Alt Title teaser: Unexpected Meeting

Date published: 3/22/2025.

*************************

Upon noticing the intruder witness of her fulfilling her divine duty to a great god, she asks.

"What do you want?" Hiokks tone is defensive as she has taken into her role as Axel's woman. Though other than Axel not refusing to have sex with her, there is little truth in this statement. As for Brunhilde herself, she is still primarily stunned but quickly grows frustrated as her mind races a bit and the thought that Axel only recruited them to fuck them arose.

Brunhilde is about to walk away when Hiokk calls out, "Stop". Brunhilde pauses in place, one of her hands is partially lifted around her waist, the positioning is strange and thus the valkyrie should be moving her hand but she doesnt, or rather that she cant. 

Axel quickly realizes that Hiokk's action of semi bonding her body to Axel, combined with the fact that her body was actually made from his and his worlds energy, this means that she can essentially be considered Axel's apostle and thus harness his worlds law energy momentarily. This is what she did to stop her sister's actions. 

Hiokk reluctantly separates herself from Axel as he at least has the modesty to cover himself a bit with the bedsheets. Though the shorter valkyries' next actions are quite interesting as she barely stands on her toes to grope her sister a bit through her suit, her tone is relatively hostile as she describes offering Brunhilde to him (Axel) as a righteous vengeance.

Sigh "Alright, let's stop this" Axel sighs as he quickly manifests clothes on himself and just sits at the edge of the bed. Getting up, he dispels the energy imprisoning the eldest valkyrie who is about to vent her anger on her younger sister but Axel claps his hands.

"Alright people, let's sit down like proper individuals"

"You fucked my sister"

"And I do apologize, it was a crime of passion, if it was me from before coming to your world and healing my soul, then I might be the monster you see but I hold no actual love for your sister." Hiokk seems to deflate his words and calmly moves to sit down. Brunhilde has a tentative gaze as all three of them sit down on the couch. Axel sits opposite of the two.

"I shall be clear cut here, Hiokk is traumatized by her experiences with Jack the Ripper." His words cause a look of worry to cross Brunhilde's face as it was her fault from the very start. She looks down at the floor with a remorseful look. Hiokk on the other hand is still upset at being told that there is no love between them. She herself understands that she might be depressed and traumatized due to her nightmares of being choked and forced into the Volundr.

"I came here to offer a moment of rest and happiness for the young valkyrie, to give her a temporary reprieve from her worries. It had escalated from there due to me neglecting how insensitive my body is to lust and physical attraction. Hiokk fell under the impression that I had been attracted to her, which is only partially true. I had hoped of forming a proper stable bond with her and all of you before thinking of bedding any of you, like proper wives"

His explanation offers new insights into Axel's character, while the knowledge that he did in fact desire them remains unchanged from his previous self, he had wanted to form proper bonds with the people he desires as he already has too many relationships like that.

Brunhilde's original anger over Hiokk's betrayal had evaporated (for sleeping with Axel), meanwhile the younger valkyrie instead feels a sense of panic like Axel might discard her due to her senses and desires driving her to this point. A bond with one man had led her to her depression while her attempt at bonding with a different man was supposed to cure it but now she remains uncertain.

"Since the two of us had already reached such a stage, I won't abandon Hiokk, but I do hope that we can properly get to know each other better from now on." he informs Hiokk who glows up at not outright being rejected as she accepts, what is effectively a proposal. Brunhilde hides her jealousy quite well but not well enough as he has already noticed some traces of admiration and gratitude from her.

"I hope the two of you can make up in this time so that we can all progress as one big happy family. Ill be setting up a clone of myself in everyone's houses if you wish to talk or make any sort of requests. Everyone else already has one so I'm only informing you all in person instead of just creating it out of nowhere and you hear a random sudden voice in your house which just happens to be my voice." He brings the situation to a close but not before informing them of their home's newest renovation, a clone of himself. 

He explains that it has no clear limits except its inability to move by itself as they are personalized to each member who has one and has no reason to leave or wander. Axel also briefly explains how each clone is directly connected to him with no barrier and while he does not directly mention it, Hiokk is already having lustful thoughts about the clone. 

It's nothing new for Axel to have his clones having sex with his wives as he experiences every sensation of this interaction, as it is technically his body but his mind is focused elsewhere. Granted, there is one thing that the clones are incapable of doing, and that is getting his wives pregnant, that is purely reserved for his main body or if he is in the middle of something. He can have [Raphael] take over his main body while he takes over his clone and unlocks the gene seed to plant into his wives before returning to his main body.

In short he is treating his clones as dildos for his wives to help calm their sexual desires. Yet due to the vigor and voracity along with the number of his wives, Axel had to learn to momentarily nullify or divert the pleasure. This is due to the fact that Raikou is amongst them, he technically orgasms over 30 times a day, which explains his own sexual insensitivity and how Hiokks circumstances ended up as they did. He is just so 'used' to 'it' that he has become desensitized to it.

Shaking his head of the useless thoughts, Axel actually plans for a short trip to clear up some confusion regarding his great rune and radahn soul shard. Using the soul fragment as the primary link for his second magic, he begins his trip through space as the sheer size of the distance actually nullifies the instant teleportation factor, Axel believes that this will also be the case for where he plans to go next but he can't be fully certain as he enjoys the free fall trip through space, his magic energy fueling his variation of second magic to just 'drag' him to this foreign world.

Yet his field trip is cut short once he reaches roughly three quarters of the way there. Axel finds himself in the middle of space, unaffected by the cold and spatial radiation naturally being released by any and all stars in the distance. 

Standing in the middle of nowhere in the middle of space is a simple looking man with short black hair and white/silver eyes that appear like mercury. To Axel, the individual would pass off as a bloodborne hunter with the style of clothing he has on. Yet strangely enough, his small fragment of Radahn seems to tremble in his mindscape at the presence of this person. The same is even more so true of the small sliver of great rune that he holds inside himself.

"Uhhhh, hi?" Axel says with a hint of uncertainty as he didn't even feel anything until his trip to Elden Ring was interrupted, he can't really sense anything from the individual in front of them.

"Hello" the dripped out man says, his expression unlooking and unfeeling, like he isn't even here.

"Are you the one who stopped me?" Axel can only ask and that seems to snap the man out of his stupor as his mercury colored eyes begin to swirl as if the outside of the region of his pupils are being dragged to the inside space before being redistributed out again and this repeats constantly.

"Huh, oh right. Yea. Uh, go away. You don't want to continue on to your current destination."

"May I ask why?"

"Not really but i'll tell you anyways since I have nothing better to do. Unless you gain the ability to see the unseen, you would just die if you continued on your travels. Lots of little monsters that want nothing more than to fuck up someone like you. A law based creature like you is nothing more than a delicacy for them, especially with no way to defend yourself. 

"Alright, but why do you care?"

"Because your destination belongs to me and I don't need an outside element getting introduced out of nowhere while my apostle is doing their best to win." 

"Fair enough, May I know your name in case we ever encounter each other again in our lives?"

Sigh, "sure, I am called Thorn, the Judge"

"Called? It's not your name? And why that name and title? I'm Axel Gram "

"No you're not, it's just a name you identify as, one given to you by others. Granted, as you are now, you have no need for your true name in your current state." While he talks, he takes out a small handle, as skinny as a thin black stick picked off a weird tree. He clenches his hand and black particles are attracted to the weapon as it begins to shift and change until it becomes a giant spike, even bigger than the mans body which he let's rest on his shoulder.

"Ah, Thorn, right. Well, i guess ill be on my way then somewhere else" Axel activates his second magic again but as he seems to travel a few feet he is stopped once again.

"I almost forgot, I want that little thing back from you." Thorn states as he points directly at Axel's chest and for a moment it feels like the sliver of great rune he holds would slip out of him. Axel can momentarily see an incomplete symbol of the elden ring at the tip of Thorns finger, it too is a golden bloody color.

Seeing the momentary resistance in Axel, Thorn shrugs as he holds out in his other hand what looks like a glass orb with a cloud of darkness inside.

"You can have this in exchange, your shinier stick of mars doesnt have this. And maybe, just maybe in a few million years you will reach the necessary level to meet me again. Until then" The glass orb shoots towards Axel while the sliver of great rune is ripped out of Axel against his will. 

Axel would have lashed out at the figure if the glass orb didn't outright melt into his body, [Raphael] and [Great Devourer] go into action to combat the foreign object but in opening a small hole into the glass creates a massive reaction as Axel is exposed to the new energy type. 

His head begins to contort and shake in every direction as if he is struck by ten simultaneous seizures all in different directions. Though his own vision seems to glaze over for a moment as he took in Thorns [true] image. 

Eventually he was able to suppress the energy and assimilate it into his [Rhongomyniad], though there was some incompatibility and thus new Rhongo's seem to be 'born' from the first as they rotate around the original, it's power increasing but Axel is not happy, mostly due to what he just saw. 

"Heh, not bad kid, if you were in your previous state you would have been more compatible with [Chaos] but you would have also died not long after. So I congratulate you and maybe it won't be a million years when we meet again. Ill be sure to offer you a new deal then, one you might have a choice in next time around" The figure seems to dissipate, leaving Axel all alone in space.

"Well that was fucking terrifying, I understand why people are so obsessed with lovecraftian horror now. But if he claimed that that world was under his control then I definitely don't wanna go there. Elder gods fighting who knows how many other elder gods, no thank you" 

"But first, let me settle in this new problem child" Axel talks to himself as he returns to his world and then begins to spend the next couple months studying [Chaos] and how it works and what it actually did to him.

Alt Title: Thorn Fucks Everything Over Again

Word count: 2556

Drop a comment if you wanna judge my writing or the story. I'll try to respond, especially if you're confused or anything. 

This next part explains a little about thorn for anyone who didn't read my first book on Douluo Dalu/Soul Land 1. This part can be skipped as he won't really appear again in this book, at least I don't plan on it, RIGHT NOW. It contains spoilers if you wish to read my Douluo Dalu book at all.

Thorn was the original owner of Chaos which had fucked over many gods and the mc in my DD book. Due to the connection with the Elden Ring, thorn's chaos power was stolen and then corrupted by another elder god, it gained partial intelligence and had begun to evoke chaos on other worlds. This is my original explanation for the Queen of All Monsters power from the Adventure Quest World-Chaos Saga. 

After being rebelled from that world, it had taken root in the god of reincarnation in DD who had caused the original dragon god to fall but was supposedly killed by Asura god, the godking who passed on his title to Tang San/Xiao Wu. the chaos had actually been kicked into the mortal realm where it possessed a mogh look alike and then had led a dynasty there as if trying to replicate Elden Ring in DD. This had partially succeeded but the chaos had actually ended up possessing the real Mogh in an alt timeline based on canon ER. That mogh did not beat the allegations as they truly did use Miquella as a power source but there was no love between them. Mogh then killed the mc of my story, possessing him and eventually turning him into the newest god of reincarnation but Xue Tie (my mc) had found the will to turn the tables and had expelled chaos from himself but used the death rune he had kill of the chaos proper until it contacted Thorn for rescue like a lost puppy. The end.
