[BOOK II] Chapter VII: Dark Elves Are Hot As F*ck (1)

After the horny, little stunt I pulled off at the woods, I couldn’t look at Ivanka completely in the eyes which was really difficult when it came to training time. Yeah, after today’s evening session, I would like to say that I really hated having a healing skill and a teacher who doesn’t know to ever pull back. 

I sat, absolutely dripping with sweat, and thanking every god in the high heavens that there was a temperature-adjusting feature in my [Dress Of Heaven]. It felt like a mini-air cooler inside my wear, but that didn’t really help with my overheating brain that was analyzing ways to not look at the hot, fallen goddess sipping water before me. 

It was there that I got a little mad. I, me, the freaking favoured child of heaven and earth, the goddamn Maiden gave her the best oral sex she had ever received and she doesn’t even take a glance at me?! How come it was just me suffering from embarrassment and she’s just as stoic as, well. . .as stoic as she is!

I pouted. It’s not fair. Then, a thought arose in my head. What if she actually knew the entire time throughout her sleep? That did nothing to calm the flames stoking in my heart. If that was true, and she really wasn’t asleep at all, it was like telling me that my blowjob was basically trash since she didn’t even let out a squeak. 

Then, came the embarrassment. Oh my god, I felt like a whore. My emotions were on an all-time high. 

“Are you okay?” 

I whipped my head at her. Her cold, ashy grey eyes stared down at me, doing nothing to help the massive blush on my face. “What?”

“Your chi,” She traced a circle around me. “It’s flickering.”

I immediately burst into flames. Damn it, I forgot that little tidbit about chi. 

“Just like that.”

I let out a cough, trying to calm myself down. Ivanka’s eyebrows raised, most likely seeing that my chi had mostly returned to normal. 

“What about you?” I asked. “Are YOU okay?”

“Oh yes, I’m as fine as the word when it was first invented,” Ivanka replied. I didn’t like her response and it must have shown with how my chi started to bubble over like froth. 

“So, how is your training coming along?”

I frowned. “Good.” I can’t believe she would try to change the subject like that. “With how I’m progressing, I should be able to master the mid-stage of the Body Realm by tonight.”

“It really hurt getting trashed like that by the Deera but-”

“Your hubris is what got you into that mess,” Ivanka cut me off, making me pout. She was going to start lecture mode soon. “I have warned you time and time again, not to ever let your guard down, even when it looks like you are on the cusps of victory. Never. There comes no good path from one’s hubris, in fact, when you advance onto the Mind Realm, you’ll see how much worth my words are to you, then.”

I fought the urge to roll my eyes. Sometimes, she acted more like a mother nagging me rather than a teacher. “I get it. I messed up, but I still won, didn’t I?”

Ivanka paused in her step. “. . .You were extremely lucky. So many things could have gone wrong. Do not make the mistake again.”

Hearing that, coupled with my frustration from her stoic expression earlier, I couldn’t help the sassy whisper that spilled out of my lips. “Whatever. It’s not like you care anyways.”

Unfortunately for me, I couldn’t even hope that Ivanka didn’t hear it since she was, after all, a fallen goddess. My eyes widened in realization. “I didn’t mean-” 

“Hm.” Her eyes gleamed once over, which scared me a bit before she stared at me, giving me a look I couldn’t quite figure out. Then, after what felt like forever, she started walking towards me, slowly with that natural confident bounce in her steps like the ground was heavenly clouds. 

She stood directly before me, peering down at me. “You are aiming for the head of perhaps, the strongest being in the realms.” 

She knelt so that she was eye-level with me before placing a hand on my knee. To say that my heart jumped out of my chest was an understatement. “I do care about you. Do you not think I advise you because I care about you?”

I blushed in defeat when looking into those sharp, gray eyes. “Okay, okay. I get it, so stop looking at me like that.”

She stood up, turning her back to me. “Great. Practice starts again in the next five minutes.”

I groaned super loud.

“How long has it been now?” I gazed upon the star-lit night, submerged in bubbling hot springwater that was at the perfect depth, and the perfect temperature. The springbath was pretty small, it’s width being only around five of me with our arms stretched, standing side to side but I much preferred the small, enclosed natural bath. 

The moon was only half-full, shining brightly, far brighter than the one on Earth, showering it’s stolen, silver glory upon the realm of the MidWorld. Since the creators didn’t really want to overdo it with the fantasy aspect, they kept the moon’s glow to silver, and it’s number to a single moon before proceeding to create god-like entities that absolutely destroy the balance of the game. Ah, such was the devs. 

Around me, there was nothing but the silence of the woods, and the occasional kiss of the winds with a couple wolven tributes to the moon but I wasn’t worried. This part of the woods was on the outer, outer edges so any monster that was around here, I could take out in my sleep. But if there were a few mishaps, and higher ranked monsters managed to stumble upon this place, the hundred-barrier would activate and repel them. After all, this was the secret bath of a fallen goddess. Yeah, I was pretty safe. 

So, how was I able to use it? Who knows, one day, I just happened upon this place and not even one of the hundred runes in the barrier activated. So, finders, keepers. I could use it as long as Ivanka didn’t find out, and at this time of the night, she was usually away to god-knows where. Another thing I found out about her, was that every crescent moon night, she always went somewhere at exactly midnight.

Eh, who cares? My back leaned against the edge of the hotspring, sighs of relief escaped my lips whenever the hot bubbles hit just right against my body.
