Natasha the Halve 145 – Upgrades, people. Upgrades

The pleasant dream of killing and eating Demons occupied my sleep once more. Gore, pain, and brutal animal-like rage.

A sigh escaped my lips once I woke up, and I checked my species information.

Halve Species.

-As a being born of E'er, you are most sensitive to it, and efficient with it.

-The E'er at your disposal won't decrease unless you allow it. Additionally, choosing to stay awake spends a variable amount of E'er a day until proper rest.

-Sleep restores your body, mind, and spirit with great efficiency.

-Your body is forged by the energy of the world; your hair, fingernails, and teeth cannot break or be cut.

-Stamina expenditure is reduced to the lowest limit.

-Few and far between, you are a female with male genitalia. Enjoy it! [Your reproductive cycle has yet to arrive]

-You are the existence evolution strives to achieve.

-Forest is your ho and your peace.

-Sunlight shall heighten your beauty.

I guess the dreams will never drive insane, I ventured. That's a relief.

Next to , Alyssa and Lapia were entangled in a hug with my right arm between them. On top of , Yolin was facing up and snoring. Pokora was hugging her torso and had her face glued to her abs while sleeping.

I took a deep breath.

Both rose along with my chest.

I quietly laughed at how silly it looked, then did my best to disentangle without waking the four up.

Sleep is a sacred thing, after all.

It took fifteen minutes, and when I managed to free myself I went to the restroom.

Unlike the places we had stayed at so far, the room only had a toilet and a sink.

After that, I sat down at the table and retrieved the Mythical quality bow from my storage.

[ 100 La'khazh, String of the World Tree (Mythical) {Ascension Lvl 10}]

(Elastic Energy to Kinetic Energy SSS ) (Durability SS )

*Reduces Toughness by weakening E'eral bonds.

-STR 250 (Transmutation)

-CON 250 (Transmutation)

I arched an eyebrow. Weakening E'eral bonds? What in the ever-living fuck does that actually an? I humd in annoyance. String of the World Tree... At least that's the sa as in the ga. I squinted my eyes at the bow and bit my lower lip. Is it ... or is every weapon besides my spear better than the original?

After a few minutes of brainstorming, I arrived at a few more questions.

Could this bow easily kill , then? I'm made of E'er, after all. Is it for all matter since E'er is in everything? It being a curse implies it only works on living beings, no? Can a Golem be cursed?Are the Cursed Ones immune to curses? Lapia and Alyssa said undead creatures belong in that group... So many questions and so much information, but so little ti. I can't learn everything in less than three months, unfortunately. Is that why Desseyr went to learn from the Elves? That cheeky fucker took a vacation right at the start. Did they all take ti to learn before moving around? But the pull is irresistible, though.

A sigh left and I stored the weapon.

If only Yugulari went about their insurrection properly instead of employing a Demon to ntally rape Gordon, I lanted in my mind. What a complete shitshow.

Rustling ca from the bed, and Pokora slowly sat up.

“Morning,” I greeted her with a nod.

“Wassup?” she muttered and rubbed her eyes while yawning.

“Slept good?” I asked and produced a bottle of water, then drank a little.

She took a long breath and let out a sigh. “Like a baby,” she chuckled. “Last night was wild.”

I smiled and nodded a few tis. “That's how we roll every night,” I inford her.

“Uff,” the Elf breathed out in disbelief and got out of bed, then went into the restroom.

I drumd my fingers on the table while thinking about stuff.

Pokora ca out of the bathroom and walked to the table, then stood there.

I looked at her and puckered my lips, then blew so kisses her way. “No good morning kiss?” I joked.

The woman closed the distance and gave a quick peck on the lips.

I wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her close. “That's the good stuff,” I chuckled.

Her cheeks reddened and a smile ford on her face.

“Here,” I suggested, patting my lap. “I have sothing for you.”

Pokora's eyes squinted, but she complied and sat on my legs. “So demanding,” she giggled.

I retrieved the bow and offered it to her. “Now that we're girlfriends, I'll take better care of you,” I told her. “I'm your... daddy, after all, right?” I teased with a smirk.

She closed her eyes and her face turned red as a tomato. “That's only when we're having sex,” she argued and opened her eyes, looking at . “I get too horny and don't think too deply about what I say.”

“Got it,” I agreed, placing the bow on her lap. “Check it out and tell if you think it's good,” I suggested.

Pokora took the weapon and her eyes widened. “Holy fuck!” she hissed. “This is ntal!”

While she appraised the bow, I used a finger to move one of her long ears around.

She clicked her tongue and slapped my hand.

What can I say... teasing Elves is fun.
