Chapter 854: Honey Trap Revisited
=Yup.=
=That’s not necessarily a bad thing…=

‘I’m sorry…could you repeat that?’
[I said, we went down here to free our husbands!,] WoodGal repeated with much surer conviction than before.
‘Uh…huh.’
At this moment, Zhen Liu was tempted to pick his ears clean in order to make sure he was hearing what he was hearing.
However, since this entire conversation was done via telepathic soul shit, he knew damn well the zakos meant what they meant.
Which led to a new question.
‘Why the fuck? Actually wait, I am asking the wrong set of spirits for this.’
Zhen Liu was just about to contact Logos and Pathos, since they were accessible again, but was stopped by Blazejudicator:Paralust. More Specifically, she gave him an answer before he needed to ask.
[Ohhh, I see what happened. It’s my bad, Executor. Whoops.]
‘Really? Why?’
[Well…since I didn’t have a proper body about…six hours ago? I figured I would make myself one by having a mortal be filled with intense “Lust”. Hence the bathhouse and the sexy feminine zakos.]
‘I…I feel like I should be angrier over the fact that you essentially whored out the zakos without my permission, but I can’t really judge due to my use of them as clone troopers…’
[If it helps, none of us really have a soul until certain conditions are met.]
‘I know, but still.’
[Anyways, so…around the time, I had wanted them to be emboldened with as much desire as possible… might’ve neglected a reaction when I did though.]
‘What kind of reaction?,’ Zhen Liu asked, despite gaving a distinctive idea of what was going to be the answer.
[Well…since their body’s were modified with the power of lust, it made them more susceptible to end up creating cores with a focus on lust…so…when they decided to…enflame the feelings of lust in their respective targets…]
‘Okay, I see where this going and wow, just…wow.’
[Desires come in all size, shapes and forms. It’s just easier getting the ones associated with sex.]
‘You’re not wrong, but still…’
______________Meanwhile…______________
[Wait a minute…did…did the new kaijin just inform the maestro…that those trio of dumbasses…just…just…]
[Almost fucked their brains in instead of out?,] Razorstella interjected. [Yes, yes they did.]
[I don’t get it,] Spring Brawler added.
[Is it because we don’t have the anatomy for sex or-]
[I mean, how can they be developing cores based on lust, if they didn’t even finish doing the do?]
[Oh…no clue.]
_____________________________________
[You’re not wrong, Paralust, but you forgot an important detail,] the MarbleGal zako suddenly interjected, sounding a bit spicier than she did moments ago. [Our core development is incomplete.]
[Yeah! What she said!,] CopperGal added.
[Oh?,] Blazejudicator: Paralust went with genuine curiosity. [Pray tell, how?]
‘Oh no.’
Zhen Liu for his part wasn’t that curious, because he had a general idea as to why their cores were incomplete…and if he was right about that guess, then [Chaos] was a significantly more straightforward than he had anticipated.
(Un)fortunately, he was right.
[Because of some weird knock, our honeys couldn’t finish what they started,] WoodenGal said in confirmation of what Zhen Liu feared. [Instead, their desires turned into waves of pain.]
‘Oh good gods…wait a minute…’
[Not only that, but since we were supposed to fluff the hosts with powerful desires, we got pumped full of those incomplete feelings! Meaning we have incomplete cores,] CopperGal added, as low humming sound began to emante from her hands.
[So the three of us figured that if we could just get to the ones who filled us with all these incomplete desires and finish the job, we’ll become full fledge kaijin,] MarbleGal finished all while a grinding sound of stone against stone could be heard from her kneeled legs.
[Which is why, we’re very sorry about this, but…]
[ULTIMATE POCKET SAND!]
[Whoa!,]
[Ah! My eyes!]
[We don’t have those!]
[Oh yeah…,]
‘Of course they did something stupid…’
As soon as they had fun ished confessing to their crimes of planned passion, the Gal-Em Force zakos proceeded to pool their abilities for the sole purpose of blinding Zhen Liu, Blazejudicator and Paleo Punks by creating a “smokescreen” of [Chaos].
Granted, that “smokescreen” was made by infusing [Chaos] into crushed rock dust, sawdust, tree pollen and accompanied with a loud gonging sound. So…it worked way better than anticipated, but wasn’t as inhibitory as was needed.
[See ya!]
[Our husbands are over there, go!]
[Yeah!]
After releasing their combined improvised flash bang, the GalEm zakos attempted to bolt right pass Zhen Liu, Blazejudicator and the Paleo Punks as quickly as their legs could take them. Unfortunately, they didn’t get too far.
‘Blazejudicator?’
[On it.]
Before the GalEm zakos got too far, Blazejudicator had ditched their [Paralust] form to take one that was a bit chubbier looking, masculine and characterized by a light blue flame. From the brief display window that appeared, Zhen Liu saw that [Paralust] had become [Parasloth].
[Sloth shot.]
Fwip, fwip!
[Eeek!]
[Uh oh…]
The next thing any of the GalEm zakos knew, a small dart of light blue flame nailed them in the back of the head and all three of them proceeded to trip and faceplant into the ground at the same time. The three zakos then proceeded to produce a sound Zhen Liu didn’t expect to hear in about a million years.
‘Wait a minute…are they snoring?’
[Power of Sloth, Executor. One good dose and even someone as energetic as Hurricroak will end up counting sheep for hours on end,] Blazejudicator boasted.
‘Huh…neat.’
[Right?]
Zhen Liu stared at the now unconscious trio of feminine zakos, his brain still trying to wrap around the idea that these guys somehow developed sentience through the sheer power of being blueballed.
A part of him thought to just end this absurd storyline by dismissing the trio and turning them back to normal zakos or at least seal them away in marble form.
Another part of him though…saw an opportunity.
Because not only were these three on their way into becoming kaijin, but he just so happened to have the source of their desires locked away in a cell awaiting their interrogation.
‘Hmmm.’
And if there’s one thing Zhen Liu had learned from life, is that it was easier to extract information from someone who was thinking with the head found below their necks, not above it.
Plus, it would help him ensure more than one set of loyalties anyways.
‘I just wish these girls didn’t this whole spies trio bullshit,’ Zhen Liu griped before contacting the curators to make some arrangements.
…
‘So, I’m gonna assume you both saw and hear everything that went down in the holding cells?’
‘Of course.’
=The last time it happened, over a dozen new “mystic physiques” got introduced into the world, all aquatic themed though.=
‘That…that explains some things…regardless! Did you guys by any chance figure out the identities and anything relevant to those trio of would-be spies that these GalEms seem obsessed over?’
=We made sure to start poking their minds for information after we learned about the goal of these rogue zakos. What we found ranges from mildly interesting to deeply harrowing.=
‘Ominous, why?’
‘Of course,’ Zhen Liu sighed after realizing he was no dealing with more consequences of his actions. Honestly, he was starting to understand why most villainous overlords “cut loose ends.” But alas, he didn’t have the heart to kill in cold blood…yet.
‘Okay, that’s the who, can I please get a why?’
<=Well...remember that crazy masked opera singer from a while back? The one who's face you kicked off?=>
‘The one that Razorstella kicked you-oh…she wants payback, I’m assuming?’
=From what we dug up, these three idiots were hired by some shadowy organization associated with that woman to try and find information on you. Well, the kaijin to be more specific.=
‘Hired?’
‘Huh, that…is surprisingly wholesome. Good for them.’
‘But now they’re in my hands and now I have to figure out what to do with them…hmm…’
