Training with a King

   Edward was stunned. He was told the Goddess was there, but he did not know that she would have an actual physical form. When he learned of her identity he immediately knelt down. "Goddess, it is an honor to meet the real you." Edward said. "I am Edward, I suppose I am the former King of Alavast."

   Vanessa looked Edward over and sniffed him. "You smell like Rina!" She said cheerfully. "Are you staying with her?" Vanessa asked.

   "Yes, Goddess." Edward answered. "I am staying with Sabrina. I hope that this does not offend you in any way."

 "Offend me?" Vanessa was puzzled. "I am not offended! Just try your best to make me some babies!" Vanessa smiled giving Edward a thumbs up.

 "Goddess!" Sabrina yelled. "It's too early to be talking about babies with him!" Sabrina scolded the Goddess.

 Edward turned as red as a beat. "Babies? What!?" He was taken back by Vanessa's comment.

 "Oh, it's easy to have babies!" Vanessa explained. "All you have to do is take your…"

 "Goddess!!!" Sabrina yelled at the top of her lungs. "I am quite sure he knows where babies come from!"

 "Oh, okay then!" Vanessa smiles. "Make sure you make me some, ok Eddy? I haven't had any luck out of getting babies from Sir Knight. So make sure you make lots of babies with Rina!" With that Vanessa smiled and walked back into the forest.

 Edward was still blushing, "She is quite the character that Goddess. I can't believe she just bluntly asked me to lay with Miss Sabrina like that. I mean that would be…"

 "Calm down Kingy." Sabrina interrupted. "Don't let her get to you. She just wants to see a half human half demon baby." She explained. "Besides even if we did have sex, we demons are not easy to knock up. We have purposefully lowered our reproductive rate, so babies aren't something you need to concern yourself with at this time. Only one in the village that could easily get pregnant is Mia, and I am pretty sure either she or Lucell would kill you if you tried something on her. He seems rather protective of her." Sabrina smiled. "Now enough talk about babies! You need to teach Mia some things now, Kingy. Show us what you got."

 "Right." Edward collected himself. "So, Miss Mia, are you aware of anything about the Kingdom of Alavast?"

 "Not really." Mia answered. "I was pretty much doing constant combat training; the church didn't really teach me much else."

 "No, I suppose they wouldn't have." The King sighed. "Within our kingdom there is the monarchy, that's me. There is the nobility, who are the lords of the local townships. There is also the Church. Now the Church has complete power in the Kingdom, they have a long line of people who could speak with what they believed to be the Goddess, and have wormed their way into the top of the Kingdom because of it." The King paused for a moment. "They have completely ruined the Kingdom. Creating laws that devalue women, basically turning them into slaves. They also do strange experiments, like the aging curse they apply to heroes and the soul extraction that they use to forge weapons. I was powerless to stop any of it. The church gave the nobility everything they wanted and shut me out of my own Kingdom. The only thing I had left was the Royal Army, now that too has been taken by the church."

 "That's all so tragic." Mia said. "I didn't know about any of it until I met the Goddess and the Demons, but the Queen explained most of this to me already."

 "Oh so you do know some things." Edward replied. "If you were to take back the Kingdom it would not be enough. I was the King and I could not do anything."

 "So what do I need to do?" Mia asked.

 "First you need to seek alliances with the neighboring Kingdoms." Edward explained. "If they do not view your rule as legitimate, it will be very short lived. Next you will need to deal with the nobles, either get them on your side or eliminate them all together. After you do those things word of you should spread throughout the Kingdom. People should then start to flock to you, that's when you can take the castle back. Once the people accept that you are the one with the Goddess on your side and not the church; that is when you will have achieved victory."

 "So what Kingdom should I go to first?" Mia asked.

 "I would recommend a bit more training before you enter a noble court." The king explained. "You do not know how to conduct yourself like a lady, and that could cause you problems securing an alliance." He paused for a moment. "After you can behave in a manner that suits a ruler however; I would recommend that you visit the Ocean side Kingdom of Atlan. They have always been our most trusted friends and the church has little influence in that Kingdom."

 "Okay." Mia answered. "Please teach me how to be a lady!" She smiled.

 "Alright first things first." Edward started. "You have to not expose yourself. So I could stay away from short skirts. When meeting with nobility it is important that you are wearing a dress that descends all the way down to your ankles and covers as much skin as possible."

 "So hard to fight in those long dresses!" Mia complained. "And they are hot."

 "Nevertheless you are a lady now and need to act accordingly." Edward explained. "Besides you are going to those Kingdoms to make peace, not to engage in combat. You do not need to be able to fight with your legs, you must fight with your words."

 "Kicking normally works better." Mia explained. "Sabrina taught me that."

 Sabrina nodded in agreement. "Words can fail you, but a swift kick to the nads always works."

 "There is no kicking!" Edward shouted. "If you resort to violence you will be labeled a barbarian and shunned by the court. You will have no chance of gaining favor. Look Mia, you have a powerful weapon. You are beautiful beyond words. That alone will get you pretty far in negotiations. At least it will in the other Kingdoms, Alavast would probably have you confined as some man's plaything within the day. Makes me sick."

 "Oh that I know about." Mia explained. "My first night as a woman, so many men tried to force themselves on me. It was horrifying."

 "I am sorry you were made to experience that." Edward apologized. "If only I could have been able to rule my own Kingdom, you never would have had to experience such a nightmare." There was a long awkward silence before Lucell spoke up.

 "I believe this is enough training for one day." Lucell said. "I would not want Miss Mia to be overloaded. Let us all retire for the evening. Miss Mia and I are headed to the bathhouse, then we shall have dinner and return to home."

 "Oh was that an invite?" Sabrina teased. "You wouldn't have told us all your plans if you didn't want to invite us."

 "You may accompany Miss Mia and I, if that is what you desire." Lucell explained. All four of them made their way to the bathhouse. Upon arrival they all stripped and got in the bath, Edward and Lucell both wore their towels, however Sabrina and Mia did not. Mia never wore a towel, she felt as if they constricted her in the bath and she wanted to feel free. Sabrina did not wear one because she thought it would be funny to torment Edward.

 "You ladies should really consider covering yourself up." Edward said while trying to hide his current problem.

 "Oh, does our nakedness bother you Kingy?" Sabrina teased. "I couldn't let Mia be the only one naked. It would be weird."

 "No this is weird!" Edward shouted. "Please consider covering yourself ladies!"

 "You can't let them get to you." Lucell told Edward. "Miss Mia and I have bathed here every day together and we have had no issues."

 "Can't let them get to you huh?" Sabrina teased as she made her way over to Lucell. She got out of the water and leaned her naked form on Lucell's shoulder. "Say Lucy, you want me to use my breast to wash your back?" She said with a wink.

 "What?!" Mia shouted. "You can use these for that?!" She said while grabbing her breasts. "Let me try too, Lucy."

 With that offer Lucell couldn't handle it anymore. "I believe I am done bathing." He said as he got up revealing quite a large tent in his towel. "I will be taking my leave now. I will be waiting for you at the exit."

 "Ah but Lucy!" Mia complained. "You just got in the bath and if you leave I have to leave! Remember?!"

 "Oh right." He said as he sat back down. "I must stay and protect Miss Mia. I am sorry I forgot my duty."

 "It's ok, now let me try washing your back like this!" Mia said as she jumped on his back. "Oh they do work like big sponges!"

 At this point Sabrina doubles over from laughing. "You go Mia. This is priceless!" She said as she laughed. "I guess I should do the same for my man. Come here Kingy." Sabrina then jumped on Edwards back and began to do the same. Edward passed out and sank into the water. "Kingy?! Kingy?!" Sabrina yelled.
