I'm a Stingray?

Chapter 338: A deal, that would bound the masses towards a truce.

"What can we possibly give you?" Timothy questioned.

For once he didn't aim to be sassy, but was just utterly confused instead. This fish almost seemed like a descended god, so the hero doubted that a shrimp for a snack would do the trick.

"Ah well look how fate meets with opportunity, lucky souls you two are and so am I." The darkened fish recited.

Before the hero could have said anything stupid, Dana decided to take charge of this portion of the conversation.

Shortly she questioned, "Can you tell us what you mean?"

"You seek the source, correct?" The other questioned just to remind.

To that the couple of stingrays simply nodded, they wholeheartedly agreed.

The void's tone thickened deeper as it described, "I can tell you where to find the source, but you shall aid me with a light task to show your gratitude."

"Of course..." The hero criticised with a mumble.

And then Dana instantly cooperated, "What can we do to help you?"

"The gates have been unsealed, yes? But that only came with many problematic blessings for my kind..." At this point it seemed like the main topic was avoided.

But questions could not be asked as the void simply continued, "The very slime that feeds and gives life to civilisations upon civilisations, has met with a halt."

"Why did that happen?" The stingray lady questioned after she put quite some effort to catch up.

Slowly but surely the other described, "Earthquakes... there were a mouthful of rumbles once the gate was blown up, and that has clogged our channel."

Before a proper deal could have been made, the young man decided to intervene in the conversation once more, because he made a staggering realization!

He impatiently questioned, "So you're the one who makes tar?"

"If you mean my holy slime... then yes, I am indeed the creator along with tens of my kind." The void assured.

Although he could feel a strong gaze from the lady, the hero still continued. "Does this slime puke out to the outside world?"

"Indeed... every excess slime blesses your wretched world with grand healing properties." The dark creature described.

After that point the hero figured a lot of things out. He guessed that this slime erupted somewhere deep under the sea.

With that considered, he figured that an illuminous enemy sect from the close past, had somehow used this slime for their purposes.

That was why he decided to point out, "Your slime is stolen by others, lord spooky fish."

Before that expression could have been comprehended as either sarcastic or serious, the young man continued.

"A sect is adding some weird ass bricks and balls to your slime. And they're making these small pools which brainwash and mutate other fish." He informed.

And then expected an explosion of anger from the other, as it had quite a few reasons to be pissed off at the moment.

But yet this creature didn't seem to have emotions at all. It wasn't either happy or sad, but maintained extreme neutrality instead.

It's tone was deep like that of any true void's, it simply did not budge.

"So our healing slime has eventually been corrupted by the outside world... we expected that quite long ago." It softly revealed.

And then it guaranteed, "But since this so-called sect is proving troublesome to you, then perhaps there's an extra gift I can give to you. That is, if you prove of aid to me now?"

"We will help you," Timmy assured.

And then instantly questioned out of curiosity, "What's this gift you were talking about?"

"If you help clear our canals, me and my kind will be bound to reduce our slime to the outside world." The void assured.

"And you will tell us where the source is?" Dana moved in the conversation again, just for the sake of efficiency.

"Indeed," The other assured.

"Okay done deal." The hero agreed hurriedly.

He was simply filled with bliss. Because if the enemy holy-tar sect actually corrupted this healthy slime, then a sudden halt in supply would give them a devastating blow.

By now he was sure that the same sect had not destroyed the reef above their heads, but an effort like this would assure that they could not deliver an equal blow in the future.

Just before he could celebrate thoroughly, this dark infinity-shaped void reminded them of the deal they made a moment ago.

And didn't shy away from the details, "You shall now enter our slime canals and must use a special soul technique to unclog them."

"Soul what now?" Dana questioned.

At this point she became sceptical, and thought that they had made a deal of which had no lively return.

That was why she continued to pressure, "What are you going to do with our souls?"

Oblivious to the light scold, this void used its soothing tone to bless the couple of stingrays with more details.

"Me and all the members of my tribe, will send their soul energy towards you two." The other revealed.

And then weighed in, "Once this energy is merged with the slime's assertive properties, it will create a cleansing remedy that will force the canals to clean up."

"But...?" Timothy helped the other keep on track, as he noticed there was more to this.

The same infinity-shaped fish described, "The souls of you two brave creatures, will momentarily bind to push our effort forward. The willpower you two carry is beyond grand, there wouldn't be better candidates who could prove of aid to us."

And it sensed that there were hints of scepticism within the couple of stingrays, so it added another detail before any other questions could have been asked.

"This soul binding technique will require an extreme amount of intimacy from the both of you, otherwise all efforts will go in vain." The odd creature described casually.

Although Timothy practically hated this situation, he couldn't help but to unleash his sarcastic side towards the dilemma.

For that matter he expressed, "So I will lose my virginity while dipped in slime... what a perfect first-time for everything."

After it sensed this misunderstanding, the void instantly corrected. "There's no such fate with soul binding, believe me."

Dana caught up with what the actual topic was, and she instantly synced towards unbearable levels of embarrassment.

Sure this idea of intimacy sounded great in her head, but this opportunity seemed like it came out of the blue, it caught her off-guard.

So she couldn't really say anything, her mouth simply shivered in embarrassment.

As for biological restrictions, the couple of stingrays were both old enough already. Dana was just ten days younger in comparison.

The void insisted that virginity wouldn't be lost either, but if fate led towards that direction, both of them would at least be bodily ready to embrace the dilemma!
