BXBX NOVEL Chapter 94 - Mushrooms
"So what now?" White Lotus asked as she picked up the root of life for the quest they got from the old monkey.
"We have enough time to get back to the old monkey and turn in our quest. I also want to harvest some of those glowing mushrooms since I didn\'t do so earlier. I didn\'t want to be in the middle of harvesting and get attacked. But first..." Ryu bent down and began plucking all the sweet silver grass and the glowing mushrooms from around the pond. He figured since the sweet silver grass was good for the quest, he could test to see what else it could be used for while he tested out the mushrooms.
White Lotus waited for Ryu to finally stand back up before saying: "Let\'s go!" while pushing everyone along. She was eager to get back as quickly as possible to get her cultivation method. It was just that…. "Ryu, when you said you would be harvesting some of the mushrooms, you meant…."
"Hmm?" Ryu looked up in his arms was a pile of glowing mushrooms he was putting into his inventory. To his side, Chi was covering her mouth as she smiled. She learned that when Ryu was focused on doing something, everything around him, including time, seemed to disappear as he went about his task.
They had walked for five minutes now and barely made any ground because Ryu was plucking every mushroom he saw. The area around the pond was almost completely dark if not for the glow from the pond itself. He seemed to even have scraped off some of the moss from the rocks as well. WhiteLotus looked at the clock on her HUD and felt like crying. She had to get up soon, but with the pace they were going, she would not even get a chance to leave the dungeon, never mind turning in her quest. But from the looks of it, Ryu was not going to let a single mushroom go!
An hour later….
"Finally out! But now I need to log out! Ryu, you better be able to use all those mushrooms!" WhiteLotus yelled.
Ryu scratched his nose. He felt bad because they all waited on him to pick mushrooms, and he did not even know if they would be of any use. "Ahem… If anything, I can make you some mushroom soup..."
"Haha!" Rose burst out laughing. "I have never seen such a look of helplessness on WhiteLotus\'s face before. Only Ryu can do such a thing."
WhiteLotus ignored Rose\'s remark and changed her target Chi to let out some of her frustrations. "Chi, you\'re no better! You just let Ryu do whatever he wants. If you spoil him too much, he will be a handful later on."
"What is wrong with me spoiling Ryu? He spoils me just as much. So we will both be out of control and spoiled people!" Chi huffed. Chi saw no problems letting Ryu do whatever he wanted. If he wanted to pick mushrooms, she would stand by his side and let him pick mushrooms!
"Alright, I give up. Today\'s big winner was definitely Ryu. Not only did he get a ton of crafting materials, but he also got thousands of glowing mushrooms. Alright, I\'m off before GreenHat starts trying to do weird things to me again." WhiteLotus sat down and logged out.
"Thanks for the fun. What time should we meet up later to turn in the quest?" Rose asked.
"Up to you girls. Just give Chi and me a call later, and we will work around your schedule." Ryu did not care what time they logged into the game later since after this quest was completed, he would be heading back to Roland Village to meet up with GreenHat, FingerSandwich, and the other 3 recruits to make their guild before returning to Flim village to turn in his quest for the pill cauldron.
"Okay, then see you later!" Rose waved goodbye before logging out. Violet also said goodbye and logged out as well.
It was just Ryu, and Chi left as they sat up against the old ancient tree. Chi looked at Ryu, who had leaned back and closed his eyes. "Not logging out yet?"
"Not yet." Ryu pulled Chi into his arms, hugging her gently. "I want to spend some time just like this..."
Chi smiled. Her ears were twitching, and her tail was wagging. She was very happy. Ryu buried his face into Chi\'s neck and nibbled on it lightly. This caused Chi to feel a shiver run up her spine. She closed her eyes as Ryu kissed her neck. Her breathing started to become heavy as she felt Ryu\'s hand sliding up her thigh. When his hand finally reached between her legs, a soft moan escaped her lips as his fingers began to tease her dampening lips. She bit her lip and reached up with her left arm grasping the back of Ryu\'s head as she let the pleasure take over. "Mmm… Yuki…."
Ryu lifted his head and pushed his lips against Chi\'s. Their tongues intertwined as Ryu quickened the motion of his fingers, causing Chi to push her hips up against Ryu\'s hand. Chi slid her right hand into what was left of Ryu\'s pants and grabbed hold of his dick, gently stroking it. The low level monsters gathered around and watched the strange scene of the two humans touching each other. But when they suddenly felt an oppressive force weighing down on them, they quickly scattered, leaving the dungeon entrance quiet once more except the soft moans that escaped Chi\'s lips.
20 minutes later, Chi laid snuggled in Ryu\'s chest with a big smile on her face. Ryu held her gently in his arms, wishing he could hold Chi like this in real life. But he knew they could not stay like this forever. They still needed to take care of real world things. "We should log out..."
"Mmm… Ryu, when we log out, remember that in time you will heal. So don\'t let it get to you too much, okay?" Chi could tell Ryu was not looking forward to logging out. But no matter what, they still had to go back to reality and face the truth of things. But slowly and surely, she knew Ryu would heal. It was just a matter of time.
"Mmm... I won\'t. I will be fine as long as you are by my side."
