We ran through the forest, the light from the inferno a few ters behind us giving us a clear path to follow through the dense foliage.
"If we make it through this, I'm going to hit you so hard with my tail that you'll see your ancestors!" Prixais hissed as my arm held her tight against my shoulder.
"Can't. From what I can see back in the Mortal Realm, and my suspicions have been confird when I was brought here to the Divine Realm, I'm sure that I'm the first of my kind, making my own ancestor." I rebutted, causing her to sputter at the facts thrown straight into her face. My legs were still not feeling the burn after a few minutes of running, even if I was moving more than 40 kiloters an hour.
"… Fine, be that way, smartass." Prixais grumbled as she admitted her loss in our verbal battle. This wasn't the first one during my run. In fact, I was sure this was the fourth topic we've been juggling around just to lighten the tension.
"Heh, the score's tied two-to-two." I laughed while my legs continued to carry both and Prixais away from the spreading forest fire behind us.
"Oh, shut up you… Up ahead!" Prixais scread as her senses signaled to her brain that soone was hiding behind a tree a few ters in front of them. "On the left!"
I quickly snapped my gaze towards the tree that held the figure that the lamia on my shoulder noticed. Pumping more power into my legs, I quickly jumped past the tree and saw that the figure that was hiding was the sa being he saw when they were back in the treehouse, which was now unfortunately burning to a crisp due to my hasty actions.
A few hours of work I'll never get back.
The faceless Dungeon Master tilted its head at my speeding form, and a mont later, I sped past it, not giving it a ti to make a move.
I also noticed that it didn't follow us. Instead, it stayed there and continued observing us, not minding the growing fire behind it.
"Damn… That's a creepy Dungeon Master…" Prixais comnted as she turned her gaze away from the creepy horror-franchise-cosplayer.
"Then you haven't seen anything yet." I off-handedly comnted while I continued with my running, causing her to glare at with a bit of nervousness and fear.
"… What do you an by that?"
"Oh, nothing much." I said with a shrug, causing her body to shake a bit. "Just thinking about a brain-spider the size of a car with ballistae mounted on its back."
Giving her the ntal image of another ga character that was ant to be killed by the main character over and over again over the course of the entire storyline… Which wasn't much, seeing that the main character never spoke, only grunted while he kicked ass, Prixais turned green and shook her head to get rid of the monstrosity her brain managed to conjure under this stressful situation.
"Geh… Send another one of those ntal images and I'll barf all over you." Prixais threatened with her mouth wide open, her tongue lolling out as so build-up saliva began to trickle out.
"Uh… No offense…" I stiffened, but still continued running the mont I felt the wet, slimy appendage caress my back. "But even if I can't see you, I can still feel you… And please… Don't make fucking horny right now…"
'Little John's gonna burst! Retract that [REDACTED] now!' I had to censor the word, otherwise, my little Johnny will beco big Johnny.
Prixais, hearing my blunt ssage, quickly retracted her [REDACTED] and blushed up a storm, even if I didn't see it. How could I tell? Easy, body heat. I could feel her heating up in embarrassnt.
"… We never talk about this… Understood?"
"Yes, ma'am." I'm not normally one to follow sobody's instructions, but if that gets out of another equally or worse situation, then I'll follow them just for the mont.
I continued running in silence, with Prixais using her senses to scan our surroundings for any imdiate threat. We continued like that and the fire, which was by now a raging firestorm, was far away from our position. We could only see smoke rising from where the fire is still spreading.
It was only until a few minutes later that we stopped when Prixais sensed another figure right ahead of us. I tried to make a turn, but was stopped when the figure imdiately approached us with a quick, simple step, and cupped my chin with her hands.
"My, now this is surrrprrrising." The figure purred as she stuck her finger in my mouth, brushing the tips of my teeth with her skin. "Strrrong canines, sturrrdy jaw, and a body only a hunk could match."
By this point, my brain was already fried from the sexual violation this figure… No, this woman was giving . I dropped the lamia on my shoulder to the ground due to the shock, and I'm Prixais' brain was also fried at the sight of a gorgeous, but deadly woman currently giving oral check-ups, since she didn't move an inch.
"J-Jionni… W-we need t-to run… N-now…" Prixais squeaked out as she felt the gaze of the woman bearing down on her skin. She paled and hoped that whatever awaited her in the afterlife, it wasn't hell.
"Now, now, no need to be in a rush." The woman said it cheerfully, but her face was anything but. "I'd like to take this fine piece of work off your hands, and reward you for bringing him here."
"Yes! He's all yours!" Prixais stood straight up and wasted no ti throwing under the bus the mont her life was threatened.
"Wha…!?"
"Wonderful." The woman smiled. Her beautiful features contrasted with the long claws forming on her hand. Her smile then vanished as her cold eyes bore into the shivering lamia, and with a flick of her wrist, decapitated the lamia, causing her now lifeless body to fall to the ground. "Filthy animal. If you accept an alliance, make sure you don't betray them."
She spat out, her beautiful features remaining beautiful, even with her terrifying claws slowly receding back into her hands as her smile returned in full force once she got her gaze back on mine.
"Ah! Sorry about that. Just have a bit of a problem with turncoats." The woman said cheerily, her claws nowhere to be seen, and if it wasn't for the blood staining her dress, she would've looked like a fashion model on her way for a shopping trip. "My na's Oshurkova, but you can just call Kova."
The woman, Oshurkova, put her hand out towards , a smile still gracing her lips. Now that I take a good look at her, she was dressed in a black, tight, sleeveless shirt with a brown, fur jacket covering the rest. She also wore leggings that provided no simple protection against the elents and a surprise attack.
I glanced back down at the head of Prixais, who still wore a terrified and anguished expression on her face, and back to Oshurkova.
Reluctantly, I grabbed her hand, and the two of us shook.
"… Nice to et you, Oshurkova." I montarily breathed in before greeting her with calm words. "My na is Jionni."
Kova smiled at my introduction, a tiny bit of a fang jutting out from her upper lip.
"Well t, Jion-"
"GET AVAY FROM HIM YOU HUSSY!"
A loud voice and a tiny fra slamd into Oshurkova, punting them a dozen or so ters away and into the black of night.
"… What the fuck…?" I voiced out my confusion, a bit lost, and perplexed at the sudden situation, but then ca the rage. I looked at the headless lamia for a mont, before spitting on the corpse.
"… Rot in hell…" I spat out as I discreetly made my way out of the area.. I needed to find another spot to camp.
