Devil Fruit Powers In The Tower Of God - Chapter 51
On the 1st Floor, Headon was silently staring at a black-suited man whose face was being obstructed by a shadow.
A few months after Loki had left the Tower, he had returned back. Headon wasn’t at his Floor at that time, but he had sensed there is an intruder there. Quickly he had rushed back only to find Loki silently standing there.
Headon didn’t know why he had returned, and despite knowing that he couldn’t do anything to him, he stayed there to keep a close watch on him. He couldn’t prevent Loki from doing what he wished, but he at least wanted to know what he was planning.
A few years had passed, and the two had stayed on the 1st Floor while silently staring at each other without saying a word. Headon was starting to lose his patience and couldn’t take it anymore.
“Why are you here?” He questioned him.
“I’m glad you asked,” Loki exclaimed, and a table and two chairs appeared in front of him. A teapot and two cups appeared on the table, and Loki sat down on one of the chairs. “I came to see how you are doing.”
Headon wanted to rip his nonexistent hair hearing him. “Why didn’t you say anything then? We’ve been here for a few years!”
“You are as sharp as a spoon, aren’t you? I was just waiting for the host to greet me.” Loki casually replied while pouring some tea in both cups.
Headon let a sigh while thinking how much he wanted to punch him in the face. He sat down and drank from the cup Loki poured him. Feeling the bitter taste of the drink, he nearly spilled it. Headon looked towards Loki in annoyance. “This isn’t tea.”
“Well, it’s alcoholic tea, but tea nonetheless,” Loki replied while sipping from his own cup.
“The other divine beings are onto your plan, aren’t they?” Headon questioned him in annoyance.
“Nah, they still aren’t aware of what I’m doing,” Loki responded. The rest of the divine beings truly didn’t know what he was planning. Well, there was one that possibly knew, but that one would definitely keep quiet about this.
“Then, why are you hiding here?” Headon asked him. He really wanted the dreadful God out of the Tower.
“I told you. I came here to see how you are doing.” Loki lied. He was actually hiding here. There were a couple divine beings that really wanted his head right now, and he didn’t really want to face them. Loki had also already dealt with everything outside the Tower, so he was perfectly fine with spending his time here and annoying the rabbit.
Headon was boiling with anger on the inside, but his face had no change of expression.
“So, how have you been?” Hearing him, Headon really wanted to kill Loki at this point, but alas, he didn’t have the power to do so. Loki, on the other hand, could actually annihilate him. However, unlike the rest of the Guardians, Headon’s body will be reformed after his death, so technically, he was immortal.
With gritted teeth, Headon replied. “Fine.”
“Aren’t you going ask me how I’m doing?” Loki asked with a mischevious smile.
“No, I don’t want to know.” Headon refused to play his game.
“Well, I’ve been doing great recently, thank you for asking. Do you want a cookie?” Loki asked him, and a jar of cookies appeared on the table.
Headon pulled a cookie out of the jar and put it in his mouth. Unfortunately, he nearly shattered his teeth from trying to eat it. Headon just wanted to cry at this point. Never in his life had he been treated like this.
The 28th Floor was one giant wasteland. The residents of the Floor lived in tall, blue, thin buildings that rise up into the sky. The windows of all the buildings had similar dimensions.
However, not everyone was able to afford to live in those tall buildings, and those that couldn’t afford it, lived in a residential area that was filled with tents.
The Test on the 28th Floor takes place in the only area on the Floor that has flora and greenery. Two teams would compete in locating a key that is separated into three parts and use that key to unlock a box in the middle. The first team that does so gets to advance onto the 29th Floor, and a team could have at most eleven Regulars on it.
Since the 28th Floor wasn’t owned by any of the 10 Great Families, there wasn’t anything that special about it. However, there were a few high-class hotels that had exceptional chefs working for them.
Lumen’s team had been staying on the 28th Floor for about two weeks now and had to wait for two more before they could take on the Test.
The whole group had gathered in an apartment. They were sharing drinks and having fun after a hard day of training. Lumen didn’t allow anyone to slack off and forced them to train every day. He wanted to create a group that’s even stronger than Urek’s due to a few reasons.
One of them being, that he was competitive by nature, and wanted to outdo the blonde Irregular.
Another was that he was planning on taking drastic actions against FUG in the future. Lumen already harbored a grudge against the organization, and he planned on taking out all the high ranking members of it. Since destroying FUG entirely wasn’t in the realms of possibility. They were more like a religion, so there will always be someone else to pick up their mantle.
Lumen also planned on going against a couple of the 10 Great Families and Zahard in the future. The two family heads, Gustang and Blossom, had both abandoned Diana and her sister, and he was going to pay them back for that. He didn’t know if he would kill them, but that would mostly depend on Diana’s choice.
Zahard, on the other hand, he was definitely going to kill in the future. Lumen had initially promised Diana that he would do it only since she was stronger than him and because she said he would train him. He didn’t actually plan on doing it, but after spending time with her and getting closer to her, he set his mind on killing Zahard.
Lumen couldn’t accomplish all of that on his own, and that’s why he was pushing his teammates every day to get stronger. He had also ended up caring for them and not thinking of them as simple chess pieces that he could throw away at any point. They were his friends, and he wanted them to be powerful for what is to come in the future.
The group was having a pleasant time when Lumen suddenly sensed someone observing them. Discreetly, he looked outside the window in the room and saw a man with black, curly hair standing on a building opposite of theirs.
The aura he felt from the man was immense, and Lumen was sure that he is a Ranker. He gave his group an excuse and left the apartment.
Lumen formed the metal armor around him and easily reached where the black-haired man. The man had a carefree smile on his face as he examined Lumen. There are very few in the Tower that could make him serious after all, he was Ha Jinsung, the grandson of Ha Yurin, the head of the Ha Family, and was within the top 100 Rankers in the Tower.
“I just wanted to check up on my disciple’s friends, but I didn’t expect to meet someone like you here. Those old fogies sure like keeping secrets from me.” Jingsung laughed out casually.
“Who are you?” Lumen questioned him with a serious tone.
“You don’t know me? Huh, so you aren’t from FUG then. Interesting.” Jingusung replied. Just hearing FUG, Lumen had already prepared for a fierce battle.
“Bah, don’t act so serious. I’m not here to fight. Like I said, I came here to check up on my disciple’s friends.” Jingsung waved his hand.
“But now… I’m interested in you. You have the same armor as another one of my disciples, but you aren’t a FUG member. Quite intriguing.” Jingsung stated with a smile. “Almost makes me want to rip that armor of your face to see who you are.”
Jingsung didn’t receive a response from Lumen, and he felt him taking control of the surrounding Shinsoo. “Jeez, I said I’m not here to fight, why are you acting like this.” He said while shaking his head.
“Then why are you checking up on Bam’s friends?” Lumen questioned him.
“Well, the boy is too talented that I ended up caring… You know that Bam is alive?” Jingsung said with narrowed eyes. That’s not something that he had foreseen. Very few knew that the Irregular had actually survived.
“A lot of people survive when they were meant to die.” Lumen vaguely responded, but Jingsung had a wide smile after he heard him.
“You…” Jingsung already had an idea who the armored man is after hearing his response. “That’s an interesting set of events.”
“Would you look at that. Two Irregulars were confirmed to have died, yet both of them are alive.” Jingsung laughed out, but Lumen didn’t confirm his suspicions and silently stared at him.
“And Karaka was so sure that you died. Hah, I guess he has been slacking off lately. I did tell him that Bam would catch up and overtake him, but he didn’t believe me.” Jingsung shook his head. Lumen again didn’t respond and kept quiet.
“Well, then. I guess I have no reason to stay here any longer. I trust you could keep them safe in case FUG takes action against them. I don’t want to see my disciple sad, you see.” Jingsung said.
“Unless a Ranker comes after them, they will be fine. And if a Ranker comes, I will send him to his death.” Replied Lumen.
“Oh, I’m sure you will. After all, you even survived against Karaka.” Jingsung chuckled. “I’ll make sure to keep your secret safe. Don’t want to ruin the surprise for those old fogies now, do we?”
Before Lumen could even respond, Jingsung had already disappeared from his spot. He let out a sigh of relief, knowing that he didn’t have to face him. Lumen didn’t know who that man was, but he felt threatened just being in front of him.
He had confidence in fighting Rankers and even Advanced Rankers since he had a secret weapon, but the man was definitely a High Ranker. Lumen wasn’t sure that he would be able to compete with him even with his secret weapon. He also was developing an extremely dangerous technique, but he didn’t know how well it will work against a High Ranker.
Relieved that he avoided conflict with a High Ranker, he returned back to his group.
Another week passed since the group had arrived on the 28th Floor.
Lumen was currently walking towards one of the high-class hotels. Tiana, dressed in a purple dress that was closely stuck to her body, was holding onto his arm while walking beside him.
She had wanted to ask him out for quite the time now, but she didn’t have the courage to do it. Lumen had sensed her frustration and asked her what’s wrong. After hesitating for a moment, Tiana had told him she wanted to go on a date with him. Lumen didn’t even hesitate for a moment, before agreeing to take her out.
After entering the hotel, the two were escorted to their private booth. They had a very good time while sharing stories of their lives.
Tiana told him about her life in the Middle Area. She was abandoned there as a child and had to live as an outlaw since she didn’t have a residential card. Tiana had a hard life growing up, but she was happy that she was now climbing the Tower with Lumen.
Lumen, on the other hand, told her stories from Earth. He didn’t have much of them, but he told her how he grew up and ended up working as a hired gun.
Their date was coming to an end when Tiana bȧrėly uttered. “I… I’ve booked us a room.”
Normally, she wouldn’t have the confidence to say that, but after a few drinks, she managed to muster up her courage to do it.
“What did you say?” Lumen heard her clearly, but he wanted to tease her after seeing her reddened face.
“I got us room for the night,” Tiana said while her face turned as red as a tomato.
Without saying anything, Lumen grabbed her hand and led her towards the elevator. Feeling buŧŧerflies in her stomach, she pushed the buŧŧon for the floor where the room she booked was at.
After scanning her Pocket, the two entered the room. Tiana was extremely nervous since she didn’t know what she is supposed to do. She also didn’t want to do something stupid and ruin their relationship.
Her worries were for nothing, as she felt Lumen hug her and bring her closer to him. He kissed her soft lips, and she melted in his arms. Tiana was very inexperienced since this was her first kiss, but she followed his lead.
She felt his hands ċȧrėss her body as they slowly moved from her waist, down to her perky buŧŧ. Lumen squeezed her ample bottom, and Tiana’s body shivered in pŀėȧsurė from his touch. He picked her up and carried her to the bed.
//////Lemon start\
Tiana felt him break their kiss and saw the hungry look in Lumen’s eyes. Before she knew it, he had torn her purple dress, and she was lying there with only her purple undėrġȧrmėnts. He ripped her bra and leaned in to kiss her while his hands were fondling her ripe brėȧsts. Tiana hugged him tightly, hoping this would never end.
Lumen broke the kiss and saw the look of dėsɨrė in her eyes. He kissed her slender neck and slowly made his way down her body. Once he reached her brėȧsts and suċkėd on her nɨppŀė, her body trembled in excitement as she let out a mȯȧn. “Ahhhh.”
Tiana held his head and stroked his hair while her slender legs were hugging his waist. Lumen switched between her plump brėȧsts and continued moving down. He kissed her slim yet muscled stomach and finally reacher her lower parts.
Tiana’s purple pȧntɨės were torn apart like the rest of her clothes, and her moist and tight pussƴ was in his view. Once his tongue reached her wet vȧġɨnȧ, she clenched her toes in pŀėȧsurė and let out a mȯȧn. “Ohhhhh.”
With her hands stroking his hair, she lightly urged him closer. She couldn’t even put in words how good she felt and could only mȯȧn. “Ahhh.”
After pleasuring her by ŀɨċkɨnġ her moist pussƴ, he slowly stood up.
“Take me,” Tiana whispered, and Lumen had already removed his clothes. Before she knew it, his dɨċk had entered inside her, and she felt a slight amount of pain, but that was overshadowed by how much pŀėȧsurė she felt. “OHHHHH.”
Her pussƴ was tight, and she was squeezing her legs around him in ecstasy, as he kept pounding her over and over.
Lumen kept going faster and faster, and Tiana screaming louder and louder, overwhelmed by how good it felt. “Please. AHHH. Don’t stop. AHH.”
It didn’t take long before Tiana had already finished once. Her limbs were convulsing from the pŀėȧsurė, but Lumen was yet to finish. They continued their act of love, and Lumen was throwing her around the bed, switching positions from time to time.
Before he finished, they had spent a couple hours changing position after position. Tiana didn’t even know how many times she had finished at that point, but she knew this was the best experience in her whole life.
Once they were done, the two took a shower and cleaned their sweaty bodies. When they got back into the bed, Tiana hugged him tightly and fell asleep with a bright smile on her face.
//////Lemon end\
In the morning, Lumen woke up with Tiana sleeping on top of him and using his body as a pillow. Seeing her nȧkėd figure, he flipped her over and began another session with her. They took another shower together afterward, and they passed through the restaurant for a quick breakfast.
Lumen might have ripped her clothes, but she always carried another pair of clothes in her Pocket. The two returned to where they were staying on the 28th Floor, and Tiana directly moved in his room.
Two weeks quickly passed by, and it was time for Lumen’s team to take on the Test. Thanks to Emily, the opposing team was aware of exactly who they were up against, so they didn’t even bother trying. Lumen’s team was easily able to locate the three key parts and unlock the box.
With that, the group had advanced onto the 29th Floor.
