The last place I visited before we left was the fairy spring. It was only a five-minute walk from the mansion, but it truly was a different place. The magic had already taken hold, and the spring was steadily growing more concentrated. Apparently, a half dozen fairies had found their way to the spring. They were flying around it seemingly without a care in the world.

When I appeared, they hid from me, but a certain fairy flew out in front. As she flew towards me, she grew to full-size and I recognized her immediately.

“Astria?”

Astria smiled gently as she stepped toward me. Her appearance was much different than the dark fairy I remembered from the dungeon. All of the darkness which had warped her features was gone, and her beauty came out in waves. Although I never would have called Celeste undeveloped, something about how the queen held herself screamed an adult maturity that her daughter didn’t possess.

Her beauty was clear, and she held herself in a way that exuded a great deal of sex appeal. It was enough to stun me as she approached. That’s why I didn’t mount any defense when she wrapped her arms around me and her lips met mine. Her tongue didn’t hesitate to dart into my mouth. My head buzzed dizzily, and I felt a bit like when I was under the siren’s spell. Except, I had felt no sense of danger, and thus I quickly grew lightheaded.

Our kissing grew more furious, and my hands went for her breasts. Meanwhile, her hands dropped to my pants, starting to unbuckle them. Just as things started to get hot, a voice broke me out of this strange moment.

“Mother! What are you doing!” That voice was none other than Celeste.

She flew into a gap between the two of us, if there even was one at this point, and then exploded to full size, pushing the pair of us apart. The kiss broke away, and my mind finally started to come back to reason. As soon as I realized I had almost violated Celeste’s mother right in front of her, a ferocious blush covered my cheeks.

“C-Celeste… this, I’m sorry!”

I was afraid that Celeste would be angry at me, but when she turned around, she looked more worried than angry.

“I-I’m sorry, Master. I didn’t think mom would act this way.”

“What do you mean? What’s going on?”

As we spoke, Celeste had her hands on her mother, but Astria barely looked at her. Instead, her eyes were on me, and they held a glint like a woman in love. She looked like if Celeste wasn’t holding her, she’d pounce on me again.

Celeste blushed. “Mother was severely damaged after the destruction of the Karr Dungeon. However, Karr sacrificed his life and used it so Mother could have a new life, which was how she was able to return to me. Regrettably, darkness had taken its toll on poor mother’s psyche… and now she’s stuck in a state like a child. Although she still has the power of a fairy queen, my mother’s mind has turned simple!”
