And so, we quested.
There wasn’t much to gain from it, for , aside from personal satisfaction and getting to spend ti with the others. After all, I was already at the level cap. Even doing the quests on other classes to level them up wasn’t exactly effective since doing quests was a pathetically slow thod of leveling. Running a single dungeon would take the sa amount of ti it took to complete one of the ga’s overly long quests and reward about ten tis the total amount of experience during it, not to ntion be more engaging and offer better rewards.
Questing was very much designed with the roleplayers and lore hounds in mind. For sobody like
who didn’t really care about the ga’s plot and side stories… the quests were tedious. At their absolute best, they made
feel just a tiny bit emotional at tis, and the emotions they could make
feel were nothing when compared to the emotions I might feel from literally anything else.
I just wasn’t into story and questing in an MMORPG. All I wanted was fun dungeon combat and lots of lewd sex. Mainly the latter. Everything else was just side content that I didn’t care about unless the ga tried to force it onto , and the way that I cared about it in that regard was negative.
But it did give
sothing to do while hanging out with the others. Plus, no matter how useless the quests were for , they did give
a tiny bit of a feeling of pride and accomplishnt by clearing them out of my quest log. It was nice seeing the number of quests I had finally going down instead of sitting at the max amount possible for forever.
As for Lily and adow, they both got to level up and unlock content during it, since a decent amount of the ga’s dungeons and other special content forms were locked behind completing specific quest chains, and then there was Akorya who was having fun screwing around on classes too low leveled for where we were since she never really bothered leveling up her alternate classes.
And by screwing around, I an that she used her lower level to aggro every monster she could while running around before pulling them all back together to us.
Gas always did that. Players above monsters’ level would get ignored by the monsters while players under the monsters’ level would grab their attention way more easily.
That was what Akorya too advantage of to cause trouble for us. She always did it whenever I wasn’t looking and while I was on my lower-level classes, too. She knew that I could wreck the mobs if she did it while I was on my higher-level classes, so she waited until I was switched back onto a lower-level one and not paying attention.
The resulting chaos was us getting sward by monsters and having to actually try our hardest to kill them.
Honestly, it was fun. Akorya’s attempts at causing chaos made the day more exciting and helped to make questing more interesting. It also gave
sothing to threaten punishnt for. Of course, the more I threatened to punish her for causing us trouble, the more motivated she was to cause said trouble.
But what was the point in threatening punishnt if not trying to entice the person into doing sothing that earns punishnt?
It was a win-win for everybody involved. Well, maybe except for Lily and adow who struggled to keep up with the chaos. Lily especially. Given that she was a healer, she was the one responsible for keeping us alive, and she had to desperately heal us to do that as a result of Akorya’s actions. adow, anwhile, struggled to know who she was supposed to focus on and what to do when going up against as many enemies as Akorya would aggro.
It was probably good training for both of them. Lily got to learn how to heal under stress a bit more and adow got to learn when to prioritize AoE abilities and when to prioritize single target abilities. In many cases, AoE skills were worthless when up against just two or three enemies. Single target abilities usually did more total damage at that point. It was only really when going up against four or more enemies that AoE abilities ca out on top since, at that point, they did more total damage than the single target ones. In a similar light, Lily learned about when to prioritize group healing or single target healing. None of us were on a dedicated tank class, unless I caught on to Akorya misbehaving and managed to switch to my main class before she could pull
into combat, so the aggro was spread out across us which resulted in all of us taking so damage.
But more importantly, Lily learned sothing even better.
She learned when to DPS and when to heal.
No matter how long MMOs existed for, people still always argued about whether or not healers should be pure healers or if they should be expected to do DPS, too. As far as most developers were concerned, healers were expected to deal damage as well and balanced endga encounters around that fact. Even if healers contributed the least to a group’s total damage output, they still often contributed enough to avoid rage tirs and the like.
So, I made sure to instruct Lily to try and hold back on the healing until we were below half our total health, and then to spam a few AoE heals until we were all back up to a decent amount.
Lily was the kind of girl who just wanted to focus on healing and not have to worry about doing damage, but she was also the kind of girl who wanted to do her best and not feel like she was holding anybody back. Just focusing on healing ant that there was downti where we were fighting and she was standing around doing nothing or keeping us capped off by over-healing us, so I started the process of changing what it ant to be a healer for her.
Healers were damage dealers first and foremost who only healed when the party needed it. They were DPS with a side of healing.
Even just thinking that would probably cause countless healers to co for my head. That was why I never bothered making videos talking about ga chanics outside of lewd ones.
Pissed off gars arguing about intended chanics and individual choices were even more annoying than the people who tried to ruin my career whenever I said sothing in a slightly offensive way.
Overall, though, it was a fun day of spending ti together and clearing out my quest log.
In total, I managed to finish… sixty out of the hundred quests I had accepted, I accepted another thirty since completing so unlocked others, and then having room in my quest log allowed other quests to be visible again which resulted in
accepting enough quests to have a completely filled log again by the end of the day.
I rembered why I had issues with quests in the first place and why I never bothered going through them.
I hated seeing those exclamation marks above NPCs’ heads. I had a compulsive desire to get rid of them, and the easiest way of getting rid of them was by simply accepting the quests. Once they were accepted, I didn’t need to actually do them. And once my quest log was full, I wouldn’t be able to see any more new, potential quests at all. And all of this led to
simply never doing quests because no matter how many I did, there were always more, resulting in
ending up in the exact sa position that I started in since I didn’t like questing for the sake of questing enough to ever complete them all.
“I’m never going to be free,” I said, sighing with adow at my side atop the grassy hill we were standing on. anwhile, Lily and Akorya were setting up a picnic blanket up ahead. Lily had the idea of having a picnic once we were done grinding quests for the day, so it was ti for that.
“Maybe… you should do that one quest you want without worrying about all the others?” adow suggested. It was a good suggestion, honestly, and one that I probably should have just gone for in the first place rather than hopelessly try to go through the rest of the quests first.
“I know. I think I will. The problem is that… it doesn’t exactly tell
anything specific to do. All the objective lists is proving my worth to beco a champion of Lust. So, I don’t know what I’m supposed to do. I’ve gotten so more sex-based achievents, I’ve broken a few records, and I have a dungeon dedicated to sex which is growing more and more popular. But the quest objective has never been updated. I know my one friend, Sophie—she’s Gluttony’s chosen champion. She basically told
all I have to do, probably, is a bunch of sex stuff until the quest updates and gives
a more specific questline to follow. But it’s been a while and nothing has happened.”
adow looked up at
and blinked a few tis before saying, “One mont!” Before I could react, she said, “Done! I found out what you have to do.”
“You—you can do that?”
“I have access to almost everything. Actually doing anything inside of the system would make it too obvious I’m here, but just looking at it is no problem! Do you want
to tell you what you have to do?”
I thought about that for a few seconds. On one hand, I wanted to accomplish it on my own without any cheating. Getting knowledge from her about what I had to do to complete a hidden objective, which wasn’t known to anybody and could only be obtained via non-intentional ans, was basically cheating.
But I also wanted to get it over with.
“Tell
what I have to do for the current step… but don’t tell
what I have to do after it,” I answered. “I only want to know the part I’m stuck on. If I end up stuck on the next part, I’ll ask for help again.”
“Got it!” adow replied. “Okay. So, for this part, you already t all the requirents except for two.”
“And those are?”
“You have to… umm… you have to… well… Alyxandria of the Crimson Court and the Lost Queen of Futanaria, Aria. You have to… you know, make them submit. In a lewd way.”
“I have to fuck them into submission?”
adow blushed a bit and nodded.
If that was all I had to do, then things just got a lot clearer. But at the sa ti… they also got far, far harder.
Alyxandria of the Crimson Court was an endga raid boss. She was also a giant dragon. Not a dragon monster girl or anything like that, but an actual dragon. The kind of dragon where one of her claws was bigger than my entire body. I… didn’t even know that she could be fucked into submission given the massive size difference there. I was going to have to figure out so incredible tactic to make her cum over and over until she was defeated.
And then there was Aria, more commonly known by players as “Queen Futa.” And that nickna of hers was then shortened to the inevitable… “QueeF.” But nickna aside, defeating her would be far easier. She was just the last boss of an endga dungeon rather than a raid, and she was actually human sized unlike Alyxandria.
So, I had to fuck a dragon and a futa.
Fucking a dragon and futa into submission were all that were standing between
and the next phase of the quest.
I just had no idea how I was going to defeat the dragon. She was old content, so any casual max level player already had gear that was a higher item level than what was needed to defeat her before, so actually reaching her with a group wouldn’t be difficult at all. It was just the fucking her into submission part that was going to be hard.
Unless…
“I’m going to need Wally and Sophie for this,” I said. “With their help, I think I know how I might be able to fuck a dragon into submission.”
“A dragon, eh?” a familiar, but different voice asked from behind. Honestly, hearing the voice made
jump a little. It was the voice of an older man, and there wasn’t supposed to be an older man around us.
And when I turned around to see who it was, it was that sa old man I sat in the city with before. The cool, old guy who had his own harem of girls and boys probably too young for him obsessed with him.
“Fred?” I asked.
“You rembered! Good on you, boy,” Fred replied.
“Where the heck did you co from?”
“Ah, well, was gathering so iron down there. One of my boys is trying to level up his blacksmithing and I’m too cheap to buy the iron from the market for him, so thought I would mine it myself. Saw a familiar face up here, so thought I would co say hi. Now, what’s this about fucking a dragon?”
“Well, nice to see you again, as random as this is.” While I talked to him, adow tucked herself away behind my back, only poking her head out from behind
to look at Fred. anwhile, Lily and Akorya were apparently busy making out on top of the picnic blanket they set up. That usually happened whenever I left them alone for more than five seconds. “And yeah. I have to go fuck Alyxandria into submission.”
“Ooh. Going to be Lust’s champion, eh?”
“You—you know about that?”
“Aye. Did that questline myself. Made it to the final step then dropped the quest. Figured that role would be wasted on sobody like . Better to let sobody younger have it.”
I blinked a few tis when I heard that. I already respected the old man, but I respected him even more after hearing that.
I also felt about ninety percent less special than I did for having the Lust’s champion questline seeing as how sobody else apparently already had it and basically finished it.
“Now, I know that dragon’s weak spots,” Fred continued. “I can tell you everything you need to know to make her squirm for you. She might be a big lady, but she’s as sensitive as any of them.”
I wanted Fred to be my grandpa.
