Lackey's Seducing Survival Odyssey

Chapter 270: His Thing is... little weird!

”It hasnʼt even been 12 hours, and yet her body has already started to decay...” Aether mumbled as he carefully poured Yang Energy into Maelonaʼs mouth, his fingers trembling slightly.

Aria watched with a worried expression, biting her lower lip, ”So, youʼre saying... itʼs not working?” she asked, her voice laced with concern. She knew exactly what that white liquid was.

Aether had explained everything to her about Maelona, leaving no detail unspoken.

Though Aether was often a scumbag, he didnʼt want to hurt Aria with his situation involving Her mother. He had laid everything bare before her. To his surprise, Aria had nodded with a calm and understanding expression, one he certainly didnʼt expect.

”I canʼt say without testing... Previously, it lasted longer, so I think it might not be related to the quantity...” Aether mumbled, recalling how he had given Maelona double the usual amount of Yang Energy this time.

Ariaʼs eyes wandered to his crotch, which was still bulging since they had stopped midway. Her eyes flickered with a mix of curiosity and realization before she spoke again, ”Could it be about the quality then? Whether youʼre aroused or not?”

”Hmm?” Aether frowned, his mind racing to make sense of her words.

”I mean... maybe it depends on how aroused you are or something...” Aria said, a slight blush colouring her cheeks. She couldnʼt believe she was discussing this in front of her mother, who was still unconscious.

”Thatʼs a good theory. Why do you think so?” Aether asked, now deeply interested in her line of thought.

”I mean... it wasnʼt every time you came inside me that I felt rejuvenated.... I mean, It was only sometimes, when you were very aroused, that I felt the energy was stronger.... Other times, it was mild,” Aria explained, trying to piece together her thoughts as she spoke. She struggled to find the right words to express what she felt.

”Interesting...” Aether mumbled, ʼI feel like somethingʼs wrong with me... sigh.ʼ He nodded thoughtfully and looked at Maelona. ”Looks like sheʼs not waking up... Why donʼt you help me?” he suggested with a smirk, his eyes gleaming with mischief.

Aria licked her lips before replying, ”Do you even need to ask?” She pulled him towards the bathroom, her grip firm and eager.

Meanwhile...

ʼWhat the heck is going on?ʼ Maelona screamed inwardly while maintaining her unconscious facade.

She hadnʼt actually fainted; she had simply stumbled and fallen when her body got tired and dizzy. She was lying there to avoid Aetherʼs wrath for not contacting him sooner. But who would have thought sheʼd overhear something so.... important?

”W-What are they talking about? His? Aroused? Quality? I donʼt understand,” Maelona thought, her mind racing with confusion and curiosity.

After what felt like an eternity, Aria and Aether emerged from the bathroom, their bodies still glistening with sweat.

Maelona, quietly peeking through her barely opened eyes, noticed their clothes were dishevelled, and Ariaʼs mouth was drooling slightly.

ʼGulpʼ

She swallowed hard, ʼD-Donʼt tell me...ʼ Her mind struggled to process the scene.

Meanwhile...

Aether examined the two bottles filled with Yang Energy. No matter how closely he looked, he couldnʼt see any difference without a microscope.

”I donʼt see anything different...” Aether mumbled, frustration evident in his voice. Aria took the two bottles, licking her lips sensuously. ”I think this one is more potent,” she said, holding up one of the bottles.

”Hmm? How can you tell?” Aether asked, puzzled. He was sure he hadnʼt seen any difference.

”Dear, there are things only a woman can understand~,” she whispered, rubbing his crotch teasingly.... She was still hungry, unsatisfied by their brief encounter in the bathroom.

Aether shook his head with amusement, but then a thought struck him. ʼWhat if...ʼ He focused on the Arcane energy, like how he did to absorb othersʼ arcane energy.

His vision shifted to black and white, revealing one of the bottles flickering with a bright white light while the other only slightly flickered.

”Fuck...” Aether mumbled, astonished. The bright white light bottle was from Ariaʼs special service, while the flickering one was from his own hands.

”Aria, you are fucking awesome,” Aether said, amazed at her intuition.

”Hm?” Aria was taken aback but then grinned with a happy smile. ”Arenʼt I?” she said, hugging him tightly and kissing his neck, her desire rekindled.

”A-Aria? Your mother...”

”Itʼs fine, sheʼs just sleeping... and itʼs just a simple kiss,” Aria said, before kissing his lips passionately, savouring his taste.

Meanwhile, Maelona was crying inwardly. She couldnʼt believe her shy daughter was doing this in front of her..... just because she was horny.

ʼWhere did I go wrong...?ʼ she thought, her mind spiralling with confusion and disbelief. She slightly opened her eyes and peeked, seeing Aria pushing Aether against the wall and kissing him vigorously. Aetherʼs hands roamed over Ariaʼs body, fondling her ass as he slowly slid inside her.

”Ah~”

”....” Maelona was taken aback, her cheeks turning red before she tightly closed her eyes again, her heart pounding in her chest

Aether immediately stopped and stared at Maelona, sensing something was off.

ʼD-Did he find out?ʼ Maelona screamed inwardly, panic rising.

Aether sighed deeply before kissing Ariaʼs forehead, ”Aria, snap out of it!” he said sternly, his voice firm.

Those words were enough to bring Aria back to her senses. She blushed deeply, lowering her head in shame. She couldnʼt believe she had lost control in the heat of the moment.

ʼThank goodness Mom is still sleeping..ʼ she thought, feeling a mix of relief and embarrassment.

Then Aether walked toward Maelona and carefully poured the brighter liquid into her mouth. As she drank it, her body instantly rejuvenated, as if it were brimming with newfound energy.

Maelona, knowing she couldnʼt hide anymore, slowly fluttered her eyes open, pretending to wake up.

”M-Mom!” Aria cried out, her voice trembling with a mixture of relief and fear.

She immediately hugged her mother tightly, tears streaming down her face. ”I-I was so scared, Mom! I thought I was going to lose you!” Her grip was almost desperate as if she feared letting go would mean losing her mother forever.

Maelona gently patted Ariaʼs back, her expression one of incredulity and tenderness. She couldnʼt believe how quickly Aria had switched from the passionate girl she had seen earlier to the scared, loving daughter she was now.

Where had the horny girl she saw before gone?

She wondered but didnʼt dare ask. Seeing Aether staring at her with an amused expression, her cheeks turned red before she averted her gaze. His smirk made her feel exposed and embarrassed, yet also oddly comforted by his confidence and presence.

”Ahem,” Aether cleared his throat, breaking the tension in the room, ”I told you to contact me as soon as you felt dizzy, didnʼt I?” His tone was firm but filled with concern.

Maelona lowered her head, feeling a mix of shame and gratitude, ”I-I thought I was able to keep up... but the tiredness suddenly washed over me,” she admitted, her voice barely above a whisper.

Aether shook his head, his expression softening with understanding. ”I know, Mother-in-law, what youʼre thinking,” he said gently, his eyes meeting hers with a knowing look.

”Hmm?”

”You think youʼre a burden to me, right?” Aetherʼs words were direct, piercing through her insecurities and hitting the core of her worries.

Hearing that, Maelona lowered her head even more...

Aether shook his head again, understanding her all too well. Maelona, who had lived her life alone and loveless, was easy to read, ”Mother-in-law, you have lived your life alone, A husband who abandoned you and A daughter who was caged.... Itʼs easy to understand why you feel this way, but youʼre wrong.”

Aether then hugged both women, pulling them close with a warmth and sincerity that was undeniable, ”We are family, Mother-in-law. If you think youʼre a burden, then youʼre not thinking of me as your family..... Family means supporting each other, no matter what.”

Maelona blinked, her eyes glistening with unshed tears, ”I-Iʼm sorry,” she said, her voice breaking, ”Iʼll try to think differently.” Her heart was a whirlwind of emotions, battling between past fears and new hopes.

Aria, still holding her mother tightly, added, ”Itʼs fine, Mom. You can trust him... You can trust this MAN!” Her voice was filled with conviction and love.

She knew her mother still hadnʼt gotten over the fear of being abandoned by a man, so her hesitation was understandable, ”Heʼs not like the others, Mom. Heʼs different. Heʼs here for us, always.” Aria said with a determined face as she knew Aether would be there for them!

Maelonaʼs eyes turned even teary before she nodded, her heart swelling with a mixture of relief, hope, and a sense of belonging she hadnʼt felt in a long time, ”I am sorry, dear... I-I will try,” she said.

Hearing that, Aria smiled brightly, ”Thank you, Mom. Thatʼs all we ask,” she said, her voice soft and loving.

Aether nodded approvingly before kissing Maelonaʼs forehead, then Ariaʼs, and hugged them both tightly.

Maelona smiled gently, feeling his protective emotions..... She felt a warmth spread through her heart, a sense of belonging she hadnʼt felt in a long time.
