Endless Journey: Infinite Realms

Chapter 323 Interlude: Asteria“s typical day as a student Part 5

[Asteria]: Kibou, why the hell are you quiet now?

[Kibou]: ...

[Asteria]: You... are you planning on doing something again?

[Kibou]: Ki! Ki! Ki! Ki!

[Asteria]: Hah? Are you sure about that? Even if you are just a drone, you look like you are plotting something right now...

[Kibou]: Ki! Ki! KI! Ki!

[Asteria]: Hmph, you better stay that way then. I won’t tolerate you interrupting my plans!

[Kibou]: Ki?

[Asteria]: What are my plans? Didn’t I just say it earlier? First, I will beat up Celeste, and then I will leave this place through the teleportation formation! And you, Kibou, will be helping me out on both.

[Kibou]: Ki....

[Asteria]: Heh, you better prepare your body now, as I can feel that we will meet Celeste already!

[Kibou]: Ki... ki ki!

[Asteria]: Kibou, don’t try to convince me anymore. Celeste lied to me, so she has to face my punishment!

[Kibou]: Ki....

[Asteria]: Sigh, if you don’t want to beat her up, I can just leave you here. Tsk, one usele-

[[[Asteria’s words were cut off as she and Kibou felt the arrival of three presences towards their location.]

[Asteria]: Huh? These three presences... Ugh, it’s those three.

[Kibou]: Ki!

[[[Asteria’s face warped into disgust while Kibou’s metallic face showed happiness.]]]

[Asteria]: Oi Kibou! Stop showing me that creepy smile! Are you really happy that these three are here?

[Kibou]: Ki?

[[[Before Asteria could berate Kibou more, the three presences arrived in front of the two, which forced the two to stop talking.

[Asteria]: Ex, Cali, and Bur. What the hell are you three doing here?

[Ex]: Mistress Asteria, we’ve been looking for you ever since the attack on his place happened. Mistress... you do not know how worried we were for you!

[Cali]: My Queen, you don’t need to be worried now, for we are here!

[Bur]: Empress, we will protect you from all harm, so you do not need to be scared anymore!

[Asteria]: ....

[Kibou]: ....

[Asteria]: Protect me, you say? You three can’t even defeat me, and now you still have the guts to say that you will all protect me? Did all you get concussion when I punched y’all yesterday?

[Ex]: Mistress.... Please don’t be this stubborn anymore. We are your protectors, so we are obliged to stay with you!

[Cali]: My Queen, why are you this angry to us? We are always doing our best for you!

[Bur]: Empress... forgive us if we are useless in your eyes.

[Asteria]: Ugh stop talking you three! Just... just leave me and go to the teleportation formation! This place is about to collapse so you should run for your lives!

[Ex]: Mistress! We cannot do that! If we leave you alone here, your father will surely be angry!

[Cali]: My Queen, even your mother and sister will not be happy with you too. Do you want them to know about your actions?

[Bur]: Empress, please rethink your actions, or your family might get a wind of this!

[Asteria]: You three... Are you blackmailing me right now?

[Ex]: Mistress, if that is all that it takes for us to be by your side, then we are willing to do anything.

[Cali]: My Queen, your safety is our priority, so there is no way that you can chase us away!

[Bur]: Please Empress, we do not want to make this worse for you.

[Kibou]: Ki ki ki ki...

[Asteria]: Oi Kibou! Don’t laugh at me! This is not funny!

[Kibou]: Ki..

[Asteria]: F**k... I don’t have any choice in this matter, do I?

[Cali]: My Queen, just let us join you until your safety is assured. Once you are already safe, we will give you the space that you want.

[Ex]: Please Mistress, just let us accompany you today.

[Bur] Empress, we had sworn to protect your life. Please... grant us the chance to protect you, even if you don’t need it!

[Kibou]: Ki...

[[[In front of the sickeningly earnest faces of Ex, Cali, and Bur, Asteria was left with no choice but to give in to their request.]]]

[Asteria]: ...Fine, you can accompany me right now, but you must not interact with me. You will only interact with me when I want it to happen! Do you understand that?

[Ex]: Yes Mistress!

[Cali]: Affirmative, My Queen.

[Bur]: Your words are as clear as spring water, Empress.

[Asteria]: .....

[[[With three new additions in her group, Asteria, Kibou, Ex, Cali, and Bur all flew together towards their destination.]]]

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

[Asteria]: Why can’t I see Celeste? She should be near this area already! Don’t tell me she’s already dead?

[Ex]: Mistress, maybe Celeste has already used the teleportation formation to leave....

[Asteria]: Shut up Ex! Did I ask you to talk?

[Ex]: N-n-no Mistress!

[Cali]: Tsk, Ex! Did you just disobey My Queen? You deserve a punishment for this!

[Bur]: Ingrate! Ex, you should be happy that Empress did not ask for your life right now!

[Ex]: Hiii!!! I’m sorry Mistress!

[Cali] and [Bur]: You must be punished!

Pa pa pa!

[[[Slapping sounds echoed out as Cali and Bur started spanking Ex’s butt. Kibou and Asteria, who were flying just right behind the trio, both had twitching expression on their faces as they were not sure on where to look.]]]

[Kibou]: Ki...

[Asteria]: Argh! These three are really a bunch of idiots!

[Cali]: My Queen! We have punished Ex already!

[Bur]: Empress, is your anger appeased already?

[Asteria]: Cali and Bur... you talked to me without my permission! Did you just forget my command earlier?

[Cali] and [Bur]: Hiii!!! We have sinned! We must punish ourselves too!

Pa pa pa!

[[[Cali and Bur then proceeded to spank themselves, which made Asteria extremely pissed.]]]

[Cali]: Bur, we have punished ourselves already, do you think My Queen will forgive us now?

[Bur]: Don’t worry Bur. Empress is our most noble master! She will be magnanimous enough to forgive us!

[Ex]: Maybe Mistress has already forgiven us. Look, she’s not shouting at us anymore.

[Cali]: It’s just like what you said Ex! My Queen seems to be not angry anymore! Bur! Why don’t we continue punishing ourselves? Maybe My Queen will feel better from that!

[Bur]: Count me in Cali!

[Ex]: My butt hurts right now... but if it is for the happiness of Mistress, I will gladly spank myself even if my butt cheeks get sore!

Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa!

[[[Louder spanking sounds echoed as Ex, Cali, and Bur proceeded to slap their butts in an aggressive manner. By this point, Asteria’s fierce demeanor was gone, as only a desolate expression can be seen on her face.]]]

[Asteria]: ...Why am I stuck with these three idiots? If I only have Derek as my guard, I will gladly spank that thicc booty of his everyday! Argh! This just makes me feel angrier!

[Kibou]: Ki... ki ki.

[Asteria]: ...Sigh, so you’re consoling me now? These three guards of mine must really look pathetic to you.

Pa pa pa pa pa!

[Ex]: Argh! My butt hurts so much right now! Cali, can we stop already?

[Cali]: No! We will only stop until we can’t spank our butts anymore! So what if our butts hurt? It’s all worth it in the end! After all, eveything that we do is for My Queen!

[Bur]: Ah! My butt stings like is been bitten by a bee! But I will not yield! I will continue spanking my butt for Empress’ happiness!

[Ex]: For her happiness!

[Cali]: For her happiness!

[Bur]: For her happiness!

[Asteria]: I... I want this nightmare to already end.

[Kibou]: Ki.. ki. ki. ki. ki....
