Chapter 82: The High Priestess
Chapter 82: The High Priestess
The morning next day, the group gathered before a ceremonial hall that was newly renovated right before the apocalypse. Its entrance had been decorated with religious art and symbols of the first flame, which gave the order an aura of magnificence.
While the group waited outside the door, a busty nun with portions of her long leg and thigh exposed on the side walked towards the group. The nun bowed to the mother and sister with respect and then greeted the rest of the group. Leo and Timmy recognized that she was the same nun that opened the door from the sermon other day.
“You boys prepared to feast your eyes? All the sisters here are young and pretty. I can introduce you two to a few. Especially you, little brother, you’re not going to get a girlfriend at this rate,” she was worried for Timmy’s future, sighed in defeat and posed a hopeless gesture at her little brother.
Timmy excitedly nodded his head; he was having a second thought about Emma. He never knew his sister could be this awesome and finally felt that he had a real elder sibling. Meanwhile, Leo wryly smiled at the remark; he just remembered the fact he kind of ruined Timmy’s first love.
“Mhem!” Anna demanded attention while she stood next to the nun. “This is Mary, a very reliable acquaintance of mine and my daughter’s.”
“Good morning, I am Mary, lady Anna and lady Emma’s direct subordinate. Pleasure to meet you all,” Mary had a unique charm in her smile.
“Me and mother need to help prepare the ceremony; Mary will take care of you guys in our stead. You can ask her anything. Enjoy the show~,” Emma said to the group and left with Anna for the back stage; but before she walked away, the sister was giving Timmy the eye signals to take this opportunity.
The group waited momentarily at the side while Timmy was all over Mary, trying to learn more about the girl. However, the nun remained unfazed and unperturbed by him simping for her dynamite body. Leo asked a few questions to the nun as well to ease the awkwardness, he wanted to know what it was like for her inside of the order.
Apparently, Mary was an ordinary girl that was scouted by Anna and was given the chance to awaken. After becoming an awakened human, she was able to support her crippled parents in this harsh world. She had always thanked the mother deep within her heart for the assistance when time was tough for her. The order of the first flame was also generous enough to provide support and trained her to use her new strength.
“Please follow me,” when the hall was finally accepting the audience, Mary stopped the group before they went on line.
Skipping to the front, the nun led the group inside the auditorium under everyone’s envious gaze. Judging by the way they were received by the personnel, it seemed like Mary was in a high standing as well. Everyone was seated in the VIP spots with a good vantage point. Mary chose to sit next to Leo; for some reason, the girl felt pleasant being next to him.
The interior of the hall was mostly dark under the dim lights. From the side of the wall and above, if one looked closely, one could see numerous candle-stands populated the auditorium. While waiting for the event to start, Samara embraced Leo’s arm within her ample asset, and leaned her head on the side of Leo’s shoulder. Seeing the woman wanting some affection, Leo patted her head with his other hand. The two looked like a lovely couple, while Reina looked like the younger sister that pouted for having her big brother stolen by a busty onee-san.

With a drop of a bell that vibrated the room, the candles began to light on fire row by row, illuminating the great hall. The audience gasped in awe at the inconceivable phenomena; the fires were all lit up by themselves, seemingly by the power of magic.
At the front of the stage, a line of tempting figures walked out alluringly to their positions. The audience came to awe once again at the thickness of them thighs that were clearly revealed by the masterful design of the order’s tailor. The voluptuous proportion of their chest and bust were amplified by the tight fabric stretching on their assets, pasting on their skin to reveal heavenly curves.
“Holy mother of thickness, damn they are thicc!!” Timmy couldn’t help but to spout out and Leo nodded his head in agreement. The order definitely knew what they were doing, and were really good at it; Leo approves with a secret thumbs up.
Slowly and quietly, the choir began to sing in verses of an unknown language, the soothing voices of the chorus remedied the tired hearts of all survivors within the hall. Leo could feel the gentle wave of energies propagating from the nuns singing the melody; using his vision, he saw the blue and yellowish streams seeping through people’s heads and revitalizing their minds.
He could tell the main conductor of the performance was just a single nun within the choir; she was borrowing the aura of her colleagues and propagating them to the audience. Continuing his observation, Leo thought it was a very interesting and skillful way of manipulating energies through the medium of sound, maybe he should start exploring some of the techniques himself. With his ability to perceive the colors, it should be easier to control the current of energy.
“Welcome, friends. Let us thank the graciousness of our lord and…,” An old man started his sermon, which surely once again that Leo and Timmy weren’t listening.
The two boys were still busy feasting their eyes on the rows of busty nuns, Timmy was already drooling. Leo was particularly impressed; he never saw this many female-awakened humans aside from his harem. The old man seemed to be no push over as well. It was no surprise that the order had such might as it matched their influences in the Central.
“At last, allow me the pleasure to present to you our lady. The high priestess herself will host the awakening ceremony!” The old man finally announced the cake of this event, the welcoming of new members and the awakening of several gifted individuals.
The bell rang once again, from the rear, an elegant divine presence arrived at the platform, escorted by two of her trusted confidants who shared the similar divine beauty as well.
“It’s mom and sis!” Timmy quietly shouted; the group was mildly surprised as well.
“Yes, Lady Anna and Lady Emma are extremely gifted and blessed by the flame. They are the high priestess’s only disciples and are extremely powerful on the field,” Mary spoke in admiration; everyone could tell the woman was trying to contain her excitement.
The high priestess was extremely tall and well endowed. Standing seven feet above the ground, the massive racks bounced heavily under the loosely dressed robe as she walked forward. The priestess certainly had an aura of divinity around her. However, her beauty seemed foreign and almost alien to the world.
Her tall figure and bountiful body reminded Leo of Zomi; but opposite to the big girl, the high priestess’s majestical and celestial aura was the polar opposite of Zomi’s piercing and blood thrilling presence.
The high priestess gave the old man a slight nod and moved towards her seat without saying a word, which was certainly odd. However, the old man, who was also a bishop, filled the role of spokesman and carried on the ceremony. This time, a group of young ladies and a few men were invited forward.
Before the high priestess, a small altar with a coiled sword fixed on a bowl was placed. Placing her hands below her oversized chest, a seed of fire appeared above her palm. She rested the fire on the altar and even gently caressed the tip of the flame before she let it go.
Under the guide of the bishop, a little girl walked towards the fire. She was the little girl from the sermon and she will be the first to link the fire from the group. The girl wanted to place her hand on the fire, but amusingly, the altar was too tall for her short figure. With a gentle motherly chuckle, the high priestess stood up and lifted the little girl up to her bosom. Her head was almost buried deep within the large mountains.
Undisturbed by the softness pressing on her cheek, the girl stared at the flame attentively and placed her hand above the yellow light. A tiny ember was found within the flame, it traveled through the surface of her body, seemingly surrounding her in fire, and eventually sunk under her skin. A ring of fire was then branded at the same location. Soon, the little girl fell unconscious, resting innocently on the two soft pillows behind her back.
The ceremony continued with the next candidate standing before the fire; Leo curiously watched them awakened by the spirit of the flame one by one. The boy still couldn’t quite figure out the exact process that took place, but he seemed to have more and more ideas that he could imitate at home.
