Chapter 821: 809
Title: Karnilla's Passion
'Well, such dedication might even make me tearful,' Nik gulped slightly and looked at the walls of the cavern. Unlike the other dark, crumbly interior with dampened lighting, the innermost cavern was well-lit, thanks to the opening in the middle of the ceiling. Meanwhile, the walls themselves were smoothened. The difference in the most basic of infrastructure was indicative of how much effort was directed to the innermost cavern.
But as stated the most basic.
A beautifully adorned canopy bed was placed in the middle. The bed frame seemed to be made of unknown wood, but it glimmered around the area where natural light reflected off of it. A turquoise bed sheet spread over the thick mattress while the bed poles supported the circular canopy with a raised crown. The covers of the canopy were light purple with turquoise ornaments and the similar curtains were loosely tied to the bedposts.
Till now, everything was tasteful.
And then, Nik gazed at the human-sized Balder pillow cover. And then one wall of the cavern, directly in front of the headboard of the bed, layered with images of Balder...
'Ew... that's one naked balder... no, two... oh, I didn't know he has a goddamn mole... how the heck did Karnilla even get such a pose? No self-respecting man will ever pose like that... clearly, I already have...' Nik pursed his lips when he realized he wasn't as self-respecting as he thought himself to be.
"Impressed? Wall of Balder. I planned to mark the entire surface of Nornheim with a very large image of Balder's face to express my passion... but I was vehemently opposed by the Sisters..." Karnilla clicked her tongue.
"Are you close with the sisters?" Nik inquired curiously.
"You know them?" Karnilla frowned.
"Yeah," Nik nodded with an amused smile, "They paid me a visit."
"Well, it must have been a fortunate one then because I don't know of anyone who has survived their... surprise visits..." Karnilla sighed.
"They surprise others often?" Nik frowned.
"No. Only when they think that a person or a group is threatening... ugh, the path of Ragnarok," Karnilla shook her head, "Anyway, I have not called you to discuss topics of Asgard's destruction. In fact, before Ragnarok strikes, I wish to have Balder kissing my feet with love!"
Her eyes flared slightly with a magical trail leaking and her breasts heaved up.
"Sure. What about him?" Nik looked around. Aside from the bed, there was a natural pond with a small exit connected to an unknown source.
"Is there any place to sit?" Nik inquired while Karnilla shrugged.
"Sit on the bed."
"Sure." Nik agreed instantly.
"Now, when you said that it will be clear that Balder has feelings for me or not... what did you mean?" Karnilla sat next to him and inquired curiously. Her gaze and body's posture suggested that at some level, Karnilla already knew. In fact, it would have been quite an exaggeration if Karnilla happened to be a naive and 'curious' gal. Something that even Nik's heightened luck couldn't provide him with.
"It all depends on the lengths you're willing to take," Nik spoke quite calmly. The situation would only be weird if he makes it to be since Karnilla didn't feel any pressing need to bang someone other than Balder. Nik did, and if he made any awkward comments now, he might as well slap himself in the face and kiss this chance goodbye.
"Lengths I'm willing to take," Karnilla mused.
"Did you try this on someone else?" Karnilla suddenly questioned.
"Well... oh, yeah, I did," Nik nodded as he recalled his previous relationships. In fact, none of them were quite straightforward.
"How did it turn out?" Karnilla narrowed her gaze.
"I have Loki somehow interested in myself and Odin's eldest daughter. You tell me? And isn't Balder supposed to be Angela's younger sibling? In terms of hopping up and down the result of All-Father's hard work, I'm ahead of you."
Karnilla's expression grew dazed for a moment.
"Then what about the result? If the result is undesirable, what should I do?" Karnilla posed.
"Any ordinary person would tell you to move on. It's healthy, after all," Nik narrowed his gaze and his presence seemed particularly striking to Karnilla at the moment, "But we aren't ordinary, are we? We don't like health in our life."
His whisper seemed to resonate with Karnilla, "Without a little destruction in life, how can you actually have fun? So, if you find the result undesirable, try again. Loosen your lengths. Throw baits. Use force or coaxing. Tell me, have you ever slept with Balder?"
"I almost did... well, I did, or at least, I thought I did. Turns out, it was Loki trying to cheer me up. It... was my third millennium birthday," Karnilla sighed while hee shoulders slumped down. Somehow, she felt easier when talking to Nik.
"I'd pay to watch that..." Nik mumbled internally.
"Interesting," Nik responded with a plain expression.
Karnilla glanced at Nik before inquiring.
"Could you be thinking about Loki and Me? Does that make you jealous?" Karnilla's gaze widened curiously and her thoughts wandered if Balder would have the reaction she hoped.
"Jealous?" Nik looked at Karnilla strangely but seeing the twinkle in her eyes, Nik's gaze turned profound.
'Well, I'm not slipping anything in her drink or forcing her, or hypnotizing her, so my moral points are checked.'
Nik thought for a moment before nodding.
Karnilla and Loki? Nik didn't give a single damn about something that had happened many, many years ago. He wouldn't have given a damn even if it happened one day before Loki met him. And Loki's relationship wouldn't irk him at all until he actually sac up and invites her into the harem.
That's how casual relations work.
But letting Karnilla on was one of the happiest coincidences in Nik's life.
"Well, I think that given Loki's relationship with the Asgardian royalty... your one-night stand with Loki might have an opposite result on Balder. You need to find someone else... being with whom can make Balder as uncomfortable as it makes me while thinking about you and Loki."
Karnilla pondered for a few seconds with a deep frown.
Nik Meanwhile took the chance to observe her again, at a closer proximity. She was by no way extremely curvaceous as Loki or others according to her height, which is similar to Hela, but her magnificent charm made up for the lack of curves. The hints of wrinkles even seemed to be spread in a way that made her drip with irresistible attraction.
Unlike Amora, Karnilla did not need a magical gaze or scent to bring a weak-willed man to his knees, just her presence alone is enough.
"Maybe Thor..." Karnilla muttered.
"No relatives of Balder," Nik sighed.
'Seriously, woman! You dat deep into Blondes?' Nik groaned. He certainly considered himself to be an eye candy but if it came to certain tastes such as liking blondes then Nik cannot do anything about it. He liked to see himself in black hair.
"Understandable... then who?" Karnilla began mumbling a few names under her breath and then shook her head slightly every now and then.
'Welp, I tried the indirect approach. Should I give the direct one a try?'
Nik was confident. As long as he could get Karnilla hooked on his 'taste', she would only want more. That's how lust bloodlines work and that's why lust-related bloodlines are so easily targeted. Isn't Incubus and Succubus bloodline from Infernal Paradise in ruin? Why would so many individuals attack the top Incubus and Succubus bloodline if not for fear and envy?
While Nik started to think of a way to breach the topic with his you-know-what, Karnilla glanced towards Nik and frowned.
"Say, if the two of us do this. How will Balder know about it?"
Nik blinked and without any hesitation, he whispered a spell, and a violet, fist-sized globe appeared above Nik's palm.
Letting the globe float in front of Karnilla, Nik watched the queen observe the spell.
"A recording spell?" Karnilla muttered.
"It seems feasible. But... if this doesn't work, you said about baiting and forcing. What does that mean?"
"It means fooling Balder and sleeping with him using any means possible," Nik shrugged.
He didn't like dwelling in double standards. Since he had already forced himself on a few, he would definitely advise the same to like-minded individuals.
"Hmm..." Hesitation flickered in Karnilla's gaze.
"Well, do you have any prospective man in mind to make Balder jealous over?" Nik inquired.
"Not yet. I need someone who Balder already envies!" Karnilla's expression brightened as if something clicked in her mind, "The only way to make Balder passionate for me is to mix pleasure with pain. Balder isn't defeated by many from his generation so we need to find someone who can defeat him and take everything away from him! And when Balder sees me taken, he'll think of me as his and feel for me!"
She locked gazes with Nik with such passion that he could only chuckle.
What can he say?
This wasn't a bad idea.
After all, it was Balder that was going to suffer for this twisted form of love, not Nik.
"Do you know someone?" Nik inquired.
At this time, Karnilla shook her head.
"Aside from combat mastery, Balder is a skilled Sorcerer with unrivaled ability to manipulate light in Asgard. His ability, like Thor, extends to other realms, too. So not many can defeat him. Especially in Asgard."
"Oh," Nik suddenly snickered. His body made of eternal ice had already been reverted to his normal state but now, his muscles suddenly twisted. His entire being trembled and his height seemed to have increased dramatically. Still, his face remained unchanged and striking.
"You?!" Karnilla gasped.
"What if there's a new addition to Asgardian ranks?" Nik gave a deep and low chuckle. He had already scanned and assimilated Thor's physique. He even had Angela's copy, too. So physically being an Asgardian wasn't hard at all.
"Well, how confident are you in beating Balder?" She frowned.
"I made Thor crush himself," Nik recalled his rather strange battle with Thor and shook his head, "So? What do you think? Is Thor stronger than Balder?"
"Yes."
"Then it will be easy."
Nik smiled.
Thinking for a moment, Nik turned to the magical camcorder and inquired curiously.
"If you would like, we can store a few shots in here. I may use it on Balder soon enough."
Karnilla looked at the globe.
Soon, her eyes shifted towards Nik while her lips pursed up with a slightly devious smirk.
'Whoohooo!'
Nik didn't have any high expectations. It was probably going to be the first base, but it was a start. And he achieved all of this without his bloodline abilities making him especially proud since his talents were suppressed due to an almost equal level of bloodline in Asgardians, too.

"Amazing teleportation skills," Ray smiled as he looked at Balder. Next to him stood a ravishing figure in a loose robe with the clothing being translucent as a gauze. Her skin pink and her body plump with two short wings sticking out of her hips and a long tail tore out of the clothing.
Balder's gaze was dazed at this point.
"Hmm, he's way easier than Heimdall and Odin! Oh, after this, can we finally try Thor?" Yar inquired with an expectant gaze. Her eyes wide but before Ray could answer, both of their nostrils twitched.
Blinking, both of them looked at each other before a pleased smirk touched their lips.
"Who would have thought, huh?" Yar giggled, her pink pupils turning heart-shaped.
"Come on, keep it in your pant...ies. Where are your panties?" Ray looked down.
"Tossed them aside," Yar shrugged.
"Well, this is much easier now," Ray shrugged and waved his hand. Instantly, Yar pouted but her figure turned into a brilliant form of light before dissipating into Ray.
---
"Hmm?"
Nik gripped Karnilla's shoulder and slightly pushed her back. Their lips parted and Karnilla still had her eyes closed. A clear look of surprise covering her face and her breathing soft and slow.
'Well... this isn't good,' Nik's nostrils twitched. He could smell this fragrance from miles away and it just suddenly appeared in front of the entrance of Karnilla's residence.
'How is Ray here?'
Nik's mind instantly banged up and he recalled one particular news.
Odin's recovery.
'Odin's a man... Ray is a man... who hunts men. But... nah, it couldn't possibly be... Odin is fucking scary. I've seen it from Thor's memories a true rank 6 individual... did Ray really?'
"Hmm? We have visitors... it's Balder!" Karnilla's eyes shone as she looked at Nik, "Hurry, mark me! At least, we have to let him know that I'm with someone else at the moment!"
'Ray and Balder? A succubus and the most handsome Asgard. Yeah, sweety, his ship has sailed long ago,' Nik didn't have any doubts just like Ray wouldn't doubt Nik's desire for women.
