Chapter 4: Wish...
The ground beneath his feet was soft and lush, covered in a carpet of iridescent moss that glowed faintly with each step he took. Ahead of him, a shimmering river flowed lazily, its waters sparkling with an inner light, reflecting the brilliance of the stars above.
Trees with silver bark and leaves of pure gold lined its banks, their branches swaying gently in an unseen breeze.
As he took in the beauty of this new world, Leon\'s attention was drawn to a figure standing by the river. She was the epitome of divine beauty, her presence radiating an aura of irresistible allure.
The Lust Goddess stood tall and graceful, her skin a flawless alabaster that seemed to glow from within. Her hair cascaded down her back in waves of shimmering silver, each strand catching the light and adding to her ethereal glow. Her eyes were a deep, hypnotic violet, framed by long, dark lashes, and her lips were full and inviting, a soft shade of rose.
She was clad in a flowing gown of translucent silk that clung to her perfect curves, leaving little to the imagination. The fabric shifted with her every movement, creating an almost hypnotic effect. Her every gesture was graceful, every smile intoxicating.
Despite her enchanting beauty, Leon remained indifferent. His eyes, which had seen so much pain and betrayal, were unyielding as they took in her form. He had loved Lucy deeply and had committed terrible acts in her name. No earthly or unearthly beauty could sway his resolve now.
Seeing his lack of reaction, the Lust Goddess raised an eyebrow in surprise, her smile faltering slightly. Leon\'s eyes squinted as he studied her, his mind racing with questions, but he chose to keep his thoughts to himself for the moment. He knew he had to understand where he was and why he had been brought to this place.
"Why am I here?" Leon\'s voice sliced through the air, devoid of warmth or curiosity.
\'Is this the person destined to be my lover?\' the Lust Goddess thought.
She had found a Divine treasure, the Elysian Nexus. Rumors of this treasure were passed down through generations of humans. It was said to make one a god or goddess, depending on their gender, and allow a glimpse of their future lover.
Located deep within the Enchanted Forest, shrouded in mist and legend, lay the Elysian Nexus. A crystalline treasure born from the cosmic dance of magic and nature.
Protected by ancient guardians and veiled by enchantments, it awaited those pure of heart and resolute in purpose. With the power to transcend mortal bounds, unite souls, and shape destinies, it called to champions brave enough to seek its hidden sanctum amidst the whispers of the woodland realm.
But all this was wrong. She had found it in a small dungeon, filled with weird succubi-like creatures.
She didn\'t know it was the legendary Elysian Nexus until her cultivation suddenly boosted beyond compare. She was granted divine powers, her specialty in lust, and then she saw Leon. Only then did she finally understand.
\'Tell him to make a wish,\' a voice whispered in her head, compelling her to speak.
"Do you have a wish?"
\'A wish?\' Leon recounted what happened before he died and smiled bitterly, "If I\'m to make a wish, then I wish to never be forced to kill a girl I love."
His voice was heavy with the emotions of killing Lucy. It was painful, but he never regretted it.
The Lust Goddess\'s eyes wavered with a hint of sorrow for him, strangely feeling his pain, but she said, "Wish granted..."
She spoke, following the commands of the voice whispering in her head since she found the Elysian Nexus.
Then, her eyes widened, feeling her life force plummeting rapidly. Her lifespan had increased after becoming a god, but she figured she could last a week at most.
The only way out was to fasten her relationship with Leon. "Please, I need your help..."
However, before the goddess could complete her words, Leon disappeared.
\'Weird, what is this strange feeling? It can\'t be that I\'ve fallen for her, can it?\'
After disappearing, Leon\'s consciousness awakened once again, but noticing something, he frowned.
\'Strange, why is this body weak?\'
