Paradise of Infinity

Chapter 275: Tearjerker?(2); Jerking Was Involved

Chapter 275: Tearjerker?(2); Jerking Was Involved?

'Crying? Me?' Toph keeps standing. She isn't some emotionally-screwed individual like her father, who turned into a repulsive monster of a husband and father after Ozai won the war— selling her mother's dignity for better trade and then eventually reaching to her with his vile claws. But she doesn't cry easily. However, she knows Nik. He is a capable man who tries to achieve his goals with everything he has. So, his confidence births a wave of anxiety inside her as her toes clench and unclench inside the thick boots.

No doubt the boots are comfortable for her feet, but she doesn't like the 'blindness' she has to face in pursuit of such luxuries.

Toph keeps sneering on the outside, complaining, "Are you going to do something soon?"

She hears him speak: "Oh, it's complete."

Complete?

Toph frowns. She doesn't feel a—

She squints and instinctively brings her hand close to her forehead to shield her eyes from a prickly sensation after a sense of warmth intermingles with her eyes.

It's something. Toph cannot put the experience into words. It's a sensation.

She's experienced this sensation slightly when she employs her seismic sense. Her chi will give her feedback in the form of a ring of lights passing through objects and people.

Right!

Light.

Is she experiencing Light?

Toph is aware of the color black. It seems that there are different kinds of blindness in this world. Some allow them to see things extremely blurred, while Toph's condition only allows her to see Black. Poppy taught her the name of the color.

How bleak—Black.

But today, a thin ray of light pierces this shroud of darkness, and Toph squints harder.

It's not painful. It's not itchy—it's warm.

Something inside her eyes is still helping her absorb this sensation.

And then—

It's white.

Something opposite of black can only be white, and an expanse of land so bright must be white... snow.

Toph's vision continues to readjust. The warmth floating in her head starts to fade as she sees them.

It's a tricky sensation to describe. Toph doesn't know the colors or the faces by looking as effortlessly as she would learn them from their contours using seismic sense. But they are staring back.

Are those eyes?

Those flaps on the side must be ears.

Why the fuck do some of them look so big?

Yeah, seven identical faces. They were fucking doomed if Nik couldn't tell the difference.

Toph stays silent. She feels amazed, and that's when she feels something slide down her cheeks—tears. But why? She really isn't crying. She is more interested in understanding what happened than crying. It feels like an instinctive reaction, like rubbing your eyes too hard or laughing too much.

She tilts her head sideways once she notices the distant Ignit looking back at her curiously—only to find someone tall standing beside her.

Toph cannot differentiate between colors, but the pitch-black hair is noticeable, and notably darker skin. His lips stretch into a smile. A kind one? A mocking one? She cannot tell.

"I can see," Toph blinks, her words surprising everyone for a reason as the familiar man leans down to stare directly into her eyes. "Hmm, I thought your pupils would change slightly—"

The sound of someone running on the snow interjects their conversation. Toph and Nik look sideways to see a voluptuous figure crashing into Toph, eagerly wrapping their arms around her until their face settles to look at each other closely.

*Drip*

Toph's eyes widen as she stares at the face. A tearful but kind and gentle face—she can tell, as another droplet of tear falls from the woman's eyes upon Toph's cheeks.

"C-can you see me?" The woman's voice quakes.

Her Mother's voice trembles!

"Toph!" Poppy smiles widely, tears streaming down her cheeks. "Can you see me?"

Emotions build within the unruly Blind Bandit, an epithet she cannot hold any longer. Tears build in her eyes as she grits her jaws and nods slightly before sobbing in her mother's arms as the cold snow doesn't stop their intimacy. "I can." Toph hugs back, burying her face in her mother's arms as she chokes a sob. "I can see you, Mom."

"What did you do?" Yue walks closer to Nik. She tried healing Toph once, but her healing cannot change deformities from birth or incorrectly healed spots such as scars.

Nik smiles calmly, glancing at the notification of the system.

[Age: 20 (92→90)]

"Oh, nothing." He chuckles, brushing his fingers into his hair. "I can heal a few things now." He looks away from Yue, speaking a little louder, "And I can hear you cry, Toph!"

Toph flinches in Poppy's arms before smiling widely, "I don't care!"

Nik looks at the rest of the group, not keen on sharing the price of this ability, not out of fear of some leak of information but the fact that the rest, especially Poppy, will feel awkward about it.

As for Toph?

Nik can imagine her shrugging and saying—

"Life Spent Well."

—with a smirk as cocky as the moments before they tried anal for the first time.

---

Nik and others' snowball fight ends with an emotional note of Toph moving past everyone's congratulations as she makes snowballs from her hands as quickly as possible to aim at every snotty child that used the advantage of her blindness—a heartwarming sight for the likes of Mai and Azula.

According to a few injured Hunter's wishes, Nik introduces them to his personal world. The group is naturally cautious as only a few crippled warriors volunteer to scope out the world, making Sokka sigh wryly. But as Sokka introduces the settlement in Nik's personal world, Nik turns to the nearest warriors and questions curiously.

"Where are Master Pakku and Hama?"

The two old masters took a shine to each other's bending prowess—cute if you as Nik—but he hadn't seen them ever since he returned. He forgot to ask Aang about them before he entered his personal world with a small herd of Sky Bison—a parting gift from the boy—as he will spend his time with Tom-Tom and the rest for the night before Nik leaves.

The hunter lowers his head before shaking his head. "We met the two masters and their small entourage from the Northern Tribe. But, they traveled further to other settlements after hearing the news of a strange specter. We haven't heard from them since."

Nik blinks in surprise.

A spirit?

Why didn't Aang say anything about them?

"Oh," Aang, once located with Tom-Tom near the area the herd of 5 Sky Bisons settled, answers Nik's query. "They aren't hurt. Master Pakku and Hama left the village they visited four days ago to bring more traders to the tribe."

Nik frowns at that. He wanted to meet Hama before he left since she taught him the most about waterbending and bloodbending.

But he cannot do anything about that as he lets Aang have fun while nearing Sokka's entourage. Their caution about the situation has lowered as they ask Nik to return and relay the information to the rest of the tribe—which thrills Sokka and the other villagers.

As for the rest? Toph should already be learning about different colors with Poppy. Michi and the rest heard the news about the Earthbender's eyes healing. But Toph's pupils are still milky green for some reason. The preparations are complete after the last of Sokka's villagers enter Nik's world. They would be due to leave tomorrow.

It makes Nik feel very complex.

This world was a tribulation in its own right before and after meeting Mokshi. He faced many dangers, but he grew! But Nik isn't delusional to think he can keep living here scot-free. Someone will greed over Mokshi again. Once they leave, another spirit of Freedom will be born, but this variation will be different. I won't be Raava's and Vaatu's child, but a spirit of illusion.

His Mokshi is a paradox, unfettered by the threads of Destiny, but the variation will merely be an echo of its former self.

But Nik shakes himself out of his thoughts as he returns to the real world.

He has yet to bring another individual still waiting for him.

"I thought you were ready to forget about me!" Katara pouts, standing in the center of their former settlement, a smile on her lips despite the accusatory tone. Her blue eyes look as eager as the time they learned about waterbending as she wags her brows. "So? Do you have something for me?"

Nik grins as he steps toward her. He flips his hand as the red marking around the base of his left forearm glimmers, revealing an ocean-blue pendant strung on a strip of a deep-blue choker. A swirling pattern of waterbending is carved on its surface.

Katara instantly gasps, reaching out for it as Nik clenches his fist with a smirk, "Not so easily."

"Then what?" Katara smiles. Her large blue eyes regard him with a sensational emotion birthing in her gaze. "Haven't you booked Toph for the night?"

"I didn't heal her eyes to lord it over her," Nik walks behind Katara. He leans forward to whisper against her ear, "I healed her to make her cry, and lord THAT over her for years to come."

Katara chuckles. Her lips part after a second as Nik draws a gasp from the dusky beauty when his hands gently reach out for her neck.

"The day we met, you told me you felt cooped into your village, but you would always want to return here no matter the adventures."

His thumb massages the small of the back of her neck while his deep-purple eyes glimmer behind her.

Katara leans her head back, whispering, "How horrible of you to take that wish away from me. Compensations are in order, don't you think?"

Nik smiles to himself, sliding the choker around her neck before tying a small knot.

"Why would I compensate you?" Nik whispers. "I'm the plunderer. I like taking things."

Katara pulls away with an amused giggle. Her hand touches her pendant as she eyes Nik, "If only that were true."

Nik chuckles at her words, nodding, "It looks good on you."

"Hmm. It does," Katara averts her gaze. "So? When should we take the next step?"

"Whoa, I'm not ready for kids!"

"I meant marriage!" Katara huffs, her cheeks flush as she mutters. "It would be very weird, you know."

"Kya?" Nik inquires as Katara nods.

"You're horrible," she snaps her gaze at him. "And you're stringing those seven, too!"

He blinks before shrugging. Is there a point to deny it? His reputation is pretty much set from the day he entered Michi's chamber in Omashu.

"I'll think of a way to share my attention with everyone," Nik calmly promises, "And it won't be any weirder than spirits chasing after us."

Katara lowers her head as Nik continues, "And I want to marry all of you, I think, at once..."

She snorts, mocking him lightly, "Will you ever feel full?"

"Of you guys?" Nik grins. "Never!"

Silence descends around them as Katara looks down at her pendant.

"It's finally happening. Are you afraid of the worlds you will face after this?"

Nik lowers his head before shaking his head. "We'll see."

Katara nods, contemplating their situation before exhaling loudly and smiling, "Come on!"

She walks toward him, grabs his left arm, and leans forward to peck his lips gently before whispering huskily, "You're mine tonight."

They reappear in Katara's bedroom as she continues, "As for Kya," she casually utters her mother's name. "You're the one responsible for turning us like this." She pushes him down, sealing his lips heatedly before he could explain that Kya was the one to start things this time around.

Then again, Katara persuades him to feel otherwise as she frees his eager cock from his trouser before stroking him lovingly.

As their kiss breaks, Nik licks his lips before whispering, "I'm yours tonight."

---

Nik and Aang stand in front of each other next to Appa and Momo.

*Chrrt*

Momo tilts his head around as Nik pats both of them gently, "I'll miss you two."

Aang lowers his head as Nik turns to him.

"Thank you."

He bows to the Avatar as the young Boy blinks in surprise, gasping, "What are you doing?"

"You taught me Airbending, Aang. As young as you are, you've been a kind master to me. Thank you for everything!"

The boy looks at the pseudo-avatar with complex emotion as the boy charges Nik, hugging him as tightly as his short frame allows him to. Nik feels the boy's body trembling in his arms as he hugs the boy back. "I'm so sorry that we can't leave together," he whispers as Aang shakes his head.

"It's not your fault. I cannot take the Avatar from this world. But... you will return, right?"

Nik nods, "I will find a way back the second I feel comfortable tackling this world's spirits."

Aang pulls back, rubbing his eyes as he grins, "You made a promise to your master. I'll await you, Nik!"

The Avatar bows, "You have taught me many things, too. I'm glad to have met you, Nik! The next time we meet, I expect you to be an Airbending Master."

Nik chuckles, activating the return sequence.

[Return Sequence Initiated.

10... 9...]

Nik returns the bow, "Till we meet again... Brother."

Aang feels his nose prickle as tears cloud his vision again. He looks up in a hurry, but he sees nobody—only Nik's footprints remain in his stead... and a bunch of clothes.

Aang cannot help but chuckle, tears start flowing from his eyes as he collapses on his knees and covers his face.

This time, Aang doesn't need Hina or his past lives to tell him he's alone. Far from it, he has many friends in this world!

He is sad, for he will miss a Dear Brother.

A/N: I didn't want to rush the Ty Siblings' route and Kya's route any further by already handing them their chokers. I don't know if I will succeed, but I will try to give appropriate screentime to everyone through side chapters and other stuff. Oh, and I got into two Terror Infinity Fanfic (one on Webnovel and the other in QQ), and then I recalled the Reincarnation Paradise, so be prepared for the surprise for the coming chapters.
