Chapter 230 Heaven-Sent Oppurtunity [3]

"Since the contents of the Primordial Undying Realm change every time it opens, I can't brief you on what you can expect to encounter. All I can say is, never lower your guard."

The duo nodded. Even without his warning, there was no way they'd take it lightly. Just the 70% death rate was enough to bring them to a state of utmost solemnity.

"Alright. I've given you an overview of the event, and I've also gotten your oaths. From my White Dragon Grotto, only the two of you are participating, so remember, don't lose face! I know you don't have any connection here and perhaps don't care about such things, but since this is an endeavor that benefits both of us, I'll naturally reward you for your help.

"As for what the rewards will be, that depends on whether or not you can make it out of the Primordial Undying Realm alone, for now, I can at most give you Chaos rank armor or weapons to help you.

The White Dragon King then took out a book that he handed to Damien. "And finally, there's this. This is the 3000 Beast Record. It is a record of all the top geniuses within the mountain range, as well as their backgrounds and general information. It is ranked based on power and achievements, so make sure to focus more on those at the top of the list.

"Now that I've given you this, there is truly nothing more I can do for you. We leave for the World Tree in 10 days, so prepare as best as you can before then."

With his final words said, the White Dragon King waved his hand, causing Damien's medallion to once again emit spatial light. Realizing what was happening, Damien quickly grabbed Ruyue before once again finding himself back within their residence.

'Damn! What an interesting turn of events!'

Now that they were out of the White Dragon King's vicinity, Damien felt his body relax. He didn't even realize he was tense until this moment.

'What an opportunity…'

Wasn't it perfect? Almost all of the problems that were troubling him were directly solved.

'Well, they'll only be solved if I can properly get my hands on that purple fruit.'

But there was no way he'd allow someone else to get it. Peak genius? He had seen plenty of those before. He had beat even more. There was no way he would let one of them claim what's his.

'And it doesn't just solve my problems, it also deals with the so-called World Tree.'

That was the second destination Damien and Ruyue wanted to visit while they were in the mountain range, and it happened to be where they were going now. It was all incredibly perfect, if one didn't consider the extremely high chance of death that the whole ordeal brought.

'10 days isn't a lot of time, but it also isn't too much time. I guess I should start by looking through that book that Senior White Dragon gave us.

It was at that moment that Damien felt a piercing pain in his side.

"Ah! What is it with you and pinching?!" He yelled as he was snapped out of his thoughts.

"Hmph!" Ruyue snorted.

Why was she mad? He was right, after all, she seemed to pinch him much more often than he'd expect to be pinched.

"Where do you think you're holding?" Ruyue said while glaring at him hatefully.

"Eh? What do you mean? I grabbed your waist didn't I?"

It was stupid. In his defense, Damien was still partially out of sorts and hadn't taken the time to look over at her yet. Also, Ruyue wasn't that much shorter than him, so looking into her eyes meant that the rest of her body wasn't in his direct periphery.

But when she mentioned it, Damien finally focused on his hand.

'This…'

Was it coincidence or did he do it subconsciously because of his desire? His hand was filled with a soft and mellow feeling that was almost heavenly.

He was so tempted to squeeze at that moment, but seeing the look on Ruyue's face, he knew that he wouldn't end up in any good situation if he did so.

In his speechless state, Damien has frozen, not removing his hand from her breast. And with the strength of his grip, Ruyue couldn't necessarily escape.

As time went on, her face became so red that it looked like she would almost explode. It was at that point that Damien finally moved his hand.

'Holy shit! This kind of thing actually happens outside of anime!'

His thoughts were erratic. The moment prior, his excitement for the upcoming event was at its peak, but now, such thoughts had been completely thrown out of his head.

That feeling…! It was amazing. Ruyue was bigger than Rose in that area, and the way they felt naturally varied. While Rose's fit perfectly in his hand, Ruyue's had too much surface area for that. As for which one was better…

'Wait wait wait, I can't go comparing like that. As the saying goes, all titties matter.' Damien thought seriously. If Rose ever found out he was comparing her breasts to another woman's…

He shuddered just thinking about it.

Meanwhile, Ruyue was also in a state of shock. She already knew her feelings, and frankly, if he wanted to touch her like that, she wouldn't necessarily mind, but it was simply too sudden…

'I wouldn't mind? What am I thinking?!'

She was startled by her own thoughts. Her embarrassment from the previous contact had made her thoughts run wild. Right, that was the reason.

She shot a glance at Damien, only to see him with a 'savoring the aftertaste' look on his face, which only made her blush more pronounced.

In this kind of atmosphere, it took the two a long time before they could rein in their individual thoughts and focus on the task at hand.

Damien sighed lightly. 'Should I just…?'

He had known how he felt about her from even before they left the sect, but at that time, he wasn't sure if she reciprocated his feelings.

Seeing how she was acting now, it was most likely the case. If such a situation happened back then, she probably would've reverted to being ice cold.

But now? Well, it was clear to see. With her pronounced blush and the way she kept stealing glances, he would be an idiot if he didn't notice her feelings. Even Rose showed fewer signs before he noticed.

But the problem was, he still wasn't sure how Rose felt about him having multiple women. And more than that, he still hadn't apologized to her for running away like that.

Before he thought about starting a second relationship, he needed to get his first one in order. Only after that would he even consider it.

But being honest, he couldn't bring himself to throw Ruyue away even if Rose refused. He was already trying to think of ways to appease her anger.

But now wasn't the time for such thoughts. He knew that, merely, the situation forced his thoughts to divert in such a direction.

Once again heaving a light sigh, Damien took out the 3000 Beast Record that the White Dragon King had given him.

'Now, let me see for myself the quality of geniuses here in this mountain range.'
