Chapter 27 by CMW CMW

Is it?

Yes but also soooo much more

“Dunno. I hope, be a shame otherwise given how much we used for it.”

“Wait, you don’t know what that is?” she asked. “Didn’t you plan all this out?”

“I did but inspiration sort of hit me,” I said.

“I’m gonna need you to explain,” Iris asked.

“Well, I didn’t lie, Drewchel will approve of her trying to anticipate me,” I said. “But more than that, if you wanna get the most out of a goddess, there is only one thing you can ask for.”

Iris scratched her chin. “Is that something I am supposed to be able to guess?”

“Maybe. Think about it for a second, if you want a god to give you the best gift, what do you ask for?”

Her face scrunched for a bit but she eventually gave up. “I got nothing. I can’t even imagine what a god is capable of.”

I raised my finger. “Exactly! So I asked for her to figure it out! She is way more capable than me!”

“You essentially dared a god to think of a gift for you! That’s…. ” Iris paused. “I think it is a good thing that Lillian didn’t hear any of this! She’d probably be upset! You tricked her goddess!”

I laughed as I began to use analyze on the potion. Ooooo. Wow, this was definitely worth the trade. I smiled thinking about it. “I can put this to some excellent use.”

“What is it?” she asked.

“Divinity, almost pure. But oh yeah, this is some good stuff, oh right hair care. Yeah, this will work! Grab that bowl! And get me some water please.”

She handed me the bowl with the original blackberry mixture and I filled it with water and mixed it up until I got basically a light purple tint to plain water. I then uncorked the potion bottle. Just… gotta be… careful. Just one drop! And done!

The water began glowing. “And now, just dip your hair into it.”

She looked nervous. “What is it gonna do?”

“It’s divinity, it’s gonna be awesome!” I said.

“Okay,” she said as she reached down and dipped her braid into it. As if her hair was a dry towel it began sucking up the water. Which… I mean, it was essentially a dry, divine dry but same core idea. As the divine water flowed up her hair, she began getting purple highlights as well as her hair began to shine with the splendor of a goddess. Or demi goddess at least.

I looked at the bowl. About a spoonful left. Enough for her eyebrows later. “How does it feel?”

“I can feel it in my scalp, it tingles,” she said.

“Oh yeah! Told you, good shit, is probably enchanting the hair follicles at this very moment. Divinity of this level will probably last your entire natural life,” I said.

“What!” she said as her face went pink. She touched her hair. “So soft. So.. wonderful. I love it.”

“Yeah, your hair is divine now. It should react to your mind. Meaning your new hair will grow in whatever color you want. And your hair shouldn’t be something a normal can cut, unless you allow it.”

“My hair is like armor!” she asked.

I nodded. “This isn’t like a blessing. This is true divinity.”

Her face went from pink to deep red. “I… how was I supposed to know asking for hair help was gonna become this!”

I grabbed her and held her close. “Your my sister, right? I am happy. Like,” I paused and I felt my heart skip a beat. “Like my whole life I had spent trying use my knowledge and magic to help the world. Fighting threats to the kingdom. Stopping bad guys. Doing all this grand stuff. But for the first time in my life. I am finally able to just. Make something for pretty hair. Something that makes my sister smile. I am so happy right now.”

She held me close. “I am so glad Master picked us both!”

“Me too,” I said. “Master did want to see me. I should probably go see him. Watch Lillian for me, okay?”

“Course,” she said with a smile.

I was becoming more familiar with the castle layout. Actually, oh that makes sense. I realized that the Master’s chambers were pretty much always the same distance away. That meant that his room was at the center of the zone. Which was also where the Golden Idol needed to be. So he was protecting it. Hmm, I looked at the divinity potion in my hand. Might be able to help him protect it with this.

Looking closely I noticed that the fluid level was lower than expected. Oh.. more of the bottle was glass after her enchantment. The inside wasn’t as empty as it was before she did her thing. That drop actually lowered it by an amount I could see. I couldn’t be sure the exact number of drops. But definitely limited. Makes sense, even ten drops would be an amazing gift.

The Master opened the door to his room. “My little seer. What brings you here?”

“I’m afraid I have some worrying things to share,” I said.

“Hmm?” he asked as he patted his bed.

“The prisoner is Lady Brenda, she is quite famous and strong and I know her personally,” I said.

“Celeste did mentioned that, but is that really so worrying?” he asked. “She had been held captive for two months.”

“It isn’t her that I am so worried about, it is me,” I said.

“What do you mean?” he asked as he squeezed my breast. “You are loyal, right?”

I gasped a bit but tried to focus. “Yes Master. I am loyal, but well, let me guess. When you captured me, my robes. Did they have any magic components attached to the belt?”

He shook his head. “Not a one. Is that an issue?” He pinched my nipple.

“Yes!” I said trying to remain on topic. “I can’t remember the two weeks before I arrived. And I, a powerful wizard came to charmed area without my weapons? And one of my friends was here before me?”

“Those are a bit odd when you say them like that,” he said. “What is your theory? That you erased your own memory?”

I nodded. “Yes! I should prepare divination magic at once, to find out what how to discover what my old self was planning.”

He nodded. “My sweet little seer. So much devotion. Hmm. What do you need?”

“Jaka flowers,” I said. Whatever spell I cast before, it was likely done with the understanding I would try and undo it. There was only one spell I could be sure to not fail. Jaka flowers properly prepared, an offering the sisters loved more than anything. They accepted his dried flowers. They knew of my situation. I mean of course they did. They knew everything. So if I was to have any chance. I needed Jaka flowers.

“Those are rare, we can’t order them,” he said.

“I know, but I ordered some material to be delivered tomorrow, including some scrying materials. I can use that to locate Jaka flowers.”

“Hmm. We were planning to visit a town in a few days, would that work?” he asked.

I nodded. “Sooner is better, but ultimately I am your tool my Master, if you wish to wait a few days, than is what we will do. I imagine you need to make preparations with the Idol?”

He nodded. “Transporting it while keeping the charm up but not charming everyone else is tricky. And obviously-” he paused.

“I can’t be trusted to leave the charm field to collect Jaka flowers,” I said. “I haven’t been here a week, it is likely that I would rebel.”

He touched my chin. “You are that aware of your own mind?”

I nodded. “Once my heart and head aligned, regaining some of my thinking skills was easy enough.”

“But then you know that you are under my spell?” he asked.

“I am. I am grateful. For the first time in my life, I am enjoying life to a level I never imagined. If having this means being yours. Then keep me Master. Keep me and never let me go.”

He squeezed me tightly. “I will then Rosemary. My little seer. Oh yes, what about the leg belt you requested.”

“I cannot deny the possibility that I have outside help. Or that Brenda may try and escape to get me out of the charm field,” I said. “Without magic I can’t hope to fight. I need the belt to fight for you.”

He smiled. “Than I grant you permission my little seer. I will inform Celeste at once. I command you! Do your best! Keep my mansion safe for all eternity!”

“Yes Master!” I screamed. I would! I don’t care who I have to fight! Brenda, or the king! The three sisters! Even my old self! I will protect this slice of happiness.

(Author's Note: So, I got some ideas for how the girls get gifted with Divinity. Obviously Iris already got her drop of divinity. But comments people! If you have an idea for what a girl should get with her drop! Let me know in the comments. If your idea is great and I would love to help bring you guys into blessing these girls! <3)

Anything else before dinner?
