[BOOK II] Chapter XXIII: People Are Just Too Horny [7]

Previously 

“. . .Oh, but I could just aim at you, instead,” And, her eyes were glowing again. 

I shook my index finger. “You could do that,” I faked a confident smile. “But, I can run fast enough behind that horse, or at least near it. What do you think’s going to happen to you when all that remains of a goddess’s gift is charred ash?”

She remained quiet, contemplating. I stared her down. This was the important part that would determine whether she would call my bluff or not. Now, many of you might be wondering whether I could take the little shortie on, or not, since I had so many new offensive abilities to my arsenal now. 

The quick answer would be, no. The long answer would be, it didn’t matter how much I’d progressed in Ivanka’s domain, it still wouldn’t be enough to match an experienced triple-attributed high elf whose domain of magic was a direct counter to my martial arts/chi. After all, she would just keep blasting me with long-ranged magic and make it impossible for me to get in. And, while she wouldn’t be able to kill me instantly, in the end, it would just result in a long stale-mate. 

Which, I couldn’t afford. 

Another question would be why I didn’t just use the flying horse to fight it. Well, while Aegis may be higher in terms of realm of power, the high elf was definitely more experienced in the combat department. But, that’s besides the point since all high elves revered anything their goddess touched so I didn’t have to worry about a show-down between two strong beings.

In the end, without wanting to fight, I only really had one option I could do which did involve the flying horse. I will use it, very, very soon. I just had to distract the short elf enough for me to get on it because if she called my bluff on my speed, she would blast me quicker than I could say my own name. 

“So, what do you say?” I meandered tentatively to Aegis, and wished I had a divine stick to beat the stupid horse’s ass. “Let’s just let bygones be bygones, eh?”

“Do not play tricks with me!”

Every hair on my body stood up. The ground just inches behind me disappeared in a flash of light, and a rumble of thunder. I couldn’t even react, but I had to play it off like I did. 

With cold sweat dripping down my back, I stared confidently up at the little elf. “Oh, if that’s the speed of your attack, you’re not getting anywhere near me.”

Her aura rose up, as she prepared for a faster attack but I pointed at the flying horse munching peacefully on the grass. Stupid horse. 

“Ah-ah. Not so fast, milady,” I mock-bowed. “Do you really want to bet with the goddess’s gift on the line?”

Fayeth squeezed her hands into fists, before biting her lips hard enough to draw blood. 

Then finally, she pulled her hair in frustration. “RARGH!” The clouds darkened, and lightning crackled in the sky. 

“Oh, I should kill you!” Fayeth gritted her teeth and tried to Vader-choke me from her position. “Oh, better yet, I should rape you! Little human twinks like you know nothing but to service a good high-elven cock.”

More hair stood up on my body. I made the mistake of taking a glance at the short elf, and remembered that anger and lust were so directly connected within the high elven race, a feature they took after their creator. Trust me, I know. 

So, while the little elf was fuming and having a hard-on about how she was going to impregnate my fat arse with her young, I had made it to my lovable flying steed. 

Now, one thing you needed to know about pegasi was that they were one of the most naturally fastest creatures in the entire realms which is why the little elf frothed just from being able to stand beside Aegis. Need I remind you, their speed was so fast that the moment a baby pegasi was born, it already had enough speed to run from Texas to Nebraska in a matter of hours, hence their status as a mythical race.

Aegis was a King Pegasi. 

“Your speed’s a little limited here but you’ll do finely,” I petted my lovable pet and got on him.

Then, I whistled at Fayeth. “Hey!”

She turned to me, eyes full of confusion and wonder - wondering what I was trying to do before I saw realization dawn on her face. 

The dark clouds parted, and fiery lightning crackled down. “You son of a who-” 

“Bye, little elf!” Before the fiery lightning turned me to ash, Aegis kicked the ground and suddenly, I was out of the forest. I giggled under the afternoon sun, and thanked my own intellect for being able to live another day.

Now, then, onwards to HighTown!

***

I sat down, having a cup of coffee that was just the right amount of heat and sugar. That’s right, there was coffee in this world, and it was pretty good too. 

For the first time in a while, I felt like I could finally relax and have a good time planning my next moves. My ears perked, tuning out the sound of minstrels and bards singing downstairs and the couples that were having a massive fuckfest next doors. If I had taken down my cloak, I was pretty sure my constitution would somehow lead me to being in the center of such orgies.

It was hard, having such a nubile body and a fat arse. 

That’s right. I had reached HighTown, pretty quick in fact since it only took me like an hour to get there with Aegis’s speed. Where was Aegis? Apparently, inside my soul or something through the power of magic, or divinity to be specific. 

The little tavern room I was chilling in was pretty comfy and only cost me around 10G per night which was around 10 dollars. Luckily, Ivanka happened to. . .generously place a pouch full of Gs in my bag so I didn’t really have to worry too much about the price. Even if I had to worry though, 10G for one night was very worth it. 

I sat on my bed, putting the empty mug of coffee down and closed my eyes, zoning out from the world and entering my realm of self, which was empty but a good place to collect my thoughts. 

What powers do I hold under my arsenal?

Divinity? Check-ish.

Martial Arts/Chi? Check. 

Aegis? Check. 

Constitution Of The Maiden? Check.

Dress Of Heaven? Somewhat Check. I needed to unlock the rest of the abilities which would take quite a long time. 

I had 5 main powers under my belt right now, and while they may not be super overpowered for now, with time, I was confident I could polish them. Right now, I had to focus on a question that had been plaguing me since Ivanka’s training. 

What do I do now?

Now that I had tempered too much with the story’s timeline, I can only kiss my plan to live quietly in a remote place goodbye. My only option now was to participate in the story’s events, which begged the question; How much do I want to interfere in it?

The one and perhaps the only thing that guaranteed my survival throughout the entire forthcoming events was my knowledge of the future, and the game. For example, just with my knowledge of where the world items are, I could explore and wield them to become the strongest being in all of the myriad realms, but then like my favorite uncle said, with great power comes great responsibility.

Besides, I didn’t have the motivation to find all the 12 world items to begin with. I was very much a person who bit when bit first, and even then I’d still wonder if it would be worth the hassle. 

I snapped my fingers. My head lit up like a lightbulb.
