Truth Of The Forgotten Age

Veronica was walking back to the apartment, and on her way back, she noticed people staring at her, as if there was something noticeable. This made Veronica quicken her pace, just to spend as little time as possible near others.

She made a guess that it's because she was wearing casual clothing stained with sweat, and an odd smell that emanated from her wasn't exactly normal. Perhaps Goblins have a unique scent when performing intimate activities.

Veronica finally made it back to the apartment, where she opened the door and was immediately assaulted by Cassidy, and smothered in smooches.

"Welcome back!" Cassidy said excitedly, most definitely filled to the brim with caffeine. Cassidy sniffed the air a little, again and again. "You smell like sex. But, like, different sex. What did you fuck?" She asked quizzically.

"Our favorite blacksmith." Veronica responded nonchalantly. "I also now have to skills I can upgrade-" Veronica continued but quickly stopped herself, remembering not to tell Cassidy what happened.

However, Cassidy seemed to have already figured it out. Her face grew wide with disappointment and sadness, but she sucked it up really quick.

"I... I see. I uh... wanted to be the first, but considering I can't... you know... I guess it made a little bit of sense. But, how are you going to... raise it?"

"I don't know. It was a spur of the moment. Liafi said she knew what to do. But, I will take responsibility."

"Will you take responsibility for all the children you'll eventually have?"

"Yes. I will."

"Good. Now go take a shower, you stink."

Veronica nodded as the two went their separate ways. Veronica went to her room to grab a change of clothing and then headed to the bathroom.

She stripped herself naked and started to run the water, deciding to take a relaxing bath instead of a shower.

Once the tub was filled up to Veronica's desired amount, she stepped into the bath, the hot water enveloping her, causing her to exhale a long sigh of relaxation.

She quickly scrubbed herself clean so she can just take the time to lay back and soak. Perhaps this was a good time to see what those new upgrades were.

Charm, Using seduction on others is easier [2/5]: Current upgrade; Charm can be used at anytime and you can control the amount of influence exerted onto charmed targets. Upgradeable! Challenge: Use Charm on someone of high standing and have penetrative intercourse with them.

Next Upgrade: All creatures are more likely to be influenced by Charm and you gain resistance to all forms of Charm, both natural and magical.

"Well, that's definitely going to be put on hold. I mean, there is Elly, but I don't really want to use it on her. Maybe I'll meet someone at some point to use it on. But that next upgrade may prove useful. Especially if the dungeon stays like how we left it... And next is..." She talked to herself, ending with anticipation.

Succubus Spellcraft, Gain access to magic that only Succubi can use [3/4]: Current Upgrade; You can now delve into the subconscious of unconscious creatures by performing a ritual, as well as spells from previous upgrades. Upgradeable! Challenge: Impregnate five (5) non-human creatures [1/5]

Next Upgrade: All forms of demonic magic can be performed without the use of a catalyst or chant.

"Of course. Well, if I find any girls like that, I will try to convince them. But what are the chances of that? More magic though, and it says all forms a demonic magic. Curious... Well, I think that just leaves me needing to have sex with two more people for the first time, and kill or defeat about... thirty three more things... great. I might get lucky and defeat like five or six people in the tournament, but I'll need to go back into the dungeon for that."

Veronica sighed and took a quick look at her own body. She really has gotten better. She had a little bit more meat on her bones, she was taller, she had muscles starting to develop, her breasts had also started to fill out more. And, of course, the new, obvious addition that she has gotten pretty used to.

'It's only been just over a month since I came here with Cass, and I've already done all of this. Heh, what's next? I become a queen within the next year?' Veronica joked to herself. 'I miss Mom and Dad. I should write them a letter soon. I will need to hide a lot, but it's not like they need to know that they're grandparents to a half goblin child.' She chuckled.

Veronica felt quite relaxed, so she decided to get out of the tub before she accidentally falls asleep. Veronica dried herself off, got in a new set of clothing, and left the bathroom.

"Finally. Now that you're all here, I can give you some news." The voice of Tisha came from the living room, and she had clearly spotted Veronica.

Everyone gathered up to listen to what the former hero had to say.

"I got you all signed up, so the 'Ethereal Ravens' are now an official team. When the tournament starts, you should check out the tournament's bracket to see when you'll be up and to tell who your opponents are. And, if you do well, you get to go into the dungeon again."

The girls were all excited for this. They get to finally show off what they could do. 

"Since that's all, I'll be in my room if you need me." Tisha was about to leave when Veronica had a sudden idea.

"Um, actually, I need to speak with you, privately." Veronica said, immediately thinking this was a bad idea.

However, there was a voice in the back of her head tell her to continue. And it wasn't Lilith. It felt more natural.

"Sure. Come along." Tisha agreed and led Veronica to her room.

When the two were finally alone, Tisha locked the door, turned to face Veronica and crossed her arms.

"So, what is it?"

"Well, I wanted to try and make you less... obsessed with me. Or at least, I'll try."

"Oh, please do. I feel wrong about masturbating while thinking about a student."

'If you say it like that... I'll want to keep you that way... perhaps I can try something else...'

"Well, let's start then." Veronica said, closing her eyes to focus.

Something deep inside her wanted to make Tisha wholly subservient. Perhaps even more. And make sure that Tisha believes that this was her natural feeling and not charm.

And then, Veronica wondered what was wrong with her. But perhaps it wouldn't hurt if she made sure Tisha kept her original personality.

With some focusing later, she finally opened her eyes and looked at Tisha.

"Feel anything different?"

"I'm less horny than usual now. But I still don't feel... any different towards you."

"Hmm... Sit."

Without hesitation or question, Tisha sat down immediately. Not on a chair, not the bed, just on the floor.

And Tisha's expression hasn't changed at all.

"What next?" She asked as if nothing happened.

Veronica smirked, and knew what she could do at this point. But she wanted to keep it tame.

"For this point on, you will call me... Mistress. And anything I tell you to do will not be accepted with anything less than 'Yes Mistress', and will be done immediately. Understood?"

"Yes, Mistress." Tisha's expression still unchanged. As if she didn't even notice what was going on.

Veronica severely wanted to take advantage of her now, but that was wrong. What she's doing was wrong. But something kept telling her that it's okay. But why does she feel so good about it?

She would have total control over anyone she used Charm on now. And if upgrade all the way, then potentially...

No one would be able to stop her.
