on your soul's jewel, so I took a look at your body... Tsk... Tsk... Your body is very bad."

"It's too bad?" Emery asked worriedly, which made Ailill smile even more softly and even had a gentle look in his eyes, which made the young human shiver.

"The kind that will die at any moment," Ailill said with strange good humor.

"You..."

"It's time for you to come back... But I'll be watching a good show... Oh, but you won't remember anything for now, when your body properly recovers you'll remember me and our promise Ailill once again interrupted Emery to say nonsense.

What a good show?

Would he die when he woke up?

Emery was distracted and only came back to the present moment when he felt his lips being pressed by Ailill's soft, warm lips, the floral scent enveloped his senses, he felt the god's long fingers touching his face as his lips parted to receive the tongue of the divine being.

It was as if his whole body was under a spell, his tongue sliding over his mouth and rubbing all over the place until he hugged Ailill's body himself and deepened the kiss.

Emery couldn't think, if he could think he would be trembling in fear of this lecherous nature god who was influencing his body most assuredly with divine powers.

Well... Ailill was surprised by Emery's somewhat bold actions, he thought the wary human would be a beautiful lamb, too bad he had become a sneaky tiger.

Emery's hands went down Ailill's back causing a strange disturbance in his groin which was strangely hot and he felt a kind of butterflies in his stomach, well gods didn't feel that kind of thing.

Emery squeezed the two plump peaches in his big hand, startling the almighty nature god.

Ailill's idea was very simple, he would give the kiss of life so that Emery would return to his body before something worse happened, at the same time he wanted to provoke the cautious human so he could play with the kiss.

"Wait a minute... Hey... Emery..." Ailill said as he pulled away from Emery's mouth and tried to speak, only to be kissed once more.
