Chapter 56 56 - Past
Ryan spent two straight days having sex with the girls in his harem. The pleasure and experience of those days were invigorating. The moans echoed through the walls and windows of Ryan's house, which horrified most of the neighbors.
On Sunday evening, the five girls said their goodbyes, each of them going on to her own home. There was a very solid reason for this, he needed to rest as much as possible in order to have a good duel the next day. With that, a good night's sleep without interruptions would be ideal.
Now, alone again in his bed, Ryan was planning a strategy for the next day.
"I can't use any demonic skills..." He said.
<Why not? Wouldn't it be easier if you just activated your demon form and defeated it like it was with those bosses?
"That would draw too much attention, since I'll only be able to rely on the girls' abilities" He said, as he lay back down.
Ryan's eyes slowly closed as sleep overtook him. Embraced by fatigue, he slept relatively early. As he slept, Nyx remained awake, looking at her master.
'You are very interesting...' she thought.
Getting up and looking out the window, that succubus seemed to have a reflective face, as if something was still troubling her mind. Tears began to stream from her face, she was trying hard to dry them, but they didn't seem to have any effect.
I wonder how Crystaldrift is doing. I wonder how Royalguard, GyoVillage, Redshift...' There were so many places Nyx had traversed on her journey alone, an uncountable amount of villages, cities and kingdoms.
*
The village of Crystaldrift was an ordinary busy village, due to the discovery of crystals in the mountains, that village started to receive a considerable number of new visitors. Every day, someone appeared in that region with a dream, either to get rich by mining or to get rich by trading the crystals.
For these reasons it was relatively common to find several outsiders in the area. Some were strong, sturdy men, carrying gigantic, shining, pointed swords. Others were elves with pointed ears and wooden bows.
But one day, a different presence appeared in that village. The queen of darkness, the daughter of the lord of the nether world. A girl with white hair and black horns, red eyes and torn clothes. With a hood over her head, this young girl was running from one side of the village to the other, looking for food and crystal residue.
She never answered a single word of what was asked of her, in fact, most of the time she didn't even look back. Always hiding with her cap and looking intently at the ground, she kept trying to create as few connections as possible.
"Can't you talk? Did a lizard tear out your tongue?" A woman said, as she held out a piece of bread to the girl.
The woman was a little fat, but still had a youthful appearance. She was strong and had some muscles on her arms. The woman's smile was awkward, a little yellowish, but still gentle. She had short hair and her clothes looked like those of a cook. She was wearing a white apron over a light brown dress, the same color as her hair.
The young girl quickly took the bread, with both hands, she pulled out that piece and took it directly to her mouth.
"Hahahah! You really are energetic girl!" Said the woman.
The girl just nodded, as if agreeing and thanking him.
* ROOOOAAAARRR *
A roaring-like sound appeared amidst the two, but it was only the hungry girl's belly.
"Hmm... You look about sixteen already, don't you want to work with me at the bakery?" Said the gentle woman.
The girl just shook her head, denying it. After that she took off running. With a quick jump, the girl hit one of her feet on the wall of the building and climbed to the ceiling. Running between the gutters, that hooded girl just nodded in thanks.
A few days later.
Once again, the young girl with white hair was strolling through the forest. This time, with a different objective. She wanted to collect as many mushrooms as she could find, after a vast season of rain, the weather was prone to this quest. The Superior Rabbits were eventually causing most of the animals that could eat the mushrooms in the mountains to lie far away, so if she didn't harm those creatures, she could easily walk through those rabbits' territory and collect the mushrooms freely.
"Hoo... nyukat hachiri kryuparadi" The girl said, as she knelt down to collect a bright white mushroom.
Behind her, a familiar figure emerged.
"Hohohoho, you have a beautiful voice girl. But, what dialect is that?" The voice was from that kind woman who had offered the piece of bread.
The girl was startled, getting up and walking away quickly. Looking down, she realized that she had stepped on the mushroom she was going to collect, the girl's face then made an expression of remorse, as if disappointed.
"I was speaking an Eastern dialect" The girl said, in a low voice. It was a lie, she was speaking the demonic language.
"Hohohoho! So you can speak it! Good to know! Come here, I've already collected some of the glowing mushrooms. You can have some" The girl said, as she walked back the way she had come.
The girl followed with slow steps, she was afraid to receive help and to approach this kind woman. Taking a deep breath and building up courage, the white-haired girl followed the kind woman until she noticed a large basket of mushrooms.
Next to that basket were two more, all of them complete. In one of them was a pile of bright white mushrooms, in another, several brown mushrooms, in the other, a mixture of purple and blue mushrooms.
"Tonight we're going to make a mana soup. Why don't you come along? We serve free food to pretty little faces like yours!" The woman said, with a smile.
Then that kind woman reached down and picked up a handful of glowing mushrooms.
Holding out her hand to the girl, that woman made a confused face. Her eyebrows were tensed and her eyes went down from low to high on the girl, until the gentle woman crossed her arms in confusion.
"I didn't tell you my name! I'm sorry! You can call me Mama!" She said, letting out a laugh.
Then other girls came up, approaching with more baskets full of mushrooms.
"Mama, we got some oranges near the rabbit tree," said a black-haired elf girl.
"Mama Holga! Mama Holga! and on the other side! there's a giant one, it had almost your size, but it was really close to the rabbit poop pile" A small girl said.
Watching that group, the white-haired girl gave a smile.
"You can accept my help, girl. But first, what is your name?" Holga said, with a warm smile.
The white-haired girl then pulled up her hood as if she was embarrassed and looking down, she said.
"Nyx"
