Ascension of Chaos

Ashley

"We greet His Chaotic Eminence and Her Highness, Princess Ashley Chaos, the Queen of Destruction."

Both of the Tower Masters declare the exact same thing while kneeling down in front of me and Chaos. Which makes it slightly awkward for me as I'm still not used to this treatment.

"Stand," Chaos says, clearly taking the lead in this. Thankfully. "Know that should any member of the Tower of Chaos say even a single disrespectful word to my daughter, or so much as glance at her in an inappropriate way, I will turn them into their own worst nightmares before throwing them into the Tower of Chaos for a century."

Oh. That's not the kind of 'taking the lead' I had in mind.

"Of course, no other punishment could possibly fit the heretical crime of insulting Her Highness," the female Tower Master declares while standing, firmly agreeing with Chaos and making me do a double take at her.

Excuse me, what?

"Should we add them to the blacklist after they leave the Tower as well?" the male Tower Master asks while climbing to his feet as well.

Chaos shakes his head and states, "They won't be leaving the Tower alive, so there's no need. But do blacklist anyone related to them."

"Of course, Your Chaotic Eminence."

I look between the three as both the Tower Masters agree with his words without any hesitation or doubt. Meanwhile I'm left wondering what screws went loose and when.

After several seconds of wondering just what sort of crime they'd consider disrespectful, I decide I don't really want to know.

"Please handle the registration as swiftly as possible so that she may do as she pleases," Chaos declares before his clone bursts into a bunch of black, crimson, and purple feathers. Disappearing without another word.

Without even waiting for them to respond to his command.

And yet they do so anyways, with both Tower Masters declaring, "Of course, Your Chaotic Eminence."

Right as I'm about to recover from his disappearance though, his words suddenly echo throughout the area, saying, "Please give her a luxury experience while she is here. She needs the relaxation."

I look around with a frown, wondering what he's talking about. But the Tower Masters just repeat their declaration again.

Luxury experience? What do you mean?

"You need to let go of that tension, so let them take care of you for a bit," Chaos declares in my head, making me frown. "I swear you won't regret this. And if you let them take care of you, I will do you one favor within my restrictions."

My eyes narrow for a moment before I eventually let out a sigh. Then I nod my head.

Fine. You win this time.

You better not forget that favor though.

"Don't worry, I can't forget things," Chaos says, sounding proud of himself.

Find this and other great novels on the author's preferred platform. Support original creators!

That makes me raise a brow.

So you're saying that you were lying before to the Primordial of Magic when you said you forgot your anniversary back when the two of you were together?

"Uh," he utters before his voice completely vanishes from my mind.

Uh huh.

Anyway, I go ahead and follow the Tower Masters to their office, where they officially register me for the System Tower. Then they lead me through the Tower of Chaos somewhere else without saying what it is beyond 'luxury quarters'.

I'm not entirely sure what they're talking about, but I have a guess. Because I know the White Enforcer would sometimes to go luxury spas from time to time.

There was even one day she forced me and Elizabeth to go with her. Although I don't remember much of it what with most of my memories that have returned being ones related to Blake. And from what I do remember, I was too terrified the entire time being there with her to enjoy it.

We continue walking through the Tower for a little bit before ending up at a door. But the Tower Masters don't continue beyond this point. Instead they pass me off to several woman standing right inside of the room.

"Please enjoy your time here and relax, Your Highness," the female Tower Master says with a smile. Almost like she's looking at a young child.

Since Chaos said to do so, I go ahead and enter the room, with the women closing the door behind me. And almost immediately after that, they bring me over to a pool, where they end up stripping me entirely before letting me get into the water in just a towel.

But the moment I enter the water, I feel a wave of relaxation flood my entire body. Only after which do the ladies here explain that the water has various effects that are very good for the body and for relaxing in general.

They then bring over various food and drinks for me to try while relaxing. Different ones that also have soothing effects for the body.

And for the first time in a while I'm starting to feel the tension in my body loosen a little.

But not entirely.

After the pool, they bring me over to another area with a little whirlpool like thing in the water along with waves. And as they have me sit down in it, they give me a bit of a neck massage while some of them wash out my hair, and others continue feeding me grapes, which they must've noticed I liked from how much I ate before at the pool.

Then, following the pool, they bring me over to a sauna, where I just relax while sitting down on a bench. But this time they leave me alone in here as the tension in my body begins to melt away further and I find my thoughts actually going somewhere that isn't strictly business. Or strictly growing stronger, or my next plans.

My thoughts drift off to remember some of the things from my past.

Things like playing video games with Blake, or a few times I actually went swimming with Blake.

Including the time I made some friends. Even if said friends were Blake's friends first, since I was never great at making friends.

By now I'm feeling a lot more relaxed than I can ever remember being. And after heating up in the sauna for a while, the ladies come back and bring me over to a table to sit down and get a foot massage in a foot bath. After which they have me lie down on my front without the towel and they begin giving me a full body massage.

And as they massage my body, I feel all of my remaining tension slowly beginning to drain away bit by bit. To the point that my eyes even begin to slowly droop closed.

All the way until I fall asleep at last.

Within the Tower of Chaos

Chaos smiles as he sees the women working the luxury spa carrying Ashley towards her room on a portable bed, with the girl herself being dressed in a robe with a blanket on top of her. And her eyes comfortably closed as she sleeps in peace.

It's been bothering Chaos for a while. The fact that she almost never relaxes.

And even when she does relax and take a nap or something, he can tell she's not really relaxing. She's still full of tension all over, to the point that even her eyes are clenched a little when she sleeps.

But this time, as he watches her sleep while being carried through the hall before eventually being moved onto the massive bed in her room, there isn't a single hint of tension. Not in her eyes or in her body.

She's more relaxed than he has ever seen her before.

And that, in Chaos's mind, is worth a thousand favors he could give to Ashley.

I wonder when I got so sappy?

Part of him knows when, but the other part doesn't even bother trying to think about it. He just smiles as he watches her sleep. Then he finally teleports away, deciding to leave her to sleep in peace.

Because before anything, he has some pests to deal with. Ones who looked at her the wrong way while she was being carried through the hall.

So mere minutes later, screams echo throughout the Tower of Chaos and several of the members of the Tower who were there only moments ago are nowhere to be found. But not a single member of the tower shows any worry over them.

Many even show satisfaction at their disappearance.

Leaving the Tower of Chaos in peace once more.
