Devil's Delight! [Nizhuan/Calypso Training]

There was no time to waste then, right? The moment in which Calypso chose to liberate herself from the echoes of slavery her mind had enslaved in is the same instance in time where a crimson vortex opened up in the floor ahead of her. In this way did the likes of the Underworld's ruler emerge out of the abyss; setting her bloodied gaze on the sight of The Asthavon as her hair of blood, silver, and shade fluttered in the breeze.

"You must be Calypso. I've seen everything there is to see with you through the eyes of Nizhuan."

Compared to Nizhuan, the voice of Liu was far more relaxed in tone as she gave her Hell Beast a gentle rub on the head. Indeed, they were the same person, so how could the fondness of the circumstance not transfer into the heart of the devil? It is why her left hand then placed it palm on the top of Calypso's head; as if she were already familiar in relation to one another.

"So it's a pleasure to meet you in the flesh."

While taking a placid breath, the woman gazed down at her extended belly and chuckled for a moment.

"I will help mentor you from here on out, but give me a moment. I can't do it in this body...."

Now walking away from the two women, the red-eyed devil sat down on the ground lotus style, closed each of her eyes, and begin to meditate into a deep trance. Breathing in, breathing out; the scarlet and pale energies bled from her body like a stream of demonic beauty. In no time flat did a body of flesh, blood, and bone compromise itself from the extension of her demonic magic. While it was a far cry from Liu's ability to crush entire nations to the ground, having an extension of her body which was comparable to Calypso's own current power was more than enough to suffice the training.

The plan was to project the consciousness of Liu's mind into this body, utilize it as a medium to facilitate change, and keep her newborn safe as rows of barriers surrounded the woman's body. When these shields were finished forming, the earth around her lifted in the sky and what remained on the earth was this familiar of The Liberating Demon -- without her baby bump.

"I have to care for a little one, so I can't endanger my true body I'm afraid. But as it stands now: I don't think you truly care for such a thing, right? If it feels cheap, let me know. "

Even being in the vicinity of Liu made Nizhuan feel more whole. Their energies were in sync, she felt at peace and the face of the hell beast eased over into a smile as her other half rubbed her plum hair ever-so lovingly. Really, even in that moment, this mistress of hades wanted to merge; but knew it wasn't the best option right now with the baby on the way. It is why she was seen rubbing her own belly as she could feel every kick the demonic seed within did to Liu's natural body.

Still, that wasn't the focus for today. While they could get lost in babbling thoughts of babies and love, Nizhuan knew they were here for training. So, when her half threw her true self into the air, the hell beast quickly took flight as she knew it needed to be protected for the time being. Hence, she kept close to it in case any dramatic collateral damage or unforeseen effects took place with whatever Liu had in mind to further the training of the Asthavon.

"You will most likely have to clash against me again, but when she is finished with you, I believe we can test whatever transformation you are about to undergo out fully."

Even though she was much further away, Nizhuan's ability to project her voice came in handy as her giddy tone of speaking echoed far and wide. She was eager to get this next chapter started as she slipped portions of her consciousness into the body of Liu.

Sitting down in the lotus position, Liu motioned for Calypso to follow her. When that gesture took place, a circle of silver energy swirled around the two. This presence was filled with the nature of liberation as cool winds of a spring day blew around them; signifying that her energy was swelling to the surface. For all throughout Liu's hands did sparks of pale electricity begin to utter static noises into the air. Liberation Flux -- was coming.

"Just sit down and tell me all that you want to release. Speak your truths into this circle, let my energy bond with yours and I can liberate you from these hells within your mind."

Assured of herself, the demon spoke in a "matter-of"-fact" tone as her confidence, ease and serenity bled out in the air around them with a slight smile. Though, even in knowing all of that, the devil knew that her student did not understand what he powers could do. So, a further explanation was needed to get her comfortable with this process.

"I have the power to liberate souls, constructs, and objects in a physical and metaphysical sense. But, for it to have it's the most potent effect, I need to have a good idea of what I'm targetting. And, in your case, the universe has to hear you give me full permission to alter your being. If you can do that, I will unlock all that which restricts you."

And with those words spoken, it was up to Calypso to make whatever determination she could from that knowledge. All Liu was able to do now was observe, watch and try to comprehend where to take the next phase of their trainining based on the response she'd get from the Asthavon demon.

The liberation of the suppressed mind. This is the freedom that Calypso sought to experience throughout her whole essence. When those words of acknowledgment had been uttered out to the universe, Liu's body erupted into an array of crimson and pale light as they swirled around the two. With the color in her eyes soon turning to white, the devil then pressed forward with activating her power. By pressing forward on the forehead of the Asthavon, a sharp impulse of the liberating devil's power pierced straight into her essence and started the transformation of her inner self.

"Then be free."

In this way, Liu desired to put her sense of willpower to the ultimate test as all of the aspects of her inner ego would come crashing down on her at once. She would have to face all of the evils and light which plague and bless her mind. Crashing down would be the barriers of self, while a great wealth of new power would await her if she could otherwise sustain the amount of mental and physical pain which may erupt throughout her vessel. The Liberating Devil was not certain how this aspect of her Flux Discharge would influence the Asthavon's body, but she was certain that it would make her stronger, mold her mind, and transform the demon into someone capable of not being consumed by the darkness of her soul.

In this way, even the Seal of Eris would find itself awakening in power; twinging at the nerve of Calypso and coming to its aid as it unleashed it's full power all throughout her being and sought to otherwise awaken her to it's potential. This time, it would be different. This time, she would be in full control. She had to be. This was her liberated self and it was going to be her more honest form and power. All of her mania, dreams, nightmares and will would collide into one power and self.
