Chapter 197: Pathetic And Snivelly, The Great Beeno of Nafa

Since we started to get closer, Mex had started to whisper down to me about the Nafa. He explained about the city they all lived in and about the people themselves.

"They live in another gorge like the one the monsters were in, living near the top in caves carved into the walls. Their bodies look thin but do not let that fool you into thinking the creatures are weak. Their bone and muscle density is almost four times as much as my own," Mex explained quickly.

"Okay, is there anything that I should know before we meet them? I don't want to do something that will offend them," I said in a low voice.

"They are quite similar to us, but the roles and hormones of the males and females are reversed. For the most part, they are good, but the females can be extremely aggressive. Don't stare or ogle them, or you will get yourself in trouble!" Mex told me, and I chuckled.

"Why? Am I going to get myself more women?" I chuckled and then growled after Mex used his hand to chop the back of my head.

"Joke and laugh if you want, think that the girls are rough on you? I was in bed for three days after being nearly fucked to death! I have been with monsters of all sizes, shapes, and variety, but these women are a different breed entirely!" Mex told me.

"Three days? That is not even that bad! I have pulled muscles that have lasted longer than that!" I said but then got another chop to the back of my head.

I whipped my head back around the best I could to glare up at Mex, who was pushing another rock out of the way. Mex looked back and then gave me one of those looks I reserved for Twat's; you know, people with a bad habit of talking without a thought.

Oh, and I suppose while that was healing, you were also regrowing an arm, pelvic bone, and healed more than fifty different cracks and fractures?" Mex asked.

I turned my head back without saying anything. Yeah, only many I deserved that one, and I was being a twat, but it just was so hard to imagine a woman being that violent or intense, but I let Mex continue.

"They take that as direct interest, and then fighting is the equivalent to flirting for women. The men hate this and tend to get very emotional about it when the women smack them around. Just let me do all the talking," Mex explained, and I was trying to imagine it as we got closer.

The tripedal creatures watched us intently as the two of us emerged from the rolling plains and lowered down to the ground. We had to look extremely strange, even in a place like this that seemed to defy laws and logic in every way conceivable.

Mex hopped off my back, and I straightened myself out before landing but looked up quickly as I noticed another flash from above. That one was much lower, but I brought my attention back to Mex and the group in front of us, releasing my Elemental Aspect.

"Why have you all returned? Have you not destroyed enough already?" Asked a deep voice from behind the other Nafa.

The creature that walked out was rough, mean, one breast, pale red skin, and…. Wait, what the fuck did I just see?

The… woman breast was a single uni-boob that was wide with a single rectangular nipple and areola that looked strange, but a new strange. I was about to let my eyes go lower, but then I received a backhand from Mex that caught me entirely off guard, knocking me back.

The strike completely caught me off guard and dazed me to the point where I almost fell over as I stumbled back. Before I could catch myself, I felt a large hand on my neck, and my face was slammed to the grounds.

My temper flared, and I was about to lose it, but then Mex slammed his own head down beside mine.

"Shut the fuck up and keep your eyes on the ground, or you will have wished to monsters killed us!" Mex growled in a low and dangerous voice but then switched to something pathetic and snivelly. "Uh, umm, yes, we are very sorry! We are here alone, from a Challenger Gem! We are weak and pathetic creatures from another world, but I was in this world before and know of your might and honor! Can you please help us become stronger!"

The change was beyond weird, and it was like I was beside an entirely different person. This person must be significant or something to that degree, or Mex would not be acting like this.

"Men come to get help from a woman? What makes you think I would even consider this after the mess you left us with!" The woman growled.

"I know that we as men are beyond worthless, Great Beeno of the Nafa! Please-," Mex whined and swiveled, and I couldn't believe what I was hearing, and I started to growl, making Mex stop talking.

This was beyond stupid, and my failure with Dao plus being stuck in here started to get to me. I was not here to play around, nor was I here to start taking orders from some Queen with a sore tooth and a grudge.

Like a dried twig underfoot, I snapped.

Fire Pact, Sphinx, and Gog Totems activated, and I slapped Mex's hand back from the neck. I pushed him back from me, flames erupting from my fingertips as I stood up.

I felt the fire licking out of my eyes like Keri, and I turned to glare at the red-skinned Queen Uni-Boob. I stared directly in her strange solid jade eyes that were faceted like gems, but she gave me the same defiant look back.

[Be careful, they are not as strong as most, but there are more watching, and you will be in a fight for your life. I understand your frustration, though, and I will give you everything you need to bring this under your control. Think, and then act. Who else are you going to get help from?]
