Chapter Text
"Don't worry MK, I'm pretty sure whatever God that blesses you will be fine" A green dragonnoid human in royal Jade clothing says with confidence.
"I don't know Mei, I don't really even know how magic works most of the time and what type of god would bless a human born from poverty" MK rubs his arm nervously.
The dragon in human form and fancy Jade clothing was Mei, the empress of the Dragons of the West. She's Red's most longest friend and powerful ally. When Mei met MK through Red, they somehow immediately became best friends. They would always chat about the most random of things, but most of it was about Mei's childhood and her kingdom as a whole.
Mei was taller than MK, but still not as tall as Red Son. Red was more of a 7'11 and Mei is more 7'3. MK is recently 5'7.
The light brown skinned human boy with decently long hair and a red bandana was MK, the boy wearing the silky red hanfu with golden cloud patters on it. He's the new mate and bride of Red Son.
As of right now, was MK's day of ritual. The day he becomes immortal.
MK is very excited obviously, he gets a chance to be with his fiance, Red Son, the Red Sage King of the 4 Samadhi Rings Empire, for all eternity.
On the other hand, he barely knows anything about magic and is nervous on what god will bless him with immortality and power.
Mei scoffs "Trust me, it's definitely not based off of class, even though a lot of others keep assuming that. It's kind of based on your morals and/or the personalities of the gods themselves, it's kind of complicated. Like how both me and Red Son are blessed by Nezha, due to our nature of protecting the innocent and our gifted talents with fire as kids, we're also are pretty wild kids like how Nezha was during his childhood"
"For example, you're super kind and sweet and have a lot of passion and courage, as well as super intelligent on morality and such. You could get a high class goddess like Quanyin or Nuwa, or even a god like Nezha too. Heck, maybe you'll be blessed by a divine class, but their morals are very hard to read. Especially the Queen of Gods, Xi Wangmu. She really hasn't blessed anyone at all even though she's one of the oldest gods. She only blesses their spells, but not someone in general" Mei says as MK smiled at her.
"Thanks Mei, that definitely gives me a lot more confidence" Mei and MK looks at the door. The room where the ritual will be held.
"You ready for this" Mei looked at MK. MK took a deep breath before exhaling all of the nerves out.
"Ready as I'll ever be" They both walk in the room. Red Son in his royal hanfu as well as two spellcasters in robes that had the Red Sage King symbol on the clothing. The red and purple room with lighting was mostly empty but was still fancy. Only containing one bed and multiple potions, elixirs, and offerings such as fruit, gems, and gold
Red nods at MK "It's time my love" MK nods back. They both have each other a peck on the lips, before MK lays in the bed in the middle of the room.
MK could barely see what was happening. He could hear bottles being popped open, sand falling on the floor, as well as golden coins and jewels being spilled onto the royal room.
That was the last thing MK remembers, before falling asleep due to a sleep spell.
--
Everything needs to be perfect
Everything needs to be perfect for his beloved.
Red Son, Mei and the two spellcasters were surrounding the circle.
Everyone already knew what to do.
Each magic circle from all four appeared. Each of them focused as they perform the ritual.
The offering spilled and placed on the ground turned into a liquid gold as the human boy was lifted from the bed. Floating like a star.
The liquid gold covered MK like a warm blanket as it shine and glows brighter than the sun. His body now trapped in a golden glowing egg like stone.
The spell was finished
Everyone opened their eyes to see the glowing egg figure float back down. Soon the egg turned into something odd.
Something not even the oldest of casters could recognize.
MK's egg went from glowing to sparkling. The rock when Red observed it, felt like a meteorite astronomers would find on this very planet. The egg kept it's golden color as it had what it seems to be like stardust. Many rainbow and multiple colored glitter-like dust in the divine egg.
He's seen many rare ritual in his time, but nothing like this, but the more rare meant more power the being can possess. That's one good fact that Red Son can confirm.
He looks at one of his spell casters "Can you confirm who is blessing my bride?" He calmly asked.
"Of course my lord" the caster bowed as he casted an observation spell of the egg containing MK. His eyes glowed a bright good as he gasped in shock.
The caster was in his knees as he covers his mouth.
"What is it? What's the matter" Red immediately sounded concerned at what the name the caster might've seen.
"I've-I've never seen anything like this. She blessed him... He's her first blessed..." The caster continues to ramble.
Mei started to get impatient, wanting to know who's blessing her new best friend "Come on now. Get ahold of yourself caster"
"Your majesties, it's wonderful. It's absolutely truly wonderful. He's been blessed by the ultra divine. He's their first blessed warrior" the caster whispered almost smiling madly. It wasn't enough for Mei and Red Son to hear though.
"What are you on about caster?" Red Son almost yelled.
"Come on brother, speak the God's name" the other caster hold
The other caster tried to get himself together, taking calming deep breaths before he reveals his answer.
".... It's #$ @#$%@#...."
Red Son, Mei, and the other almost has the same face as the first caster.
The second caster had a shock face, almost disbelieving the whole situation itself.
Mei had a shock but very happy and excited reaction. Grabbing Red Son's shoulder's with a happy smile.
Red Son had a plain shock face, but he kept looking at divine egg, even if the dragon girl's hands were on his shoulders. Soon his shock face turned a prideful and loving smile as he continues to look at the egg.
"Who did I please to give me such luck? Who did I please to meet someone like you, Qi Xiaotian?"
"Oh My Me! This is really happening!" MK hears a what appears to be a young lady squealing with joy.
MK opens his eyes to see a face of a very giant woman with beautiful twilight purple and pink eyes. Literally, her pupils were in the shape of twilight stars as her irises looks like the galaxy itself. Her long hair an ombre of pink and purple, just like her eyes and her skin was a light tan. She wore a hanfu made it looks like it was made out of a galaxy itself as the pink starry ribbon that floated above her head and wrapped around her shoulders were mesmerizing itself.
She was really, really beautiful. Looks pretty young too.
"Woah..." The woman gasped.
MK's POV:
MK looks around to see that he's literally in the palm of this beautiful giant woman.
The divine lady blinks before noticing that he was conscious "Oh! Hello there. You can hear me right? You must be Qi Xiaotian or MK by your friends and new fiance right?"
"Y-yes I am" MK said nervously. To be honest, how else would you feel about seeing a god 100 times your size and has the ability to wipe you away with one snap?
"Alrighty then!" The goddess said enthusiastically. "My name is Xi Wangmu! You know me, Queen/Empress of the Gods as well as the Goddess of Life, Destruction and the stars and cosmos itself. Dang I'm the goddess of a lot of stuff" Xi Wangmu said in realization.
MK blinks.
Did he hear her right?
He was not only seeing a divine being, but the QUEEN of divine beings.
Dang, his luck is on a roll isn't it?
MK's face was stuck in shock "Wait, aren't you a divine-"
"Yessir I am indeed a divine class goddess. I know what you're thinking, 'aren't divine class gods almost impossible to get blessings from?', yeah they kind of are. I usually help warrior if they need a power boost since I'm already super powerful and unlike some of the other gods and my husband, I don't really need worship like they do to gain more divine power,"
"but I chose to bless you specifically"
Wait...
Specifically him?
"Wait...you chose me? You wanted to bless me?" MK looks at her with disbelief.
Xi Wangmu kept smiling with confidence "Of course!"
"Why?" MK looked confused, which made Xi Wangmu a little confused. "I'm just a mortal human from, excuse my language dear goddess, a shit hole of a kingdom which is one of the most racist and discriminatory places on this very planet. What's so special about me?"
"Well, everything" Xi Wangmu says as MK looked up at her with shock yet again.
"Here's the truth, I've kind of been watching you ever since you were little" Xi Wangmu honestly said with a bright smile. "I wanted to observe your kingdom because it had a low number of blessings and prayers for the gods. Not to mention had very low education on magic"
"A racist and classist kingdom who was discriminatory on demons and demi-humans, leaving them at the bottom with the low class"
"but then I saw you as a little kid, born in low class and not-so-great parents. You could've been like almost every other kid born in poverty who was abused by their parents and tyrants at your old home. Envious, bratty, mean, as well as discriminate demons and humans like the rest of them"
Xi Wangmu gives a proud smile at MK "But no, you always treated others with kindness and respect, human or non-human" MK eyes shined as his heart warmed up and his face gives a small blush "You knew who was treating others bad or good, you don't see the world as black and white as other humans and demons do. Helping demons and demi-humans live their best possible lives"
"And you didn't think I would forget about the orphanage. I remember you would help celebrate the orphans birthdays when you were little. Throwing little parties and giving them a birthday cake to help celebrate" Xi Wangmu showed an image of MK volunteering at the orphanage when he was 11.
Playing tag along with the rest of the little ones. She began to show more images and small memories clips. Of him helping the homeless, even if he barely had money himself, helping Sandy at his therapy sessions, making meals outside for everyone at harvest day and so much more of him helping anyone who needs it.
"Even if your parents tried to limit your good deeds, you always knew how to help one way or another" Another image showed a recent image of him, Tang and Pigsy, giving out hot food and blankets to the homeless. "You always had a passion to bring joy to others that deserve it, and protecting them from the ones who think are always right about something or someone"
"You even falled in love with a monarch who seems scary and tyranical, but has one of the most softest of hearts for everyone, not just for his own citizens" MK then sees an image of Red Son giving food and bag of money to a homeless family of his neighborhood. MK smiled at that memory.
"Red...is different from other noble men I've seen" MK talked out loud "The nobles in my old home would just come and brag, kicking the homeless and demi-human and demon children in disgust. I thought I knew what nobles were truly like on the inside"
"But, ever since I met him. He treated me and the poor with nothing but kindness. He's not just a noble and ruler because of a birth right, he's one because of his kind heart, his leadership, and his passion to make other's lives better than before. That's why everyone in his kingdom worships him like a deity" MK blushed as he smiles talking about his fiance.
"That's why I want to join his conquest to take over more land. To stop more tyrants from making more innocent lives suffer like how my old king did to my old home. To make more people laugh and sing nothing but joy as they all have a warm home and bed to go to. My uncle died for that purpose. He wanted everyone to have a home to go to at night. To be left with a full stomach after dinner, but the King of Cicida execute him before he could go any father. I want to continue his dream to make sure everyone his happy and laughing together, humans, demons, demi-humans and all. To make sure everyone lives in peace and harmony in the end and take down the one's who try to destroy it. I want to bring more happiness and fun into this world"
Xi Wangmu's grin got bigger as she heard MK "And that's why you're going to my first blessed warrior" Wangmu snapped her fingers and MK had golden aura surrounds him. Pink and purple magic circles surrounded the white room
"Now, do you know what a divine primate is, my warrior?" Xi Wangmu asked MK.
MK immediately got excited "Like the Monkey King, Sun Wukong! I love his story and his Journey to the West. I mean he did try to take over the godly kingdom and such in greed, but he's so amazing and cool at the same time. And his comeback story in the journey was super cool"
Xi Wangmu has a confident grin "Well congratulations, you're about to become a divine primate. And thanks to my blessing, you'll be one of the most gorgeous creatures on this planet. So gorgeous and cute, even Wukong has to take back his title of 'Handsome Monkey King'. And don't look at me like that, he actually gave himself that title" Xi Wangmu giggles.
MK laughed out loud at that "Do you two know each other?"
Xi Wangmu sighs "In some sort of way, yes" the queen of all gods continues to make the magic circles
"No offense your highness, I didn't expect you to be....so casual. I thought gods would be more-"
"Stuck up and holy?" Wangmu laughed "Yeah even us gods have our own prejudice. Though some of us does act snooty and high up"
"You also look super pretty. And super younger than I thought you would look like. Everyone keeps calling you the grandma of heaven since the Jade Emporer is the grandfather, but you look NOTHING like the pictures said you would. You look around my age. Like 19 or 20" MK complimented.
The goddess gave a shock look before giving MK a big smile
MK's POV:
"Aww, I knew you were the right warrior for me! Thank you so much! I don't know even why they call me the grandma of heaven either. Sure, I may be one of the oldest gods here, but I gained my immortality at 19 and stayed looking good ever since. My husband gained immortality in his twenties, but he still aged a bit though, which is why almost everyone calls him grandpa, but I still love him to eternity anyways" Xi Wangmu talks as she finished making the magic circles.
"Aaaaand we're done with the first half! I got to explain some things about your new powers and abilities before I turned you into a complete immortal and transform you into my warrior, but first" She hold up he pointer finger. She then gently taps MK's forehead with her finger nail.
"Booooop" She said.
MK suddenly begins to see, some type of computer like screen. It was yellow-oramgeb. He only seen computers in the middle and upper class, but never had his own until he ran away with Red. What did Red and Mei say the floating computer screen was?
Oh yeah! A projection! It was a projection of some kind he was seeing.
"You see the yellow-orange screen right?" MK nodded.
"Oh goody! That's your own caster's encyclopedia. Whenever you see something new or out of the ordinary things, your encyclopedia will tell you what it is" Xi Wangmu explained. "Also you will have enhanced abilities of Sun Wukong's usual powers. The eyes of truth, the ability to summon a nimbus cloud, the art of 72 transformations, making a super big Kaiju form of yourself and the ability to clone yourself. This time no possibility of evil clones whatsoever" MK looked at the goddess in awe.
"Your strength will be also very high as well. More definitely more higher than Wukong's that's for sure. And thanks to my blessing you should be able to cast all elemental magic as well. Don't worry about carrying a book, your encyclopedia should handle that" MK then sees a BIG ASS LIST of magic spells.
"That's a lot to learn" MK said to himself.
"Oh don't worry, once magical spells are learned they'll be stuck in you brain, and it'll all be instinct. Soon you just think of a certain fire spell just by name, and you'll be able to do it" Xi Wangmu gasped.
"Oh yeah! Divine Primates have special perks as well. You'll learn pretty quickly when it comes to new magic, combat and martial arts. It should only take you a few days to get used to your magic" Xi Wangmu explained "Unrelated note, you'll basically have a unlimitless supply of magic thanks to me, but it can still make you a bit nauseous if you use a whole bunch of magic on a very big spell, so be careful with that" Xi Wangmu continued
"Back to the Divine Primate stuff, your hearing and sight should improve at superhuman levels. You will also like every non-human and will be effected by heat and mating season. Aaaaand your breast will be a bit bigger than last time and your head hair will grow too. Is that alright?" Wangmu asked as MK shrugged.
"My hair has always been long so it's not much of a problem. Plus I can always get a more bigger compressor" MK says with no anger at all.
"Perfect! A few more things then we can finish the process. First things first, here's your weapon" Wangmu made two chain whips with big metal daggers attached to it he could hold. "It's kind of an assassination weapon, but it's mostly used as whips. You can call it whatever you like cause this is the only weapon that will exist in this planet"
"Next is big magic spells or Elemental Finishers as others call it. Those are basically prayers to my name as are the other spells. Elemental Finishers don't exist in your encyclopedia, it comes to you when you need it, like an instinct of yours. Every spell you cast will be a prayer in my name" Wangmu sighs.
"That's all I have to tell you for now. If you have anymore questions about your new abilities you can't the answer to yourself, just make a prayer and let me know and don't worry this information will be stuck in your head as well. I made sure of it" Her eye begins to shine like stars
"Now it's time for you to turn into my first warrior" MK looks around and sees the atmosphere and setting turned into the cosmos itself. Pink and light purple magic circles appear almost everywhere.
"Now close your eyes my warrior," MK eyes turn heavy and soon enough his eyes were closed shut with sleepiness "and soon, you will wake up near your beloved and new friend in your new body, as the new lord of the 4 Samadhi Rings Empire and the first champion of the queen and goddess of all life and destruction, of the cosmos and stars themselves, the Goddess Xi Wangmu"
MK soon fell into a peaceful sleep as Wangmu finishes the last part of the Immortality Ritual.
Red Son and Mei sat next to each other. It has been 4 hours ever since MK's ceremony. Stars are coming out as the sun only gave a small peak in the sky.
Mei and Red brought a tea table in the ritual room as they wait for MK to hatch from the stone egg.
"How long do you think MK will be like...this?" Mei looks at the mystical egg.
Red Son shrugs "It depends, MK's the first warrior to be even be chose by the Queen of Gods. It can vary. Like how we've been blessed by the same God, but your awakening only took 30 minutes while I took 2 days to hatch from my awakening. I swear you had the fastest awakening in history of all rituals"
"Heh" Mei gives a cocky smile "What can I say? I finish my progress as quickly as I finish my maids in my bed"
"Oh my- dragon girl" Mei laughed as Red glared at her for even making that horrible sex joke.
"How we've been friends for almost 300 years is beyond me" Red rolled his eyes and sipped his tea cup.
Mei clutches her heart dramatically "Oh you hurt me" Mei laughed again "MK would've laughed at that joke"
Red Son rolled his eyes again before pausing himself as he hears a crack.
Apparently Mei heard that to, because she shuts her mouth to hear.
"You heard that too right?" Mei asked.
They look at the mystical egg only for it to have cracks the reveal shining light.
They then looked at the window, revealing a very starry sky with a moonless night.
*Crack*
"Mei, get some maids and have them bring refreshments" Mei looked at Red with disbelief.
"Red I don't think he needs refreshments after his awakening" Mei says.
"Mei yours only took 30 minutes and you ate dinner before that, mine took two days and my throat was dryer than a desert when I came out. I can imagine after 4 hours, he'll be a bit thirsty" Red Son says as Mei rolls her eyes, but she gets up and hurries to the maids.
Red Son rushes to the egg as it cracks more and more. Soon enough, the egg releases a big burst of power, which pushed Red back a little and the figure released a bright light. But he rushed to the bed his love was laying in, his arms blocking the bright light in front of him.
The bright golden light dimmed and then it finally revealed the new body of his bride.
Red gasped at his lover's new form. Almost his whole entire body was covered in fur as he still wore the same hanfu from the ceremony.
And his face and figure itself was indescribable.
He looked like the human he saw 2 years ago, but it somehow was more gorgeous than ever, even as another creature.
The Queen of Gods must've granted him the best beauty as part of her blessing, because hot damn.
His hanfu grew with him, which allowed it to show off MK's perfect figure while he's laying, as well as his bigger chest and his head of silky hair now reached to his hips. It even shows how tall he was. Almost about the same height as Mei. He would say about 7'1
Cute big monkey ears reveal themselves as it divided some hair to his face. Around his closed eyes was an orange peach heart and his monkey nose was just as adorable as him. And his new monkey tail swings gently as he stays asleep.
A divine primate
And on all gods green earth, he's the most gorgeous thing on this earth. Prove him wrong. Try to.
The goddess made his fiance as perfect as his kind soul and you can't change his mind.
"Alright I got two maids with refreshments Red Boy you can- holy shit" Mei says as she walks to the bed, now standing next to the Sage King.
"Damn, Xi Wangmu definitely does not disappoint" Mei whispered.
"I don't know when he'll wake up-" A groan comes from the new MK as he stirs and moves around a little.
MK opens his eyes and it was nothing they've ever seen before.
MK's eyes but imagine the color as an amber yellow and orange for the bottom color instead of red and pink:
MK's eyes looked like the cosmos themselves.
Like he was holding two galaxies in his eyes. Galaxies with yellow and orange star dust and white stars glimmering in his eyes. You can even see the purple and black starry part of the starry view with his eyes.
Now Red knows that he's definitely beyond perfect.
The final nail to the coffin was the sweet smile MK gave them. "Hey guys, how do I look?" MK asked in a soothing tone according to Red.
Red looked at him speechless. Can't even figure out how to gain words at his beauty.
Mei on the other hand, "I'm just gonna say it. You look fucking hot MK, fucking gorgeous, handsome, and I'm definitely not over exaggerating at that. You beat the Goddess Jiutian by a landslide, and that's saying something" Red couldn't help but nod in agreement.
MK gave probably the most divine laugh he ever heard "Yeah, Xi Wangmu says that she would make me so gorgeous and cut that Wukong would have to give up his title of Handsome Monkey King" Well she definitely accomplished that. MK sits up and turns to the side of the bed.
MK kept swallowing his own spit and Red noticed that immediately "Do you need water my dear?" MK nodded. Red then gets water from the maid behind him.
As MK drank his water, Red absolutely gave Mei an "I told you so" look, but she ignored that.
Mei looks at her friend "So how does it feel? Your new body and the new power that you have inside you?" She asked as she sat next to his right
MK finishes the glass of water "Very energized, but also a bit tired at the same time" MK says.
"Well that is what happens at every immortality ritual. Especially if you went from human to another species. Though I am surprised that you turned into a divine primate" Red sat next to MK's left side.
"Well ever since I was little, I've always been called the Monkey Kid. This form suits me more than anything. I was such a Wukong fanatic when I was a kid you have no idea. I would go on my own adventures and climb the highest on the trees. How do you think I got my nickname?" MK smiles at the memory as Red wraps his arm around his hip and hugged him closer to him. MK purrs and nuzzles on Red's arm/shoulder.
MK then sees a mirror right in front of him at the wall close to him and could finally see his new body. He touches his face to confirm that it was indeed his own reflection in the mirror.
And the mirror did the exact movement he did.
He held his breath before releasing a big smile of satisfaction.
"I think... I'm gonna like this new form a lot" MK says leaning and nuzzling against Red's side. Red hums in satisfaction.
"Okay love doves, what's next on the agenda?" Mei pops in between them. MK laughs as Red Son rolled his eyes.
"We're obviously going to introduce him to the people of Samadhi as originally planned. Soon after we're going to make Xiaotian new clothes and armor as well as figure out how to harness his newfound strength and magic" Red says as MK gasped and his galaxy eyes glimmered even more.
"I'm getting armor?" MK looks at Red excited.
Red smiles at his excitement "Yes, we will get your measurements and after that, the blacksmiths will build multiple armors just for you"
"And I brought more durable metal to help him build it monkey boy" Mei says as she give MK a noogie.
MK laughs another time "Stop it Mei, I just gotta new body, and you're already trying to ruin my hair
Mei lets put a fake gasp "What? I would never try to do that" MK and Mei kept playing together and kept messing with each other like little siblings.
Red Son sighs as he looked at his childhood friend "You can stay the night if needed. It's pretty late and the last time I checked your magic takes a bit to heal"
Mei stands up and walks farther away from the couple "Na, I got more than enough energy to get me home via portal" Mei activated a green firey portal at the floor beneath her. "I'll come back in about 2 to 3 weeks. Got to deal with maintaining peace with dragons and stuff. See ya Red Boy, bye new Monkey Man!" then Mei goes through the green portal.
"It's Red Son you-! Ugh, forget it, she's already gone" He says to himself.
"Bye Mei! Good luck on dragon business!" MK waved as the portal closed.
Red Son sighs "Come on Xiaotian, there's supper waiting for us at the dining hall" he grabbed his fiance's hand.
"Good, I'm super hungry right now, I've been craving a lot of earthly pork ever since I woke up, also earthly chicken, and maybe earthly cow as well" MK chuckles.
Red Son chuckles as well "I'll tell the cooks that when they make tomorrows meals"
Red and MK enjoyed the rest of their night with a full stomach of food, and conversations that lead with them when they laid together.
They slept very happily that night, knowing now that they both are immortal entities, there's nothing in this universe that can separate them.
And no one can stop this meant-to-be power couple....
~
But....
In a fortress with lava pouring out of their palace, you can hear heels clicking in the royal red hallways. A lady with her hair bull horns and red qipao walks to a big door fit for a giant.
Even when it's ultimately true that anyone or anything cannot stop them.....
The lady opens the door with magical wind as she sees a certain purple demon bull in royal armor, on his big desk, putting a letter in an envelope, with a name she recognized very well.
"Dear, what do you have that letter for?" She says with curiosity.
"If Red Son thinks he can rule a as a King," the big demon bull stands up and huffs steam out of his nose.
"Then let's see how he does with a stronger opponent" the demon bull looks at the name on the letter.
Some people do like to think they can
The letter that will be soon given to someone named....Sun Wukong.
