Chapter 221 Your Mother Is An Evil Bitch

I rolled over with her in my arms and gently placed her on the bed. I then began to explore her body with my mouth, and she moaned loudly as I teased and tantalized her. She cried out as I brought her to orgasm, and then I quickly entered her once again.

We continued like this all night, and I lost count of how many times I made her come. She was exhausted by the time I finally let her rest, and she lay in my arms, panting and sweaty.

"I thought you said that tonight was about me?" She said, and I chuckled.

"It is, but I am not going to deny that I enjoyed myself as well," I said, and she grinned as she snuggled closer to me.

"I love you, Papi." She said, and I grinned.

"I love you too, Hermosa," I said, and then we fell asleep in each other's arms.

The next morning, we woke up and made love again. Today was going to be filled with many things, but I wasn't going to have time for this, so I made sure that we enjoyed each other to the fullest.

I indulged myself in her body, and she let me do whatever I wanted. We explored each other, and we came up with new ways to make love. She was insatiable, and I loved it.

Eventually, we had to get out of bed, and we got ready for the day. I knew that she had a lot of work to do with the people that I had given Systems to already, and I would have to swing by later to give out a few more Systems.

I was going to be busy today as well, so we parted ways after we made love one last time. We both showered quickly, and then I headed out, heading towards the first place that I needed to be.

"Fancy seeing you here," Omega said after the roots set me down from being thrown from the R&D Tree.

"Well, I think that you and I need to have a talk. I am sure that you heard about the sisters," I said, and Omega in Brad Pitt's body nodded.

"Yeah, that is something else. I know that you were pretty confident in being able to fight them. I was right along with you, but this time crunch is going to make it a clencher!" Omega said, and I groaned.

"That is a slight understatement. Do you know what they can do?" I asked, and Omega scoffed.

"You think I wouldn't? I mean, I don't know anything about Lindemia, but no one does. The other two are pretty scary, but you are much scarier; you just haven't reached that point," Omega explained, and I sighed.

"That doesn't really help me now," I said, putting the crook of my hand to my head.

"Yes, well, luckily, you have me," Omega said with a smirk. I looked at him questioningly for a moment before realization dawned on me.

"Oh! You want to help?" I asked excitedly, and Omega shrugged as if it was no big deal.

"Well, someone has to," Omega said as if it was obvious, "Besides, you are going to need all the help that you can get."

"So, what form of help does this come in?" I asked, and Omega grinned like he had just tried ice cream for the first time.

"Octavia. Her and your new wife. Calishora will definitely become an invaluable resource. Honestly, I have to say that you did a really good job there," Omega said, clapping me on the shoulder, but I gave him a look.

"Letting her live infinite lifetimes with me was not in my plans," I said, and Omega sighed.

"Next time, just lie to me," Omega said with a sigh, and I laughed.

"I will try to, but I make no promises," I said, and Omega sighed.

"Well, at least you are trying. That is more than I can say for myself," Omega said, and then he snapped his fingers. "One more thing."

He produced a bag from behind his back that was filled with all sorts of potions and vials, "I made this concoction for you." Omega handed the bag to me, and I took it hesitantly, looking inside. "Just drink it when you go into battle," Omega said as if it was no big deal. I looked up at him questioningly, and he shrugged again as if this was an everyday occurrence. "It should help... some," Omega finished lamely, and I sighed as I put the bag over my shoulder.

"That was even more sketchy than the first time that I met you!" I growled, and Omega rolled his eyes.

"You are never going to let that go, are you?" He asked, and I shook my head.

"Nope! You tried to kill me!" I exclaimed, and Omega sighed.

"That was a long time ago, and I have since made up for it," Omega said plainly as if it should be obvious. I crossed my arms over my chest and gave him a flat look. "Fine, don't drink it then," Omega said with a huff before turning away from me and disappearing into a puff of smoke.

That was new, or maybe it wasn't. I don't know; I had stopped trying to keep track of everything that happened in this world a long time ago. I turned away from the spot that Omega had just disappeared from and made my way toward where I was supposed to meet up with Calishora.

The space dragon was supposed to start teaching me right away to get me prepared, but I had no clue what that meant for me. She had lived in my mind for untold years with me, and now she was with me just like then, but I didn't have those memories. It felt like I was starting from scratch in some ways, but I wasn't too worried about it.

After all, I had faced down things that were a lot scarier than not knowing what the future held.

The first thing that Calishora had me do was to harness my systeminium and use it to create a shield around myself. It was harder than it sounds since I had never really tried to control my systeminium specifically before, but with her help, I was able to get the hang of it pretty quickly. This was thanks to my already been using it in different ways so much.

Apparently, space dragons were one of the best at using systeminium due to their unique nature. That made sense, but it was more than just being part of Tiamat. They were attuned to the ebb and flow of systeminium itself, which gave them a natural affinity for using it.

Calishora had me do all sorts of exercises with my metal while she watched on and gave me pointers here and there until finally, she nodded in approval. "You have a natural talent for controlling the systeminium," she said after we finished over seven hours of training. "But," she added, and I stopped, looking at her. "You need to learn how to use it for more than just protection."

"What do you mean?" I asked, and Calishora sighed as if this was going to be a long explanation. "I have time," I said, trying to reassure her, but she still looked hesitant.

"It is not that I do not want to tell you. It is that I am worried about what will happen once you know," she said finally, and my eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

"What do you mean?" I asked again, and Calishora took a deep breath before beginning her story.

"You see, when Tiamat first created the systeminium, she did so with the intention of it being used as a weapon. A tool to end conflicts quickly and efficiently without any loss of life," Calishora explained, and my mind began going through all of the different ways that systeminium could be used as a weapon. "However, over time, she began to realize that systeminium could be used for more than just destruction."

Calishora continued on after taking a moment to gather her thoughts, "She started using it for other things such as healing and creating things instead of just destroying them." The dragon paused again as if she was unsure if she should continue or not before sighing deeply and continuing on anyway.

"Tiamat soon realized that the possibilities were endless with systeminium and that it could be used for good as well as for evil. She started to worry about what would happen if others ever got ahold of it and used it for their own purposes."

"That is why she placed the seal on the systeminium and created the space dragons," Calishora said finally, and I furrowed my brows in confusion. "We were created to protect the systeminium and make sure that it was never used for evil."

"And yet, your mother is an evil bitch that is trying to conquer the galaxy," I sighed. "It seems like she didn't do a very good job."

"Tiamat is not evil," Calishora said defensively. "She is just... misguided."

"And what about you? Are you also misguided?" I asked, and the dragon was silent for a long moment before sighing deeply.

"I do not know anymore," she finally admitted, and I nodded in understanding. "But that does not change the fact that we were created to protect the systeminium."

"And what exactly does that mean?" I asked, and Calishora furrowed her brows in thought for a moment before answering.

"It means that we are attuned to the systeminium and can sense when it is being used for evil purposes. It also means that we can use our own power to nullify the systeminium if need be."

"But you are using it for evil purposes. How do you tell the difference?" I asked, trying to press this. I needed to know how they were differentiating between what was good and evil. "How do you know that what your mother is doing is wrong?"

"Because she is using the systeminium for destruction and not for creation," Calishora said simply as if that should be obvious. "And because we can feel the pain of those who are being harmed by her actions."

"What about those who are being harmed by your actions?" I asked pointedly, and the dragon was silent for a long moment before sighing deeply.

"This is different," she said finally, but I could tell that she didn't believe her own words. "The systeminium was never meant to be used in such a way."

"And yet you are using it," I pointed out, and Calishora furrowed her brows in frustration. "It seems to me like Tiamat didn't do a very good job of protecting her precious weapon."

"That is because she was betrayed," Calishora said quietly, and I sighed.

Everything came back full circle, but this did give me a different outlook on Tiamat.
