Chapter 66: First Mission (2)
"Why did you refuse her? Wouldn\'t it be better for you to build an experience? And… you can test yourself," Seraphina asked Hunter a few questions despite her finding sex repulsive.
It was her trying to socialize, fixing the blatant mistakes.
Which she hadn\'t done for the first time. Just yesterday, when Hunter had explained the reason she had to personally meet with the merchant, Seraphina decided to be blunt with her flaws and speak with them…
She did that when Hunter was playing with three pussies — the cats she was feeding.
Although Hunter hadn\'t shared with her that he figured it was better to ask in person the merchant about the lift because it was something his parents from Earth were often doing as company bosses, he explained the reasoning in more detail, which was highly influenced by his impressions and conclusions.
And now she was asking other questions to fix her lack of social experience.
"Sex with her has no opportunities," Hunter said with a flat expression.
Aimee slapped his head and rebuked him, "Explain it properly!"
"Alright, alright!" Hunter rubbed the spot she hit him on the head and went into the details of his reasoning, "She\'s just a merchant! One that builds her loyalty through sex, at that! I saw that everyone working for her is younger than her, so I believe I\'m right in my assessment! Look, I don\'t discriminate! If she likes that, then go ahead! Just don\'t force me to be a part of it! You see, Seraphina, to demonstrate that I am not a discriminating man, I\'ll give you this arousing example! If there\'s a sandwich of a strong and influential mother-daughter pair seducing me, then I\'m in without asking! No discrimination, after all! We are all the same! Strong and influential is the key here! It has to be that! Why? Because I want opportunities, not an empty development!"
"You could have spared us from that example and your opportunities," Aimee eyed her boyfriend from head to toe, "We already know you\'re looking out for that."
Seraphina nodded and asked Hunter another question, "So number of partners doesn\'t matter to you?"
"It does! If it\'s this big, I\'m staying away from the pussy! But no man should ever look at a woman differently just because she had one or two men before! Which means I\'m all in for various opportunities."
An interesting glint appeared in Seraphina\'s dark eyes, "So you would steal a woman from someone?"
"Why not? If my heart tells me to go for it, I go. And if I manage to steal a woman, it means the relationship was shit to begin with. Love is not just sex, anyway! You can craft so much more. A well-crafted relationship will fend off all! Even that demon\'s lust-related skills! What was his name? We learned about it in the newbie course."
"Asmodeus," Aimee whispered.
"Indeed, that cunt Asmodeus. Real love nurtured by a properly crafted relationship should fend off even that demon\'s lustful skills, not giving him a chance to easily rewrite the feelings! So yeah! That\'s it," Hunter nodded a few times, quite satisfied with his own view despite having basically no experience yet.
And his crafting table of relationships didn\'t have many items to craft with yet as well.
But with proper principles, proper women shall follow.
Yet, something that Hunter and Aimee hadn\'t expected occurred.
Trembling with her dark eyes holding back tears, Seraphina whispered another question, "What if… Asmodeus kills a man, and that translates to that man\'s woman losing her mind?"
A heavy silence ensued in the fifth carriage.
It was such a severe question that Aimee didn\'t dare to carelessly say anything.
Even Hunter was sitting mute, hovering his eyes on Seraphina\'s face, on which he could see hints of her tragedy.
\'Her father… died… and two sisters haven\'t been working together for a long time… Seraphina even said she can\'t meet Miss Charlotte yet… so is Asmodeus an enemy of Miss Charlotte and Seraphina? Wait, a demon of lust and her finding the sex repulsive… I see… I must be on the correct track… so Asmodeus, we\'re enemies. I\'ll hunt you down.\'
Keeping that to himself, Hunter decided to answer her questions, as keeping her unanswered would hurt her more.
"If a woman lost her mind because of her man\'s death, it means their feelings were too precious, and she couldn\'t see the world the same without him… it\'s complicated, and no one can properly read such feelings. Every case is unique… but I can only respect such a woman."
"…"
-
"Everyone\'s been silent because of me…" Seraphina whispered after her feelings subsided, "I\'m sorry."
Aimee shook her head, "No need to apologize. Humans hurt by demons never have it easy… a lot never return to their old selves… and it impacts their relatives. Everything changes… against their will, too. Your tears suggest that you\'ve been through that… and yet, you are here with a kind soul that my boyfriend likes and already flaunts to others. You\'re a strong woman, and I want to be friends with you."
Hunter inwardly seethed, \'She stole all the words I wanted to say!\'
Noticing his gaze, Aimee tilted her head and snickered at him.
Hunter trembled from a rare genuine anger before harrumphing and smiling at the crimson-haired woman warmly.
At last, Seraphina faintly smiled and nodded, "I want to be friends with you too, Aimee."
Inwardly, Hunter felt becoming smaller! If he does nothing here, he will miss tons of progress!
Yet, Aimee and Seraphina didn\'t give him a chance.
And as Seraphina asked this question, Hunter was forced to sit by and listen.
"You seem to accept being a part of a harem, Aimee. Why is it so easy for you?" Seraphina continued with her social questions, with no thoughts of demons or her past dwelling in her little head.
Aimee sneered and began the performance, "Opportunities! So many opportunities! Once again, opportunities!"
Her teeth sparkled, making Hunter look at her with widened eyes and red cheeks!
"In all seriousness," Aimee returned to herself and explained, "It comes from experience. My mother holds all reins in my family and has a harem of various noble men, connecting herself to other royal families. She\'s callous and clever, topping it out with her immense strength. All of that allows her to do whatever she wants and sometimes even force blood ties with other royal families, siphoning their assets after the marriage. Strength enables her that… so if my strong boyfriend\'s desire is to have a harem of influential and powerful women, it\'s my duty as a woman who has taken a liking to him to turn a blind eye to it and stay consistent to have more of him for myself."
"Aimee!" Hunter nearly burst out crying! "It was fate to meet you before the yearly exam!"
Seraphina whispered in amazement, "It sounds so hard, though."
"It\'s difficult because this guy has no clear goal. At least I\'m not aware of it because of his stupid secrets. How could I even fall to his pretty words? It should be the other way around! Sigh…"
"I shall share a secret with you guys now!" Hunter beamed in a good mood. "I… I can\'t sleep!"
A silence unfurled for a few seconds before Aimee punched Hunter\'s face.
"It\'s just insomnia, isn\'t it?! Don\'t you dare to disappoint me like that again! Your secrets should be meaningful and crucial! Insomnia or some other women you have on your side are nothing compared to what you hide in yourself, you idiot! If you can\'t sleep at night, just tell me, and I will stay with you a little longer before going to sleep myself! If you have a casual woman or someone equal to my status or even someone more famous or influential, just say it so I can know about it and leverage her status or name if I need something! Connections go both ways in the harem! Understood?! Don\'t make insignificant things like that a secret while you have something really precious within you, and I know nothing about it!" Aimee exclaimed…
Hunter was dazed for a moment before he whispered… "I don\'t have to eat… or take a dump…"
"Sounds convenient for our occupation." Aimee casually commented.
"Don\'t you think I am a monster… or not a human?" Hunter asked in a daze.
"Beast Domination\'s women are closer to a monster than you are," Aimee coolly replied.
At that moment, Hunter couldn\'t stop himself from lurching at her, taking her into a tight embrace.
"You make me like you more and more, Aimee! You can look forward to our first mission! What I told you about… will excite you!"
-
A few hours later, it was night.
A full moon night…
Wolves howled… bats fluttered their wings… and spirits contracted with humans surrounding a circle of five carriages resting after a day of their first voyage.
Everyone was inside the carriages, with the first one shaking due to bouncy activities….
At last, Hunter peeked outside, only to be bewildered by the dense fog, which still couldn\'t obscure the red moon hanging above them.
Just those two things alone were enough to tell him that someone had their eyes on them… that someone locked them in the forest by the road, keeping them away from the rest of the world.
Recalling the words of the purple-black-haired spirit within his world, Hunter muttered to himself, "World Order."
People who wanted the world to stay the same had finally announced their presence to him, wanting to ensure Hunter would never ever reach a level equal to people like Celestia.
A level threatening the world\'s order.
