Chapter 112
Noboru woke for the first time in his life since he had his powers unlocked. He felt drained, and it wasn't in his weaker life as Noboru Chikara, but in the past life he was currently living when he was just Noboru. Right now, he was just Noboru. He couldn't access his Gensogan or any ability from the Chikara clan, but he still felt more powerful than ever before. He then looked at his left arm to see a naked Yami, the woman he was meant to kill as part of the story trial, who was his concubine, hugging his left arm. He was right about her—she wasn't some evil villain. She was hurt when whatever happened, happened, which made him reincarnate, and her grief forced her to expand the void endlessly, devouring all forms of infinities.
Noboru then looked to the right, and what he saw made his heart beat faster than the concept of speed ever could define. Ayame Akatsuki—his wife in her glorious, beautiful form. No, using such descriptions was offensive. She was so beautiful that if a lower being saw her like this, they would die from being mesmerized, unable to process her form. Her beauty was beyond description, so much so that even embodiments of beauty itself paled in comparison.
Noboru then looked between his legs. Curled up was Ayumi, the first Neko, his other concubine. She was the template from which all Nekos were derived and outclassed any Neko in every way. No Neko could stand up to her. Noboru didn't know much about her, and they weren't keen on giving any details that the present Ayame hadn't given Noboru Chikara. Noboru understood, though. It made sense—they didn't want to cause anything that might have a negative effect. Plus, Noboru trusted Ayame. Both of them.
Noboru then felt Ayame move her hand up and down his abs and chest.
"So satisfied, my husband? This was the best night we have ever had, wasn't it?" she whispered in his ear, causing a shiver of pleasure to run through him.
"I... I guess. It was definitely the most tiring," Noboru replied. He'd never been this tired before, but it was a pleasant kind of tired. He felt like he'd done a full day's training, but his body was relaxed and content rather than aching.
"Mmmm, indeed. You've certainly earned some rest," Ayame purred, kissing him on the cheek.
Noboru nodded. "What time is it?"
"Oh, I'd say it's about ten," Ayame replied, glancing at the clock on the wall. As Noboru's mind wandered, he couldn't help but want to know the answer to a question.
"Hey, Ayame-chan, I have a question. Can you explain why... why my current parents are warring?" Noboru asked as Ayame sighed.
Ayame thought about it. Noboru needed to know. He needed to know why the war started. Maybe he could end it. Ayame didn't want to worry about fighting and being hunted by heaven. She wanted to have a happy life with Noboru and the rest of the concubines, to have children, for his concubines to have children, to raise and spoil them. She decided she would tell Noboru, consequences be damned.
"Fine, Noboru-kun, but this is going to be pretty complicated. Before I start, you need to know the concepts of dualities, otherwise known as binary oppositions. They are a system of balance where every Yin has a Yang, and every Yang has a Yin. For example, when the Angel of Life was created, the Demon of Death was born. Similarly, when the Angel of Birth was manifested, the Demon of Abortion should not have existed. Likewise, if the Angel of Abortion exists, then the Angel of Birth should not; however, both exist even though birth signifies the absence of abortion and abortion negates birth. Why is this? It is because the angels, created by the Golden Being, and the demons, created by the Red Being, balance each other out. There is always an opposite, even if it creates a paradox where one's existence should nullify the other. When the Golden Being creates something, the Red Being creates an opposite, maintaining balance and duality. These beings create angels and demons that embody concepts which are opposites, sometimes meaning one should not exist alongside the other, to fight the war they started to decide your fate. Each creation embodies a concept or idea, and their opposites embody the opposing concept.
Now, let's discuss the Golden and Red Beings, also known as God and the Devil, the Holy Father and Satan, Absolute Good and Absolute Bad. These beings embody all concepts of one side—for example, God embodies compassion, happiness, and holiness, while Satan herself embodies evil, envy, sadness, and more. The beings that God created, the angels, and the beings that Satan herself created, the demons, each embody one concept based on their side: good for angels and evil for demons. But God and Satan embody all concepts and abstractions of one side. God embodies all that is positive and good, and Satan embodies all that is bad and negative. Their embodiment is more powerful and more abstract than their creations; they fully and completely embody one side. However, God, your father, and Satan, your mother, do not act like what they embody: God is paranoid, selfish, scared, envious, power-hungry, and insecure, while your mother is confident, selfless, brave, compassionate, sharing, and secure.
The reason the war started, Noboru-kun, is because God, your father, fears and wants to destroy you. He fears you because you transcend duality. You exist independently and qualitatively beyond dual systems on even a conceptual level—like good, bad, creation, destruction, life, death, and every single probable and improbable duality. No matter how much anyone or anything tries, they can't estimate just how superior you are. You are the only being not confined to the system that confines even the strongest beings. That is because you are the son of both sides—an absolute side of duality. Your father, God, also called Yahweh or the many names he goes by, and Lucy Morningstar, or the many names she goes by. Because of this, your father, paranoid and fearful of everything that is not him, is afraid of you and what you might become. He fears that if he lets you live, you will surpass him, usurp him. His pride, ego, and paranoia will not allow this, so he tried to kill you when you were born. Your mother fought to protect you. They made an army of concepts—opposites made to fight infinitely. God's angels are made to kill you, while the Devil's demons are made to protect you. This war has gone on for over a million years and is getting more brutal every year. It is an endless cycle of battle after battle with no end in sight."
Ayame explained, and Noboru understood. He was the child of the Golden Being, Yahweh, and the Red Being, Lucy Morningstar—Lucifer. The conflict between God and the Red Being was over him.
"But I was reincarnated. Did my father win and kill me? And was I reincarnated for a reason?" Noboru asked.
"I don't know, but you were reincarnated, and it's for a reason. That reason will be revealed in time. I love you, Noboru-kun, and I hope nothing happens to you. We can't let your father find out you are reincarnated."
"He already knows he sent his angel minion to kill me multiple times, Hikari," Noboru said as Ayame's eyebrows rose.
"Hikari... Never heard of him. The being might be a new creation in your time," Ayame said as Noboru nodded. It was the most logical explanation.
Suddenly, Noboru felt his concubines stir. Yami, on his left arm, and Ayumi, who was in-between his legs curled up, slowly opened her eyes. They both stretched their bodies, which were still pressed up against him.
"Morning, my King," Yami said, smiling at Noboru, her purple eyes glistening in the morning light.
"Good morning, my lord. Can I have my milk, please?" Ayumi said, her voice seductive, making Noboru cough and stutter. Even he knew what she was referring to; after all, she had been calling his cum "milk" all night yesterday. Ayumi pounced, licking his ears and neck.
"Stop that," Noboru said.
"Aww, come on, it's not like we haven't seen you naked or had sex," Ayumi whined.
"Ayumi, enough! Noboru-kun is confused right now!" Ayame ordered, and Ayumi pouted.
"Sorry," Ayumi said, looking down.
"It's okay," Noboru said, patting her head. It felt nice; her kitty ears were so satisfying to pet.
"We should get up. The three of us need to figure out what my goal is here. I can complete this memory, get out of Chronolux, and finish the combat trial. We have no idea what my goal is, though, and I need to figure it out before the time limit runs out, especially with Hikari making his way through Chronolux and unleashing the Void," Noboru said as Yami and Ayumi nodded.
The three of them got out of bed. The moment Noboru stood up, Yami and Ayumi, who were already standing, bowed their heads.
"My King, your bath is ready," Yami said.
"Come on, Noboru-sama," Ayumi added.
"Okay," he said. Noboru, followed by Yami and Ayumi, entered the bathroom. Noboru stepped into the warm bath. It felt refreshing, and the scent was heavenly. The warm water, along with the fragrance, was relaxing. He looked over at Yami and Ayumi, who had also stepped into the bath, and his jaw dropped. But what shocked him even more was when he saw Ayame, who was already there.
Noboru's heart began to beat faster, and his mind went blank. He could not form words. He was too shocked to think straight.
Ayumi smirked, noticing the look on his face. "Nya... No fair, Noboru-kun, you never looked at me like that."
"Agreed," Yami pouted.
"Of course not," Ayame retorted, her hand gently caressing Noboru's back and arms, making him shudder. "You're not his wife; I am. You are his concubines."
"Hmph," Ayumi said as Noboru coughed.
"Well, I'm sorry, both of you. But can we get on with the bath before I pass out? I'm exhausted from last night and need to recuperate. Plus, we need to figure out why I'm here and what we're meant to do."
"Right you are, Noboru-kun," Ayame said, smiling, her red hair shining in the light. As she made her way toward him, she smirked at Ayumi and Yami, who both smirked back. She put soap on their breasts and started to rub Noboru with them.
"Now, now, Noboru-kun, just relax. Your concubines and wife will take care of you," Ayame said. Noboru felt his body relax as Ayame used her domain of Love, and the girls took care of him.
