At first, Jake was so shocked by Medusa's human form that he didn't know how to react. He naturally ran to the clothing store to get her clothes because that was normal. After that, he left the capital as Medusa was too adorable, catching everyone's attention. He also allowed her to pick up clothes herself, and Medusa donned herself like a little princess, to say the least.
It made her stand out even more beside Jake, who still wore his battle equipment.
Jake collected his thoughts in this short frame of time.
"Congratulations on acquiring a human form, Medusa! Ender told me it's too early, so you must have worked hard for it!" Jake spoke like a proud father, patting Medusa's white hair.
Medusa nodded. "I'll help you more now, Jake! I have human hands! See! We can craft bows, arrows, and your equipment! You don't need that monkey!
I also learned a new skill to keep you safer than the wolf! My magic sense increased so much that you also don't need the eagle anymore!"
Jake tilted his head.
Ender glowered at Medusa.
Meanwhile, the little snake princess misunderstood Jake. She thought that she hadn't given him enough reasons to choose her over everyone else. In a rush, she parted her lips wide.
"I can produce much more poison now!" Medusa declared.
The golden liquid started pouring out like a waterfall as if a dam had been broken within her jaw. Medusa couldn't control it, so she closed her mouth, only for her cheeks to bulge out. She had to open her lips again to let out more poison. Otherwise, she would have choked on it.
She bawled her eyes out as she realized that she couldn't control her natural poison as well as she thought she would, tears soon mixing with the poison. She must have disappointed Jake and also dirtied her dress, meaning she was worse than she had declared to be.
Jake smiled and put his hand on her head, "Calm down. Let it out all out."
When Medusa was exhausted and could no longer produce any poison, she grew too weak to stand on her two legs. Jake quickly caught her before she hit the ground and took her onto his lap.
Ender landed on his head. "What now?"
Jake looked down, "I don't feel like leveling up or clearing the dungeon now. I might as well just leave this world and rest in the bed."
Ender nodded. "We'll sleep then. You hear that, snake?"
Jake faintly smiled. "See you later."
Logging out of the game, Jake took off his virtual reality helmet and closed his eyes. He didn't care about the sweat or how uncomfortable he felt. He also didn't recall any fun he had in the game, all because he wondered how things with Medusa would settle.
He couldn't let her go since she was a little girl. But if she were to level up, grow more and become more self-independent, he would let her go so as not to cause rifts in chemistry between everyone.
He closed his eyes and went for a nap.
Jake woke up in the evening.
He noticed that his phone had been buzzing a lot.
Looking at the notifications, he saw that his girlfriend had messaged him a lot. He was also shocked to see that many people had mentioned him on social media.
He decided to reply to his girlfriend first.
That was when he saw a picture of himself and Medusa.
Jake's jaw hit the bed. "Daughter?"
This single word had given Jake new thoughts.
A/N: I don't want to surprise anyone, so I will just say it here. The Oath Kingdom is the last arc.
