Chapter 91- Grace Story
Dave acted like he didn't know what happened, but Grace suddenly attacked him with a punch.
Boom!
Dave dodges but he can feel the energy of death coming from her. He didn't know why he attacked him but so he was confused about her actions.
Grace smiled and went to sit on the bed and said, "I knew my intuition never got wrong, who are you? And what are you planning on coming here?"
Dave realized that she had been testing him, so Dave smirked, and he didn't want to continue acting. "Well, you are the first ever to see my disguise, how did you know?"
Grace looked at him and answered, "I have the power of death and I can see every life force of people I saw. Your life force didn't belong to my butterfly race"
Dave was stunned as he didn't expect that his concealment had this flaw. "System, how can I remove that flaw?"
[Answering the host, leveling up your concealment skills, or comprehending Life-or-Death magic.]
The system answered him straightforwardly and Dave knew that it was his only way. Life and Death magic can be considered supreme magic as they are hard to learn.
Dave smirked and removed his disguise. This look came back to its original form and Grace can't help but be in a daze as she never thought that he was more handsome in his original form.
Dave saw this but he was used to it and asked, "You already know that I am not from the butterfly race but why do you only say it when I am alone with you?"
Grace saw his doubts and answered him, "Well you know, I have a feeling that you can help me in my predicament, so I brought you here. I also feel that you have never been afraid even when I discovered you, so I knew you had some trump cards."
Dave was amazed at how good the intuition of a woman is. Dave asked, "What do you need from me?"
Grace answered, "You know, I hate the system of my butterfly kingdom and I wanted to leave this place. This place is like a cage for me as my dream is to roam the world. I secretly went out when I was a kid to travel to many places and many of my clanmates were looking for me. They never found me in 10 years as I went to many places and met many friends of different races. My life was put at stake many times but I always survived."
Grace paused and continued, "Later on, when I was traveling in the wild with my friends, we encountered a cave, and we went inside. I and my friends were astonished because we were transported to a secret realm, and we heard a voice that this is the trial cave of the Goddess of Death."
"We were shocked, and my friend and I were excited as we knew that there may be treasures. We didn't expect that the way to win the trial is to kill each other and the sole survivor can get all the rewards."
"My friend's minds were now filled with greed, and they forgot our friendship for the treasure, and they started to kill each other. I didn't have a choice as I can only kill them to defend myself."
"The fight continues for 3 days until I am the only one remaining. My body at that time was full of wounds, and I was near the brink of death, but I heard a voice in my head that I won the trial, and I will be chosen as a hero of Goddess of Death."
"The voice said that I must serve the goddess of death and I need to kill many people to become stronger. I didn't like to be controlled, that's why I left my kingdom, but I didn't expect that in the end, I was still controlled by others."
She sighed as she looked at the handsome face of Dave and continued, "In the end, I choose to go back to my kingdom because I don't want to kill people and I just want to travel around the world. I thought that I could just become an ordinary queen who can continue the tradition, but I saw you and I trust my instinct that you can help me in my predicament."
Dave was shocked by her story. He knew that she couldn't lie to him as he had the <<Eye of Truth>>.
"I can remove the control of the Goddess of Death blessing from you, but I don't know if you can accept the process."
"You must also help me to reach the Mermaid empire"
Grace's eyes lit up as she finally saw hope and asked how he could help her.
Dave smirked and replied, "Well we need to have sex"
Grace's eyes suddenly become cold, but Dave shrugged his shoulder and said, "I won't lie to you, but it is the only way"
Grace's eyes were full of doubt, but she really doesn't want to be controlled by others and she didn't have a choice right now. "Okay I can help you to go to the mermaid empire as I already go there before"
"I hope you are not fooling me or I will fight you to death"
Dave smiled and assured her, "Don't worry I will be gentle"
